“If you get arrested for drunk driving and you know you haven’t had an alcoholic beverage in months, you may be ultimately vindicated but it doesn’t mean it’s a good idea — or even legal — to resist arrest on the side of the road.”
and how does your analogy fit the united passenger?
1. Are you right or wrong in any given situation?
2. What is the best course of action to address the issue of whether you are right or wrong?
Another Freeper gave a good example yesterday of a spectator at a sporting event who is removed for violating some kind of stadium or team policy. Let's say security has been called to your section because a bunch of fans are acting up and brawling. Even if you were mistakenly identified as one of the perpetrators, it isn't going to do you a damn bit of good to sit there and refuse to leave the premises on the basis that "you are right." I can guarantee you that your ass is going to be hauled out of there, and the security personnel are going to drag you down a long flight of concrete steps to get you out.
