Key point.... this was not a security guard .....
Albert said during the press conference that the brawl erupted after a group of people on a private pontoon boat refused to move from the dock where the Harriot II Riverboat was supposed to dock.
Members of the private pontoon boat then attacked the co-captain of the Harriot II, which resulted in other members of the boat jumping off and getting involved in the altercation.

Clip showing more of the start of the brawl. Can't wait till the guard is interviewed so we can hear what white attackers said to him. Looks like a scene from the movie Ghosts of Mississippi but the way I would have scripted it. For once a happy ending for black people. Let's hope the sequel has more good news resulting in the attackers going to jail and getting doxed.

Same.
As another white guy, one who despises both rednecks and asshole boat owners who think they own the place, I'd have gleefully hopped into that one. I don't know about drowning anyone, but as a resident of the The Keys for several years who spent a lot of time in marinas and dock side restaurants, I have absolutely zero problems with tossing/pushing a violent drunk asshole off a dock. Practical for groups too. Uber wedgie-walk them to the edge, then shove them in with a firm stomp. I'm totally serious about the wedgie, it's the unsung hero technique of breaking up fights IMO. Not recommended on females in swimwear.

The guard was not a guard but the co-captain of the tour boat, they had been trying to get the party boat to move for 40 minutes.
He was put ashore by a smaller vessel to go talk to the party boat´s operator.
The people who came to his rescue were passengers of the tour boat. The captain nosed up to the dock to land them when the fight started.
I thought it would be handy to have a summary of the facts so far. The party boat people are entitled assholes.
I hope they all get charged, but I fear that the chair wielder will get charged too.

Charges filed. More may come. Hopefully no black people are charged. That would be justice.
Cops ID and Charge White Antagonists in Wild Alabama Dock Brawl

chair guy is definitely going to get charged. No way that Karen isn't going to press charges against the only dude being arrested in the video.

I like his videos because he gets right to the point. I do agree with a lot of his opinions.
However this video makes me cringe. He actually says -“hollowed ground”, instead of “hallowed ground.“ If the point of your article is to highlight this historical area of the fight place make sure your terms are correct.
My other nitpick was when he said take this “likley”instead of take this “lightly.”

In the one instance, it was native american site and we had archaeologists on staff running around checking out what we inadvertently uncovered. It was interesting and they had a closure ceremony to reinter any remains or artifacts that we dug up. We disturbers all attended the ceremony.

Like I thought from the beginning. To claim this attack had zero to do with race denied their own eyes. I expect a retraction from FDC and purbeast0. I bet those two would look at a clip from the attacks on the Edmund Pettis bridge and say that had nothing to do with race
