The United Nations Resolution “48/104. Declaration on the Elimination of Violence against Women” (20 December 1983) includes the following statement:

“States should condemn violence against women and should not invoke any custom, tradition or religious consideration to avoid their obligations with respect to its elimination. States should pursue by all appropriate means and without delay a policy of eliminating violence against women…”

We ask that the General Assembly of the United Nations create a specific, enforceable statute to ensure that:
1) economic and political sanctions are levied against:
a. States that do not have laws that restrict violence against women
b. States that measurably neglect to enforce laws that restrict violence against women and
c. States that explicitly, implicitly or tacitly shield from prosecution those perpetrators of violence against women.

and that

2) the General Assembly resolve to withhold non-humanitarian, discretionary assistance from:
a. States that do not have laws that restrict violence against women
b. States that measurably neglect to enforce laws that restrict violence against women and
c. States that explicitly, implicitly or tacitly shield from prosecution those perpetrators of violence against women.

I support these suggestions. PLEASE - add to your petition or signature to make it IMPOSSIBLE for a DV violator to EVER have their record expunged of these hate crimes- not even for ONE offense. Add-Domestic Violence Conviction - ONCE - no threechances - ONE CHANCE - and that person permanently looses their right to custody over any childrenthey may have. DV history - NO CUSTODY PERIOD! THE FIRST DV offense, mandatory and public caning, (caning is popular and effective deterrant in other countries)and 6 months in jail, lifetime randomdrug testing - as requested by victim. Many laws are inplace, but not enforced. Hold District Attorneysaccountable - not for how LOW the numbers of DVcases they have in their districts, but for the higher number of CONVICTIONS they are giving and for the stricter sentences - like felony charges and others here.Public officials will continue to do NOTHINGunless THEIR jobs are on the line. Make officialsaccountable. Mandatory public listings of whereDomestic Violence offenders live FOR LIFE. Domestic Violence needs to include emotionalabuse, since that is even harder for children toheal from. Domestic Violence Offender - NO custody of children - not EVER!
