Why Is The GOP Against Reauthorizing The VAWA?

The pinhead lied from the start of the thread.

I really am beginning to think he is brain damaged or something.

How could one possibly not understand the difference between a FACT (proven with actual verifiable statistics), and a STATEMENT (made with nothing concrete to back it up.)

I mean, he HAS to be brain damaged... right?

The facts are clear. The reauthorizaion of the Violence Against Women Act passed the Senate Judiciary 10-8. All no votes came from middle-aged, white male, Republicans. Most white male Republicans in the Senate are now trying to stop a simple up or down vote. Those facts are indisputable, and what these Republicans are going to have answer to their constituents about.

Please try and keep up. You don't seem very bright.

The fact are clear, you are a liar. you dont mention the new items added to the bill which throws out the notion of a mere reauthorization.

You are not smart enough to battle me.

Now explain numb nuts..............How are new items a mere reauthorization?
 
Its just more of the GOP's war on women.

They're basically seeking to defund woman's shelters.

Horse shit...................

But lets say its true in the lying art of the left.


When do you ass wipes start to pay down the debt?

2050? 2070? When?
 
I think DickSuck is a masochist... Lord knows he's been beat half to death in THIS thread...

2000 would have been a good year to start. There was a surplus. The GOP went with tax cuts for the wealthy instead..

Good job boys!

Really? why is it that the left leaning female republicans are blocking this? What exactly is in the bill what have the democrats tacked onto it? I don't want to ever see you write that you are non partisan. You fucking hack.

If it wasn't for social security there wouldn't have been a surplus.:badgrin:
 
With the implementation of the VAWA, violence DID drop.

Uniform Crime Reports [United States]: Supplementary Homicide Reports, 1976-2004

Senator's Leahy and Crapo seek to expand the bill to addresses the needs of gay victims, immigrant victims, foreign brides, and Native women on tribal lands...because they are not being addressed.

A 2011 survey of NCAVP coalition members and affiliates found that nearly 85% of survey participants responded that they had worked with an LGBTQ client/survivor of domestic and intimate partner violence, dating violence, sexual assault or stalking who reported that they were turned away or denied services (such as shelter, crisis intervention, police or legal response) because of their sexual orientation and/or gender identity.
Regarding Resolution 1064 Calling Upon the United States Congress to reauthorize the
Violence Against Women Act (VAWA)


Native American women endure much higher levels of sexual and domestic violence than their non-Indian peers. A U.S. Department of Justice study on violence against women concluded that more than one in three American Indian and Alaska Native women will be raped, as compared to fewer than one in five of their nonIndian peers. This study concluded that Native women are 2.5 times more likely to be raped or sexually assaulted than American women in general
Honoring Native Women by Stopping the Violence

In fiscal years 2005 through 2009, U.S. Attorney's Office (USAOs) resolved about 9,000 of the approximately 10,000 Indian country matters referred to their offices by filing for prosecution, declining to prosecute, or administratively closing the matter. USAOs declined to prosecute 50 percent of the 9,000 matters. In addition: (1) About 77 percent of the matters received were categorized as violent crimes, and 24 percent as nonviolent crimes. (2) Declination rates tended to be higher for violent crimes, which were declined 52 percent of the time, than for nonviolent crimes, which were declined 40 percent of the time.
U.S. Department of Justice Declinations of Indian Country Criminal Matters
 
The VAWA was enacted in 1994, not 1976. The declines shown in your chart reflect the largest decreases between 1976 and 1994, proving that the VAWA has had VERY LITTLE effect on the DV crime rate.
 
Wouldn't violence against women be a local problem better handled at the local and state level? I know it's a strange concept for those who need the federal gubmint to wipe their asses for them, but you really should try it.

Many small communities don't have the resources for shelters for battered women or training of police and parole officers on how best to deal with it. Certainly congress believed it important enough to pass and reauthorize in 1994, 2000, and 2005.

Whatever.
 
Since VAWA was first passed into law in 1994, reporting of domestic violence has increased by 51 percent, the rate of non-fatal intimate partner violence against women has decreased by 61 percent, and the number of women killed by an intimate partner has decreased 26 percent. Furthermore, research estimates that VAWA saved nearly $14.8 billion dollars in net averted social costs in its first six years.
The VAWA

I certainly hope nobody here is arguing against it being reauthorized without the recent amendments that have the GOP currently blocking it are they? Some certainly seem to be.:cuckoo:

I thought this was a discussion about the recent expansions to the law that does have the GOP blocking a bill that has been reauthorized in a bipartisan fashion many, many times before.

So, what are the objections to the expansions?

If they put new wording and new funding and added to the bill, it is not a reauthorization as you claim. Only a stupid partisan hack with shit for brains would think so. Secondly, your stat of 53% is seemingly way off and by you hanging on to it proves you don't want real facts or real information, you just want to believe whatever you are told by a party. Sometime try thinking for yourself.

It turns out that Native American women are physically and sexually abused at much higher rates than others. More money was needed for services on tribal lands. This request, btw, was made by Republican Senator Murkowski. It seems that this is a serious problem in Alaska, where she stated that rapes are 2 1/2 times higher than the national average.

So Alaska needs to add state laws that elevate the penalties for crimes against women. We don't need a federal laws to handle a state issue.

Why does it need to be handled federally?

The significant change was that law enforcement asked them to increase the number of temporary visas, so they could prosecute scumbag abusers. Republicans are making tin foil claims that this would lead to fraud, without any real evidence. Yeah, let them stand on that lie and use that excuse with their constituents. Why not just send victims and witnesses home if their visa expires or were here undocumented. Better to let those who prey on women go free than someone stays in this country too long.

Do you really believe this lame excuse is going to work?

Wrong! There are already provisions for special visa's it is part of the law, it is the part that Republicans will renew without issue. You are either dishonest or very ignorant on the subject and are reacting out of emotion.
 
What's their excuse now? Do they not believe that domestic violence is a problem that needs to be dealt with? Is this just another part of their war against women? In the past, the VAWA was a law that had bipartisan support. Even with 59 singatories, including Republican Sens. Lisa Murkowski (AK), Olympia Snowe (ME) and Susan Collins (ME), Mark Kirk (IL), Scott Brown (MA) and Mike Crapo (ID), the GOP is blocking the vote for reauthorization.

They hate women. That's why.

Duh.
Go be stupid somewhere else.
