Narrative:

Main cabin galley flight attendant X asked passenger in question to see his boarding pass because of seat duplication. Passenger response was 'fuck you.' passenger continued his abusive and foul language and was totally uncooperative causing a big scene in main cabin. The same passenger also caused same problem at the gate prior to boarding (he also was abusive to gate agents). This same passenger continued his bad behavior by abusing flight attendants and bad mouthing the airline until captain went to rear of cabin and told the man and his family to deplane aircraft. The man at first refused to leave until captain told him if he didn't voluntarily leave, the sheriff (police) would be called. The man and his family deplaned, but on their way out they continued bad behavior, even giving everyone the finger (flipping the bird). Flts from fll-lax and flts from lax-fll are notorious for scary passenger. I have seen several arrests and others kicked off of planes. They seem to show up in a rage and too often agents put them on aircraft just to get them out of their hair.

Narrative: MAIN CABIN GALLEY FLT ATTENDANT X ASKED PAX IN QUESTION TO SEE HIS BOARDING PASS BECAUSE OF SEAT DUPLICATION. PAX RESPONSE WAS 'FUCK YOU.' PAX CONTINUED HIS ABUSIVE AND FOUL LANGUAGE AND WAS TOTALLY UNCOOPERATIVE CAUSING A BIG SCENE IN MAIN CABIN. THE SAME PAX ALSO CAUSED SAME PROB AT THE GATE PRIOR TO BOARDING (HE ALSO WAS ABUSIVE TO GATE AGENTS). THIS SAME PAX CONTINUED HIS BAD BEHAVIOR BY ABUSING FLT ATTENDANTS AND BAD MOUTHING THE AIRLINE UNTIL CAPT WENT TO REAR OF CABIN AND TOLD THE MAN AND HIS FAMILY TO DEPLANE ACFT.
