Libfuck Minn. Gov. NFL Players Compared To Brave Soldiers Returning From War

[mr dude@harvarduniversity.edu]

Why some of you "intelligent" people are not getting the "narrative"
is beyond me.

Over the few weeks several more NFL athletes joined a growing off
season arrest tally that has now eclipsed two dozen. The summer of
2012 is quickly becoming the most crime-filled in league history.

From Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson facing a
misdemeanor charge for resisting arrest at a nightclub to Dallas
Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant allegedly assaulting his mother, a
spike in incidents has pulled the spotlight away from impending
training camps.

Minnesota governor Mark Dayton defended Peterson on Minnesota Public
Radio on Tuesday, calling the four-time Pro Bowl back “an upstanding
citizen and really fine role model.”

Then he drew a curious parallel to explain the cause of the legal
troubles that often crop off for football players in the off season.

“It’s basically slightly civilized war, and then they take that into
society, much as soldiers come back, and they’ve been in combat or the
edge of it and then suddenly that adjustment back to civilian life is
a real challenge,” Dayton said via the Associated Press.

Clearly, that would explain Marshawn Lynch’s DUI charge, which
resulted from him nearly hitting two other vehicles while driving in
the wrong lane on an Oakland, Calif. highway.

And working in a “civilized war” environment is obviously what led
Denver Broncos defensive end Elvis Dumervil to allegedly pull out a
gun during an argument with another driver while both vehicles were
stuck in Miami Beach traffic.
