More like Jerry Springer-Land...
Or even Geraldo-land.

Maury land is more like it:

Video, 'When I saw the man hit a female, that was just wrong': Coach who broke up Disneyland brawl speaks out.

EL PASO, Texas — A Texas high school coach never expected the 'happiest place on Earth' to turn into a site for a brawl while on vacation.

He also didn't expect to become an unlikely hero, helping to separate the men in the Saturday scuffle. The fight at Disneyland, caught on video by park goers, has gone viral.

One solitary incident happens and suddenly this becomes a problem for the whole State of California?

Seriously???

When I visited Orlando in 2006, there were herds of youths who descended upon Downtown Disney, vandalizing it and harassing the patrons at the venues and restaurants, shoplifting and just creating ultimate mayhem.

Not once did I blame the State of Florida for such a lousy experience.

I assume Disney security are not the ex-commando types, and not paid enough to risk any injury. Most park workers are not paid enough to even afford their own apartment.

Just let the animals beat the crap out of each other.

The most interesting character to me in this scene is the guy with the red back-pack.

He comes in after three guys are pulling the guy in the red shirt off the woman, near the end. He wraps his arm around red shirt guy's neck and pulls him down to the ground, choking him out. He stands around for a bit and then just slowly walks away, into the crowd. When Red-shirt guy came to and started screaming "who choked me out?" - red back-pack guy is already gone. Its probably a good thing he just disappeared. I think red shirt guy would have gone after him if he had the chance.

Red back-pack man was the only one who went so far as to wrap his arm around red-shirt guy's neck and squeeze until he passed out. That is a very aggressive move, but he seemed rather calm while doing it and afterwards. I wonder if he has worked as a security guard or done MMA or something. If you watch the video at 1/2 the speed you can see everything more clearly.

You totally missed the point.

Disney security not prepared for a violent event that's for sure. The poor street sweeper did more to intervene. These folks walked off like nothing happened.
Saddest of all is the poor little guy wandering around crying while the so called adults in his life beat the living crap out of one another.
