Wife beaters, all of you!!!!!

The article said she was intervening in an altercation between her husband and son. In my unqualified opinion a mother has every right to take whatever reasonable action is required to prevent harm to her child, including capping the violence prone dirtbag twice in the chest. Fleeing the scene without intervening would be the unlawful act in my book.

i guess it depends on how old and how big the son was. if an adult man is beating a two year old, that's one thing (disparity of force). but if it's a strapping 18 y.o. getting into a shouting match with pops, that's a garden variety family dispute.
