Schoeler 0 Posted January 20, 2004 LOL, thats horrible. Anybody see the video of the guy harassing one of the astronauts? Â Remember this is a very old astronaut. Â He's up in the poor guys face calling him a liar and all this nasty stuff while his friend tapes it. Â So the old guy clocks him in the face and decks him. Â Don't get me wrong, I don't support clocking people in the face for no reason, but this guy got what he deserved. Â It's especially funny seeing some 40 year old guy get whooped by an 80+ year old astronaut. i think it was either aldrin or armstrong that punched the moron. the moron took him to the court, and the court dismissed the case stating that the astronaut's situation waranteed his action.(he was repeatedly harassed and cornered) on top of that the judge told the moron to stay away certain distance or face jail. Armstrong heads the astronomy department at my university. Cool old dude. I'm glad he clocked that jackass. Just goes to show you he had "the right stuff" and still does. Oh by the way: The moon landing was faked. The earth is flat and Elvis shot JFK! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
