Probably! Shocking but it appears I am the only poster that is wrong, doesn't bench 350, didn't win a bunch of state titles, doesn't own a super profitable business and doesn't **** like a porn star.

There is always the exception to the rule.
You can google the definition of protest if you want. But are we that stupid as a society that a percentage of people can be led to believe that a man spontaneously driving up to a protest and shouting **** out the window is also a protest? He spent one second planning his protest. No signs made. Just a triggered fat *** who pissed off the wrong Hispanic girl. It's poor behavior and a disgrace.
Protest - a noun - a statement or action expressing disapproval of or objection to something.
No mention of a sign, no mention of a minimum time to plan, simply complain about something in a public way.
Poor behavior would include throwing a water bottle at someone you disagreed with. Would he have been in the right if he had just threw a water bottle at her/they/them/Ella/ellos?
I mean, everything is a protest when you are objecting something. But when a 3 year old says "Nooooo, I am not brushing my teeth" we don't call it a protest, we call it a tantrum.
This guy very well might have been "protesting" and that is great for him but I think 99/100 people would not consider it a protest in the "I am trying to make change in the world" sense.
Either way, both sides look like morons, that much is clear.
How about the parents who say, "Kids these days are soft..." You're the parent. Don't make them soft.
It's not the kids' fault they're being raised by wimpy parents who dont actually want to do the hard stuff or admit their kid can be a turd & needs disciplined.
As a coach, I never let kids get soft!
Err wait…that doesn’t sound good.
You can get a good look at a T-bone by sticking your head up a butcher’s ***…wait no, it’s gotta be your bull.
So if I show up at an organized protest, where the protestors have planned it weeks in advance and have signs, then I get out of my truck and start chanting things that are contrary to their opinion and what they are protesting against, I am not protesting as well?
Equating it to a 3 year old is a whole lot disingenuous. These people were old enough to make a decision to walk out of school, make signs and chant anti-ICE propaganda. So because this guy didn't set out a plan in advance and didn't also have signs he isn't really protesting for change or to keep the status quo? It wouldn't have been a tantrum but a actual protest had he went and found a few friends and drew some pro ICE signs and stood across the street? Or heck even just wrote something on a paper bag he had from the 6 pack he just bought. Then it's a protest. Officially
I mean, you are throwing a tantrum right now for some reason.
Errrr, I mean you are protesting. If that makes you feel better, just call it a protest, who cares? I don't.
The stupid kid was stupid for throwing something at the car. The stupid adult was also stupid for trying to fight a kid.
In the end, what does it matter? You had dorky *** kids doing dorky things and you had some lame *** adult doing a lame *** thing. Why is it hard to just accept that both were lame?
The guy was defending his property. In the state I live in, he could have shot the prick that threw the object at his car. He would have been defending his property. However, he had restraint and got the **** beat out of him.
These kids need to be expelled and thrown in juvie. Young punks need to be taught a HARD lesson.
The fact that the adult ended up getting beat up is sort of the sad and funny part. Like, dude, don't get out of your car if you can't handle yourself.
I just think it is funny that there were qualifications brought to the discussion requiring signs and planning for it to be considered a protest. All protests are stupid in this day and age.
The only thing they accomplish is confirming support or opposition to a cause. Few, if any, minds are changed based on someone standing on a corner or sitting in a road protesting climate change or ICE, if anything, a person's current stance becomes more entrenched.
That's fine then. I would differentiate between a protest and an organized protest. And I'm pretty sure the "protest" that the guy made caused the girl to react as she did. So that would be disorderly conduct or incitement-- something like that. And free speech isn't protected if it's used in a criminal act. So the guy should have kept his mouth shut. Heaven help us as a society if more people acted like he did when they hate a certain group of people and/or don't agree with their message.
"What kids get in public school today is garbage." I'm fascinated on how someone can be that far off in their thinking. Where are you getting this information from?
Dumbest **** in the history of the world.
Well behind canceling sports, roping off playgrounds, masks, and empty arenas.
What happens if a kid gets in a fight on the way home from school?
Cops don't give a single fück. The kid gets in trouble at school.
*Jumped by a bunch of fat Mexicans
They wouldn't have done **** if they weren't part of a mob
I mean, isn't that all protesters do? Make signs and come up with unwitty chants.
What? That is not true at all.
If a kid leaves school and gets in a fight and gets beat up. That kid can call the police and there might be charges filed. Even if it happens at school, same thing. Even if it happens on the weekend.
Not necessarily. If it's off school grounds? I would say the parents of the victim would file a report with the police. If they call it in to the school, they could try to get the school to do something about it but most admin would direct them to the police and tell the parents that they will monitor the situation closely at school.
So to recap based on your apparent understanding of the incident based on your comments on here. Free speech isn't protected if it's used in a criminal act. The man yelled some pro-ICE stuff from his car which prompted the girl to throw a water bottle. THEN the guy stopped and chased her. What criminal act did he commit prior to her throwing the water bottle at him? In your opinion, he should have just kept his mouth shut and not use his right to shout pro-ICE messages. And this girl, who didn't agree with his message decided to throw a water bottle because she didn't agree with his pro-ICE message. Heaven help us as a society if we all just throw water bottles at people they hate of don't agree with.
Yeah, that sums it up pretty good. I'm not in favor of a middle aged man yelling at kids or chasing after school girls. And I am not in favor of kids throwing anything at people's cars.
