Serigne Diouf told The Bellingham Herald that he was picking up his girlfriend in Bellingham early Saturday morning when three men called him racial slurs and told him to leave.
Cell phone video of the incident shows Dioufs girlfriend getting punched in the face before Diouf attempts to retaliate with punches of his own. Racial slurs can be heard as one of the men tries to jump on Diouf.
Yeah, there is no racism in America anymore!

It's nice to see something to counter balance it.

Somehow this makes what that creep did slapping his girlfriend all ok?
Seriously?

If you don't like me writing that - tough for you.
I owe YOU nothing.
You don't count in my life - sorry - but that's the truth. <--- ETA In case anyone alerts on that - think about . . . why should some 'persona' on the other end of the internet register. It's a fact - just like John McCain doesn't count in my life.
cwydro
(51,308 posts)You sound very angry.
I sure am sorry about that.
JustAnotherGen
(31,780 posts)I prefer to see it as looking down my nose at people who always are quick to jump on black folks.
So the best YOU'VE got is -
You're angry - typical response to 'black women' when we get 'uppity'. I would have preferred you just gone ahead and said it. LOL! *kiss*
And - you didn't exactly respond to the OP did'ja now?
Where is the condemnation of a non black man punching that white girl from you?
cwydro
(51,308 posts)Word salad.
I've no idea what your race is, nor do I care.
But good lord, straighten out some of your sentences there, and maybe I can respond.
lovemydog
(11,833 posts)I don't understand why you're attacking her. The other thread you mentioned contained racist comments.
cwydro
(51,308 posts)So I have no idea why I'm being attacked either.
I simply pointed out that it was silly to think that a racist act by someone - somehow excuses domestic violence.
But hey. If it's ok with you and the other poster for a man to hit a woman, good for you.
I happen to disagree, and I do not give one shit what the man's race is.
JustAnotherGen
(31,780 posts)I never wrote that-
Why don't YOU - who are so 'angry' over NOTHING take it back -
Liar! Yeah - I called you a LIAR because you told a lie on both me and lovemydog!
You just lied. Neither of us EVER wrote that.
Why don't YOU straighte THAT out.

cwydro
(51,308 posts)What do you want me to "straighte" out?
It's morning and the sun is shining.
Life is too short to be so upset.
JustAnotherGen
(31,780 posts)I think your posts are a joke and something to laugh at. Notice your POSTS - not YOU.
You are the one all up in your feelings over the internet because I didn't write something you LIKE.

ProfessorGAC
(64,852 posts)That thing went way off the rails. Lots of people playing "you said". Sheesh.
lovemydog
(11,833 posts)No one is excusing domestic violence. Maybe you haven't read the other thread in its entirety. I have, and that's why I said I understood her perfectly well.
JustAnotherGen
(31,780 posts)You know? I think he has me on ignore now . . . I'm perfectly fine with that. He responded to my post - not the other way around. If he didn't like it or this op -
He should have trashed the entire thread which is what I did to that other thread. Only went back to it because of bluetires linking to it.
randys1
(16,286 posts)has tons of privilege and cant possibly understand the way non "you know who's" have to live.
JustAnotherGen
(31,780 posts)And some people here get to 'roll eyes' at people and then get hides on people when they 'bite back'.
I've not one fuck to give about these 'online personas'. My response going forward - Get off my ovaries!
You should start telling people - Get off my balls!
JustAnotherGen
(31,780 posts)He painted you and me worse, put words in our 'fingertips' -
And still hasn't condemned the white guys in the OP.
He just came here to attack - but I'm glad to serve as the target as opposed to the OP who is still fairly new here.
lovemydog
(11,833 posts)A poster on the internet claimed we think domestic violence is ok. And is now telling us to chill out and have a good day.
JustAnotherGen
(31,780 posts)Why don't you get back to the thread after you have composed yourself and can stop head snapping, neck twisting, and eye rolling because that's what your post implies is happening at your desk right now.
cwydro
(51,308 posts)Take a deep breath. Go outside. Take a walk.
Be happy to be alive. I don't use the ignore function, but I'm capable of just doing that with someone so obviously angry.
You have a nice day now.
Smile. Be nice to someone.
It helps.
JustAnotherGen
(31,780 posts)Had great morning sex with my husband today.
My wish for you is that you can make love to someone sometime today too!
You have a nice day.

I think I will follow cwydro's steps and I will say good bye to you. Have a nice day.

(13,985 posts)I certainly did not "mock" anyone. I just found her post distasteful.
JustAnotherGen
(31,780 posts)Distasteful.
You know what I do?
I don't respond to you. I don't put roll my eyes emoticons in posts to you. The er uh gentleman tried to pull a power play on me and I got him to get off my ovaries.
But - you had to write that. So I got to go back at you. See how that works?
I've never once written that to you - but I've thought it many times.
I'm just glad we can all be open and honest with our impressions of what other people post now. What we think of them.
What's fair is fair.

kiva
(4,373 posts)about a white man being violent, we need a thread about a black man being violent? What about Hispanic men? Asian men? Are middle-eastern men included or are they only in the domestic vs. foreign terrorist catagory? What about women, do we need gender balance?
Or maybe we could just acknowledge that some people are pondscum and leave it at that.
NaturalHigh
(12,778 posts)I have no idea how this turned into a thread about whether or not we should chastise people of different races more or less. The pond scum thing works for me.

(64,852 posts)As an reply to the OP, your simple reply is the best on this thread. This thing went sideways 40 posts ago.

(64,852 posts)Nothing wrong with a team effort!
Nye Bevan
(25,406 posts)but this kind of thing was sadly not exactly unknown prior to Donald Trump.
LittleBlue
(10,362 posts)Name and shame this racist. Hard to believe he's only getting 4th degree assault.
The department later reviewed the video and decided to arrest Zamora on suspicion of fourth-degree assault. The other men were not expected to face charges. Police Sgt. Mike Scanlon told The Bellingham Herald that the men could not be charged with a hate crime just for using racial slurs
Then the laws need changing.

Then the people posting are arguing about something I don't have clue what. ????????????
