"Assaulting" is a very broad category that can range from a stiff arm push (where the person being pushed never falls to the ground) to beating someone's face to a pulp. So let's not try to sell the idea that all things that fall under "assault" are equal. Let's leave the Florida handicapped parking shooting incident out of this thread. I think we've beat that one to death.
Sure, Buzz....I agree...no need to get back into the Florida handicapped incident.
But I stand by what I said......that assaulting someone is NOT cool, regardless of how you define assault.
I also stand by my comment that it often leads to things we don't want to see happen, regardless of how one defines assault.
We can debate the finer details of every situation we read or hear about in the news. I mean, I'll be the first one to say every situation is different.
But
assault is assault.
NOT cool and people just need to stop doing that.....and then wonder why bad things follow.
Like I have said here before......just point to the scoreboard.......
