Filipino-American MMA fighter trained in Brazilian jiu-jitsu takes down guy who was sucker punching people in NYC.Â
I admire that the good guy took down the bad guy, but I fear the NY Prosecutor's office will have the bad guy back on the streets before tomorrow.Â
There is a huge disconnect between the the police and the other three components of the system, the prosecutors, judiciary and lawmakers.

He needed to understand that Asians are particularly good with knives. I hope the shopkeeper isn't now arrested. My opinion is that he did the right thing, but far too many DA's are friends of thieves.

In that part of Vegas it was probably a Mexican, but it could have been a White meth head. Certainly no shortage of them.

The shoulder blade stabs didn't phase him, but that 90 degree stab to the hip at the 5 second mark was clearly when he realized what was going on. Bad time to be trapped behind the counter.

Kind of like the Brazilions running over the perps. This is going to be more and more common and is long overdue. That sounded like a white guy to me. In the can his nick name will be Swiss cheese. What a maroon.

They must not make construction workers like they used to; in the olden days they would have buried him in concrete.

Yep. Probably should've happened years ago.
No investigation needed...give the shop owner a f*cking medal!

As much as I hate saying it the store clerk is going to jail. I didn't see that the perp tried to harm the clerk in any way. Hopefully the perp had some kind of weapon on him.

Well, you are correct, but I would give him a medal. Some bleeding heart DA will say you can't kill someone for stealing, and throw the book at the guy.

Excellent point UNC, I hope he doesn't, but if he is charged I think he could make an argument that he feared for his life.
