Hi d00d

Okay you didn't call him a thug... but he has been to referred as an animal.

Also I really can't understand why so many tabloids seem against this guy... Maybe I am missing something.

Thankfully many of the thousands of comments in the papers agree with what my interpretation of the said incident ( If they hadn't I'd think I was losing the plot)

Look I respect your opinion and I hope you don't take any offence to my going on, its not personal, and if I have offended anyone I apologise.

Its just all the condemnation is chucked at the guy in black, and the press say little about the actions of the guy in white, and wheres the start of the clip I originally seen... and why is it missing.

I will see if can get that extra bit of film sent to me.

Tabloids are masters of windups. They want the punter to disagree, good for readership figures, internet clicks is everything.

Personally, I don't have an opinion on this unfortunate incident. Whatever happened, it must be a huge embarrassment for all concerned. But I still think the "security guard", if that's what he is, is not cut out for the job. This is not a Glasgow nightclub.

Re: Retaliate First........

"Shoot First And Ask Questions after".

I can recall a self defence course, a very long time ago, in which the instructor suggested that we should never let the aggressor get so far into your face that he can inflict serious damage.

It was further suggested that the head but was a useful weapon but you must avoid head butting to the bridge of the nose as that can cause death or brain damage to the target.

Can't remember who said it, or when, but I think that some Services people might agree?

Maybe I dreamed it.

The gobshite in white got what he deserved.
People who think like you are half the reason you get these bully gobshites thinking they can do what they like.

Provoked - unquestionably, but his response was not commensurate and in any case was a criminal assault since it was not self defence.

Did the chap in white get what he deserved, no. He did not "deserve" to be illegally physically assaulted.

Well I think he did, and I'm not changing my mind.

Spot on Fender!

It was a deliberate act of provocation.

It was aimed to force a response.

And it forced one.

I'd love to get on the Jury for one of these, if it ever came to trial!
