• No Bullies
    Hearing about another small child (Joel Morales) here in NY City - hanging himself due to the bullying of fellow students was heart wrenching. (And while I find the poor parenting that "allows" a child to treat another so poorly reprehensible.) I think a more positive approach would be to get Politicians, Pro-Athletes, Movie Stars (the new Spider Man was bullied) to all wear (bright blue - the color of a blue sky) - T-shirts, or hats, or post on their Twitter Feeds etc. - the phrase: "No Bullies" on a single day every year. For the President, Mayor Bloomberg, etc. - to make a National "No Bullies!" day. And for it to be celebrated in all schools. Shame these boys and girls who think this type of abuse is acceptable. Make them conformists and hypocrites at the least. Make their parents think about something other than themselves at least one day a year. In the same country where we can cheer the you-tube video of (Matt) running around a school field 2 times, a small boy in NYC hung himself because he saw no hope! We the adults are who should be ashamed and stand up and do something!

  • COVERUP Of Abuses On Patients At Chester MHC, STILL Exist!
    My brother(David P.), a patient at Chester MHC, now for OVER 15 years, is STILL being accused and punished with psychotropic drugs, because of guards and others, ILL behavior. His VIDEO conference, was cancelled, supposedly because the video equipment was broken at Elgin mental hospital. It's supposed to be fixed now, but now, the problem supposedly is, that the 'treatment' team, has to get THEIR schedule in order/coincide with eachothers work schdeule. My brother(since he had a date already scheduled), should be the FIRST, to have his VIDEO conference, but we're concerned that more intentionaly DELAYS are in existance, because we(his family), will NOT allow CMHC, to munipulate us into beliving this time is so needed, when we know that CMHC and this 'treatment' team, is extremely vindictive/retaliatory, concerning families who won't be intimidated by them! ALSO, if you will, please inform any 'HUman Rights' atty., of my number(773-622-2906), for we are STILL seeking counsel to represent him, in a law suit, against CMHC, for the YEARS of ABUSES(including rape) against him. I have, IN MY POSSESSION, MANY medical records/photos of injuries (no fault of his, but by MAINLY guards and a few of the violent inmate/patients), that we have filed complaints against, only for DHS, EFE and the CMHCa dmins., has labeled as 'UNFOUNDED", which can NOT be, because of the injuries he has sustained, because he DEFENDED himself from assaults. We have learned that a few of the culprits, has either 'retired', (which do NOT stop a law suit, as it didn't stop anything concerning JON BURGE) and some are STILL employed by the state of ILLINOIS, at Chester MHC!. PLEASE SEND HELP, is the SAME message (rodenyyoder.com) sent before he was released in '2005' and we are sending the SAME message, for our David.

  • Tell Luzerne County GOP to Disavow its Racist Committeeman
    This week the Southern Poverty Law Center revealed that Steve Smith, a longtime racist activist with a history of violence and top-level ties to numerous white nationalist hate groups, was elected to the Luzerne County (PA) Republican Committee. To date, the GOP has not condemned his views or tried to distance itself from him in any way. Recruited into the neo-Nazi movement while he was stationed at Fort Bragg in the 1990s, Smith, of Pittston, Penn., has been active in an extraordinary array of white nationalist, skinhead, and neo-Nazi groups, including American Third Position, Keystone United(formerly Keystone State Skinheads), and the Council of Conservative Citizens. He is a former Aryan Nations member and former leader of the Philadelphia chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of White People. While the GOP may not be able to legally remove him, if they don't support his racist views, they should tell the world that they find his views repugnant.

  • Stop Republican voter purge!
    In 2000 Florida's Republican governor and secretary of state quietly instituted a voter purge that removed over 13,000 eligible voters from the rolls. These were mostly young and minority voters who usually voted Democratic. Bush won the state, and the presidency, with a little over 500 votes. Had these eligible voters not been prevented from voting, Gore would have won and we would probably have not lost thousands in a useless war.
