You must be in college still obsessed with being viewed as an alpha male. If you have a real job and even think about fighting you are pretty trashy. No sane professional would risk their career over a lunatic yelling at you. Assault & battery isn't an easy thing to explain to your boss and future job interviews

So its trashy to want to hit someone that violates your personal space and yells at you in an aggressive manner? smh.

About three years ago, there i was sitting in the cheap seats in JH when is saw a young boy spill his drink on the man in front of him. This man, who appeared to be in his 40s, was drunk and did not like having a soft drink spill on him. He angrily yelled at the boy and then laid into the father for not watching his son. The father apologized for his son's actions, yet the drunkard continued his barrage of insults. Finally the drunk man got in the face of the father...the father then grabbed the man by the throat and slammed him down on the steps, pinned him to the ground and threatened to beat him if he did not stop antagonizing the boy and himself.

The drunk man, clearly embarrassed for getting slammed, apologized and pretended to be best friends with the father. About two minutes later, the cops show up to investigate what had happened....The cops escorted the drunk man away and the father remained, unpunished for his actions.

Now tell me, should that man have not acted and taken the abuse? Should he have worried about his job or being charged with assault and battery? No. He reacted to someone physically invading his space in a threatening manner.

According to your beliefs, that man had NO RIGHT to lay his hands on him.

And another thing GC. frick you.
