Thank you, Southwest, for recognizing that people who take up part of the seat I purchased are infringing on my paid-for space. I have been on other airlines where I -- the person who fits in my seat -- am inconvenienced so as not to offend the overweight passenger. Where are MY rights in all this? Sorry -- no one force-fed Kevin Smith and Southwest certainly has no responsibility in his girth. Kevin Smith is the one who made himself fat, and he needs to stop whining about the number of seats he does or does not take up. I wish the person who was sitting next to him would speak up on how much his space was infringed. And to all the overweight passengers who are claiming discrimination: buy a first class seat if you don't want to be embarrased by the flight attendant who has to tell you that you are taking up more than the space you paid for. Or -- better yet -- lose some weight and then NONE of this would be an issue! (and flight prices may come down since the weight of the plane would come down!!)
