gnetwerker's Journal: Right to Fly vs. Free Speech

Most nerds and libertarians know the story of Jon Gilmore's various fights with the TSA and airlines. But yesterday a normal citizen got kicked off a Southwest Airliens flight from Reno to Portland, OR for wearing a t-shirt with an "offensive" slogan.

Lorrie Heasley was wearing a shirt with a picture of members of the Bush administration and the a slight variation of the name of the recent film "Meet the Fockers". Better not fly wearing any of these!
