Have you, or a person you know, ever been falsely accused of domestic violence? Targeted with a restraining order? Put in jail? Each year more than 1 million Americans are hit with a false or trivial accusation of partner abuse. It’s now reached the point that domestic violence laws represent the largest roll-back in Americans’ civil rights since the Jim Crow era! Our nation’s domestic violence laws have gone too far, harming innocent citizens and diverting scarce resources away from the true victims… (Unfortunately, this article fails to list the loss of the RKBA as a major consequence of these arrests and restraining orders. Some recent studies suggest that a significant proportion of domestic-violence situations are two-sided, with many of the incidents being initiated by wives against their presumptively guilty husbands.)
