OK, there's a part of me that's thankful this lug got punished...
On the other hand, I'm a little disgusted that a mostly female jury decided contrary to a natural law among men: DON'T PICK A FIGHT WITH SOMEONE 100 LBS. BIGGER THAN YOU.
(Disclaimer: I only know the facts as they've been fed to me by NBC news)
What bothers me is what seems to be NATURAL laws like DON'T PICK A FIGHT WITH SOMEONE 100 LBS. BIGGER THAN YOU have been overruled by the jury's verdict. What the hell should you expect if you go after someone that much larger than you? He isn't a professional bodyguard, he's a man with a family. The liberals want everyone to live by their overcomplicated code, even if most folks in USA wouldn't know right from wrong in this situation. Do you protect your youngster? Do you protect the honor of your family? Do you have to be a legal scholar to know you can protect your family to a certain extent, but you have to let the other fella go when a jury would think he had no chance? How do you know?
