As a private enterprise an airline has every right to ask him to cover up his underwear, when it offends other paying customers. His refusal to leave the plane is why he was arrested, its called "Trespassing on Private property." Saying he has the right to wear them that way is the same mindset that allowed our air-travel system to become greyhound. Look at the way air-travelers dressed 30 years ago. You guys really want aviation to reclaim some of its former respect, then I say eliminating this kind of garbage is one small way to start. YMMV
+1 for THIS. The airline told him to pull 'em up, he didn't, fine, cant make him. They told him to get off the plane, he didn't. THIS they can/should do. Once he refused, he's trespassing. Resisting arrest is just the icing on the idiot cake. Good riddance.
