Anyone doing/wearing/saying anything even slightly questionable in an airport or while on an airplane should expect repurcussions in the post 9/11 era. This lady knew that the possibility of stirring up a hornets nest was likely when she donned the shirt; she now has to live with the consequences. I really can't say if the reasons were vulgarity or political, but the airline was within it's rights to kick her off. However, I also think that the situation was handled poorly and is going to have backlash against Southwest.
