Making over weight people pay extra for a seat is the same
discrimination as telling black people they have to sit at the back of
the plane.
Do you folks also hate blacks and other minorities?


As a matter of fact, a HUGE black mammy sued an airline co. just a
couple of years ago for making her buy two seats. Never heard what
became of that case.

She was the "extra baggage" on the Aaliyah flight.

In December, 2000, a judge ruled that if some 400-lb. mammyhippo wants to
fly, the airline can charge for more than one seat, and dismissed a suit
that this Hattie McDaniel clone had brought against Southwest Airlines. The
ghetto sows belong on a bus anyway.....
