Your last sentence makes a VERY good point. I agree. As I've said, several times, I am glad the clerk was able to protect himself. My problem is not with him, but with the bloodlust in the comments.

Wow, based on your opinion of me, I now have to reevaluate my man qualities. I'd better cancel all my plans...

Asshole—I am from a family of good cops (yes, even NYPD has them). And you don't need X-ray vision to see that this guy had no weapons—just eyes. And, you won't be saving me, I assure you I won't need your help. Not all MMA fighters are rageheads, but someone who repeatedly kicks someone in the head, while they're…

Again, you've let me know where you stand. And your handle does not surprise me. And I'm sure you're just waiting for a chance to do this to someone, ammirite?

Race bait?! I don't think you read so well. Full disclosure: I'm a leftist of mixed ethnicities (there's only ONE race—read a biology book, FFS). You did notice that all participants were brown, right? And what I read was CHEERING—not all, but MANY of the comments. So go fuck your racist, ignorant, pro-violence…

I don't understand this response. Are you suggesting I'm a RWT? If so, you could not be more wrong. I'm glad this guy was able to protect his friend, but anyone 'cheering' this is either having an 'I would totally do that' fantasy, or is not fully aware of the ramifications of vigilante brutality.

Am I a criminal?—it's none of your fucking business, but I am FAR from one. I will never have to worry about this, if society does its job. Submission was a comment on the reporter's words, repeating the clerk's words. Like I said, the perp got what he deserved, but I also stand by my opinion that most of the…

Oh, how the comments here would change if the 'clerk' was a 'cop'. Dumbasses.

You just described the thought process of every bad cop in the world...

Um, except when the law-abiding citizens are cops, you mean.

Jeebus, yes, he defended his friend. But that was NOT a submission, that was brutality. Granted, the perp deserved SOME of that, but MMA rageheads aren't, in general, a viable solution. And "he might have had a gun" is the SAME BS that cops use to beat the hell out of people. I guess I know which side YOU stand on…

"...he had either a gun or a knife..." ? That is the same defense people who shoot people use. That guy didn't have a weapon—or a chance. Also, the anchor says he kept him in 'submission' until police arrived—that is NOT submission, that's a knockout. I'm glad the robber got what was coming to him, but, still...

I WAS going to comment, until I read the linked article. Now, I'm barely able to keep myself from throwing up. I feel angry, sad, helpless, and, did I say ANGRY?!?!

My heart breaks for this woman. And I want to choke her attacker with my bare hands.

I suspect that the next spreadsheet will have no yesses, and all the column B notes will be the same I HATE YOU. Also, it'll be filed under Divorce.

Your headline is too long by one word. 'Twitter" is unnecessary.

I disagree with you. While we DO need platforms to discuss what consent really means, and to create places/situations where, if consent is not heeded, people can feel safe in prosecuting. But, to expect that an accused person should not defend him/herself first, is unreasonably naive. Also, the fact that she…

Regardless of gender, it seems pretty esoteric. But, I guess that's what fetishes are.

Wait, so it's fanfiction, written by men, who, traditionally, have lower than average access to het sex, so they create a universe populated by guys with canine cocks, guys with normal cocks, and guys who can get pregnant? Hmmm. I wonder if women who entered this 'verse would have breasts that felt like 'bags of…

At least for the victim__

Somebody's up to step 9
