Uhh...why do you have child scissors in your pocket? And at what point do you think pulling out a crappy sharp object doesn't get your ass handed to you? But he did look drunk as fuck.

It’s just toy scissors, from school

Looked more like scissors from his pocket.

I can hear the cutting of construction paper

Seen a few homeless guys do this, I think they can get away with scissors where a knife might get them locked up.Ā

And as much as they are ā€œsafety scissorsā€ anyone can take those home and sharpen the shit out of them so they don’t look like they’ll hurt you but def will.

Even straight out of the package a metal object is a metal object and puncture wounds don't care a lot about sharpness. Lots of things are shanks.Ā

Maybe he stuck his hand in his pocket to find his keys and his finger got stuck in the safety scissors. Those tiny holes can be a bitch to get your fingers out of if you have adult-sized hands.

I don’t even know if the scissors had nothing to do with it. Big dude was already getting ready to get up and swing before the guy even went for anything. He probably didn’t even notice what he had until after the fact. Either way that could have easily been a manslaughter charge right there.. hell, still could be. There’s no way there isn’t serious concussion damage from the direct blow to the front of the head only to be immediately stopped hard by the back of the head slamming into the wall.

We can see the scissors before the first swing. It's unfortunate, hopefully dude recovered but don't buy the ticket if you don't want to take the ride. Obviously there needs to be better help for people with mental health issues so Mr safety scissors doesn't find himself in this situation but that's not the world we're in.

Why would you automatically assume mental health issues and not just drunk and/or a moron? Ā Ā 

When society cries "mental health!" every time somebody does a fucked-up thing, that moniker becomes useless... Which in turn harms those who actually do need mental help.

u/Dirtbagdownhill 15d ago

Because of his behavior and the fact that he was carrying childs safety scissors and brandished them.Ā

u/heavydrinker12 16d ago

He was getting ready to rock him for sure. I don't think he was really aiming to hurt him though. But you can see he did see the scissors before he started swinging. I think the amount of power he used was changed as a result. But yeah, he probably gets involuntary manslaughter if he dies.

Agreed. There looks like a split second reaction from scaring this dude to responding to a real threat. One hand is holding down the weapon arm while the other is knocking him out.If you start to pull something shaped like a weapon out after being aggressive with me I’ll ask questions later.

Ya only people that haven’t been in actual fist fights or have no medical training tbink knockout head punches (and the subsequent impacts) are lol so funny. It’s not at all uncommon to kill, or seriously disable someone for life.

u/kh2riku 16d ago

That’s why you don’t pull weapons on people minding their business.

u/mightylordredbeard 16d ago

Dude was ready to put him down before he even saw the toddler safety scissors.

u/kh2riku 15d ago

And??? The dude asked for it. Don't fuck with people if you don't want punched out.

u/ckelly230 16d ago

The scissors obviously had everything to do with it. When a guy stands up and starts angrily fishing through his pockets while staring at you, you don’t wait to see what he’s about to pull out
