Plants also react to being harmed, so it’s arguable they don’t feel pain.

Males tend to get better quality and fit than women do, though.

Police don’t issue POs in any jurisdiction I know of. You have to go to court for that. Police can’t do more than ask them nicely to go away until you get a court issued PO signed by a judge.

The vast majority of evidence shows that people don’t tend to go around falsely accusing their loved ones of crimes just for kicks and giggles. Yet every abuse apologist loves to polish up that argument every single time.

I’m trying to give you the benefit of doubt, but you do realize that making these arguments in this way puts you squarely aligned with the most consistent group of murderers in the world, right?

“People are being hurt and terrorized, and need to be protected!”

“But we couldn’t possibly take away a few guns until we sort this out, because an entitled violent person’s right to have a gun is way more important than thousands of innocent murdered women and children, right!..Right?”

I think you’re getting temporary POs confused with permanent ones.

My ex and abuser was convicted of domestic violence charges, and currently owns a gun and has no public record of his crimes. This despite being anti gun and getting it for the sole purpose of scaring me. Proof has nothing to do with it. Courts regularly ignore proof in order to fail to protect victims. If they don’t accept criminal convictions as proof, there isn’t much they will accept. Don’t pretend this has anything to do with a need to prove that someone is a monster before taking away his deadly toys.

For what it is worth, our kids are still fighting to heal the damage he did to them. But he has a right to a gun, so bully for him.

This is so terrifying. I’m glad they are cracking down.
