I hate to comment until all the facts are in, but for the sake of discussion I will:

When you choose to fly, you voluntarily enter into an agreement with the service provider. You agree to follow the airline's rules and bumping proceedures. That's all you need to know. Once it was determined that this man was no longer able to take that flight he should have exited like a man, not a baby that must be drug off. He alone chose how he was going to leave the plane.

Police force is often not pretty. That's why society pays others to do it. Just remember the force is determined by the subject. I doubt the police just walked up and beat him up for fun. I also doubt the doctor line. If he is a doctor, are there no other doctors at his facility?

I avoid these airline problems by driving my truck when I travel. But even then I must play by the rules and I have no right to resist if I break those rules.
