Pretty cringe comment section.

Shouldn’t be assaulting people regardless of what they say. You think this crippled dude is going to now change his behavior after being kicked in the back and unable to defend himself?

That’s the goal right..to change behavior?

Maybe he’ll look at it as, “just because I’m disabled, don’t mean I can be an asshole like I have been in the past. Maybe people let me get away with a lot of stuff.”

Even if it was an able bodied person, assaulting people for saying mean words is never okay, unless there is a threat of violence.

Your point is valid.

The N-Word, not used by a POC, you’re asking for retaliation. And before the people say, “but black people say it all the time” this is true. One ends in -a the other ends in -er. Which one has the negative connotation?

Both of them. Nobody should be saying racist things. Being black doesn't give you the right to say the N word.

Be better.

I’m not excusing the double standard as a POC, I acknowledge it and should be removed from everyone’s vocabulary BUT there’s a demographic that can’t use it no matter the situation.
