So Charlie Sheen threatened to KILL his wife at Christmas and brandished a knife to back it up and he gets to plead guilty to a count of misdemeanor assault. He gets no jail time, supposed to go to rehab but he’s getting time off for time already spent in rehab, and credit for going to anger management classes.
Now I ask you, if you threatened to kill your boss and brandished a knife do you think you’d get the same sentence? No, of course not. You’d be in jail!!!
No matter how much progress is made in the field of domestic violence awareness, it still comes down to a man can threaten his wife and it’s not really that bad because she is his property after all and she probably provoked him and when it comes to domestic violence we’re still living in the 1800s.
