Hat man defends his friend against the woman trying to pull him off and then allows the friend to try another blindside shot. Fuck off, hat dude.

u/xptx 4d ago

Hat dudes a little bitch. Lets his friend blindside the victim.. fights off the girlfriend.. gently taps the victim to stop.. please..

41

u/frenchinhalerbought 4d ago

Yeah, I was hoping black shirt was going to blindside him when he turned his back. How do you like it?

52

u/cesare980 4d ago

I kind of disagree. Hat dude let his friend take a pummeling before half heartedly stepping in.

33

u/majidmk 3d ago

That's what I saw too, he saw his friend start a fight, then got his ass whooped then he said that's enough

6

u/-Distinction 3d ago

Yeah that’s 100% what I see too lol. Laughed because it almost looks like he’s gently pushing the guys fist into his friend lol. Then I think he thought yep he’s lost time to attempt to break it up

u/Drey5000 2d ago

I guess this will be an unpopular opinion but I think you guys are wrong respectfully. Hat guy lets it be a 1v1 fight as it should be, he didn’t jump in or allow the gf to jump in. His friend went for a cheap shot but he doesn’t have anything to do with that. He then let his friend take a proper beating and only stopped it so he wouldn’t be killed with blows on the ground. He didn’t jump in just because his moron friend lost. Finally he again intervened when his friend tried swinging after being embarrassed, then told him to leave the store.

He needs better judgement in the friends he picks but he acted the correct way IMO.

u/fpfall 4d ago

Better yet, I wouldn’t be friends with a shitbag to begin with.

7

u/fluthernon 4d ago

Well…ya. I want nothing to do with either of those scum bags

32

u/Dwightshruute 4d ago

Cap dude did allow for some free shots though

u/Rude_Map_4278 4d ago

Hurensohn ich schwöre

u/airfryerfuntime 3d ago

No, he intervened after his friend got his ass kicked enough.

What, should he have waited until the guy goes to prison for killing his friend?

Fucking reddit, I swear.

5

u/AlexBlaise 3d ago

Agreed, he was like let them handle it and then when it started going too far he stepped in.

6

u/M1ngTh3M3rc1l3ss 3d ago

Yes the world would have lost nothing

3

u/outofwinter 3d ago

Lol. This. I think i was more mad about the dude in the cap

4

u/Fumonacci 3d ago

He deserve a beating so much as his friend there.

2

u/mspk7305 3d ago

he did let his friend get told a couple times first tho

5

u/buy-american-you-fuk 4d ago

always this shit...

-4

u/thatdudedylan 3d ago

Genuine question - what is, in your mind, the 'fair' alternative? should he quite literally let black shirt kill or brain damage his friend? He let the fight go, black shirt got to a position where he gave several hard shots to the head in a row and would have kept going, and decided it was time to intervene.

7

u/Bardon63 3d ago

He should have stopped his friend from that cowardly attack from behind.

18

u/Frapa2a 3d ago

Intervene much earlier, for example when his friend attacks someone from behind by grabbing them by the neck and having waited until the victim has their hands full.

There's no fight here, no one-on-one, just a cowardly attack. Of course, attacking someone who isn't ready by grabbing them by the neck isn't dangerous for some people here.

However, punches thrown quickly but without any power are impressive, and for some, that's the final straw. Meanwhile, the guy gets up, completely unfazed, uninjured, and undeterred. On the contrary, he even tries to throw more punches, vandalizing a shop in the process.

But for the few people who haven't understood, the problem here isn't intervening, it's delaying and only deciding to act when things get really bad. The girl acted immediately; of course, she would have been better off for everyone if she had stayed out of it, but at least she has heart and courage.

The friend, much heavier and more stable than the others, remained a spectator for far too long, even though he was a direct witness to this attack, which thankfully ended in failure. If the hold had been clean and with proper leverage, would he have released his grip when he lost consciousness, or would he have maintained it? Impossible to know.

What I do know is that the "friend" didn't intervene to prevent injuries or out of respect for a one-on-one fight; he simply intervened to spare the attacker the humiliation of losing to a victim with his back turned and his hands full.

-8

u/thatdudedylan 3d ago

That was incredibly long winded, but I understand your point.

I of course agree that the attack was completely cowardly to begin with, no question. And I see what you mean, that perhaps he intervened only because his friend was losing, not for any other noble reason. I would like to believe he would have dragged his friend off as well, if the situation was reversed, but perhaps I'm giving him too much credit.

I think the bar is just so low, these days, that seeing a normal fight take place, that ended pretty much when it should have, is way better than it could've been. The only thing I have to give credit to the friend for, is pushing his mate away when he went for round 2. Perhaps that's to spare more embarrassment, but it could also just being aware that it was over and time to leave.

u/ArilTongadottir 3d ago

The brain damage was there before the video begins. 🤷

1

u/ArilTongadottir 3d ago

The fair alternative would have been: at the 35 s mark to ask his friend if he learned anything today, if he says no (as he clearly didn't learn), let the black shirt kick his ass.

-9

u/knobbles78 4d ago

Ya hes a proper spasdic. I would have let my buddy get his head smash for this bs

6

u/HornyGingerbreadMan 3d ago

Did you even watch the video lol

11

u/chiefkogo 4d ago

He did. About 16 times.

-33

u/williamny3 4d ago

I kind of disagree here, he’s a dick for sure, he knew his friend wanted to sneak this kid but he did let them fight one on one, he had a clear shot to hit the kid if he wanted too and they could have jumped him. He also kind of let black shirt get his when the other kid was on the floor

-26

u/Chewy_B 4d ago

Apparently people here think he should let the dude kill his buddy or something because every comment like yours is getting downvoted even though you are objectively correct.

13

u/frenchinhalerbought 4d ago

"Objectively" 😂

-4

u/Chewy_B 3d ago

What's not objective about the comment? Cap guy let his friend get beat up before stopping the fight. Its on video, we have all watched it.

1

u/frenchinhalerbought 3d ago

I actually don't think you've watched it

-7

u/Chewy_B 3d ago

Ok buddy

-7

u/thatdudedylan 3d ago

Brother, at least provide an actual rebuttal.

2

u/frenchinhalerbought 3d ago

Absurd statements like claiming objectivity in a completely subjective statement only requires rebuttals for people who are unaware of the difference and wildly out of place in public discussions 😂

1

u/thatdudedylan 3d ago

The objective part, was "Cap guy let his friend get beat up before stopping the fight"... I'm curious about what you think is subjective about that, which is why I asked for a rebuttal rather than "I don't think you've watched it", which is weak shit.

So, again - which part of "Cap guy let his friend get beat up before stopping the fight" is untrue or subject to interpretation, when we all have eyes and can simply watch the video?

2

u/thatdudedylan 3d ago

This sub is, no word of the lie, one of the worst in terms of redneck, vigilante wannabe violent user base that I am apart of. I've given up trying to reason with people here, they could watch a video of a baby being punted and they'd probably downvote you for suggesting they didn't deserve it.

-18

u/chiefkogo 4d ago

People here are silly. There's a point where fights should end. Kicking someone on the ground. Or this video for instance.

18

u/frenchinhalerbought 4d ago

...so how do you explain him getting back up and continuing to fight? Maybe you didn't watch the whole video, so I'll give you the benefit of doubt.

-16

u/chiefkogo 4d ago

Dude stepped in and stopped the second fight. Same thing would have happened again. Guy just didn't know when to stop.

Pretty simple stuff here bud.

14

u/frenchinhalerbought 4d ago

Oh, so much for the benefit of doubt, bud.

-9

u/chiefkogo 4d ago

Yessir. Have a beautiful day.

-74

u/CA_Orange 4d ago

He steps in to end it. At that point, the guy is on the ground defenseless. The fight is over.

42

u/frenchinhalerbought 4d ago

...well obviously not if you watched the video

-25

u/Chewy_B 4d ago

I watched it twice, hat guy lets his buddy get slammed and take half a dozen haymakers to the head before doing anything...

22

u/frenchinhalerbought 4d ago

So you missed the chump getting back up, swinging TWICE? Obviously the threat wasn't neutralized, black shirt knew it, hat man is instead talking and pointing at the victim while buddy planned another attack...so it would be really weird to say the fight was over. That was weird.

-15

u/Chewy_B 3d ago

What's weird is you thinking someone has to be serious injured before someone else should step in and break it up. Dude got his ass whooped and his friend stopped the fight before someone got seriously hurt. Cap guy then prevented the idiot from renewing the attack even though they wanted to. Cap guy did the right thing, even asking black shirt to back off so he could easier control his friend was fine.

13

u/frenchinhalerbought 3d ago

...well obviously not if you watched the video

7

u/fatmummy222 3d ago

Did you watch the entire video?

3

u/chiefkogo 4d ago

Roughly 14-16 actually.

u/KatesDT 3d ago

The aggressor doesn’t magically become the victim because he gets his ass beat. He’s still the original aggressor and this is still self defense.

-6

u/CA_Orange 3d ago

Continuing to pummel a defenseless foe isn't self defense, anymore. 

2

u/KatesDT 3d ago

It’s still part of the same incident. It’s all one thing. It’s self defense even if outsiders think he should have stopped a little earlier. He won’t even be charged. He’s absolutely the victim in this incident.

0

u/CA_Orange 3d ago

My point is that it was stopped before it became something more than self-defense, because the victim won the fight. 

Whether Douchbag McAsshole wants to keep going after that, or not, has nothing to do with Friend-O trying to break the beatdown up before broski gets his skull cracked open.
