I had started to post this and FB did a SNAP... will try it again... this guy has written spew in the Chico News & Review in the last couple of weeks... I have responded... now before FB stops me again I just want to point out that I am posting his letter of today and my response which will hopefully be posted next edition, 10-23-14... if you are inclined (and I really hope some of you are) please consider also sending a response for that edition.. I will give you the link in a PM to do so: What about the misandrists? (his response to the executive director of this DV organization) Re “It’s time we discuss domestic violence” (Guest comment, by Anastacia Snyder, Oct. 9): Re: Boilerplate Special on domestic violence. Actually, accidental falls are the No. 1 cause of injuries to women in the home. The feminist movement has printed a lot of false statistics that have poisoned the data pool, and the fossilized feminists at our universities perpetuate these myths. And there’s a lot of misandrists (women who hate men) that suppress needed information, so this makes it difficult for everybody to assess this very serious matter properly. I do know that all five cases of domestic violence in my neighborhood over the years that I have been made aware of were women assaulting men. These women stabbed and slashed their boyfriends. Welcome to Chico, guys. Mike Peters Chico (he misspells/does not know that the actual word he wants to use is misanthropic) Re: What about the Misandrists, by Mike Peters, Oct.9, 2014 Once again Mr Peters has completely twisted a subject that he obviously knows very little about, just like the He Blames Women letter in the Oct. 2, 2014... I am a survivor and if not for the aid of Catalyst may not even be alive today... being a beneficiary of this extraordinary organization has compelled me to also be a volunteer advocate for DV victims, usually a friend calls me about a friend of theirs and I do what I can to make sure that woman understands that she is not alone, that there are surviving alternatives and to let her know that if her partner finds out that shes trying to leave, that is the most dangerous time of all for her so it takes a lot of courage and planning to do so... Catalyst helps to make this happen. You cannot argue with Ms. Snyders comments or statistics because you have no idea, which is incredibly apparent by your own comments. Of course I havent a clue if you are married, have a sister, nieces, or other women in your family... but in reading both of your previous letters, it would not surprise me if they would/could not feel safe discussing any abuse issues in your trust. Please stop with the negative misleading comments... I am not a misanthropic woman, though I have plenty of history to be so... youve never been in my shoes, probably never felt the fear of living in a toxic life threatening partnership/relationship... consider yourself blessed for that.
