Slippery slope.
I don't think this is the right thread to discuss what if scenarios. All I know is I watched that video and while it was stupid it wasn't hard to watch or anything. When I see stuff that sickens me I know because it makes me uncomfortable to watch.
This was not what I'd describe as a disturbing video. Honestly I felt a whole lot worse watching those kids bully that old lady on the bus.
What changes everything is that the kid broke his wrist. Intentional or not that means the heat is gonna be on this guy and it's going to be spun as child abuse.
All I'm prepared to say based on that video is that banning him from minor hockey and coaching, along with the public shame for him and his family is punishment enough to satisfy me. And I'm the kinda guy that thinks that people like jerry Sandusky should be taken out back and have a bullet put in their skull.
