    Why is your mom and sister okay with your brother-in-law's brother flashing them. Why was your brother-in-law not doing anything about it? Sorry your family didn't support you dude.

    I applaud your action good sir. I also think the use of homophobic slurs is disgusting and your an a$$hole.

    Also, did you ever date Halle Berry?

    Were you wrong? Yeah. Would I have done the same thing? Probably.

    Hindsight is 20/20, obviously, but you really should have confronted him about the situation first. Told him if he did anything like that again, there was going to be a problem.

    This

    Your brother in law is the POS in this situation

    As far as punching the guy, he probably deserved more than that, but not sure if this made the situation better.

    Lol. Really sorry about the homophobic slurs, I was still pretty pissed when I wrote that. That's what I don't understand. Family knew before I did and still did nothing thats why i think i got desperate and reacted the way I did. I got a straight from Mexico type of family so maybe they're a little weary of the law. Who knows.

    there is a time and place for everything, so yes you were wrong could of picked a different time to be a dick and attempt to solve problems by fighting. Perhaps wait until the weekend to try and be all macho? as oppose to fcking up thanksgiving for all.

    The irony here is that while he has no right to flash anyone, he still has a full and absolute right to defend himself. Had you mentioned the "d" or "k" word while you were in the process of attacking him, he could have conceivably punched your ticket without being arrested for anything. You were wrong and should have called the cops.

    Respect to you sir. I would've whopped his ass myself if i was in your situation. At least everyone knows now the situation.

    Also, I am given to understand that your brother-in-law's brother is in fact, also, your brother-in-law.

    I guess so. He got what he deserves. I just could not see myself "talking out" with this dude. Someone that does something like that IMO is beyond reason.

    I can sit here and say you should've been rational and handled it differently, but I know I would've done the same as you OP if I was in that situation. At least you're owning up to whatever might come your way due to your actions, respect that.

    My little sister is 14. When my mom told me a out this it got me pissed, but when I heard it from my little sister, it just took me over the edge.

    A lot of people that do that type of stuff are sick, mentally off. They can't stop themselves. Hitting him might make you feel good but it won't stop him from doing it again. You should just make sure he's out of that house and is reported to the police. Fist fights are for junior high.

    Oh ok, i thought your little sister was the married one, who was just younger than you...but there's 2 sisters...should have just called the cops and had your mom and sis file charges first....if the guy is just sick he may not respond to beatings.

    We have learned to tolerate the intolerable.
    There may have been a better way but ... Something had to be done.
    Pretending it isnt happening is bull****

    What a terrible situation. Violence was not the right or levelheaded thing to do here, but I understand why you did it for your family.

    Although your BIL's brother allegedly committed multiple felonies, you assaulted him. Given what you've said about the BIL doing little and your family being relatively mum, I hope you face no legal troubles.

    It would be a good idea to delete this thread now that you've vented and know others would've done the same.
