68. I already said your link is about a real problem but that doesn't change the facts

That women are aggressor in DV cases somewhere around 40-45% of the time.

You seem to think that somehow point out that DV is an issue in police families, which it is, somehow changes the fact that women are often aggressors in DV.

One fact doesn't negate the other. DV is a problem in LE (although I question your links talk of the severity) and women are aggressors in 40-45% of DV cases. Both of those realities exist. You seem to be in denial of the latter and desperate to not acknowledge that it's reality.
