To have said something on this flight?

Guy on my flight in the row in front, travelling with wife and teenage daughter (14 I overheard). I spent 4 hours listening to him being verbally abusive to his family, swearing constantly. I had my earphones on and it was loud enough to hear him still. Eventually after I witnessed him swearing in his teenagers face again, while yanking her headphones off her head aggressively getting her hair all caught, I stood up and asked him what he was doing, and did he realise how many small children were sitting near him having to listen to his constant swearing. Told him I didn’t want to hear anymore of it. He apologised but then called me a mug under his breathe. This then lead to a bit of a row which nearly got him taken off the flight. Doubting myself whether I should have just stayed quiet, I could have caused the flight to have been diverted (well he could) but my blood was boiling listening to it for so long.

You did the right thing, well done OP. And shut up Eliza, if he did beat the shit out of them when they got home, it is him to blame entirely, not OP.
