    My beloved cocaine would never do this! Hmm, no, you’re right.

  I’m not a huge fan of brief videos with little context, but it doesn’t look like much context is needed here.

    I’m not defending the guy but he has liquid on his back and you can barely hear him say something which sounds like she threw shit at me.

    If she threw shit at him and hit him with it… I kinda don’t blame him.

    If he said something nasty, racist homophobic or otherwise insulting to her and then she threw something at him, that makes it a bit more questionable on whether or not she deserved to get hit.

    This needs much more context.

    That being said, the dude very likely was being a prick and deserved to have shit thrown at him. Still though, if you assault someone first, don’t expect to not get it back. Male vs female, male vs male, female vs female and all other things in-between, you start shit, there might be repercussions. Make sure you are prepared to handle that.

    Ignoring some bigot (if he started it with words) could have potentially saved her getting her face fucked up.

    I’m sure I’ll get downvoted for that but my point is still 100% valid.

      Your points are all conjecture and I don’t think they are valid. If he said some shit to instigate and she threw something at him that doesn’t give him carte Blanche to break her face.

      Ignoring bigots makes them bolder. And throwing a drink does not excuse a punch.

    How is context not important? We don’t even have a full second of clip before he throws the punch.

    Is context only not important when it’s a man hitting a woman?

    Would you say the same if it was a 2s clip of a woman punching a man?

      What the fuck are you talking about, if she wasn’t attacking him there is no defense.

    Why would you want to give the benefit of doubt to someone that edits out the context?

    Ha, no. Getting fired doesn’t dissolve your equity.
