Jill and rcampbell: You both were imagining what might have happened if a woman behaved this way in an American airport; this story, sadly reminds me of the tragic death in 2007 of Carol Ann Gotbaum in a cell in the Phoenix, AZ airport.

Those people handled this very well. The stayed calm and actually seemed rather kind. Their actions were like a parent with a young child having a terrible two incident. In the US she would have been tased at first scream, then again when she dropped to the floor. I think she would have kept coming so there would have been at 1 or 2 more tases!

And folks think Italians/French/Jews/Latinos are expressive……so much for the notion of emotionless Asians.
