new bill proposes strengthening domestic violence laws.



sounds like a good idea until one considers a few side-effects:



let's pretend i'm a divorced father with a young child.



let's pretend my ex-wife hates my guts because i dared to leave her.



let's pretend my ex-wife would like nothing better than to stop me seeing my child.



let's pretend my ex-wife makes up a story about me whacking her in the face.



let's pretend the police believe her and prosecute me.



let's pretend i'm acquitted because there's no evidence against me.



let's pretend the bitch then gets an order preventing me coming near her - thus preventing me seeing my child.



justice?



fuck off.
