Ridiculous that someone gets indicted for spanking their kids.

There is a line that can be crossed with that though. Discipline is one thing, but if it is severe enough to cause injury that's a different matter. Spanking and beating are different things, and sometimes it's difficult to tell where the line is. One article I read said there were cuts on the boys back, bottom, and legs. It may have been severe.
Of course it was also the boys mother who reported it, and there may have been an agenda with things being exaggerated. I don't know.
So beating your kids and wife/GF is apparently ok now?
It's psychotic to hit your kids with sticks. If you can't get the point across in a better way, you're a terrible parent.
George Carlin hit the nail on the head when he spoke about the pussification of America.
Yeah, maybe he should have hit him with a hammer.

Yes I have. But do we know that these marks are from Peterson?
May be he did take his disciplining too far. Or may be these pictures aren't reflective of what AP actually did to him. But certainly not going to label him as a child abuser based off some pictures on the Internet.

I refuse to have an opinion until Ray Rice and Ray McDonald weigh in on the story.

Can take some people out of the hood...can't take the hood out of them.
The entire league is a disgrace.
