Mister P ignores the circumstances so he can make a political point against gender equality. It's disingenuous and he knows it.

So I saw the video of the freshman FSU QB fight with the girl at the bar.

It is a bit of a double standard that she was not also charged.

Turnpike Lane

she should have been charged. he's a monster though. just terrible.

Exactly, you never hit a woman.

you dont punch a woman back

Cougarealist

7/7/15 10:12am

How about nobody punches anybody?

Mister P

7/7/15 10:12am

While I agree with you completely, it creates a double standard with all of this

IMO a woman who takes it to that level deserves what she gets ...

Deserves what she gets? Wow. Just, wow.

True, but she should have been charged with assault as well.

What if the woman is Ms. Jenner?

Busiturtle

Or Hope Solo? I bet she could take out a bunch of CBers

Your argument is that two wrongs make a right? I thought this logical flaw was

bluebloodedcoug

7/7/15 10:15am

No, my argument is that she should be facing charges as well. You disagree?

Mister P

7/7/15 10:16am

IDK. While it is likely she committed some crime, I think most agree that a

as an athlete that specializes in a contact sport, you could argue he had the

You could also argue she took the first swing and he defended himself.

Mister P

7/7/15 10:18am

I don't think you can argue that at all. C'mon. She presented no threat to him

runnincoug

7/7/15 10:23am

No threat in what way? She could have absolutely given him bruises

kimdaddy35

7/7/15 11:01am

Watch that video again and rethink your statement. Really?

runnincoug

7/7/15 11:10am

If she couldn't reach him how did she make contact with his face?

kimdaddy35

7/7/15 11:19am

Not to mention the kick to the groin area prior to her punch

ManicBlue

7/7/15 11:28am

Watching it again ... yes she can reach him. No she wasn't a threat.

Are you serious? You think that football players are naturally better

Did he punch her, or did he slap her? This makes a little difference in my mind.

Hard to tell if it was a closed fist or not but he gave her a bloody nose

SanDiegoCoug

7/7/15 10:32am

I would have no problem if she also got charged.

mpfunk

7/7/15 10:24am

Absolutely he should be. As should she. Nobody is allowed to hit anybody

Mister P

7/7/15 10:26am

No mercy! No discretion by officers or prosecutors! One step out of line and

This is the problem with Mister P.'s approach---you need to have room for human

runnincoug

7/7/15 10:57am

Exactly. Arrests, enforcement, and charges should be circumstance specific.

bluebloodedcoug

7/7/15 11:01am

What if her punch caught him in the eye with her fingernail? He might lose that

Mister P

7/7/15 11:06am

So she should be charged based on what could have but didn't happen?

7/7/15 11:10am

Barkley injured KJ by hugging him too hard. Should we assume every hug has the

runnincoug

7/7/15 11:15am

His charge was a misdemeanor due to the circumstances

zuxvon

7/7/15 10:51am

The guy is screwed because he is a guy

Remigius

7/7/15 10:56am

Agree, the irony is that it would not have led to charges

zuxvon

7/7/15 11:04am

I don't feel bad for either person in this case

Remigius

7/7/15 11:25am

There has GOT to be a category for this discussion that I have ignored. I hope.

The bigger issue is that he made his team and University look bad.

Why does either option have to be mutually exclusive? Both actions...
