It's been going on forever, and I was a part of it too.

That doesn't make it right, nor is it something I believe is right to pass on to your kids.

I do believe that alcohol is a large factor in both spousal and child abuse. And, there's been a tradition of shrugging off a lot of things that occur from people that are drunk or on many types of drugs. So, lots of the incidents get shugged off as an "Oh, Johnny got drunk again" type incident.

Fact is, it's wrong. And those of us that have been through that abuse need to speak up and tell other ADULTS that it's wrong too. I'd much rather see our prison systems used for people like this rather than the countless people incarcerated for marijuana possession.

This is a societal problem though, not an NFL problem...so that starts going into political discussions...so I'll leave it at that.
