Can you tell I don’t have anyone to talk to?
In response to Will Smith’s hitting Chris Rock, Sam Crosby, Sky News Contributor on the Paul Murray Show, said this. “C’mon it’s the most human reaction for a husband to defend his wife’s honor like that.”
I say, more’s the pity. Crosby is intimating that it is normal or acceptable to express emotions with violence.
Because this type of violent reactivity is common, even respected by some, does not mean it is acceptable or optimal. Violence begets violence.
Violent behavior shows a lack of self-control and a lack of self-awareness, both of which Smith demonstrated.
Martin Luther King, Jr. said, “Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.”
Again, I hope that Smith is reflecting on the value of this moment.
I agree!
Totally a 100% agree
I guess Smith did apologize to Chris. Too little, too late?
No, I wouldn’t say too little too late. I would say it’s a good start. I sense that there is a lot more to come.
