1·5 days agoIt also depends on where and other context. If it is an old frail man or a woman being punched by a dude twice their size it absolutely can be. I also said it depended on the state and I said maybe. I’m not spreading false information.

1·5 days agoIt really depends on the state. Quite a few people have been killed by being sucker punched. So if you punch someone out of the blue they can say they feared for their life.
And breaking legs, the amount of force depends on the person. My daughter broke her own legs twice just by slipping on a stair a little. What if they’re carrying a retractable baton and when you punch them they hit you in the knee with it? Not unreasonable in a lot of the US.

3·5 days agoI can’t speak to the laws in other nations but in the US it depends a lot on where they’re recording. If you’re just out on the street, it’s not only not a crime to record in public, it’s a protected right. So if you punch them they’d be solidly in their rights to mace you or break your legs, maybe even shoot you in many states. And then have you arrested and force you to pay for a new pair of glasses.
But if they were doing that shit on private property or somewhere worse like a restroom, give them the ol western bouncer treatment and send them flying out the door with a broken pair of glasses. I mean you could assault them out bin public too, but there could be some unpleasant consequences.
I wish I could do better than my parents but that is out of the question. I grew up poor, we were middle class when I was in high school, and then my boomer dad started making good money right as I was graduating and moved out. I make less less than half of what he was making 35 years ago, not even adjusting for inflation. I have no retirement savings but maybe I’ll get a small inheritance if I manage to outlive them both and medical bills don’t burn through their funds. I’m expecting to work for 60 years.
I’m expecting 13-73.

Whatever you are, everyone has preferences. I’d prefer to be younger and more attractive but I’d also prefer that in a partner even though I’m not that myself. I love the vibes of older people but not many older people have taken good care of their bodies. I get it, it is difficult.
