I don’t think that the guys that beat the hell out of the doctor are laughing now.

So you do not ever sympathize with the cops. Well maybe you need to go away, although I don’t wish bodily harm on you as you seem wish for me. I am able to tolerate views different than my own without wishing violence upon them as a way of silencing and destroying that expression.

So in addition to a severe concussion, he’s been diagnosed with sinus injuries, facial fractures, and two knocked out teeth. But yeah, he did that to himself, right?

Look the guy may be a real A hole, but there’s no doubt the cops used excessive force.

“The disgusting mishandling of the situation included everyone from the rude ticket agent who demanded that this man give up his seat on the flight …"

 

As there were no ticket agents (rude or otherwise) on board, we see this is either a flat out lie or just more emotional sensationalism without any basis or reason, logic or fact.

Dismissed.

Airport security is really bad and the “law enforcement” personal are unprofessional and really love to be given the opportunity to throw their weight around.

Many are TSA security gropers and gomers who have put in their 10 years on the nude scanners and have honed their storm trooper mind and skill set shaking down grannies and been promoted to law enforcement with badges, guns and tazers

Given the fact that there are very few airport security issues to deal with, they jump at the chance to turn any opportunity to exercise their “anti terror” training on normal everyday travelers and tourists.

The bad news for them is that cameras are everywhere now.

Unfortunately, even if the entire incident is captured on video, government bad actors will still be "exonerated" when investigated by government investigators.

I don't fault United entirely. Government regulation of airlines is at the heart of this whole incident.

Further proof that there is no problem so bad that it can't be made 100 times worse by getting the government involved.

"A passenger aboard United Airlines Flight 3411 said that one of the three officers who dragged a Kentucky doctor off the plane was “laughing” during the chaotic episode."

So? Pu**y-ass passengers should have dragged the spoiled brat 69-year old kidult off the plane themselves, before the security agents had to be called in. The spirit of Flight 93 is dead and gone.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

Others have ass written all over themselves.

I’m observant too.

Yep, he could have easily done that to himself during his acting episode for the cameras, or he could have been a man about it and simply walked off. He chose to act like a man-toddler so security obliged him and dragged him off.

I am not nor have ever been a cop or cop sympathizer by the way. I just don’t like to see someone scam someone else like dao definitely was. Anyone who thinks his acting performance was real is truly naive.

I also don’t like to see people vilified for just doing their job like the security people have been. If you think that type of work is easy then you have never tried it. It’s made especially difficult when a man-child like dao refuses to be reasonable or adult in their behavior. Short of waiting for the person to leave on his own the only option is to physically remove the offending passenger.

I see UA has declared no one will be physically removed going forward which means one of two things will likely happen. The flight will be cancelled for all the passengers on that plane or the other passengers will beat the shit out of the offending passenger next time after screaming at him to GTFO the plane. Once again proving stupid people do stupid things and there’s no cure for stupid. I wonder how many people will step up to be a witness to the beating then. Oh, and it will be a real beating, and not a fake one like with dao probably with broken ribs, arms, nose, and other body parts being damaged.

Let that happen just one time and never see another stupid person pull that nonsense again knowing what will happen to him. Even if they let the idiot stay and kick someone else off it’s amazing how many people will trip while walking by the perp with their elbow breaking teeth and a nose and a rib and a, well, you get the idea.

Basically by refusing to get off the plane the perp has said to everyone else on that plane that he is better than they are. That dog don’t hunt.

Thanks for your offer of correcting the facts.

I hope you don’t miss the larger point, which is that progressivism has caused great damage to our culture, in particular with regard to the way people treat each other.

“The TSA has infected the entire industry.”

Yes! I am waiting and hoping that this incident will spill over to bring sunlight to the TSA thuggery and abuse. It’s insane that Americans have become tolerant of the treatment of TSA employees. We’ve been the frog in the kettle and ignored it so long that probably it’s too late.

It may have been amusing hearing that first overreaction from the doctor. I thought I was hearing a wild animal braying.

He was quite the jackass.

Of course, all UA had to do was raise their offer to the psychological level of a grand and they would have had enough volunteers.

Throwing in limo service to the hotel would have iced it.

That is what happened in the on plane scuffle, having nothing in common with him doing it to himself and it explains his mouth bleeding in the video afterward.

Honestly, if they were set on engaging in a physical confrontation, they should have just tazed him, bro.

It was bungled... and “it was just their job” is another dog that won’t hunt either.

If there is a doubt that the person’s reservation will be honored... short of some wrongdoing by the person... then don’t let the person on the plane. Simple enough?

They understood that at the diner I went to the other day.

Turns out these boys were not the cops, but security personnel of a company contracted with United, in Chicago.

Is this the guy who was screaming like someone was castrating him?

Which is what the term progressive needs to be changed to regressive.
They don’t progress; they regress into to the worst instincts of human history.

When involuntarily bumped, United is supposed to provide the passenger with written documentation of their rights and explain compensation. By law.

Yes, it takes time. Which is why it happens at the gate.

But they skipped those steps and went straight to "Rocco, Guido, Big Pauly, help that old doctor find the exit!"
