John Howard: Ex-Prime Minister stops domestic violence incident

Haha, they've changed the headline!

Previously it read: "John Howard saves woman from domestic violence incident".

They were getting a caning on social media because it was the woman arrested as the perpetrator.

At least they realised their mistake and fixed it. Too bad they automatically and brainlessly went for the "woman as victim" headline the first time, however.

Former (left wing) prime minister Kevin Rudd reposted the story on Facebook, saying

"Well done John Howard. Any violence against women is unacceptable."

Of course our last prime minister, Malcolm Turnbull, had this to say on the subject:

"The issue of domestic violence, or family violence, as it’s often called, which is just violence against women, as the way I prefer to describe it, is an enormous one."

Yes, it seems many of our prime ministers, from both sides of politics, have a problem with misandry which drives them to erase & ignore male victims and female perpetrators, among other things.

From the article

A 44-year-old woman has been charged with breaching an Apprehended Domestic Violence Order and granted conditional bail to appear at Manly Local Court on Tuesday.

The man, aged 47, was taken to hospital as a mental health precaution.

“Police hope to speak with the man once he is deemed well enough,” police said.

What this lady have done to fail to turn tables on her victim even with the ex prime minister white knighting for her?

Howard did exactly what White Ribbon and Our Watch advocate. If you must intervene always side with the female party.

LOL! It turns out it's a female who has an AVO against her, and SHE'S the one who's been arrested! So, of course, this will now become under-rug swept.
