Be Careful What You Wear

by Andrew Sparrow on January 23, 2007

An Australia man was recently kicked off a Qantas airlines flight from Melbourne to London, for wearing an anit-Bush T-Shirt. The shirt, which read “World’s #1 terrorist” and had a picture of the President, was deemed objectionable.

Qantas airlines has a policy against potentially disruptive or controversial speech on flights, and the shirt fell into that category. Additionally, it is generally not a good idea to wear or carry anything onto an airplane with the word “terrorist.” It tends to make people uncomfortable.
