New Hampshire Republicans Propose Bills That Prevent Police From Protecting Domestic Abuse Victims →
House Bill 1581 would turn the clock back 40 years to an age when a police officer could not make an arrest in a domestic violence case without first getting a warrant unless he or she actually witnessed the crime. That’s an exceedingly dangerous change.
…
The other bill Republicans have proposed, HB 1608, limits judges’ ability to order the arrest of someone who has violated a domestic violence restraining order by contacting or abusing the person named in the order. It would also prevent judges from ordering defendants to surrender their weapons or block them from buying guns.
Some more fuckedupness from the party of “family values”. You know, the values where it’s ok to beat your family and possibly shoot them because RARRRRR SECOND AMENDMENT.
