Conservative activist calls fighting domestic violence a "socialist plot."

Yeah, beating a person's wife or kids is a "good conservative thing to do."

Jesse Lee Peterson: Combating Domestic Violence Is A 'Socialist' Plot, 'Feminist Charade'

Submitted by Brian Tashman on Monday, 9/22/2014 11:25 am

Conservative talk show host Jesse Lee Peterson writes today in WorldNetDaily that criticism of the NFL’s handling of domestic violence cases is part of a “socialist political agenda” to “destroy the order of the family” and bring about “utter societal chaos.” He claims that feminists want to “make criminals out of decent men and women” and have no business condemning domestic abuse anyway since they “support the murder of unborn children” through abortion rights and back marriage equality for gays and lesbians, which he says is “undermining society’s need for proper order.”

These people are just crazy. It keeps getting worse. It is a sickness, being a conservative.

we've always known this, but it's always nice to see them make it so explicit.

i've had some success lately with right-wingers when i replace their hated subset of people with "americans".

so if they rail against the poor or blacks or women or gays, i replace what they said with "americans".

e.g., why do you think americans are lazy or whatever. reminding them that we're all americans goes a long way toward getting my point across.

so in this case, they might think violence against "women" is just an issue they can dismiss or argue against, but when i remind them that we're talking about americans, well, violence against americans is not so easily dismissed by right-wingers.
