A shirt mocking the TSA doesn't come close to that analogy, even if you consider it bad taste, since it doesn't legitimize, condone or make light of terrorism.

A shirt mocking the TSA doesn't come close to that analogy, even if you consider it bad taste, since it doesn't legitimize, condone or make light of terrorism. If it said "Terrorism rules!", then perhaps you'd have a point, although it's still a stupid reason to put him through what they did, especially considering his ordeal did not end with agreeing to change his clothes.
- dhimes 14y agoYou have a point about the analogy I struck- it's not the one I intended. My analogy was intended as the thoughtless act of wearing the shirt, not the relationship of what the shirt condoned. Once the other passengers are upset, it's the pilot's call. Same will happen on a boat or a bus. If you upset the other passengers you get to find some other means of getting where you are going. The pilot made the right call. It sounds like he was only kicked off of one flight. That's fair.
