What do you do when a girl hits you?

Bill Burr thinks we should ask The View for the answer

NOT SAFE FOR WORK!

NOT SAFE FOR WORK!

I don't know if they'd take the question up though, it doesn't fit their format.

Seriously though, in this guy's case, pressing charges for assault and kidnapping would be a start, at the very least.

Bill Burr is a funy mofo

Someone hits me, I hit them. If I get locked up so be it. I'd rather be locked up and still have my pride and self respect, rather than be free and punked out.

I don't know with other girls but this is what you should do if she is a french girl.

You let them take out there aggression then you smile and offer them kindness. That's how you keep your pride as a man.

Pretty awful to read, I feel very sorry for him.  He's right too, that's pretty much how L/E deals with it.  

When I left my wife back in 2004, I was warned by a police officer that I shot with to transfer all my firearms out of the home prior to giving her the news that I had already rented a new place to live, and was leaving her the house.  Here in Canada, keeping your gun license is in your wife or cohabiting partners hands, she has to actually sign your application to "allow" you to have them, and is quite often the first thing the wife's divorce lawyer advises - go after his guns and license, just say you feel threatened and scared, and the police will come and seize them, and take him away!  That's literally the word for word advice they give, and what the lawyer told my soon to be X.  I told her I was going, then a couple days went by.

Luckily, when she called the government 1 800 number they have specifically for this purpose (yes, that isn't a joke), I just let her go on with them on the phone, explaining that although I'd never once been violent around her, raised a hand, my voice, anything of the sort, me having guns scared her and she felt threatened and thought I might "use" them, after being coached through it in a similar manner to what this guy went through.  What a joke.  When the police arrived about 15 minutes later, I handed them my friends card, who was a Sargent in another division, and said "I transferred every single weapon and every round of ammunition, and even my pocket knives to his custody 2 weeks ago".  I was lucky, having prior warning, I was able to turn it around on my lying X, and it looked very bad on her, and helped in the later dealings.  If I hadn't known that was how it usually went, I would have lost everything, 50$k worth of stuff, my job, which was in that business in one way shape or form, as well as all the other legal hassles.

Never having had kids, I can't imagine how awful it must be to have them used against you in a split, or go through what the guy in this article has, but I have some small idea how it feels to be betrayed and lied about by your wife, who is nice as pie one day, then turns into something quite different when life takes a turn she doesn't want or like, and lies to the authorities, especially based on legal council, and it's considered "ok" behavior by some groups to do so, so long as the end result works out in the woman's favor.

Knowing that, another option would be to sell all the guns, ammo, and knives before telling the wife.

That's exactly what you do.... 

[Swoop]

Am I the only one who disagrees?


I have never, ever, raised a hand to a woman.  Ever.  Well...as long as pillow fights don't count anyway.

However.....some bird attacks me with a baseball bat and she's getting it stuck where the sun don't shine.  If she's lucky it'll be thin end first.

I'm firmly in the nobody should be hitting anybody camp.

I read a study once (wish I could find that link again) that showed over 50% of the time the first violent contact in domestic abuse cases was from the female. You want to get in an endless argument bring this up in a mixed group. The study wasn't about who came off the worse, who felt threatened... it was solely about who crossed the line and hit first. But people are so ready to dismiss it because it doesn't fit the narrative of who the powerless victim is.

Whenever I see groups purporting to wanting to end DV, or to help DV victims but focused solely on one gender I figure they have zero chance of achieving that goal.

That sounds real good on paper but you've never met my sister. She's a little bitty thing but I learned several decades ago that I was better off knocking her out early or else I would get hurt. If you smile and offer her kindness when she's pissed you'll be doing it with a tooth gone.

[Dichotomy]

walk away. 

[GScholz]

walk away. 

From your kids?

It is good in real life, not just on paper. It's worked for me on more than one occasion. But no, I have not met your sister.

      I made up two jokes. If you ever hit me and I find out about it.....I will use dirty words on you! I guess it aint assault iv if it don't hurt.

It all depends. What is worrysome is reflexes, most of all if you have boxed or taken some kind of martial art. Ive never had a typical smaller woman swing at me but Ive had a few spit on me. During an altercation I had some big fat west side momma punch me right in the mouth and "Bam" before I knew it I had hit her with a left jab and floored her. Luckily she was just stunned.

Hitting woman is the last thing any real man should want to do. I find intentional woman beaters despicable creatures.

I'd pull a shamwow vince and give her a shamPOW right in the kisser.
