Nevertheless, I am an attorney with 25 years experience, 13
of which were as a criminal defense attorney, and the
video makes clear that by legal standards, the young lady WAS the
aggressor — twice — no matter what was said prior (words are never an excuse for an attack) and yes Mixon has a valid (at least arguable) self defense case.
Who are the real
aggressors in this confrontation — the whalers who are obviously trying to trick with words and scripted
video, or the Sea Shephard group and their
videos of very real explosive flash - bang grenades exploding in air just feet from the Steve Irwin's crew members?
