No this is some terrible logic. Violence begets violence. Battering a person who is spewing racist garbage doesn't solve the problem
dedpaen
I’m Asian, and violence is not the answer. He’s obviously mentally ill. But this abusive, hate-filled rhetoric is what we endure daily.

Chocking public displays of hatred up to mental illness without evidence is discrimination against those suffering mental illness. Stop it.

TremendousDude5
Sometimes, and only sometimes, it is the answer (unfortunately).
But who decides when it's bad enough to justify violence? What if people can't agree on that threshold?
SchlappaDaBass
By that logic then we shouldn't have any justice system at all since not everyone can agree on it.
LMAO No my point is that VIGILANTE justice is not the answer. We have a justice system to AVOID shit like this.
Ah got it, I still disagree (a moral action is just regardless if it's sanctioned by a group of people), but I see your point.
People should fear the consequences of hatful speech. Otherwise they become the inspiration of others.
googleknowsmysecrets
as a friend of a schizophrenic, rational fear will not stop him. Hate-filled ppl sure, but not those clinically ill
He's not schizophrenic. He's telling a group of Asians crossing the street to go back to China. Schizophrenia doesn't make you racist.
for sure, i agree. But, my friend placed blame on his incarceration on Obama (since he was Pres at the time)
You can not be tolerant to intolerance without violence. The idea isn't to just punch someone with whom you disagree with
When you tolerate hateful speech, it quickly becomes the loudest voice.
Okay walk me through your slippery slope argument because I don't buy it. Prove to me what you claim is true.
Germany 1930's
I'm eager to learn how violence plays an integral role. Because allowing for hate speech does not mean you never speak out against it
I'm Asian and sometimes violence is the answer, respectfully.
Okay but how do you determine how bad the behavior has to be before violence is warranted? What if people don't agree on that?
Complete agreement, or even agreement in general isn't a prerequisite for moral action. See Black Civil Rights in the 50s.
What if he was shouting anti-gay slurs? Some people would still beat him up, plenty wouldn't care b/c they also don't support LGBT rights.
My point is that it's a slippery slope. Racism is easy to agree on, what about people who bomb abortion clinics? They think they're right.
It doesn't matter if they "think they're right", they're causing undue suffering which is quantifiable and objectively wrong. Moreover 1/2
Anti-Asian hate is 100% wrong, but this is assault & battery, & the person doing actual violence would be arrested. Let the cops handle it.
Kostkami
You are right. Black racist+us Asian cop would be an awesome thing to watch.

bolobass
It was a slap
I get the downvotes, I do, but freedom of speech also includes the freedom to say stupid shit & we get to yell at the idiots & tell them >
Freedom of speech protects you from the government sanctioning you for your speech. It isn't a magic cloak that protects you from being hit
Freedom of speech is not freedom from repercussions. Fight racism wherever it tries to take root before it spreads and takes over.
Sure but can private citizens use violence as a means to control racist rhetoric? I just don't think that defense would fly in court.
I agree-That’s why I said we can beat hate speech with MORE speech. Sucker punching a person may feel good in the moment but solve anything.
*doesn’t solve anything long term.
People do not listen while they are talking.
Cutmesomeslack1939
You must be a freshman in college. Noone gives any fucks what you say or try to reason. Fight hate with fists or they will hit u first

While this is satisfying to watch, hate cannot drive out hate.
I don't recall the US dropping love potion on Nazi Germany or Japan, but maybe my recollection is wrong
destinoz
Violence can not destroy hateful thoughts and ideas, but it certainly can drive out individuals expressing them.

Kicking his ass isn't hate, it's social correction. We should all do this when faced with this bile in our society.
raptorlight3000
Social correction = vigilante justice. Whilst understandable, this response could be used against others for saying anything really
sfbiker
I'm not prone to violence and wouldn't react that way, but man, it sure is satisfying seeing hate speech being literally beaten down.
That's easy to say when it's very cut/dry like this but who draws the line between when it's acceptable to assault someone for their words?
What if it's hate speech against religion or sexuality? What if some people think it's okay to punch racists but not homophobes?
raysons
I soo much agree.
HiHowAreYou92
Obviously he deserves it but the issue is if you blur that line how do you know when its no longer the right course of action.
ATribeofAfricanNatives
Better fucking believe it can. Source: WW2
We've hated nazi's for a long time and are they still around? Our history is full of examples of how wrong that idealism is.
Should we have just given Hitler a pat on the back and signed him up for family therapy sessions? How about the other participants happily
Murdering innocent people?
Idealism is that if we're just tolerant they will somehow be benign, history shows again and again that tolerance only empowers the evil
It's really sad that you think this is the alternative. I wouldn't call fighting tyranny "hatred". That is necessary. My thinking is that
hate begets hate. It will never cure it. Only by coming together as a people, educating better, and raising people out of poverty will we
It's really easy to regurgitate a bunch of platitudes but reality is that there are objectively bad people and feeling pity on them isn't go
You're right, maybe if we loved them instead they would've just stopped murdering Jews on a scale. You dumbass.
It's not about love you boorish ass, it's about education & a social network that intervenes/rehabilitates people who suffer from hatred.
The vast majority of these "racists" are mentally ill or they learn it from their families. We could easily nip it in the bud but we're lazy
Don't disrespect people with actual mental illness with people who are just hateful. Racism is real, don't put that shit in quotes.
certainlynotaserialkiller
Yes it can. It was the core of at least 1 world war
What you said is so incredibly stupid. Did you forget there was a 2nd world war based on hate not even two decades afterward?
Angrymechanic
Pretty sure the second one was the one theyre referring to there chief
I think my dyslexia got the better of me there. Processed it as 'world war 1' somehow.
You know, I could see how that would easily happen
I feel like we shouldn't be seeking to replicate those in our day to day life.
We should seek to prevent them. Love begets love, hate begets hate. Slap a racist near YOU today!
Violence will just make a madman more angry. They need intervention. Too bad our social work in the states is abysmal.
Ah, now I get that you've not dealt with the WWII aftermath
TuckerCarlsonWarnedYouTheredBeGirlsLikeMe
I think it didn't work tho. Pretty sure the nazis are still around.
ballsoutflyer
They keep trying to come back, we will keep knocking them back. There will always be men like them, and there will always be men like us.
Significantly fewer Nazis around now though, I would say.
not fewer enough sadly
Cole2999
I would argue it's a cyclical relationship. And as much as I'm a peaceful guy, you cannot fight hate with kindness. In fact hate needs

TheDoctormoriarty
But don't two negatives make a positive
Well, that IS Chinatown, so the rules of mathematics probably apply....
CaptainDashQuinlan
Unless one is a double negative.
What is crime fighting then?
Defending the peace. Not sure how your perspective can be so out of whack that you qualify that as hatred.
You said two negatives don't make a positive. 1-crime. 2-fighting.
It's not hate. He's just shutting up a racist. You can't stop people from being racist, but you can frighten them into shutting the fuck up.
It's crazy how you people have such dark & bygone idealisms. These people need intervention but you flock to violence because it's easier.
It's not a solution to a problem, just a pitiful angry reaction. If you don't want racists, create & fund an education system that doesn't
allow idiots like this guy to slip thru the cracks without receiving any care for their obvious mental illness.
so what happens when verbal intervention doesn't work?
The world would be a better place if right before someone is about to say something racist they thought "am I about to get punched?" sorry
This is exactly the simple mindedness that keeps us from progressing to anything better. We have no vision. It's depressing.
Or we create a society that is educated enough to not have racism even be an issue because we realize we're basically all the same.
You're acting high and mighty, as if I haven't explored those ideas myself. Like you're talking to the mindless. YOU, mr. discourse will not

Is this when he was hit by a milkshake that he claims had concrete in it? Or when he claimed to have a brain hemorrhage but was fine the
very next day? https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-features/andy-ngo-right-wing-troll-antifa-877914/

Telling people in a Chinese American community to "go back to china" apparently. Well deserved sucker punch.
Honest question, if he has autism, Tourette’s or an intellectual disability, would you still agree that a sucker punch was well deserved?
sippus
I don't think he's going to answer you...
It's an irrelevant question. The man in the video isn't racist because of autism or Tourette's.
Aaronb1138
Yes.
DaveTBull
Tourettes ignoring everything that clearly shows it isnt, no, autism, sure, even autistic people have a moral sense of right and wrong
Oh and...little known secret, enyone can be a racist peice of shit, even the disabled
Morality can be perceived differently by people on the spectrum especially those with severe cases.
DeathLemons
Equal rights, and lefts.
Do you even know what autism or Tourette's looks like? He is obviously neither.
I do & as a result feel it’s impossible for me to say definitively, from the video alone, that it is obvious he doesn’t suffer from anything
If he does, it doesn't explain his behavior.
ThrownClub
You should work for Fox News
Do you feel they would ask questions about a white guy beating a black guy without context?
He's asking for more information. It's basically the exact opposite of Fox News.

Ya, violence wasn't the right answer but... I can't be buggered to complain about it.
of people who are fueling the fire of those who are beating and even executing people out of racism. So he had it coming imo. (2/2)
Would you have the same opinion if you found out he had Tourette’s, autism, or an intellectual disability?
Neither TS nor autism would generally result in acting like that casually. But I do say that he almost certainly has some sort of (1/?)
intellectual disability to do stupid shit like that, except that he's choosing to be intellectually deficient and racist. (2/2)
Algebraicrhombus
Apparently this dude is autistic, and sometimes has little control over what he's yelling about. I've seen this elsewhere, very sad.
SeanBeanJovi
Someone on that reddit thread says they live nearby & that dude's been doing this for weeks, intimidating everyone walking by.
Longer than a few weeks. I'm not saying this is OK, and he's probably going to end up getting it worse than the video shows.
If it's true he's autistic, I hope he gets the help he needs before that happens. It's just not an excuse to threaten others.
He absolutely has control over the content and his thoughts.
Are you basing your opinion on more information than the video provides? I ask because I’m unsure how you could be so certain otherwise.
I agree, but I still think the punch is fine. Hes been at it for a while and the attack was somewhat measured.
This was posted without sound & with the tags “funny” and “summer games” and the aggressive, violent comments started coming in immediately.

No this is some terrible logic. Violence begets violence. Battering a person who is spewing racist garbage doesn't solve the problem
dedpaen
I’m Asian, and violence is not the answer. He’s obviously mentally ill. But this abusive, hate-filled rhetoric is what we endure daily.
rubypilgrim
I am heartbroken at this, and I don't know what I can do to stand against it. I object to it when I hear it, but these ppl are like on -
rubypilgrim
autopilot, nothing gets in. It's like they've lost their minds and have become human weapons.
Selfawerewolf
Chocking public displays of hatred up to mental illness without evidence is discrimination against those suffering mental illness. Stop it.
BellsTheorem
"Obviously mentally ill"?
Imgerruinedimger
Yeah, who needs a degree in psychology when you can juat watch a 10sec vid on reddit and get all the answers!
hotaru251
sadly some ppl need the physical treatment to learn.
TremendousDude5
Sometimes, and only sometimes, it is the answer (unfortunately).
TimeFoDat
But who decides when it's bad enough to justify violence? What if people can't agree on that threshold?
SchlappaDaBass
By that logic then we shouldn't have any justice system at all since not everyone can agree on it.
TimeFoDat
LMAO No my point is that VIGILANTE justice is not the answer. We have a justice system to AVOID shit like this.
SchlappaDaBass
Ah got it, I still disagree (a moral action is just regardless if it's sanctioned by a group of people), but I see your point.
BellsTheorem
People should fear the consequences of hatful speech. Otherwise they become the inspiration of others.
googleknowsmysecrets
as a friend of a schizophrenic, rational fear will not stop him. Hate-filled ppl sure, but not those clinically ill
BellsTheorem
He's not schizophrenic. He's telling a group of Asians crossing the street to go back to China. Schizophrenia doesn't make you racist.
googleknowsmysecrets
for sure, i agree. But, my friend placed blame on his incarceration on Obama (since he was Pres at the time)
D0ntB3ThatGuy
You can not be tolerant to intolerance without violence. The idea isn't to just punch someone with whom you disagree with
BellsTheorem
When you tolerate hateful speech, it quickly becomes the loudest voice.
D0ntB3ThatGuy
Okay walk me through your slippery slope argument because I don't buy it. Prove to me what you claim is true.
BellsTheorem
Germany 1930's
D0ntB3ThatGuy
I'm eager to learn how violence plays an integral role. Because allowing for hate speech does not mean you never speak out against it
SchlappaDaBass
I'm Asian and sometimes violence is the answer, respectfully.
TimeFoDat
Okay but how do you determine how bad the behavior has to be before violence is warranted? What if people don't agree on that?
SchlappaDaBass
Complete agreement, or even agreement in general isn't a prerequisite for moral action. See Black Civil Rights in the 50s.
TimeFoDat
What if he was shouting anti-gay slurs? Some people would still beat him up, plenty wouldn't care b/c they also don't support LGBT rights.
TimeFoDat
My point is that it's a slippery slope. Racism is easy to agree on, what about people who bomb abortion clinics? They think they're right.
SchlappaDaBass
It doesn't matter if they "think they're right", they're causing undue suffering which is quantifiable and objectively wrong. Moreover 1/2
KiltedinSeattle
Anti-Asian hate is 100% wrong, but this is assault & battery, & the person doing actual violence would be arrested. Let the cops handle it.
Kostkami
You are right. Black racist+us Asian cop would be an awesome thing to watch.
Winterous
Yeah good luck trying to reason with the psychopaths on this site. They froth at the mouth at the mere thought of hurting racists.

Yes, let the cops assault him. Maybe even shoot him! Much better and preferable. /s

I get the downvotes, I do, but freedom of speech also includes the freedom to say stupid shit & we get to yell at the idiots & tell them >
n0n53n53
Freedom of speech protects you from the government sanctioning you for your speech. It isn't a magic cloak that protects you from being hit
bolobass
Freedom of speech is not freedom from repercussions. Fight racism wherever it tries to take root before it spreads and takes over.
TimeFoDat
Sure but can private citizens use violence as a means to control racist rhetoric? I just don't think that defense would fly in court.
KiltedinSeattle
I agree-That’s why I said we can beat hate speech with MORE speech. Sucker punching a person may feel good in the moment but solve anything.

While this is satisfying to watch, hate cannot drive out hate.

Violence can not destroy hateful thoughts and ideas, but it certainly can drive out individuals expressing them.

What hate? Knocking out a racist is the most loving thing you can do for society
jostnick
Can't drive it out, but it'll knock it the fuck off it's bicycle

Hate of one kind can be driven out by love of another. I love my fellow humans so much I WILL fight for them. Don't falsely equivocate.
Alecchi
At least he'll understand there's consequences. And he'll think about it twice next time. Maybe look over his shoulder too
TomVoxe
Kicking his ass isn't hate, it's social correction. We should all do this when faced with this bile in our society.
raptorlight3000
Social correction = vigilante justice. Whilst understandable, this response could be used against others for saying anything really
sfbiker
I'm not prone to violence and wouldn't react that way, but man, it sure is satisfying seeing hate speech being literally beaten down.
TimeFoDat
That's easy to say when it's very cut/dry like this but who draws the line between when it's acceptable to assault someone for their words?
TimeFoDat
What if it's hate speech against religion or sexuality? What if some people think it's okay to punch racists but not homophobes?
raysons
I soo much agree.

Obviously he deserves it but the issue is if you blur that line how do you know when its no longer the right course of action.

Should we have just given Hitler a pat on the back and signed him up for family therapy sessions? How about the other participants happily

Idealism is that if we're just tolerant they will somehow be benign, history shows again and again that tolerance only empowers the evil

It's really sad that you think this is the alternative. I wouldn't call fighting tyranny "hatred". That is necessary. My thinking is that

hate begets hate. It will never cure it. Only by coming together as a people, educating better, and raising people out of poverty will we
ATribeofAfricanNatives
It's really easy to regurgitate a bunch of platitudes but reality is that there are objectively bad people and feeling pity on them isn't go
SchlappaDaBass
You're right, maybe if we loved them instead they would've just stopped murdering Jews on a scale. You dumbass.
ItSeemsYouHaveSufferedaTerribleFate
It's not about love you boorish ass, it's about education & a social network that intervenes/rehabilitates people who suffer from hatred.
ItSeemsYouHaveSufferedaTerribleFate
The vast majority of these "racists" are mentally ill or they learn it from their families. We could easily nip it in the bud but we're lazy
SchlappaDaBass
Don't disrespect people with actual mental illness with people who are just hateful. Racism is real, don't put that shit in quotes.
certainlynotaserialkiller
Yes it can. It was the core of at least 1 world war
ItSeemsYouHaveSufferedaTerribleFate
What you said is so incredibly stupid. Did you forget there was a 2nd world war based on hate not even two decades afterward?
Angrymechanic
Pretty sure the second one was the one theyre referring to there chief

I think my dyslexia got the better of me there. Processed it as 'world war 1' somehow.

What is crime fighting then?
ItSeemsYouHaveSufferedaTerribleFate
Defending the peace. Not sure how your perspective can be so out of whack that you qualify that as hatred.
bolobass
You said two negatives don't make a positive. 1-crime. 2-fighting.
OuroborosX
It's not hate. He's just shutting up a racist. You can't stop people from being racist, but you can frighten them into shutting the fuck up.
ItSeemsYouHaveSufferedaTerribleFate
It's crazy how you people have such dark & bygone idealisms. These people need intervention but you flock to violence because it's easier.
ItSeemsYouHaveSufferedaTerribleFate
It's not a solution to a problem, just a pitiful angry reaction. If you don't want racists, create & fund an education system that doesn't
ItSeemsYouHaveSufferedaTerribleFate
allow idiots like this guy to slip thru the cracks without receiving any care for their obvious mental illness.
ballsoutflyer
so what happens when verbal intervention doesn't work?
OuroborosX
The world would be a better place if right before someone is about to say something racist they thought "am I about to get punched?" sorry
ItSeemsYouHaveSufferedaTerribleFate
This is exactly the simple mindedness that keeps us from progressing to anything better. We have no vision. It's depressing.
ItSeemsYouHaveSufferedaTerribleFate
Or we create a society that is educated enough to not have racism even be an issue because we realize we're basically all the same.

Honest question, if he has autism, Tourette’s or an intellectual disability, would you still agree that a sucker punch was well deserved?

I don't think he's going to answer you...

It's an irrelevant question. The man in the video isn't racist because of autism or Tourette's.
Aaronb1138
Yes.
DaveTBull
Tourettes ignoring everything that clearly shows it isnt, no, autism, sure, even autistic people have a moral sense of right and wrong

Oh and...little known secret, enyone can be a racist peice of shit, even the disabled
RogueEnthusiast
Morality can be perceived differently by people on the spectrum especially those with severe cases.

Equal rights, and lefts.
BellsTheorem
Do you even know what autism or Tourette's looks like? He is obviously neither.
RogueEnthusiast
I do & as a result feel it’s impossible for me to say definitively, from the video alone, that it is obvious he doesn’t suffer from anything
BellsTheorem
If he does, it doesn't explain his behavior.

He's asking for more information. It's basically the exact opposite of Fox News.

Jesus dick-riding Christ, this site is getting so toxic. What does this have to do with Fox News?

For hearing a claim without substantive evidence and asking for that evidence?

It was a loaded statement assuming he wasnt in the wrong. The request for context is valid, the editorial at the end is a Fox tactic.

The thing is while I would 100% agree usually that he wasn't a threat to deserve that, at the same time these are literally the kind (1/?)

Hes no different than a white guy going into black neighborhoods and shouting the N-Word. Anyone can be a racist and also get their ass beat

of people who are fueling the fire of those who are beating and even executing people out of racism. So he had it coming imo. (2/2)

Neither TS nor autism would generally result in acting like that casually. But I do say that he almost certainly has some sort of (1/?)

intellectual disability to do stupid shit like that, except that he's choosing to be intellectually deficient and racist. (2/2)

Apparently this dude is autistic, and sometimes has little control over what he's yelling about. I've seen this elsewhere, very sad.
SeanBeanJovi
Someone on that reddit thread says they live nearby & that dude's been doing this for weeks, intimidating everyone walking by.
Algebraicrhombus
Longer than a few weeks. I'm not saying this is OK, and he's probably going to end up getting it worse than the video shows.
SeanBeanJovi
If it's true he's autistic, I hope he gets the help he needs before that happens. It's just not an excuse to threaten others.
Aaronb1138
He absolutely has control over the content and his thoughts.
RogueEnthusiast
Are you basing your opinion on more information than the video provides? I ask because I’m unsure how you could be so certain otherwise.
Sophiasmistake
I agree, but I still think the punch is fine. Hes been at it for a while and the attack was somewhat measured.

This was posted without sound & with the tags “funny” and “summer games” and the aggressive, violent comments started coming in immediately.
