From Media Radar
Abusegate refers to the systematic distortion of the truth about partner aggression by representatives of the domestic violence industry. These falsehoods form the basis of a well-financed but harmful effort to curb partner violence.
In January, we are mounting a high-profile campaign to inform the American public about the truth of domestic violence. At the national level, the campaign will be waged on 3 fronts:
1. A series of radio interviews featuring Dr. Donald Dutton of the University of British Columbia. Dutton is well-known for his willingness to challenge the prevailing domestic violence “paradigm,” as he likes to call it.
2. A series of op-ed columns by leading columnists.
3. A big lobbying effort on Capitol Hill highlighting how flawed information leads to flawed public policy.
Locally, we are inviting persons to get the word out every way imaginable: via blogs, letters to the editor, radio talk shows, messages to email lists, meetings, etc. Here’s a flyer you can pass out:

And here’s a Special Report that details many of the falsehoods:
Fifty Domestic Violence Myths
The fate of our families, our civil rights, indeed the fundamental values of our society hang in the balance. As VAWA comes up for reauthorization in 2010, we invite you to participate in this critical national effort to expose the lies of the DV industry.

Anti-dowry law makes it wife-biased, discriminatory,and poorly formulated. A complaint from your wife or her family member can land husband and his entire family in jail without any investigation. "The power of the Executive to cast a man into prison without formulating any charge known to the law, and particularly to deny him the judgment of his peers, is in the highest degree odious and is the foundation of all totalitarian government whether Nazi or Communist." - Winston Churchill
