Commentary: domestic violence: out of the frying pan ...(Massachusetts)
Byline: David Yas
Joseph Ureneck really wants me to write that wives physically abuse their husbands just as often as husbands physically abuse their wives.
He wants me to write that the vast majority of women are lying when they claim that they have been beaten by their husbands.
And he wants me to write that the law is so flawed in Massachusetts that men accused of domestic violence lose everything important in their lives without a real chance to defend themselves.
I can't write that. I won't. But Ureneck has my attention.
His group and others like it are plotting to defeat judicial nominees whose philosophies don't comport with their own.
Spurned by the courts and angered by a society that has been sensitive to battered women, fatherhood rights groups have landed on our turf, the judicial system.
