then it shouldn’t be a hard act to end the careers of those who commit serious acts of violence, shouldn’t it?

Ending the careers of these players is going to help victims, how?

Look, Ray Lewis may have killed someone. No one uttered a peep. Ray Rice beats his fiancé up, and the sports and political world goes nuts.

Obama says he doesn't want his kid playing football if he had a son. Many Mothers are pulling their sons from Pee Wee and Pop Warner leagues.

Open your eyes and realize what's happening. Liberals don't like football because it promotes civic pride, community, and togetherness. No doubt that after 9/11 when football resumed, they were quietly seething with rage at the unity among Americans.

If football is destroyed, what's to stop the Left from going after hunting? NASCAR? All sports in general because some people win and some lose and that's just not fair waaah?

You don't get it

By preventing more victims, because if a football player knows his career is over upon the first serious act of criminality, he might act better. If he doesn’t, than the NFL will eventually filter out bad actors and the game might return to respectability.

Don’t blame liberals for what they are doing to the NFL. The league and your personal tolerance of this is what is fueling the ability of liberals to do this. If football players were the kind of people that kids could look up to, the liberals could not touch the league.

No, just to head off any accusations, I’m not being anti-football. I’m just being anti-excuse for bad human beings.
