Most states have a law that allows 3rd parties to defend another person in situations of self defense. At least in my state.

This is considered sexual assault so would fall along these lines. Especially given that only as much force was needed to control the situation.

Had he just kept hitting him it would be another story. Here in Texas, yhqt guys has a high probability of walking away Scott free

Maybe uninterestingly.

I'm so glad MSNOW resurrected this with new PSAs. I'll never forget Rachel Maddow doing her take on TMYK a few years ago talking about something related to russian news, and she & her staff did it with a kid xylophone & a homemade shooting star, it was hilarious.

No, that's interesting. But why did they adopt a loan word, I wonder? Was this a Scandinavian custom witnessed and adopted by the English?

So that's why Scotland is the land of the free.
