We have three distinct types of behavior from Mr. Williams. Drinking at an event. This is simply a rules breaking. Honestly, stupid but not that horrific. Kicking over a basket in frustration or property damage. Rules breaking of a higher order. Double dumb and churlish, but mostly, a complaint directed at something other than a person. The third is what I have a problem with. At Ledgstone BW went after a player on his card, not because that player did something wrong, but because BW was having a bad round and needed to take it out on someone else. Then in the next round, after BW sucked it up on a single hole, he took it out on a second player, who then filed a complaint.
Let's look for a moment at Nikko, who commenters often give as a comparison. Nikko has blow ups too and for the same reasons. His blow ups are always, always directed at himself. BWs blow ups, at least in this case, are directed at someone else. That is the point where BW lost my support. It takes a particularly small person to go after someone else when things are bad for themselves. Dirty, you can call me a whimp for thinking BW is a donkey for lacking the balls to look in the mirror when his play vacuums. That he is such a pussy cat that he will attack another player because he isn't man enough to give credit for his lousy play to himself.
I'm not a fan of the whole safe space thing. Life is full of jerks and dealing with them is a necessary skill. But it is typically my observation that the guys we create safe spaces for are guys like BW who've acted like jerks. Oh look, he's a donkey, let's all be careful not to hurt his feelings.
Now, I've defended BW in the past, but he seems unrepentant in his behavior and unapologetic about acting like a turd. Oh wait, all you "bullied" people, you need to take care of poor BW or you're whimps. No we don't, at least not until he deals with his problems.
