You're sick of people wanting to know more before passing judgement? That seems like an odd thing to be sick of.

There is just not enough here for me to have an informed opinion.

I'm sick of you always acting so reasonable and not jumping to conclusions. Why don't you just form your opinion based on the very few details available to you?

It's tough....it depends how sexually explicit his son was online.

If there were nude 16 year old girls on his computer, and that computer was also used by Houston Alexander, then he could be charged with child porn.

In some states, if his 16 year old son received pics from 15 year old nude women, he could be charged with some statutory shit.

There are a lot of factors, and if his son had any nude pics of girls under the age of 18, then Houston's only legal option was to turn his son into the cops, but how many fathers would do that to their son.

What we do know, is that Houston was stupid for doing what he did. He is always a very easily marketable guy with a real positive life, doing work with charities too. All that shit is out the window now. He should have known better and known that doing something like he did would get around.

i have no problem with discipline/punishment in parenting..what i dont agree with is getting physical with your child out of anger. imo there are plenty other things you can do besides hitting them.

All these people saying "I see nothing wrong with that!" Obviously never got their 16 year old ass kicked by their 30-40 year old dad.

I have, and trust me, theres something wrong with it.

I have no use for a bleeding heart liberal neither,if that's how you wanna label someone.But I have a kid and I'm telling you right now the only thing Houston taught his kid(besides how to make a bad decision and go to jail)is to fucking take out his anger and frustration with people through violence.WHICH IS BAD FOR MMA,which I notice a lot of you like to pretend to care about,so long as it parallels your personal views.

I hear yeah bro, Its been getting to me as well. Sucks we have to lose another member with a soul. Great post.

Theres better ways to get to your kid without punching them in the face.

Not even mentioning the fact that Houston is a trained fighter with lethal weapons for hands.

Lol how so? Talking to a girl your age=5 punches to the face. Talking to a girl underage=20 punches to the face and Child porn= 3 5minute rounds?

No matter what his son did, he doesnt deserve to stand in front of a full grown man in a confrontation and receive punches to the face. Especially something as stupid as not following the computer rules.

Imagine how scared this kid would be. I know its not fun, I've been there. I got plates and screws in my hand and arm from fighting with my old man because he was "teaching me a lesson" at 16... while hes 36 and ripped.

My hand is never going to be the same, my grip strength is fucked in my left hand. I have a hard time flicking a lighter or holding a cup/mug filled with something. I got rods all in my wrist, getting arthritis pains at 24.

Some lesson.



(Sorry for the mini-rant its obviously a pretty sensitive issue for me, DAMN YOU DAD! lol)
