Florida couple’s political debate turns violent when Republican attacks his Democratic fiancé, authorities say
An argument between a Florida couple about their differing political views turned violent Wednesday, investigators said.
The Lee County Sheriff’s Office was called to a home in North Fort Meyers after a 70-year-old man allegedly grabbed his fiancé's neck and squeezed, an affidavit obtained by Fox News Digital states.
The woman, a "Democrat," called for help, investigators said.
"She (and the fiancé) had been fighting throughout the day and argued over politics because John was a Republican," the affidavit said. "During the verbal argument, (he) began calling her a Democrat and other names."
While sitting on the couch during the argument, (he) held her down and placed his hand on her face and the other hand around her neck, strangling her and restricting her airflow."

Article aside, how the hell are you engaged for 25 years?!
Eww, I could not stomach pairing up with someone with opposing views. Something tells me, however, that if the roles were reversed and the man were Democrat and the woman Republican, it might be a less tempestuous relationship, but I could be wrong.
