    I know it's actually a serious conversation everyone is having about the incident. But being serious just isn't my thing most of the time.


    I bet you do a lot of flying. Or traveling for that matter.

      Bingo! I want to know how they selected the 4 that were selected to exit the plane. Kind of ironic that they didn't try to drag a 6'5 250# fella out of his seat.

        I beg to differ, there was no reasonable reason to bloody a grown *** man who paid for his seat, you do what you can to accommodate the consumer, and file your employees in as you can. If your employees are not where you need them, you should have scheduled better, not forcefully evict a paid customer. Period.

            Simple. A lot of people don't have back bones.

              united did that...hmmph...didnt know that. Perhaps his actions had some to do with his treatment by airport police...is that possible?

              I'll take it a step further...if someone is going to be that much of an *** abt a flight...i don't want him on a plane with me..period, no excuse for a grown man to act that way over a flight

                United was able to force volunteerism with three browshirts. Great way to make non-volunteers comply unwillingly.

                  So resisting law enforcement takes backbone? The hipocrisy on here is unreal. A cop shoots someone and it's "do what you're told, and you won't get shot", but a flight crew asks a passenger to get off of aircraft, and it's kiss my *** and make me. Unbelievable.

                    Only flew one time. Nobody asked me to give up my seat. If they had they wouldn't have made me look like an idiot by dragging me off of it like a dead deer either though.

                      They didn't force him to volunteer...they enforced a contract he was party to...when he didn't comply...they escalated to the police...he was (or should if been) aware if his risk when he submitted payment for the flight...his ignorance of his committment is no excuse

                      Would the cc company be out of line if they come after him for not paying his bill or is he on the hook for that simply b/c he was aware he was supposed to pay it?? He is contractually obligated to both the airline & cc company equally no? Is it the cc company's fault if he chooses to be an ***, make a scene & refuse to pay his bill?

                        United asked for volunteers.
                        The victim refused to volunteer.
                        United had to call in brownshirts to get victim to volunteer with force.

                          Bill was paid. Your defense for them, no matter what the contract says, is ridiculous.

                            And if no one volunteers, then the airline will pick who is to be removed.

                              Their contract is their defense. Pretty simple really.

                                That...is not what happened...they asked for volunteers, didn't receive enough for the compensation they were offering (which was probably above what they were contractually obligated to offer), did not have enough folks take the oppty & as a last resort implemented their contractual right to excuse the lowest person on the over sold pole
