What a world we live in!

Edited videos and false posts to try to change the narrative.

I cant wait for AI to realistically recreate video of real attacks to give "proof".

It's all this place needs though. It feeds their confirmation bias.

"Confirmation bias"? Perhaps.
Or, perhaps it's the fact that, generally speaking, "interracial violence" in America is blacks attacking people of other races, most often white people.
When it comes to interracial violence occurring between blacks and whites, 90% of it is black on white. Hoof beats, horses, and all that.

Not saying that white on black violence doesn't occur. Of course it does. It's just not the norm... by a very wide margin.
If someone sees a video of a black and a white fighting, and assumes the black is the aggressor, it's because that is almost always the case.

In this case, I honestly can’t disparage the old guy.

1) he’s old AND fat/out-of-shape
2) Attacked by multiple assailants, who are all younger, in much better physical shape and faster

Simply put, he had his hands full just trying to cover and avoid taking a KO shot.

Unless you have a good amount of training, AND have the physical ability, you’re in serious trouble. Yes, I would 100% absolve the old man for drawing and shooting.

I’ve seen more than one slow, out-of-shape person get KO’ed from trying to ‘fight back’ because fighting back/taking a swing means opening up your defenses.

It’s dangerous enough 1-on-1 with a quicker adversary. They can literally beat you to the punch. With multiple-on-1 younger, faster attackers, he had a 99.9% chance of getting KO’ed, then stomped, if he dropped his hands from shielding his head.

IMO yep

He retreats and they keep advancing and assaulting him.

All according to some random claim, that apparently has since been deleted. He offers no proof or evidence. It’s a random claim from a random guy.

I'm supposed to believe that he went to legoland here, then for some reason boogied up to Virginia to go to their busch gardens, and then came back?

This sounds the most likely.   A grifter who has every incentive to distort the truth (or simply make up a narrative he wishes were true).   And being liberal means he's far more likely to do it publicly.

If he actually posted it and it's not just a photoshop (It's possible, but it'd be the most oddly specific account to frame), I hope the old white guy sues the shit out of them. Imagine not only getting you ass kicked, but then also getting slandered as a grandma puncher. Dude's having a really bad day.

I'm not saying it's true but multiple witnesses say that the old white dude was drunk and hit an older African American woman before he got jumped.


Read the Twitter feed and you'll see quite a few posts regarding this--not just the screenshot provided but the originator said that they heard this repeatedly when the event was going on (but also being called racist online).

Who knows if that's spin or truth.  Looks like assholes may have collided here.

Twitter is a force multiplier of misinformation. The post people are sharing screenshots of has a suspiciously specific level of detail from someone who was only a bystander.

Untrained on untrained, yes all day go to the gun if you need that, your odds are 50:50 who connects first and gets the upper hand.

I'm not a expert pro or anything but I have competed in MMA events(plural) with success, a trained and experienced opponent vs a untrained and inexperienced is hands on all day for me.  1-2 strikes to disable/discourage the first dude, may not even have to square up the second if he sees his boy eat two to the jaw and ko/tko.  

Also, a large amount of work experience with that clientele greatly assists in the rapid evaluation of the situation based on a 7-10sec video clip.

I know this is s gun website and I carry daily but again, not every problem is a gun problem.
