Actually, the father son team assaulted the Royals first base coach. Fans run onto the field of play in all sports, in the NFL some guy runs onto the field during a Philly game and spreads his late mothers ashes which at the time apeared to be a white powder supstance(a security threat?), a fan runs onto the field and steals the ball from Favre. These non-violent examples of events easily could have turned the other way, is this a result of lack of security? Should there be security guards on every inch of the field at all times including pre-games and post-game until every fan has left the building, or in every isle in every row of the arena to police everyone and make sure they are all holding hands?
AD didn't go into the stands fists a blazing. So that makes it ok for a player to jump into the stand and play the part of sucruity superhero? So should any player be allowed at any time to enter the stands and confront a fan who he thinks is disrespecting or touching a member of their family? If AD was not suspended as harshly I can guarentee you that the thought of going into the stands for any insane reason would cross the mind of every player. They would see it as ok and would not be punished as long as they didn't throw any punches, Because I'M protecting my family. it would be a fxxkin circus every night.
