SAVE: Tell Gateway Pundit to Stop Pushing Fake DV Myths
A recent news article falsely scared the public with the title:
“HORROR! Domestic Violence Up 21% in Cities Across the US Due to Covid 19 Lockdowns”. [1]
False. Fake. Untrue.
There is an “assumption” stay-at-home orders are increasing DV, but the evidence SAVE has uncovered over the past 10 weeks shows the contrary. The fake news wants us to believe otherwise.
SAVE has been closely monitoring and analyzing domestic violence-related police reports in 33 large localities around the country.
The accurate results show domestic violence calls were steady or fewer than before coronavirus restrictions were put in place. Only 3 cities reported a “minor or small” increase in the number of calls. Three. [2]
We need your help to dispel the atrocious domestic violence rate increase myths.
Please email the author of this fake news, Jim Hoft at midwestjim@charter.net
Ask him to dig deep and report the truth that DV rates are overall the same or down.
Thank You,
The SAVE Team
