*posts: "You jump onto the field, you will be subjected to endless strawman arguments."

Posted by Will Hunting (204 lbs) (aka JoeMetz) May 4 '10, 07:31

There's consequences in the world that aren't put on signs. 99.99% of people know them and abide by them.

Dumbass kid didn't. It's a valid method of submission. He tempted fate and got hit. Oh well, life goes on.

No pitchforks here; just plain old common sense. Don't jump where you don't belong and you don't face consequences.

- No, I didn't. You're a lawyer who's upset that most don't agree with you, thus the pitchforks and mob comment - Will Hunting (204 lbs) May 4, 07:36 22

    - Explain to me again the non-strawman factor of your post on this board? - Will Hunting (204 lbs) May 4, 07:49 6

      - methinks your confusing a strawman argument with rhetorical hyperbole. -- nm - znufrii May 4, 07:51
    - let's be honest. In years of sporting events, there has been 2 players injured by fans. - groiny May 4, 07:44
    - This may or may not shock you - but I agree with you. People are too quick to jump to tasing in these situations. it's become a substitute for making - Reagen May 4, 07:44 12

        I sometimes get the impression that you think I disagree with you just to disagree with you. -- nm - Reagen May 4, 07:51 1

      - Perhaps in general, but in the specific instance of a fan running onto the field? I believe tasering is a fair default. - musubi May 4, 07:46 8
        
        I disagree that it's a default. And as noted - so do the police. -- nm - Reagen May 4, 07:48 1
        
        I understand that the police have to investigate it, it's the use of force. If a homeowner finds a burgler and tases him, the police would also - musubi May 4, 07:54
        
        there is no reason why someone needs to walk into by backyard either... - groiny May 4, 07:48 5
        
        If you found someone stranger in your backyard, you wouldn't taser them? Doesn't sound like you. (nm) - musubi May 4, 07:50 4
        
        If I thought I would not get sued, arrested and fined, sure. nm -- nm - groiny May 4, 07:52
        
        why would he need a taser when he's got his baseball bat handy? -- nm - znufrii May 4, 07:52 2
        
        Bat's been borrowed by something. -- nm - Will Hunting (204 lbs) May 4, 07:52 1
        
        why use a bat when I have 8 samurai swords to choose from? nm -- nm - groiny May 4, 07:53
