quote:What? So you are cool with beating the shite out kf women then? I guess that is your stance. I for one, am against both. And wish the President would have had the balls to do the right thing in both cases
at the people who care about the violence now so they can excuse the racism.

Hell, I don't care about either since neither affects my life and I didn't know any of the people involved.
I don't see why anyone cares about either actually.

Except this has more to do with the fact that joe Mixon is a football player. We aren't even talking about this if it was some normal person, cause that normal person would probably be in jail or something

They get the same elevation above the law as cops do.

Not at all but do you think this comment

Typical white guilt BS. God forbid a white person says something profane or racist, off with their head. Black person says the same thing except about crackers or honkeys or happens to slap a female around its swept under the rug or a slap on the wrist.
is actually worried about violence against women or is he just bitching about people calling out racism?

If Mixon had done this in November of this year, he would have been kicked out of school too. Remember the social media mob was loving them some violence against women this year. He got lucky he did it last year when nobody seemed to mind beating on women

No one should care about these events?

quote:it has everything to do with hI'm being a football player. Plus, what the SAE kids did was caught on video. If tomorrow, there was a video on the Internet of me beating thr shite out of some girl, I would definitely be in trouble. Because I'm A) not a football player and B) my actions are on video. Mixon was suspended for a year, and now he's let back...because he's good

Me? I don't particularly care. And hasn't affected my life. But I don't encompass everyone.
A blanket statement that no one should care about these news stories is a little much, as they both are hot button issues in the US (and world) today. Violence against women particularly with regards to athletes. Racism with regards to everything lately.
Just saying that these are issues that many Americans have chosen to become vocal about. Hence there are probably a lot of people caring.

Dude my life would honestly be the same if I never knew about 9/11, but that doesn't mean I shouldn't care about it

I'm not a fan of internet warriors, the people who search for someone to attack in the name of social morality.
It is a mask, a fake presentation for others so that they get the satisfaction of believing people think they are socially conscious.
quote:I'm of the group of people who believe both acts are despicable, but one definitely didn't warrant the level of punishment, while the other warranted much more.
Just saying that these are issues that many Americans have chosen to become vocal about. Hence there are probably a lot of people caring.
But like I said, in the end, neither instance affected me or my life so the outcomes matter little.

Legislation affecting all of our lives was passed, our country entered into a war that is costing us a lot of money, and I could list even more.
If you didn't know about 9/11, you were still greatly affected.
