“Feminism destroyed marriage and the family, as many conservatives predicted.”
Bingo and ring the bell! Reality is, our country has a legal system that swings like a giant pendulum. Before the 1960’s women were taken advantage of. Now, the pendulum has swung the other way. When local government profits from domestic abuse cases through programs and fines, it becomes that much harder to restore equellibrium. Our whole legal system stinks right now. The rich get off repeatedly and evereone else gets to be judged and fleeced for dollars. Local judges can make their own set of rules, also known as activist judges. Bin Laden can’t be shot in the head in 1997 by special forces because the Clinton Justice Department felt it didn’t have the right ‘legal’ precedence to do so.
The real threat to our way of life is that the United States has become so legalistic instead of moralistic that we can’t get anything done. We’re becoming easy pickings for our enemies while we endlessly debate if it is legal or not.
*sigh* yeah.
