What’s cool about the article is that the police did a good job arresting him after he pulled out the taser and asked if that’s all they had. I’m sure they could’ve shown him their 9mm and seen if he could stop those with his gut.
With all the press the police get when they fail to do their job properly, we should give them credit when they do.
As for the man himself, anyone who - drunk or not - hits his fiancee is a cowardly dirtbag in my book and should be ashamed of even calling himself “a man.”

Hang on, I thought that due to political correctness that it is Ok for a man to hit a woman?
I thought since women got equal pay and the vote we could slap em?
Sorry If I got this wrong but I thought the sexes were now equal and we are now allowed to bitch slap bitches?[/quote]
In Canada it is assault whether you are hitting the same sex or not. But you still get looked down upon if you are a man hitting a women. Usually the cops beat you up if they can get away with it.
I know what you are saying about the equal rights bullshit by the way; I totally understand your anger.

Haha ive said this to so many of my friends.
How come people are striving to give women and men equal rights, but we have to open doors for them, and if they open it for us we look like pussies?

I’m pretty sure we are not “allowed” to hit anyone, regardless of sex.
Men and women still are not equal in society. White male privilege continues to exists, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that men have it easy.
And, I’m pretty sure I’ve said this before, but…I can open my own fucking door.
What are these white male privileges you write about?[/quote]
White male privilege is a result of the way in which social institutions are set up so that white men benefit most, and women and other races are at a disadvantage. One example of this could be the overrepresentation of men in politics.
But…I wouldn’t worry too much about it. All these things related to the social sciences are useless anyway. (Yes, I’m making a reference to that old thread) Plus, I’m not going to play the game where we argue over whether or not men and women are equal, deserve to be equal, or if equality is even possible.

This is my first day on this site so I don’t know what previous thread you’re referring to, and your mind seems to be already closed to any other point of view so I will not bother wasting my time.
