You can take the gun out of the equation, but you can't eliminate the bad boy groupie mentality that draws these women to prison inmates, illiterate hood rats and violent drug addicts.

Without brain dead women actively seeking out the lowest form of sewer slime to attach themselves to, there is no domestic violence.
We should call George Zimmerman and get his take on this. He has no shortage of women that want to be with him despite the fact he is a loose cannon.

Anyone, who is in a relationship with a partner with a gun needs to consider this:


Another factor that indicates lethality:

Simple, wife beaters with guns are 20 times more likely to kill their wives than wife beaters without guns.

Conclusion, it would be best if wife beaters didn't own guns.

Convicted beaters are not allowed to own guns. Period.

Well Obamacare now covers lifetime mental health therapy which they say will decrease gun violence.
So we have our solution

Defending yourself and family from an attacker is also easier with a gun.
