      Trump is loving how much attention this incident is getting.

        The rest of it simply says what is, not what should be. Just because all the airlines have legal ways to involuntarily bump passengers doesn't make it the preferred option.

          You should. For the record, I'm not a fan of the 9/11 stuff either.

            For starters, figure out people need to be bumped before boarding and do it at the gate rather than kicking people off once they're already on the plane. The end result may be the same, but the latter is infinitely more frustrating and aggravating.

              I think everyone can agree with that, but that doesn't answer the question...

                  United precipitated that. They are ultimately culpable. What did they expect would happen? A pleasant conversation and exchange of recipes?

                    I agree, that United handled it incorrectly. But they are not responsible for the actual manhandling. That is on the security they called in. On top of that, I think the "doctor" was also in the wrong. United had the right to remove, and ALL parties handled it in the wrong way.

                        While still maintaining that the security mishandled the execution of the situation, you should check out the new footage. The doctor was warned, and warned about being forcibly removed, and warned with jail. He wasn't going anywhere, and threatened back with a lawsuit.

                            Vicarious liability makes united just as responsible.

                                Maybe the good doctor had other reasons he needed to be in Louisville the next morning.
                                That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.
