A lesbian actress who starred in "The L-Word" said she kissed a girl and got escorted off of a Southwest Airlines flight on Monday for doing it.
Leisha Hailey took to Twitter to call for a boycott of the carrier after a flight attendant told them other passengers had complained after witnessing the affection.
Her first tweet said: "I have been discriminated against." She later added, "Since when is showing affection to someone you love illegal?"
Southwest Airlines Co. responded on its website that Hailey was approached "based solely on behavior and not gender." The airline's four-sentence response said passengers were characterizing the behavior as excessive.

I don't want to watch any couple making out while I'm sitting next to them on a flight, period!
Get over it, lesbo. Get a room if you want to make out, don't do it in public, publicity slut.
another stupid attention seeking bint.
If I had been on the plane I would have said something too, infact if this had been a normal couple I’d have said something because I doubt this was just a quick kiss.
No first class either, is her show losing viewers and this is the way for her to get the ratings more up ?
That is her without hollywood makeup.
when crap likes this happens then more nad more turn against them and their agenda
years ago it was supposed to be their private business and I had no problem years ago but today I have a massive problem with them and their agenda.
they never kept it private, they’re out in dog parks, parks, hiking trails, public bathrooms and in your face like these two clowns were.
It’s not sexy , it’s not beautiful it’s not even a turn on it’s disgusting seeing two ugly butch women making out.
And they didn’t get kicked off for kissing, they got kicked off for raising heck after being told to stop.
Take it to your gay bar or wherever it is you won't be turning the stomachs of decent people.
I've always liked Southwest Airlines. Now I like them even more.
[ You are 100% correct. My mom once told me about two ladies who lived in her small West Virginia town when she was a child (pre-1920). Everyone knew they were lesbians, but they didnt flaunt it, and they were just nice people otherwise. No one cared about what they did behind closed doors. ]
Exactly 1000% correct. It is all about “common sense and common decency”. I have issues with straight people giving each other tonsil exams with their tounges in public.
Certain behavior is meant for the bedroom and certain behavior is meant for the bathroom. You don’t see people urinating and pooping in public like a bunch of wild animals do you? That is what separates us fromt he animals, of course libs and their “Social De-constructionism” would love nothing more that to revert us back to behaving like “animals in heat”.
In their quest for not being beaten / killed for how they behave in their bedrooms, the homosexual movement has become a self sustaining political movement that is now demanding the right to act uncivilized because they wish to stay in power after their inital goals have been accomplished. Much like Unions have done.
DITTO!
She needs the old HBI to make her an honest woman.
I will fly southwest now!
look its Mr. Garison! (/s)
Publicity stunt.
“Heartless B!tches International”?
nice or not, wisdom dictates never to allow children around homosexuals. There is no positive or harmless. It is no different than a wife swapper house where such parties occur. It may be behind closed doors but it is still a negative.
Remember when a room mate was just a room mate?
I’m in the process of spec’ing out a browser add-on for Free Republic because of you.
Elucidate please!
I don't know, if I was out fishing with a buddy and all of a sudden he starts going on about homosexuality, I'm moving to the other end of the pier.
Unless he's cute.
I blasted you for some comment or another, though we had had friendly relations before. It hurt your feeling. I decided it would be nice to have a browser addon that allowed me to track positive or negative exchanges with freepers so that I didn’t accidently blast a relative ally in the future.
You got that right - at least the part about moving to the other end of the pier. I don’t give a damn how cute he is.
Ah, LOL. Let me know how that works out. By the way, IIRC, the blasting was over the incident where a woman was arrested by an officer in front of the woman’s home after she was told to go back inside her home. We disagreed regarding the arrest. FWIW, my feelings were not injured. I’m not that thin skinned.
