Domestic Assault Isn't Funny (Unless Shown in Creative PSAs That Happen to be Funny)

This is the look of a man whose coffee has just been spilled

I know I am probably late on this, but bear with me. Calgary Home Front, self proclaimed as "united in breaking the cycle of domestic violence," may have created the best PSAs to date (I'm told these are from 2003). This video features a man eating with his kids. Within the clip, the classic line of "She spilled my coffee" is spoken, followed by a beat down of epic proportions, and pouring coffee all over the snarky waitress. The ending is great only because the kids to do not act like anything has happened (nor does anyone else in the restaurant). A strong, strong message sent, but nonetheless a hilariously ridiculous situation.

More after the jump.



Their second video features a typical business setting. Everyone is looking sharp in their nice suits, and then Baldy McStaplerthrow snaps! He slams her head into that table in a way John Cena can appreciate. The stapler throw at the end really showed her what for! Again, the reaction of the co-workers is great because none of them think to detain this hulky piece of man muscle. Anyway, here they are if you have not seen them yet. Those crazy Canadians and their ways of handling domestic assault...

AUTHOR'S NOTE: I am in no way condoning domestic violence. It is the belief of anyone associated with this site that abusive men and women are terrible, terrible people only compensating for their lack of a brain, personality, self-esteem, etc. (which is no excuse). Let's all make a deal that the next time we see/hear/feel/taste someone abusing someone else, we pick that person up and throw them in the pit of fire.

BONUS VIDEO!!!
This video from Australia shows us how they handle domestic violence down under.
