well....that would make him less than smart, wouldn't it!?
(from the perspective of a former victim of domestic abuse---I was more terrified of the EX when he was raging and throwing/destroying things, than when he would just hit/shove/push me. When he was throwing things (in a rage) there was absolutely no telling what he'd throw, where'd it go or what he would do to destroy something. One time, he punched a door, left a hole. That was not good enough, and he ripped the door off the hinges and completely destroyed it. I didn't dare move, speak or even breathe too hard--he could have turned on me. Destroying possessions is a way that abusers intimidate their victims)
