This thread disgusts me because In trying to provide accurate information you use language/rhetoric that defends the abusers and you leave out VITAL information.

Information like, police officers who were arrested, charged and convicted of abuse, more than half kept their jobs. https://twitter.com/policemanmeme/status/1267094474414534660

Also this thread conveniently fails to mention that a caveat for these inaccurate numbers includes “Victims often fear calling the police, because they know the case will be handled by officers who are colleagues and/or friends of their abuser.“

Another caveat failed to be mentioned?

“Victims of police family violence typically fear that the responding officers will side with their abuser and fail to properly investigate or document the crime." National Center for Women & Policing

All of this saying that your “28%” is VERY under reported. But even that under reported number indicates that domestic violence is 2-4 times more common among police families than the average American family. Which was not mentioned as a concern in your thread
