Stephen A Smith to Women on domestic abuse

[ThePhantomCreep]

These days any group that has been historically disadvantaged gets a great big gold bubble built around them which is then placed on a pedestal with a giant "DO NOT TOUCH" sign attached to it. If anyone dares to even accidentally infringe, no matter how mildly, a public witchhunt is immediately initiated. The public loves a witchhunt for those not as righteous as they are.

The poor disadvantaged white male. Boo frigging hoo.

[Andrew Wiggins]

while his message came across as idiotic and misinformed victim blaming, provocation can indeed come from the woman in terms of threats and instigating physical violence on their own.

Weak bait. Try a different alt.

He was absolutely right. If a woman dosen't want to get her teeth knocked down her throat then she shouldn't assault others. Just because "hurr imma gurl" doesn't mean you get to do whatever you want without consequence. @ people crying "but girls are by nature weaker!"

If they know they are weaker, then they should know their place and not put their hands on someone of provoke somebody that will knock them the **** out. Would it alright if I went up to a 6'8" body builder and assaulted or provoked him? I'm obviously weaker than him, so it's perfectly ok that I assault or provoke him, right?

women that have the nerve to think it's ok to put their hands on other people deserve to have their teeth stomped into the back of their throats just like anyone else.

Bottom line; everyone should keep their hands to themselves. You want to talk shit, then talk shit, but don't ever become physical unless you want a fight with someone.

Yes, he had to apologize for that.

ESPN has a strong liberal bias. This isn't news.

There are very few justifiable reasons to beat the living snot out a girl. Having a purse flung at you (for example) isn't good enough.

I once got into a brawl at a pub in Vegas. In the melee, a drunk girl starting sissy- slapping me. I pushed her off, but the thought of beating on her 5'2" inch frame never crossed my mind. Because I'm not a psycho.

Sorry tough guys, you have to pull your punches with the ladies.

5'3" manlet's natural strength >>>>> 5'3" woman's.

Most 15 year old boys are stronger than your typical adult woman.

no shit man,

its not right to hit a woman.

However to point out that a hissy "i dont need no man" women who argue and go mental are more likely to piss off an abusive man is not wrong and should not have to apologies for stating the obvious

good work on pushing the woman that slapped you away though

some women are ****en mental, not saying they should be beat but it would be like me dancing around and yelling at a boxer... you wouldn't want to see me beaten to a pulp and almost die.... but im sure you would enjoy seeing a few punches to the head while deep down inside thinking I deserved it

I grew up in a household where my Dad would hit my mother. There are a number of things she could have to done to "provoke" him that didn't include her hitting him. So I guess I can understand women or whoever being sensitive about the wording. But let's be honest, people had to have known what he was trying to say. It's like they heard the word "Provoke" and ignored everything else he said. I think it's unfair to make it seem like he's blaming women when it was very clear that he wasn't.

Stephen A Smith is an idiot. He should have just said that neither the man or woman has a right to put their hands on each other. Instead he pretty much blamed the victim. I see the ISH keyboard warriors are out in full force. ****ing I'm not surprised the posers on this site would act like tough guys

Stephen A. Smith is right on the money. Women are out of control. It all started when they were given rights. Time to put them back in their place.

You don't have to look that hard.
