A newly minted Marine showed a little too much bias for action by body slamming two high school students who were fighting.

On Thursday, Terminal Lance's Maximilian Uriarte tweeted a video which shows the Marine running toward and tackling the two students, then pinning one of the boys to the ground before the belligerents are separated.

I hope the fellow isn't in any trouble for this.

In all honesty, his full-on tackle might have hurt them more than the fight.

Looks like the kid in the light colored shirt is a bit worse for the wear. Man did his head snap when that guy tackled him.

Considering the marine weighed more than the both of these kids combined maybe he could've approached the problem differently.

Agreed, and the statement by the Marine Corps seems to hint that it sees things the same way.   Legally, that's an assault.

Dumb jarhead.
