“Anyone who reclines their seat more than a couple of inches should be thrown off the plane while it is in flight.”

Why are the seats made so that they can recline? Hmmmm? Because people recline them. That’s why. Go after the airplane industry for not coming up with a better way to recline seats, or so they leave more space between rows of seats. This woman was doing exactly what she, in a free society, was entitled to do. The man behind her was gaming the system. He should have been kicked off alone, not her.

like the old saying that where you stand on an issue depends on where you sit, this one may depend on how tall you are.

Since someone jacking their seat back hurts my beat up knees and precludes getting any work done, I am with the knee defender dude.

Reclining seats were designed to be used when they didn’t cram 400 people onto a 737 originally designed to carry no more than 80 passengers. They just crammed another 50 or more seats onto the same airplane and just to piss people off even more, they kept the recliners.

It is damned rude to recline your seat so that your hair is falling onto the lap of the guy behind you.

Yes, anyone who reclines their seat should be turned over to ISIS for a proper beheading.

Supposedly that was fixed with the 787 Dreamliner, so they say.

Thank you!

But of course, this is Free Republic, where the woman is always wrong.
