Baited punk kid tries to sucker punch a street preacher

[madoka]

Your thread title --Violent Protester -- is misleading. I will fix that for you. Do this again and there will be actual consequences beyond a ZERO point infraction.

Violent: using or involving physical force intended to hurt, damage, or kill someone or something

Protester: a person who publicly demonstrates strong objection to something

Now I guess you can ban me for daring to speak up for myself against an abusive mod.





You never learn. You have been told multiple times where to discuss infractions.
You do not follow the rules. Mod callouts are not allowed.
Maybe you need to refresh yourself with the rules:

In your case 12 and 13.

People deliberately say "moran" instead of "moron." Nearly every time you have ever seen "moran," it is a deliberate reference to the viral picture in which it's misspelled.

I refuse to accept this, and am now triggered.

Punch him through your monitor.

Repent sinner!

Lol, are you for real? The kid threw a punch. What in your opinion would constitute as violence, if not an attempted sucker punch to the head?

I don't agree with either side of the GIF...but come on.




You have an issue with the moderation? Make a MD thread.

I once knew a guy who had Moran for a last name. He totally didn't act like a moran though.

Then there's Erin Moran from happy days. She didn't act like a Moran either.

 

[JM Aggie08]

We are all morans on this blessed day.

Back on topic, discussing the GIF and video: A violent protestor was physically prevented from performing a violent act against a non-violent (but highly provocative) street preacher. That's what I saw in the video.

Maybe I'm a moran.

found the video:

Someone there was making and handing out protest signs in response. Even tried to hand one to the skater who had just thrust his skateboard threateningly at the street preacher. I’m pretty sure they’re together, since the two on the ground are making more than two signs.

I can’t be the only one to notice, right?

Must be a moran. Or, ya know, just unbiased ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

So basically this thread was just a bait thread for perknose. He took the bait, but if you want to catch the whale you probably shouldn't have used a fishing pole...



You know better than to bait the mods.

I would like to state for the record that I think the moderation here is of the utmost quality. It's a shining example of how moderation and moderators should be. I fear for the inevitable collapse of humanity without the moderationary examples set forth by the exquisite people of this forum. It's central for the well-being of modern society to have such structures in place.

In Russia they don't even need a fishing pole to catch a fish:

TIL: Punching is not violence.
