No, thank you, I'm a republican and that's what's wrong with this country - nobody follows the rules anymore.
On the contrary, I think Huerta followed the rules exactly! I take it you didn't read the yahoo link, here's the important part that justifies Huerta's action:
"I just don’t think that it's right to hit a woman. Period," Huerta told TMZ.
"I approached the man calmly and said, 'Do you know what you just did? You just knocked out this girl.'
But Huerta claims the other guy responded, "[Expletive] you, [expletive] these bitches, I'll knock out any [expletive] bitch that I wanna [expletive] knock out, I’ll knock your [expletive] bitch ass out."
Huerta added, "... and as he's saying this, he's taking off his shirt ... and at that point I was like, alright.' I got the better of him and I left," Huerta said.
The 27-year-old explained, "If that was my mom, if that was my sister, my spouse, anyone … I would’ve wanted someone to step in and do something about it."
What if the guy started whaling on another person, possibly another woman; it would have been fine to just let him do it because, "that's not his job"?
Other reports also state that the guy swung on Huerta first! What was Huerta supposed to do and what about the last portion of his quote; what if it was your mom, sister, or spouse?
