I find it interesting what social media gets angry about. People can mouth off, forcibly resist and even take a swing at police but if a cop uses any force in return, social media gets upset at the police. It really makes me wonder what it would take for social media to fault the person who won't cooperate and purposely escalates the situation. All this makes me of the situation in Arizona in January when a bystander shot and killed a man who was beating a state trooper on the side of the road. I wonder what the reaction would have been if another cop had shot the assailant instead?FallenApple said:His actions may have been childish, but when there are thousands of flights, eventually someone like this would show up. United should have known this and should have taken extreme caution to not arouse the anger of social media with actions that are generally highly disapproved of by the public.
