United pilot attacked passenger for taking too long in the bathroom, lawsuit alleges

Yisroel Liebb of New Jersey claims pilot broke lock and pulled him out with his pants down, leaving him exposed

www.theguardian.com

It sounds like these gentlemen have a case against the airline. Flying is stressful at the best of times. More so when the pilot is an anti semitic psycho.
For once the trump admin may not be the problem here.
Although we can see how the state supports the corporations in an oligarchy.
There will be much worse to come in trumpland.

It sounds like The Ghetto Lottery !

(eg) Liebb said when he asked why they were being detained, an officer tightened his handcuffs...

Well this is terrible and inexcusable.

But the public has also become inexcusable. Hospitals, schools, airlines--anyone that deals with the public at large will tell you. So the pilot just snapped. Shouldn't have, but I understand why one would

The guy was probably embarrassed because he has a small tool.

What the hell was he doing in there for so long?

According to the write up, the guy in the bathroom was taken into custody as well as the person who was travelling with him and they were treated like suspected criminals. May the two of them clean house! My big question is why wasn't the pilot arrested for all that they are guilty of?

God bless you and the two passengers always!!!

Should everyone assume that you became an expert on small penises at birth?

If this pilot is flipping out over an old man taking a crap what would happen if he flipped out while at the controls.

The pilot was also the captain. As captain he has the authority to use physical force on unruly non-compliant passengers. He has the authority to order passengers to return to their seats.

So to answer your question, Holly, the pilot was not arrested because he was acting within his legal authority as captain.

Suspicious bathroom activity is not taken lightly by airline captains due to a muzzie terrorist attack on December 11, 1994. Ramzi Yousef smuggled nitroglycerine (a liquid high explosive) aboard Philippines airline flight 434 in a contact solution bottle in his carry-on luggage. He then used the nitroglycerine to build a timer bomb while he was in the bathroom, then hid it in the pocket under his seat. He disembarked at the next stop and then the bomb blew up on it's way to Tokyo killing one passenger and maiming several others.

If Yousef would have hid the bomb one aisle back, it would have been over a fuel tank and the plane would have likely been destroyed in mid-air. However when he planned the attack he was unaware that the seating plan in the plane had been modified to carry a few additional passengers (at the expense of leg room). So he ended up planting the timer bomb in the aisle in front of the fuel tank instead of directly above it.

Airline corporate greed saved the plane.

The public is a lot of different people. This guy shouldnt be flying a plane.

I just read in the news, today is the 10th anniversary of the crash of Germanwings Flight 9525. That happened because the co-pilot locked the captain out of the cockpit and then committed suicide by crashing the plane killing 150 people.

Stupid crap like this happens every day in every country and probably every state in the U.S....but THIS one gets its own thread.
