"Is this a case of domestic violence? That's hard to say without context. The Justice Department's definition of domestic violence is "a pattern of abusive behavior that is used by one partner to gain or maintain power and control over another intimate partner."

We simply don't know if there's a "pattern" here, since we hear little from Rousey about this relationship. "

What I stated was crystal clear: A SINGLE incident is enough to be prosecuted as domestic violence regardless of the sex of the perpetrator. There's enough men and women in court ordered counseling to attest to this.

The article is blatantly trying to differentiate between her admitted action and what is seen on a daily basis in courtrooms across the country by throwing the DOJ definition in there.

Fact of the matter is, if her boyfriend went to the cops and pressed charges, she would have a criminal record for DV.

"Where was the peace when we were getting shot? Where's the peace when we were getting laid out?
Where is the peace when we are in the back of ambulances? Where is the peace then?
They don't want to call for peace then.
