"life is short get a divorce" Lawyers suggestively recommends with pictures of cleavage, in a new billboard situated near "Viagra Triangle," a bustling, upwardly-mobile area of downtown known as a place men can pick up women.

Heh, another reason I love living in Chicago...

This was on the news here last night, and it's hilarious. Apparently it's ruffling a few feathers, making it all the more amusing.

ABC 7 was interviewing people in the streets, apparently one hated the billboard because it "promoted breaking the 7th Commandment."

I may be wrong, but I don't think #7 is adultery, I believe it's either theft or murder.

I would assume that means "rich" men, given that if you're not talking "escorts", there must be an incentive for these women to allow themselves to be picked up by Viagra-snorting 50-something executives. What a country.

turns out that the 10 commandments arent the 10 commandments. they are about 19 commandments reduced to 10. how its reduced depends on your denomination. if you are protestant, adultury is #7; if you are catholic, its #6.

im pretty sure that this is the only time ill ever be married. im not looking to get out but i cant see a reason why i would ever do it again.

its the sleazy suggestion that an older (presumably sexually challenged) man can have a much better life if he dumps his current wife and takes up with the younger women on offer in the neighborhood.

sometimes divorce is necessary but you seldom walk out of marriage and into a sexual paradise. you lose at least half of everything you own, your kids will hate you for choosing cheap sex over their mother, and after youve fucked a few whores, you have to set about rebuilding the life your wife used to manage.

I've never been a big fan of Government involvement in marriage period, I mean why do the government need to know who I marry or divorce? However, on the subject of the picture, the fact is the "Family Courts" is a court slanted towards the women during the divorces preceding. Women are more likely to get the kids, they're more likely to get to determined how often dad gets to see the kids, and they're more likely to get the dad's toys (such as the sport car) and the house. What does the guy get, a child support payment, a crappy apartment, and a Ford Pinto. Men are more likely to be litterly cleaned out during divorces preceding. Which is why if I ever get married, my fiancee will sign a Pre-nup, if she doesn't then no wedding, no marriage.

Funny--when I got divorced, my ex and I worked all this shit out ahead of time, and continued to modify the agreement afterward. As a result, we split the bills we had pretty evenly, we agreed on an amount of child support we both thought was fair, she never got in my way when it came to visitation, and in fact, gave me domiciliary custody for four of the last eight years. Why?

Because we put the kids first and neither of us was out to screw the other. In short, we were fucking adults. We have courts because too many adults can't seem to remember that they're the grownups and are trying to either hurt or pay back the other partner.

Yea, but you know that when you meet that special person, she'll most likely be wanting a big grand marriage.

If I ever get married, the government will NOT be involved in it.

Neither my ex or I are extraordinary. By the time we decided on a divorce, I think we were both relieved to get it over with; we knew the marriage had been a mistake from the beginning. The problem in too many divorces is that one partner feels hurt--probably because of infidelity--and decides that the divorce is the best way to take out some revenge on the other's ass. And that's where a lot of these "the family court is out to destroy me" stories come from.

A guy wants out, but he doesn't realize what it's going to cost to do that. Child support is high because kids are expensive, and in the US, women still make less than men do. It's as though the men complaining here want it both ways--they want to maintain their dominant position in society but when it comes to ending a marriage, they don't want to pay the costs.

It wasn't easy for me a lot of those years to make those child support payments. When I was an undergrad, I was working two and three jobs to pay my own bills while going to school, because over half my student loan money every term went to child support. Child support is part of the reason I'm staring six figures of student loans in the face--another part of it is that my daughter lived with me during grad school and I couldn't work those extra jobs, so I lived on that money in part. But I never took any frustration out on my ex or on my child--it's part of the price of making those choices.

Not everyone, but most people seem to be. The last statistics I saw on the subject suggested that, in most cases, things were split pretty evenly - even when courts were involved (which they often aren't - except at the final approval stage). In court cases involving child custody (as opposed to cases where an agreement was reached without the court), joint custody was the most likely outcome. In cases where one parent received custody, it was the mother about 60% of the time. I think Jocabia posted them last time this sort of discussion came up.

riiiight, because the state, which exists as a mechanism to serve the people, should exist...at the expense of the people.

And the caring, loving government

Governments are never caring. Governments are never loving. Governments are managed by those who lead them, and leaders seek power.

Governments must thus be limited and restricted to prevent attempts to accumulate power.

"caring, loving governments" end up with Hitler. They end up with Stalin. They end up with Mussilini.

The "benevolent dictator" is a myth.

Self interest. I join the group because I gain something for being in it. I am benefited by being in it. If I received no benefit, I would not be a member. The group serves me, not the other way around. I am not obligated to help the government, the government is obligated to help me.

1) Just modify the fascist gov a bit and soon crime becomes non-existant, and if the leader is moralistic and cares about the nation and it's people (as every leader should) then soon the living standard rises and the place become safer, it only became unsafe once war broke out.

2) I have and continue to research and theorize how to make fascism an ideal ideology which would benefit people without as many nasty smeg ups as previous fascist nations like Germany and Italy being bombed or racism which lead to defeat later on. (Japan and Germany were racist against each other and so Japan bombed Pearl Harbor without consulting their allies who didn't expect this causing America to join and help beat all three of the axis nations)

3) For the moment it seems like the most just system if it was modified with the love for the common man, and hatred to criminals.

hatred of anyone is not just, it is not right, it is not noble. It is not even really fascism. It is sociopathology.

Civil rights allow people to harm/grief:

Themselves
others
the state
the environment
society

Stripping civil rights would stop things like WBC picketings, obliterate violent cults, kill off sociopaths and criminals who inisist on hurting those who fall in any of the catagories above.

Lets face it, civil rights do harm, people even have the right to cause STD epidemics! Take civil rights away and it'll benefit the people, civil rights are like sweets and the majority of people are like children when it comes to rights, they want more than is good for them.

Not at all--more likely is that the sex-related crime would be committed by the people in power and there would be no recourse for the victims. Remember--sex crimes are generally crimes of power, not passion. What greater expression of power would there be from a "moralistic" government than to rape a person to teach him/her a lesson? Keep your faux morality to yourself, please.

Because you don't want truly dangerous people to be held out of society.

You want to punish, torture, and kill the people that made you cry yourself to sleep after school.

That's all this is, that's all you are. That's your whole raison d'etre. You get off on the idea of people suffering who were mean to you.

Source?

Have you no righteous anger? Sociopaths are attacking the good human quality of love, tradition (the good ones), hope found in some peaceful religions, altruism and do-gooders.

It is for this reason I think their destruction is justified. I pondered this when I began forming this mindset, it occured to me that these kinds of people cannot be reasoned with, the further thought occured that the law was designed to stop these kinds of people with force, it further occured to me that other sociopaths used their whiny tactics to prevent law enforcement from doing it's job, I then learned thought of those victimized by criminals who escaped and remembered all those articles about criminals who came out either through paroll or escaped and they committed the crimes again, it then occurred to me that they will jsut keep doing the same thing over again and again and they'd only get a slap on the wrist each time, then I thought about the resources wasted on keeping them alive even though the resources could be given to the hard working citezens who put into society rather than wasted on those who jsut do harm. I theorized that the most efficient way of dealing with the mis execution, that way no food and water are wasted and less money would be wasted (they'd be executed in the cheapest way possible) secondly dead people can't commit crimes against society again. Besides we dispose of dirt in order to maintain cleanliness not move the dirt from place to place, criminals and sociopaths are the dirt of society and all we're doing is moving them around as it piles up, instead of wiping them out.

Thats why I think executing certain people who insist on doing wrong id better. That way the fruits of good peoples' labor aren't wasted on those who seek to harm good citezens.

Your logic is stupid, it's like having a rabid beast be forced to stay with the humans it hates as punishment which'll allow it to harm people some more, so what happens when the beast lashes out some more and some more?(which is the reason it'd being punished in the first place)

1) You seem to have the "it's not in my backyard" mindset where your ok with things as long as they don't effect you negatively, your selfish in that you can handle yourself and protect yourself from these shits however you do not want the protection of other citezens

2) The way it works is, lawbreakers get punished, the case you said would probably not be death (depends on circumstances like how polluted the earth is and how much legal protection it has) but he would need to have something he doesn't like and everyone else would have to hope it doesn't happen to him that way no one breaks that rule.

Moralistic fascist is an oxymoron.
Ahem, now about that add: it revolts the heck outta me. The lawyers are ruining this nation. I may sound extreme in this regard, but I believe that this sign should be outlawed. I understand the freedom of speech concern, but this isn't a bumper-sticker. It's big law-firm sign that promotes selfish divorce. The divorce rate is already too high as it is.
Off-topic, remember that sign for a music-system that promoted teens to play it loud past curfew? And then a guy protests and the company leaves it there. Then the guy plays it loud near the CEO's house after dark, and the sign comes down? That was freakin' hilarous! :p

1) Just modify the fascist gov a bit and soon crime becomes non-existant, and if the leader is moralistic and cares about the nation and it's people (as every leader should) then soon the living standard rises and the place become safer, it only became unsafe once war broke out.

A moralistic leader cannot run a fascist nation. If you are refering to a Benevolent Dictatorship, then I agree. However, a Benevolent Dictatorship rarely happens, and if one agaisnt all-odds is established, sooner or later you're going to get a Hitler running everything. Therefor, the next best goverment is a Libertarian one. Some Thomas Jefferson quotes: "Democracy is nothing more then mob-rule where 51% of the populance can take-away the rights of the other 49." "The goverment's best that governs least."

Civil rights allow people to harm/grief:

Themselves
others
the state
the environment
society

Stripping civil rights would stop things like WBC picketings, obliterate violent cults, kill off sociopaths and criminals who inisist on hurting those who fall in any of the catagories above.

Lets face it, civil rights do harm, people even have the right to cause STD epidemics! Take civil rights away and it'll benefit the people, civil rights are like sweets and the majority of people are like children when it comes to rights, they want more than is good for them. Would ou rather have a civillian populace of brats or one of altruistic and disciplined individuals who are willing to do good for their society?

I'm about to make an historical quote, gather around everyone: "If Hell had civil-rights, and Heaven did not, then I would glady choose Hell."

life is too short for everything not to be a hobby and everyone not free to perue it.

in cameroi everything is, and even our infrastructure, which is our collective pride and joy as a nation is run by volunteers. coordinated and directed by the most experienced among them, but volunteers none the less.

as for that mater, is everything else, under a modified form of potlatching, where no one starves, or is homeless, and may accumulate their own tools, or borrow the use of public ones, and build their own shelters, or live in public ones, as they see fit, and no one is misslead into persuing gratification where there is none to be found, such as trying to impress each other, or very little, as in the pseudo-sophistries of excitement addiction.

if children were not repressed (in your mundane, insanity dominated world of earth) from persuing their sexual fantasies, by laws far more abusive then anything their proponents are so arbitrarily and self ritiously claiming, even immagining themselves to prevent, there would not be these absurd and ever so exploitable obsessions in the first place. (which life is just as much too short for as well).

in cameroi we lower furtility not raise it, and libido gets along just fine on its own, as well or not as it has any need to.

nothing like a "free country" to make slavery universal; and no idiology is any less of a lying excuse for doing so then any other.

I'm having a bit of trouble following this discussion, but it seems like you just argued that people who want to get divorced are like rabid beasts, who should be forced to stay together lest they "lash out" at other human beings.

Thats the kind of dictatorship I find ideal, a benevolent one. Besides democracy always ends in dictatorship anyway from the way I see it because the popular party always gets the majority it of course gets powers, if it is voted in multiple times its power builds and pretty soon it starts trying to stay in power illegally, sometimes its subtle like in the US or blatant like in Italy and nazi Germany.

Well look. It's one thing to say: "You've been injured. Now you need compensation for that injury and without legal representation you won't get what you deserve! Call Dewey Cheetem, & Howe."

It's another to say "Short of money? Many accident victims receive large cash payments, go out and have an accident, then call Dewey Cheetem, & Howe."

I agree, it's a fine line. Which is why advertising used to be completely prohibited. Nevertheless this divorce advert crosses it in my opinion. Moreover, I think they believe they are going to get more latitude because this was traditionally more of a problem with ambulance chasers rather than family law lawyers.

That said, I am not an Illinois lawyer, so it's up to them, I guess. I still say it is barratry though.
