You guys seem to be awfully concerned about making sure everyone is as comfortable as possible while continuing to shrink leg room across the board so that everyone but the smaller folks are uncomfortable as hell when flying on any airline. I don't see how Kevin was infringing upon anyone's personal space enough to be kicked off of the plane when you leave the assholes that recline, loud kids and babies, and smelly and/or drunk people alone that can be way more of an issue than any overweight person. The many I've seen on flights are never bothered or ridiculed, so what point is there to do it to one potential safety risk and not them all. Toss one of them out of the door during a flight as a warning to everyone else to shape up and fly right or they will see what it's like to fall to their doom rather than behave like a civilized, responsible person.
Since the overweight population in this country continues to grow, you guys should be careful with what kinds of people you degrade because of a policy that wasn't properly enforced. Or at least do your judgment test well before they get on the plane.
