A few years ago I was walking in the city centre of Bergen when a bloke came up to me, asking what I was looking at, before starting to shout at me, clearly wanting a fight. Friends stepped in and he didn't get what he wanted.
It's the only time I've been near a fight. If my mate hadn't stepped in I think he'd tried to punch me and I don't think I'd turn the other cheek. Maybe I'd broken his jaw and gone to prison?
If we don't know any facts, apart from the police letting Madine off, despite the likeliness of witnesses being present, isn't it harsh to assume Madine was being the aggressive part?
