This society is worthless. Individual liberty is more important.

That moonbat isn't LADY GAGA, OR MADONNA. He may THINK he is in his squirrly little mind where he's probably throwing fairy dust and rainbow colored candy sprinkles in slow motion. But NOT in reality where he obviously doesn't live.

So, then, you are saying that he shouldn't be allowed to fly unless he conforms to your personal idea of "decorum" and is "normal" like you?

Isn't that a bit egocentric?

No. The standards are actually set quite low. Decorum should be the word of the day for everyone, everyday. It's civilized.

I guarantee you that more men are flying wearing women's underwear than you'd care to know. Perhaps you should fly more and introduce yourself to them. Then you would know more.

The football player's saggy pants was completely unacceptable attire, while this fruitcake gets on the jet wearing electric blue undies.
How about young women who wear men's boxer shorts over their own underwear (which maybe little more than a thong, or they may be sans underwear at all)? I know that my girlfriend has done that. Is that acceptable?

How about a woman wearing a pair of shorts that are basically identical to boxer shorts, but are not technically boxer shorts, over her regular underwear? Is that ok?

How about if I go commando under a pair of shorts? Or jeans? Or trousers? How is that different than sagging and revealing boxers? It's only one thin layer of fabric between my goods and your eyes.

We're gonna need the TSA to start examining people's underwear more closely.

Your liberty ends when I need eye bleach and a prescription of Erasitol to clear my mind from the visual screwery that you've place upon me by being within view of you decked out in a Green Hornet unitard.

I don't know about removing them from society, but schooling them on decorum is certainly necessary.
They have heard of it, but they do not think it applies to them.

If they do not know how to act appropriately in public, I certainly do not what them venturing anywhere near public areas. They may allow this kind of idiot in San Francisco, but that is only because those in San Francisco are completely clueless when it comes to public "decorum" or "propriety."

Unless you're physically harmed by an action, turn your head or ignore it. It's not the government's job to prevent you from being offended.

No. The rules were made because the idots were offended by other people expressing their freedoms. We lose more freedoms because people are overly concerned with how someone wears their pants.
