    Not for nothing but I’d take that like a badge of honor.

    Like getting the shit beat out of me by Minerva McGonagall. I’d let her. She could beat me up all night long. No doubt about it, absolute badass. Like when Molly Weasley killed Bellatrix. Idgaf how evil you are or how many curse words you know…nobody fucks with Ginny.

        Suck another dick.

        Very few franchises the size of HP have multiple badass female characters. Maybe Arya Stark and Brienne of Tarth?

          I do really like Arya and Brienne (hell, throw in the Sand Snakes too) but oof bro, common potterhead L, further reinforcing the fact that y’all are incapable of reading any text that isn’t the most mainstream, mid-tier piece of writing ever to exist.

      Ginny only needed the help because she was only a 6th year. That girl had a wicked bat bogey hex by the time she was year 2.

    16 THOUSAND citations.

    She’s approximately 260 times more successful than me, AND kicked this guy’s ass. Fucking hell, I’m so envious right now.

    Ohh! Research citations!
    For some reason I read that as police citations and was wondering how the hell she got so dangerously based.

      The way the post title is worded totally leads here. She’s presented as “the woman kicking the guys ass” - and what kind of citations do you get for kicking ass?

      Either way incredibly based.

      Same here. I read it as: This lady has had 16,000 traffic citations and the driving gods miss selected “kill” in the drop down list when choosing her punishment and accidentally gave her Kung fu superpowers.

        More studies are required before we come to any certain conclusions. We require concrete evidence…and rebar evidence…maybe carbon fiber evidence…or…

      He got off easy. He was this close to having a copy of “Braunwald’s Heart Diease” slammed right onto his left ventricle. Watch out for that 11th edition. It’s a doozy.

    Doctor of medicine, so there’s a greater than zero chance she knows exactly where to hit him. Good on her, though - people need to take a stand.

    She’s medically trained, so she knows where to hit him. In addition, there’s a lack of barrier to entering the physical space of strangers and physically touching them just in general. That barrier almost doesn’t exist for medical. The rest of the world, middle of the bell curve, hesitates.

    And if she’s done direct patient care at any point in her career, there’s a good chance she has no patience left for shenanigans.

    Did they add a stun gun sound effect to that video? Seems way too loud and crisp from that distance

      Very good consideration. She did publicly acknowledge it on BlueSky, so I’ll take that as permission.

      To me, Kyle Rittenhouse trial has to be the most American thing ever, grabbing your assault rifle and heading into a heated situation for no reason whatsoever than that predictably resulting in a death and getting off scott free, that’s something that can only happen in the USA

        Everything that led up to the killings was fucking heinous, but in the end, a jury of his peers saw the video evidence and deemed it self defense. I’ve watched the videos and I agree.

        “He shouldn’t have been there.”, isn’t a legal doctrine. Still, I’m surprised the prosecutor couldn’t have found some angle there. Isn’t there some, “looking for a fight” idea?

        If I go down to my MAGA neighbor’s house, kick on his door, talk shit (non-physically threatening shit) and he attacks me, I wouldn’t feel too safe shooting him. IANAL, but I know the prosecutors were, so I have to bow to their professional judgement.

        And whatever happened to his mom or uncle or whoever buying him a gun? I know it was across state lines, but still, the purchase in itself was legal, and you can certainly gift a gun. There was a law clearly broken there, I think Rittenhouse being underage in that state for that weapon? Why wasn’t the purchaser hung from the fucking rafters?!

        What is perhaps more heinous is that the little fucker is able to milk his notoriety. He should be shunned by both the anti-gun and pro-gun crowd, no one should give two shits to hear him speak. (He is shunned among liberal gun nuts like me.)

          Sorry, but, umm…you are aware that “gun nut” is not a compliment, right? Nor a neutral term. It’s pretty directly an insult towards people who oppose common sense gun regulation à la Australia. Because they are “nuts”, meaning crazy.

            In my area of California while the crazy element is still present it generally means they mod their weapons in particularly volatile or weird ways, maybe they have an obsession with a particular era of weapons as well. Honestly it’s a pretty informal term where the only useful measurement is that most folks who could be described as gun nuts probably press their own ammo.

            So it can be a neutral term depending on region at least, either that or my Redneck is showing. Frankly speaking though I have seen folks (usually yuppies) throw fits because folks have either rare or “scary” looking firearms, apparently there was an incident at a gun range relatively near me where some stupid bitch called the cops cause a dude pulled out a Browning Automatic Rifle.

          I think we can rest easy on that. Every time you hear about him now it’s just a laughingstock. I don’t think he’s in a great financial situation, and has completely failed at public appearances so he isn’t going to get political power. He’s more of a painted pony that the repubs can trot out every now and then.
