This is concern trolling. How many women have the physique and fighting skills of Ronda Rousey? Seriously. How many women in this country are trained in hand to hand combat, martial arts, and have the musculature/body mass to back it up? For you to drag her name into this under the pretense of trying to bring…

Am I wrong to want to have this discussion?

Wrong? No. An idiot? Yes. Assault is a crime regardless of who is beating on who. Intimate partner violence is frowned upon regardless of who is beating on who. Your "what ifs?" are the questions of a child who heard boys shouldn't hit girls and hasn't had a single thought about it since. Now it's suddenly occurred to…

No, it wasn't. It wasn't in any way, any of her fault. She's fucking 9 years old for goodness sake. This is absolutely 100% the fault of the fuckwit who put an uzi in her hands, switched it to fully automatic, then told her to pull the trigger. The fully grown adult who, at any point, could have said "You know…

My guess is asshole parents who want to brag about how their kid shot an Uzi in "my kid is cooler than your kid"-pissing contests

Good. You know how much emotional harm has been caused by Jesus and his freaks?

Agreed. If he disrupted a holy ceremony or caused damage to the statute, I'm totally there for misdemeanor charges. But this? This is just harmless stupidity. If Jesus is all that offended I'm sure he'll have a sit down with him or send him to time out in a molten pit.

The great war is between death and life, Swift and Perry. If we lose... the night will never end.

Right? She is like the most passive aggressive bitch in the world! I was willing to shrug off all the kissing and telling, because basically any songwriter does that to some extent, but this is just beyond. Grow some balls, Tay, and settle your scores in person.

"When Higgs came back the next day...."

Bugs better break out the jigsaw, it'll be a lot more complicated than Florida.

Nope. Exactly cynical enough.

I think the issue that women at UF have is that it took them 4 instances over the course of 9 days to actually move shifts around so there were more police available during times that the attacks tended to occur. Their response has been too slow.

You are awesome.

I hate that I feel like most cops these days are either abusing people or harassing citizens for minor violations to drum up revenue (for more tanks, I guess). Are there any left that are actually committed to protecting their communities?

My thoughts exactly.

6'4", 250. Evasive enough to make a fast retreat. Wears school apparel.

Major props to both the victims for defending themselves, and to the bystanders who got actively involved in chasing off this asshole. A normal attacker can be scary enough, but when he's a 250 lb, 6'4 beast that takes some serious courage.

Hopefully the police catch this bastard.

Oh, uh, okay. So he's angry that people are . . . blaming the perpetrator.
