Retired NFL running back Clinton Portis took to Twitter on Thursday afternoon to tell everyone that he was “experiencing racism”. The former Broncos and Redskins ball-carrier was apparently trying to board a flight when an unknown issue arose, at which time he began snapping photos of a flight attendant and pilot:

One woman casually reminds Portis that it is illegal to post photos of a flight crew without their permission:
