Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
How... How do you even do that????? Dumbfounded.
i remember seeing that video of a gross pervert that jerked off on woman shoppers, never knew it was a DT store on r/publicfreakout a while back. the dude was chicken just ran off after coming on them.
Fucking gross. What the fuck is wrong with men these days? And I'm saying this as a man. Fucking hell.
They're really becoming a race of fucking baboons. Between the looksmaxxing incels, the christo-fascists, misogynists, and these sexual predators, there's just no end to the shit men are doing these days. You can't rely on them to save our society from the predators that rule it, because they're on the same fucking team.
I swear, if I have faith in anyone to save our society it's going to be women and queer folk. Because the men have lost it.
well, the reason for our society being fucked up is men are fucked up, so the last sentence is pretty accurate I guess.
As bad as it is today, I'm assuming it's still better than most of history. It's not a woman's duty to service her husband anymore, he can still get charged with rape even when married.
Fully agree, wish I could have said it so eloquently. Calling them baboons is insulting to baboons.
eloquently
lol!!! Thanks
My partner showed me an article some time ago about something that needs to make a comeback: hatpinning
I see too many stories about men who could use a good hat pinning
Hatpinning: taking a hat and pinning it to a tree to symbolize faith in racoon people taking over
No, it's tracking the exact lat/long of your hat using a Google Maps pin.
What the actual fuck?
And to the wastes of space downplaying this or making fun of it, good work of proving everybody right that says men simply suck.
The future is fuckin weird.
Fuckin' a dude! I feel like that dude hitting the bong watching some people fight. I'm just here for the entertainment at this point.
I will, for sure, kill a mfer for doing that to me or my wife.
This should end up with them on the sex offender registry. It won't, but it should.
I mean what else would it be if not sexual assault tantamount to rape?
Under Texas law, it's indecent assault, a misdemeanor for a first offense in most cases. It's similar in Pennsylvania. Those are two of the states where incidents in the article took place.
I'm generally against the recent trend to increase the severity of existing crimes, but I will make an exception here: this should be a felony.
This is repulsive. As a (wo?)man, I’d beat the fucking shit out of anyone who does this.
The issues is most women can’t beat the shit out of most men and the men doing this know it and don’t care about anything except physical domination. That said, a good knee or kick to the groin will do the trick, no add beating required.
Not even addressing ridiculous male chauvinism, weapons exist, also element of surprise, guns, etc
Not allowed to carry weapons, mace etc. where I live. What should my 5'4" Wife do in this situation?
Pepper spray. Seriously. It's not expensive and it should be legal. Way easier to use and no permanent damage either. Just press the button and spray those fuckers.
Yeah, would absolutely ask them to carry it, but again, illegal in my Nanny-Country of Australia. Sucks to be a vulnerable person here, with minimal ways to defend yourself.
How the fuck is pepper spray illegal? What is the fine for carrying it?
A first‑time offence carries a maximum fine of $33,300 or up to 2 years imprisonment. Repeat offences attract higher fines and mandatory custodial sentences. Courts consider the intent, quantity, and whether the spray was used in a public place. Even possession of an empty canister can be prosecuted as “possession of a prohibited weapon.”
Yeah...
Uhmmm what the fuck?! Yeah I got no idea then. I assume tasers are banned as well. Does your law even allow self defense then? Maybe a walking stick/cane that can be used for defense?
Self defence is allowed, with "appropriate force". No weapons to deliver that force though, including tasers.
Yeah that's just fucked. If you're a small woman or even a small man that is weaksr than the average man you need a force multiplier AKA weapon to be able to even reach appropriate force. Glad we're allowed to own pepper spray where I live.
Sharp object under jaw pointing upwards. Use both hands and full force.
Alternatively, bite down as hard as you can on the throat.
Stores sell knives and other sharp or pointy objects. Or blunt objects.
I dunno man, be creative. Maybe panic and shit your pants because woman helpless and weak and inferior to man uwu 🎻
You legitimately can't carry anything resembling a weapon in Australia, sharp or blunt. In my state, brandishing a blunt object like a cricket bat can get you jail time.
So I'm not asking to stir the pot, I seriously fear for my Wife and Daughter's safety, and I can't do anything about it. I guess societal pressure on these predators is the only tool we can use here.
There's too many sick fucks like this all over the world. If we lived in a country with more relaxed laws, they would both be packing at least mace, preferably a pistol.
Not even sorry to say, the INSTANT I feel threatened, my tiny ass foot is going up your dick hole as forcibly as possible. I am fairly small, don't often feel worried about that... but you get in my space I'm going to bring you down to my height. Or the floor. Preferably the floor.
Disgusting people need to be afraid of reactions again.
This is how perverts and men who try to intimidate women should be treated by everyone. Perverts, and billionaires.
Need to bring back hat pins.
This is a friendly reminder that you can buy hat pins at any well stocked sewing or craft store.
Let this shit happen in front of me. There is no way I'm not interfering. I don't mind going to jail for beating the brakes off of a bully.
Our society has broken down to the point that we legitimately have to bring back mob justice. I'm so ashamed to be a human right now.
