 As it stands now, United States agencies are seriously out of touch with the extreme rise and seriousness of the domestic violence, stalking and sexual abuse cases in this country. Nor do they have a sure way to fix this epidemic. Resources used in times past are simply not effective today.

The Weaker Vessel Inc. is a free national online database of domestic violence abusers. It operates much like the Megan's Law database of sex offenders. We at the Weaker Vessel Inc. think that awareness is the first step to prevention. We don't feel it necessary to create brochure after brochure or flier after flier. That is simply not the answer. Because we can't live everyone's lives for them, we have provided them with the necessary, life saving information to foster greater awareness of their dating choices. Now everyone can go online to see if the person they're dating has been abusive in past relationships! Isn't this a well needed resource? We think so...

Our database is filled with offenders that have been convicted of domestic abuse.

Know this...
1) Until offenders know that they will be exposed,

2) Until offenders know that domestic abuse carries at least a 10-year prison term,

3) Until offenders know that they will be prosecuted without the victim's cooperation,
...domestic abuse will continue...

We encourage you to help us stop this epidemic that is taking our mothers, daughters, sisters and friends. Visit our site at: www.theweakervessel.org.

We are asking for your comments and questions. We also need your help, any donations of time, treasures and/or talent would be greatly appreciated. We will not stop until we have domestic violence records from every county in every state in our database.

We are serious, it's time the country follow our lead!!
