Men 

The hidden half of domestic violence

How to have eternal life

Fight VAWA 2005

The Violence Against Women Act  

is up for renewal.  

The VAWA is up for renewal and plans are already under way to strenghten it and add more insult to injury to half the victims of domestic violence.  It is time to fight it now.   Below are the names of the sponsors of this bill in both the Senate and Congress along with contact information for both houses.  

Who do you think made this statement?

It may surprise you when you find out.



"In my house, being raised with a sister and three brothers, there
was an absolute – it was a nuclear sanction, if under any
circumstances, for any reason, no matter how justified, even self-
defense – if you ever touched your sister, not figuratively,
literally. My sister, who is my best friend, my campaign manager, my
confidante, grew up with absolute impunity in our household. And I
have the bruises to prove it. I mean that sincerely. I am not
exaggerating when I say that."
"And I have the bruises to prove it."



The author? None other then Senator Joe Biden...the originator of
the Violence Against Women Act. Umm wouldn't ya think he would
know better then most that women can be violent too???

Contact your Senator and Congressman today to voice your disappointment that once again, men are forgotten and actually abused more by their actions.  Please notice that the title is to prevent violence against women.  There is NO mention about the violence done to men.
