Cardale Jones is very pissed off about how social media is handling the news of Dwayne Haskins being a victim of domestic violence.
Taking to Twitter on Thursday, the former Ohio State quarterback called out the double standard of people laughing at Haskins getting his tooth knocked out by his wife, but would be calling for him to be cut if the roles had been reversed.
“The same people making all these jokes and laughing about Dwayne Haskins being a victim of domestic violence, are the same people that would’ve been calling for his HEAD if the roles were flipped!” Jones tweeted. “No form of violence towards ANYONE is acceptable and damn sure isn’t funny.”
“Out of all the languages in the world you could’ve spoken, you chose to speak facts,” one fan replied.
“Well said, Mr. Jones. People don’t have any common sense online,” wrote another.
“Yes unfortunately, men can also be victims of domestic violence. So laughing at Dwayne Haskins just shows how uneducated people are,” another fan wrote in a retweet. “DV IS NO LAUGHING MATTER, regardless who the victim is.”
Haskins and his wife Kalabrya Gondrezick-Haskins were involved in an alleged altercation in Las Vegas earlier this month, with the Steelers quarterback sustaining “bodily harm” including a busted lip and a missing tooth.
Haskins and his wife got in an argument that escalated, resulting in Haskins’ wife punching him in the face. Police showed up and found blood and a piece of a tooth in Haskins’ hotel room in Vegas.
