Court TV Sunday Oct 29 2007 (episode 208) 

Mr Honickman/City TV/Court TV:

I am offended and appalled at the one sided nature of this particular episode (208) of Legal Briefs.

I am unsure when this was originally aired, but its’ reference to the guest being awarded a woman of the year award of some sort in 2006 implies it was an older episode,

None the less, I am still outraged at the one sided nature of the show and the guest’s propensity for attacking anyone who appeared to disagree with her views.

There was a Toronto police officer who called in and offered a statistic that upwards of 40% of all domestic abuse/sexual abuse complaints was fraudulent, which made the guest livid. She basically attacked him, his professionalism, his bias, etc (standard fair for whomever doesn’t agree with the abuse industry’s portrayal of all women being victims and all men being abusers).

The whole program was centred on women being victims, without even a reference to even the potential that men could be victims of domestic violence too. If you were to switch the genders around and make the show about women as something or other and men the victims, you couldn’t air the program (or substitute a religion for women and bash that religion and see how long it is before you are up on hate crimes charges and before a human rights tribunal).

I am lucky. The false allegation levelled by my ex (stalking) I was able to defeat coming out of the gate. I was smart enough to keep receipts for every purchase I made throughout the day and kept my signed time card with me to account for working hours. When my ex alleged that I was stalking her by sitting out front of her house in my car, I was able to prove categorically that I was no where near her house. I was lucky because I used the debit card for everything, thereby stamping the receipt indelibly with my own id (debit card number or part thereof) so that I could prove the receipt was MINE, not someone I had retrieved the receipt from for an alibi.

I still had to go through hell to convince the police officer that she was lying, but it was made a whole lot simpler by keeping mundane receipts, enabling me to prove I was at the other end of town during the period in question and prevent me from being arrested solely on HER WORD that I had stalked her.

Were there sanctions against my ex for LYING? NO, of course not! Why would there be? It wouldn’t be “in the best interests of the child” to pursue criminal mischief charges against my ex! What a crock!

I asked a judge for a restraining order against her, because she was hanging out where I worked and following me to bars and other places where I socialized with my friends. Did the judge grant me one, even though I had a slew of witnesses to her behaviour? NO, of course not, because I am a “”big strong man” who really doesn’t need one! Mind you, if I were to defend myself against a physical assault from my ex, then I WOULD be arrested and prosecuted, because I am a “big strong man” who shouldn’t have to use “violence” to defend myself from a woman. I should just take the physical assault, or face arrest for domestic violence ON THE SPOT, even if attacked aggressively.

I would likely be able to defend a “reasonable force” charge (being an ex bouncer, I am familiar with the concept) in the case of an assault like that, but because my ex is the assaulter, by default, I WOULD BE CHARGED WITH DOMESTIC VIOLENCE! No matter what, according to police I know.

The system is sexist to the maximum and geared towards women only! Your show preached changing attitudes/behaviour instead of pursuing mandatory sentencing, etc. Totally without credibility, I am afraid, given the one sided nature of your show and the extremist views of your guest (who seems to believe that old feminist adage “every man is a born rapist” too).

If a man suffers any form of domestic violence, there are NO services available for him and HIS KIDS (I am sick of the kids always being referred to as “hers” when the correct term should be “their”) to escape to, except HOMELESS SHELTERS (believe me, I have checked). Even the likes of Marion Boyd have refused to acknowledge domestic violence against men because there are NO services for men or boys (girls get help from 12 years old, boys get NONE).

If you are wondering why there is such male “anger”, this is part of the reason. It seems there is a whole industry built up to propagate the concept of “violence against women” and that it is exclusive to women and that men are all abusers and NEVER victims!

Men are bound to get angry at the hypocrisy that is the “justice system”, when applied to them because there IS NO JUSTICE for men. Men are abusers and pay checks for women. PERIOD. Men aren’t, apparently (and in complete conflict with current research to the contrary), nurturers. They are PAYERS. That is the view of the court, the divorce industry and society in general.

Society preaches to young men and boys that they should learn the role of nurturer, but if they do, it goes unacknowledged by the courts come divorce time!

Make up your minds. Either you want men to share in the parenting role throughout the child’s life or you don’t. Quit automatically assuming (systemically) that women are de facto better parents than men and a lot of these “anger issues” men are accused of will vanish, if they are treated FAIRLY by the courts and their roles as equal, nurturing parents get acknowledged by the divorce industry (lawyers/child professionals and judges).

I am disgusted and appalled at the propagation of this myth by a show which claims to be about providing balanced legal information to all!

You have certainly failed to provide balanced information in this case Mr Honickman.

For the record, I have never been charged, prosecuted or convicted of ANYTHING (not even jay walking, sorry). I proved that, while cohabitating with my ex, there wasn’t so much as a noise complaint that the police ever responded too (let alone any domestic violence issues or arguments, etc).

I am not an angry “abuser” lashing out. I am a calm, rational “victim” of the system, the reasons why I am prohibited by court order to share (unless a now terminated order no longer applies).

PRESS RELEASE

Hague Convention - New international Hague Convention on international child support recovery

 Approximately a 100 states will gather from the 5th till the 23rd of November 2007 at the Peace Palace in the Hague in the Netherlands to conclude a new international Hague Convention on international child support.  On the final day the 23rd of November 2007 the convention will also be signed by these states.

APPROX. 100 STATES WILL GATHER IN THE HAGUE TO CONCLUDE A NEW CONVENTION ON INTERNATIONAL CHILD SUPPORT

1.Unpaid child support – as well as support of other dependent family members – amounts to billions of Euros worldwide. When the person liable for support lives abroad, the difficulties of recovery are often insurmountable. At present, international procedures are typically slow, complicated, costly, and under-utilized. They are simply not serving the needs of the children and other family dependents who, in a mobile world in which multinational families are no longer exceptional, are increasing in number exponentially. The new Hague Convention on the International Recovery of Child Support and Other Forms of Family Maintenance is designed to respond to the often modest needs of children and other dependents by providing international procedures which are simple, swift, cost-effective, accessible, and fair. 

2.  The XXIst Diplomatic Session of the Hague Conference on Private International Law, to negotiate the new Convention on the International Recovery of Child Support and other Forms of Family Maintenance, will begin with an Opening Ceremony on Monday, 5 November 2007 at 11:00 a.m. in the Academy Building of the Peace Palace (The Hague) in the presence of the Dutch Minister of Foreign Affairs, Maxime Verhagen, and the Minister of Justice, Ernst Hirsch Ballin. The Diplomatic Session will conclude on Friday, 23 November 2007 at 11:00 a.m. with a Closing Ceremony and signing of the Final Act in the Academy Building of the Peace Palace in the presence of the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mr. Maxime Verhagen, and the Diplomatic Representatives. Delegates from more than 100 states as well as non-governmental and intergovernmental organizations are invited to participate.

3. The Hague Conference is the worldwide intergovernmental organisation for cross-border co-operation in civil and commercial matters.  It has 67 Members located on every continent. Furthermore, more than 125 States are Parties to one or more Hague Conventions.  Please see the Hague Conference website for more information:  < www.hcch.net .

FEATURE STORY

“A new Convention…designed to respond to the needs of children and other dependents by providing international procedures which are simple, swift, cost-effective, accessible, and fair.”

1.Helga has not received any maintenance payments for her three children since their father left four years ago. She said: "If we received €60 a week from him it would be really helpful.”  She has been told by local authorities that her husband cannot be located, and is thought to be abroad.  The lack of support has made her dependent on public benefits, and she has been forced to move to a shelter with her children because she cannot afford the house where they once lived. 

2.Reginaldo and Maria have been fighting for custody of their only son for seven years.  Because the parents live in different countries, the amount of support their son is entitled to and the applicable laws governing the support order are in dispute. 

3. Aminata would be able to independently live in a 2-bedroom apartment with her two children if she had a reliable, consistent way to receive the child support payments her ex-husband irregularly provides from abroad. She also faces delays in receiving any money that is sent from local authorities. Therefore she lives in a run-down and unsafe neighbourhood with her two young daughters. 

4.Helga, Reginaldo, Maria, and Aminata’s daily life stories are typical. They could benefit from the simple, swift, cost-effective, accessible and fair procedures provided for in the Convention as soon as it is in force. The Convention will benefit not only tens of thousands of dependents, but also taxpayers, whose burden increases when private obligations are not fulfilled. 

5.The new Convention builds upon the best features of existing international instruments, it facilitates the use of new technologies in streamlining the international processes, and, through a system of Central Authorities, promotes close co-operation between the child support agencies and authorities in the different Contracting States.  Together with the existing Hague Children’s Conventions, like International Child Protection, Child Abduction, and Inter-Country Adoption, the new Convention will form part of a formidable arsenal of international instruments designed by the Hague Conference to give real and practical effect to the Rights of the Child.

6. The signing of the Final Act marks agreement on the final text of the Convention (and Protocol) negotiated during the Diplomatic Session. The Convention and Protocol will then open for formal signature and ratification by States and the European Community which are Members of the Hague Conference on Private International Law, and by the other States which participate in the Diplomatic Session. Any other State not present during the Diplomatic Session may accede to the Convention after it has entered into force.

Sociopop, pensée magique, superstitions féministes et bonnes vieilles conneries

La violence des adolescentes
Date: Sat, 27 Oct 2007 08:35:32 +0200

1 - Les hommes ont appliqué aux femmes la devise : "diviser pour régner"; c'est ce qu'ils ont fait de mieux pour garder le pouvoir sur elles...

Les femmes ignorent la SORORITE; elles parlent parfois de "fraternité" sans savoir que ce terme les exclut d'emblée.

2 - On découvre une violence qui n'existait pas auparavant chez les filles.

Est-elle la conséquence d'une éducation moderne moins stricte et moins contraignante ?

Ou plutôt ne serait-ce pas le résultat de la multiplicité des DVD, des films et des sites qui diffusent des scènes de guerres, de viols, d'agressions, de vandalisme, de tortures et d'autres horreurs savamment choisies ?

Mais ce qui me chagrine, tout particulièrement, dans le cas des françaises qui vivent la mixité depuis leurs années de crèche et qui ont observé la violence des garçons, c'est que leur propre violence ne se retourne JAMAIS CONTRE LES HOMMES, MAIS TOUJOURS CONTRE D'AUTRES FEMMES !!!

Ce constat me fait désespérer de libérer réellement les femmes un jour prochain.

En réaction à ce billet intitulé "Histoire de sentences"

Mme Richer,

Au tournant de l'an 2005-06, vous avez assisté à la moquerie de justice servie par le juge Claude Leblond dans le dossier d'un père de famille accusé, quel crime odieux, d'avoir laissé 2 messages destinés à ses enfants sur le répondeur de leur mère, en conformité avec un jugement de la cour Supérieure les autorisant! Ce père de famille était alors détenu de manière préventive depuis 3 mois au moment où la sentence d'un an a été rendue, sans même tenir compte du temps passé en prévention qui, selon la règle communément admise, compte en double...

Cette mascarade de justice, personne n'est dupe, n'avait d'autre objectif que de réduire au silence un porte-parole de la branche locale du mouvement Fathers-4-Justice. Jamais, je ne vous ai entendu dénoncer les prévarications de ce juge en service commandé par son grand ami, le PM Jean Charest. L'Affaire Camille renseignera vos lecteurs ainsi que vous-même sur le cheminement de cette affaire. Rappelons à vos lecteurs que cette sentence absurde et parfaitement illégale m'impose actuellement de vivre en fugitif dans mon propre pays en raison de la complaisance des journalistes judiciaires à l'égard de la corruption omniprésente au sein de cette institution, qui depuis des décennies, s’est mise au service d'une idéologie misandre.

 
En réalité, la manière dont la justice est administrée de ce pays est une honte nationale. Des juges et des avocats prestigieux sont membres affiliés de certains groupes criminalisés. Et les sentences imposées par ces bouffons en toge de juge sont à l'image de cette institution déliquescente en mal de réforme.

 

 

First Date

If you didn't see this on the Tonight show, I hope you're sitting down when you read it. This is probably the funniest date story ever, first date or not!!! We have all had bad dates but this takes the cake.

Jay Leno went into the audience to find the most embarrassing first date that a woman ever had.

The winner described her worst first date experience. There was absolutely no question as to why her tale took the prize!

She said it was midwinter... Snowing and quite cold...and the guy had taken her skiing in the mountains outside Salt Lake City, Utah.

It was a day trip (no overnight). They were strangers, after all, and truly had never met before.

The outing was fun but relatively uneventful until they were headed home late that afternoon.

They were driving back down the mountain, when she gradually began to realize that she should not have had that extra latte.

They were about an hour away from anywhere with a rest room and in the middle of nowhere!

Her companion suggested she try to hold it, which she did for a while.

Unfortunately, because of the heavy snow and slow going, there came a point where she told him that he had better stop and let her go beside the road, or it would be the front seat of his car. They stopped and she quickly crawled out beside the car, yanked her pants down and started.

In the deep snow she didn't have good footing, so she let her butt rest against the rear fender to steady herself.

Her companion stood on the side of the car watching for traffic and indeed was a real gentleman and refrained from peeking. All she could think about was the relief she felt despite the rather embarrassing nature of the situation. Upon finishing however, she soon became aware of another sensation.

As she bent to pull up her pants, the young lady discovered her buttocks were firmly glued against the car's fender.

Thoughts of tongues frozen to poles immediately came to mind as she attempted to disengage her flesh from the icy metal. It was quickly apparent that she had a brand new problem due to the extreme cold.

Horrified by her plight and yet aware of the humor of the moment, she answered her date's concerns about "what is taking so long" with a reply that indeed, she was "freezing her butt off" and in need of some assistance!

He came around the car as she tried to cover herself with her sweater and then, as she looked imploringly into his eyes, he burst out laughing.

She too, got the giggles and when they finally managed to compose themselves, they assessed her dilemma.

Obviously, as hysterical as the situation was, they also were faced with a real problem. Both agreed it would take something hot to free her chilly cheeks from the grip of the icy metal!

Thinking about what had gotten her into the predicament in the first place, both quickly realized that there was only one way to get her free.

So, as she looked the other way, her first-time date proceeded to unzip his pants and pee her butt off the fender. As the audience screamed in laughter, she took the Tonight Show prize hands down. Or perhaps that should be "pants down." And you thought your first date was embarrassing.

Jay Leno's comment... "This gives a whole new meaning to being pissed off.

Oh, and how did the first date turn out? He became her husband and was sitting next to her on the Leno show.
