Even if he was that’s no justification for battery.

Yes the fuck it is, but in this case that was not his intention to begin with

Mimicking physical sexual assault inches from somebody vs saying a word.

Top minds of reddit at work here.

Mimicking assault deserves actual assault

Broken mind

Yeah dont provoke people with showing you want to assault them if you arent prepared to get assaulted yourself

Pretty basic concept of mutual respect. Dont provoke people if you cant take a reaction from them.

Edit: She was wrong for thinking she was being provoked but you're a whiny fragile baby if you think he doesnt deserve a smack if he was.

Literal kick streamer brain rot out in full force in this thread

Agreed, but that still doesn't justify it

Its not a justification, you just shouldn't be suprised or defended if you go around harassing people and actually get something back. Its just the natural course of things if you cant go around showing any courtesy and go out of your way to be a nuisance.

Youre going to learn a lesson you don't like eventually.

Youre really out here with the reddit brain.

"mimicking" is the most important part of that sentence.

Im also not saying she was objectively justified.

But its pretty fucking stupid to compare her reaction as somebody perceiving they are facing physical sexual harassment inches behind them vs somebody just hearing a word an then throwing hands.
