Domestic Violence, Male Victims, and the Presumption of Guilt

Peter submitted this column from the Ottawa Citizen. In it, a couple takes the unusual step of asking the columnist (Dave Brown) to be their go-between for communication because government-forced restraining orders prevent them from communicating directly. They say they have been forcibly separated by "warriors in the war against violence towards women." I also found this report linked to from ifeminists.com about the ongoing silence on male victims of domestic violence.
