Why Domestic Violence Can't Be Stopped

Ever wonder why Domestic Violence seems to continue to rise within the United States even though there are endless marketing and educating and resources supposedly to assist the abused to recognize and escape the abuser?

I can tell you from my personal experience the very top reason that Domestic Violence will never stop no matter how much the victims scream for help.

I was married to an abuser. Even after the divorce and his re-marriage, he continues to abuse, but at least its without the physical part. He abused our children, he abused his prior wife and her child, and then when our daughter was murdered in a domestic violence situation, he now speaks and inputs himself into any and every domestic violence event that will let him use her death as his ego trip.

My child, an Army Nurse, died at the hands of her husband. Her father made her no stranger to domestic violence. He tried to throw her out of a two story bedroom window, and then threatened us if we didn't stop the police call. Yes, now this man, the wolf in sheep's clothing, makes a mockery out of all of us that he and others have abused. Yet, he makes no mention of the abuses he did upon us, the broken bones, the shame, the berating, the deprivation, and on and on. He only proclaims that he does this in honor of his daughter and to save some one else. It is not to save anyone, it is a throne for him to show all that truly know him how much we remain unheard and how much he can manipulate.

He wins!

His step daughter is so distraught over his most recent Youtube lies that she is inconsolable and wants her story of broken bones and broken spirit told, but there is no one to hear her or me, just him and his lies. There is no hope for domestic violence victims, because our society allows people like him to control and manipulate and won't face the facts that "HE" is the model of which they warn all from while they embrace and protect him.
