Not only is Kevin Smith is foul-mouthed, offensive individual, but he's also censoring everything posted on his blog. I have tried posting on there and if your opinion doesn't agree with his, he erases you comments. He even went so far as to block my IP address so I can't post on there anymore.

Thank you Southwest!! I fly all the time and greatly appreciate you looking out for the comfort of ALL your passengers. To me, this is not a discrimination issue...it's a passenger comfort issue. Just like airlines stopped smoking on planes because it effected EVERYONE, overweight passengers need to be controlled too because they don't just effect themselves, they effect everyone that has to sit beside them too...Kudos Southwest Here's some news for you Southwest. I went to Kevin Smith's blog about this incident: http://smodcast.com/smodcast/smodcast106.php#c5t_form I posted my agreement with Southwest Airlines and gave my opinion about it on his blog. Not only did he erase my comments, but I tried posting again and he had blocked my IP address and I can not post. He is controlling the flow of information on his blog and is not allowing a free exchange. It makes it look like everyone that comes on there is in agreement with him. He is being deceptive and that is a sign that he knows he is wrong. Please fee free to contact me directly as I would like to share this with you in full detail. ... View more
