1. I know several domestic survivors.

In the past I've volunteered and contributed to a local women's shelter network. Domestic abusers seem to be prone to being repeat offenders. Permanent loss of firearm ownership rights would be a good start. Conversely my sister's (USAF retired) ownership and training with firearms stopped her ex from beating her. He's not dead, he was not convicted and never obeyed the restraining order. (Florida courts suck.) Her level of maturity is vastly higher than his. She is emotionally strong and resiliant.

My sis is a Bernie supporter and lurks at DU often. Hi sis.
