LAS CRUCES, N.M. (Oct. 13) -- New Mexico State running back Marquell Colston has been suspended after being charged with battery against a household member, a third-degree felony, after a fight with his live-in girlfriend.
Colston was jailed on $10,000 bond.
He cannot participate in team activities while the matter is reviewed by a school misconduct committee.
According to a police report, Colston left the couple's apartment after an argument Sunday and returned Monday evening smelling of alcohol. Police said Colston hit his girlfriend several times in the face, kicked her and pushed her against a wall.
The police report also says Colston pushed the couple's daughter to the floor.

Having been married to an abuser and gotten out alive, whatever race or gender, physical abuse is wrong and punishable by law!

If it is a fact that she was abused, he made a choice! No one forced him to hit her if it's true...and he should suffer whatever consequences are appropriate for his bad choices!

TTbsjdzm its not they have forgotten a thing they refuse to acknowledge that it was all a big mess under Bush. Some of the statements that have been made suggest to me that many people have never lived or visited outside of the US and they have a very nawrrow view of life and that the American way is the only way, when truly it is not. But when this is all you know and you are a product of your environment and I mean this on a large scale, not just in the neighborhood. You can oinly go by what you read see or hear without having the personal experiences of seeing how other cultures live and get aslong with many other races in their country. So for the guy/gal with the lab comment get out of your bubble and go some places out of the country where people are not so judgemental. America is the Beautiful and I wouldn't trade her for any country. We just have a lot of stiff shirts and fear of the unknown mongers who like to keep mess going on all the time. Life is to short to try to tell someone else how to live theirs.

Can't we all just get along. No more halloween parades at school, (to many cultures disagree), No more X-mas parties (the same). Why do we complain or act surprised when abuse like this happens. We want America to be America but want equal rights for everyone. We can't have it both ways. We elect an Arab with the abitlity to speak well. Good Luck, the American Culture was good, we just want it to be better. Wait till 2020 when France is run by muslims.

What is really pathetic is that he is probably there on a ffull football scholarship. Meanwhile hard working intellegent students who can actually contribute to society can't afford to go to college!
I've seen many a dumb jock get a free ride only to throw it away like he did.

Hitting, fighting, violence is wrong. Especially a man to a woman/child, because a man is stronger.. Doesn't matter the color of skin, etc. Why can't we all just love one another ? EVERYONE, pray for our Country, and just get along? We ALL need to stick together.....That's just the way I feel..
