Florida boy accused of assault with rubber band

Clancy writes "13-year-old suspended 10 days after confrontation with teacher.

I guess he didn't have a conceal/carry license. Yes, folks, rubber bands are deadly and they can hurt you really, really bad. Looks like hard time for this hoodlum. Alcatraz is reopening, I hear."

Schwarzenegger Remarks on Women Anger Many

Ray writes "False accusations have long been the forte of California gender feminists, but is California's "Governator" burying his foot in his mouth so deeply, that he is hurting the efforts of men's rights activists in California? During Governor Schwarzenegger's campaign he was alleged by some to have groped certain females, and now some women are accusing him of "bullying women" Schwarzenegger Remarks on Women Anger Many . This men's rights activist can only wonder what legislation biased against males , he will sign next to try to appease the growing hostility of women's groups in California."

Girl: Killed sister over burger / Where's Dad?

ArtflDgr writes "The article can be found here

The article details in short with a 12 year old "tiny terror" that has been charged with killing her sister in a fight over a hamburger.
the detectives note that it must be "devastating to the mother"
Of course there is no mention of dad, and it seems to me that all the children are getting more and more seriously violent at earlier and earlier ages. as the article mentions...."It's a true tragedy""

Dead? That's no excuse not to pay child support.

bandersnatch writes "From Omaha Channel, The state of Nebraska is trying to collect child support from a dead man. This is not child support he owed when he was still alive, but instead, the debt accumulated after he died. The government had intercepted $1,867 of her tax refund to pay her husband's child support. Harriman protested some more, but got nowhere.
Much to Harriman's surprise, that is the law. Nebraska statute 43-513.01 states: "A judgment for child support shall not abate upon the death of the judgment debtor." In other words, a dead man can still owe child support."

MSN on Men, Women, Love, and Depression

MSN has come out with this story. You know, I can't keep up with them. Today women are just fine without love, the next day, without love they are miserable (and the blame is usually placed on men).

Sadly I am quite sure there are people out there who actually take MSN's babblings seriously.

Heart Disease Research Short-Changing Men

Ray writes "Here's a study presented at the 2nd International Conference on Women, Heart Disease and Stroke - Marital stress kills . "Elaine D. Eaker worked with colleagues from Boston University to analyze marital discord and its effects on heart disease and overall mortality." "While the men who kept quiet during a conflict did not suffer harmful health effects, the women did, she found." Whoa Nellie! Could this story be just one more example of advocacy research, propagandized through our feminist controlled news media??? If this story is true, then this fact strikes me as even more amazing - MEN HAVE A 70% GREATER RISK OF DYING OF HEART DISEASE THAN WOMEN . What's going on at the American Heart Association? Is the American Heart Association now spending the money donated to it on an agenda driven by gender feminist ideology, instead of spending that money on an "as needs dictate" basis?"

Sexual Harassment Lawsuit Over Gorilla

Ray writes "Here is a intriguing episode of "animal sexuality" that borders on the bizzare, Women Allege Monkey Business Caring for Gorilla
. I know at times we primates have all been treated like a monkey's uncle, but can a gorilla really use sign language to say, "Koko's your daddy???" Keep abreast with all the news that's fit to report, and some that isn't, or you too could wind up on the short end of the long arm of sexual harassment law. Once again the poor, lonely male, who was already behind bars this time, was just hoping for a little bonding with the opposite sex, albeit cross speices. I suspect diversity training will take on an all new meaing for Zoo administrators across America after this episode, and Koko will need to be re-educated in the politically correct use of sign language."

Ed. note: Koko is in fact a female gorilla (see this page). The person being sued, Dr. Patterson, is also female.

Women denied bail in fatal stabbing

CJ writes "Story here.

Quotes:

'Two young women charged with the fatal stabbing of a 19-year-old woman were denied bail a second time. They stabbed the victim several times in the throat and stomach with broken beer bottles and steak knives. The confrontation apparently stemmed from an argument over a boyfriend. In MA, judges routinely deny men bail on simple charges alone if related to DV - it is rare for women to get denied bail unless the case is extreme like this one.'"
