A man was harassing a woman in the elevator. See what she did.♥️ [View all] riversedge Friday OP

Good on her! 3catwoman3 Friday #1

Sadly true. niyad Friday #96

Well, yes, there is that. 3catwoman3 Friday #97

It's all bdamomma Friday #165

life can be challenging when you think with your dick. and so many of them do nt orleans Friday #167

I had a biology professor in college that said something like that. WinstonSmith4740 Yesterday #190

She beat the crap out of him !!!!!!! Yahooooo Trueblue1968 Yesterday #191

Good LetMyPeopleVote Friday #2

Sorry, but from a legal standpoint, that's got to be excessive use of force. PeaceWave Friday #3

Nah...and he won't report it anyhow. MineralMan Friday #7

He was immobilized after the kick to his crotch. The knee to his head was overkill. PeaceWave Friday #9

How was she to know that? I would have been scared to death that he would attack again in that closed space. AnotherMother4Peace Friday #15

He never raised his head again after the kick to the crotch. He clearly was no longer a threat. PeaceWave Friday #32

What leads you to assert a momentarily lowered head removes all threat? Torchlight Friday #34

Are you really going to ask a sexual assault victim BidenRocks Friday #60

I included an excerpt from the post I responded to Torchlight Friday #61

Perhaps quotation marks might have avoided confusion. I knew niyad Friday #92

Bet you that those who are trying to give the assaulter protection are not female. efhmc Friday #102

Definitely. MorbidButterflyTat Friday #115

You underestimate the danger she was in ninjanurse Friday #133

Now is that clearly no longer a threat in your eyes or hers? usedtobedemgurl 18 hrs ago #214

Same as emptying a magazine RoseTrellis 19 hrs ago #205

Shooting someone is a bit more damaging than a groin kick Attilatheblond 19 hrs ago #207

Don't think he'll be pressing charges, but if he does, my money is on her. Joinfortmill Friday #17

Maybe a little overkill is what he needed. GaYellowDawg Friday #18

IMO if she stopped short of debilitating him until the doors opened, this story would have a different ending. Hope22 17 hrs ago #220

I am guessing that it must be difficult to be a woman within your circle of niyad Friday #27

Absolutely! SheltieLover Friday #49

What would Krusty Gnome have done?? BattleRow Friday #66

Pulled out her gun? niyad Friday #98

What man would touch Kristie Gnome? maxrandb Friday #124

Well, there is at least one. Wednesdays Friday #131

Great response niyad Brenda Friday #138

Thank you. It took a bit to write calmly! niyad Friday #140

It's been sad to see apologists here for decades. Brenda Friday #142

I am absolutely not surprised, coming from that one Skittles Yesterday #181

So disappointingly true. niyad Yesterday #185

Thank you. niyad Yesterday #186

The Asshole was groping a woman in an elevator. MineralMan Friday #69

I agree liberalgunwilltravel Friday #95

Some people respond as if it's not the real world people live in. MineralMan Friday #101

Thank you for mentioning training in self defense oberle Friday #169

She made it quite clear after the 1st kacekwl Friday #80

Nobody is immobilized by one woman's kick to the groin synni Friday #88

No it wasn't and her defense was exactly as women are trained to do when being assaulted ms liberty Friday #120

Not from my viewpoint Sanity Claws Friday #10

The legal standard for self-defense allows individuals to use "reasonable, proportional force." PeaceWave Friday #14

You wholly ignore 'Reasonable Fear' Torchlight Friday #20

The fact that she was trapped & couldn't escape changed the situation, IMO. CrispyQ Friday #29

....... bluestarone Friday #38

And she reasoned that he needed a little more reason not to re-attack. MineralMan Friday #74

Your concern for the sexual predator is noted. chia Friday #119

if a guy touches me uninvited Skittles Yesterday #183

Sorry, he had ample opportunity to act in an adult and civil manner Torchlight Friday #11

He put hands on her mcar Friday #22

He wasn't going to stop The Blue Flower Friday #26

That's right mcar Friday #160

He put his hands on her TWICE Seinan Sensei Friday #45

She had every reason to believe he wouldn't stop mcar Friday #161

Is there a legal limit on beating a potential rapist to the floor? I saw no blood, body parts were still attached irisblue Friday #23

Even if in a place with a "duty to flee" IbogaProject Friday #25

Not excessive at all Soul_of_Wit Friday #30

If that was done to my Daughter or my Wife Seinan Sensei Friday #50

Nope. She's got it on video. He was warned. thought crime Friday #33

LOL don't you ever watch scary movies? leftstreet Friday #40

Yeah. You're right. Too bad she wasn't wearing a stiletto, right? PeaceWave Friday #43

Sorry. Your post is just so tone deaf leftstreet Friday #48

Self-defense, not aggression. niyad Friday #51

This is the problem. Self defense isn't a free pass for unlimited aggression. PeaceWave Friday #57

What then is the precise point at which defense ends and aggression begins? Torchlight Friday #59

see post 27 niyad Friday #82

It's not a free pass for anything. Aristus Friday #93

Unlimited aggression? MontanaMama Friday #99

The problem is MorbidButterflyTat Friday #117

Unlimited aggression would have been empting a full magazine on his self entitled ass. Attilatheblond 18 hrs ago #212

Ah, correct! leftstreet Friday #58

And I am so FUCKING PISSED at the misogynistic, patriarchal BS niyad Friday #109

Misogyny is Patriarchy's oxygen leftstreet Friday #110

Absolutely! SheltieLover Friday #67

Stiletto to the eyes face would be an effective response. irisblue Friday #84

There was a reason I used to wear 4-inch heels when I was in public. niyad Friday #125

Stick him with a Hat Pin! BidenRocks Friday #152

Somehow I think that kick to the balls Hope22 19 hrs ago #208

There isn't a jury on this planet that would convict her. cloudbase Friday #42

He was lucky she didn't pull out a pistol. Nt spooky3 Friday #70

Sadly, you are overly optimistic about juries. I have seen too many niyad Friday #126

Indeed. Some of the posts beggar belief. cloudbase Friday #127

Sadly true! niyad Friday #129

It absolutely is not obamanut2012 Friday #53

If she were a man... Dear_Prudence Friday #54

Killing him would have been excessive use of force Random Boomer Friday #56

And I hope she reported him to the police. Nt spooky3 Friday #72

He assaulted her, she moved away, he assaulted her again Justice Yesterday #192

He put his hands on her. She had no idea what was next. Irish_Dem Friday #62

What legal standpoint? fujiyamasan Friday #65

Thank you for pointing that out. niyad Friday #128

Not a problem fujiyamasan Friday #145

I heard that some Japanese rail lines BidenRocks Friday #157

While that is helpful to a degree, it does not address the problem niyad 22 hrs ago #197

This would be a good training video ! thought crime Friday #171

She was trapped in a box with a man who assaulted her. LuckyCharms Friday #68

"If she had killed him for it, she would have been justified." - Sorry, but no, she would not have been justified. PeaceWave Friday #75

You're very wrong. LuckyCharms Friday #77

No. I'm right and no amount of being upset at me (for raising the point) or the legal system (for being what it is)... PeaceWave Friday #86

I think you're confusing rejections of your assertions with "being upset" Torchlight Friday #90

Snicker Brenda Friday #139

Oh, I'm not upset at all. LuckyCharms Friday #100

She turned and pushed a button BidenRocks Friday #158

She should've shouted "but the DOW is over fifty thousand" Shambala Friday #114

Snicker niyad Friday #132

Public Service Notice ninjanurse Friday #134

Not sure about this because she would surely have been in fear of her life. He assaulted her by PatrickforB Friday #154

Well, if that had gone to trial and she was in the dock on assault charges, and I were on the jury... Jedi Guy Friday #178

I don't think so. A man is bigger and stronger than a woman, so she would be justified in fearing that if she didn't tblue37 Yesterday #184

A women who was assaulted in a confined space she cannot readily retreat from can/should use all the force she can Attilatheblond 19 hrs ago #206

And That's How You Do It! MineralMan Friday #5

She really dealt with that assaulter but hope she also called security and police to protect other less capable women. MLAA Friday #6

The fact that we are seeing the video... Soul_of_Wit Friday #36

I'm pretty sure a lot of elevators have security cameras in them. MineralMan Friday #78

I assumed it was security video Soul_of_Wit 19 hrs ago #209

I never suggested she put herself in a corner. Omnipresent Yesterday #194

And if he came at her again when her back was against the wall, she could have been trapped. ShazzieB Friday #151
