Southwest Pilot Holds Plane For Murdered Child's Family - Polidicks

[quote]his 3-year old grandson who being taken off life support after being body-slammed by his daughter's live-in boyfriend.[/quote] What kind of a fuckhead body-slams a three year old?

I shed a manly ol' tear. Also, this reminds me of a pilot I flew with when I was 8. He came out of the cockpit to calm an old lady down.

[QUOTE=Zethiwag;27394589]What kind of a fuckhead body-slams a three year old?[/QUOTE] Maybe he didn't do it on purpose, I know it doesn't sound reasonable but theres a chance?

Thats very nice of the pilot.

What a nice pilot, I respect him for that.

[QUOTE=WPlayer;27389180]That is kind of a dick thing to say.[/QUOTE] Tell me about it. He made everyone else wait 12 minutes, that's nothing at all. This guy can suck a dick if he thinks the other passangers would have actually cared about a 12 minute delay.

This made my day. What a great guy.

Why would the boyfriend body slam a child? Weird.

I don't blame the live-in boyfriend, body slamming people smaller than you is fun. Edit: Actually I was thinking of powerbombs. Powerbombing people smaller than you is fun, body slamming is a little bit weird.

[quote]"They can't go anywhere without me and I wasn't going anywhere without you,"[/quote] That's awesome. I'm sad that he'll be fired in the next couple of days.

[QUOTE=Used Car Salesman;27397441]That's awesome. I'm sad that he'll be fired in the next couple of days.[/QUOTE] I am EXTREMELY doubtful that Southwest would even consider that thought.

He was [i]flying[/i] through the airport.

[QUOTE=Used Car Salesman;27397441]That's awesome. I'm sad that he'll be fired in the next couple of days.[/QUOTE] I seriously doubt that. If anything he'd get a pat on the back for that and a nod from the higher ups in the company for sticking to their mantra 'We love our customers'

[QUOTE=BuffaloBill;27389877]Things like this restore a bit of my faith in humanity.[/QUOTE] God fuck this shit, the only reason you have lost faith in humanity is because you KNOW NO ONE PERSONALLY BECAUSE YOU'RE A LOSER

[QUOTE=Gubbinz96;27398490]I seriously doubt that. If anything he'd get a pat on the back for that and a nod from the higher ups in the company for sticking to their mantra 'We love our customers'[/QUOTE] "We love our customers" has some limits though. Like not clogging up a busy terminal for 15 minutes so other planes can't use it.

[QUOTE=nemmises5;27391772]this is my opinion also. so fuck you all[/QUOTE] Not a single passenger on that plane was in a rush for anything more important than that man's need to see his grandson one last time before the poor child died. So, on the contrary...fuck you.

I fly Southwest every time I'm flying back home from Portland, and this is common between most of the pilots, they're usually always nice people. So this doesn't really surprise me.

[QUOTE=**Chris**;27398650]Not a single passenger on that plane was in a rush for anything more important than that man's need to see his grandson one last time before the poor child died. So, on the contrary...fuck you.[/QUOTE] [Citation needed] No emotional bullshit either.

I'm sure If I was one of the passengers, I would just not give a shit about my schedule when I hear that a grandpa is going to say his farewells to a child that's going to die is boarding my plane.

[QUOTE=Used Car Salesman;27397441]That's awesome. I'm sad that he'll be fired in the next couple of days.[/QUOTE] I agree that it is awesome of the pilot. I mean, it is really fucking cool of him. But if he gets fired, than I don't even know what to think of this world.

[QUOTE=nemmises5;27391772]this is my opinion also. so fuck you all[/QUOTE] Mummy didn't love you enough? She didn't say you were special? Poor you. There are more important people than you I hate to say.

did anyone else come into this thinking the pilot held the plane hostage over a dead child?

[editline]14th January 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=McCarthy;27400246]did anyone else come into this thinking the pilot held the plane hostage over a dead child?[/QUOTE] I thought a pilot was holding a model plane because the family couldn't for some reason.

fuck that douche who body slammed that kid

So did the kid die? If so, that daughter needs a new boyfriend. [editline]13th January 2011[/editline] What wouldn't that be accident not murder?

[QUOTE=supersnail11;27402976]So did the kid die? If so, that daughter needs a new boyfriend.[/QUOTE] Yes... they turned off his life support because there was no chance for recovery. It says that... [QUOTE=supersnail11;27402976]What wouldn't that be accident not murder?[/QUOTE] How do you accidentally bodyslam a kid?

Southwest's employees are pretty nice and aren't mindless zombies that stick strictly to every letter and period in procedures
