other passengers in 1st class
This wasn't first class... The seat he offered to exchange for looked like a Comfort+ seat that has extra leg room... The difference in that seat and the seat he was in on the Delta Website looks to average between $2,000 and $2,700...
The difference between Cam's seat and first class would have been about $4,000 or more...
Now, I do not know what airline he was flying or what he paid for his ticket exactly but I can tell you, I would not have even entertained swapping my seat for $1500 for some entitled putz like Cam Newton...

I would've turned him down just for the FU opportunity.
Where's that fricking smirk now, douche?

You have to be brilliant enough to anticipate what complete morons might CALL racist.
This isn't about someone who actually perceives racism. This is about shitty people using racism as political/social leverage to get what they want, or in this case, to attack people who don;t give them what they want. It always was. Just liars who use it as a weapon.
Start backing down and needlessly policing yourself, and it will only get worse.

For me, it would be an easy decision. Thanks a big NO THANKS!
Why? Because frick Cam Newton, that’s why!
If it’s some other really tall black man that I don’t even know, I’d probably offer him the seat for free before he even asked for it.
That’s just me.

I was wondering if the name was Tariq Nasheed or Tariqna Sheed.

Cam Newton offered a white man $1500 to exchange seats with him and the man turned him down. And many people are confused as to why he didn’t take the money. He didn’t take the offer because this was an insult to his WHITENESS.
This is a nice leap to a silly conclusion. Now go try this leap from a tall building.

.....maybe the white guy wanted the extra leg-room. He paid for the seat......it's his.

Those people tweeting about "whiteness" are some of the most racist people on the planet.
It's a shame they get to be racist openly like that and make a living at it, because they only sow division.

Go up to someone at WalMart and offer them $1500 for their shopping cart.
A 10 hour flight is international. From Chicago to Beijing, the price differential between steerage class and business class seats is about $4000 for the round trip. So, it is like going up to someone walking out of Walmart with a cart full of stuff they just paid $500 for and offering them $300 for it.
As far as tariq is concerned, perhaps he should emulate a characteristic of the successful white man - accept reality, stop bitching about it, and make your little piece of it conform to your wishes.

Did he have $1,500 in cash on his person at the moment of the offer?
If not, GFY.
Or maybe the other guy was rich and needed the leg room himself?

They're all racists. They've just been given a license by the "Media" to hate white people.
If you buy into and tolerate all of the "whiteness" and "white privilege" nonsense, you're perpetuating these assholes and their non-stop hatred.

10 hour flight has to be across seas and even into Korea or something. Those flights cost more than that. Drop in the bucket. Why would someone do that? I would do it if he took a selfie video with me saying the Saints own his arse. I would switch for free to get that on tape.

I would love to know if Cam would have taken the money if the roles were reversed. I’m guessing NO.
Cam Newton, he was an a-hole to everyone around him. He had an entourage of people that didn't even like him. It was embarrassing. He was a loud bastard too.
I wish they would've said no and then stabbed him in his right big toe.

Why didnt Cam just purchase the extra legroom seat knowing he was going on a 10hr flight?
You can't do that. Better off flying private if it's that important.
Posted on 6/25/19 at 12:39 am to Jbird
Probably realized who he was and how much cheating and special treatment has been present in his athletic life
Posted on 6/25/19 at 1:01 am to Jbird
Cam Newton did great things for Auburn, but this is stupid. The more important question is why did Cam think he was so rich and elite enough to be entitled to that seat?
Posted on 6/25/19 at 1:04 am to Jbird
Dude may have been rich as frick and didn't need Cam's chump change.

I just tried to click on Tariq's tweet to see that I have been blocked. I commented on a tweet of his several months ago with some kind of smart arse comment guessing the mean IQ of his followers.
