Thin person kicked off flight for fat 14-year-old to have two seats to sit in

I agree whole heartedly.
Fine I will never take you to the make your own ice cream sundae bar with fried cheese buffet ever again.
When we need reminded of how much this world sucks, we need look no further than the stories posted on FreeOnes forums.
The airline companies really need to overhaul the way they run shit. A person shouldn't be making it all the way onto the plane just to be told they have to get off for someone else. The whole "haha, fat Americans" bullshit isn't the issue.
I don't know. Maybe they should treat it kinda like shipping packages. Get the ticket buyer's weight and girth.
We can go on and on (aimlessly) about fat people (I'm skinny as a pole, btw), but that shit won't change. It's the airlines that need to fix their shit.
...but, they won't because they have us by the balls. How else are people going to fly?

Fine! Great! Good! I'm lactose intolerant dumbass! You ever wonder why I shit my pants in your car on the way back to your place every time we go there? The stains on your seat and up the side of your interior tell the story better than I ever could.

Seems like it would make more sense to kick the fat ass off and let two skinny people have his seats
It's pretty simple -- if you can't fit in a single seat, you pay for two (or three!). If you can't afford it and need two or there aren't enough seats available, you should be offered a refund.
The only exception should be a plane switch to a smaller jet; if a patron can't comfortably fit in a single seat they should be offered two -- if there is not enough space available, they should be rescheduled and compensated.
It's true that "economizing" keeps making seats smaller. Don't like it? Don't patronize airlines that outsource South Korean air jets, for example. I'm only 6'4 (not a giant by any means), and I can't stand up straight in the cabin nor fit in one of those bathrooms hunched over. I won't fly Delta (who uses the ultra-small cabins) or let the employees use them on business trips.

Fat people shouldn't have rights. :nono:
The way I see it, neither the fat or thin passenger is to blame.
It's the airline's fault for letting the situation happen, where they gave her a ticket to a plane she wouldn't be able to stay on. As I said before, the airlines need to modify the way they run this. I know they didn't realize they would have this fat kid situation until it was right there in front of them. So, they need to modify the way they do business.
Taking into account, all the other stresses of travel, do people also have to be worried about being kicked off a flight at last minute because of someone else? Does it have to be a gamble?

How does a 14 year old get that big? What the hell are his parents doing? I' m amazed these days by some of the terrible parenting that's going on out there.
Yes. If you bump the fat kid of the plane you are discriminating against obese people; if you bump a random, thin, passenger off the same plane you are not discriminating. I guess that they did their math.
Be nice to fat people because they're going to be the majority soon if not already.
That's what she gets for being thin.
Skinny bitch.
