Sad News....Another Soror Falls Victim...

This is sad and frightening The police do nothing to protect women. In order for them to act, they want an actual incident such as a black eye. If you call them and tell them the man is threatening you and is displaying threatening behavior, they do nothing. Its sad that this happened and I pray for her family and Sorors. Women and the communities must stand up and demand more police response to situations such as these.

RIP, Soror, and prayers to your family.

This isht is chilling. I just don't understand what makes some men feel that they can commit violent acts against a woman.

(at bolded) It is also to protect the man's rights too. The police cannot discern if the call is truly because the aforementioned is the case or if the woman is merely doing it out of spite. Besides, even if the man is doing the above, the ability for the woman to call the police provides a means for her to do something else to protect herself from any potential harm:

FLEE THE SCENE!!!

My points above are twofold: to let women know they have a right to protect themselves from harm by psycho men, be it by fight or flight, but also to prevent abuse to the system (read: calling the police) purely for revenge and spite.
