Domestic violence, also known as domestic abuse, spousal abuse, child abuse or intimate partner violence (IPV), can be broadly defined as a pattern of abusive behaviors by one or both partners in an intimate relationship such as marriage, dating, family, friends or cohabitation. Domestic violence has many forms including physical aggression (hitting, kicking, biting, shoving, restraining, slapping, throwing objects), or threats thereof; sexual abuse; emotional abuse; controlling or domineering; intimidation; stalking; passive/covert abuse (e.g., neglect); and economic deprivation. Domestic violence may or may not constitute a crime, depending on local statutes, severity and duration of specific acts, and other variables. Alcohol consumption and mental illness can be co-morbid with abuse, and present additional challenges when present alongside patterns of abuse.

Awareness, perception and documentation of domestic violence differs from country to country, and from era to era. Estimates are that only about a third of cases of domestic violence are actually reported in the United States and the United Kingdom. According to the Centers for Disease Control, domestic violence is a serious, preventable public health problem affecting more than 32 million Americans, or over 10% of the U.S. population.

A. Well him being deported is likely to happen, he committed a crime and is here illegally. Now on the domestic violence, girl you do not want to be with some one like that, my boys father used to be very abusive with me. I luckily was smart enough to leave, but his wife now, well lets just say men with those types of issues, they don't always change. They may stop it for a while or even years but they will always hit unless they get professional help! He almost killed her and her daughter! Very scary to have to live with the thought of "Is it ever going to happen to me" Just be careful. And for him, he has to have a really good reason and lawyer to keep him here.

Asked by Maddix's Mommy - Tue Feb 10 04:11:57 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. He can't. Since September 30, 1996, any person convicted of misdemeanor domestic violence, regardless of when the conviction occurred, cannot possess a firearm. This is the effective date for an Amendment Congress passed to the Federal Gun Control Act of 1968, making it a felony for a person with a state misdemeanor conviction for domestic violence to possess a firearm. The statute is 18 U.S.C. 922 (g) (9). The possible penalty is up to 10 years in state prison. Prior to the amendment the ban only applied to those with a felony conviction or those which involved contempt of an order of protection.
