2 faced? Court & law enforcement policies for Marrieds only?

Question

Does anyone else find this to be very 2 faced...that the LAW & Judicial system excersise all power -
to authorize a legal marriage,
define it between 1 man & 1 woman,
Eliminate certain legal INDIVIDUAL rights if you are married, & then provide only one avenue for dispute resolution- a legal divorce?

And At the SAME TIME, they are blind to inter-family activities which are CRIMINAL unless they occur in the home & not against strangers? Don't we make it 50X Easier for our lovers to steal our ID, our $$, or Credit cards since the police minimize it as a "Domestic Dispute"? Only physical assualt w/ REAL hard evidence is investigated. If law wants to dictate over marriage then where are they when your SPOUSE is implicating YOU in a crime? You are legally not a person- you are a MARRIED person with special rules for your status. Is this not 2 faced?

**We have LAWS in place to protect us from product scams (consumer protection), Employment discrimination, Fair housing...but when you marry & "become one" HE has absolute PRIVACY for actions that HARM you but YOU can't sue him legally because in a lawsuit you are one again. see? We are two for " privacy" but one for lawsuits.

That is the frustration. We are two in some places of law and "one" in others.

I didn't CHOOSE to be a victim of crime. I didn't choose to allow my partner the privacy it took to do this.

You say I'm only a victim of a marriage or a poor choice. You are not in my shoes.

If his crap wasn't so SECRETIVE I'd have been able to make a better choice. I would have KNOWN.

Answer 1

I speak from a Canadian prospective here.

Our police service takes all domestic violence incidents seriously, no matter if you are dating, common-law or married (same sex or heterosexual). The problem arises when you have two conflicting stories and no evidence to support either side. I have laid many charges of assault when there were no injuries, but there was some kind of other evidence to support my case.
It is true that if you are married or comm-law your spouse can't steal from you in the legal sense because his stuff is your stuff and vice versa.
That is the law the way it is written (don't blame police officers for this one).
I put my paycheck in the bank and my husband takes out $500 to go to the casino without my permission. I am upset of course, but you must agree that this a marriage issue and it is a civil issue, not a criminal issue. If spouses cannot decide how to spend money, they should get divorced, not call the police.

Answer 2

I am completely confused by your question, but if you are married to someone who is implicating you in a crime, why are you upset that the law allows you to divorce him?

Considering the alternative viewpoint, the law doesn't tell you whom to marry or shack up with, so you may want to consider what your role has been in getting you to this point in your life where you find yourself in a situation that makes you so angry. Its amazing to me how people want the freedom to make choices without restriction, yet blame the law when they can't get someone to bail them out of their own sinking ship.

Answer 3

From the tone and tenor of your "question" I suspect you have an issue which might best be resolved through dispute resolution and/or counseling.
You are obviously VERY angry, which makes it difficult for us to discern exactly what your question is.

Answer 4

whilst cities defy federal regulation, the cities might desire to be denied federal money. Why might desire to NYC or any city have using my tax funds to establish their very own immigration coverage. whilst Hazilton Pa, replaced into no longer able to settle on how they needed to handle the illegals, they have been instructed by employing the ACLU and others that cities can no longer set their very own immigration regulations, yet whilst NYC and different cities decide for to set their very own immigration coverage the federals in basic terms supply them a bypass
