What was said? Was it disrespectful or just the assailant's macho perception/excuse to be violent?

Is this another example of the neurological studies' of the male brain results? ie the default solution in the male frontal lobes is violence in answer to ... well, anything?

I do wish those studies and their results were front page news. Perhaps society would re-evaluate the idea that the male of the species can be trusted with ... well, anything.

No, this is alcohol related. No question about it.
What you suggested is the height of ...well, bigotry.
I'm sorry about how your father treated you.

This is alcohol related, and it IS a male thing. I assure you there are many more assaults male related than female. It's not bigotry, it's reality

and lets also get real about Milpitas. I assure you there are more people from Milpitas, San Jose, Oakland etc who get into fights than there are from Atherton, Peidmont and Palo Alto. It is a race thing. It's not bigotry, it's reality
