The truth
about domestic violence statistics
|
|
A survey by Bruce Heady and Dorothy Scott of Melbourne University
and David De Vaus of La Trobe University exposes the feminist lie that
only women are victims of domestic violence.
The survey of 1643 persons found that men are assaulted more
frequently than women in domestic situations, as the tables below
reveal.

| May 2006 survey by
Western Australian Police: 58 women murdered their partners |
|
A domestic homicide register compiled
by the Western Australian police force's Major Crime Division and released in
May 2006 exposes the lies
and propaganda of the Violence Against Women campaign. This report
details all domestic homicides in WA for the past ten years. The report reveals
that of the 221 homicides resulting from domestic violence, 58 murders were
committed by females, including wives, mothers and daughters.
The worst domestic killing detailed in the report
was committed in July 1999 by Barbara Wyrzkowski who gassed to death her five
children - Mark 8, twins Luke and Sarah, 5, Jessie, 4 and Jade,1. It remains
Australia's largest domestic child killing.
