Fred Lane's wife pleads guilty to manslaughter

Doug writes "As per this story that just broke, the wife of former Carolina Panthers running back Fred Lane has plead guilty to killing him. Apparently she was trying to cash in on a 5-million dollar life insurance policy. It's interesting to note that her defense was centered around allegations of abuse by her husband, but she was still convincted."

Online Petitions

LeMorteMark writes "While politicians are not legally required to look at online petitions it would be my guess that some do.

Here is a link to a petition of male interest. http://www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction/10401765 6

Also does anyone know of a political party devoted to mens issues?"

Is School House Rock Anti-Male?

amperro writes "Remember the educational cartoon School House Rock? The one titled "Unpack Your Adjectives" goes like this:

"Girls who are tall can get taller," (Girl grows)
"Boys who are small can get smaller," (Boy shrinks)
"Till one is the tallest" (Girl becomes giant while boy gets tiny)
"And the other's the smallest of all." (Girl CRUSHES BOY WITH FOOT).

We even teach children that violence against males is acceptable!"

NH Men's Commission Nominees Confirmed

The New Hampshire Commission on the Status of Men has been plagued by delays and problems for more than a year now. Finally, NH Governor Craig Benson has made two solid nominations for the commission and on Wednesday, they were confirmed by the Executive Council. Attorney Gerry Boyle from Plymouth, NH and Mike Geanoulis from Newcastle, NH are now officially members of the commission. Mr. Geanoulis is also president of the NH Chapter of NCFC and has led much of the activism in NH for men's and father's rights. This is definitely something to cheer about!

The Onion does it again

This is too funny to describe, the title is enough to make you laugh out loud. Go on, have a read. To make things even funnier, just remind yourselves of all those feminist comments about DV.

CPS CONGRESSIONAL INQUIRY

This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to show the utter destruction the state has imposed on families.

Please post this to any and all boards, forums, etc. so people can be informed and attend to give testimony in regard to the travesties and destruction of CPS.

If the congressional Panel will listen and take the testimonies given I do believe that this can be the beginning of a Nation wide Sweep of CPS and DHS to enact changes that our families so despirately need.

Thanks,

Two "conservatives" on rape shield laws

Well well, if there's one thing two certain groups love, it's attacking the nearest man through his kids or sexuality, and in
these two cases, it's the latter. As Maggie Gallagher asks
Should rape
shields hold?
And Kathleen Parker says Naming rape victims may liberate the rapist I hope you notice
how feminists put women first if it comes to a throwdown between the nearst man and woman, and how "conservatives" do the same thing. And also the fact that the paternalism they want is dependant on the
very men it will harm. In closing, I would just like to add that with the spread of information they can't hide any longer. They're dependant on our consent to do this to us, and that being modern men, saying no is a moral imperative.

Older Women - Become Lesbians!

Dittohd writes " Women are coming to the conclusion that they are no longer attractive to men at older ages, plus men don't live as long as women, so what's the solution? Become lesbians! Notice that no mention is made as to possibly discerning why they are not attractive to men, how they could make themselves more attractive to men, or possibly support research to solve the problem of men dying earlier. Noooooooo! Become lesbians!

Father's For Life

This has to be one of the most extensive web sites I have seen in regards to men's issues. It is solid with facts, facts, facts. I must warn you that there is a musical theme on the web page that plays for a few minuts, so if you have any other programs going or your stereo is on, be forwarned. This website has to be a five star site that is enourmous with information and useable citations. FATHERS FOR LIFE
