    I hope you appreciate the predicament you put me in. See, you going soft means I got to double down now, just to keep the status quo, and hope that the coma becomes contagious and spreads to the rest of his family. Way to go, CST. Now, you got me wishing death on kids. You make me sick.

    Stevenson was in all likelyhood minutes away from ending his professional boxing career and hanging up his gloves. All those years of sparring, fighting and danger caught up to him in the waning moments of his career. It seems unfair to have gone through all of that and suffer an injury like that with the exit in sight.

    Never understood why he accepted his fight at his age...

    Honestly though if the snowflakes get more of a foothold, combat sports of any type will probably be banned, in say 20 years or less. Probably only have tennis and golf left! I heard the other day fizzy drunks were gonna be heavily taxed ffs!
    I'm not making light of the situation, just think it's inevitable that these sports will get banned eventually, sadly.

    Id rather be or have someone I care about in his situation than dead or disabled because they went overseas to fight in some bs war for a government that doesn't give a sht about them after they're no longer useful.

    I’m sure that ideally you’d prefer someone you care about to be in neither situation.....

    c'mon, you know its heavy sugar content thats the issue, not the fizzy drink. Diabetes isnt about being a"snowflake" or not. I'd prefer the extra 30 years of healthy living personally, you would to.

    Its the fake belief that there is no real danger which is the killer and kills way more.

    Great way of looking at it. At least he was providing for his wife and kids doing something where he wasn't having his pants pulled down like a tool..I respect soldiers, but they are just a number, cannon fodder, and all for money and power, not defending anything but elite taking the **** !

    I think anyone that believes what someone is telling them instead of researching for themselves is quite dumb..Anyone for instance that didn't think Smoking was seriously bad for you back in the day is a really thick person.. The cases of people taking tobacco companies to court is mental
