They could've had a knife or something. Also some women carry pepper spray around. He probably hit them a few too many times when they were on the ground but he was right to defend himself.

'Hallelujah!' was heard in the courtroom after assistant District Attorney Jaime Hickey-Mendoza said: 'We ask that Mr McIntosh be released.'

Vile women.

Good on him. IDC if they are women, they attacked him, he has every right to defend himself. Also he didnt know they werent armed, so while it might look over the top, he had to 'keep them down' so to speak, as none of his colleagues were helping. Might think twice about being such twats in the future eh? Glad he got off with it...common sense prevails for once.

I used to work for fast foods. It can be very dangerous. I was once attacked with a knife.

he probably went too far but I don't have any sympathy for them either, might stop them from doing that s**t in future.

exactly Vicky! Alot more of that is needed too. People can't really complain about excessive self defense force used against them, what's excessive? Are you supposed to, in the heat of the moment while being attacked, stop and access just how much force you should use to defend yourself? If you don't want excessive self defense used against you, don't attack anyone, it's pretty simple.

Awww I love all you guys. I was fully expecting to scroll down and find an entirely different take on this.

I have no sympathy for people who attack the staff. They're only trying to do their job. If people have any complaints they should just tell the manager.

Exactly Vanessa, it must be a terrifying thing to happen

I'm glad the guy was found not guilty. He was only defending himself.

I remember seeing this a while ago - sometimes I think he went a bit over the top, but then I remember that these girls attacked him pretty violently in the first place and obviously aren't nice people anyway so it's hard to have any sympathy for them.

Exactly. They attacked him in the first place.
