Seriously? The video shows it completely different...
 
Who goes to pull something with a closed fist :D.

I dont know if that article has taken some liberty with her replies but they did not "nearly run them over" nor was the any mothers and pushchairs in view until the driver got back to the car.

The closed fist was when she "swiped at them" obviously.

And if you watch the video closely, the thug does actually turn in far too fast without indicating and comes within about three feet of the couple. Totally unacceptable and most people would be annoyed.

And you obviously haven't watched the whole video. It shows the thug driving off still with his door open nearly running the old guy over and endangering anyone in the vicinity.

The old guy was hanging onto the door and got in the way of it.

Elderly doesn't mean infallible. Young guy parked in the wrong place and appears to start an altercation with the old guy (without knowing what's been said he's clearly in the wrong). Old woman tries to grab his hoody (through his head but misses?no one goes goes to grab something with a closed hand). She didn't deserve such a punch but it does appear to be a reflex rather than calculated. Old guy doesn't notice woman's state and proceeds to go for the driver almost getting run over in the process. Not really like the guy had a choice there. Either punch another person trying to get away or hope he moves out the way once he's realised.

Maybe I'm too forgiving but 3feet to me is not a close miss it's a complete miss. I don't think I'd have even noticed that.

There's blame all around here.

Pure interest are you friends of the elderly couple? Or just signed up to argue on this particular thread? :D

What a scumbag for hitting a woman, but what on earth was she thinking throwing the first punch, what an idiot she is.

Agreed she swung at him first, still not right hitting a woman.

I don't understand this illogical response. I'm not for hitting anyone, but why is it that there's this almost universal belief that someone is "SCUM" for hitting a woman regardless of the circumstances?

Why isn't some one "SCUM" for hitting a man that is less physically capable? Most people would laugh at the situation and say something along the lines of "well that's what he gets for trying to start something".

The same reason domestic violence against a woman is a terrible thing yet against a man it's just funny innit being beaten by a girl :rolleyes:

Or indeed a male teacher sleeping with a female pupil, ****ing pedo lock them up, other way round oh well let her walk no one was hurt.
 
Agree with both of you about the illogical position of a blanket 'You don't hit women'

There was the case recently of a Solicitor who just got married then lost his job, his new wife (who wanted to be married to a solicitor) was so angry she stabbed him in the heart....

The autopsy showed he had over 60 previous injuries over his body

I bet he believed you shouldn't hit women as well

That's pretty much exactly what happened actually. You need to watch the video again, or perhaps you haven't seen the alternate angle footage yet?

Friend of the couple?

I think you need to take another look at the video footage before you even reply again.

She intentionally tried to hit the driver with a closed fist. She missed, he reacted via a reflex - but yet as per usual, she did no wrong...

If you still can't gather the concept - here's a still image for ya! ;)
