Domestic violence a gender-balanced issue

Domestic violence a gender-balanced issue, although one would never know from the  mainstream media. The latter promotes a massive, all-pervasive anti-male bias, emphasized by a pronounced pro-female and pro-homosexual bias. National Post Barbara Kay: We’re still ignoring abused straight men Posted: April 22, 2008, 4:38 PM by Marni Soupcoff Barbara Kay Heterosexual men can’t catch a break from the media. When they’re aggressors, they’re condemned. When they’re victims, they’re ignored. Conversely, when women — gay or straight — and gay men are victims, they’re pitied. And when they’re aggressors, they’re … hmm…also pitied. A new study by Statistics Canada confirms what researchers in the field of domestic violence proved years ago: … Continue reading

Violence against women!? It is propaganda

Turning the personal into the political The other day someone let me view a video on Islamic violence against women. The video contained many instances of gruesome violence against women, amongst them, the murder of a Jordanian girl, an honour killing.  It had happened perhaps about 14 or more years ago.  I wrote about it on Mothers_Day_1998, when a TV program, “Mothers and their Daughters”, mentioning it was broadcast by CTV Edmonton. That CTV program was about as revolting as the video of Islamic violence against women I watched the other day. Who knows, the two videos may even be the same. I can’t tell, too much time has gone … Continue reading

The divorce industry and fatherlessness

To many people the term divorce industry means absolutely nothing. It does, however, mean something to two minor sectors of the population.  One of them is currently in a position of power to control social evolution. Activists and advocates for pro-family rights and pro-fathers-rights consider the terms divorce industry and fatherlessness to be strongly related. They feel that fatherlessness is tearing apart the fabric of our once-functioning society. They have reason to believe that the divorce industry causes fatherlessness, that is: the removal and the consequences of that removal of fathers from the lives of those fathers’ children. For feminists in non-governmental organizations and in government (whether elected or simply … Continue reading

Drivers-licence removal as criminal punishment

In relation to drivers-licence removal as criminal punishment, the international networking by English-speaking jurists, judiciary activists, activist judges, and by their adjuncts (non-governmental organizations) is fast and – if not efficient – extremely effective. Therefore it frequently happens that innovative laws and forms of punishment for ostensible criminals make their appearance simultaneously or only separated in time by extremely short intervals in many different English-speaking countries throughout the world. For instance, in English-speaking countries, drivers-licence removal is a popular and longstanding form of punishment (it has been around for a decade and more) for minor crimes, primarily the “crime” of falling into arrears with child support payments – not necessarily … Continue reading

Jailed DV victim needs blankie, soother

Re: Jailed DV victim needs blankie, soother — Christie Blatchford’s April 12, 2008 article in the Globe and Mail, “A witness in need of a blankie, soother” shows that she has a firm grip on reality.  There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that Christie Blatchford’s opinions regarding the sham of the trial in which Ms. Mowatt made her public appearance are many times more valuable and realistic than the media-hype and show of phony outrage that Charles Adler and his supporters could muster during the sympathy orgy on the Charles Adler show this morning. Charles Adler and his callers need a dose of reality. This morning I listened to … Continue reading
