Why? Because I think people should be considerate of each other in situations that are less than ideal?

Thanks for your useful comment.

How can you feel entitled to tell another passenger what they can and cannot do with their seat? I don't like coach class anymore than the next person but I prefer my seat reclined so I can sleep. Sorry if that encroaches on your space but take it up with the airline not the passenger using their seat as provisioned.

Personal attacks will get your account banned on HN, so please don't do this again.

I'm not sure how this is a personal attack, I am dismissing his comment where he suggests "There is a place in hell for people that recline in coach."

Sorry if it was interpreted incorrectly but the comment I replied to deserves dismissal.

That logic doesn't apply on HN because of the damage such comments do to the commons. Even if you don't owe it to the other commenter, you owe it to the community not to post like that here.
