So you are trying to insight someone to hit you? is that not against the law also? so what its self defense instead of assault? in mutual combat both people are not charged with assault? i dont know im not the police nor have i been arrested for fighting. I prefer to choke someone out instead of risking manslaughter counts from a street fight. Very easy to put someone in coma or paralyze them. Sure lots of people think racists should be beat up .. paralyzed .. killed .. not sure what you wanted exactly for his punishment. So lets hear it..

You know exactly he was going to assault someone (because he was yelling and acting crazy? ) im fairly sure you are all talk and have not taunted anyone into hitting you first as it most likely would not even work. who cares about words? Threatening family and harm to spouse etc would be a lot more scary then someone being racist.

wonder what kind of jail time you would think assault should be.
Absolutely, I have never been punched for yapping at someone being a dick but I have yapped at people for being dicks. It's instinct and not intentionally trying to incite someone in to punching me. My instinct is to try and shut that shit down and I have been lucky not to get punched. That racist man was presenting himself as prepared to become violent at any moment. Instinctively I would have been yelling at him to stop it, to stop being a piece of shit, to shut his nasty fu*king mouth, that he's an ugly, stupid, mother fu*ker. I'm a dentist, his body language tells me he probably would have punched me if I had. At no point did I suggest I'm a clever girl for doing such but it truly doesn't occur to me how stupid/possibly dangerous it is until after the fact. I have waded in to two men throwing punches just to yell at them to cut the shit and tell them that they're complete fu*king morons. I have stepped between a very large, rugged looking woman (I'm 5'1") and her child because she was being abusive to the child. I have absolutely yelled at people for saying racist, homophobic, hateful things. It's not all talk AND I have never been punched. That doesn't change the fact that this situation probably would have been my first face punch due to me intervening (if I'd been there) because the guy looked to be gearing himself up to violence.

I'm not sure how I managed to twist you all up inside but I've explained myself as much as I intend to. Hope you're gonna be alright and that you can work through this. If not, that's ok with me too. Truly man, ya made some big leaps about my post. I'm tempted to puff my chest out all masculine like to scare you off or intimidate you except I make fun of guys who do that kind of shit.

Lucky you. My experiences in life have been much different. I recall one time in my mid teens while at a local bar an I confronted an asshole who was there looking for trouble. When he pulled a small handgun from his pocket I laughed at him and said that if he was brave enough to pull it he better be willing to use it. Fast forward 35 years and I can't do squats or deadlift much because my knee is still fucked up from shot. I have had similar incidence with pipes, 2x4s cars, knives, large groups of people, and who can forget the baseball bat to the face, that fucking hurt! You YMMV when it comes to confrontations, best of luck.

I’m fine with a beat down for using the n word towards blacks. Sometime you just need a good ass kicking. You are basically asking for it, so here take it.

I am fully aware of how lucky I've been. Sorry your experience hasn't been similar. That sucks!

We do not have the luxury of seeing what the man did as he appears to charge the woman. We do know it made the other man feel the need to resort to limited violence. As I don't have enough information to work with, I'll defer my judgement to the authorities.

I take it that you were an insufferable asshole as a much younger man... or at least a lot of people seemed to think so.

You are free to take it however you like. I mean if I can think of you what I do about you with only the info I have from what you've typed here, you are free to think whatever you like about me. Isn't the Internet a wonderful place.

My, what a high horse you're riding today. Watch out for nosebleeds.

Heh. If I were ever getting into physical altercations on the regular I'd try to figure out how I played into it because it's not really normal at all. It seems apparent that SNC has done that or it would still be happening to him.

I've had a number of altercation over the course of my life, mostly when younger, and my being an "insufferable asshole" had absolutely nothing to do with any of them.

You know nothing of his life and simply come off as an ass with comments like that.

I’m not sure if you’re talking about legitimately choking someone or using a carotid control but both of those things have a similar risk of killing someone.

What's "normal" is pretty local. The worst thing is being an ugly American in your own country. People who believe folks are pretty much the same in thinking, priorities and, values need to get out more because nothing is further from the truth. I grew up in a middle class white neighborhood where everyone looked down on the Irish and Poles. Bigotry and racism was rampant. Police retired after twenty years of service without ever having drawn their guns but, everyone at least knew someone who'd been "touched up" by a police night stick. Fights caused by being in the wrong part of town were common. Not knowing the rules that governed the neighborhood you found yourself in was a quick way to get a beating.

Again, are you supposed to wait until he gets back up and hits you?

It's obvious you've never been in a street fight where parents, teachers or security weren't there to save you.

Here is a hint: There is no rule to actual fighting. You hit them with anything and everything until they go down, and then make sure they stay down. You NEVER back off until you're sure they will stay down. Full stop. I can't tell you how many people I've seen lose a fight because they back off after a guy goes down only to realize all they've done is piss off someone who can kick their ass.

I know it's brutal, but hey, that's life.
You get this lesson in many martial arts classes. If you find yourself in a fight it is because you could not avoid in any other way and you have to assume your opponent will try to kill you.. So its quite binary. Also, knock some idiot down and wait for him to come up with + ½ litre adrenaline in his blood.. Yea not a good idea. If you punch someone to the ground and not follow up at least use the time to gtfo of Dodge ..

In your first post it sounded as if you where attempting to get them to punch you.

I thought it was so that you could fight them since you seemed to condone that.

i am sorry you choose to be so vague.

whats funny is you say your not all talk. but wait you claim you are all talk. That you just step up to people and yell at them for your opinion. If truly abusive you think yelling at them did anything or did you report them to CPS if truly worried for that child's well-being . Or maybe its that you just like to shine a spot light to yourself that is why you yell and make giant posts ;)

I like how you didn't answer a single of my questions. what do you think his punishment should be for yelling racist remarks and hurting peoples feelings. IMO some people are just waiting for a reason to jump on people and beat them. Sounds fun if we where in a mad max society but two wrongs do not make a right.

Only been in one fight in my life. I didn't start it. It was right after my mother died.

I've never tried to taunt any one in to punching me.

I thought I was clear that it's my instinct to defend people who are being harassed or hurt. It's a knee jerk reaction that I'm well aware could end up getting me hurt because volatile situations are well, volatile. It's not about winning anything. It's not about being a hero of any kind. It's not even about intimidation. It's about making the potentially violent situation stop with no room left in my mind to consider the wisdom or lack there of in the moment.

I'm not answering your questions because you clearly misunderstand me.

I'm gonna give ya one more go at a response but then I'm going to put you on ignore if that response is as ridiculous as your others.

I'm beginning to get the feeling you want to punch me. Cut the Fu*king shit dude! <--- see how that works?

You see the whole point of this thread is talk racist and get hit.
i asked what you thought the punishment for talking racist should be. fail to answer 3x! ;) but its cool.

Why would i want to punch you? because of words and opinions? i think that it is the other way around ;) you are the one that wishes people to be punched (and not just punched ((i didn't even watch the video)) but what sounds like possible brain damage ) for words said. what you do is delay the abuse / "violent" situation. You also fail to say if you called CPS on a abusive parent or you just let the kid go on getting abused but you did give the parent a good yelling! that's. Glad made you feel better to bad not the child in need. ;( very sad
