My outrage isn't fake, and I don't many others are faking theirs either. Trying to denigrate people who disagree with you by claiming their feelings are fake is a shitty thing to do. I know it is done every day online, but it is still a shitty thing to do.

No doubt snowflakes are going to snowflake.
But this is all on UAL and they deserve what's coming. You want me to negotiate with me to give up my seat in return for agreed-upon compensation? Unless I have zero schedule flexibility I am going to work with you. You want to physically drag me out of a seat for which I paid and in which you have already seated me? **** YOU.

I am very interested in hearing how much they offered him, why he was chosen to be removed and how they defend what they did. This should make a great case study on how to manage passengers in this situation. |

I think when this all shakes out, Dr. Dao is going to be able to buy those pictures of Walter Brennan he's always wanted...

It's not very often that a massive horrible company/industry like this gets it's ass handed to it like this. Air travel used to be fun. Now it's like going to dentist. Everybody hates these ****ers.
It's beautiful, man! |

Sure would be nice if the next bunch taken down by an incident like this is the TSA, but probably not. Hell, this is another Tuesday morning for them.

Yeah like I said in the beginning, by the time United settles this out of court, the doc is going to be a wealthy man. As others have said, hopefully this changes some policies out there pertaining to getting bumped. The airlines have really gone downhill over the last couple of decades.

I got into an discussion with a TSA pre screener in KPHX one day over government / state issued ID cards.. I tried to use my Oklahoma State issues CCW licenses and they person argued for minutes that it wasnt a state issued licenses... IT HAD THE SAME DAMN INFORMATION ON IT AS MY DL AND PASSPORT. I felt like going all Frazod on them. |
