Azealia Banks was recently in an argument with two French tourists on a United Airlines flight. She tried to leave the plane but the French couple were having difficulty removing their luggage from a overhead bin. Reports say she assaulted the man and a flight attendant intervened. He held onto her bag and she lashed out yelling a slur at him. Ana Kasparian (The Point) and Ben Mankiewicz (What The Flick?!) hosts of The Young Turks discuss.

“Azealia Banks compared the LGBT community to “gay white KKK’s” in a recent tweet days after using an anti-gay slur against a flight attendant following an incident with another passenger.
“LGBT community (GGGG) are like the gay white KKK’s,” the rapper wrote in a since-deleted tweet screen grabbed by Billboard. “Get some pink hoods and unicorns and rally down rodeo drive.”
Banks made headlines after getting into an altercation with a fellow Delta Airlines passenger while attempting to exit the plane on a flight to LAX. Video shows the attendant intervening and Banks calling him a “fucking faggot.”
Banks took to Twitter to defend herself after the backlash.”
