Liberal logic. In order to avoid suicides in the future no more player bans.
Over on the Twitter threads they are saying he was linked to pedophilia.
To her credit, Tonya Harding made it through the tunnel.
Looking back on her story, I would have advised her to join one the services after her ban from skating, perhaps change her name on induction, get her GED, and training in a post-service career field. ...Had I ever been in a position to do so!

Nothing says "not guilty" like immediate suicide. /s
O M G....LOVE THIS
That was straight out funny, the way they used to be before
getting Trumped.
I see Tonya Harding on TV fairly regularly. She managed to turn her misfortune into a career. I don’t think she’s done bad for herself at all.

Sexual predator could not face being exposed for his crimes. Didn’t realize he still will face judgement beyond anything he could have imagined.
Doubly teagic
Reruns of worlds dumbest....
One of the funniest shows ever

Sad. RIP.
