Well now that the "agenda" in on the table, it helps to understand your position.
FWIW, it's
HIGHLY unlikely anyone thats posted here to date (including you) would be accepted on his jury panel. At least not while one side or the other still has exclusions.
Secondly, it's not about Nick, Terry or any of the family being "nice people."
What he did was
dangerous, juvenile, stupid, arrogant and potentially deadly! It's not that difficult to understand.
And it's not about "US" and what we do. For the record, if any one of us here were to do the same thing and end up in the same position, I'd say the
SAME THING....
You fawked up and now you have to pay the piper
.
Nicks no different than anyone else and should not be considered or treated any differently.
He has celebrity status via the family and as such, will necessarily reap the havoc the press can play on a life. It may not be "fair" but it is what it is.
He'll have his day in court and a judge or jury will ultimately decide his fate.
If he skates on this I'd be amazed. This is not the 1st time he's done such things. And his attitude sucks! If that were not the case, I might feel a little differently. But it's not.
As an aside, You may or may not recall several years back, two "gentlemen" were involved in a little traffic altercation near the Courtney Campbell Causeway and the Veterans Expressway near the exit to St. Petersburg.
In the end, one of the men, a father and fellow martial artist lay dead in the street.
Another gentleman, a
very clean cut, wholesome looking, all american kid type, articulate and educated, with a decent future ahead of him, arrested for homicide. He shot and killed the Martial Artist over ROAD RAGE.
I knew both of these guys. Unfortunately, I knew the shooter better than the other martial artist, and if you asked me about him, I'd say the same thing you did about Nick...
very nice and respectful toward me and my profession
However, when he committed this horrendous, senseless, selfish act, he became another idiot scumbag to me!
and deserved whatever the courts threw at him and a tad more.
I didn't support this creep, nor did I speak up for him. What he did was uncalled for...
but he was a very nice guy...
I happen to like Terry's charachter (wrestling) and the work he's done with and for the kids
I think he failed as a father and in this case, unfortunately, it's going to hurt a lot, personally, professionally, financially and probably most of all, as a parent
.
We can't always control our kids, I'll be the 1st to admit that. We can however, try to give them proper guidance and role models while they're young.
Clem, aka:BUBBA the "love sponge
" ani't exactly what I'd want hanging around my kid!
Buying alcohol, supporting (openly) street racing and such is also low on my to do list when it comes to raising a child.
Finally, whether it worked or not, my son and daughter knew from day one, that I did not condone street racing, DUI or other such dangerous acts. Even when my son saw me do something inherrently stupid once, he even commented negatively about it
He also knows how much training and experience I have over the years and how little he really has to date
.
To each thier own but there will be
no support for Nick Hogan (Bollea) from me
