It does show the kid flinching right before Tiggers "left hook" is coming around, so it would seem that he was expecting it, and probably did provoke a response. Also the last slide shows where Tigger was patting him on the back while mom smiles at the pair and little brother is laughing. Looks like an amicable ending. There is also a poll where you can vote. 96% say this family is not justified to calling this assault - so NO the public is not buying any of this.

Originally Posted By drawbridge ^^^ yeah LOVED those comments and agree with all. one comment in particular points out that in the slide show you can see Tigger's chin raising up in each frame as if he has pressure on his back or neck There have to be other witnesses, I just hope they come forward. I would love to see the union counter-sue these folks
Originally Posted By drawbridge was CBS the only program to interview these people? also curious if the Disney owned ABC News has discussed this on air at all
