Thanks for putting in the work!
While the UK numbers do show the US has a big problem, it's still too high in the UK too and serious work needs put into addressing the problem.

Yes but what's the homicide rate specifically involving intimate partner violence? The numbers me and the other poster were discussing were specifically intimate partner violence.

Yeah, the rates should probably be compared to individual states, or adjusted to a per Capita basis to compare.

It's 2-3 per week in the UK, while better, it is still unacceptably high.

And others immediately jumped to pre-existing domestic violence and her leaving. Both are equally without proof. Both are possible. But your automatic assumption that I have some kind of issue with women is problematic and I will not sit by and be slandered. This will be my last reply as this is not a productive conversation. Good night.

People like you who see accusations when there are none are exhausting. Have a good night.

It doesn't have to be her who cheated. He could have been the cheater and got caught. It's just an emotionally charged time that leads violent people to be violent

Even in countries without guns, intimate Partner Homicide happens far too frequently.

I won't dispute that. Both are certainly emotionally charged events and I can't find any statistics that break down the causes of IPH (intimate Partner Homicide).

Divers is the root of the word diverse. It basically means various in this context. Tymes is just times. Resorted means they made a choice and chose her.

They've already invented carbon negative concrete. They just don't use it due to cost. Is this process going to be cheaper than traditional concrete/steel? Probably not, so it will not be used as well unless we start mandating it.

Reply to comment by Weed_O_Whirler in Light traveling through a medium that slows it. Does the same photon emerge? by TheGandPTurtle
>elementary particles are all fungible. That means, they are truly identical, and they are impossible to label. So, if a photon is absorbed and then remitted, it doesn't really make sense to say "is it the same photon or a different one?" There aren't really "same" or "different" photons, there's just photons, unlabeled.
So then do we know for sure photons actually move and don't just vibrate or something causing the next one in the chain to vibrate or something like that? Kind of how AC current works except with photons?

There's a saying in medicine that you're not dead til you're warm and dead. Cold slows a lot of processes, and makes you survive longer.

That would honestly be really cool. It would probably be a good way to get them to lay off the actual wars too.

In the states we call that probation, and some sentences include it on top of the time in prison.

Reply to comment by Nizdizzle in Ontario Walmart turns into 'hotel' as storm-stranded shoppers get stuck for the night by jormungandrsjig
I'm not the op, but I'm a Walmart employee and while they're not perfect they do in fact take overtime seriously. Wages have gone up significantly. I've received a 50% increase in wages since 2020, where I was already making over 15 in a state that's still on federal minimum. The insurance isn't the best but it's definitely not bad. I can see a virtual doctor for free and most generic drugs are $4. Seeing an in person doctor is $35, which isn't super cheap it's also not super expensive either. They stopped pushing for part time and look to mostly have full time now with set schedules when possible.
In retail this is a good employer. Could they improve on some stuff? Yes. But they're not the evil empire. Like many jobs it really depends on who your management is.

They literally linked you to a scholarly research paper on it. No not everyone who gets cheated on gets violent. But amongst the subset of people prone to violence, infidelity can be a major trigger for a violent act.
