That other violence | The Spectator Australia

There was an enormous outpouring of emotion last week when thousands of women and men marched the March 4 Justice in the State capitals protesting violence against women. The march was an organised response to the alleged rape of a young woman in the Ministerial Wing of Parliament House.

It must have been noticed that the March 4 Justice is in addition to the various Women’s marches against domestic violence that took place in 2016 and 2017 in opposition to DonaldTrump’s presidency. Those marches were accompanied by millions of dollars worth of commonwealth and state government advertisements which, it must be said, tend to characterise domestic violence as a consumer problem rather than the moral problem it really is.
