I'd like to see a study on how many domestic violence cases have the woman as
the aggressor yet the man s the one charged with domestic violence for defending
himself. I know of one case where the man and woman were both charged with
domestic violence but in the long run it was still the man who received the most
punishment.

That's a topic where almost all the data is compliled by womens groups and the
real facts do not bear any resemblance to the truth. Men will rarely ever
report violent acts by their spouses and even when they do the cops tend to
treat 'em like pussies and won't do shit anyway

My second wife was an alcoholic and sometimes when she was roaring drunk she'd
get pissy and start swinging at me, all 5'5" and 110 pounds of her. I'd
just bat her arms away before she connected but she'd get some helliscious
bruises on her forearms from that and I was lucky noone ever made anything of
those bruises.

I came home drunk one night (about 25 years ago)and my wife-at-the-time slapped
me across the face, she was about 5' 2" and 100lbs to my 5'11"
235lbs...I just laughed

I know what you guys are sayin and have been there done that as well but, the
reality of it all is that while we all admit to our babes acting out with
violence who's ever even thought of reporting such acts, much less have done
so?
As one charged and convicted of an act of domestic violence I did not commit,
having been drug through 3yrs of legal BS over it (and over $7k out of pocket),
met many other men who were also in a similar situation in the course of taking
the requisite Anger Management course, then the fucking Alcohol and Drug
Awareness course I also was required to take (even though neither drugs nor
alcohol were part of the case).
The courts/laws/and indeed all facets of the legal system treat white males as
plagues upon society whose only redeeming quality is that they have a pocket
ready to be picked.
I bet many of us are aware of guys so far behind in their child support that
it's truly shameful, and just as surely many of us know how they seemingly get
away with this endlessly.
I could go into a long diatribe that could stretch on for pages here but let me
just say that as a white working and available father I was drug into court over
what was initially a $300 arrearage that was actually paid before the court date
and still got a $500 fine + a $1500 "fee" from the other attorney
(which I was told if I did not make an agreement for repayment satisfactory to
that attorney THAT DAY I would be thrown in jail), 6 months of supervised
probation at $50 a month and 100hrs of Community Service, for a crime that did
not even exist.
In trying to make my case in court and asking questions of the other attorney
the judge stopped me midsentence and asked "Mr. Steele, are you stupid, or
just hard of hearing?". My response was "No your honor, I am
neither." after which I just shut the fuck up 'cause it was all too obvious
what was gonna happen otherwise
The judge did at least have the decency to ask if I had anything to say before
passing his judgement on me in this case. I replied "Yes your honor, I do.
While I agree there was an arrearage in this case in the amount stated, that
amount has been paid in full before todays date. Secondly, if any of the fines,
fees and such I am to be held liable for from this courts actions today were to
be paid towards anything benefitting my child I would do so willingly, but the
fact is not one dime of what I'll be paying will go to her betterment, and
that's pretty sad."

"met many other men who were also in a similar situation" - while I
am sure there are other men in the same situation as were Mrkim, I am sure that
there are also those that claim innocence that are in fact guilty, just like
nearly every person picked up by the cops protests their innocence.

I am just so grateful to have married a woman raised by parents who believed
that women should be like June Cleaver. I had to remove most of her
subservience but we live together with 100% respect for each other. Our fights
and arguments ended more than 25 years ago and we seldom even have any
disagreements anymore.

Went to jury duty a few weeks ago and surprise surprise got picked for a
domestic abuse case.Prosecutors gave a great show except for the fact they had
no witnesses,no female victim,no security guard that was supposedly at the scene
when it went down.All they had was two crooked cops testifying they saw the dude
hit the chick for 30 seconds but their stories were totally different .Well
anyways to make a long story short three of us(all males)had to argue with the
three women on the panel over three hours and gave no reasoning for their logic
either,finally they gave up though.Very excruciating day to say the least.

I've been on jury duty a couple of times. It is astounding how stupid the
average person really is. Arguing with stupid people is sometimes something
avoidable in life but not on jury duty. It's always boils down to something
like, "I don't care what the facts are, this is what I think anyway."
Well then you shouldn't be on jury duty. Your job as a juror is very clearly
laid out. You consider the facts presented to you and you base your decision on
those facts and that is all. It doesn't matter what you heard happened to your
sister, brother, father, mother, a friend of a friend of a friend or anyone one
else.

I served on jury duty once before also. It is surprising how little people
listen during the trial and especially to the judge's instructions prior to
retiring for a verdict. First vote went one way then after my arguments and a
few hours the final vote went my way. Fortunately it was a property line
dispute.

One case we heard some of the other jurors were trying to argue that a pissed
off insane guy who called ahead and threatened violence shows up holding a
shotgun banging on someone's door violently did not constitute menacing or
threatening with a deadly weapon.

Would be if it was my door. A corpse holding a shotgun, very menacing.

If somebody got hurt on the other side of the wall then she should be charged.
Call the LEO's then wait until the person comes into the house then blow him
away.

Her ex was in the room, she had a restraining order against him, he shouldn't
have been there.
But Florida law clearly states 10 & 20 so she should have killed the cunt.

Always when you pull a gun on someone you should shoot them dead no matter
what. If you have no intention of killing someone you should never use a gun.
Aside from target practice I have never pulled my weapon without the intention
of killing someone. Fortunately outside of war I have never had to kill anyone
yet.

What did you do in the Navy? Did you kill anyone directly? Just curious. I know
we all did indirectly. I felt real bad for the guys I knew who had to and I'm
thankful I never had to.

Well Blah that is the only part of my stay in the Navy I never talk about. I
know it was something that had to be done but it is not something I am proud of.
Would I do it again if I had to, yes. Would I ever be proud of having to,
never. It does not matter the circumstances, anytime you have to pull the
trigger it takes a little something out of you.

Maybe the vagus nerve in the neck. It is possible but I suspect that reports of
someone actually doing it are lies and using your thumb would probably damage
your thumb more than the person's vagus nerve. There's a lot of muscle in the
way there.
