There's no need to be so hostile. According to both articles, when the family was kicked off the plane there was no reason given other than a generic flight safety issue. After the whole incident is when United Airlines cited that it was an issue about child safety seats, which the family enquired before they were kicked off the plane. Whether or not the pilot had racist intentions is to be debated but UA did humiliate that family for no good reason.

And you have no evidence that the harness wasn't the reason, and especially no evidence that it would have been different wuth a white family.

The harness may have been the reason but that's besides the point. Point is that other than a "safety issue" they weren't notified why they were kicked off until after the event. The family said they weren't notified and the airline was quick to apologise for their actions, so they know they messed up. You seem to think that I am accusing the pilot of racism, which I am not but it still is a possibility which only investigation will determine.
