Nice.

Via Fox News.

An American Airlines pilot is being hailed as a hero for taking down a belligerent passenger who reportedly manhandled a flight attendant.

Michael Kerr had just accepted his boyfriend’s, Matthew Stacy, proposal before taking a flight from Lexington, Ky. to Charlotte, N.C. on July 21.

Kerr was served three Jack Daniels while aboard the flight that apparently went straight to his head before the airplane arrived at its final destination.

Upon landing, Kerr decided not to remain in his seat. Instead, in a scene captured on cellphone video, he pushed forward to the front of the plane, where he shoved and threatened to break the jaw of a flight attendant who tried to stop him.

Enter the pilot.

“I said take a seat, sir,” he ordered Kerr.

“Noooooooo,” Kerr said, slurring his words. “I don’t want to take a seat …”

“I don’t care what you want to do,” the pilot said. “You’re going to take a seat right now.”

Kerr then turned back to the flight attendant and said, “Uh-huh — you’re going to let me by.”

And that was when the pilot tackled him….

    Pilot takes down a disruptive guy who happens to have a boyfriend – how long will it be before the pilot knows how it feels to refuse to provide a wedding cake to a gay couple?
