To be so fucking angry. How many more women and children must die?

I'd almost become numb to it, with all the news so far this year.

Murder after murder of women and their children. Noone ever seeming to link the common denominator. NAMALT.

This latest one today, I feel like something is beginning to snap inside me. Three babies and a young woman dead, because of a fucking man. Again. And again.

NAMALT What does this mean please?

Totally agree. It's just constant - there was another domestic stabbing the other day too.

I remember the Epsom College murders a little while back. Before it was all confirmed, it was being discussed in the office and I said 'of course, it will be the husband, always is'. Everyone looked at me like I had three heads - totally oblivious to how endemic this is and as if I was being somehow outrageously anti-men. Not all men, but ALWAYS a man.

Agree. It’s utterly sickening, inhumane and cowardly. The raging entitlement to extinguish women and children’s lives.
Again.
