more information is coming out about the doctor.

new york post article

from the report:
he apparently was convicted in 2003 for trading prescription drugs for sex.

there may be more to the story than originally posted. time will tell.

That's called character assassination and has no relevance to the case at hand.

The smear job on this doctor is terrifying.

I want to know the backgrounds of every employee involved, too. What were they doing 15 years ago? May as well publish pics of their spouses and children, as well, because that's what the media has done to this doctor.

Let's start with the CEO who said that UA did nothing wrong here.

Your are right. The fact that this was even posted is a very telling.

We are setting a very dangerous precedence. This man's past or his personal life has absolutely no bearing on the event, but they have been so successful in the past with throwing in anything to muddy the waters to distract us, that we always turn away from the real problem that has to be fixed.

They are getting sloppy about how they play us because they know that we will take the bait every time, and make the wronged wrong and will make the guilty innocent.

We are so damn gullible and so lost in our conditioning that we can't find the way out. They trained people to be afraid. They have people afraid to say certain words, like Islam, Muslim, homosexual, even pizza. Now they will be afraid to say "no", when there masters command them, even if they have paid their hard earned money, even if they have locked the doors of their homes and have laid their heads down to sleep.

When your masters speak, you kneel, or you will get the crap beat out of you, your body will be dragged about for all to see, and no one will come to your aide. I think they have made what we are to them very clear. Whether you moo, oink, baa, bray, or whinny, you will be culled.

You don't have to wait any longer. They have already come for you, and you went without so much as a whimper.

Did they pick this Doctor because he was Asian, and didn't he say he had patients he needed to see this next morning, so why him?

OK then, United was perfectly justified in abusing a customer? Got it!

i already made that point clear a few posts back.
the passenger's past has no relevance to the incident that happened on the plane.

So why did you post it?

it's a part of the story.

if you read a few posts back, i said, "his past has nothing to do with what happened that day on the plane."

a reply to: Krazysh0t

I posted this in another thread, but it is worth repeating, I think:

I'd like to know how the press got the passenger's name. DailyMail posted this 'exclusive' pic from his passenger file:


This little snippet has his wife's name...obviously, his identity could have been gleaned through that.

But, then they go on to state this:

His identity has been revealed after United CEO Oscar Munoz doubled down on his airline crew's decision to remove an elderly passenger, claiming he was 'disruptive and belligerent'.

Link

From what I saw of Munoz's statement, I didn't see Dao's identity revealed.

So who floated the 'exclusive' pic of his passenger file to the DailyMail? Has Dr. Dao been charged with anything?

So far, it looks to me that this smear job has United's fingerprints all over it. (Or the Chicago Aviation Police's...)

a reply to: Krazysh0t

So...
Now what happens when no body books a United flight ? Do they still have a problem with "over booking", or do they just go out of business for lack of customers.

I have no reasons to fly, but if I did I would not fly United.

No. It isn't. It's a character assassination that is rather easy to identify. And it wasn't a "part of the story" until you posted the link to the thread.

if you read a few posts back, i said, "his past has nothing to do with what happened that day on the plane."

Which makes it baffling why you'd post a link that specifically muddies the water around the discussion while adding no new information about the ACTUAL event.

Be wary of the Daily Fail. That's my motto.

I guess I would have to switch to a different carrier but I have a feeling that this incident isn't going to put them out of business.

Well if 9/11 is anything to go by with declining ticket sales due to airline incompetence then I imagine a bailout is next.

Looks like oscar munoz is eating his words...

The CEO of United Airlines has apologised for the 'truly horrific' removal of a passenger from an overbooked flight.

Oscar Munoz said he "continues to be disturbed" by the incident, during which a passenger was forcibly dragged, screaming, off a plane.

He said the company would "fix what's broken so it never happens again".

United's parent company's share price plummeted on Tuesday after a video of the incident went viral on Twitter.

Backpeddling...money talks (or tumbling stocks, rather).

a reply to: kamatty

wonder when he started being disturbed by it, was it before the stock lost around a billion dollars or after??

my guess would be it was after!!!
