Sounds to me like this individual was either too stupid to know not to act like this on a plane or else there was more going on behind the scenes, as his father alluded to. Likely more of the latter, in which case I question why this individual was flying on an international flight to Panama in the first place:

Shahi also said his son, who was escorted off the plane by a tactical team of police officers, “has never been violent but he is never happy. If he says something, he never means it, he can’t help himself.”

How was anyone else supposed to know this?

He basically just tore a strip off her, explaining how expensive the cigarettes are here in Canada, he hates Canada," Bathe said. "Then he said, with great expression using his hands, 'I just want to bomb Canada".

Like it or not, in this day and age stuff like this is going to generate the kind of response we saw with this flight. Hard to kind of sit down and talk it out and try to get in the mind of someone like this when you're 30 000 ft in the air in a confined space with 200 other people.
Also find it amusing the father is quick to lay blame everywhere else but at his or his son's feet.
As for the police response - hope for the best but prepare for the worst. Easy to call it an overreaction after the fact.
