Hero Charles Ramsey Was A Domestic Abuser - Just Like Thousands Of Other Men

Christmas is over guys. Our beloved hero Charles Ramsey has been outed by The Smoking Gun as being a domestic abuser. I know a lot of us were waiting to see what skeletons surfaced from his Big Mac closet, and it was naive to think the guy didn’t have something that would come out, because most civilians minding their own business before they became a national hero would.

Although multiple outlets have reported on Hugh condemning his son’s actions on Twitter, the tweet now appears to have been deleted.
