You ‘Pearl Harbor’ a guy like that, and your opponent is going to get his licks in before you can recover your senses. Paul probably never knew what hit him until after his ribs were broken. Dirty pool, that. Never gave the man a sporting chance to defend himself. And a tip of the horns to him for actually mowing his own lawn, and not paying a minion to do it.
Fully agree, Once I was cold cocked out of the blue by a bully in middle school, knocked me down and I saw stars. He then kicked me several times. I got my butt kicked. I repaid the favor in a fair fight challenged under the bridge after school and he admitted to me right after I was pulled off him that I kicked his ass, and you’re right, mowing his own lawn. Tip of the hat to that, Senator Paul.
