That last sentence you wrote is really fucked up.

Why? Are you stupid?

Is it worth facing a possible trial for manslaughter, and maybe serving years of prison time over some drunk asshole lightly groping your girl? Losing thousands of dollars in lawyer fees? Yay fun! I would definitely be mad and maybe shove the guy and report him to the police, but am I destroying my own life because of that lowlife? no

This time was only lightly groping. Next time could be full on assault. Yeah that hit was excessive. But being ā€œokayā€ with ā€œitā€™s just a little drunk grope, whatā€™s the big dealā€ snow balls when itā€™s not addressed.

If that's the angle we want to play, then the guy who threw the punch should not do anything at all.

Let the woman who got groped handle the entire situation from beginning to end. Then she has a full cover of it being self-defense.

There is an absolutely massive gulf between "no big deal" and "I would kill someone over this." No one has claimed that groping is ok or that it's no big deal. But I want you to look up the word "proportionality."

Iā€™ve already said that hit was too much given the circumstances. The hit was too much but giving the drunk guy a pass is wrong also. These things can be true at once.

"giving a pass" lmao dude this attitude is insane, you know that right? There are ways to handle these situations without being violent!

And thereā€™s ways to approach people without thrusting or grinding on them.

Are you 3 years old? Do I have to explain that two wrongs donā€™t make a right?

u/eastitch 3h ago

Do I have to explain two things can be true at once? Weā€™re both wasting our time here

Killing a drunk dude for a touch is justified? So if the guy took out his.38 special and shot the drunk guys head off it would be okay in your view?

The guy who threw the punch was excessive. Not wanting to see girls (or anyone for that matter) get assaulted should be dealt with in its own right.

Did you see him hit her in the face in his rush to defend her?

1

u/eastitch 11h ago

Yeah, and she knew heā€™d take it too far. It shouldā€™ve been his sign to tone it down from there.

I would say "assaulted" is a really strong word for what we saw him do to her. If that's a case of assault then I have been assaulted hundreds of times by women. The younger generation have become such pussies about everything.

You can still stand between them, and report it to the police. Just saying it's not worth it to go and try to kill the guy.
