If they hang a "no muslims" sign up, then its a-okay for them to deny services to muslims...right?
1) I think the security check was done by government employees (but I'm not 100% sure).
2) There are no signs (that I know of) at airports banning offensive language.
3) No, airlines don't get to pick and choose how to run their business. This is the UK we're talking about, not my version of a utopia. ;-)
