Some seem to give you a pass based on your age, or if it only happens once...and especially if you ask for forgiveness and seem genuine. Chris Brown got clowned for crying at the 2010 awards, but plenty folks seemed to feel like he was sorry. Even though he did a lot of damage later from other events that showed his craziness.

I can understand why Floyd gets more hate than most...seeing that it's been like 12 incidents, 5-6 different women, and then the fact that he'll never own up to it and just call it "allegations." With that, I feel a lot of folks will give him a "pass" (depends on what you consider a pass) until they actually see a video of proof, which is what made so many folks hate Ray Rice, even though a lot of them had never heard of him before. Sadly, that's how it feels a lot of times...videos or at least picture proof are what really make it stick in folks heads forever.
