I'm not sure I could keep my cool like this guy did. Kudos to him for not hitting a few girls. If someone stole from my pregnant girlfriend/wife then proceeded to hit her. I would have to deliver an *** whooping of some sort but that's just me. Im just curious what you guys would do.

PErsonally, when the bus stopped and I could get off, if the behavior had not stopped I would have leveled one or two of those women. Female or not, those are predators and it's likely the assault would have continued like wild animals they would only stop when it starts to cost them. These are the kinds of people who would have their friends waiting at a stop. The instigator would have caught a serious elbow to the face for assaulting my pregnant girl...and after that...well, people usually pay more than full price for their trouble and that would have cost plenty. Maybe I'm wrong and I won't disagree if you think I am but that would ahve been the end of that conflict!

The guy handled it pretty cool I thought, I would never hit a woman, but it would be pretty tempting in a case like that.

I can't watch videos till I get back home but read the title of 5 attackers. At that point I'd probably produce a licensed carry pistol and direct them all to seats to await police. Oh, and I was taught never to hit a lady but I was also taught the difference between a lady and a woman/female. Punch the holy crap out of any of those 5 as they are not ladies only females.

I'm usually against hitting women, but if 5 of them were attacking my pregnant girlfriend/wife, i think i'd have to dish out a beating. Attacking/hitting a pregnant woman is crossing a line and i would have to cross a line in return. If those same 5 girls attacked ME, i would just do what i had to do to defend myself from the attack...like push them down on their arses. My own mother told me don't ever hit a woman but don't let them beat on you just because they know you won't hit them back.

Can't watch the video because I can't loginto youtube for some reason. I think I feel like most people. The fact that those 5 people were females is irrelevant. They deserve what they ask for. Personnaly, I'd hate to be up against 5 of anybody. If it was only me I'd be inclined to let it be. But for girlfriend/wife I'd "want" to do lots of bad things to them. Not joking.

Slightly off subject but I'll say it. I really don't think they should say 5 "black" girls. I'ts very common but what is the race of the victims? If they were "white" girls would they have said "white"? I'm not very concerned about it but it makes it seem like it makes a difference that they were black. If they had been white would it make a difference to anyone here about what should happen to them?

Yeah that video is messed up. I would have had a very very hard time keeping my cool, and would probably have ended up losing my temper. That man has nerves of steel.

This reminds me of the one time i actually slapped a girl. I was about 12 years old or so and was at an all night skating rink. There was this guy whos girlfriend decided she liked me better..you know how that goes. Well, his new girlfriend didn't like me for some reason and started some crap...it was this big scene, she's in my face running her mouth and i kept my cool about the whole thing, all the while her man is behind her shaking his head. Well, out of nowhere she knees me right in the crotch....GOOD. My hand came out and cracked her one without even thinking about it..i mean it was second nature. I don't think i could've stopped it because it happened so fast it was over before i realized i was doing it. She looked at her boyfriend hoping he would start a fight...he just told her she asked for it lol.

Me and the Mrs. will wrestle and i've Charley horsed her plenty times but she's a tough chick and it's all fun and games. She gives it right back too and she hits pretty hard

I finally watched this video. I decided to wait 15 minutes before writing this.

I still don't know what to say after a couple of more minutes. Mom said if you don't have anything good to say don't say anything. So, I'll say that guy did keep his cool when most may not have. Also, one girl seemed like she was trying to keep things under control.

Happy holidays,
Jack

Here's my take on it:

I believe in being a gentleman, but not being someone's punching bag. The minute my prego gf/wife would have started getting jumped, that would have been it. Woman or not, you wanna fight and hit a man or his prego gf/wife, you better be prepared to get hit back.

I've hit a woman before for kicking me in the crotch. To me, that's a line that if they want to cross, they better understand they're gonna get punched out. Plain and simple.

I believe you should always treat women special and of course not act violently towards them. However, I think there's a line that once it's crossed, I don't care what you have between your legs, if you cross it, I'll treat you the same as with a man.

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. I believe in that but when someone has no consideration for someone else I think they give up the right to expect to be treated with consideration themselves. I’m not saying I have the right to kill someone because they don’t deserve my consideration. I don’t. But I may truly want to. I hate ignorance and stupidity and that video was full of it. I wonder if the guy that kept his cool did that because if he would have escalated the situation it may have endangered his girlfriend more than she already was endangered. It looked like a couple of the attackers would have gone to whatever level of violence the situation came to. I really do respect him for his behavior no matter what the reason. That’s enough on the subject I think. It’s the holidays and I’ve been in a good mood. Nothing like that video to ruin a good mood. :mad: OK, I'm in a good mood again. :D
