Pamela Hill-Veal was traveling with her family from Chicago to Phoenix back in February. In a complaint seen by NPR, she said that after she visited the bathroom, a flight attendant stopped her and accused her of slamming the door.

"He began to berate me by pointing his finger at me towards my face and saying, 'I told you not to slam the door ... so from now on, you are to use the restroom in the back of the plane' while he pointed in the direction of the restroom in coach," she told NPR.

Hill-Veal, who is Black, told NPR..........

#5 Probably complaining and being loud the whole trip too; the Phelps method of creating an unbearable situation, causing a reaction, then framing the reaction as instigating (desired story).

Bet NPR had a time slot opened before baggage claim.
