Longer video here:

1. Bet that guy has a history of abuse

Just needed a maga hat.

Prison for life looks justified.

3. +1. There should be a civil lawsuit as well

[BlueWaveNeverEnd]

4. There will be..between lawyer fees for murder defense and civil lawsuit, man will be liquidating his lake house

[BlueWaveNeverEnd]

5. If others hadnt intervened, would he have actually drowned the victim

Sure looks like it

[iluvtennis]

9. Yep that young man wouldn't here today if those two guys hadn't intervened. n/t

2. The 21-year-old was disabled and on crutches

[lostnfound]

12. Though, he was standing on two legs in the video with no crutches in sight. Nonetheless...

He may very well have been in pain (from the deadly motorcycle accident he had two months prior), further injured by this jerk who pushed him and tried to drown him
The aftermath of such a serious accident could also be painkillers and/or depression or risky behavior.

13. The crutches were plainly visible in the video. I saw them.

In case others may be confused, it's important to point out that crutches and canes and walkers and rollators aren't used exclusively for being able to stand upright. Zum beispiel, my husband can stand upright without his rollator, he can rise from a seated to a standing position without assistance, he can maintain balance too. But for mobility and traveling on his own power over any distance... and to be done safely, he does need his cane or rollator. Because someone isn't actively propped up with a cane or crutch or rollator doesn't mean they don't need them, and it doesn't mean that they are not challenged with safe mobility.

18. Adrenaline can do make you do

things right then and there, that normally you couldn't do - then comes the crash and the hurt.

24. The crutches were RIGHT THERE

[Intractable]

6. Old man is real lucky those boys are peaceful people. He could have easily been made real dead at that lake.

The boys showed tremendous restraint.

19. Thank you for recognizing that!!

[malaise]

7. Evil people live

among us - eff this monster

[Farmer-Rick]

8. He looks like he's built like 72 year old RFK

I wonder if he's on steroids too?

[Aviation Pro]

16. No, the shitbag is not built

He is a typical, fat, old motherfucker who just slings his belly weight around.

Nice way to end the golden years of your life, you worthless, useless oxygen thief.

[Deuxcents]

10. I will happily be available for jury selection

[Luz]

11. Should read "Old man FAFO how to lose the rest of

his retirement years over stupid shit that wasn't any of his business in the first place".

[cab67]

14. He's probably proud of himself.

And his neighbors probably consider him to be a hero.

[mercuryblues]

17. My guess is that his neighbors hate him

The guy appears to be a self-appointed cop of the neighborhood.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

15. I am glad that this asshole was arrested

[GreatGazoo]

20. Could have been worse for either of them

I follow a "use of force" expert on Youtube who testifies in trails related to road rage, fights, gunshots, etc. His most frequent advice is "Don't get into fights like this." Being right isn't going to keep you alive. It isn't your job to punish someone for being a jerk.

You don't know who is armed with CCW or a knife, or who is unhinged. Not worth it. De-escalate. Don't yell back. Leave or at the very least remain calm.

Once he has the 20YO head underwater lethal force to stop him may have been justified but far better not to escalate in the first place.

21. scummy to film the attack and not help. influencer syndrome?

[Conjuay]

22. Why is it ALWAYS an old dude with a big chip on his shoulder?

N/T
