That's what they're supposed to do, which is why technically he was in the right (he obviously should have just left since the airline can do whatever they want as you can tell. It's like "legally" fucking with a cop when you get pulled over knowing he can really do whatever the hell he wants to you. Do you really want to take that chance?).
That's what the link I posted was talking about.
