If you carry a sign reading "you deserve to be raped" then you can't complain about being clubbed on the head, because you obviously are a waste of genetic material
I think "you deserve to be hit over the head with a baseball bat" is an understandable response to "you deserve to be raped".
I'd say, it's too mild a response, but anything within the line, I guess.
No one deserves to be hurt. Unfortunately, some people do ask for it.
This guy was absolutely asking for it.
He did deserve it. If you advocate for pointless violence you deserve it back at you.
No, he deserves to be rehabilitated in a facility that can reeducate him from his backwards beliefs.
Unfortunately we are limited by our material conditions, so instead he gets hit with a baseball bat.
Re-education camps are bad things even if you agree with what they're "educating"
You can't apply dogma to someone by forcing it onto them. People have to come to realizations on their own. You can help them to that realization by doing a number of things that are ostensibly agnostic (offering critical thinking courses at the local library, encouraging people to learn how civics actually works, etc..)
But you can't just throw them in a "facility" and say "this is what we want you to believe and you're going to sit there until you do."
You try your best to encourage them to your side. But if they don't want to come, the best you can do is to mitigate the destruction their willful ignorance can do.
This guy was absolutely asking for it.
Literally yes. It seems people are unfamiliar with this type of grift, which was made popular by the Westboro Baptist Church. Show up somewhere and say the most inflammatory (but not directly threatening) things possible until somebody gets fed up and assaults you, then sue that person for damages.
You know, there's a secret trick to not getting sued for assaulting them...
I'd argue quite a number of people deserve to be hurt, and this prick is definitely one of them.
Sucks he didn't die.
Only the good die young I've heard
Checks out.
In France we have Jean-Marie Le Pen. He tortured people and was friends with nazis. He's 96 and still alive.
For any wondering, no, that's not a coincidence. He is Marine Le Pen's father.
Jean-Marie Le Pen
He's 96 and still alive
That's awful!
Counterpoint: Jimmy Carter made it to 100.
True, and Betty White to 99, just a couple weeks plus change from her 100th.
They're very much the EXCEPTION rather than the rule, though..
"Only the good die young" logically implies that good people can live a long time, but bad people will never die young. A counterexample would be someone who was an absolute shitbag and also died young.
I used to think that was just a saying but now that I'm in my 40s, it has generally held true, and it suuuucks.
Your body, my choice to hit it with a baseball bat.
Tabitha Brubaker has been charged felony assault and marijuana possession
Boooo, fuck off with the weed charge on there too
He pressed charges over that? I hurt myself worse at work and walk it off. That guy's a bitch.
There was once a time when "Fighting Words" were a viable defense in cases like these, and that sign certainly qualifies as fighting words.
thems be fightin' words
Grass grows, birds fly, and brother? I BONK people
Hit him again.
I literally said "FUCK YES" out loud when I read this.
I've been playing far too much brawl stars. I heard the "wack" in my head and exhaled air out muh nose. 10/10
I mean, if anyone deserves to be raped it is someone holding a sign threatening rape
Now time to be around him with a sign reading, “You deserve to be hit on the head with a bat.” I’m certain he’d agree.
I think she used the baseball bat incorrectly in this particular situation. Opportunity missed!
NOOOOO, IT SHOULD'VE BEEN ME.
He had it coming. I'd even say he doesn't deserve to be raped, just because it's such a terrible act.
But I'm all for the assault in this situation. As I said, he was asking for it.
Where's the damn video? Aluminum or a Louisville Slugger? Hopefully she's a softball player.
There's a video in this article of the moment, tho you can't see her hit him. He's holding the camera and she walks up behind him and clocks him. From the sound of it, the bat was aluminum
I sure hope her bat didn’t get dented, it can be a real pain to find one that swings just right.
