Also in response to Paine Tablet, why are you bringing this up now?

Most who are abused do not seek help until they have reached a breaking point. Even then, they most often stay in the abusive relationship.

I am not going to condemn Bridges without hearing his side (looks awfully bad) but am surely not going to start blaming the victim.

I agree and I'm saying its extra egregious because unlike the red neck who got fired from his minimum wage job at the factory, this guy has everything in his life just humming along making it EVEN worse and for me, impossible to understand.

He’s been patted on the back and told how awesome he is probably since the day they figured out he was a basketball phenom.

Narcissism plays a big role in these rich people feeling they can get away with murder. They truly believe they can and live in an alternate reality.

Guys, this isn't meant to be aggressive towards either one of you but none of it fucking matters. This shit has no context that makes it any worse or better. It's an extremely strong man that is over a foot taller and probably 100lbs. heavier breaking the nose and ear drum, concussing and reportedly strangling unconscious the mother of his children, reportedly in front of their children. Reportedly this isn't an isolated incident and is actually a pattern of behavior. I say reportedly about her being strangled unconcious, it being in front of their children and it being a pattern of behavior not because I doubt those things but because the medical records make the broken nose, ear drum and concussion a fact. It's some really horific stuff if it's an entitled/enabled multimillionaire pro athlete or someone unemployed on the verge of losing what little he has. It's so disgusting that the scenario surrounding it just doesn't have an effect on its level of repugnance.

You guys are misunderstanding me. I'm saying it's even MORE insane when someone has it all. I don't get it. If someone is seeing their life go down the toilet it isn't ok, but it on SOME level makes a grain of sense. Their life is spiraling and they lash out, not at ALL ok, but I get it. I worked with DV survivors for years so this isn't a theoretical exercise for me. I saw so much of it I can't even tell you and I still worry about some of the women who disappeared. I'm saying it never made sense to me when I was working with regular people who were often very poor and it makes even LESS sense when it's some insanely rich guy. I am entitled to have that reaction and am puzzled that people seem to think I'm saying it's justified if it's a poor guy, that is not at all what I'm expressing. I'm saying this is next level insane to me.

I did get what you were saying and I appreciate your opinion. I just think when there is any DV incident with one person (almost always a man) who is physically dominant and not only assaults his partner but also traumatizes his children by doing these horrible things in front of them... it doesn't matter who they are, it's just too terrible to quantify for me... regardless of their standing in life but again, I hear what you're saying and your opinion is just as valid as mine.

I didn't think that at all.

And thank you for working with DV survivors.

It's definitely insane and beyond the pale, I think we all agree on that, or most of us anyways.

It's hard to know if this is the first time. The reality, however, is that most incidents of domestic violence are categorized as reciprocal and in this majority, women are more often initiators. These are relevant facts to consider. Personally, if I thought people actually cared about this issue they would address domestic violence that women partake in, because more often than not, they are what brings violence into the occasion. The vast majority of DV shelters are reserved for women, despite what I just have laid out. We don't get angry with pitchforks when women hit men. We typically laugh. The reality is that the majority of DV victims probably deserved it with what they brought to the table.

I'm not saying this is what happened here. Miles Bridges could be a serial abuser for all we know. Or he could've been hit first. Who knows? But we ARE quick to judge based on "damage", regardless of the fact that violence is itself damaging regardless of whether or not you get hurt. We don't treat it that way with women. We shrug it off because we are fucking hypocrites.

This is sooo wrong. Hit first? So what????
Men don't hit women back. At worst they wrestle them to the ground snd hold them down. Not hit, kick and choke.
How big is Miles? An athlete in training all his life? The strength discrepancy between him and her? You don't think he could have made better choices if she was indeed attacking him first?
Yes, we do not know all the facts but short of her coming at him with a deadly weapon, his violence is unacceptable. Period. Regardless if she hit first.
period.
Men should not beat women or children. Period.
No excuse.
I am sorry, but this isnt a 150 lb guy fending off a 300lb woman. This is a pro athlete smacking around his petite wife.
Do not defend this behavior!!!

Sorry for being so blunt and harsh, but that is just so wrong man.

I can't imagine any team signs him in the weeks ahead. Even for the minimum it would be toxic in Portland, probably everywhere else too.

Will Charlotte pull the QO?
 
Dude needs to do some time, some counseling, some public apologies and ownership and then maybe, maybe he gets a shot somewhere. No way he plays this season.
 
I hope a fair verdict is able to be reached, the innocent party is able to get back to as close to whole as possible, and the guilty party faces the music, but ultimately comes out a much improved individual as well.

I really would hate to see money play a large role in the outcome, but sadly that seems to be the norm.

They could sign him cheap then to save face say he won’t play this year and they are gonna get him help. Would be super chicken shit but I could see Charlotte doing that.
