Rejected Accountability for Violence

By | April 14, 2025

[April 14, 2025]  Look, this is the face of a young woman who committed battery on an innocent woman but has rejected accountability for her violence. A little over a week ago, on a Harlem street, media personality Savannah Craven Antao was struck in the face by an assailant because of an argument over Savannah’s pro-life view on abortion.

Rejected Accountability for Violence

Brianna J. Rivers, 30, rejected accountability

When a culture tolerates violence, we are all in trouble, regardless of our political or ideological position. We already see this mentality that accepts violence as an acceptable form of protest among those vandalizing Teslas and attacking Tesla drivers across the nation. They justify their actions against “Nazi Elon Musk” by cloaking themselves as victims and moral crusaders against “fascism.”  Some in the justice system agreed with this way of thinking and let them walk without criminal charges.

For those of us who’ve had to weather high-stress situations where our values and decisions are questioned, we know how difficult it is to control our temper. We rightly call these acts of violence and destruction what they are “moral cowardice.”  We know that for the past few years, there has been a spike in violence, in part because those in the justice system refused to prosecute many crimes.

The interview between the prep, Brianna J. Rivers, 30, and Savannah turned violent when the two were discussing the topic of abortion and related topics.  Savannah’s film crew videotaped the incident. A week after the assault took place, Ms Rivers was arrested by the NYPD for hitting Savannah in the face.

What many of us will find surprising is Rivers posted lengthy comments on Facebook “validating” why she needed to do it. She claimed she was goaded into violence against Savannah (a member of the pro-life advocacy group Live Action).  But people don’t get a free pass for assaulting someone just because they say things you don’t agree with. Violence runs counter to our core values. That’s the purpose of words and debate.

Ms Rivers’ defense against the charges being brought in the leftist New York City might work. New York is notorious for releasing violent people if the “cause is just.”

    Why is it that Liberals are constantly acting on their emotions? I know they swallow the leftist propaganda without using their two brain cells, but come on. Why strike out at a person who simply has a different point of view? Emotional immaturity? Stupidity? Encouraged by politicians? Seems like all the above. All I can say is to be careful when talking to a Liberal, for many have simply lost control of their mental state and are probably taking medication for stress and – if there were such a thing – for their stupidity.

    This whole episode and how it is being portrayed in the media (as not a hate crime) just goes to show how we don’t cold “certain people” accountable. Rivers has never been told “no” in her life and now her privilege is showing and she doesn’t like it. Tough. Pull up your pants, girl.

    I see this kind of thing happen all the time at Leftist “rallies” when someone is there who doesn’t take their BS. They are prone to violence and yet no one speaks up and there are zero consequences because of liberal judges and DAs.

    Unacceptable! Never tolerate this kind of behavior nor the justification for it, either.

    I guess I’m not too surprised. There are many among us Americans who cannot tolerate ideas outside their narrow view of the world and are given permission to use “any means necessary” to impose their neo-Marxist, Progressive view on the world. This is what we’ve come to. This woman is just one example of many. And, Gen. Satterfield is giving us more to illustrate how evil and insidious this kind of immoral behavior can be. Folks, don’t tolerate the intolerant. We all know that the media and Democrats are encouraging this evil. Recognize it for what it is and always be willing to stand for good.

    Brianna Rivers is in deep doodoo and there’s not much she or her lawyers can do about it. She’s now being stupid about what happened by going on Facebook and telling the world everything — that will be used against her. Kids, don’t do Democrat.

      We also need to pray for the soul of this deranged lady who is willing to hit someone just because they believe in saving the life of unborn children. This Ms. Rivers is lost but it is never to late to come to God and repent your sins. I can only pray for her and wish her to reform her ways and learn to control her hatred for those who are not following the Woke/Progressive ideology of death.

        Yes, that is correct but we must also, kindly and with respect, work to change them using our persuasive language and understanding.

    Thank you sir for highlighting, again, the Leftist rejection of accountability for their actions. This woman said in her FB post that people were calling her a Democrat but never said what her affiliation is.

    The source of the hatred of the man who firebombed Pa Gov Shapiro’s home may be undetermined. But his action plan follows that of the Leftist MO, which is encouraged (or not condemned) by the Democrat leadership: personal violence and fire bombing.

      The Governor’s mansion should be a hammer-free zone. No more HAMMERS.

        Ice Man, you da man. Ever since the hammer attack on Paul Pelosi I have been waiting for calls for common-sense hammer controls along with a nationwide database of licensed hammer owners to help protect us from these atrocities. /sarc

    This Ms. Rivers chick is a classic delusional woman. I listened to her Facebook post and that says it all.

      Oops, here’s the main quote from the article:
      “The Luigi Mangione phenomenon is disgusting. He has many thousands of fans, most of them young women, who applaud his murder of Brian Thompson. A large amount of money has been raised for his defense, and his appearances in court are greeted by throngs of admirers. Mangione’s killing of Thompson is seen as a political murder, much like the assassination of Abraham Lincoln by John Wilkes Booth, only in this case, the murder was committed to advance a cause that is popular on the Left–socialized medicine.”

      Good catch, Paulette. Yes, indeed, we are seeing an uptick in leftist, progressive violence. There are many reasons for it, but I put a good amount of blame on Democrat Party politicians who inflame us with over-the-top rhetoric.
