Why is a DUI associated with Violence to Women?

[BradLuvsMaria 0]

My Fiance and I are getting close to submitting our I-129F Yes the latest rendition! I am 41 and at a younger age I made bad decisions when it came to drinking and driving home. Even though this was years ago, of course I told my Fiance about my past mistakes. That's what people in love do. I knew of IMBRA and the criminal background checks would be required, but I was SHOCKED to see that the Gov. put an extra Billet mark and also asked if you had any convictions for drugs/alcohol 3 times. Here is the original clip from VTWA:

The Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) and Department of Justice Reauthorization Act of 2005, of which IMBRA is a part, are designed to continue Congress’s efforts to prevent domestic violence and spousal abuse. Immigrants who have been victims of domestic violence have long benefited from VAWA immigration provisions, which allow abused spouses and children to self-petition for lawful immigration status. Under IMBRA, Congress has further extended those protections by regulating more closely the international marriage broker market and by requiring disclosure of violent criminal history, such as domestic abuse, rape, or murder, of which a fiancé(e) may be unaware.

Sorry but I missed the part of how a night of drinking and bad judgment now turns into the preposition that I am violent, have abused Women, or worse I have killed? Even if you have never made this bad judgment, why wouldn't it be OK for the Gov to include a person convicted of Bank Robery? Burglary? Shoplifting? Deffinetly in each of these mentioned cases, there is a high probability of violence NOT to mention these can all be classified as FELONIES!!!

As I said, My girl knows everything as that is the proper way to start a life together. Yes I have already researched these past charges and have managed to get Certified Copies of the Court Sentence and also Police reports. NOTE: Police Departments DO NOT CERTIFY POLICE REPORTS!!! Even though that is what IMBRA is clearly asking for on the I-129F.

I feel the pain of the people with NO record at all having to be apart from the one that keeps their smile going everyday. I will do anything I have to and have started. I don't want to "Raise my name as a problem Person with USCIS". It is all KISS A&@ till my girl is where she wants to be. After that, look out congress people!!!! I promise to join the crusade against this cruel but well intended law!!! It just needed more thought!!!

The interesting thing about IMRA is that it does not disqualify you as a petitioner. It just makes sure the berneficiary knows that one has killed his whole family with an axe.

The offenses were years ago in far away counties of the state I live in. Most require you to be in person to sign for the certified papers. Mole hill? Why is it even a factor towards the originating facts behind this law? That why it is my Mountain. I have already climbed it but why?

Unless you have been convicted three times...doesnt mean a thing. Sign for what??

You are only required to report them....no where did I ever read that you are required to furnish anything.

I would guess that people whos abuse alcohol and drugs are the same that abuse women.

The theory is that if you have an alchohol/drug offense, you likely have abused alchohol/drugs. There is a well-documented correlation between domestic violence and alchohol and drug abuse.

There's also a correlation between domestic violence and low IQ. Should we start giving people IQ tests?

IMBRA2005- What an Ignorant individual you are. I feel sorry for the small world you live in that you can classify all persons via a subject. You have totally missed the mention of herendous felonies not counted towards this post. Thank God we have upstanding Christians like you to tell the rest of the world the statistics on what is correlated to abuse. Your dirty little secrets are safe but yet again, who knows them? I am taking and have still taken FULL responsibilities for my actions. How dare you classify me as an abuser!!! You could be a closet abuser for all anyone on this post knows!!! Easy to point fingers, let's let our loved ones decide if we should be executed for DUI!

Small Worlds for small minds! You spit out convictions of how all people that have have the unfortinate convictions for a DUI to be VIOLENT. That is Bizarre Not knowing what the individual situation was. Does a sober life of 10 years count for anything ot should people just be branded for the rest of their lives? Conclusion? It was you conviction that all DUI be processed as Violent people that makes no sence. I guess some crimes can never be repaid to society!

Am I missing something here? Where in my post did I classify you as an abuser? I answered your question as to why IMBRA asks about alchohol/drug abuse. Given your demonstration, perhaps the correlation is well-founded.
