I did, I think there was something missing. Whoever provoked it deserves the brunt of the consequence. The QB deserves what he gets, I'm not debating that. I'm debating the woman walking away free if she provoked it.
I personally don't hit women, but if one is going beserk on me, I will try to restrain.
Damn this conversation of that Florida State QB has drawn on too far, but I guess I'll throw in my pennies as well.
If you think woman are 100% above striking no matter if they are assaulting you then you must also believe that women are the lesser sex and should be home builders instead of equal workers. This might be considered chivalrous, but is definitely sexist.
If you agree 100% with dude Mike Tyson's Punchout-ing the girl then you have violent tendencies, but aren't sexist.
I, personally, don't agree with the guy punching her at the point he did because he could have attempted to remove himself from the situation-- or never rudely push in to begin with--, but if that woman had followed him still going at him? Then I would have been fine with him defending himself. I believe the woman should also be charged since equal rights and all that crap is so big now days.
What he did was bad but that doesn't absolve the girl of starting the whole damn incident. When you do something stupid and physically violent with alcohol involved generally you get as good as you give.
Thank God Dooley is gone. That article shows more of how much he was in over his head. Thank you Dooley for hiring Sunseri. If he hired a better DC, then he could possibly still be here.
Lock the FSU guy up. I don't necessarily think the girl was blameless (this is open to some interpretation), but I do think he stepped far over the line of what was appropriate physical force in that situation. That was disgusting.
Having said that (and it doesn't necessarily apply to the specific scenario here... just a general comment), I do think there's a culture at some bars that women can get as physical and violent as they want with no repercussions. I've seen it myself. I'm NOT suggesting that they should be blasted in the face whenever they do so. But there's a social tendency to blame the man in any altercation between a man and a woman, and that isn't the case nearly as often as we're led to believe. When a woman initiates violence, she should be punished just like anybody else.
Probably a discussion for a different thread though. So I'll leave it at that.
