MODERN DIVORCE COURT: Red Pill v. Blue Pill and RED PILL - the movie we all must see!

​Popularized by the 1999 film, The Matrix, the "red pill v. blue pill " option in life supposedly symbolizes the choice between embracing the sometimes painful truth of reality (red pill) and the blissful ignorance of illusion (blue pill).

Red Pill - Movie Attacks Gender War Myths

​On March 7, 2017 , The RED PILL, a movie produced by a feminist journalist covering the Men's Rights Movement shakes gender wars to their point of origin. This brave new film may just finally move men and women from fighting one another in court, and instead focusing on the family courts, and the role the lawyers and judges play in fueling gender bias in courts that are supposed to act as courts of equity.

In divorce court the red pill v. blue pill symbolizes a more disturbing trend in American society: The red pill symbolizing the medication many women often take to combat depression commonly faced in mid life  and the blue pill many men in midlife take in an effort to maintain their youthful sex drive and masculinity. use of these medications are used to discredit and marginalize one spouse, for a litigation advantage and  that serves to  allow courts to continue the discord and fighting  between spouses. 

​Evidence shows that it is not long after medications are brought into the divorce record, that false claims of domestic violence, and character assignations  implying mental health instability that should preclude fair custody and property divisions,  can rage out of control . Court files show bad, incompetent and biased  family court judges mismanage cases such that they  effectively become  the mental health judges of parents and spouses appearing in divorce court.

​Too often, a judge presiding over a case for years, takes one side because of medication bias, thereby  taking one side, conduct that   fuels unethical lawyers bringing these battles to courtroom instead of allowing people to privately address such matters with their health care providers.  This is often done in modern divorce cases as  real violence and debilitating mental health problems,  formerly concealed in the  secrecy of the family and intimate relationships,  are sidelined through  years of ineffective  and biased family  court management.

Spouses  arrive in divorce court when something goes  terribly wrong in a marriage; infidelity, cultural clashes, parenting differences, disability, mental impairment and even sexual dysfunction. Divorce court is the sobering reality that very private matters once contained in the  secrecy of the family are suddenly thrust into a public record where courts of equity act more to pit one spouse against another than to fairly and equitably divide and separate them.

​When spouses first arrive in divorce court the are often  daze and confused at the sight of a courtroom. Many see these courtrooms  for the first time in life, and for 70% of people involuntarily forced into a divorce,  do so without a lawyer, and with no education or training in the law.

​Individuals terrified of public speaking , the most common fear in all humans, are terrified to find that while they needed only a court clerk signature to get married, they need to speak to a judge, in a room full of strangers, and communicate in a foreign language , just to address their most protected rights. 

It quickly becomes a sobering reality for school teachers,  professors, tech gurus, CEOs, engineers,  musicians and community leaders that they  don't know their way around a legal pleading or have the faintest notion of what a void order means. Those who have never been to college may even find that in order to assure their time with their children, or their rightful share of a marital estate, they have to get a crash course not only in basic writing, but in legal writing and laws, as they face a represented spouse in control of community funds.

​Newcomers to the American legal system, entering through the gates of family courts,  enter starry eyed, armed with a third grade understanding of the Constitution and hope, of faith in God,  that the single presiding judge in their case will fairly divide their property, act in the best interest of their children, be subject to public transparency and insist on the truth. God and family courts are legally separated.

​By a second appearance in  court, the sobering reality of the dysfunction of the family court begins to creep in. Overworked court clerks can't give direction on filing out paperwork , self help centers are overcrowded, pro bono services are non existent  and understaffed and spacious modern courthouses feel designed more to keep the public out than to conduct the business of the people .

​Passing through security screening litigants find  that the law enforcement they expected to protect them,  act more to obstruct access and transparency to the courts. Courts set local rules designed to protect incompetent government officials more than due process in the court system and tax dollars are spent for inaccessible speaking courthouses , lawyers and judges, and not on the staff who do the majority of the legal work.

​The greatest reality check is the legal lying, permitted under Civil Code 47, which allows lawyers and litigants to lie in pleadings , income declarations and never be checked.

​ As ....."But he is a liar" ......... " She is insane"  " echo through family court hallways day in and day out , and these lies , legally permitted, are tolerated by judges to the point that it impacts the outcome of the case. Fueled by unscrupulous lawyers undisciplined by the State Bar, and family courts are the legal disaster of the United States Courts.

Impacted court calendars, blamed on lack of state funding,  are responsible for dragging divorce cases  out 5- 7 years , when a middle class divorce has real estate or business assets that nefarious lawyers use to convert to millions a year in personal fees and income. Family lawyers, the least regulated and disciplined in the California Bar Association, are now among the highest paid in the legal profession.

​Family  court fees, charged on the future of our children,  are generating the largest component of California's modern court budgets. Courts are covering budget shortfalls on the backs of community property estates.  
 
Lawyers requesting and paying experts, judges continuing hearings for months or years at a time earn more money for local court budgets and lying to keep those fees churning are an important part of the modern legal system's financial plan.

​The most alarming trend in the modern family court is the sheer lack of transparency. Guarded by litigation privilege, judicial immunity  and court staff refusing to comply with even the most basic public records requests.  The deck is stacked against the family law litigant, and the stage is set to literally drive the innocent and reasonable people into permanent depression and mental health impairment.


​Q researchers are currently collaborating with medical experts, and obtaining grant funding to investigate the impact the family court process has on the  mental health of those having to go through a divorce for longer than a one year period.
