Yes, I wish we could bring duels back into vogue. So many frail egos would be a lot less frail if they could be challenged to a duel where the might die. Perhaps their ego isn't worth the posturing?Yes, I am aware Backfire was joking.
As long as the challenge has to include slapping the person with a rubber club and calling him Reginald, I'm all for it.

As long as you extend that same standard to the next person you label as an 'Antifa!" or "Leftist!" that does something because of "mean words" 👆
What standard? Are you going to pretend because I pointed out the difference in the situations it means I think it's okay to assault someone over words? Pretty please say you're dumb enough to be doing that...

Even JP says it's O.K. to smack someone if they are lippy - paraphrased. I don't disagree.
For sure, someone calls my daughter a whore and that's a call to arms. Happily spend a night in county for that.
Just want the Cult of Trump to use the same standards across the board when "mean words" are had and a "Leftist!" reacts.

So now it's okay to attack someone over mean words? You people really need to make up your minds.But just remember this standard (cos I will) the next time anyone you label as "Antifa!" or "Leftist!" attacks someone over mean words. Cool.
Originally posted by Silent MasterNot at all and it's another thing JP is right on, most men in social situations know where the line is and agree to disagree and even actively avoid politics, religion etc on a night out. One of my best friends has political views I find disgusting, he never talks politics with me and I never talk politics with him, and as long as we do that we stay friends and have managed to for 40 odd years.
If the guy wants to press charges over the wine throwing, go for it.BTW, What happened to. I don't condone what they did, but actions have consequences? or does that only apply to things that happen to people you disagree with.
The internet is NOT real life
Looked up the Supreme Court's stance on personal insults...
In Texas v. Johnson, 491 U.S. 397 (1989), the Supreme Court redefined the scope of the fighting words doctrine to mean words that are "a direct personal insult or an invitation to exchange fisticuffs." In the case, the Court held that the burning of a United States flag, which was considered symbolic speech, did not constitute fighting words.`"
Now looking at that in a relative sense to their ruling on Nazi marches, I think the standard is basically that saying "N*ggers are stupid and dirty" isn't legal justification for someone to hit them, but telling a black person "You're just a stupid, dirty, n*gger" IS justification to hit him

The same standards are being used. I don't think anybody said if the kid gets in legal trouble it's wrong lol. You attempted a "gotcha" by bringing up the milk incident, acting as if I demanded the person involved be arrested when I merely laughed at the situation.
Once again you mislead people...cuz you're a little weasel lol. And now you'll act oblivious to this...like a puppy who just took a dump on the rug and then looks at you as if to say "....what?"
Originally posted by SquallXoh trust me if you said stupid things to me and I warned you I found them offensive but you continued and I beat you up, as long as I didn't use a weapon or go over the top I would not get anything more than a fine or a non custodial sentence at the most.
I call bullshit on that one.
