Bengals fans assumed that a professional athlete put on line that he was going to actually, physically kill another human being. The rest of the world seems to think he means mess him up.
Clearly it was a matter of emotions getting in the way of sense.

The term paint comes is a militaristic phrase "painting a target with a laser". Ive used it before, it seems recently common thugs have just adopted it.
