I wasn't trying to be insulting to you, just trying to point out that I don't think you're in a situation too often where you have to fight an unknown combatant. My apologies if that was inaccurate, but yes, based on what I "know" about you on here I thought that was a safe conclusion.

You're right, I don't get confronted with that situation very often. Other than a party that turned bad once every 3-4 years, and then of course there's middle school.
To me it just seemed like some of you were taking your despisement for the chicks and using it to excuse the dude for whatever he does. I agree there's always going to be an adrenaline rush when someone is attacked. But it doesn't always excuse their actions. It said the jury took 11 hours, not 1, so apparently it wasn't cut and dry for them.
