She has every right to wear that shirt.  The airline has every right to
bounce her for it.

She's a dumbass.

Subject: Woman bounced from Southwest flight for T-shirt

RENO - A Washington state woman intends to press a civil-rights case against
Southwest Airlines for booting her off a flight in Reno after fellow
passengers complained about a message on her T-shirt.

Lorrie Heasley, of Woodland, Wash., was halfway home on a flight Tuesday
that began in Los Angeles, wearing a T-shirt with the pictures of President
Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and
a phrase similar to the popular film, Meet the Fockers.

Heasley said she wore the T-shirt as a gag. She wanted her parents, who are
Democrats, to see it when they picked her up at the airport in Portland,
Ore.

"I just thought it was hilarious," said Heasley, 32, a lumber saleswoman.

And she felt she had the right to wear it.

"I have cousins in Iraq and other relatives going to war," she said. "Here
we are trying to free another country and I have to get off an airplane in
midflight over a T-shirt. That's not freedom."
