If he did this with purpose, it was probably misguided. Sure he sent a message to this clown, but now a whole pipeline of these cockroaches are going to bait him into a reaction.
Again, the insult was lame. Travis is gay because he’s dating a the biggest star on earth? [Reply]

And maybe we as a society should teach the lesson that you don’t get to just egg people on for clicks. If Jason body slammed the guy it would be satisfying but at the same time questionable. Destroying the dudes phone was just flat out satisfying. [Reply]

There’s a video where a guy gets shot doing some prank/baiting. Pretty satisfying. [Reply]

He was asking for it. In what bizarre timeline does it make sense to call a stranger you’ve never met before a bundle of sticks in public. Try replacing that with the n word. How would that have worked out?
These douche bags have too much immunity. These players get ejected for small reactions but fans can say vile shit and get away with it. We’re just a week removed from fans assaulting a right fielder and some media groups calling the dude a hero. [Reply]

I am not defending the students behavior. He's a dipshit kid. But smashing his phone is childish and irresponsible for an adult thats in the media all the time. You wanna live a quiet life and be left alone then stop being in media. [Reply]

Obviously you don’t know the mental state of people randomly shouting mean things at ppl they haven’t met.
Ignore move on. Derp
I use to tailgate by the tee-pee gang set up. King Carl use to bring people to see the tailgating and they always went to the tee-pee gang. Other fans yelled at him, some of it pretty vile. I never did despite my feeling that his arrogance being the problem in the later years. I wish I would have now. :-) [Reply]

Or maybe we should finally stopped letting fans especially in the social media age feel like they can say whatever the fuck they want. Again if kelce was actually gay the kid would be cancelled for eternity. If the kid called a black guy an n word in the hood not a single person would sympathize with him when he gets the ever living piss beaten out of him.
If he called a stranger he never met before a faggot in the grocery store not a single person would’ve been upset if this kid got beaten to a pulp.
In what bizarre reality is the lesson here that an athlete should take this amount of abuse while the kid who says the hateful shit has immunity? [Reply]

Straight white guys are free game. That's what we're telling these infants. You can do anything you want to a straight white man and be forgiven/excused. [Reply]

You obviously don’t know the difference between a poor guy with mental illness versus a kid with a sense of entitlement.
For the record I don’t think the dude should have had his phone destroyed although I love the **** around find out aspect of this. But every employer should know this kids name when he tries to apply for a job. Which is the reason the kid will settle out of court and kelce will probably just end up paying for his phone. The kid thinks he is bulletproof and it’s time we teach this lesson before it gets worse. It’s one thing to do this online but the cocky nerve of this kid to get into a strangers face he never met before and say this kind of shit? At some point this becomes a danger to kelce and every other athlete and celebrity. You don’t get immunity because you can go home and hide behind a keyboard
Again we are a week away from a few dickhead fans being called a hero in some circles for assaulting Mookie Betts. It took a last minute baseball intervention to even decide these guys should be banned from the ballpark. [Reply]

Dude, straight white men got it damn good in this country. They are not discriminated against. Doesn't mean you get to do whatever you want.
I say the n-word in public, I'd probably get my ass kicked despite being 65 years old. And people would stand by, let it happen and maybe applaud. And I'd deserve it. [Reply]
