Yes, that was happy ending.
But I bet he went on to hurt someone else, if not deliberately, then accidentally.
It isn’t your job to prevent that, but I would have been on your side if you shot him.
The gene pool needs chlorine.

I am sure that this guy was in lots of other fights etc... But actually shooting him still would have been terrible. This guy was probably one of the most fearsome and great soldiers that the army ever had. This was right after we got out of Vietnam so who knows what he experienced over there. But he was playing a dangerous game that night and I am certain that alcohol was clouding his judgment as well.

When I got back to the Dominoes and described what had just happened my manager said that he would have “kicked the guys ass”. He weighed about the same as I did at that time around a 140 pounds. This guy was twice our weight and at least a foot taller. It was comical to hear him blustering like a banty chicken rooster.
