Good job.
Fame and power corrupts. That's the truth, and not my opinion. If you don't believe me, type it into your search bar and look at the evidence.

Or, you could just use facts to back up your point.

Find me 5 people from the current 5 box office movies who have been charged with spousal abuse recently.

No?

Ok. Well find me 20 NBA players who have been charged with hitting women, or something equal to that.

What? No again?


So, you can't even do that, yet you're coming in here saying "Its the norm. Get over it and quit being mad" like its a fact. Well here's a fact for you, you're ****ing wrong.

I can guarantee you you won't find many examples that happened recently, yet you're saying the guys staying out of the media are the minority.

Here's another one, how about you list the pro athletes who are on reality TV shows. Even include shit like dancing with the stars if you feel like it. Then when you're done, go look at how many pro athletes there are currently, and do the math. Its not even 1%. So again Chan, you have no ****ing clue of what you're talking about.




Reply with substance to the post, or don't even bother.

Re: Chad Johnson arrested for domestic violence;Released by MIA

My point: Power corrupts, as seen by the many historical examples you can find on google. Here's what you do to double check the facts: type in 'power corrupts' in your search bar. Type in 'athletes and domestic problems'. Type in 'celebs and domestic violence'. There should be 10-15 links on the first page, any most of those are lists. Read the evidence.

Your counterpoint: Give me five names who happen to be in the top 5 box office movies this week, who have been charged with a specific crime this week. If 5 celebrities haven't been arrested by the end of the week, it's proof that power and fame does not change the individual. If 20 guys from the NBA aren't arrested for domestic violence, it's proof that a person remains the same regardless of their circumstance. It proves that power never corrupts.

Bitch please look it up. There is historical evidence of celebs behaving unfavorably. This year, last year, last 5 years, 10, 20... there's plenty of evidence. You want to narrow it down to these few weeks, because you want to ignore everything that happened before that period.

Your tendency to pigeonhole general truths to fit your agenda reflects poorly upon you. If you were a talk show host, the behavior of shotgunning straw man responses, insulting what you don't believe, and proclaiming a moral high ground would attract many listeners. But this isn't a talk show, and there's no audience.
.
You're gonna type your response before you look up google, correct? Smh.

Yea, that was kind of the point. I knew you couldn't.


And again, you're throwing insults after pleading that everyone acts like a big boy adult like little Channielsons grown into.



Reading your posts makes it clear you have a very thin grasp on reality.

Reading your posts makes it clear you have a very thin grasp on reality.
You asked for examples of athletes and violence, so I pointed out the re-occurring history between athletes and violence.

I can tell you where and how to find it, but I can't make you accept it.

Throughout these posts you've posted multiple straw-men, re-phrasing opposing arguments to fit your ideals. You've repeatedly avoided the points that don't fit your agenda.

Arguing with you is like playing checkers with a toddler. They keep changing the parameters so they can't ever lose. They don't care about how to win correctly; they only care that they win somehow.

It's a pity you feel that way, because this is an internet forum and you don't really win. You just kind of outlast the other guy.

FORT LAUDERDALE (AP) — A warrant has been issued for the arrest of former NFL wide receiver Chad Johnson in South Florida.
The state attorney's office confirmed Thursday that a Broward circuit judge issued a warrant May 7 against Johnson for failing to report to his probation officer.


Johnson received a year of probation last September after pleading no contest to a domestic violence charge involving his former wife, reality TV star Evelyn Lozada.
The six-time Pro Bowl player was arrested in August after Lozada said he head-butted her during an argument. She quickly filed for divorce, which was finalized days before his conviction. They had only been married since July 4.
