whatever. It appears my common sense level is on a different level than yours. Next time, in that situation, if you want to tell a mom to go to hell, feel free.
I will sing "it's all about that base, bout that base, no treble" for @ a minute in my head, check out and drive away with my teeth in tact and no sign of a self absorbed ego that would require me to give said mom my opinion.

I've already stated I thought the young woman was wrong. I've not excused her behavior or what she said. I've just said it doesn't justify the mom escalating it to a physical level. The young lady didn't "deserve" to be physically beaten.

If common sense tells you it's okay to beat on people that say things you don't like, then yes, your common sense level is on a different level than mine.

You know, a parenting forum on VN might not be a bad idea. People that need them could get some good tips and advice from other parents. My Mom was our parenting forum when our first child was born.

Pointing out a fact isn't flawed logic. You not liking the fact is flawed.
The fact that the lady's words caused an idiot to act aggressively can't be changed or debated.

Fact? You must be joking. The lady escalated the situation to violence because she's an uncivilized animal and that's what uncivilized animals do. The lady did nothing that would even come close justifying a violent reaction.

Though I probably wouldn't, I'm not even willing to say her simply asking the lady to quite her child was "wrong".

yeah, that's not what I've said at all. This has gone over your head and I try to stop discussions when someone isn't following along or just makes up **** for the hell of it.

you call the mom an uncivilized animal but are shocked she had a violent reaction?

Not once have I said the word "justified" either. If you guys can't post with accuracy or without emotion, go to another thread.

The fact that the mother failed to control her child caused an idiot to mouth off. The blame game is easy to play. Both sides have fault. That doesn't make it okay that the mother escalated to physical violence. It also doesn't make it the young woman's fault that the mother decided to go that route.

He actually never said either party was right, wrong, justified or unjustified. His point is merely that right, wrong or indifferent, if you engage someone in a fashion that is none of your business don't complain about what may or may not happen to you as a result of butting in on a strangers business.

Everybody understands your stance. We just all think it's stupid. There's a big difference.

How many times have you been in s similar situation Sparty? You seem a little "to close" to this.

How many times would I like to say whatever the hell I want to towards a person, but have the common sense to be quiet instead of causing a potential issue?
Countless, of course.

I could give a flip what you think about it. You are probably the guy that would run your mouth and get your ass whipped by a pissed off "uncivilized animal", then cry about it not being fair, while I laugh my ass off and video it.

someone else here is capable reading, rational thought and basic common sense. Good to see.

Well obviously, none of us will know how loud the kid was. But we all can imagine a situation where a kid is loud and disruptive enough that it does become our business when it affects other people around them.

it was in a checkout line! If you can't keep your composure for 2-3 minutes of a kid crying, stay inside.

believe it or not, there are a lot of single mothers that have no choice but to tote their child around, happy or unhappy, tired or rested, sick or well. Millions, actually. So adapt or possibly get whipped, I suppose.

Most of those cases won't involve a check out line, and the more civilized way to butt in would be to defer the situation to the manager of the establishment in a respectful and discreet manner to avoid creating a situation where you create more stress than already exists by mouthing off and embarrassing someone in public that ain't having a good day.

<p>Typically not though. Most people quick to mouth off are less likely to whip someone that has self control. They may be good at intimidation, but fall short on backing it up. For every person someone can whip, there are two that can whip you. Not worth the chance. I will draw the line when it calls for defending family and that is the only way. In all other scenario's, intelligence and respect towards others when they don't deserve it scores more points.</p>
