There actually is a legal concept whereby someone is justified in using force against someone who is deliberately targeting and harassing them so I am not surprised there were no charges.

Buzz Aldrin is a hero and a great American.

He didn't get charged because he is Buzz Aldrin, no other reason. If you or I did that, we would be charged. Furthermore, if you punched Aldrin, you would be charged.

no one really deserves to be punched in the face for what he said but the nerd with the bible did need to shut his piehole

He didn't get punched for just what he said. It wasn't only the words. It was everything. The guy was harassing Buzz. He ambushed him first, kept getting in his face and was following him around. That is more than just voicing one's opinion.

Not necessarily. Like I said before, there is a legal concept whereby if someone gets in someone else's face and verbally assaults them, a punch can be considered self defense.

Aldrin was clearly trying to walk away and that other guy was clearly following him. I think 99% of policemen who arrived on the scene and saw the video would let us go if that was one of us.

Not as amazing as believing that no one has come forward with proof it was a hoax even though they could make millions and millions of dollars by doing so.

That's the great thing about conspiracy theories. The lack of proof, IS proof.

The hoax reasons have been thoroughly busted!

This DID happen. IMO.

Yes but all that proves is that it really was a cover up because they put so much into proving it was real!

(That is how a twisted mind of a conspiracy nut would see it)

Lol

The explanations seemed real and easy to understand... Common sense.

I think they "forced" to defend themselves.

You have to have a conversation with some of these conspiracy nuts. Not just the moon landing stuff but some of the other stuff. It will blow your mind at the lengths and levels of stupidity they will go in order to continue to think it is a conspiracy in the face of everything saying it is not. It is astounding.

The guy in the video shows me what you are talking about.

Being so in someone's face and so disrespectful when there really is no proof that what they are saying is true.

Guy should be ashamed.

Good shot, Buzz!

Not specific to the moon landing, but I feel the same about those who just accept anything that is popularly taken for truth.

The video below is well worth a view.

In short, special effects tech was not sophisticated enough to fake a moon landing!

Going to the moon was ahead of it's time...we pushed ourselves to beat the Russians...don't know when anyone goes back to the moon.

I wonder why this guy follows Aldrin around when there were 11 others that also walked on the moon.
I mean, there were several different trips by different people to different locations on the lunar surface.

At a guess he believes the first moon landing was a hoax but that they have subsequently been to the moon? Don't think many people really believe that they haven't been but there is a lot who think the first one was staged for political reasons.
