I think it's a fantastic precedent to set - and definately got rid of the problem in the most effective manner possible. I'll tell you this much. I personally find spandex and wife beater t-shirts offensive, and particularly when they endorse NASCAR events. Don't get me started on finger nail and toe nail polish. (Hello, my name is gaudy white trash!!!) It's disgusting and causes me to have violent gas. Therefore, I would like all people wearing such crap kicked off every plane, bus, and subway I ever get on. Period.
* dons her Dale, Jr tshirt and asks, 'who you calling white trash?' This is not about what 'you' like. This woman wore an offensive language tshirt and had I been travelling with my kids, I too would have complained, and probably loudly.
On a recent flight, the girl sitting next to me took out hand cream that had a strong perfume. I am extremely sensitive to scents-most make me choke and this did. When she took it out again after a half hour, totally oblivious to my earlier choking episode, I asked her to please not open it again, I am allergic, but she had started to open it and, although she apologized and put it away, for another 20 minutes, I choked, not only making myself uncomfortable, but disturbing the quiet for other passengers.
Planes, buses, trains are businesses that cater to multitudes of people-not just one, and the comfort of all should come first before the convenience of one. A little common sense and common courtesy should be in order. Always seems to be the ones with no hint of dignity or propriety are the first to cry indignance and insult and call a lawyer.
