Yep. And I am arguing that there is a lot of analysis over something that should not have been a media firestorm, but a simple dispute with an airline that probably happens 1000s of times per day.
Take away the kicking and screaming and you have a standard airline dispute of which you can find thousands.
- muh_gradle 10y agoThe kicking and screaming. That's certainly a nice way of putting it.
- chillwaves 10y agoGP is so sympathetic to the airline, it is a caricature of a discussion. Yes, kicking and screaming and let's ignore the material damage and bloody assault to the customer who legally paid for the seat and was forcibly removed.
- masondixon 10y agoWatch the video. He is literally screaming. Why would you refuse an order from the police. I think its an ideological difference, but I can't imagine refusing or resisting police. I think young people today get kicks from refusing authority, but it is simply not rationale.
- bkkssnn 10y agoBut the police wasn't really police. And it's argued in court if he even had the right to remove the passenger.
- _-__--____-- 10y ago> there is a lot of analysis Yes, finally. Airlines should not be allowed to overbook. Period. I'm pretty sure most of the people would be more than happy to pay a little bit extra to have guaranteed seat.
- masondixon 10y agoWhat's a little bit extra? I don't even pay 30$ to choose my seat.
