Where did you get that? I want one. It does not appear on the Trump website.

I don't have a problem with that any more than I'd have a problem if the t-shirt read **** Hillary.It's the **** that's the problem,not the sentiment behind it.

If I had one I would also remove it before getting onto I-95 in the liberal cesspool where I live. I would truly be afraid of being run into the center wall.

Why is he so obsessed with having gay sex with Trump that he would put his desires on a shirt and wear it in public?

They should have offered to just let him cover it with duct tape or something. That way it would have just said TRUMP! Lol

I read the entire story. See the text which I highlighted:
“Southwest Airlines does not have a Customer dress code. We only address situations where Customers or Employees believe an item of clothing might be overtly offensive to fellow members of the traveling public, including the many families with children who fly with us. In this situation, the Customer was wearing a shirt with a word that is widely considered offensive emblazoned upon the front. As a result, we requested the Customer cover or change his shirt. Once the conversation escalated, the Customer was denied boarding on his original flight, and rebooked on a later flight. The Customer elected to cancel his reservation. As always, we take the comfort and safety of the over 100 million Customers who fly us each year very seriously.”
I suspect that is what got Kevin booted from the flight. He probably caused a scene.

This is what he got for wearing offensive words in public. I bet they would have banned him if he had said that about anyone. The 4-letter word was what was offensive.

I think you're exactly right. Southwest Airlines is also one of the more family friendly airlines, meaning lots of families with children fly with them. If I were a parent of a younger child sitting on that plane and this bozo got on I'd have gotten up and asked him to use the lavatory and change his shirt first.

Barring that, it is well known that the Captain of every plan has the authority to remove passengers from the flight if he deems them to be a danger, or disruptive to flight operations either before or during the flight. (Would've been nice to chuck this loser from the plane in flight, btw.)

It comes off when we park, goes back on when we ride.

They'll run you off the road.

I would have been offended at the word no matter who it was directed to....even Hillary.

Such vulgarity has become all to common place these days and people have lost all sense of common decency......

I am just old enough, 61, to remember when my parents would take me and my siblings on planes and we dressed up. Did not even think of not wearing a coat and tie and my mother dressed to the nines. Now a days anything goes.
