Kilt Wearing Protesters at FAA
To protest a new dress code at the Federal Aviation Administration in the United States, some male air traffic controllers have been wearing dresses and kilts. Unhappy with the restrictions on various colors of clothing and arbitrarily enforced rules, it seems that they wish to point out the ridiculous nature of the new code.
Personally, I can’t help but think the kilt will be a more effective tool in their battle with the clothing tyrants. A boy in a dress is often seen as funny or sad. A kilted protester, however, has a history against proscribed dress on his side, and may wear the kilt with pride.
Long have men been subject to the poor and limited choices offered by the Trouser Tyrants. Pants are dead! Long Live the Kilt!

Now, if onle the TSA wouldn’t give me crap when I wear my kilts through screening. Even my UK original makes the machine beep sometimes. I had one screener tell me my kilt was inapporiate dress for the screening. I wish I had the marbles to tell him that my counrty men died to allow me to wear what the heck I want to.
I saw kilts are much better for airport screenings, less places for me to hide things.
