Violence as an appropriate — and encouraged — response to whatever they deem offensive. There is no turning the other cheek or nonviolent protest as activist leaders used to espouse.

This Myles Garrett issue is going to get nasty. He is doubling down on accusing

DJROSS

Assault him physically, then assault his character.

Mister P

2/17/20 8:18am

At least he's consistent.

Who freaking cares? Hearing a slur doesn’t give you open season to assault someone.

Indy Coug

2/17/20 8:26am

The fact some people use this as an excuse is gross

YIsForBrigham

2/17/20 8:27am

It's because we've turned it into something it isn't.

Belboz

2/17/20 8:29am

What is it and what have we turned it into? Can’t think of a worse thing

The Dude Abides

2/17/20 9:08am

Name calling doesn't excuse physical assault.

Belboz

2/17/20 9:34am

That word goes well beyond “name calling”.

The Dude Abides

2/17/20 9:47am

Which word are we talking about? Racist or the N-word (or some other language)?

gmj81

2/17/20 9:52am

So does it justify a physically violent response or not?

Indy Coug

2/17/20 9:53am

I think any person who uses the N word toward another person deserves

The Dude Abides

2/17/20 9:59am

Ah yes, instead of working to diminish the outrage culture, let's fully embrace and celebrate it.

Byron McNertney

2/17/20 10:00am

It’s not a normal insult. It says way more than other words.

The Dude Abides

2/17/20 10:05am

Dude....put down the shovel...and walk away.

TheHop

2/17/20 10:12am

Tell me where I’m wrong.

The Dude Abides

2/17/20 10:14am

All I can say is one will get you into an argument and most likely lower peoples

DJROSS

2/17/20 10:22am

You're wrong.

GigantorCat

2/17/20 11:00am

Violence isn't a good response.

Belboz

2/17/20 1:01pm

I didn’t say it was a good response.

The Dude Abides

2/17/20 2:25pm

I lived in Carson California and went to school there. The most racist people

chazen

2/17/20 1:41pm

No, we shouldn't justify one terrible behavior just because another terrible behavior exists. WTY? Sure, when I was

Byron McNertney

2/17/20 10:16am

So, in your opinion, it is never understandable for a guy to get punched?

The Dude Abides

2/17/20 10:34am

Huge difference between something being "understandable" and advocating for

StantonMac

2/17/20 10:39am

I didn’t advocate for it. I said they deserved it. I also said

The Dude Abides

2/17/20 10:42am

Save the parsing for contract law.

StantonMac

2/17/20 10:59am

When I was younger I often found cause as to why someone deserve to get punched

DJROSS

2/17/20 10:41am

That's not even close to what I said and I think you know that. I accept this straw man as your concession.

Byron McNertney

2/17/20 10:44am

Concession? We’re we arguing?

The Dude Abides

2/17/20 10:46am

Over words? Of course not. That's very immature behavior.

Belboz

2/17/20 1:09pm

That girl was asking to be raped. Did you see what she was wearing?

SpiffCoug

2/17/20 11:15am

My biggest issue is that many are highly selective on when they are outraged

StantonMac

This is one of the legacies of the modern left

vegas guey

2/17/20 10:22am

Hmm. Hadn’t heard that before about the left.

The Dude Abides

2/17/20 10:34am

Yeah you’re part of the problem

YIsForBrigham

2/17/20 11:36am

Worse than calling someone that is falsely accusing someone of saying it.

CopperLix

2/17/20 2:36pm

And yet, every day, we have MLB fans on CB lusting for cheaters

gmj81

2/17/20 9:24am

Who is calling for “high” heat?

StantonMac

2/17/20 9:32am

Because that's not assualt? Or because pitchers always have that much control?

gmj81

2/17/20 9:37am

That would be great if a few guys had to sit for a month with a broken rib

StantonMac

2/17/20 9:42am

Ha, pitchers miss by that much all the time. At least that is their defense

gmj81

2/17/20 9:54am

Wrong. They don’t miss by feet when throwing a fastball at waist level.

StantonMac

2/17/20 10:03am

RE: Wrong. They don’t miss by feet when throwing a fastball at waist

gmj81

2/17/20 10:15am

Also, the unwritten rules in baseball are part of what's wrong with it

gmj81

2/17/20 10:22am

Lol. Yes it hurts. And how much it hurts is irrelevant.

StantonMac

2/17/20 10:25am

When you do it on purpose, it should be assault. Shouldn't matter if it's the

gmj81

2/17/20 10:30am

Meh. If you can't do the time, don't do the crime. A fastball to the ribs should

StantonMac

2/17/20 10:38am

There is a reason crimes of passion are punished less severely than premeditated

Ozymandias

2/17/20 8:48am

Garrett will lose. And it will cost him financially...heavily.

COUGZ

2/17/20 8:27am

The nfl has to have the sound right? They’ve got parabolic mics all over the field

YIsForBrigham

2/17/20 8:28am

Agreed. Challenge as I see it is that not a single player has seconded Garrett's

COUGZ

2/17/20 8:59am

Pouncey has definitively said he did not say it

YIsForBrigham

2/17/20 9:08am

I thought the NFL already conducted an investigation and said they had nothing to validate Garrett's claim.

SpiffCoug

2/17/20 9:05am

Obviously he’s lying as that would be the first thing he would be screaming at

cougfanz

2/17/20 8:31am

That's why Tomlin backs his guy 100%

BlackBart

2/17/20 8:43am

The defamation of Randolph is worse than the attack. He and his teammates would
