It’s looking an awful lot like YouTube prankster Adam Saleh’s claim that Delta kicked him off a plane for speaking Arabic is just a hoax. Which wouldn’t really be surprising at all given the guy’s history of perpetrating hoaxes.
But actor Kal Penn has evidently opted to side against the mounting evidence that Saleh’s just a jerk with a penchant for lying and instead call out Delta for — what else? — racism:
Seems the homie @OMGAdamSaleh got kicked off @Delta 4 speaking Arabic. Instead of being dbags, be bilingual, @Delta. https://t.co/bnkK7nrUu8

@sbaidwan @omgAdamSaleh @Delta @CBSNews it'd be so much easier to just learn a 2nd language than be scared of those of us who speak 'em pic.twitter.com/uQAuvl2O6Y

Maybe you should’ve held off a little longer, Kal.
That's not why he got kicked off, homie. https://t.co/k7rVfUgqSb

Parting word of advice:
