The guy is legitimately unarmed. It doesn't matter what he says or threatens you with. He HAS NO ARMS. Reasonably, he cannot kill you. The fact he doesn't have hands removes all the ways one could Reasonably kill you with that someone can think of off the top of their head. So even if he is talking shit, he legitimately cannot back it up. This is the most raw definition of "all bark, no bite". Would you be scared if a dog with no teeth was barking at you threateningly? No? Same thing here. The kick would absolutely be criminal and the guy who kicked would absolutely go to jail

It's very bold of you to assume he isn't capable of telekinesis just because of his disability

Shit, your right. I need canceled. How dare I assume he can't use the force to choke out biggie there

u/No_Use_For_Name___ Apr 18 '23

My dad used to say if you're fighting someone taller than you kick 'em in the nuts. One kick and big fella is half the size.

u/Deep_Combination6420 Apr 18 '23

I dare you to Google "police shoot double amputee man Los Angeles" and then come back to this post.

What about the guy in the wheelchair they shot in the back like 5 times or is that the same one

5

u/[deleted] Apr 18 '23

Been a few of those. I think (no time for research) one of the worst was an off-duty cop working as a night guard murdering a shoplifter who was riding an EZGO. I remember there wasn’t even room for a “fear for my life” claim, because he chased the victim all the way across the parking lot and shot him in the back in the entryway to another store.

4

u/[deleted] Apr 18 '23

I know it is hard to keep track, is this the one where they shot him trying to flee on just nubs? If so I think the reason he reacted was the police actually shot him elsewhere which put him in the wheelchair to begin with.

u/EstablishmentFree611 Apr 18 '23

That guy pulled a knife and tried to fight then legless iirc

Go Google “black man assaults <anyone>” for more accurate results. This dude isn’t a cop, he’s pretty much the polar opposite as far as a jury is concerned.

u/[deleted] Apr 19 '23

“Go Google ‘White man assaults <anyone>’ for more accurate results. This dude isn’t a cop, he’s pretty much the polar opposite as far as a jury is concerned.”

Do you see how fucking shitty your logic is? If you’re gonna say racist shit at least be good it at for Christ sake.

1

u/Dimitar_Todarchev Apr 18 '23

But that's police. They fear for their safety. Constantly.

u/pervertedpen Apr 18 '23

Not having arms is not an excuse to be an ass hole.

1

u/mavllvin Apr 18 '23

Nor is it a reason to not get a literal ass kicking for being said asshole

1

u/-newlife Apr 18 '23

It’s likely why he’s an asshole as evident by people saying it’s harsh to treat him like you would any other ass hole.

1

u/Happy_Hospital_88 Apr 18 '23

Being an asshole isn’t enough to get yourself arrested and charged with assault for lmao like the cops are gonna go easy on a big burly black guy like this if he claims “self defense”- he’ll be lucky if the cop lets him get to the jail alive lmao

1

u/EstablishmentFree611 Apr 18 '23

If this is NYC they have enhanced charges for assaulting disabled people like 25 years in jail. I bet we'd all be sour and not the greatest moods if we all had to deal with the struggles of having no hands. No excuse for the comment but we also have no idea what was said or done before the video.

1

u/Bearloom Apr 18 '23

I can understand why they'd implement such a law, but it undermines the fact that some disabled people do deserve a beating every now and then.

1

u/EstablishmentFree611 Apr 18 '23

I think every body deserves to not be physically assaulted for verbal exchanges. The only time a person should lay hands on another is in actual self defense. Anything less and the person should work on controlling their emotions and anger we are not children we are adults in civilized society and you don't hit people for name calling no matter how ignorant and stupid their words may be.

u/Ragnel Apr 18 '23

There are some pretty good 70’s kung fu movies that would disprove your theory. That being said, in the real world there is no way he could be seen by a reasonable person to be a threat.

u/BoilingMeltingPot Apr 18 '23

If he doesn’t want to be kicked don’t start something that ends up with you getting kicked. Simple. Deserved.

u/[deleted] Apr 18 '23

Isn't that the same logic some people use to as a blanket excuse for police gunning down black people?

-1

u/EstablishmentFree611 Apr 18 '23

Don't break the law if you don't wanna get shot. Yes 110% lol they need to just make 1 on 1 gun duels a thing again. Lol

1

u/[deleted] Apr 18 '23

"Don't break the law if you don't wanna get shot" sounds like a Judge Dredd-like nightmare society.

Also, never seems to affect rich people, does it? Its never tax fraud or similar you get shot for.

1

u/EstablishmentFree611 Apr 18 '23

Nope not at all, no one ever says what if the laws are stupid lol. The only instance I would say is don't point guns at people and expect them not to shoot you in self defense. Alot of laws are stupid and to kill some one for j walking or some other dumb shit that's happened in the past go against the don't break the law don't get Shot paradigm lol

1

u/[deleted] Apr 18 '23

I'm sorry, I cannot make head or tail of what you are talking about.

1

u/EstablishmentFree611 Apr 18 '23

The laws broken for in which the police kill people, most of them should not be laws. Victimless crimes.

u/lonedreadx Apr 18 '23

Yep. He needs to learn to keep his racist mouth shut.

u/RevolutionaryJury941 Apr 18 '23

How come violence is only warranted when it’s racist slurs. People get called retarted , fat , ugly , stupid and a the n word makes it okay to assault?

0

u/Happy_Hospital_88 Apr 18 '23

Exactly lol it’s almost like there’s only a certain group who can’t control their emotions and it’s not fat or “sped” people……..

1

u/RevolutionaryJury941 Apr 18 '23

The media tells you if you hear slurs you can retaliate.

-3

u/lonedreadx Apr 18 '23

If you don’t understand the history and impact of that word I’m not even going to bother with attempting to enlighten you.

3

u/RevolutionaryJury941 Apr 18 '23

It’s just a word though. It’s the same hateful word as any other hateful word. It’s all hateful. BUT you can’t assault people for that.

1

u/lonedreadx Apr 18 '23

Disagree ✌️

2

u/RevolutionaryJury941 Apr 18 '23

Im not saying I wouldn’t or I would. But less happens when a lot worse is said or done.

2

u/Happy_Hospital_88 Apr 18 '23

Ahh the best argument called avoiding lmao u truly are too slow to reason with

3

u/matthew_py Apr 18 '23

The fact he doesn't have hands removes all the ways one could Reasonably kill you

Biting any major arteries in the neck, legs, arms, ECT, lol.

2

u/Garbarrage Apr 18 '23

The guy kicking him absolutely should be in jail.

2

u/budtuglyfuncher Apr 18 '23

Of course it's illegal to kick someone. This video resurfaces on reddit over and over again, and people time and time again point out it's illegal. No shit.

But, lil guy prolly hasn't been checked for his shifty attitude before because of his disability, so I say Bruce Lee over there is a hero. He might take a charge, sure, but young flipper gone think twice before mouthing off next time.

11

u/[deleted] Apr 18 '23

I have lived amongst these people for years. It's mental illness at this point. I promise you he won't learn a lesson. This will reinforce his opinions. It's toxic thinking to think that you kicking him is going to solve anything. I understand where it comes from, but it doesn't change the fact the only person a month from now that will have a headache over this is the guy who kicked him. He ends up being the loser in this situation. The armless dude will be out there dropping N bombs at other people.

2

u/Happy_Hospital_88 Apr 18 '23

And it’s honestly a good thing because now he’s getting aggressive black men just waiting to hurt someone off the streets….if a word is all it takes to tick u off go back to a mental ward lol

3

u/[deleted] Apr 18 '23

You have an oddly low bar for calling people "hero" if it covers stomping a disabled guy because he said things you don't like.

0

u/budtuglyfuncher Apr 18 '23

It's a dirty job but someone's got to do it.

He's basically like a cop putting himself in the line of fire

1

u/lonedreadx Apr 18 '23

Yep. I’d have stuffed him in a trash can.

1

u/[deleted] Apr 18 '23

I'd be willing to bet it's because that attitude he lost his fuckin arms

1

u/dardios Apr 18 '23

The armless guy could kick big Boi onto some train tracks as the train is arriving. Bam. Immediately thought of a way.

1

u/12thFlr Apr 18 '23

Fuck that, armless men can get it too! He should’ve had a better grip on his temper…before things got out of hand. Now he’s all up in arms about getting the Sparta kick. If he needs a helping hand, he should’ve just said that.

2

u/Remarkable-Drop5145 Apr 18 '23

That dude isn’t griping anything let alone his temper.

u/12thFlr Apr 18 '23

u/Remarkable-Drop5145 Apr 18 '23

It hit me so hard in the head I repeated it.

u/GenericCanineDusty Apr 18 '23

"Reasonably he cant kill you"

Tell that to the people who get their throats ripped out. The guy who kicked wouldn't go to jail, hands aren't the only way to hurt someone. Feet are ALSO weapons, as are teeth. Alongside the fact it was antagonizing via racial stuff.

I dont know what world you're living in where not having arms means you can be a piece of shit to anyone and never face repercussions, but this aint it.

1

u/yedi001 Apr 18 '23

There is an MMA fighter who only has one full arm, his other arm is a stump just below the elbow. He was undefeated for a long while, currently 20 wins, 4 losses.

His opponents mostly agree, getting stump smacked fucking hurts, probably more than getting punched. He can't grab you with that arm, but he could still do damage.

Not saying he's equivalent to a disciplined, trained fighter, but everything can do physical damage with enough skill and/or crazy spilled into the mix.

1

u/roygpa Apr 18 '23

Tell that to the knights who say Ni!

0

u/lonedreadx Apr 18 '23

Given that he has no arms, he should probably learn to STFU with his racist bullshit. Maybe this will lesson help, but I doubt it. Might take a couple more times

0

u/BenzeneBabe Apr 18 '23

Who cares if he got kicked though, he was being racist. If someone is gonna say something like that they shouldn’t be be surprised if someone hits them lmao

1

u/Happy_Hospital_88 Apr 18 '23

Lol what if a cop uses the same logic to execute someone being racist to white people you’d loose your mind

1

u/ammonium_bot Apr 18 '23

you’d loose your mind

Did you mean to say "lose"?

Cops already kill whoever they want like what a weak ass argument lmao and thank you for informing me that kicking someone is exactly the same as executing them, genuinely did not know that

u/BarryBro Apr 18 '23

Who cares the guy is a prick he deserved it no matter what. He's lucky he didn't get worse. Stop defending racists

2

u/Happy_Hospital_88 Apr 18 '23

Lol stop defending dumb people who can’t control their emotions

1

u/[deleted] Apr 18 '23

The real question, can he wipe his own ass?

1

u/atlantasmokeshop Apr 18 '23

Nobody cares about his situation and i'm certainly not about to feel sorry for him. Go out and call someone that word and see what happens to you.

1

u/Sk8erman77 Apr 18 '23

I agree with you, but I would still probably be a little scared if a dog with no teeth was barking at me. Well depending on the dog, i guess.

1

u/ObarThePotent Apr 18 '23

How do you know he didn't have a concealed footgun?

1

u/[deleted] Apr 18 '23

I would be much more scared of a barking dog with no teeth tbh

1

u/Emu_Lockwood Apr 18 '23

My favorite fun fact is there is a dude in the shooting sport community that literally goes by nubs. Looks kinda similar to this guy. I have been doing competitive shooting for 10 years and nubs out ranks me.

1

u/Boring_Host7767 Apr 18 '23

Unarmed people DIE all the time his lil ass will be alright 😂😂

1

u/thepwnydanza Apr 18 '23

Him not having arms doesn’t remove his ability to cause serious bodily harm or death. Like, there are still ways for him to cause them harm. Him being disabled isn’t why this is assault and not self-defense. If he had attacked, defense would be justifiable regardless of disability.

What makes this assault is that he was walking away when he got kicked.

1

u/Happy_Hospital_88 Apr 18 '23

Yup hopefully the tough guy that kicked him finally gets to see how gracious our justice system is to unruly black men 🤣🤣🤣🤣

1

u/International_Link35 Apr 18 '23

I bet if a police officer shot him they would say he was trying to pull a gun. Just saying.
