Domestic Violence Quotes

Zenovia B.
Domestic violence and emotional abuse are behaviors used by one person in a relationship to control the other. Anyone can be a victim.

"Domestic violence does not only happen to adults. Forty percent of girls age 14 to 17 report knowing someone their age who has been hit or beaten by a boyfriend, and approximately one in five female high school students reports being physically and/or sexually abused by a dating partner." Dianne Feinstein

"God is a God of love. Nowhere does it say I'm supposed to get beat up or my kids should get beat up." Etterlene Debarge - author "The Other Side Of Pain."

"Domestic violence causes far more pain than the visible marks of bruises and scars. It is devastating to be abused by someone that you love and thinks loves you in return." It is estimated that approximately 3 million incidents of domestic violence are reported each year in the United States." Dianne Feinstein

"It is suggested that in (domestic violence) at least the presence or absence of a firearm, or of any other type of weapon, is of far less importance to the outcome than the passion generated in the attacker. The man who has lost control will cause serious injuries in many cases, quite irrespective of the weapon he uses and regardless of the certainty of detections and punishment." Colin Greenwood

"Domestic violence is a criminal matter and needs to stay in a criminal court. Too often judges see charges of domestic violence as a ploy to get custody and send the case to family court." Catherine Campbell quotes
