If I had been on that flight and saw the old guy getting the business I would have given up my seat. That fact that NOBODY on that flight did that says a lot about how selfish our society has become.
The real story is how none of the other passenger would be willing to give up their seat for the old guy. Anyone of them could have made this painful situation stop at anytime. Nobody did. That is the real story.
Yes. Anybody on that flight who was distressed over the incident should have given up his seat.
