So netizens generally believed that Song Tongming was throwing his weight around, and even if a small-time thug harassed his girlfriend, it didn't warrant a death sentence.
But now, the complete surveillance video was released.
The arrogant and unreasonable behavior of the few hooligans was very off-putting to the netizens, and... it was also clear that those hooligans tried to forcibly take Su Aiyun away before Song Tongming took action. Song Tongming wasn't excessively violent either; he only threw a couple of punches before the thug died.
Many people are now cursing the thug, saying his death was well-deserved. They claim it's good that he died, as such people, if left alive, could potentially harm countless innocent girls in the future.
Others criticized the indifference of the bystanders.
It could be said that the little hooligans were attempting to kidnap someone in broad daylight on a bustling street, with passersby all around, but nobody stepped in to stop them.
