  1. China is run by a president that has been elected in perpetuity and doesn't care about the needs and humanity of his people. Above all else, this is the #1 reason why Trumps trade war was going to fail. China will literally starve their people in order to get an upper hand and there are no consequences. He's not facing re-election.
  2. Based on previous comments, I'm not so sure he does.
  3. The Wisconsin WR was, in fact, charged. He even went to trial
  4. The Wisconsin player was suspended per Wisconsin student-athlete conduct policy. A person can argue that Wisconsin's rules are flawed but it's their rules. https://uwbadgers.com/sports/2017/8/10/policies-student-athlete-discipline-policy.aspx?id=1336 3. When the Policy Applies This policy applies when a student-athlete has been charged with or arrested for a crime based on conduct involving: causing serious physical injury to another person creating a serious danger to the personal safety of another person making a credible threat of serious physical injury to another person sexual assault delivering or possessing with intent to deliver a controlled substance as defined in Chap. 961, Wis. Stats. felony theft or felony criminal damage to property "stalking" as defined in UWS 17.02(14) repeated violations of the criminal law that raise the concerns addressed by the policy 4. Deciding Whether the Policy Applies When there is a good faith question about whether the letter or the spirit of the policy applies, the athletic director shall decide, in consultation with the chair of the Athletic Board, whether the policy applies. 5. If the Policy Applies: Immediate Suspension Pending Factual Inquiry
  5. I have an Iphone. The ads on the mobile version are large enough that they cover almost the entire screen. It's weird
  6. Religious organizations taking stances on issues of morality that they can draw back to the teachings of Jesus doesn't mean it's a political stance. Now if they take a stance on 2A, or the Chinese tariffs, then that is a whole different discussion.
  7. Why would it be illegal to move from plastic to aluminum cups?
  8. Hmm. That says conviction. I must have misheard Benning
  9. Damon Benning said that under Tom Osborne if you were charged with a felony, you didn't play until resolved. I didn't realize that.
  10. Is it safe to tell us how he received that nickname?
  11. Has anyone heard if this old school pal, or anyone else for that matter, was brought up on the distribution of child porn charges related to this case? Because I think that would be a pretty significant piece of the puzzle.
  12. I don't think I'm making many assumptions. Just one, really. And it seems fairly minor to the whole ordeal.
  13. If we want to assume he didn't keep it on his phone the whole time, that means he had to have re-received it from someone that didn't delete it by police order, then send it to the girl? When he should have either deleted it immediately or reported it to police? I'm not sure that paints him in a better light.
  14. It's not an assumption. It's my opinion of the character of the person.
  15. I'm going to say that an adult keeping a video on his phone of a 15 year old girl engaged in any kind of sexual act, consensual, coerced, or otherwise is pretty damn bad. Even if that adult is 18 years old
  16. I believe he didn't know the legalities of what he was doing at the time. I doubt too many people would have. I also believe he didn't know it was an assault. I can't get past the part that he kept the video for 3 years, and then used it towards the girl after she (allegedly) rebuked his suggestions to "rekindle their relationship." That is the part that I am stuck on. And that makes him an awful person. I don't know what the right punishment is. And neither do the coaches or the university.
  17. I think those who believe what he did wasn't awful will remain mostly silent.
  18. Didn't all of the citations for weed get tossed for all of the players?
  19. Do you think what he did was awful? What is the appropriate punishment, outside of anything from the courts?
  20. It has been discussed a couple pages ago. The person that received probation was due to the fact that he was a minor at the time of filming and distribution. Washington was not a minor 3 years later when he sent the girl the video.
  21. I get the feeling from some in this discussion that they don't really care that Washington did what he did. Legalities aside. Because even if it is negotiated down from a felony to a misdemeanor, he still did what he did. It doesn't make it less awful from a human standpoint.
  22. In some instances, people are put on leave until it's sorted out. Which would be the same as a suspension, wouldn't it?
  23. It might be because he held onto the video for 3 years when everyone was instructed to delete it.
