This guy is the ultimate she-male. What a ... Wuss.
He's beholden to false stats and propaganda. This is why we have the stupid laws that we have.

If anyone attacks me or my wife, I don’t care what gender they are, I will defend myself or my family.

This guy is courageous. I was part of a United Methodist Women that brought the issue up publicly in our local church. You have been appalled at the number of elderly ladies who came up to me and discreetly said things like “People need too know about this.”
Churches have long been part of the problem with the submit to the husband tired old line. I inform them all that means is first, find a man who submits to God, then find a way to get along with him.

I disagree
If he was really brave, he’d have reported BOTH sides of the DV situation.

No one deserves to be abused.... not even men.

This guy is courageous.While I know that many men are scumbags, so are many women. Ever hear of false accusations during divorce or child custody hearings? Happens all the time. And when proven false, women never pay the price.
I speak from experience.

The good Reverend is trying to be part of the solution to a very old, very real problem. Leading from the pulpit, letting those in his flock know that violence in the home is unacceptable is valid.
Just anecdotally, I know of several older women, who in unguarded moments, will emphatically state (regarding their widowhood) that they would never go back and re-marry.

You are right there too, drugs dishonesty, greedy for money,
I see it all in my work. None of it explains or justifies domestice violence, child abuse, drunken behavior or animal abuse, failing to make your child support payments, failing to visit your children or remember thir birthdays, and so on and so forth adnauseum.

You're a lawyer. That explains your position. How much money have you made by trashing guys like me?
You are part of the problem with America. Real conservatives will put you out of business someday.

There’s also no excuse for violence against men, which is 10-15 times more common.

Through no particular merit of my own -- in fact, simply because my father contributed a Y chromosome to the genetic mix that led to my birth -- I am part of the privileged gender. Yup, you are a member of the gender that does the fighting and the dying, that loses custody of the children in divorce, and that has the shorter average lifespan.
If this is your idea of privilege, I'm not gonna argue with ya.
