The following article was copied from MyFoxNY. It was posted on August 10th. I'm not sure of the specifics of the article itself.

A JetBlue passenger was barred from boarding a plane because he wore a T-shirt with an Arabic message.

The ACLU is suing JetBlue and the Transportation Security Administration for discrimination.

Do you think the passenger should have been allowed to wear the shirt on the plane?

What if that t-shirt said "Praise God"? What is this world coming to? This makes me want to go out and buy a t-shirt with something in Arabic written on it! If we're going to do this, then why don't we ban all foreign languages from U.S. based aircraft? (She said with sarcasm in her voice) This is beyond ridiculous!

It seems that people are paying attention to all the wrong details... They should be looking at things that can be sneaked on, perhaps try to avoid employees of an airline or the airport from transporting arms (as I read recently).

Well just think 88 if a Democrap becomes President you won't have to run out and buy a T-shirt with Aribic writing on it becuase it will probably be mandatory dress.

People need to pay attention to what their
t-shirt says I don't know if things had to go to extreme. My step-daughter learned the hard way by wearing a Confederate flag t-shirt to school (she tended to dress in a jogging suit and would change at school). The blacks made her day, including the ride home from the bus, shall we say, a living nightmare. If you have a t-shirt that you think is great but may cause problems, wear it where no one would have issues with it.

I say screw the people who have issues with the confederate flag. I will wear mine with pride. It seems that people take things to literal anymore. I still want to paint my truck in the flag. Yes I am a southerner and proud of the redneck in me!
As for this T-Shirt it is a piece of fabric
W.T.F!!! Ok so let the ACLU sues the punks that wear their pants down to their knees. Or are they going to sue us for laughing at them when they run from the cops? LOL!!!
They must have some really bored people at the ACLU these people chooses the stupidest things to fight anymore.
No more accommodating the ignorant people who can not take joke or allow those of us to voice out freedom of speech. I am an American citizen and I feel as though I have to hold my speech as to not offend but the others can do it as long as it is against White people. Or White people related items.

But, as a redneck you can't voice opinions, only those that are liberal can...when are you gonna learn that?

My statements were meant that unless you are willing to fight, be careful of what you wear. My step-daughter hid behind my daughter who is itty-bitty and very non-assertive. It was rather funny actually.

That’s why people like us Rednecks we never learn to shut up. LOL!!!
I hope that your step-daughter stands up to these people soon. My daughter use to back away and was kind of quite. But now she's 11 and OMG I will tell you that everyone knows what’s on her mind when she gets opinionated. LOL!!
She has a T-Shirt that say's "Just shut up" I wonder if the ACLU will sue me if I take it away from her? LOL!!

We moved to Silver Cliff which is almost like being in a different galaxy. No illegals, when people wave it is not with middle finger only and I think the longest line I have had to stand in was at the grocery store and there were 2 people who had maybe 8 items each. I guess I am more country than redneck, I tend to avoid conflicts and keep hubby proper (who would know that a computer geek is a redneck). I am sure they would sue you if you took the t-shirt away. The ACLU is made up of lawyers who can't make it elsewhere.

That's just it janet! The ACLU has way too much time on their hands! And the worst part is that they pick and choose what to fight! They want equality but they don't even have it when it comes to defending everyone! As I said before, this makes me want to go out and buy a t-shirt that says something like "F__k the ACLU" in Arabic! LMAO!!!!! LOL!!!!

If you want to see someone get intimidated, stand up in their face and let them know you are not a Democrat and will actually fight back!
