• 40% of cops freely admit to abusing their spouses, when guaranteed anonymity.

Also, rubber bullets being fired at head height are punching holes into store windows. Protesters don't use rubber bullets, but the damage will be blamed on them anyway.

Won't somebody think of the billionaires

I will never understand the mind of the shitlib. "No please, don't respond to the overwhelming violence with violence of your own!" The actions of this country are sickening, but it seems like liberals are able to tolerate it in the name of "peace" even once it comes home.

that's the SELF REPORTED number! in reality it's much, much higher.

Oh no, a bunch of megacorporations lost a few million dollars. Im truly pouring one out for my favorite megacorporations and I hope they have a good fiscal quarter /s

Property damage is not violence.

Omg did corporate america have to take a miniscule loss. Send in the military!

The other 60% lie better.

That isn't really true.

The Neidig study stated in its abstract, "Survey results revealed that approximately 40 percent of the participating officers reported marital conflicts involving physical aggression during the previous year." However, that "physical aggression" included violence perpetrated by the officers' spouses. The results for violence perpetrated in the relationship in general was 41% for male officers and 40% for female officers. Importantly, Neidig's results for violence specifically perpetrated by the officers against their spouses were much lower: 28% for male and 27% for female.

So 28% is the number, really, and "physical violence" is not necessarily the same thing as "beating their spouse." That could mean shoving them, or pulling their arm or something. One criticism of the original study is how vaguely it defines "physical violence".

I know I will be labeled as a bootlicker, and I swear I'm not, I just don't like misinformation and on lemmy all the misinformation is leftist. On PCM on reddit I spend my time calling out conservative BS.

40% admit to beating their spouses...

Apple shouldn't support tyrants if they want sympathy. It's not likenirs a franchise.

This meme is fantastic 10/10

Also, the stores were probably hit by riot munitions.

The stores were asking for it

I agree there's a lot of abusers in the police. The 40% is an unreliable study, it's old and counts really low level things like slamming doors as domestic abuse. Big issue is not considering the pattern of behaviour and coercive control. For example she finds out he's cheated and slaps him in a one off assault... illegal, but ongoing coercive control isn't there. DA perps in the police needs more research really, which hopefully will happen.

wont these phones just gonna get locked by apple by imei anyway?

I wish my spouse would beat me off now and then

Maybe those megacorps should have another disincentive for aiding and abetting murder, treason, and genocide then. Just a thought.

Plus those ads, I mean, did you see what they were wearing?

More people need to reflect the way society treats women onto these corporate giants that actively work against our self-interest as the general populace.

That said, there's very rarely a good reason to hurt local business, so I do hope they stay away from mom and pops.

Nice
