Apparently flight was oversold. No volunteers. A few deadheads needed to get on. I'm sure there were about 10 better ways to handle this than literally dragging someone off the plane.

How many times was he asked to get off the plane like a rational human being? The video doesn't show the tantrum he threw before the police decided this was the best course of action. If we caved to every person throwing a tantrum it would be pure chaos in the back.

Why was he asked at all? Because $800 and a hotel room is the limit before people are forcibly removed? Everyone on that plane had a price, and whatever is was, it's orders of magnitude less than what this is going to cost United in PR and/or legal fees.

If you notice the guy dragging him off was not in a police uniform. That begs a lot of questions. If it's a United employee he has exposed himself and his employee to a world of legal pain.
Should have let the cops do it.
