http://www.jordan4.org/ For Domestic Arguments, 911 Not Alwa
en overlooked in the frequent reporting on the fallout of the nation's worsening economy is the effect a struggling economy can have on families. As tensions rise due to lost jobs and lost retirement funds, the frequency of domestic arguments -- and incidents of domestic violence -- tends to rise as well. When arguments between family members escalate to the point of police involvement, both family members and police officers are at risk.
Domestic violence is a serious matter, one which the state of Texas takes very seriously. To protect family members in volatile situations, when officers are called to the scene of a domestic disturbance, even a mere accusation of physical abuse is enough to virtually guarantee that the alleged abuser will be arrested and taken to jail. If you are ever a victim of domestic abuse, it is important that you seek help immediately.

,Jordan Retro 4, however, involve the risk of physical harm. In many, many situations -- where a verbal battle between husband and wife is just that -- it is important for Texas families to realize that calling 911 may not be a solution to their problems. In fact, by escalating a mere argument to a police matter, families may be simply increasing the risk to them and to the officers forced to respond to the scene.
A Tragedy in Stafford
Early this year, a 19-year old son in Stafford,new jordans 2012, Texas, was involved in an argument with his parents. In response, the parents placed a 911 call, asking for help. When the responding officer arrived and opened the door,http://www.jordan4.org/, he became involved in a struggle with the teen. At some point during the struggle, the officer pulled his weapon and shot the teenager, who died on the way to the hospital.
While tragic, instances such as this are not rare. And not only family members are endangered: According to some experts, as many as 15 percent of all officer deaths occur during a response to a domestic disturbance report. This is perhaps unsurprising, considering the confusion and turbulence of most domestic disturbance calls.
Police officers, who were not witness to the preceding arguments, arrive at the scene to hear two or more stories, often conflicting. Officers have to quickly decide how best to calm the situation -- interviewing participants and witnesses, processing conflicting information -- all while trying to protect themselves. Most officers know that the expedient solution is to arrest one of the parties, as taking a husband or wife to jail will usually defuse the situation,If you need further information just follow this

, at least temporarily.
In many instances, however, family members do not want other family members to get in serious trouble -- when an arrest is mentioned, people may want to "drop the charges." Unfortunately, these people fail to realize that,If you need further information just follow this

, by calling 911, they are ceding control of the situation to the authorities. Once police have responded and made a determination that someone should be arrested, whether the case is pursued is the sole discretion of the state of Texas. By calling 911, family members risk up to a year in jail and a $4,000 fine for a family arrest; once it begins, little can be done to halt the process.
An Alternative
Again, as soon as a domestic argument escalates to physical violence (or even a real threat of physical violence) it is important to seek help as quickly as possible. For mere verbal arguments, however,Air Jordan 4, consider other alternatives before you make that 911 call. A family member, a trusted neighbor, your pastor or priest -- anyone familiar with you and your family that can provide the voice of reason in a turbulent situation may be able to help you avoid the consequences of police involvement.
