    Well, I understand where you are coming from, in the sense of "customer service".

    But, the gays/lesbians are customers too -- no?

    So, are you saying that "first come first serve" is the policy when it comes down to filing a complaint? Maybe gays/lesbians should start complaining fiercly to the staff in restaurants, aeroplanes, hotels, etc. because of loud children who can't shut up.

    I wonder if the parents and the children get the boot of the aeroplane?

    I dont think it would be such a big deal if the other passengers had an opt-out option. At least with a porn you can turn it off if you're not in the mood or if there are children present.

    They deserved to be kicked off the plane. The liberal-rage in the OP is unwarranted.

    Whats worse is they try to turn it into Homophobia, what a joke. When do these people grow up and get their mind out of somebodies crotch...Everything revolves around them and their sexual preference, they have to show Case their ''so called'' persecution..

    Reminds me of Seinfelds Uncle Leo and everybody was a anti Semite...LOL

    It's going to tough to render a decision on this until I see the lesbians in action.
    Do you have a video?

    This was a completely stupid affair from the beginning and there has been a completely stupid reaction by both sides afterwords as evidenced by this thread. Two cute girls made out on a plane. As a normal red blooded American I view that as an improvement over the homoerotic groping TSA gives me. I wouldn't waste my time complaining about it. I would order a beer and enjoy the show.

    As far as the gays are concerned making out on a plane by any sexual orientation is going to draw fire from certain people in society. Get over it.

    And to the people that can't handle jokes... well you guys really need to get over it.

    It's not some arbitrary decision. If the staff is seeing something considered repugnant by the large majority of the guests and it is disturbing the order of the crowd then (*)(*)(*)(*) straight on a plane where tempers are short anyway the staff had better do something.

    It's not a democracy on an airplane, order must be maintained or we have freakouts and heart attacks at 30,000 feet.

    Just saying people's safety is put at risk when stress is added to an already stressful flight.

    There are other factors here that do touch on passenger and flight safety as well as moral and ethical issues of tolerance.

    No, it wasn't.

    SiliconMagician said that the lesbians being kicked off the aeroplane was just in the sense of customer service towards others customers that complained about the girls making out.

    What if that Gosselin family would be on the aeroplane screaming murder and fire.

    You can't spell or something?

    The comparison is explained in my post towards SiliconMagician in the sense that he justifies the intervention towards the lezzers because of "customer service".

    All I'm pointing out is: OK, I understand where you are coming from -- but where draw the line? Should loud kids and their parents be put off the aeroplane because of multiple complaints by numerous people for outrageous behavioral issues?

    But, SiliconMagician...

    Loud kids, for me and others, adds tremendous stress upon an already flight.

    They run across the isle, some babies need to get changed in the WC -- and their stink fills the entire cabin. They throw around peanuts and are pushing their heads back and forth agains the chairs (together with their heads!).

    Since moral and ethical issues of tolerance aren't an issue for you, I'm sure you agree with me that these group of disturbal elements (parents and their kids) need to put off the aeroplane?

    And you and 6 other people snore loud. Quit deflecting.

    The issue is a homosexual celebrity, was according to the complaints to staff, kissing/embracing in "excess", with her significant other, got told to chill, got militant, and got punted...and started a fury of epic, boycott Southwest twits and blogs.

    We don't know if the complaints where coming from a 'majority', or that a 'majority' found their behaviour 'repugnant' - that's important in considering whether the actions of the staff were correct.

    Agreed. Once they were told to stop (rightly or wrongly - as I say, we don't really have enough information to judge that), they should have complied, and complained (if they felt it was justified) at the appropriate time. There is no excuse for freaking out on a plane, and anyone who does that should be removed, irrespective of whether their original dissatisfaction at the way the staff dealt with the complaints had some justification.

    The 'tolerance' issue and the 'removal' issue are, in my opinion, separate. If they were freaking out or causing a scene by refusing to comply with staff orders, the staff acted correctly in removing them - there are safety issues that can't be ignored in that situation. Whether staff acted correctly regarding the 'tolerance' is another issue, and one we can't really judge properly on the information we have.

    People use the term star so loosely these days. This is the very first mention of the show I've ever seen. Not much of a star if nobody ever heard of you.
    Can you say publicity stunt?

    I would be fine with that assuming any heterosexual couple was escorted off for doing the same thing.

    Of course not. The Bible bashers would never complain about that.

    If it was excessive, then sure, I have no issue with them being kicked off the plane. But if it was just a hug or a little kiss, then that is not a big deal and the homophobic customers on the plane should get over it.

    You've never heard of The L Word?:mrgreen:
    That show went for 6 seasons! Jennifer Beals was in it - and I am sure you have heard of her?

    Personally I would have LOVED it if those two girls were sitting by me. Boo to the losers that complained.

    I had already said in my 1st post that homo OR hetero, if it's excessive, passengers complained, the couple wouldn't stop - then remove them....

    I had never heard of the L Word show & this lesbian 'star' either and she's nothing but an attention whore.......

    I would first want to know whether the incident was simply an affectionate kiss or overtly sexual.

    If overtly sexual I agree with SW for giving them the boot although a warning may have been appropriate.

    Public displays crossing the line of affection to vulgarity are not acceptable whether the orientation is homo or hetero.

    My ex used to work at a hair salon where a few, not all, gay men would loudly and graphically talk about their sexual exploits and accuse anyone who complained of discrimination. I didn't think that was appropriate either.
