Covers Up Police Oppression of Men

Domestic Violence
Family/Domestic Violence is dealt with in a
largely insane manner in Western countries. To understand why
Domestic Violence is treated in an insane manner in Western countries,
you have to understand its history. The Feminists only made a media
issue and political issue out of Domestic Violence in order to use it
as a stick to beat men with. Rosemary Hunter (Narratives of Domestic
Violence Sydney Law Review Vol. 28: 733) states in her Abstract:
Second wave feminists in Australia brought the social issue
of domestic violence out of the suburban shadows and into the activist
and policy spotlight in the 1970s.
Then they called it a "Women's Issue", which (if it meant
anything at all) meant that only women -- and Feminist women at that
-- were allowed to have an opinion on it. However, women are just
as violent towards men as vice versa -- see Professor
Fiebert's Annotated Domestic Violence Bibliography at http://www.csulb.edu/~mfiebert/assault.htm
Since then, the MUC (Media-University Complex)
has indulged in an orgy of anti-male (misandristic) propaganda about
Domestic Violence. Lenore Walker was a pioneer among these man-haters.
As Robert Sheaffer said in his review of her
book, "The Battered Woman",
The Battered Woman is unsatisfactory as a serious work,
and completely unacceptable as a foundation for family law. First,
it is profoundly unscholarly. Without objective verification of the
incidents herein described, they are nothing more than hearsay. Second,
the book does not even pretend to be objective: the woman's side,
and only the woman's side, is presented, when it is undeniable that
in a large percentage of cases, the woman initiates violence against
the man. Third, Prof. Walker's expanded definition of "battering"
that includes verbal abuse does not even address the issue of female
verbal abuse of men. Fourth, there is no reason whatsoever to believe
that Prof. Walker's sample of "battered women" is in any way a representative
sample, and even if it were, she presents no statistics to support
her conclusions. In fact, most of her conclusions are utterly unsupported
by any kind of data, and are simply pronounced ex cathedra.
Police Domestic Violence Policy
Although women commit just as much Domestic Violence as men do, it
is obvious that many more men than women are actually arrested for Domestic
Violence, even though the Police do not collect statistics on arrests
for Domestic Violence per se. In an email dated 4 October
2013, in reponse to an Official Information Act request, Gavin Knight,
Acting National Manager: Performance of the New Zealand Police, told
me that, from 1 July 2010 to 31 December 2012, 85% of persons bound
by Police Safety Orders (which are temporary evictions for the prevention
of Domestic Violence) were males. The Police do not routinely
gather statistics on the sex of such people, but a study of their demographics
was carried out in December 2012, resulting in the above statistics.
See below.

There is an obvious and
glaring discrepancy between the fact that women commit just as much
Domestic Violence as men and the fact that it is mainly men who are
arrested for Domestic Violence and evicted to prevent Domestic Violence.
This matter is in urgent need of research, but -- in the meantime
-- it is natural to speculate that the reasons are (a) Police anti-male
bias and (b) the reluctance of men to report female violence, for reasons
which inclued Police anti-male bias. The
Police are, in effect, the Women's Police. If you are in
Police power and call them the "Women's Police" (as I have
done on two occasions), they either make a false accusation against
you or try to provoke you, so that they can beat you up in self-defence.
Cover-Up by the Minister of Women's Police
In an effort to clear up and expose what was actually happening here,
I initiated the following correspondence, of which the first question
was transferred from the (then) Minister of Justice to the Minister
of Police. There was also some confusion (between them) as to
whether the Police themselves or the Minister would answer the question:

Hon. Judith Collins
Minister of Justice
Parliament House
Wellington
Dear Mrs. Collins,
The Ombudsmen have advised me to rephrase my recent Official Information
Act request to you in terms which are strictly compliant with that Act.
Under the Official Information Act, therefore, could you please answer
the following questions:
1. I refer to your statement that “… overwhelmingly, assault,
including in a domestic context, is committed by men.” Does the
Government have any policy document which recommends encouraging male
victims of female domestic violence to report it to the Police? The
deliberate absence of any such advertisements conspires to perpetuate
the myth that it is mainly men who commit domestic violence.
2. Does the Ministry of Justice hold copies of the following New Zealand
research papers, which demonstrate that it is an outrageous untruth
to state that “…overwhelmingly, assault, including in a
domestic context, is committed by men?” (a) Magdol, L., Moffitt,
T. E., Caspi, A., Fagan, J., Newman, D. L., & Silva, P. A. (1997).

Olds: bridging the gap between clinical and epidemiological approaches.

Now, it is obvious to any half-way intelligent and fair-minded
person that the above reply does not answer my question "Does
the Government have any policy document which recommends encouraging
male victims of female domestic violence to report it to the Police?"
The Minister of Woman's Police was perpetrating a devious cover-up and
did not even mention the word "document". The Victims'
Rights Act is irrelevant, since it only comes into play once the Police
have been called out and have decided who is the so-called "victim"
and who is the so-called "offender" (which they are quite
capable of getting wrong, anyway!). What I was asking about was
the process by which the Police get to hear about Domestic Violence
in the first place.
So I asked the Ombudsmen to enforce the Official Information Act:
|
14 March 2014
The Ombudsmen
P.O. Box 10152
Wellington
Dear Sir/Madam,
Could you please investigate and review the failure of the New Zealand
Police (request transferred from the Minister of Police) to reply to
my question, as specified in the enclosed copy of the reply which I
received from the Minister of Police?
Thank you in advance.
Yours sincerely,
Peter D. Zohrab

To my shocked surprise, the Ombudsman provided the following
biased or incompetent response:
|
 |
I contacted his assistant, Richard Ruddenklau, by telephone
and email, and he said I could write again, if dissatisfied with the
Ombudsman's response. So I wrote again, as follows:
Dear sir,
I have spoken to Richard Ruddenklau about this matter and he suggested
I write to you.
My question to the Minister was as follows:
"Does the Government have any policy document which recommends
encouraging male victims of female domestic violence to report it to
the Police? The deliberate absence of any such advertisements conspires
to perpetuate the myth that it is mainly men who commit domestic violence."
The Minister's answer clearly and obviously does not refer to any policy
document which recommends encouraging male victims of female domestic
violence to report it to the Police. The only document that it refers
to is the Victims' Rights Act 2002. From the first two paragraphs of
the Minister's reply that are quoted in your letter of 15 May 2014,
it is clear that the Victims' Rights Act 2002 has to do with Police
treatment of people who have already been identified by the Police as
being "victims" and are being processed in some way by the
Police.
My question to the Minister clearly referred to male victims of female
domestic violence who were not -- at that stage -- known to the Police
as victims, and therefore are not referred to in the Victims' Rights
Act 2002.
The third and final paragraph of the Minister's reply is not an excerpt
from any policy document, but merely the Minister uttering her usual
platitudes (which I have become used to from watching Parliament on
television).
Could you please ask the Minister to answer my question?
Yours sincerely,
Peter Zohrab

The following reply is evidence (if any was needed)
that intelligence and integrity are not both necessary characteristics
of a "Professor":
|
Sidestepping (for the time being) this outrageous behaviour
on the part of both the Minister and the Ombudsman, I decided to take
another approach and wrote to the Minister again (see below):
22 July 2014
Minister of Police
Parliament House
Wellington
Dear Anne Tolley,
On 26 January 2014 I put the following question to the Minister of
Justice, and it was forwarded to you:
"Does the Government have any policy document which recommends
encouraging male victims of female domestic violence to report it to
the Police? The deliberate absence of any such advertisements conspires
to perpetuate the myth that it is mainly men who commit domestic violence."
On 1 April 2014 I wrote to you again, complaining that you had failed
to answer that question. You again failed to answer the question.
Therefore I make the following request and question:
Could you please give me a copy of any and all New Zealand Police
policy documents which recommend that the New Zealand Police place advertisements
in the media which encourage male victims of female domestic violence
to report it to the Police? If there are no such policy documents, could
you please tell me so. The deliberate absence of any such advertisements
conspires to perpetuate the myth that it is mainly men who commit domestic
violence.
Yours sincerely,
Peter D. Zohrab

Finally, I got the reply that
I had wanted right at the beginning, which proved that I had been right,
and that there was no such document -- even though the Minister
and Ombudsmen had been behaving as if they were conspiring to prevent
me from getting the proof which I wanted:
|
Conclusion
Both the Minister of Police and the Ombudsman
are either grossly incompetent or deliberately trying to conceal the
facts here. The vast majority of politicians and academics are
vicious scum who are determined to oppress men by concealing facts and
preventing men from having any rights with respect to women. This
is quite insane, but that is the way it is in Western countries, which
have been conquered by brain-dead Feminism. |
