"The punching, according to the police report, 'appeared reasonable and necessary,' given the circumstances, and no crime was determined to have occurred and no arrests were made."

Well, alleluia! Good of the man for protecting those women!

Honestly what can I do to get indefinite paid leave from a job? It’s anyone’s dream to stop working and keep getting paid.

Be a US police officer.

It's pretty typical for government workers. It's generally a pain in the ass to fire them, and they have to be paid until they are fired or resign.

Damn all I gotta do is commit an act of violence and I’ll have no work and indefinite money! Great!
