Should the US legalize Domestic Violence like Russia has?

[OddBeMe]

With backing of the Russian Orthodox Church…DV is legal until there’s “substantial bodily harm”…wtf?

Yes

No

[FreyaRed]

Russia is the shining example for every totalitarian dictatorship shit hole with it's arbitrariness of laws, alternative history and mental gymnastic of a paranoid Tzar

[handsomelad70]

RIGHT ON, FreyaRed !!!

[DextroShade]

Sounds better than what we have here where a woman can beat a man and then the cops (following the Duluth model) arrest him for hurting her hand with his face. Women initiate most DV which is why lesbian couples have the highest rates of DV and gay couples have the lowest.

[loveslongnails]

" lesbian couples have the highest rates of DV and gay couples have the lowest." That statistic is relevant in what way to the question? The post asks " Should the US pass a law stating you're legally permitted to commit violence against your domestic partner up to the point where there's "sustainable bodily harm" (whatever THAT means - permanent perhaps).

That's the question.

[DextroShade]

@loveslongnails women are like children, sometimes they need a spanking when they misbehave or get out of pocket.

[loveslongnails]

Russia is your kind of place then.

[handsomelad70]

How very Putin/REPIGLIKSCAM of you.

[Sevenpointfive]

if you have to hit someone to make them understand you then you don't something's wrong with YOU.

violence does have its place but it's not in a relationship. it's just as easy to walk away

[mandyfire98]

There are already men in the U. S. Who would kill for this.

[Andrewsmith14]

Every country….

[mandyfire98]

True

[OddBeMe]

I am, unfortunately, under the belief that if the leashes were off we’d eat each other.

[mandyfire98]

I wish people had more empathy. Sadly I think they don't

[Still-alive]

oh you know they would lol. there's dudes who long for the days where they can sexually abuse their wives and not face any legal consequences for it.

[OddBeMe]

@Still-alive Yeah Russia is basically MAGA country.

[Still-alive]

no wonder them magats love russia and putin lol

[handsomelad70]

Especially in America with its dog-eat-dog ethos.

[gorydetails]

Now that the Jan 6 narrative is crumbling in front of your eyes, you have to go back to Russia Russia Russia, eh?

[OddBeMe]

What are you blathering about? Jan 6 isn’t crumbling in reality. Maybe on your right wing shit tube.

[gorydetails]

Well let's be real. Your Jan 6 fantasy was never really on stable ground to start with.

Rep. Barry Loudermilk, R-Ga., revealed gross abuses by the Democrats’ partisan Jan. 6 select committee in a new report on Monday.

Loudermilk, whose Committee on House Administration’s Subcommittee on Oversight spent the prior year reviewing the work of the select committee led by then-Rep. and committee Vice Chair Liz Cheney, found the J6 probe covered up critical evidence that undermined the Democrats’ narratives amid the 2022 midterms.

“For nearly two years former Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s January 6th Select Committee promoted hearsay and cherry-picked information to promote its political goal — to legislatively prosecute former President Donald Trump,” Loudermilk said. “It was no surprise that the Select Committee’s final report focused primarily on former President Trump and his supporters, not the security failures and reforms needed to ensure the United States Capitol is safer today than in 2021.”

Loudermilk’s subcommittee detailed the investigation’s initial findings this week, over a year after a separate Republican review of the Capitol security failures on Jan. 6, 2021, found Pelosi culpable for turning down requests to preemptively call in the National Guard.

[gorydetails]

Weeks after Republicans reclaimed the House in 2022, then-GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy sent a letter to Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., the chairman of the Jan. 6 committee, to “preserve all records collected and transcripts of testimony taken during your investigation.” Loudermilk’s investigators, however, found that Thompson’s committee deleted troves of information, including “hundreds of video recordings.”

Loudermilk’s subcommittee also “discovered that the Select Committee failed to archive more than a terabyte of digital data.”

[OddBeMe]

So…none of this makes Jan 6 “shaky”. It just makes the GOP look “shaky”

750+ convictions. None of them overturned.

[gorydetails]

Well yeah, if you hide terabytes of evidence it's easy to get a jury to go your way.

[goaded]

Is that like the Secret Service coincidentally deleting all their messages from on and around Jan 6?

[gorydetails]

@goaded Wait, was that the secret service that Trump kung fu chopped and grabbed the wheel from?

[OddBeMe]

@goaded I love when they change the subjects so abruptly.

[Juxtapose]

At least it would be equal between the sexes where in the USA at the moment if a woman hits you and you call the police? You are going to be the one going to jail if you are the male.

[handsomelad70]

For good reason, mostly (not always). Unless a woman is armed, she's at the mercy of someone nearly TWICE as strong as she pound-for-pound.

[Juxtapose]

@handsomelad70 that is not a good reason. That allows a woman to essentially hold a knife to your throat while she gets a torture you and if you call the police then you are going to be the one on the hook.

It's straight up misandry.

[OddBeMe]

@handsomelad70 that doesn’t matter. Assault is assault.

[dustybiker2]

It's just digging itself in deeper and deeper. I wonder if the orange wonder is a fan.

[dustybiker2]

I know he is. Just pretending I care for his opinion.

[OddBeMe]

I’d like to see him try to punch Melania.

[dustybiker2]

She does look like a scrapper.

[OddBeMe]

fcking Slav blood.

[Agape93]

Sure long as you don't mind abusers being killed off en masse

[OddBeMe]

That’s preferable actually. Still got that shotgun?

[Agape93]

And enough shells to wipe out a few thousand of them.

[Agape93]

At minimum.

[OddBeMe]

I’ll be standing behind you. #moralsupport

[Agape93]

Just pass me a box of shells every couple of houses

[OddBeMe]

You’re never gonna get through thousands at that rate. Two shotguns.

[Agape93]

Heh, get me a saiga and I'll blow through the list at a beautiful pace

[Agape93]

I want an automatic shotgun lol

[OddBeMe]

Saiga…got it.

[Agape93]

Check your dm lol enjoy

[OddBeMe]

Can’t wait.

[OtterMan68]

Don't give the GOP any ideas. They idolize Putin

[strateguy632]

such a childish reply, lol

[OtterMan68]

@strateguy632 ask Tucker Carlson

[Sasahara]

@OtterMan68 Why need to ask Tucker, according to you, GOP only cares about unborn babies and billionaire donors. Why do Democrats claim to have so much "compassion," but only seem to have compassion for illegals and not the people who are paying their salaries? ↗ In that question you made the claim that this link here apnews.com/.../states-rejecting-federal-funds-summer-ebt-8a1e88ad77465652f9de67fda3af8a2d and claimed the only things GOP cares about are unborn babies and billionaire donors. You never managed to provide the exact quote were they stated that (because they didn’t and you lied) So are you making the claim that Putin is a unborn baby, a billionaire donor, or perhaps the GOP are unable to care enough to idolize him? Of course we would expect you to be able to prove your claim.

[Anonymous]

If you've ever dated a Russian woman you'd know that If domestic abuse was illegal there'd be a lot of Russian women in jail for it.

[JacobJordan]

Lol what kind of stupid shit is this?

[OddBeMe]

Ask Russia.

[JacobJordan]

Just because a country allows something stupid doesn't mean every country that likes that country supports it. Hitler started an anti smoking campaign first country to do so. The US now has anti smoking campaign does that mean the US supports the genocide of jews? No of course not just because a country or person is shit doesn't mean they only bad ideas and vice versa. For a 40 year old man you are an embarrassing representation of men.

[dustybiker2]

So it's okay that the people of Russia felt threatened enough to pass such a law? That's just Russia. Write it off? Then call the person whose trying to bring attention to it a poor rep of men. Rich.

[JacobJordan]

@dustybiker2 if you didn't follow the conversation shut the fuck up. He is insinuating that because the US has backed certain things russia does should we consider legalizing dv which is obviously stupid to anyone with a functioning pair of brain cells and renders the whole question stupid as hell reference my first comment. Get upset all you want I ain't your daddy and you aren't my kid idgaf about your feelings throw a woke bitch fit if you want. Ciao

[OddBeMe]

@JacobJordan Isn’t this make America great again? Back when women and poc had less rights?

[JacobJordan]

Women have more rights now than they have ever had. They could do with a bit of true equality. *cough* draft *cough*

[OddBeMe]

Are you saying women are trying to dodge serving in the military? Seriously?

[JacobJordan]

Are women on the draft? Do women want to be on the draft? If you are going to support stupidity be prepared to be shown why it is stupid. Women had all the same rights as men at about 1960. How do I know? Because that was when feminism became obsolete my mom was part of the wave that got equality and she is very disappointed in women today because they are not looking for equality rights they are looking for superiority.

[OddBeMe]

There is no draft dumbass. I’d like it come back. We wouldn’t so easily get into wars.

[JacobJordan]

Selective service dumbass 🤣🤣🤣

[JacobJordan]

I mean really why are you continuing to prove the point I made on my second comment. You are trying to argue/debate and you have absolutely zero education to help you. In fact the entire purpose of selective service is to and I quote "ensure that a future draft will be fair and equitable" well shoot would you look at that. Perhaps you should spend less time spewing bullshit and more time educating yourself then you might actually be able to come to one of these with something resembling an intelligent or factual thought

[strateguy632]

nope
