>>14212467100%. These are the guys who have never been in a fistfight and think "throw the first punch" is a viable defense in court. On Planet Not-Retarded, just someone getting up in your face and chest bumping you is a license to fucking deck them in the face and get 0 charges other than DC. (You better be able to back that punch up, though, because once you punch them, it's mutual combat time)
That's why bullies, guys in bars, etc, dare you to punch them first: it's STILL assault/menacing for them to say they'll fuck you up or shoot/stab or otherwise injure you, it's STILL battery if they spit on, shove, chest bump you.....but two people exchanging blows, no matter how brief, isn't going to land them in jail for beating your ass.
The people who still don't get it by this point don't want to get it.
>>14212476You didn't have to ether him that badly, damn. But yeah, moments like these bring out the grown men who actually know what they're talking about vs the fucking geeks who spend hours daily fanboying for WWE/AEW/whoever.
The whole "lunging" thing is extra funny because Defendants in court do what Punk did all the time and get in zero trouble. Leaning forward and aggressively pointing is not the same as lunging in a menacing fashion, esp. with a fist cocked back. Was Tony Khan in fear that CM Punk was going to poke his eye out? No? Then he wasn't lunged at. End of story.
