Evil flourishes (and incompetents get to sit by the emergency exit) when good men do nothing.

FIRST they came and let passengers  traveling with small children board,
and I didn't board because I wasn't traveling with small children.

THEN they came and let passengers who needed special assistance board,
and I didn't board because I didn't need special assistance.

THEN they came and let passengers in First Class board,
and I didn't board because I wasn't in First Class.

THEN they came and let passengers in Rows 1-21 board,
and I didn't board because I wasn't in Rows 1-21.

THEN they came and let passengers in Rows 22-40 board,
and I didn't board because I wasn't in Rows 22-40.

THEN they came for me and told me they had oversold the flight but I could take half off on my next trip to Dayton,
and by that time, there was no one else left to volunteer to give up a seat.
