That's priceless. The attacker strikes first. The victim responds and the attacker says they are retaliating for the defense attack.

Well that's one way of wearing a helmet

There is no issue that separates the believers from the hypocrites as quickly as the issue of Palestine.

It can’t be that complicated to wear a helmet correctly.

I feel like the directions are pretty straightforward
