They can bump you, even once on the plane. You do not have the right to throw a tantrum and not get off. Once you interfere with the flight crew, it's a crime.
Cops tried to take him off the plane, he just screamed. They then had to carry him and he fell.
Boo hoo
What does his past offenses have to do with this specific issue? Seems like you think people with past transgressions are free to be assaulted.
Did they provide him with a written explanation for being removed form the flight at time of removal as required under government regulations?
Did they follow their own policy of not seating overbooked flights?
Is their a policy the passenger agreed to upon ticket purchase on, what the airline is now calling, downward line seating for which they remove passengers for flight crew after the boarding process has already begun?
Did he get charged with a crime?
Did he fall horizontally into an arm rest across from him?
Why would the Chicago Transportation Authority publicly state that it was handled wrong and suspend the officer who injured the passenger on leave if he just fell and they were in the right?
See it just doesn't seem so cut and dry like people like to pretend. There is a natural desire to hate the guy acting like an ass, but he still has rights. Also interesting to note he volunteered to give up his seat originally, but when they told him the next flight wasn't until 2:30 the next day he freaked out due to missing his rounds. I'd be pissed to if they didn't tell me the next flight wasn't until the next day, until after they got volunteers.
