Just watched it a couple of times and maybe he should have just plowed forward although he had a least a hand laid on his back in a pushing motion.
He stood his ground with a bunch of ‘feral cats’ surrounding and closing on him— since no way he can take all of them out, should have continued moving forward.
After he shoved the ‘lil darlin’ she bum rushed him and he decked her...ONE THING DID HAPPEN.....the cowards dispersed and yes, it did look like a set up and I do wonder how many cameras were rolling.
I carry a Ruger .380 that basically fits in the palm of my hand and I know it is no match against a crowd OTHER THAN, the cowards will probably ‘cut and run’ once you have drawn it—Firing it will probably get them moving faster....the idea(mine) is to ‘get the hell out of Dodge before they can regroup and realize they have the ‘upper hand’
It don’t matter how he moved...It’s irrelevant. The man was assaulted by the mob first prior to defending himself.
