Who should a woman turn to for help?

If she needs help with her car? Or a leaky faucet? Or man-problems? Whowould you ask, and who do you think would answer?

-What if she's Wife#4 to the man she's got problems with, and he has a history of stalking her?

-What if that man has felony convictions for spousal assault on Wife#1?

-And you know that the lifetime federal ban prohibiting his ownership of firearms means less than dick, considering the fact that he misfired a shotgun, blasting a hole into his bed where (it's been alleged) your child sat less than 3 feet away?

-What if he'd once strangled Wife#3 and made threats on her life?

-What if that man stole her child for a year, then kicked him out, and was now attempting to take him back.

-What if that man tried to kill her once before?

-And now the only thing that is preventing your child from falling back into his clutches is the fact that you've split up, and have evaded capture so far?

Tell me, who does this woman turn to?

Oh, riiiiiiiiigggghhhhhhtttt.......

But what if the cops won't help her?

Because they're the ones leading the pursuit.

No need to follow procedure,

When reports are never filed

No incident record equals no incidents

From the fuzzy edges of the law

Second choice, come on quick now!

No, her family has washed their hands of her. The few friends who remain have their own lives and don't need the kind of hell that an association with her will bring.

Third option, surely you've got one?

Oooohhh, good thinking. Yes, her tiny town has a woman's shelter. But it and all the resources they could provide are not accessible. Not to her.

Why?

Oh it's funny, you see... Wife#2.....the only wife who still wants him, the ONLY wife who HE broke up with, and coincidentally {or maybe not} the only wife who he'd never attacked violently.....

Wife#2 is the DIRECTOR of the woman's shelter. She is a bleeding heart, woman-helping, do-gooder to the nth degree. She is respected and admired by everyone from cops and judges to welfare moms and border babies. Too bad she's a corrupt, disgusting, child-endangering flying monkey, placing more value in her pleasure at feeling needed by him than in the moral standards a woman in her position should be held accountable to.

Her endorsement is heavy. It carries weight... With cops and judges and CPS.... you know, people that matter when you're fighting to break free of an abuser and take your kid with you. Her recommendation can place a man convicted of woman-beating into a training program where he's now certified as anadvocate for sexually assaulted women. Her stamp of approval can post his picture on their Woman's Shelter Facebook page, where he'll receive the praise and accolades they both feel him worthy of. Her word glosses over gunshot holes in walls until they're invisible. Her stupid, pig snout has protruded enough times to know that law enforcement will not help you.

It's 11:00 Saturday night. You're parked in the parking lot of the ER, the only place you can think of to hide in plain sight. Where chain smoking in a parked car isn't that unusual of a sight. Who do you turn to for help?

I don't see Superman swooping down. It doesn't seem much like Jesus is very talkative either. Lord knows, no blue eyed angel with brand new cowboy boots is headed to save your skin. Cops won't help, you are literally on your own. Your sons future rests entirely on how these next few days will play out.

Fight or flight, I've always chosen the latter. But I'm out of places to hide.

I can't fight everyone. I can't stay hidden forever. The quickest and most effective way to kill a monster is to chop off its head

It's 11:18 pm.

I'm going head-hunting.
