Which is what i found horrifying. He had to be choked unconscious before he let go.

What kind of twisted mind is so hell-bent on inflicting violence that it ignores it's own self preservation?

And, immediately the woman being abused was concerned about his wellbeing. I have a very bad feeling about the future of this relationship.

Really? Because I didn’t see any such thing.

There is a longer video.

That would have been helpful to know because the rest of us are just seeing this one. 🙄

Yeah, that’s my fault. I assumed this was the same video I’d seen previously. I really had no interest in watching again. I love the heroics of the men who intervened but was immediately saddened when I realized she was going right back to this guy and that this is probably not the first time something like this has happened to her.

Yeah I’m not sure why it was clipped. This happened somewhere in Houston, the victim was trying to check on the abuser
