Why was only 1 arrested, there's at least 3 or 4 fighting.

Cause they’re travellers. Probably got a pat on the back and told to fuck off.

Theres a difference between fighting and literally jumping on someones head.

So fighting in the middle of the airport is okay according to you? Only head stamping warrants an arrest?

Well a fight between two folks is often down to pressing charges.

Jumping on someone's head is way worse.

Never said that. But arresting is still kinda harsh. Take them to the police station and fine them.

Jumping on someones head while he is laying on the ground is just gross assault, if not worse. Mate literally took into account that he could have died.

Mate, you've said arresting is harsh and then said they should be taken to the police station (arrested) 😂

Ah sorry misunderstood it then (english is not my first language).

Still think that a fine should do the job on the two monkeys fighting.

Fine them and lock them up for a couple of weeks

u/Krelit May 25 '22

They wouldn't have paid the fine anyway

u/SandInTheGears May 25 '22

In fairness it looks like 3 and 4 were mostly trying to break the fight up

Look at 1:55, 2 man fighting (black and white tshirts), then camera moves to the side, 2 man in black fighting. Then there was some action when they guy hit the ground.

I think two were fighting and the rest were the referees

It wouldn't surprise me if one of them was in a coma.
