Hawaii County residents and officials took to the streets this weekend to commemorate Domestic Violence Awareness Month.
On Friday, the Family Violence Interagency Committee organized a Family Peace Walk and Vigil in Hilo, remembering those who have lost their lives due to domestic violence, and uniting those affected by tragedy.
Participants marched from the Bayfront Parking Lot – past the location where mother of four, Catherine Dingle, was allegedly stabbed to death by her husband just a few months ago – to the Mooheau Park Bandstand where a vigil was held. Candles of Remembrance were lit in memory of the lives that have been lost.
A similar walk was held in Kona at the same time.
The next day, Hawaii Island’s kane took part in the local YWCA’s Walk A Mile in Her Shoes event.
Donning the high heels heels and leading the march were Mayor Billy Kenoi, Police Chief Harry Kubojiri, Fire Chief Darryl Oliveira and Prosecuting Attorney Jay Kimura.
The event was held in conjunction with International Men’s March to Stop Rape, Sexual Assault and Gender Violence.

V.P. Biden recently called violence against women, “the very worst abuse.” The very worst abuse is valuing one life less than another for having been born the wrong sex. Under Biden’s Violence Against Women Act the wrong sex is men. Shelter and services are virtually non-existent for male victims of domestic violence so those options out of a bad relationship, that are routinely available to women, are very often not available to men. Men wind up gender profiled and often falsely accused by the taxpayer funded, d.v. industry, because of gender feminist ideology controlling the d.v. industry. Men are often battered by domestic violence, and then battered again by the taxpayer funded, domestic violence industry. Credible research overwhelmingly shows that the ratio of d.v. is at least 50/50 between women & men. http://tinyurl.com/3sakk According to one study by researchers who work at the CDC, in 70% of domestic violence incidents, where the domestic violence is not mutual, it’s women who initiate the domestic violence. http://tinyurl.com/yzm9xhe The taxpayer funded domestic violence industry has largely mischaracterized the true nature of d.v. from the beginning and continues to mislead the public. D.V. law follows a gender feminist agenda/ideology over facts in evidence and does great harm to many innocent men (and also many battering women who need help) as shown in “Los Misandry” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAmOxvudpF8
