It reminds me of the 71 year old who was able to defend himself from a young knife-wielder.
"Never try to rob an old boxer"

A woman 'rescued' from an attack by a group of girls, by London mayor Boris Johnson, has spoken about the incident.
Franny Armstrong called for help as she was surrounded and pushed by the girls, one of whom had an iron bar, in Camden, north London, on Monday night.
The mayor, who was cycling past, stopped and chased the girls down the street, calling them: "Oiks".

Oiks?
Imagine Obama having his security detail break this up and chase the girls down the street. It wouldn’t be ten minutes before CNN would have him standing beside the woman as her knight in shining Armourall.
Good for the mayor. Sounds like a decent sort.
oiks = hoods, thugs, lowlifes
Brit derogatory, slang a person regarded as inferior because ignorant, ill-educated, or lower-class
Agh. Of all the people to rescue, it’s Franny Armstrong who (apparently) helped to create “The Age of Stupid”.
Ah well, good for you Boris.
I’m afraid your just buying in to the tabloid bull. Here are two recent examples of yobbos being given a richly-deserved good hiding and the only way the police were involved was when they arrested the yobbos in the second video for being violent, drunken douchwads contrary to common law and various acts of Parliament....

Oh, it looks like the first yobbo got arrested as well. Happy ending all round... :D

Worse than Yobs!
Too bad he ain’t. Boris scarcely differs from Red Ken, his predecessor. If he gave a damn, he’d allow innocent civilians to arm themselves.
“Too bad he ain’t. Boris scarcely differs from Red Ken, his predecessor. If he gave a damn, he’d allow innocent civilians to arm themselves.”
The Mayor of London doesn’t have the power to usurp English Law.... That would take an Act of Parliament....
Then he should lobby like hell to change the law.
Thanks. I agree with your take on the matter of self protection. Good point. I obviously don’t know the guy as well as you do, so thanks for the mention.
Well, a lot of folks thought he’d be an improvement on his Communist predecessor, but he’s like so many of our egotistical liberal RINO prima donnas in the U.S.. We’re all aware of how successful and accomplished those types are. When I read this story earlier in the year, it told me what side Boris was on:
Good grief, what a loser. The disarming of the populace is certainly paying off isn’t it. /s This guy should be ashamed of himself. He’s an adult and doesn’t see the folly of his ways. What an idiot.
At what point do these prissy leaders accept that the public should have the right to defend themselves? Never?
It’s almost as if the lights are going out on Western civilization. Don’t bother, we both agree that they are...
Man is it beyond the time for massive push back.
The kids who pushed that guy should have been scooped up of the pavement with a bullet in the back of their skulls.
Guns, oh... that’s just too uncivilized. English need to do their civic duty and submit to death when accosted by criminal yobs and Mohammadans.
I hear ya. That sure seems to be the message.
