people who encourage calling the cops in case of domestic violence situations have obv never had the cops called in domestically violent situations.
they’ll arrest & endanger the victim’s ass too. especially if they’re nonwhite & undocumented, and almost always is detrimental. so NO don’t encourage people to call 911 n ask for pepperoni pizza.
it’s better to document instances of abuse, HAVE A SAFETY PLAN, then leave and take legal action that you have control over.
Raksha Inc has a really comprehensive safety planning guide.
