Whatever happened to free speech?

Apparently a woman was forced to leave a Southwest Airlines plane for wearing an offensive T-Shirt. The shirt bore pictures of Bush, Cheney, and Rice, along with the caption “Meet the Fuckers”, a play on the recent movie title “Meet the Fockers”. I actually saw the exact same shirt at a store in San Francisco last weekend, and while I didn’t buy it, I thought it was pretty funny…

    i’ve encountered no problems getting onto planes/through customs wearing my (hand-stenciled) “another fuckin’ tourist” t-shirt; lots of dirty looks but no outright trouble. then again, i was going to new york…
