so this response was stupid as gently caress and hopefully the idiots who decided to remove him FORCIBLY get fired but...

airlines do have the right to decline boarding and give your seat to someone else, and do this fairly routinely. usually this happens BEFORE boarding. and they compensate people with cash and a hotel room to make up for the inconvenience. they offered $400 vouchers and a room, then $800 and a room and no one took the bait. almost always SOMEONE takes the bait, making this situation unusual.

with that said, holy gently caress what a stupid incompetent decision.

worse is airlines policy of routinely overbooking. it's loving stupid and needs to be trashed. but hey, profits before people, right? don't blame the police. well, blame them; but be madder at the circumstance they were asked to make a decision in.

You see, corporations have the right to collect on debts, so the squads of mercenary organ harvesters collecting from delinquent payers are legitimate.

holy gently caress this is annoying and needs to stop. you either didn't read my whole post, read it and chose to ignore it, or are reading into me adding clarity as something it's not. not only is your analogy loving stupid, you purposely cropped out the end of my post. there is nothing in my post that was factually incorrect or disagreeable, let alone worthy of being parroted as an example of sympathy for the police state.

gently caress.



e: outrage over a highly unusual situation to highlight systemic problems of capitalism and the police state that enforces it is loving stupid and annoys people smart enough to realize people probably aren't dragged bloody and screaming from flights everyday. want to be outraged? awesome, highlight everyday examples of how lovely capitalism is, like people not having enough to pay for rent, to pay for healthcare, dental care, child care, people not being able to retire, mental stresses of capitalist alienation etc. etc. etc. etc.

It is in fact good to point at a bad thing and say "this is bad and shouldn't happen." We should also point to other bad things and say "this is bad and shouldn't happen." When a bad thing can be used to highlight a larger scale bad thing, that should also be pointed out.

According to what I read, the flight was fully-booked and the Contract of Carriage does not permit stand-by employees to bump seated passengers with reserved confirmed seating, which is what they used violence to do.

Also, the victim's a doctor who had patients to see the next morning. That was why he refused to leave: The doctor needed to be on that flight to see his patients on time.
