Dao was responsible for what happened. He should be in jail.

Dao was responsible for what happened. He should be in jail.

You should be in jail.

As hard as you've power bottomed for the airport police in these threads, you'd get off on it.

[Mollypitcher1]

Amen.

You know I’m just stubborn enough that if they tried to make me leave a plane after I’m seated I’d probably refuse too. I’ve taken their offer of money and a hotel for a layover once but it was while we were still waiting to board. Once I’m on the plane I’d probably refuse to leave too. A lot of people would.

[Avalon Memories]

What you posted about Dao being responsible for what happened is absolutely 100% not true. The man paid for his ticket, peacefully boarded the plane, took his seat and just as peacefully settled in for the flight. He did not initiate anything that happened afterwards but only responded. He had his reasons for not volunteering to give up his seat. Airline personnel singled him out for intimidation and bullying when he didn’t voluntarily give up his seat. The airport security personnel then took it to the next level. This was totalitarian impulses writ large.

So lets see if I follow you logic correctly. Lets say I am replacing my front door with a new door that I really like that happens to be the last one the store has in stock. I make the purchase, bring the door home and have it installed, but wait! One of the store employees decides that they want that very door, and given that it is the last one in stock, the owner of said store demands that I remove it from my house and give it to his employee. When I of course say NO, the police are called, the door is ripped from its hinges doing damage to my home in the process and I am the one going to jail? Just trying to follow your logic.

Thinking and not following the mob? This won’t end well. There is a lot of this story that doesn’t make sense. I have searched and can’t find any information he was arrested after being removed from the flight. In this day, cops aren’t going to beat someone like they are alleging and let him walk away.

FR is a site that typically has well informed and intelligent members. You seem to be an anomaly.

“Dao was responsible for what happened. He should be in jail.”

Would you settle for just handcuffing him to his bed until he gets out of the hospital?
