“The incident on United flight 3411 was not in accordance with our standard operating procedure and the actions of the aviation security officer are obviously not condoned,” Aviation Department spokeswoman Karen Pride said. “That officer has been placed on leave effective today pending a thorough review of the situation."

Once again the perp is protected and the victims, the security people in this case, are prosecuted.
This is a big problem in America and to see it being condoned here on FR is shocking.
From the video I’ve seen this perp was being completely unreasonable and acting like a spoiled 3 year old. Time is money and that perp needed to be removed from the flight. Since he refused to be a man and walk off; the security people simply had no choice other than to remove him physically like the spoiled brat he acted like.
Remember; the security people nor the flight crew knew this perp had severe mental health issues. That may be something else that changes going forward. Mental health patients like this may need to be cuffed and strapped while on the plane for their protection and the protection of other paying customers and of course; the flight crew.
