What in the world was Artest DEFENDING himself from? He wasn't defending -- he was RETALIATING. The police/security are supposed to handle the cup thrower. Not Artest.
"The police/security are supposed to handle the cup thrower."
You may have noticed,police/security didn't do a bang-up job in Auburn Hills last night.
This had been going on for some time and it was obvious security wasn't doing anything to try to control the situation. Look, I am not an Artest fan and for the most part think he is a thug. But he had taken himself out of the situation and the fans decided in inject themselves in to it by throwing beer at him.
