I wouldn't slap my wife, but Ray Rice is not me and neither is he obliged to be.
If a woman doesn't want to risk being hit by a man, then SHE needs to exercise restraint before she starts a physical confrontation. In today's world of EQUALITY all bets are off at that point. No one should be allowed to attack someone physically and then be exonerated of all guilt and consequences. If you can't win a physical fight, don't start one. That's the safest route a woman can take. On 9/9/2014 10:46 AM, Scott Stewart wrote: > The shot that Rice threw wouldn't pass most states reasonable force > statutes if he hit a man.
