Guess I will just continue to disagree. A sucker punch on some drunk jerk off is still a sucker punch and my way of thinking is it is worse than even what that jerk off was doing. Both are bad, just depends on the degree.

Guess my thinking goes back to the playground in about the fourth or fifth grade. Had a kid with two brothers who would hold some kid and he would come around with a sucker punch and cold **** the kid they were holding. Remember being held and turning my body slightly to kick that kid down and then get loose and take on his brothers. Sucker punches have always made me really angry because always thought the person throwing them are just cowards.

This dirtbag was going around trying to pick fights with random strangers. He slapped the dude in the black shirt and was trying to fight the other guy. The guy that hit him probably thought he could be next. He averted the situation by dispatching the idiot before he turned his actions on him. Well played, sir. Well played.

That's cause they are cowards. Although this idiot got we he deserved it should have been from someone who came up straight on him. I also thought it was douchey that the guy he slapped kicked him after he was out. I probably would've just spit on him and walked away.

If there's an aggressor looking to start fighting people who clearly don't want to fight, then I contend you throw out the rules and neutralize the punk.

Using a WWII analogy: If you're planning to invade Normandy, you don't give Hitler a heads-up so it's a "fair fight." You sneak attack when he's not looking and prevent him from doing any more damage.

I'm fine with the punch. Not so much with the kick in the groin after he's laying on the ground.

POW!

Is that Hispanic Family Night out in Austin.

Being that I live in Austin, this is a rare occasion on 6th St. Admittedly, I have not been down there lately but I have been there often enough to know that fights rarely happen. Sure there are a lot of drunks but don't lett that keep you from $1 Schnap shots at Touche's, :) Outside of a few Cougar High and Aggy fans, I never heard about anything from anyone else complaining about their time in Austin.

BTW, the dude in the video who got knocked out had it coming.

Yep. "fair fights" are always what the bigger/more trained fighter wants... because he will always win a fair fight. You don't really know what started this, but it was clear that one guy wanted to fight, and the other two and their friends didn't. it seems by the crowd that this had been going on for a few moments before the video started, but clearly, two guys moved away and the other guy kept coming... slapping a guy who was clearly a "non combatant.

It's always OK to sucker punch the aggressor. As said, it diffuses the situation right quick. What grinds my gears is when a pack of punks looking for trouble sucker punches someone. That's low.

My guess is that 93.13% of righteous dudes and dudettes agree.

Yep.

Not sure if it was Sixth Street, but here's a living statue taking matters into his own hands . . .
