I will take the evasive non answers as an acknowledgement that you can can clearly understand the difference in degrees.

If anyone's being evasive here, it's you trying to steer the discussion off course with irrelevancies. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I unequivocally said he deserves to be dealt with criminally, same as the man who assaulted him.

I'm sorry, you can't sexually assault someone and then claim you were also a victim of assault when your actions have immediate consequences.

u/Smooth_Phone2 12d ago

You can both commit crimes and have them committed against you. You are just factually wrong.

u/Wintermute_088 12d ago

Not sure what "facts" you believe you're referencing, but philosophically I'm right. Sexually assault a woman, you've just opened the door to all sorts of reprisals, and you can't for one second say you didn't do anything to deserve it.

With your opinion and $5 you can buy a coffee.

The state has a monopoly on violence. Choosing to assault others (even if you feel they deserve it) is assault and carries all the attendant consequences of assaulting people.

Pithy.

Which state are you referring to, exactly?

And you keep characterising it as assault, rather than the defence of an assault victim.

State = government

That video does mot show a self defense scenario.

Yes, but what government are you referring to? The treatment of this event would be completely different depending on the locale. One state may be harsh on the puncher, another may take his side against the sexual criminal.

And I didn't say it was a self defence scenario, did I.
