No, Hope Solo Is Not "Like" Ray Rice

Do you think the Hope Solo situation should be perceived the same way as the NFL situations?

  • Yes, domestic violence is domestic violence. It should all be viewed as equally appalling.

  • No, the present and historical contexts of the issues justifies the different public responses.

  • No, but I still think the response to Ray Rice and AD has been overblown.

A little before 1 a.m., Solo and the nephew began trading insults, and according to his deposition, Solo punched and struck the nephew multiple times before he was able to subdue her. At that point, Obert said in her deposition she entered the room, saw Solo was subdued and calming down, and asked her son to let Solo go. That’s when things escalated.
But when Obert’s son let Solo go, he told police she “immediately grabbed his hair, pulled his head down and started punching him in the face repeatedly.” Later, in the deposition, he said Solo “jumped on top of me and started bashing my head into the cement” inside the garage.

“She grabbed him by the head and she kept slamming him into the cement over and over again,” Obert told Outside the Lines. “So I came from behind her, and I pulled her over and, you know, to get her off my son. And then, once she got off, she started punching me in the face over and over again.”
Obert’s nephew would defend himself against Solo with a wooden broomstick, which he broke in half by striking it against Solo’s head as she refused to leave, according to his deposition.
Solo was repeatedly insulting [Cpl. Robert] Russell and [Sgt. Phil] Goguen, according to the report, and it was Goguen whom she informed that her necklace was worth more than he made in a year. As Russell was fingerprinting Solo, she “made numerous statements that I was not worth anything, and should be proud to have such authority.”

...

As she was being told to walk to the search area, Solo pulled away from an officer, leading her to be taken to a holding cell. There, Russell wrote, “officers took [Solo] to the ground to gain her compliance.” It was at this point, Russell wrote, that Solo told one of the officers that if she weren’t in handcuffs, “I’d kick your ass.”
Outside the Lines found no evidence that anyone with U.S. Soccer contacted prosecutors or police involved with the case, either. Public records requests made to the Kirkland Police Department do not appear to reflect any attempt by officials with U.S. Soccer to obtain the police reports from the case. [Lt. Mike] Murray told Outside the Lines he was not aware of anyone from U.S. Soccer contacting the Kirkland police for information about the case.

But this isn't like Ray Rice :mjpls:

It just goes to show they don't care about domestic violence much unless its man beating woman and or it makes them money. This story been happened now right before they start playing for the World Cup they want to bring this back up. shyt looks shady but as they have done this bullshyt to black athletes so long bout time they do it to someone white for a change lets see how this plays out though.

TYRONE GA!
What goes you gotta worry about some woman giving you the beats, bro? You seriously worry about a woman putting the mitts on you to the point you have to leave in fear of her physically killing you?

Punishment should be the same. That's my only thing.

This thread just reminds me of how the original post went over everyone's head. With that said, with the new information out, Hope Solo is on some bullshyt.

Worry about the passes women get in a world run and dominated by men. Some of the weakest Nikkaz post here.

Shes like a pit bull :damn: Even breaking stuff over her head doesn't stop her.

And you know her legs are strong af. So the cops probably did have a hard time controlling her.
