My point is that Netizen stated that December 2004 was after his involvement with his church, implying that this was still going on at that point, and you agreed. His offenses took place more than a year before that.
I'm certainly not excusing his drug use, but people do change, and he seems to have done so.
And for the record, I have never criticized Scott on FR. I can't stand him - but I don't like his attitude or his singing. If he's straightened himself out, as Bo appears to have done, I'm happy for him.
Scott's attitude turned me off way back before he even made the final cut.
Remember when they did that 'group' song and he
refused to even practice with his group?
Scott is not likable, period.
It's not his looks.
It's not his weight.
It's not his police record.
It's him.
OK guys...
Let's "get real" here.
Some of you guys are as bad as those who defended Clinton by saying that Oral Sex isn't really sex.
If you threw a phone at your wife and hit her with it so hard it broke, don't you think she would consider that an assault?? (Now you Slingblade lovers are going to say it's the phone's fault for breaking.)
You say "don't let the facts get in the way," but here are the facts:
1) Savol and his brother arrived at Martin's home, an argument ensued, with Savol calling Martin "several vulgar names." - nice mouth scotty boy
2) He then grabbed the woman's hand and pulled an engagement ring off her finger and "stated he was also going to take their son," cops reported. - Sorry, but grabbing a ring off someone's finger will actually cause pain, contrary to previous posts.
3) When Savol "grabbed the baby," Martin "stopped him from taking the child by telling [Savol] that she was going to call 911."
4) At that point, according to the police report, Savol shoved Martin, pulled a phone from her hand, and then threw it at Martin, striking her in the chest. "This caused the phone to break," the report notes. - OK so he also SHOVED this girl...have you seen the size of Scottyboy? And there's that phone thing that everyone seems to bring up.
5) When officers arrived at her home, Martin told them that Savol had "made verbal threats to her in the past by telling her to 'watch her back.'" - nice guy.
Sorry, but I've dealt with guys like that and have no respect for them. How many of you would let Scott date your daughters?
OK....now someone will post "she deserved it" like a woman who gets raped because she wears a short skirt.
Now, Bo wasn't selling drugs. He wasn't hurting anyone but himself. And he's cleaned himself up.
