I need to go and bury my brother!”
CHAOS at the airport:
A woman MELTS DOWN at the Southwest counter — kicking a gate agent and even hitting the airline’s computers in front of stunned passengers.
Air travel stress is one thing… but assaulting staff & wrecking equipment? That’s a whole new level.

She looked enraged and kept yelling. The employees could be seen clearing the desk real quick as she starts to hit their respective computers. She further says, “Two flights wasted! Three planes! After 45 minutes!” Soon after, she starts yelling, “Call the police.” Someone shouted back, “For who?” to which the woman responded, “I have my rights! That’s what I want! The police!”
She starts to shout at the onlookers, gets back to the gate counter and knocks a computer monitor off the desk, smashing it altogether. At one point, the clip shows her to be pointing finger at an agent and kicking him as he quickly returns to his table. While speaking to the Storyful, the passenger mentioned, “She tried to get in through the gate after it closed, and they asked her to stop.”
This is that kid in the grocery store 20 years ago that screamed and screamed, but their mother never stopped it.
Kids with bad behavior grow into adults with bad behavior.
