I wish I had more to say for #HannahBaxter. Thoughts and prayers just don't cut it. I hope her murder and the murder of her three children may finally prompt a reaction to throw everything we have at ending the scourge of family violence we see every single week in Australia. 
Every tragedy that happens means we hear a new name. We learn about a new family killed by a partner who cannot accept the breakdown of a marriage or whatever the circumstance might be. And yet, the deaths continue. Family violence continues. It is a national tragedy.
If we truly believe that the standard we walk past is the standard we accept, as a country are we truly accepting the rate of family violence we see every week in our country? I do not think this is a standard any Australian can continue to accept.
