She hit him, she got hit back. Exactly what you and I or anyone else should expect. Women and children are off limits, full stop. You're also conflating thuggery with domestic violence. They're different things. I also very much doubt you'd stand by and let anyone do that to your mother irrespective of your stand on domestic violence. You'd be in like Flynn, as would I.

Alph Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Ah I didn't see that she only pushed him away after he was being aggressive. The video I saw was worse than the one in the OP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't actually see the video in the OP. The video I saw wasn't as clear or it was my mates crappy screen I dunno, I've been out on the town and seen what some gentle ladies do. I don't believe you would do well to not defend yourself. Is there a big difference between thuggery and domestic violence? Does it not take a full piece of poo to batter someone who they supposedly want in their lives? Did you ever see the video of the fella being harassed by the teenage girls outside a CoOp? Hitting him, kicking him. Just abusing some every day bloke doing his shop run. He eventually slaps one after taking a good couple of minutes of verbal and physical abuse as the teenagers follow him. That's both a child and a woman. Having 2 daughters and a wife I'm no bully and I'm scared for when my girls are out there. But I'm also well aware that women can take advantage of the chivalrous attitude. As can kids with the "I'm 15 you can't touch me" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh, that makes perfect sense. You're pressing my buttons now so I'm ducking out before I say something I regret.

Crewton Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 No-one said that a man shouldn't be able to defend himself from attack by a woman, absolutely no-one, but just like a man defending himself from another man, the response has to be proportionate. This wasn't. I hope he gets sent down. Comrade 86, GB SPORTS and RoyMac5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh, that makes perfect sense. You're pressing my buttons now so I'm ducking out before I say something I regret. Say whatever you like. I didn't compare Fodens mum to anything. I actually said I'd not seen the video properly and didn't realise she pushed him I simply have a problem with the "man shouldn't hit woman" type poo. Or "real men don't hit women". Context is everything and you don't get to just say "women and kids are off limits" I gave a video you could probably find on YT as an example of why context matters and this chivalrous attitude is total bs. There's one in Derby of a woman punching a doorman it must be 10 times she keeps coming back. Kicking him. Then he shoves her head and she goes over and then he gets the "you can't touch her!!!" attack. As I said, happily married with wife and 2 daughters. Never touched my wife and never even tapped my daughters on the bum cheek. So I'm far from a bully. In fact my last taste of trouble was stopping some youths harassing some down syndrome bloke outside McDonalds. As I said before you said I justified the hitting of Foden's mum, I thought she hit him first as I'd not seen the video clearly as in the OP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And 86 said women and children are off limits. But there are situations that change that surely? It's not as simple as real men don't hit women retort.

uttoxram75 Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 If the "big" man who threw a forceful punch at a woman was one of the group who were harassing Foden in the first place then he is a w anchor of the highest magnitude and deserves prison time. Doesn't make one iota of difference that she shoved him, if he was harassing her and her son, then he's in the wrong, to then punch her is disgusting behaviour. Hope he gets a bit back one day.

I do agree. I should have watched the OP video before commenting. I thought it was the same video I'd already seen.

Well I don't know Alpha but I once criticised a lady for her bad driving when she nearly ran me over and she hit me. I didn't hit her back.

Bald Eagle's Barmy Army Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 If somebody did that to my mum they’d need a fire extinguisher to put the ducker out. Disgusting behaviour and I’m sure at some point, the thug will get his comeuppance just because of the family he’s picked on.

If it was a mouthful of expletives then can understand the reaction. Not saying it was by the way and not trying to cast aspersions. If it wasn't then that's assault. Simple as.

I understand his viewpoint but this particular Boden thing was caused by a few dheads who went after a young England footballer who was attending a boxing match. I've met Alpha and he is a sound bloke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
