Anyone who claims that the NFL has less 'domestic abuse' than the general population

[lunatica]

3. If you watch both CNN and MSNBC lately

You hear what I hear. NFL players are coming out supposedly to voice their shock that any domestic abuse exists and what wonderful men the abusers are. Shock I tell you!

But most of the intend for posting what I did is that it's far easier than you would think that no one notices the abuse that's going on. The abused person can present a lie of having a great marriage very successfully. People who wonder why the abused stays are not tied down by considerations of all the factors that go into staying in such a relationship. The worst part is the feeling that it's only happening to you and that you must be to blame because you've provoked the beatings. You feel so much shame that you feel you can't talk to anyone. And your very life is at stake. At some point in the ongoing abuse the abused spouse realizes it will definitely end in their death if they don't get away.

Don't get me wrong. I don't blame the players or the NFL singularly. Domestic violence is much more common in every community and economic level than people are aware of. After all, it's all behind closed doors. The one's who have been caught at it were caught because in one case he was in a public place and caught on camera and in another case his son had to be taken to a doctor who did his duty of reporting it. It's not just an NFL problem or a Black problem. It's a universal problem that doesn't have anything to do with country or upbringing or religion. I even think it's rampant across the planet. Many times it is overtly championed by religion or government and is actually enforced by the government itself. In the so called developed countries it's much more secretive and hidden from view.
