It would not surprise me if they had some fine print bullshit in the terms and conditions that nobody reads anymore where it says they're allowed to cancel your flight with no notice at anytime. Yes, in the fine print, the airline claims it has the right to reschedule or cancel your ticket with no notice, for any reason. To what extent those claims have been tested in court I have no idea, but they're there. You know what isn't there, though? A clause that says "We can knock your ass out if you argue with us." And if they ever tried to put it in there, it would last about three seconds in court before being tossed out. The response of the security officers was very much disproportionate to the situation, given that they escalated what was, at that point, a non-violent encounter into a violent one, and the guy absolutely has a case here. It's pretty telling that the Chicago Department of Aviation's response was to put the officer on leave due to proper procedure not being followed. --- Kill 1 man: You are a murderer.
