It’s a national disgrace, and it’s time we do something about it!...There is no doubt it is getting worse. We are seeing data that high-risk family violence filed in our courts was thought to be around 38%, but it’s more like 60%...” The First Round Table of The Federal Circuit & Family Court of Australia

(D.I Commentary – The siloing of violence from alcohol and other drug use and the often behavioural atrocities these, if not facilitate, then intensify is not merely an act of cognitive dissonance; rather it appears almost protective of the vociferous minority of drug use promoting activists agenda to liberalise greater substance use in our culture.  The correlation between greater and greater ‘permission’ models for substance use and the consequentially growing demand these models precipitates, is only adding to this crisis of family violence and neglect.

  • Why aren’t courts and judiciary exposing this connection more?
  • Why are lawmakers seemingly silent on this correlation and causation?
  • Why don’t the media ask the hard questions on this?
