    I’m surprised how serious you take black eyes

    The story could easily be “racist woman gets punched in face after saying something”

      What? Where does it say at all in the article that these woman were racist to the guys before being attacked?

        Apparently the women started it, got hit, then the attack was over and everything was civil when police arrived

        That isn’t indicative of an attack, and as highlighted above the damage done is pretty minimal for 10 on 2

        However the side you take will change the version of events you believe. My point was just that the media is taking a biased approach to the story and could flip it the other way if they wanted

            Oh good so you caught the part where the article was displaying a bias

            My statement wouldn’t have made sense if you didn’t

            Did you catch the part where she says the men claim she started it and the media didn’t follow up on it?

                Lol, I haven’t taken a side

                I just pointed out a bias and that there isn’t enough information for anyone to take a side

                  we tend to show bias towards the victims. even if those women started it, they shouldn’t have been beaten… by men. if you’re a man, you don’t touch a woman unless it’s self defense.

                  you really come off as some kind of edgy teen douche. are you an edgy teen douche?

                    That guy is a troll, and he’s not even good at it. The faux high road crap is giving him away.

                    We don’t know who the victim is

                    All we know is the woman claims to be the victim and the men claim to be the victim

                    you don’t touch a woman unless it’s self defense.

                    Equality, you don’t touch anyone unless it’s self defence
