A tight argument using this to point out "victim blaming" has made a couple of libtard heads explode. He (or she) did nothing illegal although we may find it foolish or even provocative. Trying to rip off her string bikini (or grab his gun) is an illegal act of violence. Both justify self defense. They really have nothing to say.
Someone trying to grab another mans gun probably has malicious intent, a man trying to strip off a woman's string bikini wants the goods which are being advertised, they aren't equivalent at all.
Stealing advertised goods is malicious. So, trying to steal those goods is malicious intent.
Legally they are the same, attempting to remove property from the immediate possession of the holder. Legally, both are assaults and justify self defense. ('sploding libtard brain)
