It's way safer. I played football through high school and had maybe a half dozen concussions, I've been playing rugby for 15 years now and have yet to have a single one.

AND I SAID THAT A SIMPLE RATE COMPARISON IS MEANINGLESS WITHOUT THE CONTEXT OF OTHER CAUSAL FACTORS, WHICH, WHEN TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT, SUGGEST THAT THE BIGGEST CAUSAL DEMOGRAPHIC FACTOR OF VIOLENT CRIME IS POVERTY.

I was working at a high school football game with my students and this guy politely asked for my number. I explained I was married. His friends got drunk and kept harassing me IN FRONT OF MY 14-15 year old students. Security stepped in and kicked them out, but they waited for me to leave inside of their car. I was so…

PREACH. It's analogous to an in vino veritas situation; the craziness will manifest in some specific way dependent on a given time and place (no one thinks they're Napoleon anymore, for example). The enraged sense of entitlement to women's time, attention and bodies exists outside this mentally ill person and is a…

This story is awful to me for the same reasons. I'm from a different background (though also from the Midwest - maybe that's the link?), but I've totally gone out to the Legion after funerals with my cousins. I don't know, we're Irish, and I always assumed it was the modern day substitute for a wake? You want some…

I can't with this story.

"'Why do men feel threatened by women?' I asked a male friend of mine. So this male friend of mine, who does by the way exist, conveniently entered into the following dialogue. 'I mean,' I said, 'men are bigger, most of the time, they can run faster, strangle better, and they have on the average a lot more money and…

True. Entitled people intimidate, harass, coerce, choke, steal money from their oppressed, get their oppressed fired, hide car keys, lie to all family members and erode protection from law enforcement by committing perjury to a grand jury to nullify any protection. Someone like that would NEVER use a gun to make their…

Also, I'm sick of hearing that we're not supposed to discuss politics in the immediate wake of a horrible incident. I mean, when else are we supposed to have that discussion?

No it's misandry to talk about male entitlement. Lets internet diagnose this guy with a mental illness or point out that he shot men too instead.

Inspired by Boondocks cover, I like to explain "I have a right be hostile"

"She should have been nicer to him."

God, well if she could have just learned to take it as a compliment! Obviously she should have been flattered. Maybe she did something to provoke him. See what feminism leads to?

I...I just...This sucks so much. Her poor family.

Now can we talk about how the entitlement complexes of certain men breed actual, real violence? Because apparently the UCSB massacre wasn't a clear enough example for some people.

Also, I'm sick of hearing that we're not supposed to discuss politics in the immediate…

I cannot even fathom that amount of entitlement in that guy. It blows my mind that he would rather spend the rest of his life in prison than allow his ego to be bruised even a little. Mind blowing and I'm sad this is the last thing I will probably read before sleep. Where's my cat? :(

Their OWN preferred name. Don't get up in arms about it. When a clear majority of a minority group decides that they want to be called something, we probably should do it.

Indian is the preferred term for most tribes, and is not generally considered offensive or archaic

If black people and Asians start referring to themselves that way and asking the press to use those terms, sure.

Speaking of racism... Indian? Fake Indian?
Can we expect other articles on Deadspin to refer to Negroes and Orientals?

Didn't read the story, but I'm making a stupid pro Redskins name comment.
