Ray Rice and the NFL

Well what do you know about that, the Baltimore Ravens as a franchise and the Bisciotti's as a family had the social and moral courage to do what the gutless National Football League would not. Fire Ray Rice for his actions. The NFL then suspended Rice "indefinitely." He should be never allowed to play football again. A steep price must b e paid by this man for his actions. I generally don't support ruining a man's livelihood if he is being punished by the law, but there are certain offenses that require serious consequences. We as a society need to punish child molesters, elder abusers, and women beaters. We can not let these crimes go un or under punished. These must be met with the loss of freedom, money and reputation. The death penalty for ones character. The loss must be tangible, and catastrophic in nature. A slap on the wrist for these crimes should no longer be tolerated by us as individuals, us as a society, or us as Americans. Maybe if we do not tolerate this behavior then these athletes and their employers won't either, and will punish more harshly. Ray Rice is worthless as a human being, and always will be, maybe later on he can and will redeem himself, I don't know, we are a country of second chances, and he may be back. As for now  he needs to pay, and so does the NFL. The NFL is such a myopic organization that they border on the stupid. When drug offenses and dog fighting get more time than the beating of a huiman being then something is wrong with the thinking. That is where the NFL has to pay a cost, even if it only is in the form of publicity. That may be the best way to change their thinking considering the operate on publicity. Have a nice day all.
