Is It Racist to Remove Airline Passengers for Disruptive Praying?
There's a precedent.
We can even apply Gary Farber's rule:
I've long, as a Jew, found a highly useful test for distinguishing legitimate commentary from hate; I take the noun of the statement in question, switch it to "Jew," or the adjective to "Jewish," and see how I think it stands up.It works in both directions.

FA: I'm sorry, but the pilot has asked that you leave this plane.
Jerry: What?
FA: Apparently, he has some sort of problem with you.
Katie: I'm not surprised. I really let him have it, Jerry. He has no business being in your audience if you didn't want him there.
Jerry: I didn't care.
FA: Well, now the pilot doesn't want you on his plane.
Jerry: He can't just throw me off the plane!
FA: Yes he can, if he has cause to believe a passenger will be a disturbance.
Jerry: But I'm not a disturbance!
FA: Well, apparently you are disturbing him, sir.
Jerry: But someone is waiting for me!
Katie: Jerry, I don't want you to freak out.
Jerry: I'm freakin' out! I am freakin' out!
