Southwest Airlines changes obscenity policy mid-flight

A female passenger was kicked off a Southwest Airlines flight recently for wearing a T- shirt that had an expletive and images of President Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney and Condoleezza Rice.


Southwest rules allow the airline to deny boarding to any passenger whose clothing is "lewd, obscene or patently offensive." However, they only let it become a problem after passenger complaints during the flight. Halfway through a paid for trip, she was forced to either turn her shirt inside out or leave.

Freedom of speech doesn't always apply 30,000 feet in the sky.
