Woman jumps out of truck and repeatedly assaults two lesbians. Man jumps out of truck and assaults lesbians. Man arrested. Woman was not, even though she demanded to be arrested. Damn, that male straight white male privilege is a bitch.

Why they didn't charge all of them and give them ALL their day in court,

Jane and Mary said that the attack actually was started by a female companion of Malloy, who … hit them with a handbag. That woman … has not been charged with any crime at this point. … In fact, Malloy’s companion filed her own report claiming that Jane and Mary are the ones who did the attacking. “The woman the next day was saying, ‘We were, in fact, the victims,’” said BPD spokesperson Officer James Kenneally. But, he said, no charges have been filed against Jane and Mary.

Four people get involved in a brawl, three of them are female, one is male. Who's going to jail?

“There are conflicting stories about what happened,” Kenneally said. “One person [Malloy] was arrested. He’ll have his day in court, and we’ll go from there.”

Well, we can't really tell what happened, so let's just arrest the man and call it a day.

Jamaica Plain is a well-known gay neighborhood in Boston. If the attackers don't like seeing gay behavior, maybe they should move to Topeka, Kansas and join the Westboro Baptist Church.

PS: this is less about men's rights than it is about the stupidity of the Boston Police Department and district attorney.

Um, the woman hit the lesbians with a handbag. The man beat them with his fists, chased them, and possibly pulled out a weapon. I'm genuinely surprised that you think these acts are equivalent.

That guy punched a woman in the face twice, flashed a weapon, and then chased her down the street. Why are you all complaining about him getting arrested? The woman was not charged because the severity of her offense is on a much lower level. Swinging a handbag<Punching in the face twice. You all have fucked up values.

leave it to r/mensrights to use an anti-lesbian hate crime as an example of female privilege . . . (palm --> face)

What did you expect when the law favors women? Fairness? Consistency? Impartiality?
