Now if the cop was white and the girl was black what would happen if this video was uploaded.

Now what would happen if we didn't try to race bait every conversation?

So you’d admit that people would lose their shit.

It's just sad because people are doing just that even though it's not the other way around.

It's almost like it doesn't make a difference, but could you imagine if it was a man that hit a woman and she hit back? :P

That's the real switch here. But the amount of force is important.

If a drunk Bill Gates drunk-slapped Dilma Roussef and she knocked him out with a punch to the face, I think it would still be seen as disproportionate from her and people would condemn Dilma's response. Or maybe not.
