I've actually heard it a lot from most people, actually about everyone I've ever talked with about a DV case. This is literally the first time I've heard that it was false. I've always wondered because of my particular case. Now I know.
^ This was friggen funny.
Did you ever think that maybe he's trying to calmly tell you how it is in the real world, how things actually work, and not the happy magical land everyone would love their arguments to work in? You can fight all day long about how you wish it were, or hope it would be, but Bailey is arguing about how it is. This is really reminding me of arguing with liberals (how things are, vs how they wish things were).
You've really stayed in this, I'm surprised. Now, I really really want someone to take a camcorder, and test this theory out. Seriously, have your friend call in a DV on you and your wife, and try your theory out. This should be another nice youtube video..... As your smart ass is getting it handed to you, I want you to call out "this is for you spyder!"
