------------------------------------------------------------ Family researchers Murray Straus and Katreena Scott recently released a report that documents how the domestic violence industry routinely hoodwinks the American public. "Gender Symmetry in Partner Violence" exposes all the tricks: falsifying research findings, blocking funding, and harassing researchers who cross the feminist party line: http://pubpages.unh.edu/~mas2/V70%20version%20N3.pdf
In one case professor Suzanne Steinmetz released a study that proved males and females are equally likely to perpetrate abuse: "Anger over this resulted in a bomb threat at her daughter's wedding."
Imagine a cabal of women threatening to blow up a white-dress bride on her wedding day — and in the name of stopping family violence!
Like a cancer that ravishes healthy cells, the corruption of the domestic violence industry is spreading to government agencies, as well.
In West Virginia, any domestic violence program that wants to receive government funding must have one-third of its staff certified by the state's Coalition Against Domestic Violence, a group that rejects on ideological grounds the suggestion that men can ever be abuse victims.
So earlier this month a group called Men and Women Against Discrimination filed a discrimination lawsuit, charging the state "has unlawfully delegated the appropriation of public funds into the hands of a private entity, i.e., the West Virginia Coalition Against Domestic Violence."
False allegations have become endemic, as well.
Last month former Olympic ice skater Oksana Grishuk accused James R. Halstead, a wealthy California investor, of dropping a date rape drug into her drink. Grishuk had won two gold medals for Russia in the 1990s.
The two had been involved in a lengthy romantic relationship. But when Halstead refused Grishuk's request to tie the knot, she furtively slipped the pills in her drink.
The Orange County judge dismissed the case last Monday after it was reported she had demanded of her ex-boyfriend, "Can't you find me a man with money who could take care of me?"
Lesbian advances, propaganda-like claims, fabrication of research, sex discrimination, and false allegations. All in a day's work for the good ladies of the domestic violence industry. -------------------------------------------------------------
