It's one thing to advertise your political views on a t-shirt. Supporting that opinion with a big, pink F-bomb, censored or not, raises it to another level. The article is not at all clear which of the two things was objectionable to the airline.

That doesn't load properly over here.

If I hit refresh a lot, I can slowly read the text of the t-shirt...which I think is pretty damned rude. There are much more effective ways to make your point across - and which might leave people pondering it, rather than simply shocked.
