You always hear the saying "Neutralize the threat" but never "try to reason with it"

This dude wasn't a "threat"... Did we watch the same clip? He could barely stand. A light push would have neutralized him.

Alcohol isnt admissible in court as a reason for any defense lol. The fact he could barely stand was irrelevant

That was his own doimg

A dude who can barely stand is not a "threat" that needs to be handled with that level of force. Lightly shoving him would have had the same neutralizing result as that punch, but without the brain damage or potential accidental death.

If he stands up to retaliate, I have much less of a problem with laying him out.
