This situation points to an ever deeper problem, in my opinion. Airlines are only one entity that has been exercising full martial law/police state powers since the "patriot act" rolled out.

What I read is that the lesbians reacted angrily to the directions given by the flight attendants. That should be reasonable, but now because of TSA and homeland security, is not. it's against the law to not do exactly what someone in a position of Power says, regardless of how nonsensical or authoritarian or racist it is.

Consider what's happening in Arizona- if a police officer thinks you look like you speak Spanish, you have to provide documentation of your citizenship. You can land in a jail if you don't comply immediately. If you want to stand quietly, and bear witness to the police brutality happening at the demonstrations at Wall Street, you can be charged with obstructing justice.

We live in bizarre, deadly times. Any young black man could tell you what would happen to him when he gets angry- even if he's justified in doing so.

When these things happen I hope it brings more awarenes to the problems of our times. It is sad that the experience of injustice brings people to the fight against it.
