Which of these is a race? Lazy? Irish? or C***?
Would you accept being yelled at for the time Clarkson did and punched in the mouth?
Being called a "lazy, Irish c***" is worth 119,000 pounds? Walk into any bar in MT and you're likely to be called way worse than that.
I'd fight paying anything, right down to the last penny. Where is freedom of speech when one can be thus encumbered by a run if the mill insult?
He was assaulted. He was punched. Would you accept being punched? It looks like you would.
Of course I wouldn't accept being punched... The proper punishment would be meted out at that very moment- I would have kicked his ass - As any self-respecting Irish man (not to mention *any* man) should rightly understand (I myself am Dutch).
Free speech AND self-defense are not rights to be taken away by the machinations of the courts of men.
If I deserved it.
