Many years ago I learned of Southwest policy against overweight people and ever since then I have refused to patronize such bigoted airline. And yes, I have been paying slightly higher prices, but it's been worth it in order not to fly Southwest.

I hope the media makes this a big embarrassment to the Southwest bigots. Go Kevin!
