You're blaming the media? If the captions were different we wouldn't be bothered because the injuries by themselves aren't that severe as stuff on Bestgore? Is that what you're saying?
I'm articulate enough and precise enough in my points that if you need me to reiterate it's because of a reading comprehension problem.
You stipulated that AP caused these injuries. They are evidence of clear child abuse.
No, it isn't.
Those pictures are what child abuse looks like.
Not necessarily.
They're actual photos of child abuse.
According to Texas state law, they were actual photos of reckless assault, not child abuse. We have something here called a justice system, and in that justice system your emotional ramblings don't dictate what is and what isn't.
As you can see, even the less graphic abuse that we're allowed to see can look pretty bad.
They're switch marks on the leg. Using a switch during corporal punishment is legal in Texas and in many other states.
What part of the story is not told by the pictures?
If the complete story is told by the photograph, then please tell me the full story. Oh, right, you can't, because you weren't there. How forgetful of me.
Peterson caused those injuries to a FOUR YEAR OLD.
We know.
According to his own text messages, he didn't mean to.
And he doesn't see anything wrong with it, at least publicly.
Adrian Peterson doesn't owe you any ****ing apology. Who the **** are you? You're ****ing nobody.
Get over yourself. In no justice system does a judge sentence someone to apologize to who-the-hell-cares from a football message board.
Have you ever done anything in life that violated a law? A ten commandment? Something a neighbor might think is wrong? You owe me an apology for it.
And as far as being redeemable, do you see any sign from Peterson of any intention of modifying his behavior?
Can you direct me to the website that keeps him under surveillance via webcam in his own house so I can judge his behavior since pleading guilty to reckless assault? Oh, no such website exists? Then sign me up for a how-the-hell-should-I-know.
To me he just keeps doubling down on the idea that he did nothing wrong.
He doubled down on his belief that physically disciplining his child isn't wrong.
So I see no reason to explain why he wouldn't whip his child again.
Which is legal in the state of Texas and elsewhere.
Does that sound like a good candidate for redemption right now?
Apparently he needs to come apologize to you first.
