The offending post SUPPORTED the kick in the face (didn't just post a link Harry). That's untenable. As for self-defence argument, gimme a break.

If you keep attacking people, then don't be surprised when they push back. Actions have consequences.  

Welcome to the world.

I'm curios Kevin, have you watched the full video of what went on? The RNZ clip is very short and is somewhat one sided, it only shows the kick. The one on the Herald gives more context. Of three workers, one worker is in the water, one is climbing out of the water, and the third is being approached by the guy that he ends up kicking in the face. You will note also on the Herald clip that it can't have been a very good kick, cause the guy (protestor) gets straight back onto the pontoon and continues the scuffle. 

There are long clips on the Protect Putiki facebook group that don't show that particular incident, but they show another incident where the protestors initiate violence. You may find it hard to swallow, but the protestors have been the aggressors to date with one on one contact. With the exception of the chick in the water when the boat was pushing the buoys back.

I am curious to know if you've looked at all of the info, and that is your honest opinion, or if you are just being suckered in by some selective media editing?
