If it went down exactly as the FA who posted here says, then the Captain's best response would be to tell him to f' off back to his seat and expect nothing but non alcoholic drinks on his orders.

So, anyone who drinks or asks for a drink is an alcoholic?

Talking about dealing with bouncers and the police? That's violence.
