(Video) NFL: Ricky Williams Says Adrian Peterson Didn’t Do Anything Wrong, Black People Beat Their Kids
Although some white people beat their kids and some black people don’t, there’s a general belief that black people are more inclined and raised to believe that whipping your kids is the right thing to do. Stereotypes state that white people let their kids run wild and do whatever they want while a black person will hit their kids with whatever they find (extension cords, belts, tree switches etc.).
