The POTUS election has been one hell of a circus and continues to be the gift that keeps on giving.
At a recent anti-Trump rally, Shields witnessed a man getting beaten mercilessly by a group of protesters. With several civilians as well as police officers present at the scene, he found it shocking that not a single person in the crowd came forward to stop the thugs.
Nevertheless, our hero jumped in and used his vast MMA knowledge to defend himself and the victim, stopping the gang of brutes in their tracks. A few moments later, another fight broke out and when Shields approached the cops for help, they outright refused to get involved in the melee.
Some of the aforementioned thugs claimed that the victim was a racist ‘Nazi’ and was hurling racist insults at everybody at the rally; although they had no proof to back up said claims.
The UC Berkeley riots featured MMA’s own ‘Skrap Pack’ ninja who served to defuse, albeit to a certain extent, what could have been a life-threatening situation for the man.
Jake Shields’ bravery in the face of the UC Berkeley riots lands him the 4th spot on our list!
