Watch an airline physically assault a passenger and drag him off after he'd already boarded.
Because they overbooked the flight.
They apologized, but only for overbooking the flight, not slamming this man's face into a metal armrest & literally dragging him half-concious off a plane.
Can we fucking ban overbooking flights already?

@EleventhOcean imagine that behavior in any other industry....
@EleventhOcean Industries rich in lobbyists make their own rules. the last big giant that had controls placed on it was big dairy. apparently it used to be common for milk to change prices multiple times a day (sound familiar fossil fuel industry?) until outraged housewives made it stop. Apparently it's hard to run a household budget when one of your major Staples can triple in price over night.
@Zaphodbblx Right? Sorry, we overbooked the hotel and you have to leave your room so another guest can have it.
