That's why if/when I ever build my amusement park, all of our security guards will receive Krav Maga instruction.

We were eating at Crystal Palace a couple of years ago and the parents at the table behind us were telling their kids to chase Tigger down after he left their table, Tigger was trying to sign my daughters book and the parents just kept it up "pull Tigger's tail" "get Tigger", no one was stopping them so I turned around and told the dad it was my daughters turn with Tigger and if they wanted another turn they would have to sit down and wait for him to come back around. The dad just stared at me and continued to yell " pull Tiggers tail. Finally when the kids would not go away so we could even get a picture of my daughter Tigger just politely pushed both of the kids under our table so we could get a picture without these kids in it.I'm not sure if this really relates to this or not but I live in a family with 5 kids (including myself) and it annoys me when I'm at character dining and another family comes up to your table. There is always some foreign kid (or family) rushing up to the table screaming "PLUTO! PLUTO!" or "MICKEY! MICKEY!" and you can never have them to yourselves.
My brother and I are always saying that people should know the rules of character dining.
THE CHARACTERS COME TO YOU.
Oh and another pet peeve of mine is when you see people in wheel chairs who you know don't need to be in them and are in them just to get special assistance. I hate people like that.

And unfortunately a few CM's take their authority to ridiculous levels. I guess that's why CM's can get in trouble for enforcing rules.
Sure did. It showed up in my email and I was like "Well, that sounds like an interesting thread.........oh that I started 6 years ago."

Eh, just one of those things. If we're not faulting people for not doing a search on a topic, we're on people for using the search and contributing to a thread without checking the born-on date.

I never see such excitement while I'm in the kingdom. But then again, I've learned to go in June for two main reasons 1) not as hot as in July and 2) those pesky Brazilians. Still, I can't imagine you grabbing them and no fights breaking out.

I'm glad you said something. I would have too. I hate litterbugs, so tacky!
So to continue with the "just desserts" theme. While not at WDW, this person got what he deserved. We were at the Grand Californian at DL enjoying the pool. A "guest" was yelling at a CM because his alcoholic beverage had not arrived in a timely fashion. She tried to explain that they were very busy, and that he should be receiving his soon, but he was having none of it. He actually threatened her physically right in front of us (we were standing only a few feet away). She was literally in tears over this. Her supervisor saw what was happening and called security. They asked what had been said. We told them, and he was immediately escorted out of the area, and we found out later that he had been removed from the hotel. We tried to console the CM as best we could. Oh, and we received a few free beverages for a thank you! So not only did he get his just desserts, we got ours as well!

I'm assuming the beverages you received were the exact ones he was waiting on. Please don't correct me.
Well what was funny was that ALL of the Americans had had enough and took action as one impressive unit, which you rarely see. But, they were just trampling people from behind so there were a lot of folks who had already been wronged by them. Those kids could not believe what was happening to them. They were astonished at being treated so rudely and you could see the absolute shock on their faces as they pointed to their friends who had gotten by and couldn't fathom how we were stopping them and couldn't understand that they just wanted to be with their friends.

It really is too bad this thread was revived. Not liking the vilification of the Brazilians. I must say that I have been going to WDW for many years and I have yet to encounter these Brazilian groups. I'm not saying that rude, obnoxious people don't exist, I've encountered my share at Disney, too...it just bothers me when a whole culture is painted with a very negative paintbrush.
Last summer I was eating in restaurant in Yarmouth, MA. when a bus filled with Brazilian tourists pulled in. These people came in, sat down, ordered their food - they ate and laughed and appeared to have a good time just like anyone on vacation would.

The OP seems to recount the vilification earned by a tour group, who happened to be from Brazil, not of individual Brazilians. The other posters seem to have encountered similar problems with tour groups, some of which seem to have come from Brazil. Doesn't seem like a culture is being painted, maybe a recurring problem with tour groups or any crowds that flaunt polite behavior at a place where many are trying to enjoy their own vacations without rudeness.

Anyway, here's one I've shared before, and it actually involves a family member, so I'm not sure if it counts, but I love it too much.
Anyway, my mom, sister, and I are having breakfast at 1900 Park Fare. While mom is getting food, Alice comes over to our table. She gets a picture with my sister, then comes over for my turn. She starts to suggest a picture. "You look like you're a curious sort, like you read many books and do a good deal of thinking..."
My sister interrupts with, "Yeah, he's a nerd."*
Alice immediately turns on my sister. "Well that's a terribly rude thing to say! I for one read a great many books and do a great deal of thinking and I would never refer to myself as a nerd!" Back to me, she says, "She's quite mad, isn't she? She'd best be careful, or the Queen will take her head!"
So, we get our picture taken doing a thoughtful pose, all the while I'm trying not to bust up laughing at my sister getting her comeuppance (as she was a bit difficult at times on this trip, though I'll spare you the details). After Alice left, I just looked at her and said, "Oh, man, you got scolded by Alice."
*It's a fair cop, considering I brought 20-sided dice on this trip, just in case, but still....
