I think that freedom of speech wasn't denied to anyone, the lady got to wear the shirt didn't she? However, freedom within a republic/democracy doesn't mean doing whatever you want, it means having a choice to decide what you can and can't do, as in by voting. No freedom was trampled here, the freedom of speech referred to in the constitution does not mean having the freedom to say what you want. In my opinion this lady had plenty of opportunities, she chose to do something that is still even in this time controversial, believe me a shirt like that will get comments on the street, although they may vary depending on where you live. She chose now she gets to live with the consequences. I think the only valid point here is that the airline hasn't been consistent, I seriously doubt that this is the first time someone has gotten on with a provocative shirt. However, i think it will be a weak case to base it just on that because it is the airlines policy and unless someone else on the flight had a shirt that was offensive and wasn't kicked out then this lady doesn't have a case.
