This is all funny until you do it. Trying this kind of shit in 2009 as I was starting to fully transition got me a full swing baseball bat to my hip. I laid there for maybe 30 mins before I could crawl to a phone.
From a safety standpoint, please don't do this. Just flip them off as you walk away and then vote as if your life depends on it, because it just may.
I'm sorry that happened to you but I appreciate you warning people of the dangers of being confrontational with these people.
It's not worth it. You won't change their mind, people nearby aren't going to clap for you, you're just unnecessarily putting yourself in harms way because many of these people are not kind, they will respond aggressively.
And to add, they will only fight if they have an unfair advantage (more people, better weapons, etc). It's better to defend your own ground if necessary.
