Georgia fans defending him like he is your actual family is also weird.

The boy on the banjo was indeed from Georgia.
The mountain men rapists were from Tennessee and South Carolina, however.
Just like people clearly make the distinction that Forrest Gump is actually from California instead of Alabama?
And the actors from Tenn and SC are not actually rapist just so we are clear.

The way the media has put forward what happened is actually kind of silly.
I was at PT this morning and the therapists there were talking about him. They all thought he was driving the car that crashed and killed two people and that he was drunk.
When I told them he was in another car and reports were that they were racing, and that he did not test positive for alcohol, they were confused because that wasn't how it was being talked about. They had no idea what happened, but everything they heard made it out like he had killed someone, not that he was racing another car while sober and the driver of that other car crashed and died and killed a passenger.
They then said, "so it was a hit and run". I had to explain that the other car crashed into a tree and he wasn't actually in an accident. He was just driving recklessly.
They then wondered why people were talking about it the way they were.

And just so we're clear, backwards/backwoods folks have never been depicted in film from anywhere else but Georgia, right?
That stereotype is not just a Georgia one. It's shared with almost every state represented in the SEC.

It was a link to a tweet where a reporter made a blooper. There are plenty of other threads to inject your arguments. This wasn't a defense in any way.

A couple of problems with this place is that few people understand tongue-in-cheek posts and that people react to the title of a post without actually reading through the post or clicking on the links. It’s a Rant dynamic that makes subtle humor virtually impossible.

He is a talented athlete but it is best to reserve judgement until the legal stuff plays out.

It's literally like telling a political joke at a night club and someone in the audience debating you as if you're Ben Shapiro speaking at some university.
