You're ****ting all over your integrity.
Summary of my argument is if either did what they alleged to have done it is really really bad.
If there were racial slurs it doesn’t absolve Garrett of nearly killing a guy with a helmet. Not in the least bit.How about we get together somewhere and you can shout racist stuff at me while I swing a football helmet at your face. Then we can find out which one actually deserves punishment.

I don’t so..at no point did I ever argue that it would be okay to hit a guy with a helmet.This is what ideology does to people. I bet he truly believes that a word is worse than physical assault.
I asked you a question and you respond by trying to accuse me of....something?I get that you have joined the mob.
Strength in numbers.

Maybe he said "give me back my helmet, neighbor" and it all escalated from there?

He said, after the tackle:Maybe he said "give me back my helmet, neighbor" and it all escalated from there?
Lmao at people saying the helmet could've killed the punk QB, that it was attempted murder, and so on. Talk about overblowing the whole incident.
First, Garrett was wrapped up by the 330# DiCastro, who was the only sane person there, and was pushing him away from Rudolph.
Second, Rudolph came after Garrett as he was being manhandled by the huge OLman. Garrett didn't have free reign to get at Rudolph unimpeded because DiCastro was in the way. Rudolph used DiCastro as a shield to get to Garrett and when Garrett saw him coming at him, he swung the helmet.
Third, even if Garrett had unimpeded access at Rudolph with the helmet, it is extremely unlikely that any real damage could have been inflicted. This also assumes Rudolph, an actual athlete, wouldn't have tried to duck that is. Modern helmets are designed to absorb impacts and thus, have a very thin hard plastic layer (3 mm) followed by a bunch of padding made of foam like material. This wasn't some heavy solid core metal or even plastic. Hardly a weapon.
Obviously, you can't have a black man swing an object at a white person on National TV and upset the redneck fan base, so it was overblown to justify the extraordinarily unjust and overboard punishment. Pleeeease, even the token NFL mouths in the media followed the prescribed script to a tee, like Whitlock, Sharpe, and SAS. Of course, the sheep followed the NFL script hook, line, and sinker. Everyone feels good that the dangerous black dude was put in his place. Crisis averted. LMAO.
So you believe you can kill someone by swinging a modern NFL helmet at them?I wasn't sure that this thread would find a post that could top what was already here for sheer folly. But then this one came along, and blew the others away!
