Thank you tx_dem41 and eyesroll
For the funniest thread!!!

There was talk of boycotting Southwest and they found on Southwest airlines the policy about profanity on clothing and that they did have the right to bounce someone for profanity on the shirt.

An activism thread got out of control and they were accused of citing something they couldn't backup even though they repeated posted the link to Southwest Airlines policy AND the section about profanity on clothing.

The thread degraded into one of the funniest things I've read in ages.

Thanks you two!!

3. The funny part of it is
That all you people go on and on and on and on and on to ONE person who wants to boycott Southwest. That's what cracked me up about the thread.
Thanks for the heads up. I needed a good laugh this morning.

4. You're welcome.
:hi:

It's not that I usually someone who wants to boycott, as a matter of course -- heck, there are probably some good reasons to avoid Southwest.

That's just not one of them.

5. They are actually a red company but....
...it's difficult to find many airlines that are blue. The only ones I could find were like Alaska Airlines and Northwest. Unfortunately neither of them hub near the Philly/Baltimore region
