Answer 1

That is probably the dumbest question I've seen so far.

Bush sucks. Does that mean I can't fly around on a plane; just because I don't agree with how he is damaging the world? No.

I can disagree with his policies. I can hate the fact we're at war over his lies. I can hate him. But that cannot stop me from traveling.

Actually, it might even buy me a one way ticket to GITMO.

Answer 2

Yes, of course they should. Actually, I read an interesting article recently. A veteran was kicked out of his local VA for wearing a T-Shirt with a peace message on it. He was just sitting there, drinking coffee, and a security guard came up to him and informed him he wasn't allowed to protest there. He would have to leave the premises. I think people should be able to wear whatever they want on a plane, but I wouldn't be surprised if they soon develop a national uniform that we all have to wear in public........that's how crazy this country is getting. Absolutely off the wall nuts.

Answer 3

I'm sure that there are many people who equate wearing anti-war and anti-Bush T-shirts as the same as radicals; maybe even think such people are carrying bombs under their clothing.

One of the first things my father taught me when I was a boy is:

"The world cannot know what you are, the world can only know what you appear to be.
Therefore it is important that you appear to be what you are."

That advice has helped me through all my formative years and all of my life.

Remember: When you act or dress like a bum, the world thinks you are a bum. That will always be the case.

Answer 4

yes logically they pose no threat unless you've had yer head up yer @ss for the last six years and decided to pull it out finally on board on Boeing 747 to Atlanta... But a national dress code will probably be the next agenda on a Patriot Act revision just after we decide it is unconstitutional to speak about anything except the flag the anthem and the brilliance of the Imperial Bush Regime.

Answer 5

Hello!! :o) NO - no one should be allowed to wear an anti-war or anti-Bush T-shirt on an airplane. They shouldn't be allowed to wear a pro-war or pro-Bush T-shirt either. 'Freedom of speech' does not apply to airplanes. At least not anymore. Should someone be allowed to wear a "September 11th - serves America Right", T-shirt?! Or a 'You are all going to die" T-shirt?! Craig!! :o)

Answer 6

yes they should cause they're doing something called Freedom of speech. have you heard of that. just because someone is wearing something that you don't like shouldn't be treated differently. there are a lot of people who don't like Bush and thinks this war is a waste of money, and that's fine because it's their opinion. no one has the right to tell us that we cannot have our on opinion. next thing you know we would have Big Brother telling us how we feel and what's right and wrong, but until that day comes people have the right to say what they want when they want cause America has Freedom of Speech.

Answer 7

They can't take away your first amendment right without good reason. Being anti war, or anti bush doesn't make you a terrorist. That's completely ridiculous. Everyone should be entitled to their opinion; without being accused of being a traitor. What is this, a monarchy?

Answer 8

of course! I think people who wear things that support Bush or the war shouldn't be allowed on airplanes

Answer 9

While their mode of dressing may not be the most considerate to pro-Bushers (I personally like to keep people guessing about where I stand, at least where my clothing is concerned) I don't believe they are breaking any law by wearing t-shirts with slogans, and I don't think terrorists are going to be so obvious, do you?

Answer 10

Yes.

As if the Republicans aren't badly enough off their rockers... you'll know they're really off when they decide that freedom of speech is a threat to a flight.
