    This is at Juns Beauty Supply in Tulsa, OK. The one of North Peoria. This is the 2nd time an Asian owner of a Black beauty supply shop has physically attacked a Black woman in the past week.

        Kings do not make excuses for this man punching this sister. She was walking away and made a gesture that he walked into. Then he assaulted her. Bet he and any who justify this would've controlled that temper if it wasn't a black female. Smh

        It is imperative that we focus on the true indignation’s against people of color that happen daily and not water down the very real problems by defending acts of ignorance

        This wasnt an act of ignorance. All the jerk had to do was recover whatever it was the child took accidentally. I'm sure the mom wasn't defending that, likely upset by his attitude. She did NOT assault him. He did not have to draw blood from her. This was not ok or acceptable.

        But she attack him first. Not every video that comes your way should be giving your attention. I don’t agree with him throwing punches back at her, but she swing at him first.

        No they can’t sister. They would have done her a lot worse and bragged about it. If she was anything but black none of these eunuchs would have done anything. If it’s ever my daughter I’m going to get a bat and have a pillow fight with your head

        Had you and your daughter been Black, that would have been an immediate 911 call. Probably followed by an arrest. Thanks for being honest.

        I mentioned to my husband the time (years ago) that I called a cop a c@*t. Not a dang thing happened to my white ass. I don't believe the outcome would have been the same if I was a POC.

        Actually, she was walking AWAY and threw hand her up in a morning to me, that indicated she was done arguing and HE walked into her hand. He then hit her deliberately.

        Exactly! Her hand went up in a dismissive way (back turned) barely brushed his shoulder & he closed fist busted her mouth because he lost control. I can’t believe I see folks defending him on here, but then again we’re living in a parallel universe in 2018!

        First of all, if she returned the item... there was no reason for him to follow her out of the store. That was the end of it. It's really crazy that our men will not stand up for us.
