Big Fight on Carnival ship

WOW, that’s just crazy! 

What a shame, that's the second "brawl" on a ship I've read about in the last 2 weeks or so, and I think they were both Carnival ships (let me be clear, I love cruising with Carnival and am not placing blame with the company) just remarking on the coincidence. Cruising is one of my "happy" places, and I guess I'm just puzzled at what makes one this angry in such a laid back atmosphere...or anywhere, for that matter. Alcohol, stupidity, complete ambivalence towards the rest of society...who knows. 

My heart goes out to all the other passengers and crew who had to deal with such a cluster of fools, and all those who were innocent passers-by who had to witness, what sounds like multiple instances of mayhem. 

Sorry, I'm not usually given to rants, but I just cruised with my family and my 12yo niece and her dance group a few months ago, and just keep imagining what if something like that had happened? Of course, these instances are the exception, millions cruise each year without encountering such problems.

Hugs to those uninvolved passengers.

I do wonder what charges will be filed...they were in international waters, aboard a foreign ship, dropped off in a foreign port, is there any legal recourse? I'm regrettably ignorant of the law in such cases.

End of rant...heavy sigh!

Lol

I have taken 8 Carnival cruises,   I have shopped at Walmart.  I will cruise Carnival in the future as I will shop Walmart in the future.  I know what to expect from both,  the good and the bad,  but this is worse then I thought for Carnival.   This is something you do not see on Celebrity cruise line or is Sack's..... just saying.

Shame on the Carnival Security trying to scare off the person recording this as security is kicking people already on the ground.  

This is really disturbing to be and not what security are meant to do!

I see law suits against security in the future..........   may be good time to buy Carnival stock when it drops sown after this.   LOL

I think the video needs a sound track......they should play "The Love Boat" in the background.

SMH

It's reported that this group was trouble from the beginning.  The point where Carnival really dropped the ball was not disembarking their rear ends at the first port of call. 

I am not a big fan of "gimme a free cruise", but if reports are true, I believe every well-behaved passenger on this cruise deserves one.  

Security really messed this up as well, but after so many days of the groups shenanigans, I probably would have kicked a few sensitive areas myself.  Mace would have come in handy.

What is a sad situation when you have to discipline adults like children because they behave worse than children. I'm sure glad I was not on that cruise and pray that we have nothing like that on our cruise. 

I saw this and decided now Carnival will get the reputation of the "fighting" ship not the "party" ship. (All the ships seem to get painted with the same moniker). Or maybe it's just Australia?
