It doesn't surprise me that he has some thugs for followers when you consider the example he has set over the years.

Absolutely shocking this is,just because he got sacked.

Clarkson is entirely to blame and completely in the wrong. This is a prime example of why we should not allow such people to continue being a public role model and never face any kind of reprimanding.

As far as I am aware, it has been confirmed that he did punch the guy. Also when it comes to your point on "there's a million and one worse forms of bullying" - It is not acceptable. We should never excuse something just because there are worse examples of the same crime. All kinds of bullying are not okay and we shouldn't tolerate them.
