She shouldn't have gone after a guy twice her size, it was a dumb move. All I'm saying is it is imo wrong for a guy to punch a girl half his size in the face under almost all circumstances. There are a few extreme circumstances where I would not blame the guy, but that certainly was not one of them
There is much more and I posted it. Go back and read what happened according to the police.

Guess I'm in the minority. The guy threw a straight right to her face about one second after she ran up to him. Cannot even see from the video what she did. If a girl slaps or even punches me, my first reaction is not to sock her in the mouth with a right hand. Guess not many people share the same point of view these days?
I compared it to 13 year old kid because they are the same size and pose the same threat to a guy his size

Any hypocrites in this thread? If the b from the other video deserved to get punched then this b deserves it also according to a lot of male posters from the other thread.

Btw, imo...no man should hit a woman.

Of course you are in the minority. Your logic doesn't make any sense.

Are you telling me that I can go around and assault people bigger than me and expect them not to defend themselves just because they're bigger? That's basically what you're saying. You're telling us that just because he was bigger, he has no right to defend himself against his attacker.

Don't try to bring harm to somebody and expect them to take it just because they're bigger than you.

She deserved it.

SO where do we draw the line as far as a man "defending" himself from a girl hitting him in the face? Does he get to use his fist and punch her as hard as he can, knocking her unconscious? After all, she might have hit him as hard as she could but he hardly budged. He gets pissed and instead of just slapping her he knocks her as hard as he would a 210 pound man.

I don't know. I think she deserved what she got but that doesn't mean a man can fight women like he would fight a man his own size.

I know for sure many guys have been taught not to hit a female. Like I said, he had other avenues of defending himself besides socking a female half his size in the mouth.

IMO they were both wrong. I would agree the girl is more to blame, but the guy was not justified in his actions either

Her butterfly punches can't hurt you.
You on the other hand can hurt her plenty.
Uh; IF a woman KNOWS where to hit; she can drop even a MMA dude down.

Apparently you didn't read my post which gave more information. That's OK.

A 13 year old would think twice before attacking a stranger who was a full grown man. Obviously your friend lacks a sense of judgment. Like I said very early on in this thread - she has issues that need to be addressed. I bet she's done this before - physically attacking men - and they probably brushed it off and she thought this guy would do the same. I bet the only lesson she learned is not to attack a stranger and stick to attacking people you know who won't react in kind.

WOW. Now he punched her in the mouth.

Go back and look at the video. He clipped her on the left side of her forehead - she puts her left hand up to where he made contact.
