Please join in the petition to ban child abuser Adrian Peterson from playing professionally!! He is currently facing a child abuse charge! Let everyone know this is not ok by signing the petition!! He was deactivated for ONE game. The Minnesota Vikings are allowing him to play again because they played a poor game without him. Peterson's attorney issued a statement saying his client acknowledged striking his son as a form of discipline. The NFL needs to enforce a ZERO TOLERANCE!!!!! The child told authorites he had been hit by a switch and a belt. He beat this child and left welts! Please help!

The indefinite suspension of Adrian Peterson demonstrates that collective public pressure can influence professional sports organizations. We must remain focused on the broader necessity of a permanent ban to ensure that the league maintains a standard of accountability regarding child welfare. Your continued commitment to this objective keeps the focus squarely on the values we expect organizations to uphold.

The momentum behind this petition highlights a clear public consensus regarding professional conduct and accountability. This collective attention serves as a formal reminder that our standards for athletic leadership must remain uncompromising.

Seriously? He shouldn't be anywhere near a football field right now. Disgusting.
Discipline is one thing but this is straight up abuse. My dad used to whoop me but there is a line and he crossed it big time.
ZERO TOLERANCE means zero. Why are they still letting him get paid? Shame on the vikings for putting wins over a kids safety.
Val, I agree! Adrian was a role model for young aspiring athletes....what kind of message does it send when a superstar can literally beat and abuse another human being and just continue on as a superstar as if nothing happened.....as if that little 4 year old doesn't even matter....it makes me sick.
Kate, I know how you feel! Trust me, if I were near the next game, i would plan on a demonstration. But since i cant be there, I am doing my part with this petition! I only hope to raise more awareness of this!
I wouldn't want to be attacked by him and I'm an adult.

This makes me so sick to my stomach. No child should ever have to go through that kind of pain. He needs to be done for good.
