I do not work for any campaign, and I do appreciate if people mention their affiliations while posting. Several people do exactly that on Daily Gotham.
To bring the discussion back to the issues, JB, I hope you bother to look at the campaign websites. Towns's page mentions nothing about domestic violence, if that is important as it seems to you. Kevin Powell includes this on his platform:
"Gender Equality/Ending Violence Against Women
"* Roe v. Wade's guarantees of a woman's right to choose cannot be weakened.
"* We must dedicate ourselves to supporting strong anti-violence/anti-domestic violence initiatives that prevent violence against women and that support victims of domestic violence."
Ed Towns's Wikipedia page does not mention domestic violence, while the Kevin Powell's page say this:
"He has become a very outspoken critic of violence against women and girls, of violence in general, and he has been at the forefront of the movement to redefine American manhood away from sexism and violence."
Of course, these are partisan viewpoints, but it's good to see what the partisans are saying. As far as I can tell, Ed Towns never was concerned with domestic violence until they wanted to use it as a tool to discredit Kevin Powell.
