This is what I am saying is the problem. An arrest is much more serious for an average person than a 3-5 game suspension for a professional athlete. If Artest and and Stephen Jackson were throwing unprovoked punches at fans, they should also face prosecution.

well what do you want to do about the fans then? suspend them? put them under house arrest?....they are at fault, they deserve what they get
if no one threw anything and artest walked into the stands for a brawl because someone was saying something to him, then yeah you go ahead and arrest him...but if he's provoked by bottle hitting him, then no he doesn't deserve an arrest..a suspension suffices
