"I can’t quote the chapter and verse of some obscure California statute for dividing marital assets. What I can comment on is 30 years in LE in a major Midwest city and the Domestic Violence laws and how this impacts marriage in America.
The statutes are decidedly anti-male, and punishments are overwhelmingly directed against men.
Women are pathological liars and very adroit at gaming the system. I cannot think of a single case of a guy screwing over some unsuspecting woman, but I can recall case after case of women doing that to guys.
Even when caught in outright fraud, the States Attorneys usually WILL NOT approve false police report charges against women…as they don’t want to discourage the legitimate cases for coming forward.
Just last week a woman who got a court order-of-protection, invited her hapless dupe husband over the the house ( prohibited by the order) to “reconcile” and when he arrived, she promptly called the police and had him arrested for violating the order. You see, the child custody had yet to be agreed to so now that he has an “arrest” record, she is in a better position to get custody (and the child support windfall).
For years, street cops could use our bull-####-o-meters and not be made patsies for some malicious liar, but the way the statutes are currently written, ALL of my discretion is removed, the Order-of-Protection contains “shall arrest” provisions.
Like I said before, I am glad that you and your wife are happy…but just know that you could be living a similar nightmare any time she decides to pull the pin!"

Just an FYI, I am not a woman hater that comes from a dysfunctional family. My parents are still happily married after 30 years and I had a great childhood.

No, it's the people from broken dysfunctional homes who tend to make excuses for the system, because that's how their single mothers indoctrinated them.

Growing up in a traditional family with traditional roles for mother and father, husband and wife is what enables a person to see how insane the current system is.

The divorce rate is now over fifty percent. Only God can straighten our countries current path.

Given the horror stories that one hears around here, it has always surprised me that more ‘final justice’ doesn’t occur. Is it hushed up? Labelled as murder / ѕυιcιdє with any mention of impending divorce removed?

Maybe Buck would know the reality?

After 30 years in LE, all I can say is thank God for infidelity and intoxication, without them I’d be out of a job.
I’ve seen lots of relationship violence. When we classify a crime as a homicide or ѕυιcιdє we always docuмent possible motives, but I don’t know that that information is charted by outsiders for future reference. The classification though is HOMICIDE, or ѕυιcιdє.

What I’m about to write is going to look insensitive, BUT these are just MY observations.

Latino men are very prone to respond with murderous violence on cheating partners, but they are notorious players themselves…caution: girls contemplating a Latin lover. The aggrieved men routinely take out “her” new loverboy too.
Latin women love to call the police on mates they want to be rid of, and they will whine and make shit up until they hit the magic combo of alleged abuses to get what they want..they are very convincing liars and will happily see a mate arrested, but seldom actually follow through with the court cases. Latino women LOVE alpha/thug men, a tattoo and a rap sheet are Latino panty removers. I’ve seen an unusually high incidence of incest with Latinos , mostly siblings.
I cannot think of a Puerto Rican woman who is not divorced. On the divorce risk-o-meter, PR’s have got to be the worst choice a guy can make. They are very good at using the family law courts to shred men too..CAUTION!…But yes, when young they are intensely hot women.

Blacks are prone to severe beatings but usually don’t follow through with the courts. We consider them professional victims of domestic violence. The black community tolerates an unbelievable amount of infidelity and domestic abuse as seemingly normal.
The swath of destruction that is the black domestic scene is truly heart wrenching. I have profound respect for black men who try to make a go at traditional family life…their children have no idea how lucky they are.

Non-Filipino Asians are seldom involved in violence.

Hillbillies and white trash are the most violent and their women are the most depraved. When it is an off the charts case that would make Maury/Jerry and Phil blush, you can bet it’s some toothless white trash. One of my first cases was a woman who blew herself up making a pipe bomb to take out her husband.
I had an officer with a malfunctioning duty pistol…upon inspection “someone” placed a wrist watch battery in the pistol action blocking the trigger from working ( folks, this required disassembly of the gun, and minute placement of the battery…this was absolutely no “accident”…we called an evidence technician and took pictures), another had his gun’s chamber unloaded, and another had his gun superglued shut…what did they all have in common…honey was cheating on them! (think about that for a moment…cupcake is cheating on him and SHE is trying to get him killed !!!!…WOW!!!).
I’ve seen brake lines cut, beatings then house fires to cover up murders, staged burglaries to clean out the house, hired hit men, suspicious drug overdoses, there is nothing more dangerous than bored white people.
I admit, I’m actually surprised at the lack of violence considering the outrageous court decisions against men. “Samuel” has voiced the feelings of loads of men, who think about “it”, but do not act on their daydreams.

What Ive seen the most though is men wallowing in self pity and turning to the bottle/drugs after getting divorce ass-raped and dying too young with shattered lives all around.
Women tend to bounce back from screwing over men quite rapidly…BUT father time always does a nice hatchet job on them. I’ve been around long enough to see generations of little tarts and their demon spawn and their spawn grow up and believe me, father time always takes his revenge on trampy women.

Hillbillies and white trash are the most violent and their women are the most depraved.
