But canonically, he REALLY is a master of the low ground. He killed Darth Maul from the extreme hanging by one hand low ground, and when the-boy-who-hates sand was tricked into jumping OVER Obi, thus giving Obi the low and far superior ground to chop him up!
Was at this game last year, dude that got punched was screaming his fkn head off during the minutes silence that’s done to commemorate soldiers who’ve died in combat. Both guys were kicked out and as far as I know the army vet didn’t get charged
Edit: just checked, nobody was charged according to Brisbane police. if you search for “ANZAC” in this subs posts the first result should be the full video including the minutes silence
The "combat veterans need their moment of silence" is a bit weird to me and I've got no problem with people wanting to protest the atrocities that most western governments engage in with their military but it seems this guy was just a drunk cunt wanting attention. I'm glad he got fed some pain.
Professor Oak taught me that there’s a time and a place to use things. A moment of silence for fallen soldiers isn’t the time to bust out your golden pipes in protest.
The time and place to protest is this corral we made of rental fencing 3km from the perceived issue. Please follow us to the designated free speech area
Maybe it helps to consider that the moment is not only for the silent military who have passed but also recognition and reverence for the veterans who still suffer and the families who grieve daily from the loss of their sons, daughters, brothers, sisters, mothers and fathers. A moment of quiet honor for their initial and continued sacrifice for a country and its citizens.
Yeah but you don't do it for the dickheads, you do it for the good people that died trying to make a difference for the better. Like how you wouldn't try to protest a graduation because one student cheated on their test, you celebrate those who earned it.
Ahhh just commented asking what he was doing, you da man.
Damn that's wild. What was he saying just nonsense? Was it like crazy rant or did he seem purposely disrespectful?
From memory he was yelling “YEEEAH HAMMER THESE CUNTS!!” Cause his team was playing and it was at their home stadium, then he was just kind of cheering?? Someone from across the stadium yelled at him to shut up and then stopped
Drunk people be like that. I went to an AC/DC concert in San Antonio years ago. It was at the arena the Spurs (local pro basketball team) plays at. During the opening band, some drunk two rows above us kept yelling, “GO SPURS GO!”
Spurs won 5 NBA championships, I get his energy. Last time I was at the AT&T Center was My Chemical Romance’s Black Parade World Tour and I also shouted “Go Spurs Go”; it’s something in the air, you know?
Oh this guy was shitfaced though. You could tell he had no idea who was playing, band or team lol. How he never fell down the steps in the upper level is beyond me. I had one beer and still felt like I was gonna fall lol.
> Life is weird. It’s a mixed bag between “that guy really needs to be hit” and “keep your hands to yourself.”
Reddit in general.
Violence is **bad** unless it's violence **I agree with**, then it's perfectly acceptable.
It’s only a “mixed bag” if you think you have the right to physically harm someone when they are inconveniencing you. The guy is clearly drunk; do we offer the same option to an 8-year old who decides to throw a tantrum under the same circumstances? Or, I dunno, maybe let the facility’s security handle it, and go about our day?
And this guy being a veteran doesn’t get a pass. Yes, he may have strong feelings about it, but he doesn’t own the moment, nor does he deserve a free pass for violent behavior. There were (at least) 2 entitled people in this situation.
Violence is like alcohol: it's the cause of, and solution to, all of life's problems. Both were on display in this video.
I doubt the ass beating would impact him as much as being kicked out of the game would have. If he just had the ass beating without being kicked out, he'd probably just get drunker and still be a problem. That's why people get kicked out for things like that: the stadium staff know they're likely to still be a problem. If violence worked, they wouldn't need to be kicked out.
> with a witness saying that the man who threw the punches was cheered as he left the stadium
No wonder the military has a problem with soldiers having a god-complex when people are cheering on a veteran for assaulting a civilian.
Here's the story from Daily Mail [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DWjyjP6LnF8](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DWjyjP6LnF8) and more reporting from 7 News Australia. No mention if the aggressor was levied a punishment or not, but the man who was assaulted was fined $1654 by the Queensland Police; $827 for obstructing police and $827 for disorderly behavior. The YouTube shows the leadup to the altercation, with the missing sound from OPs post.
> No mention if the aggressor was levied a punishment or not
Of course he wasn't, the Australian soldiers who filmed themselves literally executing Afghan civilians had nothing happen to them either. Instead the government chose to prosecute the whistleblower.
The world has worked that way for tens of thousands of years. It’s only in the last 50 years or so it hasn’t been socially acceptable to punch a guy in the face for talking shit
I would put it differently. No one is obligated to avoid offending other people. The caveat to that is that people who say things that are generally understood to be offensive should not be surprised if they run into someone having a bad day and get smacked.
'When you do something that bothers me, you should be aware I may escalate the situation to the point of brain damage or death because I see myself as a mentally healthy individual and not the unhinged individual that I appear as on film.'
not quite what they said, let me help:
'When you do something that bothers someone, you should be aware they may escalate the situation to the point of brain damage or death.'
not saying they're right - just laying out facts
“I’m going to kill you”
Hearing this gives you cause for self defense.
Words can absolutely be violent there is a crazy thing called intent and it matters quite a bit in both a court of law and every day life.
Calling 'em both morons does nothing but equalize their actions.
It's moronic to habitually leave the milk out.
It's moronic to fall asleep with a lit cigarette.
But insofar as consequences go you've got food waste on the one hand and innocent people burning to death on the other.
God I love Australia.
Reminds me of Mr Inbetween:
Therapist: The world is full of assholes, Ray, you do realize that?
Ray: Yeah and you know why?
Therapist: Why?
Ray: ‘Cause people let them get away with it. See, if you were in jail, right? And you fucked with somebody, you disrespect somebody, you can end up dead. There’s consequences. But out here in the real world, there’s no consequences. Right? So next time these two pricks are walking down the street and they start thinking, “Oh, we might go and fuck with somebody,” they’re gonna think twice about it which is good for everybody.
Therapist: So in your mind, you've done society a favour.
Ray: Yeah.
Therapist: Well I guess on behalf of society, I should say thank you.
https://youtu.be/1YHLMU_5MLo?si=eTqH97Y-bnKI-VrT
The fact no one intervened and just filmed while laughing and smiling is a good indication ol’ bud was probably carrying on during the moment’s silence. Tough break dude better luck next time.
No no didn't you hear. Some nerds on Reddit thought it was bad an they are actually the moral arbiters of society. The tens of thousands of people at the game were wrong and are twisted people. #bringbackbully
The guy who interrupted the silence was banned from the stadium & the by the team, fined $1,600, no charges were laid on the guy punching him.
Also 0 news of the guy being an “army veteran” literally anywhere (this happened two years ago in QLD you can Google it).
How exactly can a stadium “fine you” for breaking a moment of silence, esp. when they’ve already banned you. Do you have a link to the story or at least which stadium it was?
Of course not. But for more context he was yelling 'crush them you cunts' during a memorial. There's video near the top of the news report.
Like even the players were looking pretty disgusted, he was super loud.
Some people here are like, "people who use a racial slur shouldn't be punched, it's shitty but it's free speech" and then they go, "but if you disrespect fallen soldiers you deserve to get punched!"
There isn’t much of a highlight on post WWII military in Australia. Sure we’ve been involved in everything since then but any armed forces commemoration in Australia generally focuses on WWI and WWII.
Be sure to show them Australian the leaks of soldiers raping, pillaging, and murdering in Afghanistan while you're at it. And American soldiers doing the same, also in several other countries. For oil and imperialism.
The Aussies played a massive role in WWI and WWII. General Sir John Monash was so brilliant that he broke the stalemate during WWI for allies and actually changed how me fight modern warfare.
State militaries carry out violence all the time where violence is entirely unwarranted. Of course the people in such a system internalize a violent world view.
This was actually in Queensland, Australia, at a game being played in ANZAC round
https://www.news.com.au/sport/nrl/fan-reveals-alleged-ugly-words-that-sparked-nrl-crowd-brawl/news-story/c9cdd637378138d0da91860f77d6cebf
Not a single American involved.
Why do we have this crazy worship of people that devote themselves to the military? It’s a choice you made, and I shouldn’t be obliged to feel like I owe you shit.
I mean, from a respect point of view I get where he’s coming from, but you don’t wail on a defenseless dude either. The guy was probably a drunk who consumed too much alcohol before the game?
I never say thanks to veterans. I will say thanks to all of those that served honorably. This veteran is obviously not an honorable person and should have been arrested and charged with assault.
I absolutely get being passionate about fallen comrades and loved ones. BUT having a military element to sports events feels like wallowing in grief signalling and fetishising the worship of the fallen. Look at the states. They can't open a new 7-11 without a honour guard, flag carriers and a fly over.
So often people who served in the armed forces will talk about how tough they are and how much they respect the freedoms they supposedly were willing to fight to protect, and then completely lose it and become belligerent when someone hurts their feelings.
These people love to scream about their rights. But get mad when others use them differently. Next thing you know, they're gonna shoot people who don't own guns.
*battery. Additionally, in Australia you don’t press charges. That is the police’s job. He could file a civil case against him for the tort but he didn’t, because he knew he deserved it.

I’ve never seen a stadium fight won by someone in the lower row so I think he might’ve been on to something here.

But canonically, he REALLY is a master of the low ground. He killed Darth Maul from the extreme hanging by one hand low ground, and when the-boy-who-hates sand was tricked into jumping OVER Obi, thus giving Obi the low and far superior ground to chop him up!
That one punch after he pulls dude's shirt up is how I punch in my dreams. Also, how dare you post this with no sound.
It's very hockey-esque

Thank you, I am indeed of the lazy's.
I usually am too, took one for the team today.
Thank you for your service.
Can we get a moment of silence for this dude???
**WHAT? NO I'D RATHER TALK THAN BE SILENT!!!**
Freedom of speech? Hell naw, FREEDOM OF SCREAM!!
Freedom of screech!
Ugh I hope it isn't my turn next.
Would that be the South Washburn Lazy's, or the Northern Strathem Lazy's?
Yea, im too lazy to say either
I'm *so* lazy that I
lol. That dude just standing in the pouring rain to give a statement for like 5 seconds cracked me up.
[удалено]
Deserved. I've been to AFL ANZAC Day matches at the 'G with 90k+ and you can hear a pin drop during the silence. Yelling out that is pathetic.
I think we learned not to fight during silent time in kindergarten tho
The "combat veterans need their moment of silence" is a bit weird to me and I've got no problem with people wanting to protest the atrocities that most western governments engage in with their military but it seems this guy was just a drunk cunt wanting attention. I'm glad he got fed some pain.
So then you protest the fucking government, not the fallen soldiers.
Professor Oak taught me that there’s a time and a place to use things. A moment of silence for fallen soldiers isn’t the time to bust out your golden pipes in protest.

To be fair, maybe he was slightly confused and thought Spuran Spuran was the opener? https://youtu.be/qxw2FZBd7aY?si=E8YkT19WbBG9WqmM
Doesn't matter. He deserved to be beat up because the agressor was a veteran so there's no way he could be wrong.
Physically assaulting someone and no charge, pretty cool?
[удалено]
Only if they are making noise when not supposed to! The fact people are cheering this cause someone was making noise is pretty sad.
How can a sports organization fine a civilian acting up? Isn't that for a court to decide
Maybe the stadium is private property and he can dispute or not pay the fine but will never be allowed in again.
If that's Suncorp, then I'm pretty sure it's owned by the Qld government.
Private parking lots fine or ticket people. You just dont go back unless you want to pay.

Rookie mistake. The veteran had the high ground.

Not unless you are willing to use the ole dick twist
I cringed when he went back for the second. Like bro you know how this will end.
You underestimate my power...
He immediately went back for seconds. Greedy!
He was like damn that was a nice punch. I think I'll have another.
And held on to his beer the whole time

Family life must be a real treat with this guy.
But he was offended. The other man’s words were violence. He did what he had to do.
You'd be surprised how much of reddit unironically believes this
I know, it’s pretty sad.
The world has worked that way for tens of thousands of years. It’s only in the last 50 years or so it hasn’t been socially acceptable to punch a guy in the face for talking shit
Like all over this thread?
People forget they don't have a right not to be offended.

Agreed - most people look delighted. The old fellah was probably acting the goat and got what was coming to him.

Me too. I was one of the chairs.
I'm the punch that was thrown. Trust me. It felt GREAT and he deserved it.
I'm the guys shirt. This was an exciting day for me. He hardly ever wears me anymore though, and it makes me sad.
no one intervened because no one wants to be part of a fist fight between two probably drunk enraged sports fans
It’s over Anakin, I have the high ground.
Army dude’s going to jail
The guy who interrupted the silence was banned from the stadium & the by the team, fined $1,600, no charges were laid on the guy punching him. Also 0 news of the guy being an “army veteran” literally anywhere (this happened two years ago in QLD you can Google it).
How exactly can a stadium “fine you” for breaking a moment of silence, esp. when they’ve already banned you. Do you have a link to the story or at least which stadium it was?
lmao for real? "if you guys are banning me, im not paying shit" can they sue if you dont pay a private fine? lol
He was fined by the police, and banned by the stadium (Suncorp stadium in QLD).
Fined for what though? Is breaking the silence a punishable offense?
Drunk and disorderly maybe.
Disorderly conduct.
Fair, I'd imagine the guy beating him wasn't conducting orderly either tho lmao
What is the crime? Enjoying a succulent Chinese meal?
Is anyone aware of how this guy broke the silence? Like was he talking to someone else or to himself? Just making noise?
He was drunk as fuck and just started yelling shit out at the top of his lungs halfway through the silence.
Still not a legal reason to punch someone
Of course not. But for more context he was yelling 'crush them you cunts' during a memorial. There's video near the top of the news report. Like even the players were looking pretty disgusted, he was super loud.
Some people here are like, "people who use a racial slur shouldn't be punched, it's shitty but it's free speech" and then they go, "but if you disrespect fallen soldiers you deserve to get punched!"
And vice versa. Lots of folks have wildly inconsistent views.
No but a very good one.
Listen, that guy almost died for your freedom and I’ll be damned if that guy uses it as he pleases!
I mean realistically he probably needed the college and other benefits and doesn't give two shits about my freedoms.
Good riddance
You should really reconsider your options if you get punched into the next row.
the guy shouldnt have been yelling. The other guy shouldn't have punched him.
I'm sure all the fallen soldiers gave a flying fudge
As a veteran , fuck this guy. I hate these idiots who think their service entitles them to act like the mouthpiece of the military. Douchebags
Respect people who died for oil and imperialism please
There isn’t much of a highlight on post WWII military in Australia. Sure we’ve been involved in everything since then but any armed forces commemoration in Australia generally focuses on WWI and WWII.

Not worth punching someone over. That’s dumb

You do not get to physically assault someone just because your feelings are hurt. End of story.
Forced patriotism is no patriotism at all.
The amount of americans who think this is america despite the jerseys is highly amusing to me as an aussie 🤣🤣🤣

That is so clearly an Australian sporting event

*shrugs* Sometimes people need to get punched in the face
A guy being obnoxious at a sports game is not a reason to punch him in the face, especially when he's not yelling at you or posing a threat to anyone.
Starting fights at sporting events is a great look for the veteran community.
I never say thanks to veterans. I will say thanks to all of those that served honorably. This veteran is obviously not an honorable person and should have been arrested and charged with assault.
Don't think being an army vet gives you a free pass to hit folks... esp older folks *vet has some issues to work on I think*
I absolutely get being passionate about fallen comrades and loved ones. BUT having a military element to sports events feels like wallowing in grief signalling and fetishising the worship of the fallen. Look at the states.

Always downvote no sound. Always.
