I don't suppose anyone on here is a lawyer? There is a situation involving a abusing home and my girlfriend and I would like to know if theres anything can be done before I have no choice but to stick my .45 up her father's @$$

No legal advice, but common sense advice:
Report him to the police.
No other option.

Bottom line is your GF has to report it to the police or they won't do anything unless she presses charges.

The action you need to take depends on whether or not she is over 18.

She isn't. Her worry is being moved away from the school district which is why she doesn't call the police.

I had a friend with similar situation, abuse at home and under the age of 18, he was moved away after the close of case.
Not what you want to hear but 9/10 times this is the case,
Good luck whatever she chooses to decide, but abuse has no place in ones life, personally I would have it report to police asap

Be prudent and call the cops or child protective services. They will have to investigate.

What is worse, being moved away from the school district, or dying? You would be surprised how quickly something like that can turn into a fatal incident, all it takes is a little push for some people.

I am an aspiring law student, so hear me out. There is nothing you can do other than report it to the police. Then too, the girl will have to attest to the domestic violence against her. If she is unwilling, you are done for. But if she testifies, then the father will have to answer for it. But remember one thing, the father is her natural guardian and you have no right butting in under normal circumstances. The dad is at an advantage here.
If all else fails, get a Smith & Wesson at the local pawn shop and fire it up his ass.
