Oh well! Then sure!! Its time to start knocking customers out with your hired goons then./s

Everyone gets that. We're mad that United messed up the logistics of having staff in the right cities, and instead of treating their customers well they decided to use literal force to removed a customer with a confirmed seat who was already boarded.

They had better alternatives: other customers had offered to leave for higher voucher value, I'm sure they could have paid someone already in Louisville 4x overtime. Instead they chose force and intimidation.

At least they weren't on the fucking plane already. It was a next morning flight, plenty of time to wave off the customers affected by United's own fuckup. This is why we need to re-regulate the airlines.

So you're saying, unlike doctors, flight staff are demigods and must be given priority because they are irreplaceable?

(The funny thing is, I'm pretty sure United will view their flight crew more as cogs than demigods.)
