The Second Stone is a piece of shit

Well played.

This dude fails on the most obvious test: if you have to precede your remarks with caveats like, “Now, I’m not racist, but…” then everyone knows that something really offensive is about to be said.

How many times in these threads has The Second Stone had to say, “Now, I don’t support domestic violence, but…”?

The only thing more stupid about him than his pro-knocking women out views is his admission that he thinks the whole universe revolves around him, and that we are just figments of his imagination.

The evidence is in, and the jury finds TSS to be a seriously major league asshole.

Cornered animals sometimes attack. They run, submit, take it, or fight.

He didn’t leave her in the elevator. He lovingly dragged her limp, unconscious body out, and dropped her on her face.

Since you have admitted to trolling,

I am not taking anything else you have to say seriously.

You’re saying Rice is an animal? What a racist!

We are all animals. Except LavenderBlue, she is a plant. A lavender plant.

Does your solipsism includes then lying to yourself?

I already linked to the longer video that shows how he was next to a pilar and make the spitting motion before she slapped him.

And no. I did not imagine that:

I think you are lying about looking properly for the articles and about what would change your mind.

No, it was made by looking at the video and looking for what the staffers reported. As was pointed before, it is you who is wilfully ignoring the evidence.

Or she’s scared shitless. If I had a significant other that would cold-cock me and then hoist me around like a sack of potatoes, I’d pretty much say damn well anything he wanted me to. You poop rainbows and puppies? Sure, honey, you betcha. I’ll back up that claim on national TV or a court of law, whatever you need, He Man. Just please don’t hit me no more.

Or hit my children.

Judging by the video most of the kinetic energy did come from her lunge, rather than him swinging his fist. It was a weak jab, left-handed, as she lunged into him.

Sensitive to men and Palestinians? How can this be? What’s next? Syrian Christians?* The poor?*

You’re using your bathmat incorrectly. It is meant to be stepped on.

I’ve looked at your articles. If I knew who said they witnessed spitting, where and under what circumstances that would be better. The links you have are reported on the internet and are not sourced to anyone, nor stated as to whether it was in the elevator or where. I didn’t see it in the video. Doesn’t mean it wasn’t caught, but I am not yet going to call this reliable. It’s an internet rumor. The video isn’t.

You make me out to be some sort of monster. I hate poor people just like everyone else in America who thinks they are still middle class.

Says the one who doesn’t understand how English works.:stuck_out_tongue:

And even if he did it, she probably started it earlier than the video began, possibly by being born.

“And then he ran into my knife. He ran into my knife TEN TIMES.”

Yeah, this was indescribably stupid.

Thanks for that. First time I’ve seen it. I think that changes a lot. That means HE started the fight, and her slapping him was a natural reaction to being spat on. The only think I’m not sure I agree with is that the article calls it a “knockout punch”, but later says she hit her head on the railing inside the elevator. It seems much more likely that the punch merely made her fall backwards, and the subsequent blow to the head knocked her unconscious. Not that he doesn’t bear responsibility for that, of course - but I’m having a hard time believing that he formed the intent to deliver a punch that would knock her out, as so many people seem to believe. He probably was just reacting to the situation, albeit a situation that it now appears he may have brought on himself.

OK, I’m out. I hadn’t seen this article before. If the OP had linked this article and pointed out that The Second Stone’s account doesn’t seem to match it, I wouldn’t have questioned why The Second Stone was being Pitted. My only question was about why The Second Stone was singled out since other people had also defended Ray Rice. I don’t have enough information to really give an informed opinion about the whole Ray Rice incident. I just saw the video and saw people interpreting from that.

That said, I did a 2 second search for articles after I saw this article and found a bit of conflicting information, IMO. From CNN:

Look at what happens at :25 of the video. He makes a motion toward her while he’s got her pushed up against the wall in the elevator and her head jerks to the side. He appears to have swatted or spit at her. She then swats at him with one arm while still clutching her purse. He then knocks her out. For you to continue to defend this behavior in light of actual video evidence does in fact make you a rather shitty person. Or a troll.

And your inability to grasp basic logic and reading comprehension makes me wonder how you could actually be an attorney.
