even in small town America, domestic violence of the worst kind is an everyday thing now. The man that killed his kids here is just another example.

I don't think we care here unless the bad guy is colored.

I must move in the wrong circles, as I never see blatant drug or violence events. I know they exist, but I just don't see it. Guess I should spend more time downtown at 02:00 AM in the morning.

There's always been a lot of domestic violence. A lot of what would be considered domestic violence or abusive today was considered discipline when I was a kid. Kids tended to fear their fathers wrath {or in some cases their mothers or grandmothers} back then and it wasn't because they were worried about getting grounded or having a "time out".

What do you expect when lawlessness is rewarded?

No it isn't. But the gods have changed.

Sam is right. The murder suicide that cost the lives of 2 LEOs in Boone NC a few weeks ago was a 30 something that had to live in a small house with a parent and step parent. All families have some level of conflict from time to time but the ones that didn't get along well before the pandemic are beyond miserable now.

and sometimes people are just pure evil. The normal built in restraints that keep normal society in equilibrium seem to be breaking down

Domestic violence is serious stuff, legally. That will follow a person perpetually and there’s no expungement for it in Louisiana.

Hanco just shared some truth on the subject as did Blackheart.

Probably live in the same type of community that I do, where people can actually spell "community".


These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.
