The lady was a complete moron and deserves a felony charge, she also looks like the one that started it, and we saw how things spiraled out of control.

He'll get a fine, pay it and move on.

If she's found guilty of a felony that will follow her around for a loooong time even if she's only fined.

Um did you watch the video? He was assaulted first by two different people. Swinging at someone is trying to hurt him. The charge is BS.

I doubt that charge could stick, the video clearly shows him not only defending himself, but holding back and calming white knight once the assault is stopped.

I thought "white knight" was just some stupid term used on the internet. Does it have applications in the real world?

It works well to instantly identify a total wanker when they say it aloud in public.

This board is bursting with internet white knights, and they get to run the show around here too.

Why not in real life?

You should probably go start a new forum then, because obviously you guys bitching about it isn't working.

In NY, you run into weirdos and whackos pretty much every day...and you quickly learn the best way to deal with people like this is to just remove yourself from the situation (or act like nothing is happening, like the one girl in the black jacket by the door). Getting involved in every drama you see played out every day would eventually have some really crappy consequences for you. The smartest one was the dude at the beginning of the video who knew something was up and moved away early.

Yup, if you put white people in that sort of situation you will see them develop speed capable of shattering 100m sprint records.

Good answer, and a fair point.

We all know (I hope) that "white knight" is a term used by anonymous internet tough guys as an ineffectual insult aimed at men who are not sexist weirdos.

No surprise that it doesn't get used in the real world.

Thanks!
