Despite light blogging this last couple of years, the Truther's exposes of this family court is now at an end. My time is up here. Somebody else will have to pick up the torch. It is time for me to put this aside for good with one caveat; I do reserve the right to pop in again if necessity warrants it. You know, poke the caged tiger and he swipes back. There are plenty of CTM related DSHS PDRs on deck if need be. Still many cards left unplayed sitting in the drafts folder. So, in sum, after years of connecting the dots, uncovering the dirt, watching and reporting, here is my final conclusion; it's the legislature. At the end of the day, it is simply the Legislature that is to blame. However despicable and detestable I find the players to be in this family law madness /racket, it all comes down to the legislature writing the laws that allow/encourage them to do what they do. These maniacally crafted laws encourage the court and women to behave badly, perjure themselves and sling no burden of proof false allegations when seeking financial and custodial advantage. Some women take full advantage. Many women don't game the system and many women would never tear kids and fathers apart for their own selfish needs. Most women have a good sense a fair play when it comes to sorting out, moving on with their lives and minimizing the impact on the development of their children. So, yes, it takes the laws and it takes a special kind of woman to take full advantage of said laws. It also takes a judicial officer with a special kind of leaning in his/her discretion and thinking. We just happen to have an abundance of that here in Thurston which makes it an extra special place to be. Beyond that, Judges and commissioners don't do what is right, they do what is "legal" and expected of them. They are obligated to tow the line even when their "broad discretion" could (and should) swing in the direction of the truth and justice. The Bar Union controls and dictates to the legislature in this state and they also make damn sure they have the right personnel in place in the courts, too. They have crafted and now have power and control of the perfect racket. Do with that as you will. Those are just the facts, Mam.
Peace Out. Blessed are the Peace Makers (Matthew 5:9) and Woe unto you, Lawyers (Luke 11:46). Peace B Love, my friends.
