OBJ in and out of consciousness, kicked off flight

[Qcard]

@USArmyVet excuse me sir.....What are the charges for overzealous Flight attendant..

Dak Haters Fall for every Dog Whistle

 

[Shane612]

I don't know if that's him but it's funny. Lol

 

[sandbridge77]

Lol we are blaming the flight attendant, yea they much rather herd the passengers off the plane, herd them back on and deal with all the passengers who missed connections, work several hours more than scheduled, hustle to find their next flight, just because some entitled diva would not put on his seatbelt. Lol

 

[Runwildboys]

Because he wouldn't put his seat belt on.

If he was "in and out of consciousness, they should have just put it in him while he was out.

 

[Shane612]

The real question is was he sitting in First Class or Coach?

I say coach. They don't kick you off the plane for such minor infraction in first class...do they?

Dodged a bullet. Jerry loves his washed up skill players.

 

[Shane612]

Jerry will definitely sign him, now.

 

[Runwildboys]

This is pretty much what I thought happened. A lot of those flight crews get off on having authority.

Where's Dez Bryant's babysitter at? If he could keep Dez employed in the NFL, OBJ will be an easy job.

Busy with Joseph.

That report sounds like some BS to me.
“In and out of consciousness”??
Either he’s 1, intoxicated or impaired and you arrest him for Public Intoxication, or 2, he’s got a legit medical emergency and is taken to the ER. Neither scenario should result in simply “making other arrangements” or just catching a different flight, if the report accurately represents the incident.
Saying this with nearly 20 years legal experience.

If he was arrested for PI that would be front and center.

 

[Rockport]

What exactly did you expect from his paid lawyer? His statement sounds implausible.

This is typical of OBJ. Not at all hard to believe.

Egg on your face possibly?

 

[JoeKing]

I was in and out of consciousness after eating all that turkey on Thanksgiving. But I had the good sense not to try to fly while on a heavy dose of tryptophan. OBJ just needs a better handler. Bring him on!

Thats probably it exactly. I mean he's asleep, wouldn't they prefer a plane full of sleeping passengers? They'd have no trouble, no issues - nice and peaceful flight. Buckle his belt, let him stay asleep, take off- whats so hard.

 

[Fritsch_the_cat]

If he was arrested for PI that would be front and center.

Yeah, and it looks like if he caused all that trouble they would have arrested him for PI.

Greg Hardy 2.0?

 

[doomsday9084]

I really don't want the Cowboys to sign OBJ but everything about this screams "overzealous crew". If he was getting in the crew's face, there will be videos out within the next few hours from other passengers. I suspect we aren't going to see them.

Non-responsive passengers are a problem. Pilots are not going to look past issues that could cause diverting into another airport. On time percentages are important to every pilot's career. The pilot is solely in charge of how that airplane is going to be operated, and his experience and level of comfort with the situation as he reads it.. well, that becomes law on the ground and in the skies.

I used to work 3rd shift. Plus I have sleep problems. I used to take the train to work. I used to doze off on the train. That could’ve been me.

 

[3rdEyewarrior]

This might lower his price.

 

[conner01]

Drunk or something else?

It could be many things. Sick, reaction to meds he was prescribed or any number of things that are no big deal
