« on: August 28, 2014, 03:14:20 pm »
What are folk's thoughts about the NFL's stance on domestic abuse and their change in policy?

i'm glad they did something but i think a 2 strikes your out policy is a little knee jerk reaction-ish, i would like to know more about it before i make a definitive decision on how i feel about it

I don't know enough about it to really comment on it.

I think it's for show. Even Ray Rice wasn't convicted of domestic abuse. Sadly, most DV cases are plead down for a much lesser charge, so I don't see this policy doing much.

I'm glad that NFL did that. But this player that abused his fiance should have gotten a harsher punishment. But I guess it's something that we don't think could happen until it actually does.

It's about time they did something because the players have been getting away with murder like their above the law because they're rich and famous.

it's about time, they've been getting away with murder for the longest. They're sport professionals  not an idol or god and must follow all social rules and regulations just like the rest of us!
