You edited it after I pointed it out. I even posted the entire message for you.
It's weird to deny it.

I copied the same link back into the first one (that worked the first time) to make sure it was working (again). It did then, and it does now.
Like I said, it's precious you think me being shady is the only way to get a broken link.

Searching my house without a warrant is illegal
Removing me from the house WHEN THEY HAVE A WARRANT, and I wont let them in, is legal
They had the legal right to remove the unruly passenger

If United calls security to have someone removed from a flight, they did it whether it was them physically doing it or not.
That isn't how it works.
The police were following United direction, it was a civil matter and United was saying he was breaking their contract. If the guy was simply sitting in his seat, he was doing absolutely nothing against the airport law. He was just not following Uniteds orders. He had a ticket and was in his seat, please explain what law was being broken?
Therefore, if United was wrong in asking him to leave this is almost all on United. The only way the police are in trouble is if they used improper technique to remove him and if their protocol should of been to walk away instead of removing him.

So would demanding a passenger to leave who has a legal right to be there, no?
In your opinion, what did this passenger do to be unruly?

Denying it is still weird.

this lawyer seems like the ultimate ambulance chaser
I know United is in the wrong, but my God lawyers are the scummiest group of people on the face of the earth

So United needed those seats for their employees to get to work the next morning...Irony at it's best...

Watching and I think the opposite, respectfully. His presentation isn't over the top, IMO. He's used pretty plain and succinct language throughout. That firm is going to rip an a-hole into both United and City of Chicago it sounds like. You can tell his team doesn't play.

That lawyer just won the lawsuit lottery...

The man was clearly being unruly. UA had established rules and policies, and after being informed of them, the man refused to comply. Police were then called.
Why was he being unruly?

Daughter is pretty cute, too. Well-educated and likely well off family by appearances. That could be their lead in court as well. They don't need the money but will gladly be the new face of airline passenger respect and safety. I'd take a concussion and two missing teeth for the opp

We also don't know they were not. United thought they were within the rights set-forth in their code of carriage to deny the passenger entry on the final manifest. The argument is simply when a flight is determined to be oversold. If it is when the decision is made then United was within the rights of their agreement. If it is when the system information has been input and all staff notified then they did not have authority to assess involuntary denial of passage. Lodging + meals or rental car, in addition to $1k cash per seat and full refund of ticket or exchange plus upgrade and they would have saved a pretty penny here. May have even had more than 4 people volunteer. Would have to think moving forward all airlines will up the ante to garner volunteers. In the end this is a good thing for air travelers moving forward.

They also said it wasnt oversold after the fact... But as some pointed out that could be to try and blow this over.
My question is if the Dr wants to really be a pain in the arse and bring this to court (he won't) that statement will bite UA in the arse.

Did they? We had a back and forth yesterday because you kept posting the same quote which was "overbooked" and I tried for a couple of pages to explain the difference to you and why United chose the verbiage.
