Well I have called for a manager via ops and police came before the manager could get there and police were not called they heard it on the radio and thought it was a disturbance. Not saying it happened here but it could have. Also at times we have called for a medical eval and the police came instead.

The Air Carrier Access Act says that if the passenger could harm themslelves or others within FAR's they can be refused transport. Why they werent on the previous flight dunno it could be a flight crew that just ignores everything. Many of us are getting so complacent that we just dont say anything anymore...
