She was told to hide it from sight, or leave.  She chose to leave.


Yeah that probably was the case. Altough it didnt contain curse word, but movie title, quite popular one even. I still think, that the only people who should've been given the choice is the complainers.

SW Air is like.. the wal-mart of airlines... so she *was* dressed appropriately enough. probably just upset some republicans who were sharing the flight. for a definition of republican, see my sig.

GEESH don't you people read.  It did not say "Meet the twittlers" it said "meet the Fu**ers"

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 twittlers.

I don't think that shirt would be offensive in Germany.  That cross wasn't really a symbol of Nazism and probably goes back way before the third reich.

Anyone have a link to a picture of the shirt? Everything I've heard or read states it was a case of profanity, not vieled profanity, but actual profanity.

Gunslinger, ( & Monk)

yes is the symbol found on WW1 a/c but is also the shape of the WW2 medal > Iron Cross.

Is not the shape called the Maltese Cross?

When I was  kid, 18-19 yrs, I worked at disneyland and they reserved the right and enforced the right to boot anyone from the park that did not conform to their dress code.  Such as, profanity on shirts, walking around without a shirt, and I hear in the 60's... any man with long hair (ask my dad about getting thrown out)  lol.  They called it "attracting attention from the show".

Hi Milo

As far as I'm aware the Maltese Cross insignia was in use by West Germany up thru the 1970's. Certainly it's not considered offensive by any Germans I know. The Swatsika annoys some folks of jewish descent, and last time I checked was 'illegal' to display even on scale model airplanes in Germany.
