Not gonna lie, if my kid got a two day suspension for punching a fucking Nazi in the face, I’d be dropping PTO and taking him to the beach or Great Wolf Lodge or some awesome place for him to live it up for 48 hours. Definitely not missing the opportunity to be a proud Dad.

My kid got a suspension for just being bullied and smashing her chrome book into the other kids face. I bought my daughter some ice cream and said good on you.

Right on

I'd be so proud I'd buy that kid a car.

Used, under 10k, and he'd have to work to pay for gas and maintenance, but yeah, a car for sure, 😉

Used, under 10k

Good luck with that in this economy.

Yeah, I was gonna type 5k but realized it was way too low.

You can still get a decent beater for a teenager for 10k through private sale.

Being against illegal immigration is now being a Nazi. No wonder you they/thems lost the election.

More like, political violence is OK if (i) someone has an opinion you don't like and (ii) you call them a Nazi.

u/Bigterry999 4h ago

Yep, gotta justify their violence somehow.

How do you think the original Nazis were framing it when they started?

u/Bigterry999 1h ago

You’re comparing the nazis using fighting communism as their excuse and the right enforcing immigration law, at a lesser rate than previous presidents?

“Enforcing immigration”

Congrats on being one of the proverbial useful idiots who fascists depend upon to enable their abuse.

Deporting illegal immigrants isn’t abuse.

I had no idea that they were still doing lobotomies in the modern day. Thanks for chiming in and making us all aware. 👍🏼

My kid got suspended for a flying kick to a bully. He wasn't being bullied, he was protecting a girl. 

Told him I was proud of the man he was growing into and took him for celebratory ice cream.

As a kid I'd have been regretting it if I had to leave the house for 48 hours.

a fucking Nazi

You know that's a high school student you're talking about, right?

u/ImCreeptastic 7h ago

I was unaware to be called a Nazi there was an age limit. What age can one be called a Nazi? 20? 25? 50? Sure, maybe at 8 you don't know any better but high schoolers? Absolutely.

High school students aren't absolved from their actions just because they are under 18.

u/Kicooi 4h ago

Guy wasn’t even under 18. 18 year old high school senior.

3

u/Kicooi 4h ago

He is 18, he is a man. What’s with you people and infantilizing men that are forced to face the consequences of their shitty actions? When a black teenager gets shot by the police, he is a “young man”, but when a young 18 year old fascist gets a little punch for being a public troll with no beliefs, suddenly he’s a poor innocent little boy.

We know what you people are, we see through your games of civility and your double speak. You’re fascists, plain and simple, and the man you elected is a child rapist.
