Who has training? In what?
And if he's injured why is he engaging and escalating with other men out in the wild?
Who escalated anything? There's zero evidence on the video that Hayes said anything during the entire episode. You can hear Gannon shouting that the protesters were sick and supporting genocide and the woman screaming that he was stupid, that's it. How does that equate to a mutual combat scenario between Gannon & Hayes, particularly when Gannon tackled Hayes from behind? Don't two people have to be squared off facing each other for it to be mutual combat?
So the Israel guy was tackled by the Palestinian guy for no obvious reason? If thats the case the Israeli guy could have a good defense.
The Palestinian guy may have had his reasons but there's zero evidence that Hayes had anything to do with the escalation. Gannon walked by the protest and started yammering at them from across the street (unless there's evidence that the protesters singled out the guy walking down the street and started yelling at him first).
Werent both parties screaming at each other across the street with directed personal attacks?
Fighting words is a real thing. Talk shit to a loon and what do you expect?
The only two people talking shit were Gannon and the woman. There's zero evidence that Hayes said anything at all.
Watch the video?
Neither had a duty to retreat. Both parties were activly escalating. They got exactlt what they were looking for.
Where are you getting that both parties were actively escalating. There's zero evidence that Hayes said anything to Gannon and he had his back to Gannon when he was tackled, what actively escalating did you see?
That's what men do when they act formidable but aint.
Dont write checks your ass cant cash.
So the claim is other people were nane calling and talking shit and he attacked an uninvolved bystander? If so that would change my opinion quite a bit
The claim is that there was a group of protesters peacefully protesting when Gannon got upset and started yelling at them from across the street.
Ironically and sadly true.
The bad guy was the only one willing to throw down. Which is why people shouldn't risk this shit for no reason.
The guys a loon. Ignore him. Why engage crazy?
Hayes back was turned when Gannon tackled him, how much more ignoring is he expected to do?
All i cam do is work with what i got in that video. Which isn't much. Presumably a lot was going on prior to the start of that video.
Presumably in your imagination maybe, the video was pretty clear that Gannon was calling the protesters sick and saying they supported genocide, and the woman replied that he was stupid. It's also clear that he tackled Hayes from behind so how do we get a shit talking mutual combat scenario out of that.
As another user pointed out, essentially any physical confrontation should result in a self defense shooting using the logic here.
Thats a road to hell.
Shit talking isnt risk free
Again, please point out the shit talking by the Hayes.
Can you guys post the video that shows this?
It's posted on Page 1 of this thread. You're speculating that Hayes engaged in shit talking that was sufficient to trigger a justifiable mutual combat scenario between the two yet there's zero evidence that Hayes said a word to Gannon. You're dead wrong on this.
