In any case, the people who want to play lawyer or judge should be citing precedent. In other words, similar cases that have made it to the appellate level.

In general, people should cooperate peacefully and then try the courts if they think they’ve been wronged. Even if Dao gets money, the whole world knows what a pervert he is and that he lost his medical license for illegally prescribing drugs.

The Dr. Dao on the flight is not the same Dr. Dao who’s the pervert. I imagine that’s going to be a different lawsuit.

I’ve gotta say, I’ve ignored that part of the story. We all have varying sizes of skeletons in our closets, it has no bearing on what the airline did.

i.e. it is a non-sequitur.

I think this is more about people would like to see Untied get punished.

Totally irrelevant.......Why didn't they remove the guy three rows back who was a convicted child molester or the guy in seat 21A who has a restraining order against him for abusing and stalking his ex-girlfriend?

Precedent:

http://www.espn.com/nfl/news/story?id=5201702

“We do not condone the conduct on the part of the Patriots and the team’s head coach, and we likewise refrain from assessing whether the NFL’s sanctions [and its alleged destruction of the videotapes themselves] were otherwise appropriate,” Senior Judge Robert E. Cowen wrote for the three-judge panel.

However, he said Mayer failed to prove any legal right to damages.

“At best, he possessed nothing more than a contractual right to a seat from which to watch an NFL game between the Jets and the Patriots, and this right was clearly honored,” Cowen wrote.””””


Is there a difference between buying a ticket for a plane or a seat at a stadium? I should say not. Can the NFL remove a fan who was simply watching the game, and put their employees there?
