So Steven A. Smith has been suspended for a week. This bothers me for several reasons. Get ready for the list.
1. Nothing he said was WRONG! ! He told the absolute truth. This is what happened. Though he made a CLEAR disclaimer/statement/distinction that he did not condone any man hitting a woman and what he and the males members of his family would do if anyone touched the females in his family, Women went into their fallacious tool box and pulled out the strawman fallacy and twisted the hell out of his words.
Women got upset with the word "provoke". As if there aren't women that are guilty of provoking men or being the aggressor. There are SEVERAL videos that will substantiate everything he said.
But what women did was personalize his words. They used situations that were the total opposite of what he said. They used situations where a woman didn't provoke a man & a woman was beaten down and would say oh she must have "provoked" him. Again classic Straw Man.
2. I wish that Steven A. Smith wouldn't have apologized and held his ground. I wish he hadn't appeased the feminists and other women that crucified him. This is why women play the victim card. It works!
3. This suspension also showcases something bigger. Steven A. Smith is now the example for any Black Man that speaks the truth. Just another form of Willie Lynch, trying to instill fear into Black Men. Speak the truth ****** and I will SILENCE you. Speak Speak the truth ****** and I will threaten you with your livelihood. During this suspension, they want Steven A Smith to think about what he said. This is his "time out", where he's supposed to learn his lesson.
4. This situation shows several things about women. We heard what he said and reacted emotionally. Isn't it amazing how quickly we ban against truth because our feelings take over? Because we don't like certain words that were used? Don't say anything about women in TRUTH because feminists will make sure you're chatised. Women put the pressure on the network and punked them all. And we wonder why we are unaccountable. We continously get enabled and emotionally coddled.
Where is all this quick unity and organization when a Black Man is wronged? Where is all this movement when Black Men have been wrongly convicted of rape? Why didn't we move quickly for Clifford Hall or Terry Achane? I bet most of us have to Google them to see who those men are.
I'm a WOMAN and I agree with Steven A. Smith's initial statement, and I will remain UNAPOLOGETIC.
