Sigh.

Hasn't already been decided that the 1st amendment protects people from being censored by the government?

Southwest is a private airlines.

Just north of Vancouver Wash, Bay. South of Longview. Used to be a VERY conservative area. (past tense)

Paying customers.

Taking a flight isn't a right.

Flying used to be seen as "romantic" just like taking a trip on one of the great ocean liners.

Women wore their nicest dress, men worse their best suit.

The stewardesses were all young, gorgeous, and served meals worthy of 5 star restaurants.

Many aircraft were fitted with sleeper berths for passengers and had a "lady's lounge" for keeping up "in flight appearances".

Sadly, that is all from a time long since passed. When air travel became affordable to the masses, (with the arrival of the 747) it simply became another form of mass transportation.

"She agreed to cover the words with a sweatshirt, but ... the sweatshirt slipped while she was trying to sleep
Yeah right. Whoopsie!! That's absolute balderdash. This is all a stunt."

Yup. Intentionally trolling for a payoff.

It was obscene, there is no right to obscene speech.

And has a life partner that a girls PE teacher at the local High School. And is bitter and angry at/with life. Hopefully the state will codify it's "right to die" law, and she'll be the first taker.

Southwest is not part of our government and should be able to restrict the speech of passengers if it wants to. If the idiot doesn't like Southwest, she does't have to fly Southwest.

Are you kidding? Someone playing the accordion on an airplane? Talk about air rage. I would have been in those little plastic handcuffs in notime after punching the guy.

How is this for a standard. A business asked a customer to get off of its property? They should give her money back and not allow her to fly in the future.

"It was obscene, there is no right to obscene speech."

That's a different argument. My point was that merely because other people are offended is not enough reason to ban speech - if for no other reason than Christian symbols would quickly be banned everywhere because someone claimed to be offended.
