Even drunk, that's some messed up stuff. Physically assaulted a woman, and enough so to leave bruises/marks. There is no rationalization that makes that okay. Especially the kind of assault it categorically is. Last edited by Librarian; 04-07-2018 at 12:04 PM.. |

It's kind of in the same category of people who seem to think that if they want something, it MUST be a good thing that is good for them, screw what anyone else says. Inhibitions are not a bad thing that only bad people need to fake being good. Let's not bully the guy for acting like a complete idiot/asshole while not in his right mind. Like, yell at him for drinking irresponsibly, sure, but let's not judge his full character just by what he did while not fully in control. Unless you've never wanted to do something wrong ever, regardless of whether you stopped yourself. In which case, go ahead, throw the first stone, Immanuel. |

It was more a general complaint about a meme, the actual idea proposed by Dawkins, that I see going around rather than a direct defense of the guy.
He's still a moron, just not necessarily a total scumbag. Does... does that make sense? Legitimate question, I have trouble communicating ideas sometimes. |

Eh... I find this idea that "good people don't want to do bad things/Only bad people want to do bad things on ANY level" to be really... off-putting.

It doesn't matter if he was in his right mind, he did something that is unacceptable. If this was "Aoki shot a guy in self defence" then he'd still get arrested but there's a layer of sympathy. But no. He groped a woman's breasts and grabbed her with such force she got hurt. We aren't 'bullying' someone for this, he did a terrible thing and he deserves what he has coming to him. You can't compare this to someone who has enough constraint.

You're acting like that excuses any of it. He should have known to drink less, could have had someone hang out with him to keep him in check or ask for a taxi or some shit. What he did was terrible and again, no excuse. Because this isn't an excuse, it's a pitiful attempt which is the equivalent to "WELL YOU AREN'T A WRITER HOW DARE YOU SAY SWORD ART ONLINE IS BADLY WRITTEN" in this situation

All the drunkenness does is lessen his culpability for the offense. That’s it. It doesn’t absolve him. |
