What a breath of fresh air!
I didn’t know that there were any male actors that were real men. I thought they were all neutered and became extinct.
Good for him.
More men shouldprotect their wives.
It takes guts for an 82 yo man to slap anyone who offends his wife. Good man.
Good show, Gene. You’ll become an Enemy of the State. For real.

Knight, not a cannon. Maybe if more people did the same or similar, some other folks would be more civil....
Not really. Alec Baldwin will slap his wife to protect her honor.
It takes guts for an 82 yo man to slap anyone who offends his wife. Good man.

The aggressor is ‘lucky’. The ‘movie image’ Gene Hackman portrayed would have shot him - at least worked him over or sicced ‘Superman’ on him......
With the quality women that some of these male actors marry, that might be necessary.
We were a much more civilized society when there was a good possibility we would be on the receiving end of a punch if we behaved badly.
Not today, as we have been so emasculated that we dare not defend honor without fear of the JBTs being called and some bottom feeding lawyer looking for a quick buck.
Now cops are called for even the most minor altercations which used to be resolved by the combatants.
Good for him.Some men still know what it means to be a man.
Wow, talking about biased writing!
"Admits", as if Hackman were guilty of something criminal.
"Homeless", a loaded adjective, i.e. "rich dude tramples on the poor & disadvantaged".
Yellow Journalism at its best!
One wonders if the Albuquerque police would have been less solicitous of a person who wasn’t quite as famous.

...or turned him into hotdogs...
tip for the homeless:
never fold your “bet you can’t hit me
with a quarter” sign
Just because the guy is homeless he should be accorded some special leeway for acting like an ass?
