That has nothing to do with the situation. It does in my mind but I do not think it matters in this case. Anyway America has lost all of its so called Common Sense anyway it appears.
This is irrelevant. Publishing it aids the fascists at united and the chicago police.
It was not overbooked.
So according to that it was okay in the end that he was tossed off a flight where he paid for his seat; not the fact that he was tossed because Untied needed the space for some crew member. Now Untied feels justified in tossing him because, see, he did whatever he did twelve years ago.
Don’t make no never mind,United AL is going to pay him a “Hugh” chunk a change.
who gives a sh8t
It doesn’t matter;has nothing to do with the airline incident.
When you’re on a plane, you’re there as a guest, just like you are in a hotel. If you’re asked to leave...for whatever reason, you must leave. You will be reimbursed.
I am flying a lot more often and I am thinking of sending American a letter. I fly American. And I am going to tell them it’s ok with me if they kick off anyone who either A. puts 2 items in the overhead. B. Puts his stuff way in the front overhead even though his seat is towards the back. C. Immediately stands up and crowds me to get off and tries to go before others in front of him do, or D. brings his food on board so the whole plane smells like Burger King.
And they can kick these people off in the same manner as United did the China man. In fact.....I’ll help.
Fool.

Completely irrelevant.
Again? This story was posted some 3-4 times yesterday. With hundreds of replies.
Oh well. Today is a new day. And so we must repost again and make the same arguments for or against the doctor and/or United Airlines.
Oh yeah. Plenty of knee jerking must continue also. In fine FReeper tradition.
Like this: United should be sued for kicking that poor doctor’s ass. He did NOTHING to deserve this.
/uninformed knee jerking off.
Witnessed a very rude event by a United flight attendant two years ago on a flight from DFW to Columbia, SC.
The pilot had announced the UA flight was overbooked, that they were working on the problem and would be getting underway in an estimated 30 minutes.
Flight was delayed severely and seated passengers were asking in a very polite reasonable manner for an ETA or flight time once underway so that they could dial ahead and inform their contacts on the other end.
The UA flight attendant responded very rudely with a stern tone that it was not her responsibility to ask such things.
I stared for a moment in disbelief because the flight attendant was standing next to the people asking and looking at the back of the cabin when she responded. It was so disrespectful and it was the first time I had seen such an exchange in an airline cabin.
Because the exchange was so unordinary and aggressive, I listened intently at what the passengers said next to capture any info that might explain the nature of the flight attendant’s response. I caught a glimpse of one of the passengers to see if there any manner of dress or body language that would cause such a disrespectful response. Both passengers involved were well-dressed, clean, polite.
The questions had been presented by two passengers sitting in different rows on different sides of the cabin:
“Excuse me, can I please get an ETA to Columbia or a flight duration time after takeoff?”
The other passenger followed:
“I also need to know a flight time so I can tell my relative who is waiting on the other end, thank you.”
The passengers involved reacted also in disbelief and remarked to the flight attendant that it was a question asked politely and that it was confusing why the response was so aggressive. In other words, the passengers were just as shocked as the rest of the seated passengers that could see or hear the aggressive and disrespectful response.
Some passengers were muttering comments that reflected what I was thinking, that they had never heard such a tone and that they would think twice before taking another United flight again.
So I am biased about this incident.
I don’t see that the Vietnamese doctor had initiated violence. I also see this past history as a smear and in any event a nonviolent series of charges the vast majority of which were dropped and were not specified telling me they were likely frivolous.
I think this doctor has a strong case against United and should proceed to take their management to the cleaners,
It doesn't matter if he was or wasn't a convicted felon. He has paid his debt to society. This is the old "Blame the victim" ploy.
In reality United Airlines, treatment of one of their customers and paying passengers who had already boarded the plane and taken his seat was treated criminally. They beat him unconscious and illegally removed him from the airplane. If they had wanted to remove passengers they have to do so before they board the plane and have taken their seats.
United Airlines is about to deservedly get the pants sued off of them. UAL lost nearly A BILLION DOLLARS in value today alone.
No soft drinks on the plane ... only punch
One free Carry off.
