Open Mic: Live VAWA Debate:

Are women being used as political footballs Again?

BettyJean  is opening up the phone lines to women from all sides of the argument. What are they fighting about now? Let's debates both or all sides of this issue among ourselves come up with  what we want then tell those we elected to represent us to do the right thing about Violence against women. It is my understanding the intent of this bill is to protect women from violence PERIOD. Established in 1994 with bi-partisan support, it has been reaffirmed both in 2000 and again in 2005.  

Remember - my Louisa had her brains blown out by a man who was out without bail after beating her dying sister Denise in the head with a claw hammer! He should have been in jail for attempted murder of her sister not loose on the streets to come back and take her head too! VAWA should not be a political football - 4 women a day are murdered, every 9 seconds a women is battered! We are more than partisan votes - we are women who deserve JUSTICE- stop this WAR on WOMEN

Women are dying, beaten, raped while they play party politics with this football. This is not a game to the mothers of the fallen ! Please come to the show tonight and tell us what you think and how we can get them to stop the games and give us justice instead. They work for us- let's remind them of that- we are the Majority you know! Remember - or does this have to happen to you?
