        We'll see how long this lasts. United is cheap and mainly concerned about profit...go on an international flight and find out yourself

        This is how it was suppose to work-federal law mandates. But @united chooses to drag the passenger off a flight without wanting to pay them!

        United did not drag him the Chicago PD did. Why isnt he suing them? Cuz they aint paying him off.

        The airline, United, called the officers to put him off the plane. He should sue United!!!! But, he also could, or, should sue Chicago PD!
