What is biting the curb?

Biting the curb, also known as curb stomping, refers to a violent and brutal act where someone is forced to place their mouth on a curb (the edge of a sidewalk) and then is stomped on the head, causing severe injuries or even death. This act is infamous for its depiction in popular culture, most notably in the film "American History X," where it serves as a shocking and graphic example of racial violence and extreme aggression.

The act is illegal and considered a violent assault. It carries severe legal repercussions for the perpetrator, including charges of aggravated assault or murder. The term has become synonymous with extreme brutality and is often cited in discussions about hate crimes and senseless violence.

Curb stomping is not just physically devastating but also serves as a symbolic act of degradation and dehumanization. It’s important to remember that any act of violence is a serious issue and should be addressed with appropriate legal and social interventions to prevent harm and promote safety in communities.
