USA: The federal Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) is out of control for 12 reasons:

  1. Has been ineffective in stopping abuse
  2. Provides incentives to file false allegations and break-up families
  3. Betrays women
  4. Spreads one-sided and biased information
  5. Allows states to expand the definition of "domestic violence" to encompass virtually all types of family disagreement, even raising your voice
  6. Promotes immigration fraud
  7. Encourages the issuance of restraining orders, even in the absence of physical violence
  8. Funds harmful mandatory arrest policies
  9. Biases the judiciary
  10. Condones the mismanagement of federal funds
  11. Costs taxpayers $20 billion a year to help at-risk children who are harmed by family break-up
  12. Illegally discriminates against male victims of abuse
