Practice what u preach buddy!
What happened to innocent until proven guilty? I know that domestic violence is an awful thing and that people should take up for the victims. I, myself was married to an abuser. I understand what it is like to be abused. I also know that sometimes the “victims” are not truthful about the situation. They know that domestic violence is a big issue and they will use that to get what they want whether it is revenge or to hurt someone else. The truth always comes out, and I believe it will. Don’t be so quick to judge because sometimes the “bad guy” is the one that is the victim.
