[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Boy, there are some dim people participating here. Federal workers with time to waste maybe. [/quote]

Former frequent flyer here.  I'm furious about this issue because it could have been me.  [/quote]
Or me.[/quote]

You mean you could have been bumped? Yes. It happens. And maybe this incident will prompt federal regs that actually protect the customer.

But I hope you don't mean that you could have been the crazy person who doesn't listen to the police. I mean, how dumb are you if you opt to ignore instructions from the police? [/quote]

If I was on my way to a client session and knew a dozen people were waiting for me, I'd have stayed put.  They had no right to pull him from the plane, and I wouldn't have moved either.

They had no right to do what they did.  It was wrong.   You're either a United shill, or some giant apologist who is ready to sell our citizens out to corporations.  Either way, it's not a good look. [/quote]

The man was knocked unconscious, bloodied, broken nose and lost teeth. Knowing that police will drag you off against your will if you are foolish enough to ignore them, you would still stay put? Even knowing what we all know from this incident? Wow. That's just crazy.

Yes, the airline was wrong. But when the police arrive and tell you to do something---even if they are in the wrong---you should listen. Follow directions and sort it out later. You don't argue with cops...ever...period.[/quote]

You don't have to obey an unlawful order.  This was an unlawful order.   If a cop comes to my door and asks for money, I don't have to give it to them.  If I'm lawfully in my seat on the airplane, I don't have to give it to them. [/quote]

You would prefer to be dragged off? Gotcha.

You know once they call the cops, you're getting dragged off. Period.

Haven't you ever seen a person removed from a plane? A pilot or flight attendant can request it if you don't follow their directions.

Dr Dao and his family will be gazillionaires once United settles this. Wrong is wrong is wrong.   [/quote]
