I'm against this morality exercise. What gives the AA "morality police" the right to bar a passenger because one finds his shirt offensive? Was the passenger arrested for obscenity? If it's not against the law, it's ok to fly is the bottom line. Poor taste is not a crime and is yet another example of oppressive cabin/flight staff. . AA should try not to drive any more customers away and should set an example with the crewmember by firing him/her. The crew member's personal opinion on individual dress is offensive to me.

BizClass wants to know, do you believe that a traveler's attire, or personal hygiene issues, should be factors in whether the passenger is permitted on a flight?
