I think that's pretty naive. But, then, that's me.
Not naive at all. My comments are straight out of the literature about the Domestic Violence Industry, which I happened to be researching today, written by attorneys, physicians, psychologists, and a few social workers who've gotten out of the business and can now tell the truth.
I think it would curl your hair to read about the assault on the American family that DSHS and associated agencies are making. Here's something I bet you don't know: More than 60 percent of spousal abuse is caused by women attacking men. These are US govt statistics, but the media only goes after the men who attack women.
But as stated, the fellow in this case might be dangerous and evil.
