It’s one of the biggest unreported stories in America at the moment. It’s gotten so bad, I am sort of surprised when I am talking to someone who isn’t mentally ill in some way, especially if they are young.

The public school indoctrinated kids these days are zombies - they stay up at night worried about climate change and everything they do is related to saving the planet - it's bad. I know two recent H.S. grads who say they are going to college to study so they can work on saving the planet - it's an epidemic.

Thank you for your advice! Another Freeper sent me Freep mail as well expressing the same concern.

I have a weapon I keep at home but that may change. This is a small park in a bucolic little Ohio town. I wasn’t afraid though. He had his small dog with him and I’m guessing he either broke up with his gf or had an issue with an ex wife and decided to dump on the first woman he saw. Lucky me.

Hubby was furious. Son wondered what kind of person speaks to a woman like that. By the way, it was a knee slapper comment about menstruation. So not
threatening. Just weird.

Very thankful for my kind Freepbrothers who still like women and want to protect them!!

It’s deathly important to these people to remain in their protected cocoon, because to be on the outside, is unthinkable. It’s their whole persona. Inside they are smart, compassionate and protected.

They’ll forgo logic and easily accept hatreds to maintain their membership. They grasp any soundbite to spew, no matter how moronic.

NPR is a powerful drug.

Yes ma’am very true.

A person’s behavior usually gives them away. I once saw a dude cussing out a TV because Donald Trump was making a speech. This was i side a hotel breakfast area in front of children.

IMHO, dude was possessed.

Your advice post is the best, right out of the gate! I’ve been blessed with an intimidating gaze that can keep most strangers at bay, and I know when to use it. However, most people and, especially, women don’t have that natural defense, so I feel angry that they’re targeted by these lefty socio/psychopathic bullies - even the strongest Freeper women here!

SILENCE and an unflinching gaze can be very effective for anyone, but it takes discipline and confidence...and maybe a bit of practice.

Corporate greed huh? Nothing more than the lefts attempt to blame someone, ANYONE for bidenflation. After all, corporations didnt “CHANGE” after quid pro joe became prez. They are still just the same as before and we didnt have inflation under Trump.

No mention of what set him off

A previous contributor mentioned that the writer was a political candidate for something.

It is scary to me that some dude at the laundry would recognize someone for their politics, then acost them like this. She should have gotten a picture. I would have asked the person at the front who it was ( they would know ) and file charges.

As long as we never fight back, in an appropriate manner, this just gets worse and worse.

There are a great many contributing factors, but a large percentage of our population is basically mentally ill at this point.

And that's the goal of the tyrant class. Impose a corrupt and false belief system, detached from any truth. With no truth, there is no rationality, and no way to assert one's rights. A person who regurgitates the tyrants' lies has become a plaything of the tyrants.

I'm sure the tyrants joke among themselves how they've made so many people believe so many lies, and challenge each other as to who can drive the most people into living in a false reality.

Had something similar happen when I took my wife to a medical imaging center shortly after the 2016 election. The short version is a guy in the elevator with us just started ranting about the election and how great Hillary was and she should have won. We hadn’t said a word to him and we didn’t have any Trump gear on. He wouldn’t stop and I finally told him Hillary sucked. That really set him off and he got belligerent about how I must be a Trump supporter. We were face to face screaming at each other. Someone separated us and we went our separate ways. No punches were thrown but it was damn close.

A punch in the mouth always works better.

That can involve a lot of paperwork and legal fees. Public shaming is actually a lot of fun.
