Seriously?

I have a buddy whose nutso ex had her boyfriend beat her up and then filed charges blaming him. After a weekend in jail, he was finally released when he proved - via GPS tracking and security footage from a gas station - that he wasn’t even in the STATE at the time.

Did she get charged with anything? Nope. Even when she did it again. And then AGAIN. (The third time, my friend didn’t have to spend a weekend in jail, and the nutjob was told that she might be charged if she make one more false report.)

That’s the FAR more common scenario.

What about the guys who beat up their wives and then call the police on her saying they need protection

the police come running to arrest her even though shes the one with all the bruises...

Yup.

A woman can destroy a man by crying “rape.” Even if he wasn’t in the same state at the time, it’s still painful, expensive, and life wrecking to go through.

PS Not casting aspersions on real rape victims, who can have a very tough time getting justice. Helped two friends through that nightmare, too.

That happens, but the opposite is far more common...

Give us some actual statistics to back up your "Bizaro World" claim. I'm raising the BS flag.

Your attitude is partly why so few women report rapes or abuse from their husbands..

Besides, most European countries require "home owners" to apply for permission if they want to cut down a tree on their own "property." Imagine how much trouble they would be in if they were to dig an unauthorized grave!

Except that once you've decided criminals are the ones that need protecting, you've eliminated the disincentive for people to listen to what you want. "Yeah, I buried this guy in my back yard. But you know what that makes me?....A criminal!! -- now you have to do what I say!"

You’ve got no evidence to back up your claims; otherwise you wouldn’t play the Alinsky tactics.

I’ve actually dealt with genuine instances of spousal abuse where a man assaulted the woman; I’ve also seen women lie through their teeth and claim they’ve been abused in order to get revenge over a real or imagined offense. Your bizarre claims are a slap in the face to actual victims and you should be ashamed of yourself.

In spite of all the insanity I’ve seen in the world so far, it still baffles me how these people can find the rationality for such things. How does one justify this to himself, much less to other people?
