(86,643 posts)4. I'd be complaining that it's offensive and dangerous.
The guy looks dangerous if he's implying that the shirt's message is something to promote in public. Looks shifty, I would feel unsafe with that guy on the same aircraft.

....and they weren't revealing or offensive, just not "tasteful" in their eyes.
If I were getting on that plane I'd file a complaint.

Which was perfectly suitable flying from Jamaica. But someone wearing a shirt promoting violent rhetoric is not asked to leave or cover it up???

(63,221 posts)14. He should never have been allowed to board.
He is openly advocating murdering journalists. As far as I am concerned, that makes him a danger to the public.
