Nobody wanted to answer my question about how it could be a crime if you do it to an adult, but not a crime if you do it to one of your children.

It apparently is a crime since he got arrested.

I think he should not have spent so much time in his sermon yesterday trying to refute the charges and make his daughter look like a liar. Whether he's guilty or not - it just made him look worse. JMHO

Are you talking about spanking or abuse?

Spanking can be abuse.

In the case of Creflo Dollar, apparently he hit the girl with his shoe, then proceeded to choke her. She has a scratch on her neck--he says it's from eczema. Thing is, she didn't call the cops, her 19 YO sister did.

I am of the opinion that since it's a crime to hit an adult (or an animal!!!) like this, it should be a crime to hit a child in the same way. However, there are a lot of people out there who think that they own their children and can do anything they want to them and the government better not interfere. If you can't kick a dog, you better not be kicking your daughter.
