The jogger was a douche, but a fucking MANHNUNT? Really!? My god, freedom doesn't mean what it used to in many places. The proper response is to call him an asshole and move on with life.

I don't have a link, but recently Australians were admonished by their government not to wear a crucifix or other outward display of Christianity to avoid offending, and provoking violence from, Muslims.
No comment of what, if any, the penalty would be.

I thought this thread was humor like, "Let's go find a man in Australia. Ha! Ha!"
But maybe that still applies.
Must be nice to live in a society where the worst thing you worry about is having someone yell out an insult at you. The horrors.
"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

How does having "bad words" said to one make him "a victim?" I'm sure you could hear worse in pretty much any Melbourne bar after the sun goes down.
How about growing a little bit of a hide? Where and when I come from, being able to absorb an insult unperturbed is a sign of maturity/adulthood. After all, why should I care about what other people think?

It would seem that the leftist "elite" communists want to criminalize all conservative dissent via speech codes. They flood their countries with 3rd worlders and push every crazy leftist agenda, especially LGBTQ+, and if you saying anything against it you are charged with hate speech and jailed.
The goal is always to eliminate conservative opposition and implement "elite" communism where the "elites" keep their money and run everything and the average person owns nothing and lives in public housing and takes public transportation. It's not like the Davos set hasn't said this out loud...

Its amazing to me that the cops down under (and in the UK) actually enforce this stupidity. If I was required to enforce this crap, I would quit and be a Greeter at Wal-Mart.
