* William Conte, 39, was caught on video shoving a 12-year-old boy to the ground
* The boy, Alex Anderson, said Conte's wife was following him and his friend
* Anderson is seen in the video calling the woman a 'low life' while his friend calls her a 'pedophile' and asks if she like 'taking pictures of little children'
* Conte, a father-of-two, was charged with criminal mischief and harassment
* Residents have stuck up for Conte and one neighbor said the kids were trying to throw a dead snake into his wife's car
A Long Island man was arrested for shoving a 12-year-old boy to the ground after he caught the child recording his wife on a cellphone.
Anderson then calls the woman a 'low life' seconds before a man charges at him shoving the boy to the ground. The man curses and smashes Anderson's cellphone on the ground as the boy yells for help.
Anderson's father, Christian, called Conte a 'coward' but residents in the area are sticking up for him.
According to neighbor Michael Shain, who lives across the street from where the incident happened, the kids were allegedly trying to throw a dead snake into the woman's car with her two kids inside.
'There's video of these kids running around with their bikes, stopping cars, getting in front of cars where they almost basically force you to hit them,' he said. 'These kid are not innocent by any means. They started it, and unfortunately, the father went to protect his wife and two small kids.'
Christian, however, says there is never a reason for an adult to put their hands on a child.
'Even if they throw a rock at the car, it doesn't justify beating up a child. It just doesn't,' he said.

They can sue. They’ll lose.
Serial killers like the BTK have to start somewhere.
“A criminal charge is not a conviction; and even if he was convicted of some bogus trial, that fact cant be used in a civil trial. Even more so if does an Alford plea.”
“I seriously doubt the prosecutor can find a unanimous jury to convict him.”
That may be the case, or they could get a conviction.
However, by the end of such a process he will have a very steep lawyer bill.
“I know, Sue. But, thanks. Daddy talked metaphorically about rocks being thrown, didnt he?”
Why would someone accuse the kid of doing something that his dad used as an example?
Never rush to hire an attorney. Just don’t take to the cops, or anyone else, EVER.This case isn’t worth the time and effort for a prosecutor to take to trial when he pretty much knows there isn’t going to be a conviction.
Charges would be dropped for lack of probable cause and that getting a conviction is highly unlikely. Even if convicted, he’s get probation.
“Well maybe those kids can be dropped off in your neighborhood to ‘play’ with you and your family, I’m sure you would react with nothing but love. “
I am confident if that wre to occur, that I would have the self-control mechanisms available within in myself to not end with my mugshot in the newspaper.
Apparently, Mr. Conte does not have such self disciplinary skills available to himself.
“Never rush to hire an attorney.”
Mr. Conte has been arrested, his mugshot was taken, he was tossed in a jail cell and he is facing two charges.
My guess is that he may have rushed to hire a lawyer.
You sound like one of those “free range” parents who let your feral juvenile delinquent hoodrat spawn do whatever they want.
At the rate he’s going, your precious little Alex is going to eventually spend a long time at Rikers Island if he doesn’t get himself trayvon’d beforehand.
I can still remember when I was about 9 or 10 and I was part of a group of boys throwing snowballs at passing cars. Unknown to us, one of the cars pulled around the corner and a very angry man came up behind us. He grabbed one of my friends by the collar, as he was about to hurl another snowball, and shoved him into a snowbank. Then he proceeded to lecture the rest of us as we stood there frozen in fear, as melting snowballs fell from our hands. As he stormed away, we scattered like the wind. To my knowledge, none of us ever said a word to any of our parents about it.
We also never threw snowballs at cars again.
“end with my mugshot in the newspaper”
Except for your obit, when a feral hoodrat like Alex murders you.
“Except for your obit, when a feral hoodrat like Alex murders you.”
While it is apparent that many people to not have such skill sets, I am confident I can handle the antics of a 12 year old kid without ending up in jail.
“At the rate hes going, your precious little Alex is going to eventually spend a long time at Rikers Island if he doesnt get himself trayvond beforehand.”
Again, the only person in this case who was arrested, had his mugshot takes and had a body cavity search was Mr. Conte.
And we also know his wife was breaking the law by using her cell phone while operating a motor vehicle.
Your story played out exactly as it should in a sane world. Teaching respect for elders is key but unfortunately schools teach just the opposite now because elders tend to have those pesky conservative opinions. The liberal teachers union feels it’s better to teach kids that the older generations are foolish and dumb and to be fully discounted to make way for their brave new world.
I have read all your idiotic replies. I especially like the one where you say you could handle any 12 year old without getting physical. I guess you don’t read the news stories about all the 12 year old thugs who rape, assault, and otherwise perform criminal acts on both adults and children. Maybe they don’t post those stories on the MSM for you to watch. At any rate, I agree with those who disagree with you, especially the one who says you are on the wrong site. You sound like a liberal troll; you know full well that FR is a site created just for conservatives, but you, like that crybaby 12 year old who deservedly got his butt kicked, think you don’t have to play by the rules. Remember how Giuliani spiffed up New York, when he was Mayor? By going after scofflaws. You owe everyone on this board an apology, and need to limit your comments to sites designed especially for liberal clods like yourself.
No where have I defended the kids actions.
However, I do expect more vivil behavior from a 39 year old man than I do a 12 year old child.
I there is evidence that the 12 year old kid broke any laws, he should be arrested.
Being that Mr. Conte has been arrested and charged, it is apparent that there was enough evidence for him to be charged.
Yeah sure.
There are “children” who have killed adults using guns, knives, baseball bats, etc.
So keep on living in your bubble.
“And we also know his wife was breaking the law by using her cell phone while operating a motor vehicle.”
OMG! EXECUTE HER!!!!!!!
Yes, but this kids in the video had no knives, guns or even baseball bats. If they had, they would have been arrested.
So, for me. I will continue to live my life and not be in fear of 12 year old kids.
Did I say anything about the God damn kids in the video having those weapons?
No!
I pray that you did not or can not contaminate the gene pool with your naive stupidity because it’s people like you who create the little monsters in that video, and the trayvons, the michael browns, and the other feral sociopathic hoodrats who have absolutely zero respect for adults including their own parents.

Lol, just what FR needs, another obtuse troll. What were your previous screennames?
