re: Doctor dragged off flight was convicted of trading drugs for sex

And some passengers near him were being interviewed this morning. They said that the way United presented the events was not how they recall. United said they tries multiple times to get him to deplane, but the passengers said they only recall one attempt before the police were brought in.

---

I also think that the video provides some context. If the guy was being truly unruly, I'm betting the people filming would have cheered or shown support for removing an unruly passenger. The people in this video were clearly horrified.

But they actually oversold by one and quickly handled that.

In this case, they brought on 4 members of United, so I wonder if that changes things a bit since they weren't paying customers.

If you read the fine print on your arline ticket , it absolutely says that your seat is not guaranteed and that the airline may remove you from your flight at THEIR discretion (presumably only while the flight is on the ground LOL)

There are currently no laws that prevent this, so the contract is valid once you purchase a ticket.

It's exactly no different than if you go to an LSU , or UA, or Georgia football game and make an arse of yourself and are asked to leave midway through the first quarter, Well yeah you bought a ticket that was good for the entire game, but that ticket clearly creates a contract which states that the University may ask you to leave at any time at THEIR discretion, and you better believe that if you don't leave , they will call the cops.

Was the airline an a-hole about this? Absolutely. Did they do anything illegal? Absolutely not.

Was the doctor an a-hole about this? Absolutely, when the cops were called he should have got up and walked off the plane with some dignity. Did the doctor do anything illegal? Absolutely, the cops were called because the guy was no longer welcomed on the plane and wouldn't leave, thus he was trespassing.

This guy isn't a victim , any more than Micheal Brown was a victim, you can't fight with police .

The police were called, and he went full retard.

What does that mean? My impression of "full retard" is your post.

in this case 3 police officers

There were no police orders. There was no fight with police. There were no police on the plane.

That is why the airport security officer who knocked the victim unconscious, then dragged him off the plane, has been suspended.

And had they booted the smallest number of paying customers possible, this guy wouldn't have been removed. They can't kick paying customers out and put their own employees on the plane.

---

Of course they can. They can remove you for ANY reason at their discretion. Why is that so hard to understand?

Your ticket is a contract, as long as it contains nothing illegal, it is a valid contract. It is NOT illegal for an airline to say "we can remove you at any time for any reason" therefor if you agree to that stipulation, and you are agreeing by purchasing the ticket , then that contract is valid and you haev agreed "the airline can cancel my ticket at any time"

It's really no differnet than for example, warrantless searches that athe TSA performs at airports. How is that legal? Well you see, the government doesn't need a warrant if you CONSENT to the search. Wait, you say you didn't consent to any search before you flew last time? Well turns out you did, because again your airline ticket is a contract and in that contract you have agreed to consent to being searched before boarding the plane, and thus you can't sue the TSA for searching you without a warrant, and if they do find something illegal, it is fully admissible in a court of law.

This is CLEARLY a case of people not understanding their rights.

You absolutely do not have a right to be on a plane just because you bought a ticket.

Airport security isn't the police man. It's alarming how deferential you are to authority.

---

Airport security is a division of the Department of Aviation which is part of the Department of Transportation and they absolutely are for all intents and purposes police.

And what I am deferential to is the rule of law. The rule of law in this case says that the man should have got his fat arse of the plane.

You bear a mountain of animus at a man who literally did nothing wrong here . . . up until the point the 70y/o was knocked unconscious by a now suspended Barney Fife.

He wasn't that fat you crazy person. The people who mismanaged this are singular. It's amazing to me how cucked you are.

So... this is a completely different guy right?

I mean if its not him United better freaking pray this can't be traced back to them in any way or that settlement just added a few million.

What does this have to do with United overbooking a flight and then using hired thugs to assault him simply for choosing not to relinquish the service he paid for and which they were legally obligated to provide?

Apparently the guy isn't a victim and is akin to Michael Brown because he refused to comply to a security team, which isn't the police.

We have some deferential tards here.
