August 1, 201412 yr Probably not. I'd never be in that situation so it's a completely pointless scenario. You can't definitively say that. Seemingly normal, level-headed people snap all the time.
August 1, 201412 yr You can't definitively say that. Seemingly normal, level-headed people snap all the time. I can definitively say I would never punch a woman. With 100% confidence.
August 1, 201412 yr I can definitively say I would never punch a woman. With 100% confidence. A woman who is trying to stab me would get more than a punch if that's what it meant to save my life. I don't think that makes be a bad person either. I wouldn't expect anyone to hold back if someone, man or woman, is trying to kill them.
August 1, 201412 yr I've been thinking about this thread, and I'm not seeing the comparison. Does anyone really think a dude sucker-punching another dude is worse than beating your wife? I mean seriously??

I mean seriously?? If someone read this post and then read my posed question they would see a clear difference in the two situations.
August 1, 201412 yr Author I can definitively say I would never punch a woman. With 100% confidence. No chance you can say that AND be accurate.
August 1, 201412 yr No chance you can say that AND be accurate. I absolutely can, and just did. You don't know me, and have no clue what I would or wouldn't do.
August 1, 201412 yr If you take "woman" out of the equation Hill's punch was way way worse. But it was a woman. You can't change the fundamental aspect of the situation.
August 1, 201412 yr But it was a woman. You can't change the fundamental aspect of the situation. I know, just trying to make my thoughts clear. I think what Rice did was worse but I understand what/why Rice probably did it. Hill on the other hand... Rice made a real bad decision that I am sure he regrets, Hill (if we base it on this one incident alone) is a real thug. Put it this way, although what Rice did is worse, I think less of what Hill did. Hopefully that makes sense.
August 1, 201412 yr Author I absolutely can, and just did. You don't know me, and have no clue what I would or wouldn't do. Are you human? Then I know that you can't say that.

Put it this way, although what Rice did is worse, I think less of what Hill did. Hopefully that makes sense. Do we know what happened prior to the Hill sucker-punch though? Doesn't that play a part in framing what he did? Also, can you help me "understand why Rice probably did it", because I can't fathom a logical reason for it.
