    In what other circumstance is a man going to be standing on a bike in traffic long enough for a woman to get out of the car to start fussing at him?

    I do not give a FUCKSHIT about “victim blaming.” Look, two guys in a bar. They bump into each other, some beer is spilled. Guy 1 starts getting up in Guy 2’s face yelling “YEAH? WHATCHA GONNA DO? WHATCHA GONNA DO?” Guy 2 slams Guy 1’s head into a table so hard he never walks, speaks or sees in color ever again. I can have no fucking sympathy for Guy 1. I don’t care if his “punishment” fits his “crime.”

    Being a victim of a crime does not make one innocent.

      Being a victim does not make one innocent, but being in an argument does not make one guilty.

      I know you probably aren’t, but the way you’ve talked here makes you sound like the exact sort of person as the assaulter in the video. Someone who thinks abrupt violence is a justified way to handle an argument.

        Man, I saw people pistol whipped over toilet paper. The fact that what that dude did was illegal isn’t going to make your stay at the ER any more comfy. Don’t push people’s buttons.
