I don't have any personal anecdotes about "bitches", just what I read in the papers, my friend. And yes, the proper term is butchered. Hunted down in the street in front of the neighbours and had her throat cut. Sounds like butchery to me - maybe not to you. (where on a woman's body would you find the steaks anyway?) I'm amazed that a street full of Canadians would stand by and watch it happen.

Up here the cops agitated for years until they were given the power to lay charges in cases of domestic abuse. They were tired of seeing women treated like punching bags with no recourse and no one on their side. I'm not sure what the law is down in the Excited States, but I'm pretty sure that in most states it's the same as in Canada - the police can lay charges in cases of domestic violence. Generally speaking, I find Americans are a step ahead of Canadians when it comes to liberal positions on social justice. YMMV.

This case might fit your definition of butchery and it's just the top citation of a google search.

I'm not sure what women have ever done to you, but in your present state of mind, I doubt I'd introduce you to my sister.

Citation please. I can point to any number of cases where wives have obtained restraining orders and been butchered in the street in front of the neighbours. The cops say there is little they can do until a crime has been committed.

HMCS Canada maybe.

I was taught to take notes by the infantry. We learned to use a Field Note Book. It is graphed and fits in a pants pocket. Because of the small format, it teaches brevity and the graph paper enables those graphically challenged to diagram gun emplacements, terrain, troop deployments and so on. When I returned to the navy, I made sure to have a steady supply of field not books handy. I can't get them anymore but there are plenty of like sized graphed note books for sale.
