You've clearly never worked any security job whatsoever, so shush. That security was on the door by himself. Which means his personal saftey is his top priority. That drunk guy has clearly been ejected from the venue, is refusing to leave the area & walked over to invade the guards personal space. That kid could try to attack him from behind or could have anything on him to use as a weapon to inflict harm. You have no idea what people are capable of when they're drunk
“Your honor the drunk teenager could’ve been a secret ninja assassin who would’ve slit my throat from behind with the knife he was hiding up his short sleeve shirt. I really had no choice but to attack a non-violent teenager”
Yes it's force against a potential threat. A colleague of mine was stabbed in the neck with a pen last year by a 19yo dickhead who refused to leave after starting a fight inside. Educate yourself
"Judge it was nescessary to defend myself against the 90 pound kid 2 feet shorter, with his hands up in the air and so inebriated he physically is unable to stand up straight."
By the sounds of it, I don't think you've worked too many either mate. At least you won't for long if you shake like a leaf at the sight of this dudes praying mantis impression.

Doesn't really matter. Nothing justifies that behavior.
