'L Word' star booted from plane for kissing girlfriend
 

yep ..... that is so bad .....:warning

Actress says attendant told her Southwest 'was a 'family' airline and kissing was not ok'

LOS ANGELES ? Former "The L Word" star Leisha Hailey complained in a stream of Twitter messages on Monday that she and a girlfriend were kicked off a Southwest Airlines flight in a dispute over their kissing on a plane.

Hailey, 40, tweeted that a flight attendant had told her that Southwest "was a 'family' airline and kissing was not ok," and that she and her companion were then "escorted off the plane for getting upset about the issue."

"SouthwestAir endorses homophobic employees," she tweeted. "Since when is showing affection towards someone you love illegal? I want to know what Southwest Airlines considers a 'family.'"

She went on to tweet: "Boycott SouthwestAir if you are gay. They don't like us."

Hailey, who starred on Showtime network's "The L Word" as Alice, a bisexual magazine writer and radio host, also demanded a public apology.

The airline issued a statement saying initial reports it received about the incident "indicate that we received several passenger complaints characterizing the behavior as excessive."

"Our crew, responsible for the comfort of all customers on board, approached the passengers based solely on behavior and not gender," the airline said. "The conversation escalated to a level that was better resolved on the ground, as opposed to in flight."

The statement concluded: "We regret any circumstance where a passenger does not have a positive experience on Southwest and we are ready to work directly with the passengers involved to offer our heartfelt apologies for falling short of their expectation."

An airline spokesman declined to comment beyond the prepared statement.

The incident comes a little over three weeks after another celebrity, Green Day rocker Billie Joe Armstrong, was complained he was booted from a Southwest flight in Oakland, California, because he was wearing his baggy pants too low.

democracy? who are we kidding...

???????????

This has NOTHING to do with democracy.

Free Alice! Well, you know what I mean.

I've been boycotting airlines since the patriot act went into affect.
I have no idea why the rest of people are stupid enough to let the airlines control
their lives like that.

They grab crotches, dig in hair, have bras removed.

Americans are weak fucking cowards to allow this shit.

And I do mean coward in that people are so afraid of Al Queda that they allow all
their rights to be thrown out the window.

Give me liberty of give me death.
Somebody said that because he was not a coward.

Fucking lesbos!

I'd have kicked them off too...

what were they doing if they were able to get more than one passenger complaint about their 'showing affection'?

Hmmm
 

Fucking Lesbos... I would of filmed it then released it as a GF video !:thumbsup

This isn't about them being gay. It's about improper behavior in public. You can't get on an airplane and spend forty minutes making out. Or even two minutes. Same thing in a restaurant. These places have customers, and while it's nice to see two people enjoying each other's company, it's not okay to be sucking face for minutes at a time.

I was on a southwest flight from Kansas City to Las Vegas when something similar happened. Two rows in front of me was a couple who was making out excessively before we even left the gate. The ladies directly in front of me complained and the flight attendant asked them to "restrain themselves" for the duration of the flight.

They continued despite the warning so the pilot came back and told them they'd have to either agree to sit separately or leave the plane. As it turned out they were on their way to get married in Vegas and were very polite about being separated for the flight.

They were straight and if they hadn't agreed to sit separately they would have gotten kicked off the plane too.

Exactly!

What if it was 2 guys kissing the face off each other and young kids were looking over? I sure as fuck wouldn't want kids of mine to see that shit.

There's a time and a place. If you can't control yourself for a short flight or whatever, they don't bother going...

yep, some guys think 'minority groups' should be able to act anyway they like. what if some guy from mbla decided to start fucking some kid on the seats??? :2 cents:

I wouldn't want to sit next to couple "making it out". Straight or gay. Get a room.

Publicity stunt:2 cents: How else are these ugly hags going to get media attention?

This thread needs a pic.

:throwup:throwup:throwup

Bullshit - I've seen many people making out in bars, restaurants, buses, subways and other public places and never seen anyone asked to leave.

You should get out more. :2 cents:

1. Its not the airlines
2. They probably grab penises smaller than yours every day. Don't be shy.
3. There is a difference between boycotting and not being able to afford a ticket.

Ah the "I don't want to see that crowd" is in here.

It was a peck on the lips. I've seen plenty of pecks by straights on planes and they don't get in trouble. I also see people practically lying on top of each other with no issues.

Don't bait the homophobe closet case that secretly longs for a big cock.

I hate it when any group play the hate card when asked to play by the rules.

1. Boycotting the government doesn't work
2. Your experience with grabbing penis is not relevant
3. You personal poverty is not my business.
4. eat shit and die

:1orglaugh

PDA's are stupid anyway. I'm glad the bitches got kicked off.

So, all of the women on L Word are actually gay? Not really great actresses, if they're just doing what they normally do.

Or maybe this is an "only in America" situation? Maybe you should travel more?

What the fuck does any of that have to do with democracy? I really fail to see the connection.

Lol yes..the USA is the only country with airport security and we all know the USA = the world.

/sarcasm.


Airlines do NOT control your LIFE(which is what you claim).

I do agree that the security measures have become a bit to much in my personal space, so to speak.

I am sure it was more than a Kiss, I bet they were making out to "make a statement"

What about a Flight???

Bars = 18+
Even with that I was in a bar, the female was dancing on me and went way low, security said she can not do that. But yes, I live in the bible belt.

I take it all back - I thought some girl kissed another one - I did not realise it was child sex.

Ah, a peck on the lips. You were on the plane and saw them?

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh wow

security cock blocking

hmm
how about going to the bathroom like the straight people

And how the fuck do you know this ??

I love sw airlines!

This is probably how It played.

They were kissing some in the seats and someone maybe complained, after the flight attendant told them the rules they though "ahh perfect attention whore media coverage story" and started fooling around even more to the point where they got escorted off the plane.

Fuck those lesbo skanks!

Rapper dude rules! :pimp

But do you really think if she was making out with a guy she would have been asked to stop? I don't think so!

billie joe was kicked out cause he was wearing his pants too low. so I too think it's not about homophobia. i hate it how you can't say a word against someone cause you'll be accused of being homophobic or racist or whatever. Not saying these girls did something wrong, i wasn't there and didn't see it
