I'm saying, at what point do we hold people responsible for their actions? Especially when today's political discourse is getting so physically violent?
Don't jump to the conclusion that he will be found guilty and jailed for it.
If it were me, yes, after I turned and elbowed him in the face to defend myself (that would have happened after he poured the liquid in my mouth), when he came back again and shoved a cloth in my mouth I would have definitely filed charges against this bully.
This is a guy that needs to have a judge point out to him that physically assaulting other citizens who don't agree with his political views isn't permitted in this country.
I admire his victim, for totally ignoring the bully's two attacks. I couldn't have done that.
