Officers showed up at the home and found a man struggling with a woman over a knife. An officer opened fire and struck the man, killing him at the scene. Only later did they discover the man who was killed lived at the home and was struggling to fend off the woman who had broken into his home.

Police say Brandon Durham, 43, had called 911 and reported multiple people outside his home shooting, then told the 911 operator that someone had entered his home through the front and back doors and he was locking himself in the bathroom.

He also told the 911 operator that he was home with his 15-year-old daughter, according to police. Officers kicked open the door after arriving on scene and hearing someone screaming as well as damage to vehicles parked outside the property, police said.

    Sadly this is the reality of it, he was targeted simply because he was a man attacked by a woman and society is often as misandrist as it is misogynistic.

        Misandry has been in since feminism got equality for women and thought “Can we go for revenge?”

        Edit: I’m not trying to dis anyone here, I believe the battle against sexism is a virtuous one. But unfortunately, we have a status quo where we only care about the rights of women and pretend being a man is life on “Easy Mode”, when that’s very much not the case.

        It’s why chuds go for grifters. They’re desperate for anyone to say that they matter. It’s just cult shit.

        Hating men is okay and if you point it out you’re an abusive rapist.

        We shouldn’t judge groups of people based on the actions of a minority, unless it’s men.
