He just attended his mother's funeral. What a horrible experience for him.
I'd like to know what happened before the film was rolling. Was she really being disruptive? I can assume so, if the attendants called the police in. She obviously did something she shouldn't have, but the treatment seemed pretty harsh to me.
>>>>>reading the comments on that link, it's disturbing the out right hate and contempt of the USA-USA! crowd.
I agree with you completely about the hateful remarks, Turtle. Criticize the behavior, not her appearance, etc. Hateful.
“As the lady was removed I saw that I was surrounded by blacks, Latinos, Asians and whites, all who had chimed in asking her to be removed and who had defended me. I was touched and moved knowing later that not all these people were Trump supporters. The black man who took the seat next to me was a registered Democrat and he and I had a very good discussion about the beauty of free speech and coming together when people insult and commit acts of violence just for having differing views.”
Koteskey concluded that the experience had been a demonstration of Americans coming together to stand up for one another.
I wouldn't want that lady next to me, either. It's bad enough when strangers on planes want to make idle chitchat, a self righteous political ranter is just too much.
I totally agree that the woman was out of line and that she shouldn't have said what she did, even if she was provoked (which there is no evidence of).
First amendment takes a backseat when folks are cramped together for hours. Civility is King during times such as these.
And my condolences for all people who are assigned to the dreaded middle seat...
“Making class difference more salient can be bad for everyone,” DeCelles says.
For the study, the researchers had access to a database containing about five years of air-rage incidents from a major airline. (DeCelles declined to say which airline, citing a nondisclosure agreement.) For every 1,000 flights, there were 1.58 incidences of air rage in economy and .31 in first class.
The researchers found that when passengers enter the plane through the front and pass through a first-class section, rather entering in the middle of the plane and into their own designated section, the odds of air rage increase, both in economy and in first-class: Economy passengers are 2.18 times more likely to become unruly and first-class passengers are 11.86 times more likely to act out than when they board from the middle. DeCelles points out that these results statistically account for a number of other factors that might relate to first class and boarding patterns, such as leg room, flight size and flight length.
Do you folks really believe this is a first amendment issue ?
Once more, maybe you'll understand : The 1st Amendment prevents THE GOVERNMENT from interfering with your speech. Other people are allowed to do what they want, including yell louder than you, until they break some law, like using violence.
The 1st Amendment is a protection against THE GOVERNMENT ONLY.

"...I get no kick from Champagne
Mere alcohol doesn't thrill me at all
So tell me why should it be true
That I get a kick out of you
Some get a kick from cocaine
I'm sure that if I took even one sniff
It would bore me terrifically too
Yet I get a kick out of you
I get a kick every time I see
You standing there before me
I get a kick though its clear to me
You obviously don't adore me
I get no kick in a plane
Flying too high
With some gal in the sky
Is my idea of nothing to do
Yet I get a kick
Out of you..."
