There is nothing like pointing fingers at other activities to lose your case. True or not, it sounds like deflection and whining, which will cause you to lose any credibility. They are also red herrings -- the core issue is whether your circumstances merit the proposed consequences.
Pretend you are a defendant in court. For example, you are cited for speeding and distracted driving. The fact that others are texting and speeding is irrelevant --- YOU were caught. You need either to focus on factual errors (not excuses but where the facts presented are genuinely wrong) or mitigating circumstances. Whatever other wrongs there may be, the others are not on trial.
A novel or a rant serves only to solidify thinking that termination is the correct decision. (I have to admit that a continuing string of infractions does not look good.)
You need to focus on the facts and really reflect on them. They may seem "unfair" to you, but in an honest assessment, are they right?
