Sick to my stomach of all of the brain-damaged contrarians, mostly all hillbillies, who I've heard so much from today either in posts on the internet or calls into sports radio shows.  It always goes something like this "I got desspleened when I wus young, my mama wuld whup me, an it made me the purson I um today!"
 
Fucking morons, there's a couple missed facts in your incredible analysis.  First the kid did not get spanked.  I got spanked by a babysitter via a ping pong paddle when I was young and that was probably a good thing for me, although my mom was not impressed.  This was a whipping by a weapon that draws blood.  Medieval shit.  And second, and probably should be first, I can't believe this point is lost on so many people, that KID IS FOUR.  Four.  He can't speak a full sentence, can't piss on his own, can't comprehend why his father is torturing him with a whip.
 
Dude should be in prison.  I'm embarrassed to be a human with so many people thinking he doesn't.

From ESPN a few minutes ago:
 

 
Adrian Peterson, already facing felony charges in Texas for child abuse, was accused in a separate incident involving another son who is 4 years old, KHOU-TV in Houston has reported, allegations the Minnesota Vikings running back's lawyer said were unfounded and more than a year old.
The CBS affiliate cites text messages that reportedly include a photo of the son with an apparent head wound covered by bandages.
Peterson was indicted by a grand jury on charges of reckless or negligent injury to a child on Friday.
Peterson, who apologized in a statement Monday for "the hurt I have brought to my child," also said he will testify in court that he did not intend to harm his son and said he is "without a doubt, not a child abuser."
The Houston TV station reported the mother of the 4-year-old -- from a different mother than the child he stands charged with abusing -- filed a report with Child Protective Services but no charges were filed.
Peterson attorney Rusty Hardin said in a statement that the accusation was more than a year old and that "authorities took no action." 
"An adult witness admittedly insists Adrian did nothing inappropriate with his son," Hardin said in the statement to media.
The reported text exchange was as follows, according to KHOU-TV:
Mother: "What happened to his head?"
Peterson: "Hit his head on the Carseat."
Mother: "How does that happen, he got a whoopin in the car."
Peterson: "Yep."
Mother: "Why?"
Peterson: "I felt so bad. But he did it his self."
According to the report, Peterson then goes on to say he was disciplining his son for cursing at a sibling, though how specifically the child was wounded wasn't made clear.
Mother: "What did you hit him with?"
Peter never directly answered, the report said, but later replied: "Be still n take ya whooping he would have saved the scare (scar). He aight (all right)."
When asked about the new accusation, Adrian Peterson's father, Nelson, said, "I haven't seen that report. I haven't heard any allegations."
Peterson has faced heavy criticism for his use of a so-called switch to discipline the other son, but the running back said in his statement that he "never imagined being in a position where the world is judging my parenting skills or calling me a child abuser because of the discipline I administered to my son."
The Vikings deactivated Peterson for Sunday's game against the New England Patriots butannounced in a statement on Monday that Peterson will play on Sunday against the New Orleans Saints, adding they will let the legal process play out before deciding on further action. The NFL's only comment came on Saturday, when spokesman Brian McCarthy said the league will review Peterson's case "under the NFL's personal conduct policy."
Peterson is scheduled to enter a plea at an Oct. 8 hearing in Conroe, Texas, after his indictment for reckless or negligent injury to a child. Peterson faces up to two years in prison and a $10,000 fine if found guilty.

Okay I change my previous opinion. suspend him for good. 

 

[BwareDWare94]

He's already been cleared of that charge, so even if there's credence to it, the NFL can't use it. It's unfortunate. I honestly think I'd prefer the Vikings cut him, at this point. 

These people need to understand that it is not impossible for them to have their foundation shattered.

I'm guessing Rick Spielman is drinking himself to sleep tonight considering this sentence.

I had the press conference on the radio, earlier. I've never heard Rick Spielman sound more spineless. I've loved his draft picks and trades (sans Ponder, that is), but he was clearly shaken by this situation and the way other parties of power decided to handle it.
 
I really doubt Zimmer had anything to do with re-activating him. Mike seems like a stand-up guy. The Wilfs, and Spielman--I just don't know.

his back?! that kid wasn't getting disciplined, he was getting straight up beaten, southern style.

Which is why most don't understand it.. It's commonplace down here..

Whether you view it as right or wrong is up to you.. But spanking/beating a kid IMO is ok

A switch is a little worse cause it stings.. But it's better then your pops cold knocking yo ass out.. Or at least the breath out ya...how I came up

Something's aren't the publics business though.. This being one.

to each their own, i suppose. as a parent, i think my outlook varies from others on the site.

time out and little shit like that do not work. i was shown as a young kid that i needed to fear my dad if i did something so naturally i wanted to instill fear on my daughter. not like im ever going to beat her, but still. she has to fear my hand. ill never smack her, only spankings. hitting with anything else is too much. i was only hit with a flat hand, but i knew at the age of 10 not to cross that line.

i was a fairly bad kid too.

 

[Mobruler]

I feel like the whole "four years old" thing is going way over the heads of some people.  I can't believe dez even typed that post that you had to respond too.

 

[BwareDWare94]

I will intervene if I see a parent hitting their child with an object. Simple as that. You should, too.

 

[dez]

I'm not saying what he did was right it's just part of southern culture. A switch is over the top, but obviously that's the way ap was brought up.

And bware, I don't think that would be smart lol

Where does the line get drawn? Why is it ok for a complete stranger to tell you how to raise your kid? Lol

There's a BIG difference between spanking/disciplining and abuse..

 

[Mobruler]

Well we're clearly talking about abuse here.  So many people have been bringing up the moral compass of whether it's okay to spank you kids while talking about this specific situation, and it's an insult to everyone else's sensibilities. 

 

[dez]

What some consider abuse is disciplining to others.

Just like your mind is set on it being abuse, mines saying it's common.. Again, not saying it was right.. A hand or belt suffices.. But him being that boys father he has every right to discipline him.

Just one of those topics that's really tough to find common ground

 

[Mobruler]

So is it abuse or not abuse?  And if it is, him being that boy's father, does he have every right to abuse him?

Because you shouldn't be hitting your kid with an object. I don't care about southern culture. Cultures used to sacrifice people to "gods." Clearly that got weeded out, and so can hitting kids out of laziness.

 

[dez]

I say it isn't, that's me. And re read what I said.. I said he gas the right to discipline him.

Bware I get what your saying but what gives YOU the right, is what I'm saying. You can play hero, but you most likley just making it worse..

 

[dez]

But I ain't all for this back n forth lol

Agree to disagree

 

[Mobruler]

Face palm.

 

[dcpwner]

Yeah I'm of the opinion that more Neanderthal child beaters should be put away. I'm sorry but isn't knowing what a switch feels like reason enough to not use it? Parents need to discipline their children, sure, I get it, but use an object with nerve endings and not something that has an opportunity to leave a child with a cut on his scrotum or pain getting dressed in the morning. Please...no child should fear getting punched in the face after a whipping just because its so called "cultural" that's fucking stupid and ignorant as all hell.
