So now because I can fight and have been trained to fight and I'm in shape enough to whoop pretty much anyone I come across I am being held to a different standard than someone else? If the guy enters my space and is drunk or threatening in any way I should be allowed to correct the situation. Even more so if my kid is present. You simply cannot compare this situation with Will Smith. Mike Tyson had every right to set things straight. IMO he did it in a very measured way.
If it’s an old lady and she hits him with her purse it’s all good but because it’s Mike Tyson he is supposed to sit and take it.
Not at all. If someone is provoked sometimes people need to be smacked. The laws totally infer that someone trained in fighting would be charged harder than Joe Schmo if they hit someone. Someone being annoying and throwing a water bottle isn't as bad imo as someone making fun of a medical condition of your child or spouse though. I'm not saying what Mike did wasn't warranted. Not at all. I just find it funny people are praising Mike but were condemning Will. This was hashed out many times by me in the other thread, so don't really want to go round and round again on it. All in good fun. We all have different opinions.
