I have a friend who has been beaten by her loser boyfriend several times. The cops have come and hauled him away a good percentage of those times. Still, the woman won't press charges for many stupid reasons. The douche bag boyfriend is a small guy, wouldn't ever try anything like this with a man and deserves a really good beat down. I won't do it because of the same concerns as the OP, but if I was nearby when it happened and had a witness, that story would change.
My friend and her loser boyfriend have alcohol issues. I would be surprised if this wasn't the case in the OP's story.
40cal, your options are few and it sucks.
They are just fortunate that the law is what it is. I will not cross that line because I care about my family too much. That does not change that I do believe people like this deserve guys like us to do what our guts tell us to. There is a reason we have the desire to "teach them a lesson". It is in some of our blood. I believe it should be. I also believe it is lacking in too many people which is why the law protects scum bags like you mention and I mention.
They get to be safe and get wasted, beat on women. So long as that woman believes "he will change". Nothing will change. I can do nothing to stop that. I also can do nothing to stop myself from thinking it is BS that a guy like that walks free and in prison he would be sold daily for 2 smokes. "tough guys" my a$#.
One day he will cross that fine legal line and get put in with real tough guys. That day I will go visit him if I somehow find out. Smile and ask how he likes being the tough guy now.
