Sometimes, justice does exist.
This time it took place a few weeks ago, in front of a GameStop store in Texas about 2 hours before the official midnight launch of Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
ScrewAttack was there, filming a webcast where they attempted to publicly auction their copy of Brawl. They had hoped to raise some money for their friend, who has recently fallen ill.
All was going well, when some guy - who ScrewAttack described as “right on par with the Duck Hunt Dog” started harassing them, saying that he didn’t want to be filmed. Their response was a lot calmer than mine would have been; they simply tried to convince him that if he didn’t want to be on camera, that he should just walk away. Instead, he took swings at the cameraman, I guess forgetting that he was on camera.
Eventually, he got so worked up that he decided to call the police (the host, Stuttering Craig, assissted him by giving the address of the GameStop). The police arrived, got both sides of the story, and (after, I assume, seeing footage from the video) arrested the “Duck Hunt Dog”! Justice is SERVED~!
