Quebec: the scandal of grossly massaged statistics on domestic violence - ham - 01-12-2010 http://www.lapresrupture.qc.ca/Le%20scandale%20des%20fausses%20statistiques.htm Sensational reports jam-packed with frightening statistics about domestic violence on women, issued in Quebec by several public sources are another con-job to please special interest, activist groups. Quote:En janvier 1980, le Conseil consultatif canadien de la situation de la femme publiait un rapport intitulé « La femme battue au Canada: un cercle vicieux ». Dans ce rapport, Linda MacLeod et Andrée Cadieux improvisent un calcul de la prévalence annuelle de la violence conjugale au moyen d'une série d'extrapolations dont la validité est plus que douteuse. Militant experts indulge in a meta-analysis of various reports and turn a figure of 40-50.000 women-victims found in some research into 400-500.000 by extrapolating data and equally turning the 2,5% of an old USA study into a 10% they claim represented the Canadian case. In order to get their numbers right, 'experts' even applied their suppositions, extrapolations and alchemy to ALL women, who obviously include children, nuns, bachelorettes and other women not married, not living with male partners etc. Several years later, the same militant 'expert' admitted her work consisted in nothing more than in "admitting a supposition" and later admitted her goal was to trigger social change according to feminist wishes. Quote:eu de temps après la sortie de ce chiffre, on m’a offert un emploi pour développer une politique fédérale sur les victimes d’actes criminels, politique qui mettait l’emphase sur l’agression de la femme par son conjoint. Le résultat de ce travail fut que le gouvernement fédéral commença à financer des recherches et des projets-pilotes concernant les femmes agressées par leur conjoint. Le solliciteur général fédéral, Robert Caplan, en réponse à une recommandation émanant du rapport que j’avais rédigé pour le Conseil consultatif, envoya une lettre à tous les chefs de police du pays les exhortant d’adopter des politiques d’inculpation obligatoire ». Short after the bogus report appeared, the bold feminist expert was offered a federal job to help big brother with social alchemy. Police authorities were urged to consider men guilty. RE: Quebec: the scandal of grossly massaged statistics on domestic violence - Winston Smith - 01-12-2010 Leftist academics using bogus "extrapolation" to support their warped social agenda? Unfortunately, it happens every day any more. If you can't win without cheating isn't that the same as admitting your position is meritless? RE: Quebec: the scandal of grossly massaged statistics on domestic violence - Dennis Ruhl - 01-13-2010 Quebec? Isn't that where a learned judge said that rape was a cultural norm for Haitian men and declined to send two guys to jail for boys being boys. http://www.fact.on.ca/newpaper/gm99031d.htm Quote:3. Judge Monique Dubreuil angered the Haitian community in Montreal in 1998 when she sentenced two men, whom she said were "immature" and not a threat to society, to an 18-month suspended sentence for sexual assault. She explained her leniency by saying that the victim was not a juvenile and that the men, who were of Haitian origin, came from a culture where rape is accepted. "The absence of regret of the two accused seems to be related more to the cultural context, particularly with regard to relations with women than a veritable problem of a sexual nature," she said in her ruling. RE: Quebec: the scandal of grossly massaged statistics on domestic violence - ham - 01-13-2010 Quote:7. Martha and Joseph Sorger, both Holocaust survivors living in Toronto, sued the Bank of Nova Scotia, one of its branch managers and a lawyer acting for the bank for failing to perform their fiduciary duties. Halfway through the 1996 trial, the lawyer for the plaintiffs tried to obtain a mistrial because Mr. Justice Joseph Potts of the Ontario Court's General Division frequently interrupted testimony, gave the impression that he had made up his mind before hearing testimony, was rude and anti-Semitic. At one point, he allegedly interrupted Mrs. Sorger's evidence by saying: "Jesus Christ, it's like pulling hen's teeth." When the Sorgers' lawyer asked for an adjournment so they could observe the High Holidays, Judge Potts replied: "You're one of those, too?" Remnants of the old world... Quote:12. Quebec Judge Raymonde Verreault cited "extenuating circumstances" when she handed down a 23-month sentence in 1994 to a man who had repeatedly sodomized his stepdaughter from the time she was 9 until 11. The victim did not have any "permanent scars" from the sexual assaults, according to Judge Verreault, because the attacker had respected the values of her Muslim faith and had "spared her virginity" by not engaging in vaginal intercourse. Besides, the girl may have encouraged the accused because she "harboured hatred" against her mother. Mingling old & new. Quote:In 1996, Mr. Justice Allyre Sirois of the Saskatchewan Court of Queen's Bench observed during a bail hearing for a man who beat his former girlfriend unconscious after she asked him to turn down the television set that "it takes two to tango." Honestly, don't tell me that man had that far behaved like Francis of Assisi...why do women love thugs? Oh well... |
