[QUOTE="Triniquint, post: 107066"] My point is that Brennan believed he was reacting to an insult to his mother. Thats what he heard and thats what he reacted to. I dont believe he would have reacted to someone hurling abuse at his bar, hes taken a lot more abuse then that over the years. No evidence was presented at the hearing by Brennan's side at all. He had to withdraw as it could impact on any potential civil suite. Maybe there is no evidence, maybe he did just go psycho, but I just dont think so. Anyhoo, I'm not condoning his actions. Sure jesus he regrets them himself. All I said at the start was, dont judge a mans entire career on the final act of it. No matter how mad it was. Well to answer a more appropriate question, if it was a man repeatedly baiting me, calling my mother a whore, slagging off my bar (never mind whatever was said the night before in the actual bar) well yeah I probably would. And I'd feel it was with just cause. No idea where hitting a defensless woman comes into this debate. This wasnt some old woman minding her own business. This guy was fairly tanked up and happily baiting brennan. [/b][/quote] I tend to agree entirely with you on this, Logorrhea.
