on VAWA
"VAWA 2005 cannot help women much, if at all. Worse, it belittles their 
anguish, ignores their needs and insults their intelligence. In many cases, 
it makes a bad situation so much worse, it's a wonder this kind of approach 
has lasted a full decade, since originally being signed into law in 1994. At 
the heart of VAWA is the mistaken presumption that by removing women from 
their homes, jailing their husbands and indoctrinating their children, this 
will have a positive impact on intimate partner abuse....While proponents of 
VAWA would like to believe that what they call "gender violence" is aptly 
solved by female victims separating from their male abusers, the actual 
problem is far more intricate. There may be a case of mutual abuse, or an 
addiction to violence, or a dogged belief that the abuser will magically 
change someday. Not all cases of intimate partner abuse escalate to murder, 
or even serious physical harm."
 
http://mensnewsdaily.com/archive/letters/02/reader082702.htm from Trudy's fan 
on VAWA "Those who profit most from this massive bureaucracy could care less 
who is hurt. Certainly, children, to them, are simply pawns. But the 
neofeminists who think that they are "winning" will see a time when their 
ardent support vanishes. The moment the industry senses that it might augment 
its profits by persecuting women, these people will be among the first to be 
sacrificed. We already see early signs of this. Cops in some cities have 
grown so disgusted that they are now automatically arresting both spouses in 
domestic disputes. Who could blame them? But what is less visible is the 
frenzy of grant applications being filed by these bogus treatment centers to 
fund the "treatment" of women, too."
