This is pretty fucked.
But one question, I looked up this guy elsewhere. Other news agencies aren't as liberal with the sprinkling of added juicy details. I assume the Daily Mail made it up. As they are prone to do.
When you link to an unreliable source, you do understand that it casts doubt on the alleged crime?
In this case the Daily Mail was correct (minus the details added for effect). But my first instinct is... probably bullshit. I had to look it up in more reputable sources to find enough details to accept that I should be outraged.
Me personally, I think athletes should be allowed to be racists, homophobes, flat Earthers or Muslims. Or whatever their little hearts desire. And they should be allowed to express it wherever. They're not hired for their ability to think. It shouldn't matter.
Why should you be outraged?
Outrage is a handle by which propagandists manipulate people. It engenders zero value to the individual who is outraged; Indeed, it provides a mechanism by which the outraged individual can be influenced to act against their own self interest.
Outrage against the actions of a close family member or friend might be appropriate if that person acts in a grossly inappropriate way. But outrage against a stranger is an act of self harm.
Much of today's "news" media consists not of information, but of invitations to outrage. These invitations should be declined by anyone who is not directly and intimately involved with the events being described. To accept them is to hand control of your emotions to people who do not have your best interests at heart.
I for one am not granting the Daily Mail any access to my emotional state, if I can possibly avoid so doing. And the same goes for ANY other player in the media space. Invitations to outrage should be seen as attempts to manipulate and control you, and the wise person would respond not with outrage against the proposed target, but against the medium presenting the invitation. Who do these cunts think they are to tell you what to think and feel? Where do these fuckers get off presenting their emotional hooks as though they were impartial information?
This vile manipulative behaviour certainly ranks near the top of the list of existential threats to our civilisation. Let's not be complicit in adding to the issue.
