>>First the airlines get sued for making fat people purchase two seats (which their lard-butts take up), then they're sued for allowing fat people to purchase one seat. I wish they'd make up their mind.<<

I think this guy is trying to offset the other side. When you look at how much he's suing for, he obviously is not doing it for the money. It seems he's trying to say to the lawsuits by the obese people, If you only want to pay for one seat, that's all you're gonna get, because if the airline lets your lard flop over into the verticle plane of the other seat, you are violating the space someone else paid for - and they will be justified in suing us.

This guy is kind of upping the stakes for both sides. Fighting back, if you will. And doing it where it will matter. I hope he succeeds.

I hope he succeeds.

Bump that sentiment.

I'm with you. I think its a dumb lawsuit when you get down to it, and the guy filing it probably does too. But its nice to see somebody stand up and fight using the same logic (twisted as it may be) that the parasite class uses.
