I don't mean to be making excuses for anybody but when I saw the word 'Oscar' in your link I thought, fair play, the doc deserves one. I realised later it's the CEO's first name

Predictably, a petition has appeared; we're going to be cursed if petitions are set up everytime there's an incident in society. Ho hum.

And, as mentioned earlier, he was 'removed' by law enforcement, not UA staff. Shouldn't every responsible citizen follow the instructions of the law without all the frenzied histrionics? I'll get me coat

Trying to find something? Well, they certainly did. I think your link throws another light on all of this.
