Sure; the guy bleeding out in the foreground was a known tea smuggler and the fellow in the red hat was reputed to be gay.

Fuck'em both, in fact the hell with them all for associating with their ilk.

That damned town square was closed to both foot and horse traffic for hours, causing untold inconvenience to others.

The Dr was entirely orderly till they decided to chuck his ass in favor of a deadheading crew member.

Nobody put her up to that. She was looking for a reason to act like a savage and i guess someone gave her one.

So she decided to be disruptive in the hopes they'd forcibly remove her from the plane and she'd get her some airline money. She probably still will... and that's what's worse...

But the doctor was a felon and all allegedly gay so it doesn't matter.

And......CAPITALISM; although instead of engaging in capitalism and paying what was necessary to buy back a seat from one of their customers, the airline chose to engage in heavy handed thugism.

United is a shitty airline....but they often have the best air fare to certain common destinations....which is why people fly on United.  I've flown United many times....never had any major problems though.  

United has poor booking procedures.....which does lead to over booked flights.  Again....refer to their prices....which is why people still fly United.

The doctor is a shithead.  Look at his record as a doctor and it's easy to understand why he thought he was special.  He apparently can't follow rules...both on a plane and in his medical practice.  He earned everything bad that happened to him.  Failure to follow simple instructions is supposed to hurt....nature designed things that way to make bad decisions a self correcting problem.    


In conclusion...United's service sucks.  The doctor sucks.  But, the bottom line is the doctor can't follow instructions.  Fuck him.

The Chicago Aviation Cops screwed up by:
1. Deciding to aggressively intercede over a business matter without pressuring United to exhaust their options that didn't involve using force or ensuring United complied with the legal requirements to inform the passengers in writing. (poor Officer's discretion)
2. Concussing, breaking the nose, and knocking 2 front teeth out of a 69 year old paying customer. (Excessive force)
3. Allowed their injured charge to wander dazed back on the plane bleeding and distraught. (Sheer incompetence)

And since we like to talk about histories... their lead administrator is crooked and one of the 3 cops had a history of abusing his authority (all 3 suspended for violating policy (and incompetence)).

what most have spoken out about has been not in favor of a felon, if he served his time what difference did it make? How, just how did it enter into the mix except some would want to muddy the water with the accusation......What many have objected to was that the airline tried to buy the seats back cheap. They had a full plane of paying passengers and they tried to open up seats on the cheap. Hell, if they needed the seats that badly offer more, night's stay in a hotel, meal voucher, limo service, first class seating on the next flight out and a grand in compensation.......but no, they'd rather kick paying customers out of their seats, garner bad feelings from the passengers and the corresponding bad press. Airline acting like cheap assholes is what caused the problem not some guy who committed a felony a decade ago and was just try to catch a flight home. The guy's felony had absolutely nothing to do with the airlines piss-poor planning, piss-poor community relations, and piss-poor managers.

His history of not following instructions is very relevant.  He couldn't follow instructions as a doctor (which are FAR more stringent than the rules for an airline passenger) than it stands to reason why he is unable to follow instructions on something as simple as an air plane flight.  

United sucks.  I'm not disagreeing with that.  But, the issue was caused by a passenger who refused to follow instructions.  Plain and simple.  

I've flown many times.  I've never been dragged off a plane nor have I ever received ANY injuries on a plane.  Know why?  I follow instructions.....crazy how that shit works eh?

I assume you don't like overselling because it is a "terrible business practice"?
The alternative is to make all tickets non-refundable/ non-transferable.
Can't make the flight?  Oh well, buy another ticket
The reason the airline 's oversell is because some people are either morons (forgot they were supposed to fly), or something occurs where they cannot make the flight. Most of these people will get some sort of refund presently.

The thesis of this thread is completely incorrect.  The cause of the United situation and any cascading situations  is the fault of a dispute conflict resolution system that has no incentives to actually be used.

I am of the view that United violated the terms of the contract when they removed the passenger from the aircraft.  But so what?  What if he had left when the security showed up and United was using the color of law to enforce the terms of it's civil contract? Let's say he was transported a day later - what are his actual damages?  Maybe, and I am just picking randomly here, $10,000 for being delayed.  That's hardly enough to be worth the lawsuit to enforce the terms of the contract.

So whether United was right or wrong - once he was on the plane the passenger had no incentive to get off; in getting off he was never going to be made whole and in not getting off voluntarily he was able to get the airline to act excessively - because even if they were contractually correct they exceeded their rights by having him dragged off and they will pay.  So by having a non-negotiable contract of adhesion there is no real equitable conflict resolution.  And that is the fault of the airline.

Probably not - but it's not a particularly interesting question or even, from the contractual issue, relevant.  United was in violation of it's contract with the passenger - but for the passenger, to leave, and enforce his contract rights later would not have been ruminative.  Even if United was contractually correct they had other remedies - using the color of law to resolve their private issues was excessive.  United drafted a contract the passenger no incentive to comply with.  They should have considered that before hand.

Jesus.

What part of "It's their plane and you signed on to a contract" do you not understand?

Airline is under no obligation to do anything but tell you to get off, if they wish, and then give your money back.

If you don't get off, you are trespassing and they have the right to call the law to make you get off. IF you resist LE, there's a good chance you might bump your head and possibly break your nose...or worse.

This is not rocket surgery.

Quoted:
After the recent United Airlines debacle where a doctor was forcibly removed from a plane that caused a media firestorm, police seemed afraid to remove the beligerant woman when they arrived. And she took full advantage, even referencing the doctor and said she wouldn’t be as nice as he was.

The woman continues acknowledging that she is the one keeping the plane on the ground because of her wild, unruly behavior.

“‘You might want to get your mother***ing pilot and all your f***ing crew ready because ain’t nobody going nowhere,” she says.

And when police arrive, she warns, “Trying to get me off this mother***er and it’s going to go down.”

Since police can not remove disruptive people from the aircraft now everyone must get off the plane.

Punish everyone because you liberals can't accept being told to get off a plane.

Only "Liberals" were defending the Dr.?

Seriously?

What United did was fucked up.

Disruptive people SHOULD BE KICKED off of planes.

The Dr. WAS NOT being disruptive. He was being illegally removed from the plane and assaulted.

I read the contract for United. It says nothing of this sort.

Have you read it? If so, tell me where it says the captain, or anyone else with the airline, has this authority.

You ever read that contract?

You can be relieved of your seat for any reason at any time, basically.

The captain, as an extension of the airline, has absolute authority to boot will anyone from the plane.

All the parts where it says, "Seat assignments not guaranteed and may change without notice" and "service not guaranteed" is a good start.

It is THEIR PLANE.


Analogies. I know GD loves 'em.

Let's say you're in Sam's club, to which you've paid a membership fee. There is some reason that management decides to close the store for the day and asks the customers to leave.

But, you know your rights and decides to tell the staff that you refuse to leave and sit there and throw a tantrum like a two year old because you paid your membership and won't go.

Cops are called to remove you but you resist and get hurt.

Whose fault is it that you got hurt?

I wonder what percentage of GD would have been Tories in the American Revolution.  I bet it would be way higher than the 20% that were at the time.

LOL. Where'd you pull that stat from?

And, being asked to leave private property is a little different than resisting tyrannical overreach from government.

Is this the push for a federal takeover of the airlines? Full blown TSA crewed gubbment cheese airways? Moar government regulation is what started the overbooking to try to make some money practice in the first place.
