The existing divorce system needs a radical overhaul. It is bringing too many families to this end of events.

The existing divorce system didn't cause the police chief to abuse, long-term, and then shoot his wife in front of their children. The existing divorce system didn't create the long-standing imbalance in the chief's mind and life that resulted in this horrendous train of events.

It was when she took action to get free from his oppression and threats to her life that he shot her.

Nicole Simpson comes to mind.

Some would have you believe that people never were driven to murder when love went bad, until divorce courts.

There are some personalities who cannot tolerate loss of control. Those kinds of people will go mad when anyone fails to respect them, it doesn't take a court system to do that.

Lets talk about Nicole Simpson. She was only too glad to break up the first marriage of O.J. Simpson. She was only too glad to have landed an extremely wealthy football icon. Women who do that are extremely manipulative and used to being in control. But then she got the surprise because she couldn't control O.J.

Sure, he killed her. And he should be in jail. But don't assume that Nicole was an angel. She just got a little bit more than she bargained for in O.J.
