It’s interesting how many people feel comfortable cracking jokes about what is a pretty disgusting act of domestic violence. I have a feeling many of these same people would doing way more handwringing and way fewer ha-ha-funny-funny-time jokes had Smith poured the boiling water on Gaspar.

New to the gawker network?

She boiled Diet Coke?

When letting it “boil over” gets worse...

As a Bears fan and a University of Illinois graduate, I find the fact that people still actually HIRE Ron Turner as a coach to be the bigger WTF. They definitely buried the lede.

She was boiling mad, amirite?

Shouldn’t she be suspended for the season too?

lol domestic violence amirite?

“HE DESERVED IT HE DIDN’T SCREAM FROM THE MOUNTAIN TOPS HOW FUCKING PUMPED HE WAS TO VOTE FOR HILLARY”

Does this mean she never gets to be employed in the profession of her choice? I mean, if he had performed any act of DV toward her, none of the posters here would ever let him play professional football, correct?

Can’t wait for the insightful (weekly) Jezebel coverage of this case!

Don’t worry, I just tipped my bartender.

It’s Ice Bucket, dummy. Ice Bucket.

This should actually help his chances of being drafted. Players who don’t react to head injuries are exactly what NFL coaches are lookin for

I really hope she gets prosecuted for this. A man would. This should be a reminder to everyone that domestic violence is not a one-way, man on woman street. Just because the physical effects of woman on man DV aren’t usually as severe it doesn’t mean that it’s not violence or it’s not criminal.

Can this be shared on Jezebel so we can have people ask what this abusive man did to this poor woman to push her to that point?

Terrible thing to happen, but at least they’re raising money for ALS.

Always wondered what my ex was up to.

Domestic abusers take many forms. I hope he gets out of that toxic relationship and goes to the pros and makes enough money to take care of his child because she should not be around children.

Roger Goodell proactively suspended him for 4 games for the incident.
