I would love a response. I'm generally curious if, after seeing the video and reading everything, if this is the honest to God conclusion you've arrived at.
See, I think it's very, very doubtful that a college aged female in 2017 is publicly a racist, to the point of antagonizing a person of color in a public setting. I'm not saying it doesn't happen, just that it's unlikely. Just for the sake conversation, I'd guess that less than 25% of while woman that age vocally share a racist thought out loud, to anyone. And the number that would to a black man's face, in a public setting none the less, gotta be less than 1%, and more likely less than .01%.
I mean, I just don't think there's that many publicly racist teenage white women on college campuses. I could be wrong, and the numbers and percentages are meaningless, other than for me to try to prove my point. Which again, is that I find unlikely a girl this age shares those opinions or uses that language in a public setting. Unprovoked nonetheless.
But lets say you do make that argument, that it does happen, and it most likely was the gasoline that started this fire. How likely is it that a college aged female, WHO IS OUT WITH HER GAY FRIEND, is the type to exhibit this type of behavior? A young teenage girl in 2017, just out with her gay buddy, dropping the N bomb. It's becoming less and less likely
But wait, there's more. He claimed the gay friend also used a slur. In fact, he turned the table and said it. Keep in mind, the video later showed there were at least two black people sitting at the table. So a gay kid, turned to a table of black people, and called this guy the N word? That's his version of the events. A 20 year homosexual college student, in 2017, turned to a table of black people and dropped the N bomb, describing another black person, not two feet away. You buy that?
Watch the video. Tooti Fruity almost immediately turns away from Mixon and then later actually physically moves away from him. Sure looks like someone who either feels threatened, or is trying to to remove themselves from the situation. He appears to want no part of the situation.
She isn't even looking at him at first, and clearly they initially walked away. He followed. Yet you claim they were intentionally antagonizing him? Why? What facts do you have to support this? The evidence seems to point to the contrary.
The sad thing is that we even need to break this down. It really doesn't matter. She was no physical threat to him. The idea that she clearly intended or wished to do more damage to him, as you just said, is absolutely ridiculous. Get the **** outta here with that. Push her off, file a report, leave the room, something. Anything other than throw a haymaker. His safety was never in question. She shoved him.
You know, I'm just going to stop here. You ought to be ashamed of yourself. You and everyone who goes out of their way to defend this. This is an absolute joke of a take.
Anyone with a brain sees it for what it is. This guy is a scumbag who knocked a girl unconscious for no warranted reason. None. And he played the race card, because he had no other defense. Regardless, there isn't single reason, no matter what happened, that her behavior warranted that response. And it's disgusting to pretend there is.
She, nor her friend denied his allegations. She has an arrest record herself and, despite the done up photos making her look like one, is no angel.
Not sure if your description of the events are accurate. If I recall, Mixon's friend said something to the girl hitting on her outside the shop and the gay friend started talking %#&* at them and dripped the N word (don't act like gay people can't talk #$@&) and Mixon's friend and the guy got huffy at each other. Mixon went in to talk to the girl and smooth it over and she was wasted and pushed/hit him. He then popped her. She also admitted to be wasted and "not remembering" what was actually said outside.
That doesn't mean she deserves to get punched or hurt. But I'm not going to go blast a guy for the incident from 2014, when some of the facts of it are dodgy on the victim's side. She got the wrong end of something she didn't exactly deserve, but she isn't some innocent bystander sitting around drinking coffee and this guy just came up and assaulted her out of left field.
