Wah, the people in this café sounded so lame and mean... Even in the greatly intolerant city of Paris, people would never have held such a contest of meanness, out loud and all. You did what was the human thing to do. You should be proud of yourself, and even more as it was an "unthanked" act of courage.

It's easy to think "this is wrong", it takes a massive amount of guts to do something about it.

Thanks for being a stand up guy (pun sorta intended) gmartinfan! It does take a special breed to stand for whats right, especially if it's not the popular choice. I'm sure one other person in that cafe thought the same thing, but never had the guts to act on it. Hopefully by your example one person will now have the courage to also stand up in the future. People like you keep honor and decency alive to see another day. :coolbeans:

I bet if you'd have decked a few of the twats, they would have taken more notice then. I have learned that violence gets people's attention like nothing else.

why? morality is objective and hence some people are more moral than others... but that also means that a fuck ton of people have to create
subjective morality and subjective morality depends on the group... the group's morality is about power ... not virtue

so you can be all alone in the truth... but other moral people will see it as the superior course... your heart was not defeated but your group
power

DAMN RIGHT! People who make fun of disabilities often can't be reasoned with. The only thing they understand is an ass whipping. My dad was disabled and Gmartin's post really hit close to home. If I was in Gmartin's situation I'd have came out swinging the minute they didn't apologize. It'd be worth a month in jail for the pleasure of roughing them up.

I mean, how fucking LOW can you get eh? So....this is how 'hip' people get their fucking kicks eh? So, this is what the Incel guy must become in order to be 'socialy acceptable' - a cunt who stands about pretending he's tough and all fucking that eh? Whilst insulting/belittling a person who is disabled.

Well, though it won't get me laid, I will REMAIN socially UN-accepable. Behavior like this is lower than fucking whale shit.

Somehow that teeny emote translates to a Happy Cat dressed like Link doing the Item Catch pose, in my mind at least.

When people start giving you lip back you pretty much have to troll them.

There is no point in expecting the unreasonable and utterly reprehensible to respond to appeals to reason or morality.

Yeah, it sounds great and you could get away from it in the 1950-60's, maybe. Depends on where and when, of course.

You spend some time in jail now, and it will be on your record for life, and gmartinfan doesn't need that kind of headache at his age.

Leave that stuff to people in their teens and 20's, who don't as yet know any better, IMHO. Sometimes you really do have
to just walk away, unless you are in real danger of losing your life. At that point, its quite reasonable to use deadly force.

These assholes that made fun if a disabled person deserve to be hit by a car and break their own legs. You stood up against a bunch of brainless pricks, very admirable, I've would have don the same, however, if they would not stop and would make fun of me then I would consider punching one of the assholes in the place their brains are supposed to be! :evil: Although I hate violence such scum does not understand language. Police should take issues like this more seriously. The disabled men should sue the pricks, as they showed no respect and lowered his dignity. Actions like this can and should be punished by law! Hate to see that people can be so unkind, this is prevalent through society, I believe people where nicer in the past, my generation consists of many scum with no moral compass to what is good and bad in how to treat people. If I am ever going to have children, from day one am I going to teach them to be kind and to stend up relentlessly against such assholes!
