PA State Rep Holds Up "Domestic Violence Awareness Month" Resolution
Western Pennsylvania Republican House member Darryl Metcalfe (R- Cranberry Township) stymied fellow politicians and advocates around the state when he balked at a “Domestic Violence Awareness Month” resolution because of a perceived underlying “homosexual agenda.”
The measure, introduced as H.R. 105 to acknowledge October as Domestic Violence Awareness Month, is a frequent non-controversial practice. Metcalfe’s opposition stems from language that identified men as victims of domestic violence, without noting the gender of said perpetrators.

I had tried to start a thread on this back on Sept. 19. http://www.topix.net/forum/news/gay/TCVQH9FJ6...
It is interesting to note that Siptroth has introduced this bill annually for the past few years and Metcalfe has voted for it until this year. Here's a link to one of the original local articles http://www.poconorecord.com/apps/pbcs.dll/art... |

How about changing the terminology to "PEOPLE should not be subjected to domestic violence"?

This isn't the only issue where Metcalfe is being insulting and ridiculous. He recently responded to a group of Iraq and Afghanistan veterans who are touring the US for global warming awareness by calling them "traitors" and compared them to Benedict Arnold. http://thinkprogress.org/2009/10/20/climate-t... Can't wait for the next election to get this guy out of office. What a disgrace!! |
