Photographer Pervez Taufiq was traveling with his family when a woman told his kids to shut up before going on a racist rant and ultimately being removed from a shuttle bus.

Photographer Pervez Taufiq was recently traveling with his family when they were confronted with a racist woman on their flight.

During the flight, Taufiq was unaware that the woman had begun to speak to his children, asking them if they were Indian and making inappropriate comments to them.


But everything got worse when passengers boarded a transport shuttle to the next airport, and the woman decided to film them, say racist slurs to the whole family, and tell the children to "shut up" while they talked on the bus.

In the video, Taufiq explained:

"My blood is boiling right now. I honestly cannot even believe that this is a real thing. We were just in this altercation with this lady who was giving us a really hard time."
"She was telling my kids to 'shut up,' and I lost it and said, 'You don't have a right to talk to my kids like that,' and the rest of this [video] is what she said."

The video then cuts to a white woman sitting on the transportation bus, saying racist slurs, flipping the family off, telling the children to "shut up," and filming them.

"Your family is from India. You have no respect, you have no rules, and you think you can push everyone. Push push push. That's what you think you are. You guys are f**king crazy."

When an attendant asked if there was a problem, Taufiq asked if she could be removed for being "rude and racist."

The woman responded:

"He doesn't care about being racist. He's racist towards me."
"I'm an American... You're not American. Not originally, no. You're from f**king India... I saw your passport."

While several attendants spoke to the woman, she tried to play the victim, but other passengers did not play along.

Hearteningly, some passengers spoke up on Taufiq's family's behalf and explained how she had been speaking to the whole family, especially the children, and making everyone on the bus uncomfortable.

She was then forcibly removed from the bus and had to take another to reach the airport.

Some viewers were disgusted by the woman's behavior.

Before the video ended, Taufiq said she had been arrested and would likely go on a no-fly list.

"So, quick update. The police are looking to arrest her. She was incredibly, incredibly abusive. Her husband got in my face and all this nonsense. But United Airlines handled this like a champ and is basically going to put her on a no-fly list."

Viewers were relieved by the update.

It's appalling that there are actually people like this in the world who believe their behavior is acceptable. Fortunately, more and more people and organizations are speaking out against behavior like this.

ChatGPT Response Appears To Make It Into School Textbook—And We're Doomed

Students are being actively discouraged from using ChatGPT and other AI-generation tools, as they are expected to learn their educational concepts and be able to put them into practice. They are also not supposed to use these tools while writing papers or during at-home tests.

Given how expensive grade school and college textbooks are, it is reasonable that educational writers and content professionals should be held to the same standards. Wouldn't it make sense for them to use the knowledge of their field, rather than what's been fed into ChatGPT, to make a textbook a worthwhile purchase for students?
