Please, please...before I read the article and /or view the tape...tell me the Marines kicked ass.
I found it gratifying--if too short, as the Sheriff's men soon came in and separated the Marines from their lawful prey, the hood rats. The Marines indeed kicked ass.
There's an entertaining exchange between a large hood rat who appears to land a punch on a smaller Marine and send him back a step or two. But then the Marine steps around a comrade and lands an overhand right on the rat that sends the miscreant stumbling backwards into a heap on the floor, where he is leapt upon and pinned by another Marine, who then turns him over, reluctantly, to the deputies.
Nah. It was nothing.
