'LEWISVILLE — Unfavorable weather and insufficient advertising is being blamed for the low turn out to a rally planned in front of Lewisville City Hall.

Lewisville resident Robert Glen planned a Men Against Domestic Violence rally for March 23, but only four people showed up for the event.

“It was a total bust,” Glen said. “I know the weather wasn’t great, and I don’t think there was enough coverage to really get the rally going.”'

Plano woman sentenced to eight years for stabbing ex in back Excerpt:

'PLANO — Julia Decatur-Schrader, 40, of Plano, was sentenced to eight years in prison Friday for stabbing her ex-husband in the back.
...
Decatur-Schrader's 13-year-old daughter testified she had seen her mother carrying a "crazy knife" earlier in the evening, and that she had threatened to stab her ex-husband. While Schrader was in his apartment complex courtyard with his brother, Decatur-Schrader entered the courtyard and secretly activated her cell phone microphone and placed the phone on one of the courtyard tables.

Decatur-Schrader then charged at Schrader and began beating him on his face and head, cutting his scalp with her hands. Witnesses on a nearby balcony testified Schrader did not fight back, but ducked and tried to cover his face. When the witnesses threatened to call the police, Decatur-Schrader stopped and started to walk away.'

... if the organizers actually spoke the truth about DV and among other things asked men to show up to discuss their experiences with being punched, kicked, and slapped by women.

Bet the turnout'd be a lot higher then.

I think it's hilarious that the weather is being "falsely accused" of being responsible for the low turnout, when in reality nobody wants to attend a male-bashing event that's steeped in gender feminist misandry. Yea, I'm laughing at them.
