When the little brat sitting behind you keeps kicking the back of your seat, that’s unruly. When a passenger tries to break into the cockpit, that’s something much worse than unruly. The media goes out of it’s way to minimize the seriousness of these incidents.
To take this thread on a slightly different tack, I think that this little brat also needs to be dropped off in Amarillo! I would, however, land the plane first. I'm not sure I would land the plane for the bozo who attacks the cockpit door.
I thought the same thing as you. I love the way they use these adjectives to spin it the way they want.
I would bash that guy’s skull in. With several other passengers.
