Right, I'm weeping great salt tears for the guy. Pooooooooooooor baby.

However, he'll be able to milk this cow till its teats fall off.

So says the person apparently outraged that someone posted something on social media that upset them.

Not sure how someone taking a photo of you in public is a violation of privacy. Can you explain?

In any event, certainly Southwest can discipline her if she violated company policy. Surely Southwest wants to stay politically neutral. That said, I'm not sure what the complaint is otherwise. Wear an incendiary shirt in public, get criticized for it. What did he expect to get? A cookie?
It looks like both. The employee violated policy. This is a service industry, no equivalence between customer and employee. Customer can be political, service employee must be impartial.

LOL, far from outraged, dear. The left has been in a perpetual temper tantrum for the past three years. Some of the loons are entertaining, most are just obnoxious.

If this was just another passenger on the plane who posted the picture with negative comments that would’ve been their own business. As an employee of the airline, it was wrong to post a passenger’s picture on his fb page with disparaging remarks. I don’t feel sorry for the passenger at all but the bitchy immature FA showed his true colors and lack of professionalism.

Yet here you are calling people names because someone posting something on social media has triggered you. I have little sympathy for either party involved here but the irony of your angry internet posts ranting about someone who had the terimity to publish angry internet posts is pretty amazing.

Zero anger here but thank you for your apparent obsession with me.

Shrug, trump supporters deserve the criticism aimed at them. No one feels badly for them.

I remember a lot of people, usually Black, wearing those Obama shirts. If this employee had made a comment about that on their facebook page they would have been called a racist and fired. The fact is its unprofessional to talk about your customers in a public forum and hurts your employer. The argument that the Trump wearing person was looking for it because they dressed like that is ironic considering the same argument can be made for the person posting it on their Facebook Page. They posted it knowing it was controversial.
