"Ah that was nothing" reminded me of "it's just a flesh wound!" from monty python.

Lions are not meant to be played with. Look at Siegfried and Roy who worked with huge tigers daily for years and years, and still (nearly fatal) incidents can happen. This reporter had a little too much machismo for going in there in the first place, and it could have ended much worse.

But I'm sure he got laid that night

If you'll permit me a tangent, let me tell you a thing or two about American military men. The ones I've known are typically rapists and murderers who cannot fit into society without the occasional jail time, and they also need an outlet to channel their overblown machismo which typically is a result of their latent homosexuality.
I'm not saying that's what smooman is up there, but... man, does that tool fit the goddamn bill. And with a name like "smooman" it's not too difficult to bridge the gap between his name and something akin to "smoochman" or "sploodgeman". He may just be the catcher in the rye, if you get my meaning. The barrel boy. And is angry to admit he likes it.
Personal attacks aside, he's still a douchebag for attempting to place the blame squarely on the woman in this scenario. Tangent, but that's another sign of latent homosexuality: blaming women for the dregs of society.


What the fuck?

?? I think you misread what I wrote. There are 3 or so posts above us that say these things, not one post that is 3 posts above us.

And the post I referred to is this one by rottenseed, which appears to have the most upvotes on the entire page:
"Fucking machismo. Little pricked Mexicans can get away with harming women because it's part of their culture. What happened before this altercation? I am willing to bet it's 1 of the following things:
1) He grabbed her ass while walking by
2) He called her something when she rejected his advances"

Let's see. Insults based on both physical and cultural factors. Plus prejudicial assumptions about behavior without significant evidence either way in this individual case. Great.

Anyway, yes, I agree, many posts merely wish to have severe violence brought down upon the guy, without factoring in race/culture/whatever. I guess that makes those posts a few percentage points less repulsive and barbaric. Yay.

>> ^jerryku:
EndAll, there are like three posts above us that specifically bring up the guy's ethnicity. One of them is the most popular post in the page, when judging by the upvotes. It focuses on his "Mexican" background very strongly too, saying that Mexicans have 1) small penises, and 2) are culturally programmed to be sexist. Another post went further, saying it was a "Latin" thing. Then another talked about it being an Islamic thing.
There aren't undertones in those posts since they were very overt.


Yeah, my bad, hard keeping up with all these comments. I was just editing my post to say that if you were referring to rottenseeds comment(s) specifically, then yeah, I see what you're saying. But a lot of the other ones weren't, including the non-existent one 3 posts above us you referred to. Some used the term 'machismo' but that doesn't necessarily mean it's 'Mexican machismo'

I personally just think it's funny how much machismo begets machismo. I mean come on, none of you commentators were even there to witness the full event, and yet about half of the comments are about how you'd do this or that to kick the guy's ass. This is how wars start.

It's instinctual to protect our women from those willing to hurt them. To pretend otherwise is naive.

As to what happened before, obviously it was nothing threatening, otherwise why would she be just standing there?
She didn't do one single thing that required striking her other than an assault to his overblown machismo.
I would have liked to seen what happened after though, her friends were just starting to get up, but I guess Footweeper's friends didn't want to post him getting bitchslapped like the pussy he is.


Actually RIGHT as the video ends it appears another dude from off to the left of the camera view comes and shoves/hits him. Again, it would've been neat to see what happened afterwards. I personally just hope he had the snot beaten out of him, and the girl learned a lesson.

It was probably a bit much, tossing her into the pool would've been more appropriate.
So did the crowd kick his ass?

Yeah, it'd be neat to see what happened next..
He's not Mexican, btw - the YouTube vid said he was French-Moroccan.

I apologize for the misconception. Machismo is a real part of Spanish culture. If he is in fact "French-Moroccan" he's got the Islamic view of women...which apparently is that they can be swept and knocked to the ground. I guess she should be grateful she wasn't beheaded...

Fucking machismo. Little pricked Mexicans can get away with harming women because it's part of their culture. What happened before this altercation? I am willing to bet it's 1 of the following things:
1) He grabbed her ass while walking by
2) He called her something when she rejected his advances

Anybody who thinks she deserves that after watching this out-of-context clip, is a real dick. The only thing that could've qualified this behavior is if she did something like knee him in the crotch for no reason, killed his puppy, etc.

lol get back to work... everyone already thinks you're cool; you have camo and tattoos. stop hogging the machismo.

someone get these guys some entertainment... you'd think they were stoned!

God, I hate people like that; guys covered in unnecessary machismo. She should have taken his license.

I wonder if they'll get "Black Machismo" from TNA (Total Nonstop Action) to make new spots for Slim Jim. He has got the license, or permission, or whatever it is they need to use Macho Man's old persona now-a-days.

Well after some research I found it's just a parody of the Macho Man persona so they don't break copyright. So I guess not.

You missed my point about China and Russia. I am aware of history and current affairs. I clearly see them as competitors, but to freely call them enemies is careless behavior as he just classified 1.46 billion people as our enemies. It encourages the small-minded Us vs. Them mentality. No doubt it was purposeful because that type of mentality is popular as unthinking machismo will always sell well.

There's a damned good reason why voters don't trust liberals with national defense. It has something to do with refusing to acknowledge the world is a dangerous place and that countries that treat their subjects like playthings to be killed at will would also do the same to the populations of other countries. With democratic/republic governments Russia and China could very well surpass the US economically without firing a shot, but they don't really have freedom and are much closer to tyranny. Question who is unthinking versus who is thinking ahead.

China has actually been extremely market-oriented in their effort to secure resources. Other countries enjoy working with them because they demand nothing in return. I watch some interviews with citizens in Chad. The US had promised to build hospitals (still not built) and forced human rights, etc as conditions. (Not saying human rights is wrong, I'm just saying.) However, China comes in, does what it promises and requires no demands be met in its agreements. Would they claim resources by force? Probably, but right now they don't need to.

I'm waiting to see if the Chinese abandon their one-child-per-family law. If they do, that's a good indicator of their future plans. Mao wanted to drown the West in "a human wave." Russia will know first when it happens.
