Can you cite one example of a black athlete who was convicted rape and got probation?

I’ll see your Kobe and Jameis, who were never charged or convicted, and raise you Mike Tyson who got three years after being convicted.

There is no proof of that. All the examples cited are of athletes who were never convicted. On the other hand, Mike Tyson got three years for rape.

Kobe was only accused and NEVER charged or convicted. Same with Jameis. These guys were CONVICTED!

Why do you feel the need to call Daryl Homer a black fencer but you don’t call the others white fencers?

What makes this case different from any other case of cold blooded murder?

First, the concept of “patriarchy” is wholly western and was born out of western Academia. It is also not coherent in itself( at least in how it’s used in the West) and inadequate for describing and understanding the customs of many other cultures.

Both of these injunctions would have been pretty universally common less than a hundred years ago. Our present age is the exception that proves the rule.(Strict observance of particular rules governing male/female relations)

And you know this due to your omniscience and absolute knowledge.

No, how about we don’t revisit it because there is absolutely NO point at all.

He strikes me as one of those people who wouldn’t care or wouldn’t even get the reference. He’s a sports super-fan. His knowledge base probably doesn’t stray too far from facts about his favorite team.

That is how future generations will remember a beloved series, as the crap it turned into

EVERY PROJECT STARTS WITH PREREQUISITES. EVERY! And if you give me the best player from every state I’d have one of the best teams in the NFL.

As the writer of this piece said: He is an adult, an adult’s life isn’t ruined when some piece of pop culture is redone in a fashion that they find displeasing.
