Where I live calling 911 for something that is not a true emergency can get you jail time (though normally just a nasty fine)
This could also be legally calssified as unlawfull detainment (as well as many other definitions) justifying a 911 call and the airline, airport and federal government need to be held accountable. The jail time would just increase the financial settlement.
Somewhere we forgot as a nation that people, human beings are on these aircraft and the ignorant majority in this forum that refers to them as SLF need a damb awakining as they are your bread and butter and possibly your family, neighbors freinds etc.etc.
