Sorry: there is nothing in some passengers Bill of Rights that gives him the right to physically resist both flight attendants and federal employees if he is asked to deplane and won't comply with federal regulation.  He thought he was above all that by virtue of nothing else expect his profession, and it was his hubris - to the point of him running BACK onto the aircraft after being removed the first time- that should be punished.  Ann- this guy and you are entitled, and clearly identifying that doesn't make me "pro-corporate."  It just means that normally don't have time for people like that-- but I'm willing to make an exception for you and your typist fingers.
