See the Doctrine of Fighting Words ignorance of the law is no defense. If someone calls you the N word yes you can take them apart. Pass it on you might save someone brain damage.
Agreed.
However, I'm not hearing the n-word said anywhere.
Gotta wonder what was going through his head to think he could get away with that
I totally don't support such behavior. I condemn it! He made a mistake in judgement. Don't talk stuff if you are not ready to back it up....nobody in the crowd has his back either.
You can live with this theory that nobody can say it or everybody be should be able to say it, and not just blacks. It's risky business and what is the stupid reward you get for it? Risk vs reward. Basic calculation.

Statist drivel.
Sticks and stones overrides the fictional parchment.
Are you even familiar with that case? It's authoritarian porn. Chaplinsky got wronged.
The racist people I know are now saying the cop who murdered George Floyd was paid to do that to start a race war. They really can't change their narrative no matter what.
I'm willing to bet there was a lot more racism in the car the guy got out of.
And I'm willing to bet the guy who hit him is racist as hell.
And I know for a fact that white guy is really dumb. Where did this happen?
Could be anywhere in America. The racist will be a little subtle next time, not using the N word while abusing a car full of black people. In the long run a valuable lesson.

Texas v. Johnson (1989)
In Texas v. Johnson, 491 U.S. 397 (1989), the Supreme Court redefined the scope of the fighting words doctrine to mean words that are "a direct personal insult or an invitation to exchange fisticuffs." In the case, the Court held that the burning of a United States flag, which was considered symbolic speech, did not constitute fighting words.`
Whatever happened to being able to let it roll off, like water off a duck's back, as my mom used to say? There is no name that a total stranger could ever call me that would make me assault that person. The exception might be if it was someone who had done me real dirt, and even then, I'll take a lot of dirt from someone before I'd ever consider an assault. What in the hell is wrong with a man who cannot rise above an insult, and as a result will end up in jail, ruining his own life? Just a mind-boggling level of self-destructiveness.
I hope he enjoys his new relationship with Bubba the cellmate.
Nope, I am biracial(white and asian). I am also a cop.
If I get a dime for every KO against someone who uses racial slur against asian cop, I would have at least a hundred dollars right now. So far I haven’t earned a dime.

Nope. I'm not either.
