Gee, I Wonder Why Pops Doesn't Like Your Boyfriend

From Firehouse.com: City officials have decided against suspending a longtime firefighter who was arrested and charged last week with assaulting his adult daughter's boyfriend with a metal tiki torch....
The boyfriend reported the alleged assault at the Methuen police station, saying he was waiting in a van in Grant's driveway when Grant attacked him. Grant's daughter and her boyfriend have a baby together, and the couple was dropping off the child for the Grants to watch, according to police....
Grant's daughter told police her father is unhappy with her situation, and does not like her boyfriend because of his criminal record. According to court documents, the man has had convictions on charges including home invasion, armed burglary, armed robbery and drugs.  http://www.firehouse.com/news/11268775/haverhill-mass-firefighter-returns-to-work-after-assaulting-daughters-boyfriend
Oh, I don't why dad would be upset with the boyfriend, after all, he seems like an upstanding citizen.
I generally don't like jury nullification but I hope a jury would not convict this guy as he had every right to be upset with the daughter's boyfriend thug and the father of his grandchild.
and hopefully the daughter will learn that thugs are thugs and their relationship will not end well and it help screw up the little baby's life.
