Should a man call the police if there is an argument in the house?

Arguements? NO!!, killing eachother?? YES!!!!
Re: Men Who Call Police On Their Wives by N101: 6:53pm On Sep 07, 2011
If there is a threat of violence, or to the life and the wellbeing of the occupants then yes. If it's just a loud domestic argument, then no.

i think its the other way around. in most cases, its the woman that calls the police on their husbands cos the men are more intimidating.

Call the police because of an argument. I think people that abuse the emergency system should be arrested when the police get there. There might be someone else whose life depends on the line and some thing else is calling to report that their spouse is looking at them funny

Call family first not police.

Unless wife has a gun or a knife.

Why would a man call police just because of an argument with his wife? He just needs to settle things with his woman. if he can't, then a friend or relative can help out but not involving the police.

What if the argument degenerated into "a hot slap" GBOAM! On his face! shocked shocked
Is he entitled/allowed to call the Police at that stage?

If not, what does he do?

Lastpage.


BTW: I will invert that question and ask it the other way round:
What if teh argument degenerated into " a hot slap" GBOAM on her face? cry cry
Is she entitled/allowed to call the Police at that stage? wink wink
Re: Men Who Call Police On Their Wives by ronkebp(f): 6:07pm On Jan 27, 2012
@^^^^^ LASTPAGE TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION, NO!!!! i WILL NOT CALL THE COPS ON HIM YET!!!
Re: Men Who Call Police On Their Wives by Nobody: 6:54pm On Jan 27, 2012
The only instances a man should call the police on his wife:

01) The wife is wielding a gun.
02) The wife is wielding a machete.
03) The wife is wielding a knife.
04) The wife is wielding an axe.

This is assuming the man has enough time to make the call (like he's barricaded himself in a room with no exit). grin It's also assuming he's not in Nigeria - the NPF may ask for "fuel money" before they send a unit to intervene. grin

05) The wife is dangling one of their children from a window higher than ground floor level.
06) The wife is threatening to step out of a window higher than ground floor level.
07) The wife is threatening to slit her wrists with a knife larger and sharper than a table knife.

In all, never under estimate the strength or size of a woman. I've seen women big and tough enough to give Larry Holmes a workout. embarassed

I the law made for women only?

It is better to call the police on your wife, before she turns you to an abuser.

How can he call the cops cos of an argument? Inshort if he even calls them,they'll tell him to go and sort it out say na family matter.
Re: Men Who Call Police On Their Wives by Nobody: 8:24am On Jan 28, 2012
Why should he call the police? Is he not a man grin

That is a lie. A woman cannot call the cops over and argument and the cops will arrest the man because he was arguing with the woman. Geez

I think what he means is, in most society, (Nigeria in particular) a woman calling the cops, alleging she was attacked by her husband is most likely to get responded to. And if the reverse was the case, i.e a guy calls the cops, stating his wife attacked him, would most likely be met with derision, and is less likely to get responded to.
Re: Men Who Call Police On Their Wives by moremi2008(m): 8:47pm On Jan 28, 2012
Why not? If the woman is acting violent and the man wants to avoid an escalating situation, then he should call the cops and have them handle the situation. Both men and women pay the taxes that pay those cops' salaries.

Why waste time calling the police when your life is not in danger? undecided
I would encourage any MAN OR WOMAN in a marriage to call the police if he or she feels threatened in ANY WAY.
I have done it before and it worked like magic! cool

Men are mostly the abusers. . .not women. WOMEN ONLY LEARN AFTER BEING TAUGHT BY THE MEN!
Domestic violence is a part of an AFRICAN/NIGERIAN MAN'S LIFE!
You learn to deal with them SQUARELY! cool

Any man that cannot bring order and peace into his home without an external influence aside God is not fit to be called a husband.its either he should remain a bachelor and leave in his fathers house or alone with 'the boys' as long as he chooses to remain immature.afterall being a man is not only about being able to impregnate a woman because everything that has a penis is capable of impregnating a female,even 14 year olds can impregnate

exactly and thats why i was impressed with my father when he made my brother inlaw sign an agreement on the day of my sisters introduction that anyday he hits her violently,he will be arrested and prosecuted.since 1o years ago they have been living peacefully.lol,i was particularly amused when my inlaws exclaimed in shock and then my father said its either he signs this papers or look for hus wife elsewhere,this is how i want it in my family and thats final.he can verbally attack her,ignore her,ignore her food and all when they have issues or when he wants to drive home a point but the day of doom for him is when he physically abuses or attacks her.moreso sef i've not heard of women physically attacking their husbands except in nollywood comic movies so domestic violence especially in africa is usually a man thing
Re: Men Who Call Police On Their Wives by Princess1982(f): 6:19am On Jan 28, 2013
For a argument no, the police should be out solving crimes not breaking up argument between a husband or a wife. However were I live if you call the police for a argument somebody could get charged with disturbing the peace or disorderly conduct. I know of a mother who called the police on her son for a argument and thats the charges he received the punishment is usually just a fine.
