Is that sound business practice, do some of you not even care? Personally, I think it's stupid. I don't even see ANY mention of ANYONE saying anything. Who was hurt? Did the plane blow up because of the shirt? Were scores of impressionable children rendered mentally void because of one woman's choice of apparel? Vote on the poll, and discuss.
the "lady" deserves to be booted from the flight for, if nothing else, a total lack of common sense...jeebus 'ckin' cripes, lets just all go out and buy and wear the most agitating tee-shirts we can get and just fuck everyone's sense of taste and sensibilities...

sorry, i just have a real problem with this...
