I was quoting (poorly) a Chris Rock joke where he described arguing with a woman who knows you won't hit her. (it's on youtube, and hilarious) But the joke's on you, friend. Been married for 8 years. Happily, too. My wife and I have never been violent to each other. But in this case I'm not speaking…

And are those nuances ever based on say...the gender of the offenders? Doesn't seem equal, if you ask me. And I'm not angry. Not even a little. I'm just wondering where the commentariat truly stands here. Reading the entire comments section seems to paint Rice as a violent abuser and his wife a helpless victim. …

how is this: "Mondaymorningquarterback is the guy asking the woman who claims she was raped what she was wearing at the time of the incident" not equating his defense of Rice with defending a rapist? My reading comprehension seems to be ok.

And what did she deserve, O white knight? A stern talking to? A glare of Fatherly Disapproval? Or nothing, because she's a woman, and should face no consequences for any of her actions? I'm not saying she deserved to be hit. But she sure as shit deserved something for behaving in the manner that was described. …

You aren't reading correctly. I'm saying that no one is accepting that his fiancée was wrong, too. She's being painted as an innocent victim (one commenter compared her to a rape victim!) when she instigated the whole thing by physically assaulting Rice first. Abuse is abuse, plain and simple. Neither party should…

What if Ronda Rousey beat up a 95 lb 5'2" man? Still cool? Even though she's a physically dominant, trained fighter? Your argument is invalid. In this case. Hitting women is wrong but...and I know this is a weird concept, but some women are bigger and stronger than men.

Hitting someone who is hitting you does not EVER equal rape. Rethink your stance.

I'm torn. On one hand, you never hit a woman. You just don't. On the other hand, people in this thread comparing hitting a person, who was verbally and physically assaulting another person and got struck, to the innocence of a rape victim? I can't get behind that. She did not deserve to be punched. She did…

I never said Ray wasn't completely wrong in his actions. He clearly was. However, there are commenters here saying his wife did "nothing wrong". That's the 'equality' I'm questioning. Not whether what Ray did was abhorrent. Because it was.

But...but...muh feminism! Muh patriarchy! #yesallwomen

I am curious to know how far women are allowed to go, according to most of the commentariat here. Are women completely untouchable maidens who can do anything short of threaten murder, or is there a line? Where is that line? Isn't letting women physically and verbally assault men without repercussion also sexist? …

Just got "They're taking away our rights!" so, mark off that square, if you have it.

After reading my facebook posts regarding this ruling ( I live in the DC metro area), I couldn't be prouder of my hometown. If you're playing Reactionary Bingo at home, we already have "Violation of First Amendment!" "Thanks, Obama!" and "I'm part Native American, and I think the name is respectful and proud!" More…

We don't call them the preseason Super Bowl Champs for nothing. I have a friend with the logo tattooed on his leg, and I can verify that each and every year I have known him was indeed "the Redskins year to win it all!"

For an undefendable position, there sure are a fuckton of people desperately defending it. I live in the DC metro area (closer to Baltimore, but pretty much in the middle, and everytime someone starts this conversation, people jump to defend the name and get upset when you suggest that maybe, just maybe it should be…

Did they at least take him to Chaps to made into their delicious pit beef?

Wendy's spicy chicken sandwich was the go-to, until Chick Fil A introduced their spicy chicken sando. Now, it's not even close.

Only if he brings his glasses and his shoes, so he has them.

+1 Jerky Boys reference.

Does he wear pinstripes? Then FUCK him. Cal Ripken Jr. is, was, and will be the greatest shortstop of all time. I can hate who and whatever the fuck I want. And I hate the Yankees. All of them. And the Red Sox too. But mostly the Yankees. Chew on that for a bit next time you're having a wank over Ol' Jeets.
