Judge in Tennessee Tells Man he is Wrong for Not Wanting to Pay Child Support for Child That Isn't his

A news video from a local Tennessee station highlights the fact that in many family courts across the country Judges feel as though men who fight paying child support for children who aren't theirs are unfairly hurting the child because even though he's not the father "all children need a daddy". Or at least this is the excuse the judge often gives:


"(Memphis) Talk show TV makes millions off the catch phrase, you are not the Daddy!
However, the reality in Memphis is just because you’re not the father, doesnt mean you won’t have to pay. Edward Bowdery told us, “I was down there in handcuffs and chains.” Over the years Bowdery had his drivers license stripped and once even found himself in handcuffs over child support payments for a child that’s not his, “I would hate to see somebody else go through the same thing. I’ve been going through this, headaches.” A mound of paperwork shows a juvenile court judge ordered him to pay child support even before the birth. “I didn’t do a voluntary acknowledgement. I didn’t sign the birth certificate. All I know is we legitimated the child in your name,” said Bowdery."

Should we Just Blame Men for Female Circumcision? No Not Really

We've all heard the claim that men-only are responsible for female genital mutilation in third world countries and it is one of the most malicious lies perpetrated right now. But as UNICEF reports it's usually women who perform the procedure and female genital mutilation is a ritual that is seen as "women's business":

"In the majority of cases it is mothers or grandmothers who organize and support the cutting of their daughters, and in many places the practice is considered “women’s business.” DHS survey data from eight African countries where FGM/C is practiced show a higher proportion of women than men favouring its continuation (Yoder, Abderrahim, and Zhuzhuni 2004: 44). This is consistent with data and testimony drawn from field reports and case studies (Gruenbaum 2001: 35; Johnsdotter 2002: 93-101; Shell-Duncan et. al 2000: 121-122).
The perpetuation of FGM/C and professed support of the practice by women represent one of the chief puzzles that researchers have sought to better understand. To say that patriarchy causes FGM/C is insufficient, because most, if not all, communities that do not practice FGM/C are also patriarchal."

http://www.polisci.ucsd.edu/~gmackie/documents/UNICEF.pdf

"The large majority of girls and women are cut by
a traditional practitioner, a category which includes
local specialists (cutters or exciseuses), traditional
birth attendants and, generally, older members of the
community, usually women. This is true for over 80
percent of the girls "

And it's not just the feminist movement saying this but it is our entire culture lying to us about this.

The Feminist Movement's Claim About Women in the Third World Having no Basic Rights is Bogus

In this blog post I will be presenting clear, concrete, documented, evidence refuting the idea that most of the women in third world countries do not have property rights, that women in third world countries cannot travel overseas without a man, that women in third world countries cannot open a bank account without a man, that women in third world countries are not allowed to work, and that women in third world countries do not have constitutional protections against sexual assault. And I will be doing this by linking you to direct documentation from the constitutions of these Third World Countries via the World Bank. I will also be illustrating a clear example of the mainstream media telling a dramatic bold faced lie about the rights women are given in one Third World country in particular.


What inspired me to look into this and indirectly led me to the information was a post on Exposing Feminism's facebook page where they were countering the claim made in a Time Magazine article about how a google search of terms related to women proved that women were all second class citizens across the world and a conversation with a fellow MRA on the phone who was researching the lies the feminists were telling about Brazil. It's amazing what brainstorming can bring up. Here's the fantastic post Exposing Feminism made countering their claim:

https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=714857065209153&set=a.513187095376152.130942.500036446691217&type=1&theater


And here's the Time Magazine article where they claim women are all second class citizens:

http://newsfeed.time.com/2013/10/18/new-ad-campaign-uses-popular-search-terms-to-show-how-the-world-really-feels-about-women/


Now if you click on that first hyperlink in that Time Magazine article you will be led to a Discovery Channel webpage which they use as proof of their claim that the men in the third world have all turned women into second class citizens. Well if you go to reason #6 for why women are supposedly all second class citizens in the third world countries they state that women in Chile do not have the right to own property/land:

"6. Restricted Land Ownership
In some countries, such as Chile and Lesotho, women lack the right to own land."

http://dsc.discovery.com/tv-shows/curiosity/topics/examples-gender-inequality-around-world.htm

But if you read the comments under that statement by the readers you will notice a person who lives in Chile tells them they're lying:

" .... I'm from Chile... I don't know where you got this information, but when my grandfather passed away my grandmother became the new owner of the house and land. My mum bought a piece of land a few months ago and now is building herself a new house. My step mum's mother owned a dairy farm that she inherited from her dad when he passed away so...."


So me being the curious guy that I am I went and looked up everything I could find on Chile and Lesotho and after a substantial amount of searching I found the World Bank's information on these countries and the constitutional rights of women there and guess what? The Discovery Channel, the UN and Time Magazine were lying through their damned teeth. Women in Chile and Lesotho do have the right to own property and sons and daughters have equal inheritance rights:

Chile:

Lesotho:

http://wbl.worldbank.org/data/exploreeconomies/lesotho/2013#using-property


The idea that women have no property rights would make no sense whatsoever in countries where historically men have been drafted into the military and left their wives behind. Why would anyone leave a wife on their land when they could die in the war and that property would just be stolen by any man who came by? Does this make any sense? Do you know how destabilized a region would be due to this?

But not only do women in Chile have property rights but their testimony in court constitutionally holds the same value as a man's, they have protection under the constitution from sexual violence, domestic violence, the law mandates maternity leave over there for women and actually the GOVERNMENT pays their maternity leave not the employer! Women are allowed to retire at 60 and receive full retirement pay from the Government but men have to wait until 65 even though the life expectancy for men is only 75 while the life expectancy for women is 82. Take a look for yourself:

India is the other big country the feminists like to demonize as a place where all the men are oppressive monsters and the women have no rights. Well guess what? Women in India have full property rights, sons and daughters have equal inheritance rights, the law mandates paid maternity leave but not paternity leave, a woman can retire and receive full benefits at age 58 from the Government, the women have constitutional protection from domestic violence, sexual violence, emotional abuse, sexual harassment, and a woman's testimony carries the same evidentiary weight in court as a man’s:

But according to MS Magazine which is feminist pioneer Gloria Steinem's publication, India hates women:

"India hates women. That is the ugly, unvarnished truth."

http://msmagazine.com/blog/2013/01/07/being-female-in-india-a-hate-story/

If they hate women why give them all these constitutional rights?

Let's go to Africa since the feminist movement LOVES to claim that men are just slapping women around in the streets there left and right and that they have no rights. Let's look at Rwanda which is a low income country. First of all a whopping 88% of the women are employed people there, women have equal property rights to men, the law mandates paid maternity leave, women can retire at 55 and receive full retirement benefits, women have the right to work the same jobs as men, a woman's testimony carries the same evidentiary weight in court as a man’s, the constitution guarantees equality before the law, women have constitutional protections from domestic violence, sexual violence, emotional abuse and sexual harassment:

Let's look at Nigeria which is another one of the feminist movement's favorite targets to symbolize male oppression. In Nigeria women are provided a non discrimination clause in the constitution, the constitution guarantees equality before the law, women have full property ownership rights, girls have equal inheritance rights, the law provides paid maternity leave BUT NOT paid paternity leave, women can retire and receive full benefits at 50, a woman's testimony carries the same evidentiary weight in court as a man’s, women have constitutional protections from domestic violence, emotional abuse, and sexual abuse

Let's go to Ethiopia. 81% of the women there are employed, they have non-discrimination clauses in the constitution that specifically covers women, women have full business ownership rights, women have full property ownership rights, girls have equal inheritance rights, maternity leave is mandated by the Government BUT NOT paternity leave, a woman can retire and receive full benefits at 60, a woman's testimony carries the same evidentiary weight in court as a man’s, and women have protections from domestic violence, emotional abuse, and sexual harassment:

Some of these third world countries actually have quotas where the Governments are forced to be a certain percentage of the federal and or local Government:


In Columbia the local Governments have to be at least 30% women:

http://wbl.worldbank.org/data/exploreeconomies/colombia/2013


In Bangladesh the local Governments have to be 21% women and the Federal Government has to be at least 14% women:

In Kenya, a country the feminist organizations love to bash, the Governments are forced to have at least 33% women in both local and Federal Government:

The federal Government in Nepal is forced to be at least 33% women:

In Pakistan they have to be at least 17.5% of the federal Government:

In Rwanda not only do women have to make up at least 30% of both federal and local Governments but they also have to make up at least 30% of all Corporate boards BY LAW:

And in Zimbabwe women have to make up 20% of the federal Government:

http://wbl.worldbank.org/data/exploreeconomies/zimbabwe/2013


The idea that women in Third World countries have no basic rights is the feminist movement's most powerful claim in demonizing men collectively and as we can see it's yet another bogus instance of empty rhetoric.

The Contradictory Messages Women Give to Men

Look at the two messages in both songs. These are the contradictory messages men are getting today from an awful lot of women. Why do we wonder why some men choose not to marry?

The Witch Persecutions and the Untold Story of Female Participation

The feminist movement has effectively whitewashed the history of the witch persecutions and now people believe that it was just men targeting women and it was just that simple. Somehow they get amnesia anytime you bring up the fact that in places like Scotland the Scottish Witchcraft Act was approved by Mary Queen of Scots:

"By touching bills with her sceptre, she assented to several laws, among them, declaring it a capital crime to practice witchcraft"

http://books.google.com/books?id=i8kD_XkHcNcC&pg=PA91&lpg=PA91&dq=Mary%2C+Queen+of+Scots+witchcraft+act&source=bl&ots=3rv6gfh6lR&sig=7SbISCg9RLHQCR_IjRZ0l3nDELE&hl=en&sa=X&ei=hXhoUt7zJ4To9gTcp4HAAw&ved=0CEAQ6AEwAzgo#v=onepage&q=witch&f=false


And contrast this with how the feminists tell the history:

"In Lewd Women and Wicked Witches, Marianne Hester reviews and develops revolutionary feminist thinking. Accordingly, she shows how witches can be seen as victims of the oppression of a male dominated society.
Concentrating on English source material, the author shows how witch-hunts may be seen as an historically specific example of male dominance."

http://books.google.com/books/about/Lewd_Women_and_Wicked_Witches.html?id=JaQSVcptVxYC


Witchcraft persecutions in England got started with Elizabeth I's statute:

"Witchcraft persecutions really began in England in 1563 with the statute of Elizabeth I"

Feminist University Lecturer Says Meat-Eating is Proof of Oppression of Women

Carol J. Adams a self proclaimed vegan feminist and a woman who is a favorite on University campuses for student lectures in her book as well as her speeches claims that meat eating is proof of male-oppression of women as well as animals. In her book THE SEXUAL POLITICS OF MEAT we see her in characteristic feminist fashion blaming everything on men and using the feminist movement's favorite word "patriarch" over and over again:

"Dietary habits proclaim class distinctions, but they proclaim patriarchal distinctions
as well. Women, second-class citizens, are more likely to eat what are
considered to be second-class foods in a patriarchal culture: vegetables,
fruits, and grains rather than meat.

The sexism in meat eating
recapitulates the class distinctions with an added twist: a mythology
permeates all classes that meat is a masculine food and meat eating
a male activity...

Women are the food preparers; meat has to be cooked to be palatable
for people. Th us, in a patriarchal culture, just as our culture
accedes to the “needs” of its soldiers, women accede to the dietary
demands of their husbands, especially when it comes to meat...

Women are allied with animals because they too are objects of use
and possession. Women’s oppression is expressed through the trope
of meat eating...

A feminist-vegetarian critical theory begins, as we have seen, with the
perception that women and animals are similarly positioned in a
patriarchal world, as objects rather than subjects."

Lack of Women in Tech Industry? Blame the Job Ads for Being Too Masculine

Why are there not as many women in the tech industry as men? Could it be due to the fact that women aren't as interested in how electronics work as men? Nope. According to the feminist controlled Universities it's because ad listings for tech jobs use "masculine language" that discourages women from applying:

"According to a paper recently published in Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, there could be a subtle gender bias in the way companies word job listings in such fields as engineering and programming. Although the Civil Rights Act effectively bans companies from explicitly requesting workers of a particular gender, the language in these listings may discourage many women from applying."

Time Magazine on How False Rape Claims Can Supposedly Benefit the Men Who are Accused

The following Time Magazine article reveals how some feminists believe that being falsely accused of rape is a good thing for men and how loosening the definition of rape will benefit society and justice:


"A new twist in society's perception came in 1975, when Susan Brownmiller published her book Against Our Will: Men, Women and Rape. In it she attacked the concept that rape was a sex crime, arguing instead that it was a crime of violence and power over women. Throughout history, she wrote, rape has played a critical function. "It is nothing more or less than a conscious process of intimidation, by which all men keep all women in a state of fear."

Out of this contention was born a set of arguments that have become politically correct wisdom on campus and in academic circles. This view holds that rape is a symbol of women's vulnerability to male institutions and attitudes. "It's sociopolitical," insists Gina Rayfield, a New Jersey psychologist. "In our culture men hold the power, politically, economically. They're socialized not to see women as equals."

This line of reasoning has led some women, especially radicalized victims, to justify flinging around the term rape as a political weapon, referring to everything from violent sexual assaults to inappropriate innuendos. Ginny, a college senior who was really raped when she was 16, suggests that false accusations of rape can serve a useful purpose. "Penetration is not the only form of violation," she explains. In her view, rape is a subjective term, one that women must use to draw attention to other, nonviolent, even nonsexual forms of oppression. "If a woman did falsely accuse a man of rape, she may have had reasons to," Ginny says. "Maybe she wasn't raped, but he clearly violated her in some way."

Catherine Comins, assistant dean of student life at Vassar, also sees some value in this loose use of "rape." She says angry victims of various forms of sexual intimidation cry rape to regain their sense of power. "To use the word carefully would be to be careful for the sake of the violator, and the survivors don't care a hoot about him." Comins argues that men who are unjustly accused can sometimes gain from the experience. "They have a lot of pain, but it is not a pain that I would necessarily have spared them. I think it ideally initiates a process of self-exploration. 'How do I see women?' 'If I didn't violate her, could I have?' 'Do I have the potential to do to her what they say I did?' Those are good questions."

The Evil All-Powerful Male Patriarchy

Mary Daly was a feminist professor who taught at Boston College for 33 years until she was forced to retire after a male student sued her for barring men from attending her classes. She was instrumental in shaping what's called "patriarchytheory" which is the idea that male led households/families are anti-female and that they are formed because men hate women. The following excerpts are from her book "Gyn/ecology: The Metaethics of Radical Feminism" and gives you a peek into the mind which shaped how most feminists view male-led households today:


"Three such words...which I cannot use again are God, androgyny,
and homosexuality. There is no way to remove male/masculine imagery from
God. Thus, when writing/speaking “anthropomorphically” of ultimate reality, of
the divine spark of be-ing, I now choose to write/speak gynomorphically. I do so
because God represents the necrophilia of patriarchy, whereas Goddess affirms
the life-loving be-ing of women and nature."


"The radical be-ing of women is very much an Otherworld Journey. It is both
discovery and creation of a world other than patriarchy. Patriarchy appears to
be “everywhere”. Even outer space and the future have been colonized."

"It is a mistake to see men as pitiable victims or vessels to be
“saved” through female self-sacrifice. However possessed males may be within
patriarchy, it is their order; it is they who feed on women's stolen energy."

"Patriarchy has stolen our cosmos and returned it in the form of
Cosmopolitan magazine and cosmetics. They have made up our cosmos, our
Selves."

"I have coined the term metapatriarchal to describe the journey, because the
prefix meta has multiple meanings. It incorporates the idea of “postpatriarchal”,
for it means occurring later. It puts patriarchy in the past without denying that
its walls/ruins and demons are still around."

"There is nothing like the sound of women really laughing. The roaring laughter
of women is like the roaring of the eternal sea. Hags can cackle and roar at
themselves, but more and more, one hears them roaring at the reversal that is
patriarchy, that monstrous jock's joke, the Male Mothers Club that gives birth
only to putrefaction and deception."

"Gyn/Ecology requires a constant
effort to see the innerconnectedness of things. It involves seeing the totality of
the Lie which is patriarchy, unweaving its web of deception. Since the totality of
the patriarchal Lie is not integrity, since it lacks the complexity of real integrity,
it tends to fall apart quickly once we see its pattern, once we dare to face “the
whole thing”. Moreover, since it depends entirely upon the reality which it
distorts and demonically reflects, our seeing through patriarchy is at the same
time learning to see the Background, our stolen integrity/energy/be-ing."

"Thus by breaking the imposed silence we help to spring other
prisoners of patriarchy"

"The courage to be logical – the courage to name – would require that we
admit to ourselves that males and males only are the originators, planners,
controllers, and legitimators of patriarchy. Patriarchy is the homeland of males:
it is the Father Land; and men are its agents."

"I have already suggested that in women's metapatriarchal Otherworld Journeying the wardens are the demonic powers of patriarchy, which assume ghostly forms (that is, are difficult to perceive) and function as noxious gases. Women who are able to
name our Selves are thereby empowered to name the demons at each Passage.
When we say their names, they – in effect – drop dead. To put it another way,
the gases drop down (condense) into a merely messy puddle."

"Patriarchy is itself the prevailing religion of the entire planet, and its essential
message is necrophilia."

"women are the objects of male terror, the projected
personifications of “the Enemy”, the real objects under attack in all the wars of
patriarchy."

"To visualize the procession of generations of crippled mothers and daughters,
hobbling on three-inch long caricatures of feet, moving slowly, grotesquely,
painfully in meaningless circles within the homes (prisons) of fathers and
husbands – their owners – is to see the real state of women in patriarchy."

"Re-considering the imposed choices of the past means acknowledging that a spell has been cast upon us, that we have been framed by the pictures of patriarchy, robotized by its rituals."

"The most basic and paradigmatic form of boundary violation is, of course, rape.
Patriarchy as the Religion of Rapism legitimates all kinds of boundary violation."

"Within the massive public relations business of patriarchy, the
promotion of rape and dismemberment has top priority, and it is essential that
the promoters make this fact invisible to everyone, especially to themselves."

"For, since the patriarchy requires women to be “made-up” - that is, lie through their
bodies – this assumption that women are lying carries over to all physical
appearance, however deviant."

"Scientists are priests of patriarchy, performing the last rites."

"Since Patriarchy is the State of War, it is interesting to consider the persistent
propaganda concerning the “peaceful uses of nuclear energy”."

"As she moves through this Passage, she finds multiple manifestations of the lethal intent of patriarchy. Her increasing knowing of this intent and her facing its implications is radical exorcism."

"Indeed, the very nature of patriarchy inherently excludes justice."

"nearly everyone has been indoctrinated from infancy in the mother-hating myths of the controlling religion: Patriarchy. Fairy tales (for example, “Snow White” and “Cinderella”) teach that the only good mothers are dead ones, thinly disguising living mothers as “evil” stepmothers."

"We have seen that the perpetrators of this planetary atrocity
are acting out the deadly myths of patriarchy and that this ritual enactment of
the sado-myths has become more refined with the “progress of civilization”."

The Feminist Movement Changes the Name of the Equal Rights Amendment to the Women's Equality Amendment 2007

One of the feminist movement's biggest demands since second wave feminism has been the passage of the Equal Rights Amendment and this was the large banner bywhich they claimed the movement was all about "equality" of the genders. 

Well in 2007 they came even more out in the open with the fact that it was about female superiority all along by changing the name of the Amendment to the WOMEN'S Equality Amendment and scrapping the old name altoghether. Some will be more equal than others apparently as if they already weren't:


"Federal and state lawmakers have launched a new drive to pass the Equal Rights Amendment, reviving a feminist goal that faltered a quarter-century ago when the measure did not gain the approval of three-quarters of the state legislatures...

House and Senate Democrats reintroduced the measure under a new name -- the Women's Equality Amendment"

Researchers Receive Bomb and Death Threats for Revealing Women Can be Just as Violent as Men in the Home

Richard J. Gelles, Ph.D of the School of Social Policy and Practice at the University of Pennsylvania, Murray Straus and Suzanne Steinmetz conducted the First National Family Violence Survey in 1975 and found that the rate of male to female violence was the same as the female to male rate. They death threats and bomb threats and the female member received the brunt of the attacks from the feminist movement:

"The response to our finding that the rate of female-to-male family violence was equal to the rate of male-to-female violence not only produced heated scholarly criticism, but intense and long-lasting personal attacks. All three of us received death threats.

Bomb threats were phoned in to conference centers and buildings where we were scheduled to present. Suzanne received the brunt of the attacks - individuals wrote and called her university urging that she be denied tenure; calls were made and letters were written to government agencies urging that her grant funding be rescinded. All three of us became "non persons" among domestic violence advocates.

Invitations to conferences dwindled and dried up. Advocacy literature and feminist writing would cite our research, but not attribute it to us. Librarians publicly stated they would not order or shelve our books."

Virginia's Dept of Health Portrays Fathers as Child Sexual Abusers in Billboard Campaign

The picture is from the Virginia Dept. of Health's child abuse organization which specifically set out to bring the image of men as sexual abusers to the public. The Wall Street Journal did a decent story covering this bull:

"When children get lost in a mall, they're supposed to find a "low-risk adult" to help them. Guidelines issued by police departments and child-safety groups often encourage them to look for "a pregnant woman," "a mother pushing a stroller" or "a grandmother."

The implied message: Men, even dads pushing strollers, are "high-risk."

Are we teaching children that men are out to hurt them? The answer, on many fronts, is yes. Child advocate John Walsh advises parents to never hire a male babysitter. Airlines are placing unaccompanied minors with female passengers rather than male passengers. Soccer leagues are telling male coaches not to touch players...

Some men are opting not to get involved with children at all, which partly explains why many youth groups can't find male leaders, and why just 9% of elementary-school teachers are male, down from 18% in 1981.

People assume that all men "have the potential for violence and sexual aggressiveness," says Peter Stearns, a George Mason University professor who studies fear and anxiety. Kids end up viewing every male stranger "as a potential evildoer," he says, and as a byproduct, "there's an overconfidence in female virtues."...

This summer, Virginia's Department of Health mounted an ad campaign for its sex-abuse hotline. Billboards featured photos of a man holding a child's hand. The caption: "It doesn't feel right when I see them together."

The Journal of Family Violence Demonizes Households Headed by Fathers as Prone to Violence

In the "Journal of Family Violence" published by the Library of Congress the heterosexual family is called an unsafe place for women because of the male patriarchy. And yes they actually use the word "patriarchy". This is yet another example of institutionalized radical feminism:

In a culture such as ours, where male violence is largely approved and condoned and "masculine" ideals include aggressiveness, almost any woman can become a victim...Other researchers believe that violence against wives is historically structured into marriage under patriarchy"

Los Angeles County's Corrupt Child Support System is Hellbent on Destroying Fathers

"All it takes in Los Angeles County to be declared the father of a child — and therefore on the hook for any and all back child support, with interest — is for a mother to provide your name, the Department of Child Support Services to send you a summons choked in legalese, and for you to fail to return it within 30 days.

Such "default judgments"— which amount to 45% of all paternity-establishments in the state of California in 2005 (down from an appalling 68% five years previous) — are notoriously hard to undo once the wheels of justice are set in motion (greased by states' financial incentives from the federal government to establish as many paternities as possible).

It happened recently to a 19-year-old Palmdale kid (said to be the father of four). It's happened to untold numbers of gay men, and women with manly first names. It happened to a good friend of mine, whose never-used Christian name (Anthony Pierce) was uttered by a woman he'd never met in Northern California, thus putting him on the hook for a 10-year-old."

A Black Man Destroyed by the Crooked Child Support System Over a Child That Wasn't his

"Tony Jackson, a working class black man with a wife and two kids, got a bill from Gil Garcetti's deadbeat dad squad saying, he owes $13,000 in back child support, for a child, that he would soon prove, was not his. Jackson took a DNA test at a lab the court picked. It showed he was definitely not the father. Tough luck.

The law says anyone who receives an official court notice saying he owes child support has thirty days to respond--thirty days!--and if you don't respond in thirty days, you're considered "in default" and must pay support until the child is eighteen. Jackson was named by a woman he used to date, who, in order to qualify for welfare, had to name somebody as the father of her child.

So she picked Tony Jackson, even though he wasn't the father. Jackson didn't respond to the court order within thirty days, because he swears he never got the notice. He says he learned about it after it was sent to a former employer who never forwarded it to him.

Still, he was ordered to pay child support for a child everyone, even Gil Garcetti, agreed was not his. When I met Tony Jackson, he was a wreck. On the verge of suicide, I feared. He cried during our conversation. He said he couldn't take his own two kids out to a restaurant for a meal. He couldn't afford it because the court was taking the child support out of his paycheck before he even got it."

Mary Winkler's Battered Wife Defense Allows Murderer to go Free After Only 67 Days in Prison

"Mary Winkler, the Tennessee woman who shot her minister husband to death while he slept, was released back into society this week after serving just 67 days, most of it in a prison hospital. Did she get away with murder? Many think she did, including two TODAY experts, former judge and prosecutor Jeanine Pirro, and forensic psychiatrist Dr. Keith Ablow.


“You can’t give Mary Winkler, in my opinion, any kind of clean bill of health that she won’t be violent in the future,” Ablow told TODAY host Meredith Vieira on Thursday.
“I think it sends a terrible message about the criminal justice system, that you can commit a homicide and literally get away with it,” added Pirro...

During her trial in April, she claimed that she had been abused by her husband, with whom she had appeared to have an ideal marriage. She claimed not to remember getting the shotgun from a closet in their bedroom nor discharging it.
Winkler said that her husband, mortally wounded, rolled off the bed and asked her, “Why?” She said she told him she was sorry.

She was indicted on a charge of first-degree murder, but on April 19, after eight hours of deliberation, the jury found her guilty of voluntary manslaughter. On June 8, she was sentenced to 210 days in prison, with credit given for 143 days she had spent in jail the previous year before making bail. The judge allowed her to spend 60 of the remaining 67 days of her sentence in a mental health facility.


“Justice was definitely not served here,” Pirro told Vieira. “You had a preacher, who by all accounts was loved in his community, who was shot in the back while he slept. You have a woman who says she was abused with no history, no shred of evidence.”

Family Feud Makes Fun of Domestic Violence Against Men

"On an episode of the game show Family Feud in early October 2006, the host asked contestants: "Name something a man hopes his wife never hits him with?" No one seemed to have any problem with the question, and answers included "pan, skillet, baseball bat, tennis racquet, her fist." Despite the mean-spirited nature of the question, a good laugh was had by all without the slightest hint of guilt or hypocricy"

-"Karla Marx" pg 51


But men commit almost all of the acts of domestic violence right? Sure they do.

Feminist Professor Says New Dramatic Increase in Divorces Was a Hallmark of Equality 1933

A feminist professor reacts to the news that women are initiating a heavy increase in divorces by saying that it's a good thing and that it forces men to improve in 1933. She pretty much swore and predicted that the increase in divorce would usher in a utopia of equality. Well how do you like the utopia so far folks?

The False Accusation/Child Support Hell and the William Gregory Story

ABC News covers the story of William Gregory, a father who was put in prison for a false rape claim for 8 years of his life. After he was released due to DNA evidence proving his innocence he was forced to pay back child support due to the time he was unable to work. This is the form of "justice" men and fathers see in the court system today:

"William Gregory spent eight and a half years in a Kentucky Prison for a rape he did not commit — leaving his son on state child support.

But with his freedom came a twist straight out of Kafka: not only did he get no compensation, but the state then sued him for the child support it paid while he was in prison.

"At least compensate me for the time," said Gregory, who was released on account of DNA evidence. "Say 'I made a mistake. We made a mistake, and pay that man!'"

He said he had nothing when he got out of jail.

"I was sleeping on the street," Gregory said."

A Real Woman's Advocate

"I believe that we stand on an abyss in the last two years of this dark century. Those of us that believe that the family is the cornerstone of any civilisation are embattled with feminist forces that seek to destroy the role of men in the lives of women and children. In 1971 I opened the doors of the first shelter for victims of domestic violence in the world. Men, women and children came to my door. The feminist movement, hungry for funds and public recognition, hi-jacked my movement and turned it into a war against men."

Men and "Power"

"Men have defined 'power' as feeling obligated to earn money someone else spends, while they die sooner," Farrell says. "Men are appreciated as good providers, but it's exactly that appreciation that keeps them enslaved. Men have learned to get their family's love by being away from their families."

All Men Are Attracted to Underage Girls Claims Misandric Film

"Are All Men Pedophiles?" is a critically acclaimed film released last year which claims all men are naturally attracted to girls as young as 14 years old and is another example of the film industry going out of its way to demonize men but in this one they are demonizing men while also normalizing the idea of men being sexually attracted to underage girls:


"Are All Men Pedophiles? is a 2012 Award-Winning [1][2][3] documentary film about pedophilia by Dutch filmmaker Jan-Willem Breure. The film which had its world premiere at the Queens World Film Festival in New York City on March 2, 2012[4] has been screened at a number film festivals to considerable acclaim.[5][6]
The film which carries the tagline "Eighteen Is Just A Number" advances the claim that all men are hebephiles, that is they are attracted to teenagers, and argues that society needs to make a distinction between this and true pedophilia—sexual attraction to prepubescent children"

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Are_All_Men_Pedophiles%3F

They actually make the claim in the film that they believe ultimately pedophilia will be accepted.

Feminist Moment Leader Wanted Chivalry and "Equality"

The first wave feminists like their leader Emmeline Pankhurst wanted both chivalry and "equality" at the same time. In the following article which the screenshot is taken from you see Pankhurst tell the press that they based their movement on chivalry and depended on the usual chivalry from the male police-force.

http://www.scribd.com/doc/175323840/First-Wave-Feminism-Based-on-Chivalry-1909

And here we see Pankhurst representing the "Equality League of Self Supporting Women"

Yet again we have this same feminist leader urging men to fight in WWI to die and protect the helpless women in the name of chivalry and she is pretty much urging women to get the men to fight:

And this is what the feminist movement is STILL doing today. They want both "equality" and chivalrous double standards in law and through Government benefits paid for by the taxpayer and this is one reason why so many people were opposed to this movement from day one.

President of the National Women's Party Declares that Women are to be Dictators 1922

A day after the creation of the Women's Parliament in 1922 the President of the National Women's Party, feminist Oliver Belmont, said she wanted to oversee the creation of female dictators because men had their chance at dictatorship and now it was women's turn. This is the movement they keep telling us was only about equality for women. The female supremacy was already deeply entrenched within the movement from the get-go but our history books that the children today are taught from have erased this information:

" TWENTY-FOUR hours after the dedication of the Woman’s Parliament in Washington a representative of The Ladies’ Home Journal asked me what I really meant when I said that henceforth women are to be dictators. She was the fortieth or fiftieth person who had put the same question to me in that very limited space of time.

I meant then and mean now exactly what I said."

Susan Fenimore Cooper Says American Women Were the Best Treated Women in the World 1870

Susan Fenimore Cooper an author and daughter of James Fenimore Cooper in The Harpers Monthly, August 1870 stated that women in America were treated with respect and protection by men and had it better than any other women on the planet. She hardly sounds like the tyrannically oppressed woman the feminist movement told us all women were back then:

“In no country, whether of ancient or modern times, have women had less to complain of in their treatment by man than in America. This is no rhetorical declamation; it is the simple statement of an undeniable fact. It is a matter of social history. Since the days of early colonial life to the present hour–or, in other words, during the last two hundred and fifty years–such has been the general course of things in this country. The hardest tasks have been taken by man, and a generous tenderness has been shown to women in many of the details of social life, pervading all classes of society, to a degree beyond what is customary even in the most civilized countries of Europe. “

The UN Declares the Privacy of the Home is the Enemy to Keeping Women Safe

In "Ending Violence Against Women: From Words to Action" Volume 795
By The United Nations Division for the Advancement of Women published in 2006 they singled out laws protecting the privacy of the home as one of the main thorns in their side for accomplishing their agenda and they applauded the fact that UN International Law had helped soften up those privacy laws more to their liking. They stated:

"Legal doctrines protecting the privacy of the home and family have
been widely used to justify the failure of the State and society to intervene
when violence is committed against women in the family and to
take remedial action.71

Deference to the privacy of the home, in both
law and practice, contributes not only to impunity for violence against
women at the hands of family members, but also to impunity for violence
against domestic workers. The development of international law
in the last 15 years has extended the State’s human rights obligations in
the family arena and States have adopted laws and policies in line with
these obligations"


The feminist movement is the velvet glove on the iron fist. It always has been

ABC News on how Fathers Do Not Gain Any Parental Rights for Paying Child Support or Signing Birth Certificate

And ABC News article titled "Five important things that unwed fathers need to know" this week contains some important information men really need to pay attention to. Please take the time to read this stuff and share it with your sons or younger male family members. If you or they still have any shred of belief in the system left regarding your rights as a father, you won't after reading this:


"1. Signing the birth certificate for your child does NOT mean that you have asserted your rights as a father. Only a court can adjudicate (confirm) paternity. Without a court order, the father of the child does not legally have any rights to the child (although there is still an obligation to support the child). Dad needs to file an action to establish paternity in order to have the court recognize him as the child’s father and confirm his rights related to that relationship.



2. If the mother of your child applies for any type of assistance from the government (i.e. “food stamps,” Medicaid, etc.), the state will initiate a child support action against you, regardless of whether she wants to pursue it or not. Many men are surprised to find that the state can initiate an action against dad for child support, even if mom does not ask for the state’s help. The application for government assistance requires that mom disclose dad’s identity. If she refuses to do so, or is dishonest about her knowledge, her application can be denied without further review. Once the state knows dad’s identity, it will initiate an action against dad to ensure that he is providing support for the child as well.



3. Almost all couples who become litigants in a child support or custody action initially had some sort of “understanding” or “agreement” between them. Agreements are only as good as the will of parties who created them. While it is great that you BELIEVE that your relationship with your child’s mother is such that there is no need for a court to intervene, it is likely that the relationship will not always be pleasant and amicable. The best option for dad is to file a petition to establish his rights and obligations as the father of the child. Otherwise, dad’s ability to spend time with his child will be subject to how mom feels at that moment – good, bad, or indifferent.


4. You CAN receive credit for support if you are able to PROVE financial support of your child even before the court order has been issued. There is a common myth that dad will not be given credit for any child support provided before a court order. This is simply not true. With proper documentation (receipts, money orders, etc.) and organization, the court will be more likely to accept that support and give the credit to the father. Conversely, after an order of support has been issued, any support dad provides in a manner different than what the order requires, or in addition to what the order requires, can (and probably will) be viewed by the court as being “gifts.”


5. Child support has nothing to do with rights to spend time with a child and vice versa. Dad’s obligation to pay child support has NOTHING to do with his rights to spend time with his child. In fact, as indicated above, dad could be ordered to pay child support without the court ever considering his rights to spend time with his child. There are some men paying child support who have no legal rights to their children. Dad’s payment of child support does NOT automatically give him timesharing (visitation) rights. Those rights must be specifically granted by the court.
This list is by no means exhaustive of all of the things unwed fathers should know regarding their children, but it is a good place to start. The more fathers know, the better their chances at establishing a positive and consistent relationship in the lives of their children."
