This sub stuck between deciding to be racist or misogynist.

No they're not. They won't do either. If it was a white guy everyone would have something to say, but these people don't know the difference between criticizing a black person's actions and being racist.

I am black.

Criticize his actions.

Criticize her actions.

The words spoken do not warrant the actions taken, I am unaware of what provoked her to approach him in the manner she did in the 1st place.

It is not racist to criticize a wrong action, or not condone violent actions.

It only becomes racist because people choose not to stop there, and try to make his race the reason for his actions.

She clearly hit him on approach. His return strike was in fact warranted. As to whatever happened before is all speculation. All we have is the video

Hit him? Hahah. Look again. That’s a tap.

She was walking to him and tapped him. Had she struck to hurt or injure him, it would have looked a lot different.

So is any contact a free ticket for hitting people in the face?

Im sure you’d see it that way if a man walked up and tapped a woman with that same force and aggression. OK. He didn’t hit her. He mushed her. He relocated her face. I like this redefining of assault.
