Issue: Domestic Violence Ray Rice
First View: Ray Rice hitting his wife.
Authors: Ed Payne and Steve Almasy, CNN reporters
Facts and Opinions: A bombshell video shows Ray Rice knocking out his now-wife on a casino elevator. Another shows him dragging her off. Rice, who was released Monday by the Baltimore Ravens, and his then-fiancee, Janay Palmer, got into an altercation on an elevator in the casino in Atlantic City on February 15. Rice knocked her out with a punch to the head then dragged her -- face down -- out of the elevator. "One thing I can say is that sometimes in life, you will fail," Rice said. "But I won’t call myself a failure. Failure is not getting knocked down; it’s not getting up."
Second View: Ray Rice isn't alone.

Facts and Opinions: Close to one in five men admits he has hit, slapped, kicked or otherwise attacked a wife or girlfriend, researchers say. It’s a rare look at domestic violence not from the point of view of the victim, but from the aggressor’s side. “If men could enter responses in a private way, the percentage could have been even higher,”
Reader's View and Why: Hitting your wife or any woman is wrong. Men are built stronger than women so they will always have an advantage when it comes to fighting. You shouldn't become so angry to the point where you have to place your hands on your wife in a violent manner. That is unbelievable.
