Now the situation has become largely reversed. When taking the DART Blue Line to the VA Hospital, I (a white older guy) find it in my self interest (self preservation?) to be exceedingly deferential even to the most brazen of black youth, much like a reversal of Rosa Parks, giving up my seat to placate them and to avoid a no-win confrontation once south of the Trinity. And I've learned the lesson of NEVER making eye contact with even a passing glance (after the last "whatcha lookin' at old fool" incident). I suppose I could take a Bernard Goetz approach but that would only inflame an already touchy scenario. So like the blacks of an earlier era, I'm now reduced to the 21st century equivalent of doffing my hat, "yes suh", and smiling (but not too much of a smile, that can also be taken as a "diss" nowadays).
That only emboldens them more for next time.
Fortunately, I have a CCW, and live in a state with good self-defense laws. If I did not, I would hope I would move.
I rarely visit NJ or NY (used to when I was naieve about these things).
But I live my life as I always would....no special deference because of someone who may cause me harm. If they choose to go down that road, that is their choice, not mine, but I am not going to placate for the sake of a false peace or a false sense of security. That serves nobody's purpose and only kicks the can down the road.

“Sir” may be part of your handle, but from the content of your posts, you reveal yourself to be quite lacking as a man, in any sense of the word or characterization.
I feel sorry for you.

I emphasize with your words. I too have found myself in similar types of situations more and more recently. To avoid a confrontation I too have done similar to your actions. I carry nearly everywhere I go these days, yet will still do my utmost to avoid a confrontation where I must pull my last line of defense.

If you don’t belong in the women’s room, you deserve an ass whoopin’.
That was no beating, that was just a little scuffle.
Haven’t any of you guys ever been in a real fight?
I have. I didn’t see any blood, so no harm done as far as I am concerned.
The “ladies” (which they are hardly) retained their honor.

Yeah, when you change it from the victim being a tranny to being a potential pedophile you can make any moral judement you want.
Do you have any knowledge that the lady was googling (on a computer?) kids in the bathroom?

“Im a man who protects my women folk... to the end...
You run away?”
If you were a man you would be defending the honor of this assaulted woman. The only people running right now are the few kooks here slandering her. Bye bye.

So if I accidentally walk into a womans bathroom, I should be beaten to death? From the article....."As seen above, in a Facebook posting, Hackett has contended that the woman seen getting beaten in the video was actually a male cross-dresser who got into a confrontation with female patrons when he refused to leave the womens bathroom at the Baltimore eatery."
He didn't accidentally walk into a ladies room.
There's apparently a lot we don't know about the story. Not that it excuses the girls for coming back for more, it may explain their initial reaction.

Put some ice on it crybaby...
I’ve been beaten within an inch of my life growing up in Detroit...
Just because some sissy boy gets a little whoopin’ by the girls, all the sudden it’s a capital crime...
Yeah... right...

You are one sick bastard.
A fight involves 2 people fighting.
Not 2 people actively kicking a person in the head as hard as they can while the person is not fighting back but curled up in a fetal position on the floor.
If that is a fight to you, hand in your Badge as a Man.
You fail. Miserably.

I can see that from the content of your posts. You must have taken some real head shots.

Yes, I agree...
But it was no beating like the kind I’ve suffered...
Men are too wimpy these days and don’t know what a good shiner that swells your eye shut feels like... that is my biggest issue...
I hate the sissy boys who run from bullies...
Maybe Sarah Palin is making headway into the black community when she said “fight like a girl.”
A lot of the men don’t know how a man is supposed to fight anymore...

As seen above, in a Facebook posting
I'll stick to the actual police report thank you, not from the Facebook page of a wanna be gangsta.
It's your right to stick to the wanna be gangsta, but do you know how silly you look doing so?

Yeah, I’ve had several skull fractures, a few dozen stitches, broken knuckles...
To: metmom
Hackett is the scum who laughingly filmed the beating and encouraged the perps to get out before the cops arrive. The POLICE however, have identified the victim as a 22 year old woman and they also confirmed she was taken to hospital.
Nice to see you would back up scum like Hackett and those intentionally inflicting harm on another rather than the truth of the matter... tells me a lot about your scruples.

Wow!
So you admit that this is how fighting should be done? Kicking someone in the head while they are down?
