It's all decisions... You can make every excuse in the world; but life is about choices.... I was raised in a home with only my Mother and Sister 90% of my life. Didn't lead me down a road of destruction. It taught me respect for the women that sacrifice their careers/freedom/interests to take over the Role of Mother and Father for deadbeats.

These kids have choices to make, you either become an addict cause your pops was or you stay sober cause you saw your dad on drugs. NO ONE is subject to an outcome due to an environment, is it easier to fall victim? YEP. Are you REQUIRED to be a victim? Nope.

Couldn’t agree more. One race leads the nation in broken homes, and is no coincidence they lead the nation in crime as well. That’s not an attack. It’s just the numbers. Family means something. Until society is ready to have uncomfortable conversations about uncomfortable topics without resulting to “you’re a racist”, much will stay the same.

As a lifelong Bengal fan, I've hated several of their draft picks over the years. Drafting this douche in the 3rd round was stupid considering the risk/reward and other available prospects. Jalen McMillan was available and he's been very productive for a playoff Tampa team.
Burton has been Inactive for way too many games due to behavior/ performance in practice.

Knew this was coming as well. Like I said until we are ready to have uncomfortable conversations nothing changes. People(you) aren’t ready for those conversations and prefer to just bury your head in the sand and accuse others of being bigots. Google is free. Crime statistics are free. My comments are based on outright stats and knowledge. Not hate. But you already knew that. I hope these numbers one day improve, for every race.

It maybe as you say one “race” leading it but it is not a problem specific to any race.

The issues in play here are a lack of moral male leadership and in general a lack of moral leadership in our families whether they are an in tact home, a blended home or a single parent home.

We have issues of the heart in this country/world leading to moral failures and a decline in society.

No need to make this about race as all races have these heart/moral issues.

In the article it said he was being evicted from his apartment. How the hell do you get evicted when you’re making that kind of $$? I’ve always thought that guy was an overrated hot head . Clown

Choking a female because he can’t manage money and threatening self harm because he sucks.

Real upstanding citizen.

I say cuff him and let the girls dad be alone with him a room with full immunity.

Let him feel wrath of a scorned father.

While I 100% agree every race has room to do better, at the same time you don’t get to make your own facts. The facts are what I stated, and the facts overwhelmingly show that homes not “intact” are much more likely to be a product of states issues.

Am I reading this right? You are effectively saying it's a state issue and deflecting off the fact this guy is a grown adult, as are his parents whether they were around or not, and it's his decisions that led to him beating women? The state is the reason he beats women?

I really hope I read that wrong. Otherwise, that's an entirely different topic. Casting blame instead of taking ownership.

Not calling you a bigot. Not calling you a hater. Just asking you to state the race. You are getting way ahead of yourself.
