HE'S A FREE MAN

     By now, many of you have seen this video. If you haven't, you're either not on Facebook or on the Internet all that much because this video went as viral as viral can get. I will post the video again at the bottom of this blog. Some of you might think this guy is the piece of crap for hitting this girl, but most of you might think this girl deserved what she got. I'm with the latter bunch of you. 

     Anyway, prosecutors have dropped all charges against Jorge Pena, the 6-foot-6 part-time bouncer who was arrested for slapping a woman during a subway melee. Here's the part that gets confusing; the 25-year-old is willing to apologize for the slap heard around the world, even though he did it in self-defense. He said, "A man is never supposed to hit a girl." I agree with that statement, but when someone acts like an animal like this woman did in this instant, sometimes justice must be served. Pena was wearing an 8-ball jacket that caught the eye of his assailants and made him the victim of ridicule. He said, "She put me in a position that I had no choice. She tried to kill me." The subway brawl broke out on the F train at around 4:20 a.m. on Saturday night and video became an overnight sensation.  


     Still, Pena, who works all kinds of jobs to support his girlfriend and their 20-month-old son, says if he saw the woman he struck, he would say sorry for striking her. Screw that! Once you see this video, you will agree the bitch deserved it! Pena, who moved here from the Dominican Republic four years ago, had just finished a 12-hour shift when the woman and her friends attacked him on the F train. After hurling insults at him, she slapped him and hit hi, in the back of the head with her high-heeled shoes. Another woman jumped on him and beat him with her clutch purse. I'm sorry, but if you treat another human being like this, did these girls really think that someone was going to sit there and take it? Really? I mean this is downright bullying and I can't believe that he held off as long as he did, so I commend him for that. These girls are stupid if they thought that people would just sit there and take their abuse. 
 
     According to Pena's lawyers, he plans to sue the city over the wrongful arrest. He was released after prosecutors realized from the video that he was only acting in self-defense. The case was officially dismissed on Monday in Manhattan Criminal Court after the DA's office reviewed the tape, which shows Pena getting harassed by the women. For those of you who never saw the video, take a look and let me know if you think Pena should be apologizing to this woman: 

McSMACKDOWN!

Let's start this week off on the right foot with a very nice and heroic story about a former McDonald's cook, who was recently cleared of whacking two unruly female patrons with a metal pole. Rayon McIntosh, who served 11 years behind bars for manslaughter, says that he feared for his life when two menacing women jumped over the counter of the West Village fast-food joint back in October. McIntosh stated, "Women do kill men too, and I was in fear for my life!"

A cell phone video actually caught the melee at the West Third Street franchise, and shows McIntosh striking the women with a 3-foot steel pole, fracturing one woman's skull. Oops! McIntosh would be arrested on felony assault charges and thrown into Riker's Island for seven weeks. A Manhattan grand jury refused to indict McIntosh, who clearly acted on self-defense, forcing prosecutors to drop the charges. He was released last Friday.

McDonald's was McIntosh's first job since being paroled from prison back in March, and he was working the 9 p.m. to 7 a.m. shift on this October night. McIntosh questioned the validity of a $50 bill, and that's when the two women became instant witches. They berated him with F-words and the N-word, they spit on him and slapped him, and even insulted his mother. They then proceeded to jump over the counter to attack him some more, as you'll see in the video below. McIntosh said that he grabbed the closest weapon that he can find, which was a steel pole that is used to scrape food from the gutters of the grill. The funny thing is, when you watch the video, you'll notice that he just doesn't stop hitting them, even after the camera pans away from him, you can see his co-worker trying to get him to stop.

McIntosh blames McDonald's for putting him in this hazardous position because he said that staffers had warned the franchise of owner of fights, drunken customers, and even guns in the eatery. In fact, he plans on suing the franchise owner for putting his life in danger and for not hiring enough security to handle the situation. McIntosh said that he only took the job at McDonald's to help support his daughter.

Okay, here's my take on this. McDonald's needs to wake up and hire security at all of their restaurants because the truth is, this was not the only violent incident this year at one of their establishments, and it certainly won't be the last. When I searched YouTube for this particular video, many other McDonald's attacks showed up. Doesn't that say something? Hire security! As for McIntosh, I'm happy that he was cleared of all charges because this was obviously self-defense. As for the two women who provoked the violence, McIntosh says that he forgives them. You have to see this video, though! Click it below:
