FAA says traveler called in fake plane hijacking threats, another punched a woman holding a baby

Regarding the article's embedded PSA video that the FAA created regarding in-flight behavior, something similar played at the beginning of IFE-equipped aircraft might be helpful on commercial flights to prevent at least a few disruptive passenger occurrences; another idea would be to mention prior to boarding (people are usually attentive while listening for their boarding section) and/or departure the laws and legal/monetary/etc. consequences for disruptive behaviors.

I have no sympathy for anyone making hijacking threats. That said haven't we all wanted to punch a baby at some point?!
Not me. I give the 'gift to humanity' back to its parents, and leave...
True story: My family was so surprised I was so happy to leave their kids.
Ahh, I said, I get to wind them up, caffeine, candy, chocolates, spooky movies, spastic running around...
And I get to LEAVE!!! They have to put up with their caffeinated, hyper-spawn for the rest of the day, and night.
I get to go home, and sleep through the night. Zzzzzz...
