    We aren't even talking about all the left leaning cities, so yeah... just the biggest ones that just about sum up to 50%. It's a statistical argument.

    Assault doesn't require a physical connection like with a battery charge so it would be up to a judge regarding Shia's level of threat.

    If it's assault let the courts decide. Police are also regularly seen on the stream and apparently didn't intervene so maybe you're not right on this. If the guy is so pressed about it I'm sure he can take the necessary steps.

    And again, your hearing was being permanently damaged whether he screamed in your ear or not is my point.

    It's a protest. He was going to counter-protest. That means he had a reasonable expectation that people would be shouting back at him like this. If he didn't want to experience that, he shouldn't have gone there and done that.

    If I go to a martial-arts training session, I don't get to scream "ASSAULT" when someone lays hands on me, even if it would be considered assault in another circumstance (which isn't even clear, for the shouting).

    Yeah it's a poor statistical argument. 80% of the population should easily be producing over half the GDP.

    Idk Endus, you can't really justify screaming into someone's ear no matter what. So they are kinda right about that. It can cause permanent damage and it would have been inflicted on purpose. The troll would have a solid case, it's just that I don't care about his miserable ass.

    Reread the post or I'll try to rephrase. I can't really translate what I mean that well.

    Yeah because Trump fans haven't done the same. Trump fans deserve to get everything that's coming at them.

    You're arguing against a point that wasn't even made, is the issue. It's a straw man.

    Here's the 50/50 split in GDP;



    The 50% in orange is just the 23 largest cities in the USA. There's way more than 23 urban centers. This isn't 80% of the population.

    Leftist? Hah! If only you knew how wrong you are.
    If i don't disagree with a persons actions, i must agree with them politically? The world isn't that black and white, and you might not want to make asumptions of others based on your own views... I can promise you that i am very consistent in my views since i don't pre-judge peoples actions based simply on their political believes.

    Do you not realize there's a difference between listening to loud music with headphones and having your eardrums blown out by a mortar? ...Wtf?

    Of course you don't have to be tall to be strong, but i guess you completely disregarded the part where i said he's not very muscular..

    The 80% is the percent of the US population that is urban.

    Would it be okay with me? No. But it also wouldn't be okay with me if he yelled at my Parrot, Kiwi. Also, any new information on the price of tea in China? Would it be socially acceptable if he yelled at my mother, wife, or daughter? Well that's not really up to me so I'm not sure what you even want to know.
    Anything worth doing is worth over-doing. Moderation's for cowards.

    No I know the difference. There's varying levels of loudness and severity of the damage they can cause but making your point that you were at a concert with "loud music" was kind of counter to your other point about your friend shouting in your ear. Without ear protection in that type of environment you're fucked either way.

    You're also trying to get me to admit it's assault and I'm telling you now that I disagree. As I've already said for the third or fourth time, take it to the police.

    At least you're admitting it's a jab, not something with a statistical basis.

    Nor a trained fighter to my knowledge. Manlet vs manlet where one inch is the deciding factor in intimidation
