If self defense was the only thing that mattered, then clearly other people like Kyle Rittenhouse or George Zimmerman should have been worshipped by the media as well.

I'm not saying Beard Man was wrong for fighting back. It's the opposite. Everyone clearly saw he was the victim and not the black guy. Yet you would think this logic would apply to all future black/white conflicts that have since erupted.

But I think Markimus answered this. 2010 was before the BLM movement had gained traction and made it risky to defend yourself. EVEN when you do have the right to.

It isn't just that he defended himself. It's that he defended himself on camera. There's no ambiguous situation there. There isn't any doubt about who tried to start the fight. Beard Man moved away, and the black moved on to him to attack him.

It's not like Rittenhouse where we know little about what happened before what was on the footage, or Zimmerman where there was no footage. It's like that one time two years ago where that white woman pulled a gun on that black and her offspring and everyone thought it was a "racist attack", until the footage before she pulled the gun showed up that clearly showed that the blacks were harassing her.

I wondered what happened with that. The fake news was having a field day with it, then it just disappeared.

Because no one apparently cares about a family having their lives ruined by an opportunistic bitch crying racism. It's hard to even find out what happened after the arraignment.

Both of them lost their jobs. No news found on the criminal charges.

Update. They are still awaiting trial facing 4-years in prison. Jill Wuestenberg was 8 months pregnant at the time of the incident. The full video clearly shows the black woman threatening her and making racial comments.

Imagine being the victim of racial harrassment, but instead of arresting the perpetrator, they arrest you and you get fired for being racist when there is undeniable video evidence that you were the victim?
