What you are saying here is quite simply, "men get attacked because they put themselves in situations where they are more likely to get attacked."
you are completely excusing violence against men just because other men are doing it. That is discrimation. You are discriminating against men by saying that they are the reason they are attacked.
We are, in this thread, discussing discrimination (well, most of us are, anyway). Originally, it was about discriminating males. I said that males beating males can't really be discrimination, because, you see, it is inherently impossible for one group of people to discriminate itself. At least that's what I understand.
Also, if guys get drunk/do drugs/use weapons on each other, that's horrible, but still not discrimination. If anything, it's stupidity.
Anyway, I don't expect you to understand my argument the third time around when you didn't get it the first two times.

Still: I did not excuse any violence. Not violence against women, nor violence against men. If you read that in my post, I'd say you should go have some reading classes.
I said that this is a case of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Not discrimination, but bad luck. Not topic of this thread, though.
And, also, you're right about one thing: it's not one of the things I care too much about. I didn't even care too much about when it happened to me. Put a plaster on my forehead, swore and cried for some time, shrugged it off as bad luck, took the same way home the next day (with the phone in hand and the emergency number already punched in, though )
So why should I give a rat's ass if some drunk guys smash in each other's head?
