Careful. I was slammed yesterday and called a nut for saying we should know how to defend ourselves.
No I didn't. That's what you wanted because I didn't immediately join in with the anger at the situation or post a MAGA gif. I bet you and I agree on many more things than you think, I'm just not willing to succumb to this new narrative that blacks are attacking whites and the resulting 3-4 video posts per day. This isn't anything new...it's been happening for years, but now we are posting videos on it all the time.
I attended a pretty rough school growing up and I learned all too well about the violence perpetrated on the weaker white kids. I saw it frequently. I learned quickly that like any bully if you stand up and avoid being an easy win, they may beat you up, but they won't come back...there are easier targets. I was merely saying that people have a responsibility to be able to defend themselves.
At no point did I defend the actions of the assailant.
