TIL mods delete post about a scientific study that shows male victims of domestic violence are more likely to be arrested than the ones beating them. • /r/undelete

I'm unfortunately living proof of that fact. Gotta love California. When I went back to get my stuff the cop I made sure I had with me to witness everything even said she couldn't see anything wrong with her, but when I got arrested she was "covered in bruises" according to the arresting officers.

FWIW also if a couple is verbally arguing in some states - loud enough for the neighbors to hear and call the cops - that one of the couple must now go to jail for domestic abuse (treated as a felony in some states) and it's more often than not the guy. So you can get physically assaulted and not fight back and go to jail or you can be screamed at and go to jail. Equality in America.

I have a friend who is a victim of this. His ex is a method addict and my friend has been clean since his kid was conceived (so over 4 years now). The kid came home with bruises one night. He took the kid to the hospital, based on a friends advice, and if it wasn't for a nurse some how trusting him and siding with him he would have gone to jail that night for child abuse.

Statistically, women are the aggressor in nonreciprocal domestic violence in more than twice as many cases as men.

Yet, when a man calls to report abuse, he is twice as likely to be arrested as his abuser is. But that's only in the cases where the cops do anything at all. In more than half of those cases, the cops do nothing and just leave, because the laws and policies are about 3 decades behind the actual trends.

Because of this feedback loop of not holding women accountable, woman-on-man violence has been steadily increasing for several decades, and millennials are on course to be the most statistically violent generation of women in US history.

I'm not saying that women are evil or putting them down, though. Those are just the facts. Any demographic will inevitably become increasingly violent when society doesn't hold them to the same standards as everyone else.

As a battered spouse dragged back to my abuser and then observing as they caress her arm and ask, "Is he hitting you?" I can believe this.

They also deleted my post about how in Kansas if a woman gets pregnant from raping a man she can get the man to pay child support.

Duthos · 2017-02-10T06:17:40+00:00

I have been in two abusive relationships. Both times they called the cops, both times I had visible injury, both times I was arrested. The first time the crown stayed the [charges] after I showed her a couple recordings of the girl in question going psycho. Still wasn't allowed to go back to the house I had paid rent on two days before and was in my name. The second time the cop didn't recommend [charges] after listening to my story (and putting me through the whole process at the station for a couple hours).

Both times the girls demonstrably lied maliciously and filed false reports. Neither ever faced any repercussions.

Edit cause I left out an important word. Twice.

Western women be like: "Everything that shows women in a bad light is misogynist fake news! This isn't a biased, bigoted, prejudiced, willfully ignorant position! Teach men not to rape! SHUT UP, MALE!!

BEWHEW!! Oh WHERE have all the GUUD menz gawn!?"

The door out of this type of hate doesn't open from the outside...does it?

CloudGeneral · 2017-02-10T04:15:51+00:00

Being assaulted on several occasions and consequently getting arrested for finally defending yourself is the ultimate injustice. Women know they can get away with this and have no remorse for having us locked up and left with a record for life. It's extremely difficult to trust a woman after something like that.

CuntSmellersLLP · 2017-02-09T22:39:22+00:00

The Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) is federal US law drafted by and lobbied for by feminists. Bernie Sanders was actually a key player in getting it passed. It's based on the Duluth model of domestic violence, which says women r soooooo oppressed that if one is twisting a knife in a man's chest and he's not fighting back, it's his fault for being male and she's innocent due to being female. VAWA dictates that the man be arrested in most any domestic violence call.

The monks and priests of history were onto something. Renounce women entirely, live a happy life free of their treachery and of the stress of being near them.

Notyobabydaddy · 2017-02-09T20:34:39+00:00

then maybe someone should repost it :)

bufedad · 2017-02-09T18:47:52+00:00

Maybe I'm missing something, but I see it in the TIL sub when I follow the link.

Wannabkate · 2017-02-10T08:18:49+00:00

And this happened to me. Sigh...

deadfallpro · 2017-02-10T16:53:25+00:00

As a former cop, I can confirm that at least 50% of the cases I dealt with were a female aggressor. Out of those same cases, women were the most violent and caused the most physical harm as well. They were also more likely to ambush an unsuspecting partner as well. Men were also passed over for domestic violence assistance in any way. All funding was earmarked for female victims only. The system is broken, thanks to Femi-nazis.

ImHereAtLast · 2017-02-10T05:12:02+00:00

Alright. So let's say you walk in to my apartment. I'm sitting on the couch with red, bleeding forearms, and a scratched up face to match. My girlfriend is pacing in front of me and when she sees you, she starts crying, saying that I hit her. I don't react at all, and just look at you to see what you'll do.

Who's going to jail tonight?

comrade-jim · 2017-02-10T13:28:00+00:00

You want to know what's really going on?

Lots of reddit subs are run by sock-puppet accounts, many were even created for the sole purpose of controlling the political and cultural narrative.

You think these people are just one-off trolls, but the reality is that multiple state and private organizations are behind the shaping of the narrative on social media. The "SJW" vs "altright" narrative was created by an organized group of sock-puppets.

All world governments with internet access are in a world wide cyber war that's all about controlling the political and cultural narrative. They blackmail people, celebrities, politicians, scientists, etc.. by hacking into their digital lives and stealing what they can or spying on them and finding them in compromising positions. With todays technology, powerful organizations can even manipulate audio/video to make it look like you're saying or doing things you never did.

Russia and the US are probably the most active at this, as far as politics go. Big brands like Microsoft also pay people to shill online.

BlackBoxInquiry · 2017-02-10T15:07:32+00:00

Yup. I was stabbed through my hand after coming home from work (mandatory OT) @ 2am for wanting to go to sleep because I had to be awake and out the door by 6am for another full day at school, then work immediately after - rather than do the dishes that she said she was going to do since she wasn't working at the time.

I called the cops, they came wanted to cuff me WITH the knife still in my hand and she never had a hand laid on her.

It was only when whey took me outside and she went on her screaming fit and got aggressive did they believe me. They got an angry confession out of her and hauled her off...so 30+ min trying to convince the people I called for help that I was indeed the one who needed help and who actually called them......equality? If the roles would have been reversed, and she has a knife through her hand, I'm certain I'd have been roughed up and "had trouble" walking down the several flights of stairs and getting into and out of the squad car, taking place all inside 10 minutes before I was enroute to the station.

OH! "TIL mods" means "the mods of TIL". That makes much more sense.

I_am_jacks_reddit · 2017-02-10T10:50:22+00:00

This is what this sub should be. There was some nice info in this post.

And now that this sub is gone from /r/all, no one other than us will see this.

totallynotarobotnope · 2017-02-10T04:01:08+00:00

It seems to me that one of the biggest problems on Reddit isn't racist rednecks but some of the moderators. Even on r/the_donald i often see opposing points of view allowed but not on many other sites like politics and world news

2017-02-10T10:15:58+00:00

Doesn't surprise me. We really need a mod free alternative platform.

sara_prado · 2017-02-09T23:22:14+00:00

yes, YOU do, peole who browse TIL don't. you can be screamed at and go to jail for domestic abuse.

avgjoegeek · 2017-02-10T20:15:04+00:00

Being a male and having suffered from domestic violence. I can attest that the system is more for protecting women and not men. Unfortunately statistics and probably a high percentage of what cops see only helps with that.

My personal advice? Even if you are innocent? If you can't afford the worlds best defense attorney - take the plea. You have a very slight chance of winning your case.

skyblivion93 · 2017-02-10T13:15:04+00:00

I don't think I'd want a relationship, reading the comments here has reassured that.

Good_Cop_Likes_Donut · 2017-02-10T02:52:00+00:00

I arrest based on the primary agressor. If she spits in your face, slaps you on the face and pushes you which causes you to deck her in the face with a closed fist in "self defense" instead of separation and calling 911; You're going to jail as the primary agressor..
