Whenever I see something going the wrong way...
I think of...
"How do they know where we're going?"

What, no tie in to abortions in China? Have to admit I'm mildly surprised the DPA even exists; $88,000, really? That's money better spent on strippers, who are after all, just young women trying to work their way through college ... God bless 'em all.
But, am I not the only pilot who responds to this news with a "meh' who cares?" After all, it is the Captain's jumpseat, not mine. What right does anyone have to make a big stink? The DPA has not representational legitimacy and should not even be recognized until it does. Even more so, if someone chooses to wear a lanyard with something that others might find offensive, aren't they putting a chip on their shoulder and daring someone to come along and knock it off?
Even more so, why would the Company consider it to be discrimination if a Captain sees a controversial lanyard and thinks "hey, I don't want my crew jawing about that stuff this leg ... lets focus on the mission here."
I'm more amazed at the sense of entilement and follow up than the Captain's decision regarding his jumpseat.
Guess, I'd make a lousy Chief. 50% of what comes to the desk would get a " really, who cares? " Running an airline should be about safety, service and efficiency. If it does not fit into those broad categories ... then what business is it to management? Tell me what I am missing.
