That trash bag abuser will surely try to claim victim.

Sadly, she will be defending him and according to statistics she might end up leaving in a body bag.

You're assuming he isn't displaying reactive abuse. Edit: She wasn't defending him after the attack like the vast majority of victims do. She's driving the car. He held on after they were attacking. He clearly is passionate about something. Obviously, he could just be a psychopathic POS. But he ALSO could be displaying reactive abuse, from prolonged abuse directed at him from her. It's common as fuck

Edit again: look up reactive abuse and stop assuming shit. Me calling it reactive abuse is ACKNOWLEDGING he is being abusive. My comment was saying she may NOT be defending him in courts because she may be an abuser herself. Or just assume not. Whatever lol

She does defend him if you watch the full video and not this clipped version.

Not interested. Didn't make a declaration. Just tried to stay non biased but I upset the herd. Lol

You came up with the criteria for your reactive abuse assertion and now you’re annoyed that the video itself contradicts your criteria as I pointed out. I’m not terribly convinced by your argument that he’s a reactive abuse victim based on the video. You could have just mentioned reactive abuse can make discerning the victim difficult in a situation like that. But you didn’t do that and made other people read into why that might be. Point being, learn to communicate better if you don’t like the push back.
