The man, a Caucasian in his 40s, was yelling, sweating profusely, throwing chairs and pounding on windows, according to police.

At one point the man grabbed a computer from a desk and threw it down.

Yup, tasered for no reason.

No. Could have been he had been travelling all day and was worked up over his luggage being lost. Ever have your luggage lost on a flight? Ever think about the poor s from another country who don't know the language and know they have nothing else in the country but that luggage? Think that may have got him just a little worked up and was the cause for him sweating profusely? No, he had to have been on something.
Yes, the airline has lost my luggage, luggage of my family and friends and other people that i have seen on flights many times. Not once did I or anyone else: Throw chairs, computers or pound on windows in a delusional state.

No. The article says he was under control, but still yelling, probably because he couldn't understand the language being spoken to him, and because his luggage had been lost. No, I'm sure you would go to another country, deal with people that you couldn't understand, know everything that you had in the country was gone, and that you would just be right as rain and net be frustrated in any way. Especially at 1:30 in the morning. Nope, the guy was on something.
No he wasn't :
The man was struck by the weapon's two probes and fell to the ground, but was still combative, said Lemaitre.
The three officers then attempted to restrain the man, who continued fighting with police, even after they managed to handcuff him.

Again, the airline did lose my luggage and I did not act like that guy.

Again, you go to a foreign country after traveling all day, have your luggage lost, get no answers from anyone because you can't speak the language, and see how rational you are. No, you'll be mister rational and not say a word to anyone crossly. This guy had to have been on drugs.
Give it up Lanny, the airlines lose luggage ALL the time to EVERYONE. Almost all these people do not act the way this guy did.

Quote:
You should lose your luggage sometime, or be around people who have had their luggage lost, and see how rational people can be. It's not pretty. The longer they have to wait, the worse it gets. If this guy was there for an extended amount of time, it wouldn't surprise me. That's a very stressful situation to be in.
And again. So what you are saying is that if the airline misplaces my luggage I guess that it is ok for me to act like a lunitic, throw chairs and computeres, yell and scream and scare everyone in the airport and the police should just let me be because the airline lost my luggage.
