That's more to support that side of the argument than you've posted.


No, it isn't. Just because it wasn't in response to you, doesn't excuse you from ignoring it.

So cop thinks in good faith he did have a warrant......

Look, if the policy states that they had legal right to remove him, then united fricked up on a customer relation standpoint, put the Asian is ultimately to blame for his physical injuries


But if the policy states that the Asian had every right to his seat, than united and the security company is to blame for the physical injuries


Yet you are arguing the Asian is to blame either way

Martial law, yeah it's kind of relevant.



In your most wild, rampant, retarded libertarian fantasy, you cannot construe this as martial law. Where do you people come from?

Based on the need to have a ticket that is issued to get on a commercial aircraft Then the need to have an accurate manifest with all souls accounted for
The people those 4 gave up their tickets for were not originally on the manifesto, this makes no sense.

It isn't. Just like other ways folks obtain a ticket isn't.

The contract of carriage doesn't cover how you become a passenger, only after you become one.

Here's another

Philly Atty says United was dead wrong

quote:

Under certain conditions, airlines can bar passengers from boarding - if the passenger is unruly or intoxicated or on a terrorist watch list - but United had no right to remove Dao, says aviation law expert Arthur Wolk, a Center City attorney who read the 45-page “contract of carriage.”

Wolk says Dao “absolutely” had the right to the seat, and this was not a case of “overbooking,” he says, because all the passengers had seats. What happened to Dao was “assault and battery,” he says.

“There’s absolutely no humanity left in the airline business,” Wolk says, adding that United routinely finishes low in surveys of passenger satisfaction. “I would sue their asses off.”

The manifest doesn't exist until the cabin door shuts

Well I must have ignored it then So humour me. Does it address the terms of the contract and the specific verbiage?

I think his reply to this was "yes"

Unless I'm just getting the 2 posters mixed up now, the 2 who keep saying, in effect, "Just cause" without backing it up with anything whatsoever.

The fact is, there are other experts that think otherwise. He keeps repeating the same lawyer nonsense, like it means anything.

United could have deemed the flight overbooked simple by the fact that they subtract the 4 seats as if they are not even on the plane to begin with. Just another thought before I hit the bed.


100% correct.

Nope closes at ten. I just decided I like the view

Then you broke the law and deserve to be removed

But here, the contract possibly says you can stay past ten....

Neither is "the experts in the field say otherwise."

It's more of an argument than you've presented, clearly.

So if experts have differing opinions, then you sure as hell don't know with 100% accuracy.


And that has been my point all along.

Good faith? It's their job to enforce the law, not go blindly into an airplane because an airline tells them to. They should assess the whole situation.

I agree with you that they had good faith that the airline was telling the truth, but they could also face assault and battery charges because they didn't look before they leaped.
