All I really see is him pushing her away. He wasn't really hitting her with any force. I would like to see what caused this to begin with. Maybe she hit him in the nuts and now she wont get away from him.


I almost agreed with you at first if you just saw the very beginning, which looks like it could have been a playful love tap in another situation. But that guy was putting force on her head, she was looking like a rag doll.

I personally think he got off light. That's not acceptable at all.

Because you want to beat women with impunity? :confused:

Alright, the next time you're in a pool, stand up and make a kicking motion. See how much force you can muster. Very hard to injure someone underwater.

Also, the guy was holding her other arm and pulling her closer after every attempted blow. He was going after her, not trying to get away. I probably would've joined in the beatdown if I was there.

I wonder what the backstory is behind this. While unlikely, she could have had it coming*.

* I feel that one has the right to hit another person under very few circumstances, and that the gender does not matter.

you never know. the video doesn't tell the whole story. and while i'll never start a fight, if someone hits me, i don't care if it's a guy or a girl, i'll hit back just as hard. women want equality. fine. i'll treat you equally. don't expect to get treated any different just cause your weaker if you want equality.

The hell is he thinking in front of all those people and not expect to get his ass handed back to him?

But not as big as reason #1. You are a anti-social nutjob?

I was thinking the same thing.

Anyone else get the translucent pop up ad for tasers during the video? I was amused.

Put your nuts in front of my leg and I'll show you just how much force can be generated. The woman clearly kicks him just before that. His reaction was to strike back. I wish the video had ended with a car careening into the pool and taking care of everyone because they're all stupid.
