Video in article. I can't post directly since it's children.

A 6 foot five inch tall, 250lb. man pushes and then decks an 11 year old girl outside a mall.

This is completely uncalled for. This guy needs to spend a long time in jail. I don't even care what lead up to it.

According to the video,
these [Text: Removed] acted like a pack of wolfs or Hyenas.
These girls are also at fault. They have no respect for adults. Therefore their parents have alot to answer for.
The man should be punish but not jail for that. These girls should be punished as well.

Hm there does seem to have been some provocation
HOWEVER there is NEVER any excuse for an adult to forcibly push a child never mind punch them

The little bastard probably had it coming.

Just speculating here. A lot of todays youths have absolutely no respect for adults. I've encountered some of these youths before. They have very loud mouths and fast tongues. Very disrespectful.

I'm guessing they were mouthing him off and he happened to be someone who lacks self control.

Or something like that.

Edit.

Sort of like this case.

To these delinquent youths, everything is a joke to them.

I don't think any 11 year old deserves to be punched by a man that size. He's lucky he's not facing a murder charge with a hit like that.

I'm ok with the slugging. They were harassing him en masse. They literally pushed and shoved him, and in the most cowardly way, from his back.

Society should have something in place to control a mob like them, more than tongues clucking.

I wouldn't have slugged her, but I'm glad he did. She needed it about two to three years ago before she became incorrigible.

Congrats to him, she was acting like a cow and was obviously going in for more so he decked her.

 

[NotHardUp1]

I wouldn't want most 11 year olds smacked, but I made an exception for her.

 

[Alistair]

Maybe they were reacting to something he did. Why automatically blame them?

In this day of dime store Debbies and bbq Bettys I wouldn't be surprised by anything.

 

[NotHardUp1]

Experience. Few 51 year olds would have bothered to bother a gang of teenage miscreants. The atmosphere of the gang was palpable. They were acting like a gang.

He wasn't pushing them around. They were harrying him just the same as a troop of animals harassing some interloper animal.

What ? that he was racists to them ?

Don't care, sticks and stones, once they started pushing him around and surrounding him he had the right to defend himself, they're just lucky he wasn't armed.

According to the comments on other site,
they congratulated or supportive of him for self defense ... so you are in the wrong on this one.

Well actually he was. He was charged with 2 counts of assault for pushing two 13 year olds down. We don't see when that happened.

I don't think any middle aged man deserves to be harassed by a group of girls.
They are lucky ....

 

[Dominus]

Let those 13 year olds have their 15 minutes of fame. They'll be basking in that fame in their heads for a long time while they mob the floor of McDonald's.

Maybe this maybe that is not a fair thing to be judged on.
According to the video evidence, the girls are in the wrong unless they have further evidence.

No, I actually did. The video in the link shows him shoving a girl down, then slugging the other girl.

It didn't look like he initiated it. I think they thought they'd get by with taunting him, and were escalating it. He went overboard in stopping it, but from the looks of it, they had it coming.

I meant he wasn't pushing them around BEFORE they started shoving him.

They had him surrounded, he obviously pushed her so he'd have an escape route then she came at him, no telling what weapons they might have been carrying, he did the right thing, i can see all charges being dropped.

I think the article said that in the video he pushed the 11 year old then punched her when she got up.

He's perpetuating violence. He could have left. He's an adult, that was time to act like one, not act like a trump bully.
