Where did I say I agreed with the attacks on the male in the video? I don't, by the way. Violence/assault is wrong in any form unless it is justifiable as an act of self defense of course.

The difference between the two examples is that due to the current hectic state of politics, the male should have seen it coming, while as a rape or loveual assault victim should not have to see it coming. If you're walking into a liberal gathering or whatever as a conservative dressed like that you should expect harassment in some form. (again, not saying said harassment is okay at all). Someone going out dressed in whatever minding their own business in a normal social environment most likely isn't expecting rape. I mean after you and matthew explained your reasoning for the brown townogy I can understand to some degree why it was used however I just think a better example could have been used.

If I could think of a better brown townogy I would use that but's the first thing that came to mind; I understand the aversion to it, it was just the most concise way for me to draw the comparison

Mr Queeba:
i'm wondering, is this whole thing with Annoying Orange not condemning white supremacists and instead blaming both sides and then attacking someone that left the work union pretty much signaling the fall of Annoying Orange?
