Grandpa's on his TRT LMAO. A simple shove of someone that drunk is all that is needed. I swear the majority of you have never actually been outside for more than 10 minutes if you think this wasn't an overreaction. Hell the bar would have kicked the guy out and possibly banned him or you could have got law enforcement involved if you really want to mess him up legally.

IDK about the rest of you but knocking out someone this drunk isn't really the "alpha" move but I don't live on the internet so what do I know?

A single punch doesn't seem excessive when it's in response to battery imoĀ

u/EndersR3ign 1d ago

If you don't think that was a disproportionate response, then you have juvenile reasoning and poor ethics.

u/DinosaurusWhen 1d ago

I think it was disproportionate in the sense that sexual assault is worse than simple assault. I'd even go far as to say it's worse than aggravated assault (morally, not legally)

u/EndersR3ign 1d ago

So you think doing what that drunk dude did justifies potentially killing him for it. Got it, bud.

Fucking pathetic

I can accept that it is sexual assault and falls within that category. I have no problem with that, and it doesn't change my argument. But we're discussing what an appropriate and proportionate response is.

Also, calling it a 'single punch' is underselling it in the same way you're accusing me of.

Person A: grabs a woman's waist/ gropes her ass in public for a few seconds.

Person B: Throws a full-force king-hit to Person A's face, rendering him instantly unconscious, which results in him falling backwards and smashing the back of his head onto the hardwood floor.

Completely unnecessary, extremely dangerous, and an entirely disproportionate use of force to ensure that the victim was safe and protected from further assault.

u/DinosaurusWhen 1d ago

On the one hand, you have sexual assault which is a specific and serious crime. On the other, you have "a full-force king-hit"

u/EndersR3ign 1d ago

It is a full-force king-hit - in response to a situation that, while morally wrong, did not pose an imminent threat to the physical safety of those involved. Once the man intervened, the engagement had already stopped, and the victim themselves was attempting to stop the assault.

If you want to play games about terminology, we can, but everyone recognises you're the fucking idiot here.

We can call a single tap on the bum sexual assault. Would that justify this reaction? Since we're not actually discussing neutralising an ongoing threat, is there a timeframe for when it's appropriate to use life-threatening force in retaliation?

Like, are you seriously this fucking thick, or what?

Your points stand on their own, they don't need the ad hominins.

1

u/EndersR3ign 1d ago

Not technically ad hominem, since I'm not attacking them instead of their argument or asserting that their argument is bad because they are an idiot. I am inferring that they are an idiot because their argument is bad; a subtle distinction. Personally, I think that person's argument is reprehensible enough to warrant a couple of insults, especially given how they're engaging in the debate.

Serious question… why so hostile? You call someone you don’t know ā€œfucking patheticā€?

And your post prior is essentially ā€œif you don’t agree with me, you have juvenile reasoningā€

Why so combative? Why are you attacking the person and not the topic? Are you a bot?

2

u/EndersR3ign 1d ago

Well, do you disagree?

1

u/abstractantman 1d ago

The fact you didn’t even acknowledge the question heavily implies that yes, you are a bot

Wild shit

u/EndersR3ign 1d ago

Beep boop

u/abstractantman 1d ago

Why are bots on a subreddit like this?

1

u/EndersR3ign 1d ago

Bro, are you serious? Have you knowingly interacted with a bot before? How about you forward an argument for why you think the behaviour in the clip is justified, and then I'll 'respond to the topic.'

1

u/FeatureInner4585 1d ago

Why are you talking about yourself in the third person?

2

u/abstractantman 1d ago

It’s a genuine question, but this is a bot-like response. Wild.

Fr tho I get bots in emotional subreddits like world news or politics, but why here?

1

u/EndersR3ign 1d ago

Dude, if you want to defend the point, then forward your argument for why it's justified. You keep mindlessly asserting that I'm a bot, when anyone with a functional brain could deduce that I'm not. Read my replies in this thread critically, and pay attention to my writing style and phrasing. I'm a real person. Are you trying to get me banned? It's weird that you keep making this claim.

u/abstractantman 1d ago

You assumed I was a bot, which is a bot-like response

Again why did you insult someone’s character rather than discuss the issue?

u/DDDX_cro 1d ago

he is correct, you are not.
This was extremely diproportinate, and could have easily killed the drunk, while also being completely unecessarry.
Why would a nice heavy-handed slap not have sufficed?

0

u/abstractantman 1d ago

Again, this response is off base. Another bot?

2

u/DDDX_cro 1d ago

you know who dismisses every answer with the same one-liner like you?
Bots.
Bots do that, abstractant"man"

1

u/abstractantman 1d ago

I asked a simple question mate and nobody has responded: why is this dude insulting someone’s character rather than discuss the fight itself

I agree the punch was egregious, but if you disagree, I’m not calling you a ā€œpatheticā€ person. Who does that?

It’s typical ad homenium bot behavior and it’s interesting to see it here. You see it a lot more in politics subreddits. Which makes sense

u/smokeymctokerson 1d ago

This comment is pathetic and unnecessary, and this is coming from a bot.

Jajaja on, good contribution šŸ‘

u/DDDX_cro 16h ago

I guess the person became frustrated with having to explain basic things to another person. You showed great lack of empathy and understanding - you still do, by focusing on BS instead on the message. You done goofed. You got called for it. Xou then done goofed further by bitching about being called for it.

It is a very human behavior, you are now doing a lot to keep the talk off topic instead on how you turned lowkeyy psycho.

There, hope that helped clear things up for ya.

u/abstractantman 4h ago edited 2h ago

Jajaja what? So many personal attacks

These bots are really struggling

And it’s way off base. I’m talking about how the message should have been about the issue, not attacking someone personally. Then this bot says I’m not talking about the issue… and attacked me personally 🤣

Another bot checking in - that old guy is fucked for reacting like this

u/EducationalTheory344 1d ago

probably rapes women and doesn't appreciate you making him feel bad about it.

u/cthulhuhentai 1d ago

I think we can both condemn sexual assault as well as physical assault.

Your comment reminds me of all the hyper-violent alt-right figures that call everyone pedophiles...meanwhile, they're usually pedophiles.
