Kudos to those brave men and women. We have been sheep long enough.

despite anything that's being said, so many of you refuse to budge from the "it's the mandates". Spirit had a similar situation a couple of months ago when they had to cancel many flights. Both Spirit and Southwest don't use hubs....so there's a cascade effect. If there's been "numerous pictures" then they are of the same thing. if you actually do some research, there was one photo in someone's tweet. Per Snopes: We reached out to Benny Johnson (who tweeted the photo) for more information to help authenticate the image but did not receive a response. For all of these reasons, on Oct. 14, we changed the rating from “Research In Progress” to “Unproven.”

as for sheep, I know of no bigger sheep than those who take everything they here from Fox News or the like as fact without verifying anything.
