    Here's a fun ethical dilemma. A doctor has an ethical duty to his patients. Civil disobedience is the ethical action here.

        Not only was this man's refusal to voluntarily move an act of nonviolent resistance, it can be argued to be ethically mandated.

        There is a competing ethical framework that tells you to obey authority no matter what. This is weaker but it's extremely prevalent.

        The doctor chose his professional and moral code over the vision of American perfection. This may seem small but has big historical roots.

        Physicians in Nazi Germany chose the vision of the Reich over duty to patients. They chose the State over Do No Harm.

        So when a doctor chooses Do No Harm over the State, that is a not small thing.

        You can be a proud patriot and not be beholden to defend the state over other matters. That is central to our modern world.

        I don't buy the professional obligation argument. I'm a doctor: if I can't get to work, I have contingencies for patients to be cared for

        Partners or colleagues cross cover. doctors get sick, flights get cancelled. That's professionalism, not insisting you get to fly bc MD

        More to the point, nobody should be beaten for insisting on their right to travel in the seat they paid for, regardless of profession.

        it's the airline's duty to own the screw-up, and pay what the market will bear until it's enough incentive for someone to accept the bump.

        More than a screw up,it's a fundamental flaw of how powerful ppl see POC & use police to inflict damage. "Randomly chosen" Asian man, right.

        Oh, just wanna be clear that I'm not calling the obvs act of assault a screw-up; overbooking when needing to fly employees is a screw-up.

        Some people might say the MD should have had a back-up for his patients. That's not always possible. I would never assume such a thing!

        The thing that most people forget is he could be the contingency backup for the patients, which is why he was flying back. Patients first

        Realistically doctor, while emergencies happen and responsible professional plan ahead, they had only offered 800 dollars, not max. Then 50!
