Not taking either side on the snarkiness (is that a word?) but if one becomes too snarky, they will be labeled "disruptive" and yes, they can be removed.

again, I was responding to the person who said it was rude of my to describe the other passenger like that. I described the situation pretty accurately - even had the person who was on the flight read it over.....

so hard to see how that was disruptive.

If a person has a medical condition that causes them to have an odor that is offensive they are supposed to be separated from other passengers. In fact it is even on the Jet Blue website IIRC. Since this happened a year and a half ago things might have changed. But yes, by law, if the odor is due to a legitimate medical condition then they need to be transported but apart from other passengers.

Just being odorous can get you NOT transported, or hosed down.
