In all these situations, there's a common thread: the passenger freaked out. I've been in situations like this at the airport. If you stay calm, stick to the facts, and let them work their process, worst that happens is you get delayed.
And if your calm and cooperative and you still miss your flight, they hook you up. But freaking out on the spot only makes things slow down.
If it's a kid freaking out, the kid needs to be controlled and assured by the parent. If the child sees the parent calm, cool, and collected, the kid will be the same.
People are mistaking "freedom of speach" for "freedom to act like a fool and still have the world cater to them".edit on 24-4-2012 by MattNC because: (no reason given)

Nice personal attack. I'll have that edited.
another common thread: none of the haters here have had any first hand experience of these supposed horror stories... they just read about it. Get out from behind the monitor and see the world for yourself. That's how you "get a clue".edit on 24-4-2012 by MattNC because: (no reason given)edit on Tue Apr 24 2012 by DontTreadOnMe because: (no reason given)

Pure evil. Just the epitome of ignorance gone unchecked for so long, that it has turned full evil.
I think the phrase, "Be careful what you wish for." applies here. Keep treating people like this, and there will be a gun inside every teddy bear, an uzi concealed behind every hug. Manifesting your own reality.
What a demented psycho. This is a clear case of someone not being hugged enough as a child.
"THAT'S NOT LOVE, IT'S A CONCEALED WEAPON."
Ugh. Everyone is entitled to have a bad day every now and then, but Jesus Christ dude.

I suppose if tasing the girl "were within guidlines" you'd be ok with that? All of it is completely absurd.
