This story is actually a fairly hot topic here in South America, where everyone thinks its completely ridiculous. These kind of stories make us North Americans look like a bunch of George Bush clones.

I thought Burqas are used in Afghanistan or in Saudi Arabia. It is news to me that women are now enforced to wear that in the United States as well. 
Of course there is a limit to what is acceptable, e.g. coming barefoot or just in a bikini. I hope that we don't get such ideas much more often! Tolerance is something that seems to get much rarer in the last few years.

For what it's worth, I suspect most people in North America think it's ridiculous too.

Several existing discussions of this incident, with most U.S. posters agreeing that SouthWest over-reacted, such as this thread with 130+ posts in the SouthWest forum and this one right here in Newsstand.

You are too sexy for this plane too sexy for this plane
This plane will leave without you
You are too sexy for that skirt too sexy for that skirt
So sexy it hurts
And you are too sexy for Milan too sexy for Milan
New York and Japan
And you are too sexy for this flight
Too sexy for this flight
No way you will board dressed like that
You are a model you know what I mean
And you do your little turn on the catwalk
Yeah on the catwalk on the catwalk yeah
You do your little turn on the catwalk
And I cant be bothered to adapt the rest of the song

There are a bunch of other threads on this topic- mods, merger time perhaps?
