News Reporter gets Attacked by some Ratchet Lady
Sabb:
I would definitely have to agree with Marie on this one. I don't really think they were causing that much trouble but even if they were there are better ways to deal with press than to throw rocks at their head... That's a pretty stupid and irrational decision, and the dogs, and the bat of course. I understand she probably has been having news reporters up her ass for a while and that she must be under a lot of pressure due to that and due to her grief, etc. However to me that doesn't excuse completely uncivil behaviour like that.
Tiger Guy:
It was still funny to see the reporter skip in her high heels and get 'bit'.

Not that I'm trying to start an argument here but I absolutely disagree with this whole thing being completely mothers fault nor is it a right choice, but it's understandable why mother reacted that way. I've seen many similar cases on the news in my country. Also notice how they say after the rock trow that they're about to leave and yet they stay and wait to see what next will the mother do. Reporters main goal is to make a good story for the public and they succeeded at that.

Yes, you're right, and how does that justify her to resort to violence? I personally don't see any significant enough reason to do so unless she felt threatened physically, which I have a feeling she didn't. I mean in reality you have two outstanding options. Stay and challenge them (which she chose to do with physical force), or go in, ignore them, enjoy your day and make them waste their time if they decide to continue. Which they most likely wouldn't.
To me it's just a disrespectful decision. It's one of those "be the bigger man" situations.

So, you don't consider mental threat as a big enough threat? Also I didn't said that her attacking the news team was a good decision, but the provocation was there.

If I remember correctly, her daughter was killed, so do you really think that it does not have a deep impact on the mother? Do you think that for her it will be just as easy to "enjoy her day" as it would be to anyone else, especially if there will be people who will try to get as much information and then broadcast it to the public? Journalists should know when to back off instead of going for all that they can get and then play the victims role if something bad happens to them. I am not saying that it's their fault entirely, but they contributed to the situation none the less then the mother did.
