I live in Los Angeles. Thanks to all the man-hating bigots in the Femi-crat party LAPD and all other PD's in CA are trained under VAWA - STOP grants to be man-hating goons who arrest men on the slightest accusation of domestic violence by a female. There's no due process and restraining orders are issued like candy. Domestic violence advocates routinely coach females to lie to gain advantage in divorce and child custody proceedings - not to mention just general revenge when a relationship is going badly. "Hell hath no fury like a woman who percieves herself scorned." Of course destruction of the traditional family is a major goal of the Commie-crat party. LAPD officers who do not follow the "goals" of the gender feminists for arrests of men are disciplined or otherwise harassed, and kept from doing there jobs in a fair and responsible manner. LAPD is now the enforcer of the police state hatred of the Femi-crat state of Commie-fornia. Los Angeles is just one of the major cities that works that way.The Violence Against Women Act is one of the most insidious, one of the biggest frauds to be foisted on the taxpayers of America in the history of America. VAWA is coming up for reauthorization, and will be asking for billions more dollars to falsely and criminally destroy more lives for the sake of the Femi-crat hate agenda. It is time to end the gender feminist Violence Against Women Act and give our traditional families and law enforcement a badly needed break, Make the Violence Against Women Act Gender Inclusive, or Dump It! ...and it all begins in the tens of thousands of tax-payer funded, Stalinist, man-hating, women's studies classes taught in America's college classrooms.

Here is this quote from an article by Glenn Sacks a Los Angeles based radio show host and journalist,

"Domestic violence activist Greg Schmidt, a police lieutenant who created the Seattle police department's domestic violence investigation unit in 1994, says that cases like Erickson's demonstrate the way men are often presumed guilty in domestic disputes. He notes that mandatory arrest laws, such as California's, frustrate police officers because they are "expected to make arrests in petty incidents, often where the woman is the aggressor, the abuse is mutual, or it is unclear who the aggressor was." "The domestic violence industry--the trainers, the shelter directors, etc.--can spin things however they want," he says, "but most street cops know that women are just as likely to start domestic disputes as men are. But arresting women puts you under lot of scrutiny. It's bad for your career." Schmidt also criticizes the dominant aggressor doctrine which discourages dual arrests (which are often an appropriate measure) and instructs police to downplay who struck the first blow. Instead, police are asked to focus on who is (supposedly) in control of the situation and who is more fearful--often code words for "arrest the man." Part of the problem is the training that police officers receive from the domestic violence industry, which insists that 95% of domestic violence is committed by men. Southern California domestic violence consultant Anne O'Dell, who has conducted over 500 domestic violence trainings of police officers and commanders, judges, district attorneys, and victim advocates, tells her trainees that "if a police officer is arresting more than 8% women, you've got a real problem. When an officer arrests 12% or 15% women, I'm outraged." O'Dell says that dual arrests should occur in no more than 3% of incidents."

There is virtually no current data which supports the "95%" myth. According to the US Department of Justice's 1998 Report on the National Violence Against Women Survey, men comprise nearly 40% of all domestic violence victims. California State Long Beach University professor Martin Fiebert has compiled an on-line bibliography (www.csulb.edu/~mfiebert/assault.htm) which examines 130 scholarly investigations (104 empirical studies and 26 reviews and/or analyses) which demonstrate that women are as physically aggressive, or more aggressive, than men in their relationships with their spouses or male partners. The aggregate sample size in the reviewed studies exceeds 77,000.
