      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. A small child walked out w/ a keychain - she took it back. He punched her in the facepic.twitter.com/UzGyAkNp2F

      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.

          I'm not going to excuse his punching her, but he didn't "walk into" anything. Maybe, she didn't mean to catch him in the neck, but she was trying to push him away. The contact was not accidental. He doesn't move more than an inch as she's doing that.

          So, not "exactly." I agree he overreacted and should never have punched a woman like this. I agree he probably wouldn't have reacted this way to a white woman. I'm just saying her behavior is pretty bad. Getting in his face, pointing finger in face and pushing. Don't defend that.

          She hit him first. She got back what she deserves.
