| Breastfeeding mother booted off plane |

| According to news reports, Emily Gillette, a 27-year-old New Mexico woman, says that when she attempted to nurse her baby on a Delta Airlines flight, the uptight stewardess gave her a blanket, asking her to cover up. When Gillette refused, the flight attendant threw mother and baby off the plane! Silly Emily--doesn't she know those things are for selling beer and cars? Any other public use is obviously obscene.
Now, what I want to know is, 1) why is breastfeeding so bad, and 2) Will they now ban lactating mothers for carrying a) more than 3 oz of liquid in seperate containers and b) carrying liquid in non-transparent containers?
I'm just dying (pardon the pun) to see what happens when suicide bombers start using breast implants to smuggle explosives onto planes.
