Political Commentary and Opinion

Violence is something all people do, and is not based on Gender or Sex as the government and Feminists wants people to believe! Bigots and Hypocrites are those who fear the Other Side of Violence and refuse to speak out about it!

Since it's not political correct to question Women's violence on Men and Children, we felt that it something both the feminist and government must start to view, as they say and state that they support equality under and before the laws, and if people can not stop making excuses for violence because one gender is not not correct to question, then they should just keep bury their heads in the sand, because we will not!.

If your looking for information on violent men there is plenty of feminist fluff on the internet on their websites full of disinformation.

Example. 

After years of reflexively dismissing domestic violence as a crime affecting "others," Swedes are taking action to stop it. There's not a sentence in the article about domestic violence committed by women.

NYT FALSIFIES THE TRUTH ABOUT DV

« H » Domestic Violence ::Activism ::Disinfo Alert (Big3 Media) ::News ::Human Rights :: email link

When it comes to committing domestic violence, women are fully the equal of men. Scores of research studies in the United States and elsewhere show that women are just as likely as men to engage in partner aggression. And fully 38% of persons who suffer injuries from domestic violence are male.  

But the New York Times consistently portrays the domestic violence issue as men who beat up their wives and girlfriends. That depiction is scurrilous and false. 

On April 6, 2005 the Times published the article, “Sweden Boldly Exposes a Secret Side of Women’s Lives.” Most disturbing was this description of domestic abusers: “It’s not alcoholics and drug users…It’s every man and in every class of society.” Every man? In every class of society? But not women?  

The article did not provide a shred of evidence to support such a sweeping statement, nor did NYT reporter Lizette Alvarez dispute that hateful allegation. 

In response to this statement, RADAR – a coalition of men and women who are working for balanced media coverage of domestic violence – issued an Alert on April 10. The Alert called upon persons to contact public editor Daniel Okrent, requesting the Times to retract this ideologically-slanted article.  

Hundreds of e-mails, letters, and telephone calls went out to the Times. But Mr. Okrent did not respond. Publishing a one-sided and libelous article, and then refusing to respond to persons’ concerns, is an example of media arrogance. 

Beginning April 18, RADAR will go to Phase II of its effort to stop the falsification of truth about domestic violence at the Times. 

Phase II:

April 18-22: Concerned persons will contact all the editors at the New York Times, requesting a retraction of the Alvarez article, and asking the editors to assure objectivity and balance in future coverage of domestic violence.

Phase III:

On-going: Request columnists to write articles on bias at the New York Times 

Phase IV

April 30: Protest at the annual White House Correspondents Dinner at the Washington Hilton, 1919 Connecticut Ave., NW, Washington, DC 20009. 4:00 – 8:00pm.

Persons are encouraged to wear T-shirts with an appropriate domestic violence message and to carry a sign. 

More information about this campaign will be posted at www.mediaradar.org.

STUDIES AND REFERENCES EXAMINING VIOLENCE ( See Studies )

This web Section of Fathers Canada will look at the Violence of Women, as their not that much information on this issue.

This website is raising issues and perspectives that have been ignored for much too long in Society and there are many Radical Feminist and their Government partners, who don't wish the public to know or understand the issues put forth on the Other side of Violence. Violence in any form on any person is wrong, whether it be on Men, Women and Children, all Violence must stop. Just as misandry the Governments of Canada and their Feminist freinds put forward in the laws, legislation and in their policies must stop also.

George: taking men's rights into the 21st Century

 

Men shout out about domestic violence...

George Rolph is 6ft 4in. He weighs in at 14 stone and is a trained karate instructor.

But now he is directing his energies towards fighting for men who suffer domestic abuse.

George is on a mission

Recent research indicates that men are as just as likely to be on the receiving end of domestic abuse as women. George says: "One young man, who'd been married two weeks, had hot fat poured on his lap for changing the channel."

Despite his size and martial arts expertise, George was also a victim of domestic abuse. George says: "She came upstairs carrying this large square of half inch ply wood. She brought the edge of it down on my head." George was physically and verbally abused. Unfortunately, he is not alone. Many men don’t fight back, physically or legally, due to a lack of knowledge about what can be done and because they fear the kind if response they will provoke. George says: "Men dismiss you if you say a woman is beating you up. For a start they look at you with contempt a lot of the time." George is trying to encourage men who live with domestic abuse to come forward and admit the problem. 

This is the first step in any case of domestic violence. He has started a UK based website, Man2Man, where men come to talk about their ordeal with others. Despite this, the help for abused men is still decades behind the women's movement.

In 1971 Erin Pizzey opened the world’s first refuge for battered women in London.

Erin fought for men

Even then she struggled to bring the issue of battered men to the fore. Erin says: "As soon as I opened the first refuge for women in Chiswick I said I need a home for men. But I couldn’t raise a penny for men." George and others who have suffered are on a mission to publicise the problem. One victim says: "My wife attempted to kill me by smashing my head in front of my children. All she got was a caution."

Victims take a stand

George is sure that things won’t change until the government highlight the problem and back action to prevent it.

He decides it’s time the campaign is taken to the top. He heads straight for City Hall and the London Mayor, Ken Livingstone.




Find out how Ken Livingstone reacts when George challenges him to finally address the issue of domestic violence against men.

Institutional Resistance to Acknowledging Intimate Male Abuse*
 
Eugen Lupri, Ph.D.; Professor Emeritus of Sociology; The University of  Calgary, Calgary, Alberta, Canada
 
http://fathersforlife.org/fv/Alta/rtd/A3_Counter-CP_May_7_04_Lupri.doc
 
Revised paper presented at the Counter-Roundtable Conference on Domestic Violence, Calgary, Alberta, Canada, May 7, 2004. (MS doc. 82.kB )
 
This is a discussion paper recounting the obstacles put in the way of an  objective report on intimate partner violence. Unfortunately, censorship is alive and well in Canada.
 
It is better to let Professor Lupri tell what happened to that study report and why he chose to attend the Counter-Roundtable Conference on Domestic Violence rather than to participate in the government-sponsored FV roundtable discussion.
 
He made that decision after he had been told that an expanded version of the commissioned document would not be published in connection with the biased information that the powers promoting and preserving the feminist anti-male ideology and dialectics at the Alberta Roundtable on Family Violence and Bullying published and distributed. Here is Professor Lupri:
 
    ---Quote---

 

 This paper was an unpublished and expanded version of a commissioned document that I, with Dr. Elaine Grandin, had prepared for the /'Family Violence Prevention Unit of Health Canada'/ in the summer of 2002. It had survived four rounds of review, but for reasons that I shall detail later, the /'National Clearing House on Family//Violence'/ had not yet published it. 

After one year of stalling, I felt that the /'Family Violence/ /Prevention Unit'/ was no longer interested in the commissioned document. Since then more recent cross-cultural and other studies have reported some of the most compelling evidence undergirding the position that women are no less violent than men. 

Because of these newer findings, I decided to expand and revise the paper. By early January, the paper had evolved as "work in progress." I shared the paper with interested colleagues and friends and asked for their comments. I followed one major principle of evaluation: 

Do empirical data support the idea or theory that I am proposing? I thought, quite innocently in retrospect, that members of the Alberta Roundtable and the powers that be would also be interested in the paper. It was an updated and detailed report on male abuse ['/by women —WHS/'] with some cross-cultural and comparative findings on man-to-woman violence. I was wrong.

Texas woman who says God told her to smash kids' skulls acquitted
Canadian Press
Saturday, April 03, 2004

TYLER, Texas (AP) - A Texas woman who claimed God ordered her to bash in the heads of her sons was acquitted Saturday of all charges after a jury determined she was legally insane during the killings.

A jury found Deanna Laney did not know right from wrong May 9 when she killed her two older sons, ages six and eight, in the front yard and left the youngest, now two, maimed in his crib. Laney, 39, was found not guilty by reason of insanity of charges of capital murder and serious injury to a child.

Laney broke into tears as the verdict was read. Her husband, Keith Laney, sat emotionless. A few jurors cried and struggled to maintain their composure.

State law allows Laney to be committed to a maximum-security state hospital. Medical evaluations will dictate when she will be released.

In closing arguments earlier Saturday, prosecutors portrayed the killings last Mother's Day weekend as deceptively planned and coldly executed.

"It was graphic, it was horrific and it was brutal," prosecutor Matt Bingham told the jury.

Laney had faced life in prison for the deaths of eight-year-old Joshua and six-year-old Luke, and the beating of Aaron, now two.

Bingham pounded his fist in his hand as he recounted Joshua's killing: "He got strike after strike after strike on his head to the point that his brains were coming out of his head like liquid."

Defence lawyers argued insanity was the only reason why a deeply religious mother who homeschooled her children would kill two of them and maim another without so much as a tear.

All five mental-health experts consulted in the case, including two for the prosecution and one for the judge, concluded a severe mental illness caused Laney to have psychotic delusions that rendered her incapable of knowing right from wrong during the killings - the standard in Texas for insanity.

Psychiatrists testified Laney believed she was divinely chosen by God - just as Mary was chosen to bear Christ - to kill her children as a test of faith and then serve as a witness after the world ended.

Prosecutors portrayed the killings as deceptively planned and coldly executed. They said even if Laney believed she was doing right by God, she had to have known she was doing wrong by state law. Her first call, they pointed out, was to 911 to summon authorities.

Hounded over her name?

MARK BONOKOSKI HAS COFFEE WITH THE WOMAN WHO SHOT HER HUSBAND
By MARK BONOKOSKI

IF INFAMY is allotted the same amount of time as the late Andy Warhol restricted to fame, then Christine Alexander has surely used up her 15 minutes. Yet, almost 10 years after her first brush with infamy, she still
wants to push that envelope.

"The whole story is still not out yet," she says, sitting in a Whitby coffee shop a short walk from the women's shelter where she has lately taken refuge. Shelters and fears of persecution have been constants in her life as of late -- if not a shelter, then a prison block or a jail cell -- and with "everyone out to get me," she says.

The clock on her infamy first began ticking in the town of Bowmanville back in November 1995, when Alexander was seen running from the bungalow where she had just shot her husband in the face.

Gunplay in a quiet town got her in the headlines, for sure, and also guaranteed that there would be a crush of reporters in the courtroom when her case came to trial. As Crown attorney Lisa Cameron laid it out for the jury, Christine Alexander was a jealous woman who stalked and assaulted her estranged husband, David
Alexander, and would confront him with knives and a gun during their marriage -- a violent relationship that ultimately ended when she shot him in the head, leaving him today with a rifle bullet lodged near his spinal
cord. "He remembers, as he was lying on the floor, seeing her holding the rifle barrel and swinging the handle at his head," the Crown told the jury. "She was saying, 'I'm sorry. I love you. But if I can't have you, nobody can.' "

The Crown sought 11 years in prison.

The defence asked for two years less a day.

In the end, Mr. Justice Alf Stong credited Alexander's two years of pre-trial custody as four years toward her sentence and then tacked on another year to be served.

Unsure whether her 15 minutes were up, Christine Alexander decided to made up time by suing the ex-husband she shot in the face for financial support.

That, too, earned her a few headlines.

"When I got out of jail he had taken both houses," she told the court.

"It was me who basically got us where we were financially. Now I have nothing."

Her ex-husband's lawyer, Peter Tetley, told the court that if Christine Alexander had had her way back when she was holding that rifle, his client would have paid with his life.

A few days ago, sitting in a coffee shop in Whitby, a short walk from the women's shelter where she now stays, 56-year-old Christine Alexander was asked about the outcome of her challenge for support payments.

"I got nothing. Not a cent," she says. "The judge said no money and that was that.

"It's nonsense," she says. "I'm happy. I'm finally away from the violence and the physical abuse. "What I want now is for the police to stop harassing and assaulting me, and the government to leave me alone," she says.

"Because I shot my husband, they now want to hound me the rest of my life."

In one letter to the editor, her ex-husband took umbrage at his wife being portrayed in the press as a victim and denied ever physically abusing her -- only "restraining her from time to time from hitting or coming at me,
sometimes with weapons of sorts."

He got his point across.

In the meantime, police in Oshawa and Whitby know of Christine Alexander.

Type her name into the system and a few eyecatchers appear -- "high risk for violence," prohibited from possessing firearms, probation for threatening death, and "possibly suicidal."

"Look at this," Alexander says, waving a warning letter from the ministry of community and social services that demands immediate attention to avoid losing her social assistance.

"Now they're cutting off my money," she says. "Would they be doing that if my name wasn't Christine Alexander? "Can't you see? They're hounding me to death."

 

Comment, it seems the media and feminist groups make too many excuses for violence on men and children and keep on ignoring the fact.

Mother confesses to sex with sons... Had intercourse with 2 teenagers...Pleads guilty to incest charges

DIANNE WOOD TORSTAR NEWS SERVICE

Kitchener-A Kitchener woman has pleaded guilty to having sexual intercourse with her two teenage sons on separate occasions. The woman can't be named to protect the identities of her sons. She sobbed in Kitchener's Ontario Court on Friday as the two incest charges were read out and the facts given. The 35-year-old woman will be sentenced next month. Crown prosecutor Mark Poland said outside court that sentences for incest can range from house arrest to a prison term. He said such cases, involving mothers, are rare.

"We see it the other way around where the father's abusing the daughter way more frequently," Poland said. The court heard that the woman told a worker at an alcohol detoxification centre what she'd done after going there to deal with her alcoholism. Alcohol was involved in both incidents. Poland said after the woman split up with her husband, the boys lived with her. A few months later, she left them at her husband's doorstep with a note saying she couldn't take care of them.

After some time, she began visiting her sons at her ex-husband's home. This lasted for several years until her husband began to suspect she was drinking, and reduced the contact. From 2001 to 2003, there was almost no contact with the boys, court heard. Her ex-husband allowed contact to resume after the woman assured him she was no longer drinking. The boys began visiting the woman and her boyfriend at her home again this
year.

During one visit on Jan. 30, the mother gave her sons alcohol, court heard. As the night wound on, everyone went to bed except the woman and one son. He and his mother began a conversation about his girlfriend, which turned to sexual matters. The two embraced, removed their clothes and sexual intercourse followed. The next day, they discussed what had happened, decided it was wrong and said it would not occur again. On March 12, the two boys were visiting their mother once more. Again, alcohol was provided.

Everyone went to bed except the second son. He was feeling drunk. His mother helped him downstairs to bed and started to tuck him in. He began playing with his mother's hair and they began a conversation about his social life. The teen told his mother he was having sexual fantasies about her. They embraced and had sex. The next day, the mother talked with the second boy and they decided it would never happen again.
Several days later, the woman relayed a message to her ex-husband to pick up the boys because she had to go into a detoxification clinic, where she admitted she'd had sex with her sons. Family and Children's Services were called and then police. The boys confirmed her story. The woman also pleaded guilty to breaching a court order not to contact her sons after her arrest.

2 women deny rape charges
Wednesday, January 19, 2005

NORTHAMPTON - Two women, one a Smith College student, pleaded innocent to rape and assault charges yesterday in connection with a sexual encounter that a prosecutor said started out consensual and turned into a rape involving handcuffs and knives. Northampton District Court Judge W. Michael Goggins set bail at $2,500 cash or $25,000 surety for Rachel Ann Klobertanz, 22, and Augusta Claire Kendall, 22, at their arraignments yesterday morning. Kendall was released on bail yesterday morning.  The two appeared in court shackled and handcuffed, wearing jeans and hooded sweat shirts. Assistant District Attorney Susan J. Loehn said the 20-year-old victim, who is a Smith College student as is Kendall, met the two defendants in downtown Northampton and went to their 104 South St. apartment.

The woman went there voluntarily, despite the fact she had obtained a restraining order against Klobertanz in August, according to Loehn and police reports. The incidents took place Friday night into Saturday morning, police said. The three had "several bottles of champagne" and then went to a bedroom where the three engaged in consensual sex, according to Loehn and police reports. During the encounter, the victim was placed in handcuffs, although she did not remember how, police reports state. After Kendall slapped her face, the victim told the two she wanted to stop, police said. They refused, and Kendall cut her abdomen and other areas of her body with a knife and raped her while Klobertanz held her legs, police said. FULL STORY
