  I believe that in the incident you referring to, it was Buzz Aldrin who did the punching. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/buzz-aldrin-punched-conspiracist/ https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/buzz-aldrin-punched-conspi...

  > Remember, a judge let Neil Armstrong off for punching a moon landing denier in the face due to persistent taunting. That didn’t happen. The person you mean was Buzz Aldrin and it looks like there weren’t even charges filed, and there was no judge involved.

  > That being said, as an American, the culture of mocking and gracefully learning from being mocked runs deep in my blood. I don't know if others share that same worldview. This is quickly getting forgotten.

  > as an American [...] I don't know if others share that same worldview. I'm far from American, but have the same "blood", but I think it has nothing to do with being American/Swedish/Spanish/whatever, some people have different personalities, upbringings and strengths/weaknesses simply. Americans aren't "tougher-skinned" by default or anything, at least I didn't get that experience from interacting with Americans.
