Give the world a break here, would ya?
A lawyer for the two women said they were humiliated and degraded almost three years ago when the attendant said: "Eenie, meenie, minie, moe; pick a seat, we gotta go." Citing an old racist version of the rhyme, the sisters said it was aimed at them.
The attendant said she had used the rhyme before, didn't know its history, and didn't mean to offend anyone.
The women decided to sue out of frustration after Southwest Airlines would not take their complaint seriously.
And neither did the jury...recognizing, as did Southwest Airlines, as did most of us that this is an attempt at social extortion by two would-be opportunists.
