Call it what you will
When a policy is made that impacts only a specific group based on a physical/mental, cultural, or other percieved or real trait, its discrimination. Yes this is a capitalist society...yes they are in it for the money, but lets face it they pack people in like sardines to make money and even average size people are often uncomfortable. I would be greatly offended if I was asked to weigh in or watch someone else go through that humiliation. It is offensive. Now should they have the right to have weight limits, sure, but at some point someone really needs to measure the rears of the average american and lets get seats to fit those rumps all across the great USA.
