Annoying behavior is a problem and should be dealt with, but violent behavior is a worse problem and their violence will always lead to a proportionate response. Since this person was apparently facing your party, waiving your hand near their face to get their attention would have been my next step. Alternatively saying very loudly to the person near the elevator buttons/door "HOLD THE DOOR, we need to get this rude person to move so we can get off" might have gotten other passengers to get his attention for you. And the 'proportionate response' will usually be disproportionate i.e. more than was received, and will be the response people will remember. Plus your face and clothing. On camera! BOOM! No matter what the first person actively did to you, YOUR response will be the one to get you kicked off the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
