My point is we’ll never know if these people were actually abusive. I’m not saying murder is never morally justified, but simply assuming the murderer is in the right because they said so is certifiably nuts.
Have you heard old men speak about women? The amount of lamenting is completely absurd. Sad they can't do certain things anymore.
It's an easy assumption to make that the majority of husbands were cruel and demanding.
The ones that complain about not holding puppet strings might shift the balance. The vocal ones speak for the lot, and they suck.
I get what you mean - in any particular case it might not be possible to ever prove that the murder was actually morally justified, so maybe we’re just giving some batshit crazy stab-happy lady a pass for no reason. Still, even if we can’t know whether or not it was morally justified, we can and do know that the conditions that would justify it were common enough that I’m personally comfortable with the odds ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
