Longer version of Ray Rice video shows argument before punch, reaction of hotel staff
NATIONAL POST ^ | September 9, 2014 | Rob Maaddi

Ray Rice and Janay Palmer can be heard shouting obscenities at each other, and she appears to spit in the face of the three-time Pro Bowl running back right before he throws a brutal punch in a video shown to The Associated Press by a law enforcement official.

The video, shown to the AP Monday night, includes audio and is longer than the grainy TMZ Sports video released earlier that day...

No one cared about this until they see the video then they get it. There is a lesson here that we can tap into. Video evidence of a crime is powerful stuff. We need more damaging videos of dems that even their constituents may not wish to endure.

She is defending him and blaming the press for destroying their life/marriage. This is as of today.

I don’t know, how many videos are out there showing a women being knocked out cold by a man? Much less a public personality? In fact if this was a nobody it would be big news. Not to this level but it would warrant a freerepulic post.

Sometimes Harvey Levin & his crew of misfits do the country a big favor.

This is one of those times.

To me, it looks like self defense on his part.

Ray Rice better have you on the jury after he kills her.

Ray Rice clearly spits on her outside the elevator by the column he's standing next too.

Rice has a history of spitting. In the video at this link (deadspin) you can see him spit on Browns DL Phil Taylor. He spits at him and Taylor takes a swipe at his helmet.

So when the government cameras catch your every move and you lose your livelihood and possessions over what is on film, will you be ok with that? The video could have been staged by the couple for all anyone knows. The guy is being railroaded by perceptions and not facts. His wife already forgave him and then marrried him. Maybe there is more to the story. Maybe it was mutual combat and the knockout came from the accidental hitting of her head on the hand bar. But that matters not at all, he’s guilty and needs to have his life totally destroyed.

I don’t know if I would go that far but when you combine alcohol and rectal vents (on both sides) the outcome is predictable.

“and needs to have his life totally destroyed.”

Dude, his street cred just skyrocketed. Probably be back in the NFL before the season ends.

She was defending him (Her meal ticket?) and I pictured her saying, “Why do I love him? I don’t know..he just...
knocks me out...”

Black males commit murder at a rate of more than seven times the rate of whites.

So black males are violent, and that is not a myth. Black females are more violent, too.

She provoked him, and he simply did what comes most naturally—resort to violence.

Is it genetic, or learned? Does that matter, when you are the victim?

The question in my mind is: does white America continue to reward such violence, with big money watching their gang signs, their music, buying their clothing styles, watching them play “sports” (run and jump)?

I see two spots team owners getting out now, before team values diminish.

After taxes, accountants, agents, lawyers, etc. and mortgages based on future income, he will be lucky to cover the bus fare back to his momma's basement.

"Where is the police repor? Does it mention the video?"

------------------>

She didn't press charges but if you witnessed this, wouldn't you call Crimestoppers and report the incident?

Without siding with either, wouldn't you still report the incident?

The man holding the elevator door - does he have a walkie/talkie type of thing. Was he garage security? Did he have any obligation to report?

Not referring to "you" as you, Dacula. When I reread it, it looked like I was.

Just wanted to be clear it was a generic "you"!

Wait a minute you are missing a lot of facts. He already admitted having a fight with her and there was a video of him dragging her unresponsive body out of the elevator. They both said she passed out from alcohol and that he didn’t punch her. That was clearly a lie as she was knocked out from a punch to the head in the now released video.
