I don't believe that. Without professional fighting, he'd already be dead or doing a life sentence. If our society can advance far enough to get him that far, we can get him further.

War is one of those people that they don't want in the world, but need. He's a warrior. If there was a legit war going on, you'd want people like him defending you. They have a hard time functioning in regular society, but as evidenced above, we can fix that and help those people function in peace time.

I wouldn't want a mentally disturbed man defending me sorry.

If he can't act in a calm manner towards people on a normal day to day basis and routinely beats the shit out a loved one on a day to day basis culminating in attempted rape and murder putting him in one of the highest stress environments known to man is just fucking ludicrous.

I'm scared of losing my temper one day.

My feelings go out to War and Christie. This sucks for all parties involved.

Dude honestly just needs hugs. Listen to his episode on the Joe Rogan podcast.

You're a joke. You have to be. This is the dumbest thing I've ever read.

WTF is this shit...
 
Michael went on to tell us that the reason War Machine hasn’t turned himself in is because the judge from his last stint in jail would be his judge in this case, and he feels that she wouldn’t grant him a fair trial.

He hasn't been arrested or charged and he's certain the judge would be the same because... reasons?

Pish.

You first, man. I'm sure the guy who lost his mind at the UPS guy would welcome some hugs from you.

Almost all of the people he attacked at the birthday party were people who were were trying to calm him down, lol. He really is I Threw It On The Ground personified.

kamspy is just continuing to firm up the theory that whatever opinion someone can hold on NeoGAF, will be held

I so badly want to respond to his quote with a cetrtain image Buuuuuuuut I just got off a ban and would rather not get banned the same day I just came back.

I seriously can't believe what he's posted, though.

There are plenty of warriors who aren't pieces of shit known for beating women, hitting whoever look at him funny in a bar and getting on the shitlist on nearly every bar in Pacific Beach.

I'm holding on to hope that it's all him taking a piss at hiroshawn.
 
There have been holocaust deniers here. Close enough.

They never had the balls to actually say that either. It was always very vague 'history was written by the winners' or some such nonsense, then when called on it, tried to slink away

Well, let's hope we never see a Hitler defense force.

Oh they exist. Not only that but holocaust deniers are very close to them.

Uh... you just did.

I know I posted the image but I meant i'm not going to directly quote him and attack him but just in case I'll remove it because I don't want to get banned for something that might be considered a personal attack.

I just think it's awful seeing someone defend an abuser.

sorry, we've had them here before

we've also had people defend the Dancing Boys of Afghanistan. We also have an ISIS defender in the other topic.

like i said every opinion that it is possible for someone to have on NeoGAF has been held :p

You can always PM a mod if you're really concerned about something, but generally pointing out that someone said something baffling is okay as long as you don't tell them that they're morons for having said it. Hell, some of us will even come back and apologize and agree when we're called out on our poor form. We all have our moments.

Yeah I just want to be careful since I just got back from a ban. :p

I personally think the image is fine but would rather stay on the safe side. I just couldn't believe the second post he wrote and how ridiculous it sounded.

There are plenty of people that are much better warriors than him that don't do the shit he keeps on doing.

It's always in threads with a fucked up premise where i learn about more fucked up things. OffTopic has become like a disturbing second education for me.

Gaf will defend anything. I love it.

I don't think we've had direct defenders of Hitler though. I remember the last Holocaust denier I read, posted in this thread in fact :p

Eh like I said, deniers are just as bad. I've actually met some people who said they understand Hitler and other racist shit.

Just some really awful people out there.

No we do. I recall one or two getting banned in my time as a mod.

I don't know if there's any still currently active, but they probably know what would happen if they did.

We did have a guy not too long ago defending Hitler's policies, even while admitting he went too far with the whole genocide thing :p

That's why I didn't quote the link. Personally I thought it was ok.

Four foot nothing porn star with a kitchen knife vs ex-MMA fighter who at his worst could drop 8 people like it was nothing and keep going? His brother needs to work on his storytelling skills.

He is going to have a hell of a time proving it as it is highly doubtful that the man she was with could stand up to an MMA fighter, and given his history and her stature, she probably feared for her life.

Then there is the fact that she was completely and methodically brutalized even if his account was true.

Clearly what happened was something akin to her attempting to hit him with a weapon, so he disabled her arm.

Then she picked up a frying pan with her FOOT and swung it at him, so he had to make it so she couldn't use her legs, right? And then she tried to use a deadly blowgun on him with her nose!

...In all seriousness, fuck this guy. I hope Dog DID catch his ass.

I'm not sure they understand that Nietzsche quote they used, though I may be wrong instead.

It seems to be saying that the weak can't say they aren't evil just because they don't have the power commit evil acts.

I can't recall the context, assuming it even has one, but it could very well be a comment on how weak individuals form their values. Weakness, smallness, softness, reserved (no claws) = "good" (nice, charitable, pacifist). See Nietzsche's "Ressentiment" and comments on asceticism or Christianity.

Also, it lacks almost half the quote :

“Of all evil I deem you capable: Therefore I want good from you. Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws.”

Sometimes I wonder why people only take the part they like of a quote and then misuse it...

This guy seems completely psycho, and to add to the others : no, I would not like that guy to defend ''us'' even if he knows how to fight, in fact I would be scared of him more than anything.

You know wars are primarily fought from long distances, with guns, right? Or does MMA training include firing range experience too?

Doubt its true

Even if that was true, he's still in the wrong. He could have just walked away instead of beating her to near death. But we all know its bullshit, past crimes with him grabbing a pornstar by her hair and then beating up male stars who tried to help her isn't painting him as someone who isn't mentally unstable with rage.

If you're relating to the man in this story this strongly over anything else, you need to get help for everyone's sake.

"GAF defends anything" currently in session, I see.

But really, why would anyone defend this monster? He's not a functional human being and as such he doesn't belong with the rest of society. No, sadly hugs don't cure actual mental conditions.
 
hopefully this guy is laying in a ditch somewhere, but I'm sure he's on a comfy couch eating cheetos or something.

can't believe he's eluded police for this long.

Hugs is not alpha. He'd probably try to punch you if you try to hug him :p

If that's a serious concern of yours, honestly really go talk to someone. They can help you and you won't need to be scared about hurting others or yourself anymore.

3) along with step 2), slowly force their prey to stop contacting friends, family, cowokers... anyone really... for isolation purposes, thus enforcing the prey to rely on the manipulator even more
4) the abuse begins: starts with verbal slander ("you can't do that, you will never achieve this and that, you're nothing without me") to threats to actual physical abuse

I don't buy this. Christy Mack fucks other men, wins awards, and receives constant praise from her fans. I wouldn't say she was isolated and depraved.

What if some women are just turned on by dominant men? I think the most likely scenario is that Christy Mack was always sort of turned on by Koppenhaver's behavior, but he just went way too far this time. She made a conscious choice to engage in a relationship with a professional fighter who had a violent history, including violence towards women. She took a risk and it went sour.

Did she deserve to get beaten up like this due to her poor choice in men? Of course not. If Koppenhaver wasn't in fear of his life, then he should be locked up for a long time. I'm just saying that Christy Mack made some poor choices and should learn from them. Assuming she was being unwittingly manipulated the whole time is more demeaning towards her, in my opinion.

I used to train at the same Gym as War Machine. True story. He used to walk around the gym kicking people's dogs if they were in front of him when he was walking around. I remember people would just kind of accept it. Sad.

Of course, this was long ago, before his first UFC fight or even being on Ultimate Fighter. But still says alot about his character.

Real gem of a human being.

Why are people bringing dogs to the gym?
