I despise loudmouths.

I despise drunks.

I despise the combination of the two even more.

While I don’t think the guy deserves being on a respirator with possible brain damage for his ignorance, I also don’t believe that was the intent of the person who hit him.

I originally commented that “the guy got what he deserved”, I will amend that to say that both words and actions have consequences and being a loudmouth drunk can result in being punched. My understanding was that the punch was the end result of the last comment the drunk made, but that there were more comments before.

I can see someone being fed up to the point of action after listening to long rant, and just taking a swing. Is it the legal thing to do...No, is it the right thing to do...Probably not. But I go back to my previous statement, words and actions have consequences. If the guy had kept his mouth shut this wouldn’t have happened, if the other guy had walked away, this wouldn’t have happened. As it is, the guy mouthed off and got a deserved punch, the guy that did the punching got a deserved arrest.

I think that sums it up...I’m though!

If you rape a woman and she dies (or a heart attack,let's say) because of the fear and fright she was experiencing then you're up for murder *and* rape.When you strike someone you must accept the possibility that things won't go the way you expected.If you shoot someone in the leg,planning to send him a message and nothing more,you're up for murder one if that bullet happens to hit an artery and the ambulance is delayed because of traffic.

We have a local one that NOBODY likes to be around.

Not only is he a loudmouth drunk, he's retired GM UAW and a hardcore democrat who hates everyboy who is not.

I shouldn’t say anything. I hurt a black dude real bad once who made a comment to my girlfriend with me sitting right there. The thing us that it happened in a predomintely black side of town and I guess I hurt him so bad everyone else standing around just froze.
