Under VAWA, should a woman simply request a restraining order, she may be granted said order with only a civil burden of proof (preponderance of evidence) and have what are almost criminal rights restrictions placed upon a man without having to prove anything. Of these a man's 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 5th and 14th amendment are up for legal violation upon the very request. In addition, should the filer wish, a complaint can be lodged privately with the police at any time merely accusing the restrained of calling or speaking to, even if it never happened, for which he will be arrested and tried as a criminal.

So I ask, is this fair, constitutional or helpful? Its been around for over a decade and domestic violence still occurs, now as much as ever.
