Thanks, Dad

"Hang on, I'm going to kick this kid."

Mikerk · 7 months

For those of you arguing against the dad, how in the hell is he supposed to know that the guy may have down syndrome or some other kind of mental handicap. He saw someone threatening his child and he reacted accordingly.

That cashier HAS to be bitter. He missed everything.

Even if he is mentally disabled, he has to learn that shit like this can happen in the real world, even if it's not necessarily right. If he is capable of going out to a fast food place where there are kids and people running around, then he has to be "able" enough to know that he can't just go and hit/kick someone else. If he can't abide to that, then he shouldn't be out around people in the public.

I have downs, I kick you!

FALCON PUNCH!

end of story

The story behind this is: The guy(who has a disability) was on the phone and the child came trotting over whilst making a significant amount of noise, the guy got mad and yelled at him and gave him a kick, the father with instinct knocked the guy out.

kbradero · 7 months

the kid did not give a shit, he was more scared of the action of this stranger that the actual pain from the kick

Good for the father

Ignoring all the context and bullshit that obviously gets talked about, can we discuss how AWESOME that punch was? Dude steps in, no hesitation, and throws an absolute haymaker.

ITT: I have Down's too, and I think that reaction was perfect.

I don't know quite how to feel about this, but I certainly don't blame the dad. I've known a lot of people with Down's Syndrome, and I've never known them to be prone to random violence.

herpderpedia · 7 months

According to some commenters, having Down's is a justified reason for kicking a child. Sorry, the man got what he deserved. +1 to pop.

Seriously, what else did he think was gonna happen if he kicked some guy's kid

Did he boot that child in the nuts? The kid just shakes it off like a boss

ChArGeR9559 · 7 months

Good on the dad. He he was protecting his kid, no one can blame him for that.

pimpdawg2010 · 7 months

If you watch the full video on youtube, you can see that, when the woman talks to the father, he backs off and seems concerned. I am not a father, but I know that if some adult kicks my child (or even my cat!), I will punch first, second and third, THEN ask questions! Upvote for Dad!

Things that are more retarded than that guy:

*The fact that this gets reposed once a month

*The fact that it gets so many upvotes each time

*The immediate influx of people who come here to say, "OMG, NO! THAT IS AN ACTUAL RETARDED PERSON! THAT GUY HIT A RETARDED PERSON!!!"

Watch it again...That kid takes the kick like a mothafucking champ

vednar · 7 months

I've always thought that people with mental disabilities should have some sort of special clothing that was easily identifiable allowing others to know about them. But most likely due to Hitler this is never a popular theory.

poopskins · 7 months

To add a little context to the video:

The white male has Down syndrome
The woman is his caretaker
The child was not hurt

I love it how that little kid got kicked in the nuts and didn't even flinch.

OJ_287 · 7 months

If there are any psychologists and/or other professionals who work with mentally disabled people reading these comments -

Would the autistic man "learn" anything from the punch he received? Or is it just to difficult to know without knowing the severity of the mental disability the man has?

Ah... he's retarded. Still, go dad.

You can see that the man has downs syndrome.

This is hard. My dad has dementia. He used to just pick up a burger or food at a gas station and just start munching away like it was totally cool. If it wasn't for my mom he probably just would have walked out the store. I expect an unaware cashier or store owner to call the police had he just walked out. I also expect the police to understand and allow me or my mom to pay for what he ate and that would be the end of it. I don't think he would have, but had he done this I would be torn between his cognitive disability and the fact that he kicked a child (even if he is one himself). In the end I would be understanding of the dad, and realize that I could no longer take care of my dad safely. Thus is life.

There was a kid like this in my elementary school. He would always say "dish dish dishhhh" (more of a "dshhhh" really) and scream a little bit. If you looked at him and said "dish" he would go berserk. Some kids once cornered him in a stairwell that lead outside; and they said "dish" over and over, so much that he ran headfirst into the door and cracked the window. He was fine, but still...

We laughed for months. Kids are horrible.

iPeeLavaLampGoo · 7 months

That's fast food. You're always looking the other way when shit goes down. The other part of fast food: Shit never goes down.

thebeardsman · 7 months

Tard or not, if someone kicks my kid in the balls they best hope they understand when i return the kick to there crotch.

NarcoleptcSmurf · 7 months

Obviously the kicker is a time traveler. He was sent back in time to make that kid sterile because the kid's son becomes a monster worse than Hitler and Stalin combined. That guy is a hero. He just saved us all.

GSJacket · 7 months

I would have punched him even if the kid wasn't my child. Yes, he may have some sort of disability, but in the moment you just react regardless.

UnoriginalMike · 7 months

Guy got the least he deserved. Who kicks a little kid?

Alimosaka · 7 months

I remember this story on the news. The man who kicked the child had down syndrome.
