Ray Rice

[yankees506]

No man should ever place his hands on another woman, this video watched in its entirety gives off the feeling of an abusive relationship both ways. The clip I saw appears to show rice spitting on his then fiancée before they enter the elevator and her reacting with a backhanded slap to the face. A toxic relationship is never good for anyone, ray and his now wife have a lot to figure out.

He drug her out of an elevator unconscious. He admitted to knocking her out.
All of this before the elevator footage.
And now everyone is mad and saying he deserves more punishment?????????????

And where were these voices when he admitted to knocking her out???????

And just for the record in case my post left any question where I stand...
He should be banned from the league for life.

I think a lot of people were holding off judgement until they were sure of what actually happened in that elevator. I know self-defense is a stupid argument when you're a fit NFL athlete fighting a woman half your size, but there was that side of it being thrown around. The issue I have is that the NFL saw this video and moved forward with their paltry punishment. The Ravens could have been easily advised by the NFL on how to proceed. And how did they proceed? They praised Rice as a "good guy" and promoted the hell out of him.

The Ravens and his teammates stood behind him 100%.

Exactly, and if any of them have any self-respect, they'll admit they made the wrong decision to do so. But I guarantee all of them will keep quiet.

Like those marchers in Ferguson acting like idiots without knowing anything that really happened.

To watch his lack of compassion or reget after what he just did, was really shocking to me.
