Okay... now... are YOU joking?
The layers of potential sarcasm are getting hard for me to unpack.
Again, I don't know anything else about the story, but that picture says a lot.
Fake news ya'll.
I don't see a bottle or hat, or most of what is going on in that photo in the original clip, but I could be off.
Now, I haven't got much of a moral opinion about the girl getting clocked. I mean, going to a protest, getting rowdy and getting into a fight... well, that is half the fun, but I don't think we need to invent things.
Again, unless you are all joking and don't actually think she magically produced a bottle as she fell.
I was confused about that too. But after looking around, it's clear he actually punched her twice. The first exchange she was holding a bottle and about to hit somebody with it. The second, her hat had fallen off and her hands were both free. But in the second exchange she fell and you can hear the other bottle smashing that was in her bag. These are two different sets of photos and video.
Furthermore, she was wearing a weighted glove on her right hand. Had she been able to connect, she could have knocked Damigo clean out. Wearing that glove to a riot, I am pretty sure, is very illegal. So is hitting people with bottles. Those are felonies where I live. If she wants to pursue charges, she's the one who will go to prison.
At first it seemed like he took it a bit too far, but after seeing what she was doing in other footage, I think he was justified in hitting her. She could have killed somebody with those bottles and what is essentially brass knuckles.
Also, he did hold back his punches. You can see in subsequent footage and a later interview that she has no obvious mark on her head. Even a manlet would leave a large bruise on her face if he put everything into the punch. Damigo did two combat tours and spent something like four years in prison for armed robbery, so I am fairly sure he could have inflicted far more damage if he wanted to do so.
