Appropriate punishment or not?

The fact you think it’s ok to physically assault someone over a word that results in death is ok is quite something. Of course that’s the problem with todays world. Examples like the old man are what’s holding people back and not the sh***y work ethic that pissed him off enough to come inside. Can’t be dizrespekkeded.
I agree one word shouldn't be enough to cause someone to get violent, but the old man should never have been calling him the N word to begin with. I don't think you should downplay and trivialize it. It's a lot worse than just being disrespected.

You can still be polite even if they screw up an order. They're only human after all.

Vague question. Can you be more specific?

If you are asking if I could kill someone like an intruder and not think twice about it then yes I could. At that moment it’s not emotional. it’s survival of the fittest and my family is counting on me. I either do my job or I fail at my job. It becomes business.
Yeah. I could see that a bit easier than brutal violence or killing someone who has said some some ugly things to a member of your family. So are you that type of person the type you observed in your youth?

My sons mom is Filipino born and raised there. I have studied martial arts my whole life along with Brazilian styles and boxing and have even competed back when it was still in the basements.

My son doesn’t fear me.

His mom? His mom he is scarred to death of. She’s insane. I’m slightly scared of her myself. Filipino women are nuts when angry.

My children were raised to be respectful and I was raised to never ever touch a woman but if I ever saw my son call a woman a whore we would be having a very serious conversation. My son was raised to open car doors, open doors, say yes sir and yes man and stand up for those who can’t stand for themselves.
I understand and appreciate all of that . however you didn't really answer the question.. The question was not whether it is likely they would or would not. The question Was would you become physical if they did and did not heed your warning..

Sounds like a more violent version of a Latina wife.

Honestly lost on your question: what exactly are you asking?

I am never touching my girls.

My son also knows better so the question is moot. Sorry but that’s the honest answer.

I never know what to think about these conversations...I have lived most of my adult life outside the law, and I have no faith in the rule of law. I guess I should disqualify myself from participating. But I will say I don't much care that this old man died and I don't have anything against the guy that killed him
 
You have witnessed people beating others and tossing them in the garbage.. Yes?

I am really not discussing in length too much about this period of my life. I worked in a gentleman’s club that was closed down by the state due to multiple cocaine bust and prostitution bust. With those two elements you may understand the ownership. My check was a took company. Beyond that I am not saying more nor answering questions.

We knew the police abs had copies of license in the di booth and played bad boys when they came in to let both us and thrn know we knew they were there.

I did multiple things while removing people and was told to make examples and don’t worry about the consequences which honestly there never were any. We had a set of double doors and sometimes in large crowds we would carry the guy out like a board face down and use their heads to open the doors. By the time they hit the sidewalks they were already dazed.

I quit after about three years when I was literally dead inside. Hanging out with strippers and porn stars sounds like a blast until you are actually living it and your dealing with the drunk emotions when it all comes out.

I quit and put my hand on a phone book and prayed to God to open doors and shut doors and honestly He has done everything since then. I will always be that guy and I will never truly get that part of me back thst I lost but I try every day to be better.

You got a very honest answer. Probably too honest.

Do you just do your own Brazillians or is that a side hustle?

I just practice at home with my son and my friend. I just study Silat now which does include some of the grappling techniques with Mantis bleed over. I take a private class in Hendersonville with just one other person.

It’s the same as calling someone an a**hole or a cracker if you listen to most of this board. Lol

You're capable of entertaining hypotheticals which are moot. It is telling you refuse to do so.

Here's another which is certainly more likely than the original hypothetical. Your child is mocking and calling another kid (same age, gender, race) horrible names. Other kid warns your child to stop or there will be consequences. Your child continues and gets the snot beat out of them. Do you tell your child "lesson learned" or do you look to punish other kid (through appropriate channels)?

It doesn’t matter what the old man called him. He reacted like a person with the maturity of a 5 year old. Because of that, someone died. He should have taken out his phone and recorded him while they waited for the cops to show up. Then he could have sold his recording to the media for big bucks. You know they would have bought it as there is nothing more the media likes than ratcheting up racial divide.
 
And you'd still be wrong.

Still saying the racist hillbillies in Atlanta were justified?

Which part of that was he wrong about?

There’s this weird idea on the left that black people are charged with more crimes because they are “overpoliced” but the fact that 13% of the population commits the majority of murders in this country seems to disprove that claims.

If you disagree I’d love to know how?

Lesson learned and he deserved it.

There are consequences in life for being an idiot.
