>>510370008The meta of the context is that there has been an uptick in raging retards with no impulse control and being a victim in this situation is 50000x more likely than being a victim of a random criminal (robbery, theft, so on).
For real, people in general are much more uncivil and will beat you up over slights, you taking their ex, or just saying the wrong thing to them.
The legal system partly engendered this by accommodating hot heads and giving them special status, creating a moral hazard. They are viewed as less responsible for their actions because of "crimes of passion" were committed in the "heat of the moment". If this would have been a fist fight and victim won, the victim could be found liable instead because he provoked him with mean words.
