Myth: 95% of all abuse victims are women
Fact: Unbiased research shows that an equal number of men and women are victims. http://www.csulb.edu/~mfiebert/assault.htm It is dangerous to accept as "fact" research that depends on their findings for their funding.
Myth: 35% of women who visit medical emergency rooms are there for injuries related to domestic violence
Fact: National Institute of Justice and the Center for Disease Control show that ALL violence is responsible for about 3% of women'sINJURY-RELATED visits to emergency rooms, and domestic violence for about 1%.
Myth: Marriage is dangerous for women and children.
Fact: The safest place for women and children is in an intact home with both biological parents who are married to each other.
Fact: The CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES assures equal protection of ALL our people. There is no equal protection for men.The Violence Against Women Act only protects half the victims of domestic violence. It is used to train our police that only women can be victims. That is like having the KKK write racial relations laws. More information on this can be found at: http://www.shatterdmen.com/VAWA%20too.htm

The Violence Against Women Act
Please note that although the feminist claim the VAWA is gender neutral, I urge you to read for yourself and decide for yourself if it is indeed gender neutral
Also please note who had a major part in writing this act:
Senator Joseph Biden, the Delaware Democrat who once chaired the Senate Judiciary Committee, first proposed the VAWA in 1990. The bill was a collaborative effort, with key roles played by Victoria Nourse, then Senate Judiciary Committee counsel, and Sally Goldfarb, then NOW Legal Defense and Education Fund (NOW LDEF) staff attorney. A broad range of feminist groups offered input and support, and NOW LDEF's Pat Reuss lent lobbying expertise.
Radical feminist wrote this act. Would not this be like asking the klu klux klan to write laws concerning racial relations?
I ask you to substitute the word "women" in any of this with Black, Asians, or any other group. Would it be fair? Would it be Just? Would it stand the test of the Equal protection clause of the
CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES
Amendment XIV
Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside. No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
These are only a few things that this Unconstitutional act brings us:
State-by-State Office on Violence Against Women Grant Activities
The Office on Violence Against Women administers the Department of Justice's formula and discretionary grant programs authorized by the Violence Against Women Act of 1994. The program assists the nation's criminal justice system in responding to the needs and concerns of women who have been, or potentially could be, victimized by violence. Grant programs emphasize enhanced delivery of services to women victimized by violence; strengthen outreach efforts to minorities and disabled women; and provide Indian tribal governments with funds to develop and strengthen the tribal justice system's response to violent crimes committed against Native American women through a discretionary grant program. In addition, the office provides technical assistance to state and tribal government officials in planning innovative and effective criminal justice responses to violent crimes committed against women.
