Frightening....

No wonder I'm terrified to let a woman into my life if this is an example of the lunacy that can occur when a lie can be submitted without the onus of proof being required.

How does a bloke compete when the family court system is set up in such a way that he is immediately guilty regardless of the evidence?

Don't believe me?
Have a woman go into a cop shop and get a restraining order on something she makes up and see how easy it is.
Have a bloke go into a cop shop seeking one against a woman and they usually laugh in his face.

That is abomination, Jai.

Mind you, down here I know a woman who has been trying to get her ex slapped with an AVO and/or assault charges for a couple of years now.

I went with her to the cop shop the say after she was manhandled off to the hospital for a psych eval by ex and the neighbours. She did have bruises on her arms, but as the cops said when I was there: there was no real evidence apart from hearsay.

She has been bleating ever since, and while I have a major hatred of violence, I'm sorry to say that after hearing the way she would talk to ex on the phone, I'd smack her in the mouth if she spoke like that to me.

As it stands, he's taken her to court several times over custody issues, her ruggie is a few months younger than Magilla and spends 10 hours a day in daycare then alternates weekends with parents. Mum has no friends, no family an no support (she's east-european, been her 4-5 years) and ex has got another gf.

As ever, it's the kids who pay.

The few times I ever saw the ex with the rugrat, it was obvious he loved her to bits, and I used to have talks with the woman and try to explain that she had no right to keep the child and father apart.

Two short planks award there.

Damn straight it's an abomination.

How many blokes (the ones who DON'T manhandle women or beat them) have committed suicide thanks to the lies told by the female and the injustices that followed? There can never be any stats on this one.

Don't get me wrong though - it is not always the woman's fault when there are problems in a relationship. I wouldn't even dare to suggest whether it is a most-of-the-time or a least-of-the-time thing. I've seen it from both sides with one brother being a total bludger at home (I don't know his wife lasted 10 years with him) and another brother having the right buttons pushed and pushing him over the edge.

The latter's then-wife would wind him up until he blew his lid. He would then leave and drink stupid amounts of alcohol to forget about her (which probably contributed to the cancer that killed him).
She'd try to stab him with carving knives; she'd flog the shit out of the kids (I've seen one thrown across a room into the wall a couple of times. I was too young to do anything about it then); she's even condoned the rape and carnal activities on her (then) youngest daughter by her current boyfriend (who shot the head off her puppy as it stood beside her as a warning to her to do as she was told). The police would routinely turn up to my brother's door to act out some bogus complaint that the ex-wife had made even though she had no less than 3 outstanding arrest warrants against her.

My problem is that I'm not looking for someone to use and abuse but there are plenty out there who are all too happy to do it to me.

And unjustly had all of his worldly possessions stolen.

Not to mention any remote possibility of having a job or some kind of life, if he lives long enough to get out of prison.

Jai - I think you will find a good lady one day. But then I suppose this chap thought he had too.

Caz said...

Jai - how many? Who knows. But my brother was one in the statistics for 1997.

Jai Normosone said...

Worldly possessions? Nah - eldest brother was generous to a fault. Problem was that he was generous with other people's stuff as well. He figured that if he would give what little he had to anyone who needed it then everyone else was willing to do it as well. I had more than 1 fight with him over this.

The boyfriend? Get out of prison? He won't even get INTO prison thanks to the utter ineptitude of Famaily Services in Ipswich. These dickheads call before visiting. My neice said that he burnt all the video and photographs he had of her before they got there.

Nobody thought that my eldest brother had found a good one.

I know where there is a good one - no spark though :/

Jai - crossed wires! I was commenting on the guy in the article, the one STILL stuck in prison after 20 years. [:-)]

What an unbelievable story. Horrendous. Makes you just want to break in and yank the guy out of prison. Makes you want to give his ex-wife & the boyfriend a decent smack across their smug faces. Wouldn't you hope that she would have come forward, oh, at least a decade ago, and admit her wrongs so that the guy could be released? How the hell does she live with herself?

There HAS to be more than one good one for you Jai, I hope. Pity there's no spark, but I guess you've looked around each nook & cranny to make sure the spark isn't hiding, or a slow burn.

Jai Normosone said...

Oh yeah... :)

It does - it really does want you to commit serious bodily harm on those who keep him in there.

The woman come forward? You have got to be kidding? Nobody comes forawrd to admit anything now. My eldest nephew had a $3,000 tax return stolen from him by Social Security a few years ago to be given to the mother of a kid that's not even his (she got the paternity test to prove it - turns out it belonged to the bloke she banged the night before). Even though Social Security have seen the results of the test, they refused to do anything to get the money back.

Well... I was told that there was no spark. I can only go on what I'm told - I can't say what is best for her and try to force the issue as she has got a brain and can think for herself (and you don't find that very often). Maybe the spark will ignite and maybe it won't - not for me to decide.
It's definitely hiding but there is nothing I can do until it's ready to ignite. Patience is a virtue :)
