Here's my personal debate. I could not stand by and watch this. Since I'm in MA, walking around with a gun on my hip is not often an option. So, there I would be, in McDonald's, watching this happen, without a gun. What do I do?
I'd have a second or two to decide. There's a good chance that I would decide badly. Now, again, if I had a gun, I could display it and tell people to back off. I think that would be measured and responsible. But, without a gun, who would pay attention to me?
If I slap at them, I'm taking a risk and probably being ineffective. I'll tell what I think -- if I had a second to decide what to do, there is a good chance that I would tackle the nearest one, and make an effort to slam her head on to the ground as hard as I could. Then I'd go for the second one. I'm thinking I'd end up in a lot of trouble. I had one second to decide, and I made a bad choice.
But why am I even in that situation??
hit as hard as you can the first time in the face....to shock them...them again to knock them down....
Another you can do is jam their nose with an open palm....
You wouldn't get to the second one. The employees/other patrons/store manager would have jumped in and held you down for the police.
In America today, walking around with a gun on your hip has become essential and I predict within a year will be mandatory.
Sliding back your shirt or jacket to show your hand on your weapon and asking, “Is there some special reason you chose today to die?” always works for me.
“But why am I even in that situation??”
Uh, because you patronized a business where something like that was likely to happen ? /s
I’ve learned where not to go after dark around here, and where not to go ever.

I'd wager a guess, that the likely outcome of you tackling the nearest one, etc...would have resulted in (at least) some of the MCD employee's and/or the camera guy and/or others then jumping you. At that point, you'd fair better if you had others there with you.
Now...if you had the gun, that outcome probably would have been different.
