[QUOTE=yawmwen;35962872]Tribal citizens are subject to different laws 90% of the time. I think saying that Native American women are covered is basically saying that this law supercedes Tribal Law. It might have nothing to do with race, and more to do with Tribal Politics.[/QUOTE]
I think it's more about prosecuting non-tribal abusers
[QUOTE=Lambeth;35962875]the best example of a matriarchal society that I can think of would be the [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iroquois]Iroquois[/url][/QUOTE] "Beginning in 1609, the League engaged in the Beaver Wars with the French and their Iroquoian-speaking Huron allies. They also put great pressure on the Algonquian peoples of the Atlantic coast and the boreal Canadian Shield region, and not infrequently fought the English colonies as well. During the 17th century, they were said to have exterminated the Neutral Nation.[24][25] and Erie Tribe to the west. The wars were a way to control the lucrative fur trade,[citation needed][26] although additional reasons are often given for these wars." The Iroquois were very willing to fight alongside the French. And I mean even if you make the claim that there were nonviolent before European settlement of the Americas, I could rebuke that with the fact that there were many peaceful societies in the Americas before European settlement.
Beaver Wars sounds like a lesbian porn flick
Gay women?
I wouldn't ask if they hadn't listed gay and lesbian as seperate 'issues'.
anywho I'm not really trying to say that there would be no violence whatsoever if we lived in a matriarchal society. I just think dudes are generally more aggressive? I don't know, maybe there's a never discovered aggro gland in the dick.

perhaps I'm completely misguided and it's entirely the fault of the giant military industrial complex that's tainted my view of men forever
or something
[quote]"There's nothing under federal law that currently recognizes same-sex couples[/quote]
But this law isn't about same-sex couples, it's about women. Period.
This just disgusts me x.x So glad I don't live in the states.
[QUOTE=Mr. Someguy;35962509]Why not just a "Domestic Violence Prevention Act" that protects everyone?[/QUOTE]
Not everyone is free to have the same rights in our free country apparently.

They have the freedom to deny you your freedom.
If only votes indicated fucking competency.
Ah, how fun it would be if I had a gay want which could make anyone I wished for gay.
Like Rick Santorum for instance. How gold would that be? Or the woman in the OP. Michelle Bachmann and her husband would too be good targets.
Dó you mean gay or just homosexual? I find gay People to be very intrusive and loud. They tend to wabt to impose themselves on you, as much as the haters on them. No nettet than anti- gay movements

[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;35962428]Technically, she's right. You can't name same sex domestic abuse in there until same sex couples are recognized.
But it's a dumb technicality, nothing more.[/QUOTE]
Dumb and rather useful for them apparently.

Thats mostly for those obnoxious morons who feel like they are opressed.
Only found 1 of those once, who had a crush on a friend of mine apparently... I have no idea what was his real deal since he was screwed up in the head but oh well...

That sounds like it should be the motto of the Republican Party.
There needs to be an online database or collection of why Republicans should never be voted for under any conditions

There is, it's called Fox News.
The Violence Against Women Act shouldn't cover Republican Congresswomen.
Seriously though, fuck social conservatives.
And Reaganomics doesn't even fucking work, so you don't really have [I]any[/I] reason to vote Republican.
[QUOTE=Bomimo;35962659]Some people should never be allowed to live beyond 21. That would be republicans...[/QUOTE]
Because all Republicans are bad forever and Democrats have never done anything wrong.
