The Daily Mail reported this awful story today where Beverley Jones from Swansea committed a terrible act of domestic abuse against her husband and walked away with a two year community order instead of going to prison.
Can you imagine the judge making the same decision of the genders were reversed - it would be two years in prison for the man else there would be a lynch mob led by Women's Aid, Refuge and Fawcett Society.
It shows that those that advocate (first article listed here and this one too) that women should not be in prison are seeing their 'argument' turned into a reality by the judiciary.
It is an unhappy coincidence that S4 Wales is running a documentary about male victims maybe the sexist judge should have seen this before passing judgement.

Disgusting, but is it any surprise given the spineless brainwashed mangina's and white knights we have in Law, politics and public wo let them get away with it or make excuses for them?

Who else is watching this vile Jimmy Saville business? These wretches come out of the woodwork after his dead and make these allegations 40 years after the fact with no actual evidence. Of course along comes the dreadful feminist Esther Rantzen who's little charity has much to profit from such nonsense also. This is yet another step into making it acceptable to the public that allegations no matter how unprovable and foul are believed without any real evidence as long as women are making them.
Is it not enough this media assisted witch hunting against men, driven with hyperbole and unprovable allegations is allowed normally, but even when they are dead?
This is one sick country.

Well here is the response from the Advertising standards people on the Advert that was spoken about previously.
I don't know how many of you bothered to submit your complaints? As expected however when the recipient in the advert is a male,or physical harm/domestic violence is done to the, nobody cares or thinks it will be offensive.
-----------------------------------
Thank you again for contacting the ASA. I’m sorry to learn that this ad has caused you concern.
Our Code says that ads should contain nothing that is likely to cause serious or widespread offence. The ASA bases its judgments on the content of the ad and the medium, audience, product type and prevailing standards in society.
Complaints about offence often require difficult judgements but we don’t intervene where advertising is simply criticised for being in poor taste. Apart from freedom of speech considerations, even well-intentioned and thoughtful people will have different and sometimes contradictory opinions about what constitutes ‘bad taste’ or should be prohibited. We can only act if the ad, in our judgement, offends against widely accepted moral, social or cultural standards.
We recently referred your complaint about this ad to the ASA Council, the final arbiter concerning decisions relating to breaches of the UK Codes of Advertising. An ad might be in breach of the Codes by, for example, being likely to cause serious or widespread offence, being materially misleading or risking or causing significant harm. The Council considered the ad and your complaint but concluded that there were no grounds for further action on this occasion.
While the Council understood that the theme of the ad might have been distasteful to some viewers, it did not consider it likely to be interpreted as condoning or making light of domestic violence or that it was likely to cause serious or widespread offence or undue distress.
I realise this may disappoint you, however we’ve passed on your complaint to the advertiser (without revealing your identity), so they’re aware of the concerns that have been raised.
Thank you again for contacting us with your concerns. Our website, www.asa.org.uk, contains information about the ASA and the work we do.
Kind regards,
David Humber

This complaint was submitted in regards an advert that appeared on TROM some weeks ago.
