I think I saw that movie. She clicked her heels together. She didn't scream till cops hadda taze her.
Play stupid games.
Win stupid prizes.
Yikes. Practically my neighbor...
His past does not in any way excuse the actions of United Airlines.
Apparently there are many doctors in Kentucky that prescribe drugs in an illegal manner.
However, that has nothing to do with his being dragged off that United flight.
My stepson and his girlfriend, back in their early 20’s, would play a game called, “we’re not leaving”.
They’d go to a bar in trendy Capital Hill in Seattle and sit there and never order anything and see how long it took before they were physically removed. I don’t get it, but they seemed to think it was fun.
They grew up and have been married a few years.
And this is justification to beat the sh*t out of someone and drag them off a plane?
Convicted of a felony, fraudulently writing prescriptions, he also sexually harassed a male employee and traded drugs for sex.
No way should he have had his medical license re-instated and no way should he be any where near a prescription pad.
What difference does his past make? It could have been you or me, or anybody, they did that to.
The bumping practice should be illegal.
His old criminal record has no bearing on what happened on the plane. The fact that they are bringing it up is silly. Having said that, I don’t agree with how he acted either. Both United and he could have handled this more like adults.
One might think he was on drugs and really whacked out when watching that piece of video.
I have been reserving judgment, but note that this has been as dividing here as a discussion regarding Dresden and a couple other subjects that won’t come to mind at the moment.
Looks like United Airlines has hired a firm that specializes in Reputation Repair. They seem to be using the old “Look over there how bad that guy is” play.
The dirtbag was uncooperative and resisted.
He paid for the seat. He had a reservation for the seat. He had a boarding pass for that seat. And he was sitting in that seat.
If they wanted someone to give up a seat they ought to have offered compensation sufficient to make them want to give it up. Or make other arrangements for their employee travel.
I don’t care what his other personal issues are. They could do the same thing to anyone.
Didn’t take long for the security people to defend themselves by attacking the victim. How does any of this man’s past excuse how he was treated?
Or, and I can't wait for this one: Heck, he's a fag, whatever happens to him is divine justice.
Let the sliming begin.
Now he is going to be a guy with a fatter bank account and a criminal record
.
Boycott United!
The passenger’s past has nothing to do with the crime on the plane!

The man, Dr. David Dao of Louisville, Kentucky, had to see patients in the morning. Dao was trying to regain his medical license he surrendered in February 2005 after being convicted of drug-related offenses. In 2015 the medical board lifted the suspension and allowed him to practice medicine again. Last year, the medical board imposed restrictions on his right to practice. He can only practice internal medicine in an outpatient facility one day a week. This circumstance made it imperative that Dao attend to his one day a week patients.
