Question: How much money would you sell your soul for, so your man can keep his job, even if it included a "lights out" punch right up under your pearly white bicuspids? Do you think sticking together through a severe case of domestic abuse is the true definition of love or is Ms. Janay Rice sticking around for the armored trucks loaded with cash? Seriously ask yourself, would she gave him a second chance and continue to follow through with marriage and public embarrassment if Ray Rice was a store clerk at Best Buy? Probably not!
In my eyes, a man should never hit a woman unless his life is in danger. Looking at the video tape, the Rock'em Sock'em robot Ray Rice weighs about 212 lbs. and I will take a guess and say that Janay Rice weighs around 115-130 lbs. So without question he had the clear advantage of size and strength. So one would think, if he really loved his wife, why would he bring that kind of force to her head which could have killed her? Who am I to judge? Really! If Ms. Rice finds sparring with her husband in a casino elevator acceptable behavior then she will continue to reap the consequences of her decision.
....And where in the hell is Janay's father, (Joe Palmer) in all this?! Does he find this B.S. acceptable in a marriage? If I was the daddy and Janay was MY daughter! I can only see this story playing out in two ways. I would have reared my daughter to be smart enough to see the signs of a raging lunatic and bounce the hell up out of there or on the other hand, having a fiduciary responsibility as a father to protect my daughter, even if it means giving up my own life. I would have dispatched the S.E.A.L. Team 6 and Ray Ray will be saying "hello to my little friend."
In conclusion, Ray "throwing" Rice did not have a problem in rearranging his future wife's face and have her jaw swollen like Kanye West with a mouth full of Jolly Ranchers. Janay Rice was too quick to take her husband back after she just kissed the canvas like Joe Frasier in Kingston, Jamaica. It is obvious, both of them need extensive therapy sessions with Dr. Phil or any professional that can help them move into the right direction. Honestly, Ray Rice needs to grow up and become a real man and a better role model for his daughter. Janay Rice needs someone to make a large deposit of common sense into her memory bank and tell her that head shots should not be a part of the equation for love.
Finally, adults and even the teenyboppers who are in puppy love need to understand that domestic abuse is not normal and more than likely we'll not lead to a happy and fruitful relationship. A real man's hands should only touch a woman's face so he can keep her steady to plant a big kiss on her lips. Real talk!
