would people be happier if the crew that needed to board the plane didn't get to their destination backing up airline traffic in many airports and delaying thousands from their destination?...

For the 97th time the airline is not allowed to remove someone from their seat because the airline wants the seat. Once a person is seated the airline needs a cause to remove. It is very clearly stated in their own rules on their website. The CEO admitted they were wrong and said it should never have happened and it will never happen again.
We don’t get to treat someone like a nonperson because they have committed and were punished for a crime in the past. They have the same rights as any other citizen except as mandated by law such as not being able to vote in some situations or have a liquor or gun license.
