Out of all of the BS that is flying around in the aftermath of Kevin Smith being ejected from a SWA flight for being a person of size, the one thing that bother me more than anything is the fact that because the overweight guy is a Hollywood name, he gets to pull his strings and get PR on his side, when in fact, this type of incident probably occurs daily considering how fat our population is on average and guess what, they never make the news, nor do they ever garner a public apology.
Which basically means that SWA should grow a pair and stop grovelling when they haven't done anything wrong. They were following company policy and did the right thing by ejecting him.

Otherwise, you're just opening the flood gates for every oversize person to come a bitchin'.
