"A photo of the scantily clad man was provided to The Chronicle by Jill Tarlow, a passenger on the June 9 flight from Fort Lauderdale, Fla., to Phoenix. Tarlow said that other passengers had complained to airline workers before the plane boarded, but that employees had ignored those complaints.
US Airways spokeswoman Valerie Wunder confirmed she'd received the photo before last week's incident in San Francisco and had spoken to Tarlow, but said employees had been correct not to ask the man to cover himself.
"We don't have a dress code policy," Wunder said. "Obviously, if their private parts are exposed, that's not appropriate. ... So if they're not exposing their private parts, they're allowed to fly."
I am not sure what to think about where the world is going, except that sagging Marmon needs to make better decisions in when and how to confront what he believes as unfair treatment.
Thoughts?

He's got nice legs though. He better work it!
ReplyDeleteI saw on another blog that this man pictured is quite wealthy and flies that airline very often and a few commentators have sat next to him.
UGH! I don't want anybody in panties, male OR female sitting that close to me!!! I mean really? Would you???LOL!
ReplyDeleteI have two questions about this.
ReplyDelete1. Why is it that a black man with sagging pants with relatively modest underwear gets kicked off, but a white man wear no pants and brightly colored brief underwear doesn't? (The answer is obvious)
2. How much of an egotistical moron do you have to be not to pull your pants up when someone asks you to? Racism aside, the kid was just being a confrontational dumbass.

Yeeees, of course! Right!
As usual you've really cleared this up for everyone Thank you Anonymous!
I'm sure, would panty guy have been asked, to cover up the panties,he would have complied without a whisper. But...... since no one asked....we'll never know will we?
interesting how NO ONE asked this white guy to PUT CLOTHES ON even though you can clearly see the outline of his package as well as other unmentionables but you have a young black man with saggy pants showing boxer shorts and he gets thrown off the plane and numerous charges. Hmmm. If you can defend that then ''you'' are so racist or just stupid.

Money talks. I have a feeling if said "black" man was rich, he would have been allowed on the plane.
To the last anonymous, this is off topic, but I'd be interested to know why you put "black" in quotation marks. I don't know your race, but I have a black co-worker who does the verbal equivalent of quotation marks when she says the word "black," and I've always wondered why. Purely out of curiosity.
