If the news accounts are accurate, this is what pisses me off about the
Mike Tyson affair:

1.  A fender bender is not a reason to attack two strangers.
2.  When bodyguards have to restrain a former heavyweight champion boxer
from bullying two men in their 50's and 60's.
3.  When said bodyguards pull the keys from the ignition to prevent anyone
from leaving.  Isn't that theft?  I wonder why Tyson's keys weren't pulled.
4.  Fleeing the scene of an accident.
5.  Being tracked down only after witnesses call police to report #4.
6.  Mouthing off to cops that you are only being pulled over because you
are African-American.  Uh, no Mr. Tyson, we have reports of you fleeing. 
Hello hit-and-run.
7.  Denying it ever happened despite numerous corroborating witnesses.

Well, I don't have any bodyguards and I don't have a high-priced lawyer,
but I'm willing to bet that if I had punched out two guys twice my age, had
my friends take their car keys and then take off, then mouthed off at some
cops...I don't think a judge would spend two minutes in making a decision
to jail my ass.

The thing that really irks me though, is that Tyson made a big stink about
converting to Islam not too long ago.  No one is perfect, but in light of
his recent actions, it appears that this religious conviction is not
serious.  It's insulting I think to make a big production about your faith
and conversion and then go about violating the tenets of said faith. 
Unless I am misunderstood, Islam doesn't teach one to beat up men twice
your age, does it?
