An act of domestic violence that does not go unpunished
While a man was having a quiet dinner at a restaurant table, a scene occurred that turned his meal upside down. Indeed, at the table next to him, a couple is arguing. The scene was so troubling another customer present at the restaurant recorded the events. Indeed, the companion of the lady suddenly started to shout, hit and even strangled her!
Though all other customers remained silent during the scene, one veteran of the Gulf War chose to teach the assailant a very valuable lesson. The man chose to intervene to protect the abused young woman. After standing up and going over to the table, the veteran gives the abuser a taste of his own medicine by berating him and getting physical just as he was doing with his wife. In the video, you can hear the heroic man say:
You touch her again and I'll make you my breakfast, you got it?!
Lesson learned?
The violent companion who pretended to have calmed down finally threatened the veteran back. He let him know that he could shoot him at any time with his gun. But that did not scare the veteran as he exclaimed that having a gun pointed at him would not be the first time.
The video ends abruptly and there is no news as to whether the woman had to go back to her abuser. One thing is for sure, he will never mistreat another woman in public ever again.
