Man beaten up at Little Caesars after calling woman overweight
San Francisco Chronicle ^ | June 8, 2015 | By Evan Sernoffsky

An angry man roughed up a customer at a Little Caesars Pizza restaurant in Salinas for making a crack about his mom’s weight, police said.

The ruckus started Sunday when a 50-year-old man told a woman “she should not eat pizza because she was already overweight,” police said.

The comment sent the woman into a rage. She went to her car to get a crow bar, but before she could get in any blows, her son punched the man several times in the head.

You have to ask the question if a snide insult is worth your life (not you specifically of course, just conceptually).

That question works all the way around.

I mention this because someone on this thread used your 'handle' to opine that the appropriate response to someone insulting his wife or mother was to kill the the insulter. I respectfully remind that individual that folks who are threatened with death or grave bodily harm frequently KILL (as in stone cold dead) the person posing said threat.

Consider it a word to the wise.

The bible makes a crucial distinction: speak the truth in [God’s] love.

The common mode for fallen mankind is to use facts, which are neutral, to posture as if you are everybody else’s judge and not subject to any other judgment. Now there can only be one true judge, so that is a recipe for strife.

We lie to ourselves about it, and you too (you can’t say who’s this “we” white man).

Therefore, yes a secret.

But there is another extreme, and that is to use it to personally lord it over people. That is how “religion” got to be viewed as a dirty word.

This time.

You might find urban crime reports very interesting to read.

As to which of these individuals acted farther outside the rules of “polite society”, I’d have to say it was the mother and her son. However, all three acted stupidly.

The guy should have gone about this in a more positive way...Instead of saying how you are "too fat" to do something, instead, say that you are "not too fat" to be doing something.

It's like half full vs. half empty.

See how happy everybody can be if we take a more positive approach?

Nazi got what he deserved. You would think he was trying to pull a Wookie. If someone wants to be overweight, that’s their business.

>>Consider it a word to the wise.<<

The deployment of deadly force is always one of great consideration and yes, can have equal and opposite reactions.

The best advice of all: Don’t insult people who you do not know. I is rude, uncalled for, and may have dire consequences.

The guy is probably a jerk ... being a jerk doesn’t justify criminal assault.

He’s been in the ministry for 40 years. He can cite verses that would justify his actions.

So I am calling it as I see it.

Peg was a VERY full-figured beauty.

Peg kept that beauty as Gemma Teller, too. The diversity of those two roles speaks to her excellence as an actress.

Oh he can, please feel free to repeat them for rebuke of usage out of context.

And I am calling the bible as I know its Author to mean.

No pics? Photographer must not have had a wide angle lens in his case.
