This man should be given a award. Now ref to the drug addict POS let him handcuffed and place a bag over his head and place tied to a sound dead room. No medical treatment should be wasted
He's done as far as career. He might even get charged.
"“If he never knew the consequence of spitting in a grown man’s face, then consider my actions public education and this video a PSA,” Those are some of the most beautiful words.
There's no excuse to punch a handcuffed man, but racism comes borderline close lmao
Its a felony to spit on a firefighter here..i wonder if it is there. Good for you Lt. Looks like little boy needed to find out what consequences are.
FAFO. I see nothing wrong here.
What happened to the fire station employees when they threatened his family with death
You have to ask yourself why wasn't this man strapped into the bed being erratic and agitated?It was just a matter of time before he spit on someone, unfortunately the guy hit him being a paramedic. Sometimes blood can get on you, So start punching?
Good too bad they didnt let him continue the beating
I would have done the same
He did the right thing twice. Punching and not apologizing.
ASSAULT. DEFENCE, FINISHED. 😂
from 8 to 80… spit on me and I'm trying to take your head off.
I stand with the firefighter
Now let the cop be white…and the handcuffed person be black. Riot time!
Hate crime for sure. Oh wait…black people are allowed to do that. Nevermind
Good for him. Some people just need there azz kicked
Your fired violence is and should never be an option when wearing a medical uniform Please report on your next pay date to collect your last paycheck Give the patient a ine time payment of $50,000 $10,000 for blow. Abusing deug addicts experiencing a drug effect should be placed in mental institution for further evaluations. The time the patient spends inside of the institution that's doing the evaluation is HIS PUNISHMENT.
I totally find him in the right.good job sir and thank you
It your reflex something so bad as that you going to react doesn't excuse him but I do understand.
NO REGRETS!!!!✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
NO REGRETS!!!!✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
That first punch woulda devastated that guy. He’s lucky
There would be more sympathy for the firefighter if he would have spoken the truth, He lost his temper. But he didn't he doubled down and said he had no regrets. Therefore he shall received a due conviction of assault and never work as a firefighter again. Amen
That was really nice watching. These punks think they can do whatever they want. Unfortunately he’s definitely gonna sue and we taxpayers will end up making him rich.
You spit in my face, your gonna loose teeth.
The guy that spit looks like a waste of good oxygen. Let’s hope he finds a fatal dose of fentanyl soon. Give that firefighter his job back!
The firefighter should be fired and put in jail. He is the professional. He is on the job assault a handcuffed men. That is a felony in most places and he thinks that he did a good job.
The commentary on this thread is disgusting and full of wickedness. If that had been an animal folks would call it what it is, a rage induced beating. He may have deserved it but the firefighter failed at his job that night. He was handcuffed to a bed and incoherent on narcotics. They all could have taken 20 steps back and he would not been able to spit on them. Instead that firefighter chose to take out his own personal rage on someone he felt deserved it. Condemned.
He said all he needed to say. No regrets . 👏
Excellent. No punch really landed, but that pos knows now. Give him a medal.
Thats the right kind of education……😆
Spit is assault and I support this firefighter 100%
Now her has to be tested for a host of diseases and hope he didn't catch something.
I spit in the face of NBC News. Happy holidays
