Ohio Supreme Court Rules That Women Are Stupid And Helpless
...crazy bitches to get a free pass in the state
The Ohio Supreme Court has ruled that a woman can't be held accountable for helping a man violate the protective order she has against him, thereby placing women a step down on the free-will and responsibility tier. This also opens up a fun new avenue for bitter women to harrass their exes with.
Justice Paul Pfeifer, writing for the court, said it is irrelevant even if Betty Lucas had violated the protective order by inviting her ex-husband into her home, as the lower court found.

"To find appellant guilty of complicity would be to criminalize an irrelevancy," Pfeifer wrote. "We hold that an individual who is the protected subject of a temporary protection order may not be prosecuted for aiding and abetting the restrainee under the protection order."
If someone is so dangerous to you that you have to get a protective order against them, it behooves you to stay the hell away from them, or face the consequences. If you appeal to the government for protection, deliberately circumventing the government's attempts to protect you should either a) be illegal, or b) nullify the government's responsibility towards you. In a just world, a protective order would work both ways.

Unfortunately, since the Ohio Supreme Court has ruled that women are too dumb to be responsible for their actions, the only consequence Betty Lucas faces is people like me pointing out what a totally irresponsible embarrassment to the female of the species she is.
