... and I don't say that every day.

A men's rally against domestic violence has been organized in Dallas by Mayor Mike Rawlings.

"In the past this has been viewed as a women’s issue, but it ain’t. It’s our problem.”

That has been a feature of many Domestic Violence campaigns here for a while. Not there?

Well, Canada has had Jack Layton's White Ribbon Campaign since the 90's. (And boy did that ever get a lot of pushback when it started.) I think it's less common in the US.

Mostly I can never let a chance go by to complain about our useless joke of a Mayor.
