    I’m going to give you guys a piece of advice from some training I had in the army. Once you’re fighting hand to hand with more than 2 people against you, you’re toast. Doesn’t matter how big you are unless the people you are fighting are toddler sized. You can put up a fight and maybe hurt a few of them but once they have your limbs you can’t really react anymore.

    With this in mind you probably don’t want to resist arrest in court surrounded by multiple bailiffs and marshals, even if you are the size of The Mountain.

      This is true unless the people are total idiots and no committed to taking you out. I used to hang out with a complete ass who was constantly getting into altercations. He could throw a punch. He’d get all these guys lined up shoving him and just drop one if them. There was one time when a guy got back up and came at him and that turned into a headlock and three punches.

      The difference here is an experienced street fighter against a bunch of green college boys.

      He would let bouncers handle him and kick him out, etc.

      I also had a cousin who had rep as a fighter and jumped a lot. He could handle three guys too, same idea. Take one out fast

      Me? Total wimp. I was always so relived when I didn’t have to do anything but act like I’d back someone up. :)

        You sound like my ex 😂. I used to defend him until I actually heard him instigating, and guess what happened when I told him he was on his own?

          Well, it’s a long story but we had other things in common and were both pretty young dudes thrown together by circumstance. As he got older he turned into a mean drunk (just to other men, he was a real charmer with the ladies and as far as I know didn’t take that home with him but that would make him unique among others I’ve known like that so I could be wrong).

          We drifted apart after we stopped working together then he showed up out of the blue at my apartment one night really late (I didn’t have a phone at the time ), sold me a good fly rod, smoked my stash, and flew to another continent the next morning. I haven’t heard from him in almost 30 years. :)

    Whew what a rollercoaster. And it took 10 LEOs to seduce him.

    Then his attorney gaslight the judge and prosecutor and said "my client pinky swears it won’t happen again, he was sexually assaulted by your officers "

    Can’t decide on “somebody’s got a case of the Mondays” or “someone wanted Find Out for lunch”.

    Either way, fuck this guy.

    None of the Insurrectionists should be outside of a jail cell before trial or sentencing.

    A U.S. Attorney declined to answer whether the Justice Department would consider pursuing additional charges against Gossjankowski related to the scuffle, although prosecutors could be heard discussing whether to collect statements from officers involved in Gossjankowski’s arrest.
