The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus - Face Down Domestic Violence Awareness Remix

Full screen! Crank the volume!
My 30th vid!

Stop by my brand new Facebook @ http://www.facebook.com/brandben7

Stopping domestic violence in all its forms is a cause that hits very close to home for me and many people close to me. It enrages me to no end that people still feel that assaulting the person you claim to love is in some way justifiable or at worst, their mandate as the "superior" partner. October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month here in the U.S. (since Oct 13 1995) and today I want to do my small part to get the word out. This songs message is simple and to the point: Domestic Violence is NOT okay, and there is a reckoning in store for all such perpetrators. I encourage EVERYONE to check out the lyrics at:

And as a personal favor to me, send this song to your friends and family to listen to and get them to read the lyrics, hell, you don't even have to send them the version I played, just get them to listen to this song somehow! Thanks to the Red Jumpsuit Apparatus for being so conscious and thank you for taking the time to read all this. Horns!!

Below are some statistics in regards to violence against women:

*Most murder-suicides with three or more victims involved a "family annihilator" — a subcategory of intimate partner murder-suicide.Family annihilators are murderers who kill not only their wives/girlfriends and children, but often other family members as well,before killing themselves.
