The weight of the world is resting on the shoulders of now former Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice. After TMZ released footage of what happen between Ray Rice and his now wife Janay Rice, President Obama released a statement via his White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest.

White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said yesterday:

“The President is the father of two daughters. And like any American, he believes that domestic violence is contemptible and unacceptable in a civilized society.”

“Hitting a woman is not something a real man does, and that’s true whether or not an act of violence happens in the public eye, or, far too often, behind closed doors.”

“Stopping domestic violence is something that’s bigger than football – and all of us have a responsibility to put a stop to it.”
