New Threat to Civil Liberites In Maryland

fightbigotry2002 writes "Maryland bills HB 668 and SB 273 two bills before the Maryland legislature.

http://mlis.state.md.us/2003rs/billfile/sb0273.htm and Senate Bill 273

What this means is that someone no longer needs to go before the court to have someone taken against their will for a mental observation request, no hearing. The potential for false accusations are enormous when added to the ease in which a petition is already made and accepted.

I had a friend whose ex-wife, pulled that stunt on him several years ago, he was forced to into a holding pen with other people, stripped naked and kept that way for a week. After the week was over, they told him he was in good physical health and sent him on his way.

Junior College Calls Men Tyrannical

jeremyrainman writes "The local junior college that I attend, Cerritos Community College in Norwalk California (www.cerritos.edu), is having a few events on Mondays in March in lieu of Womens Month (March). I discovered this by walking into the library and seeing this posted in front of it:

The history of mankind is a history of injuries and usurpations on the part of men towards woman, having direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over her.

---- Declaration of Sentiments, The Seneca Falls Convention

Any suggestions on formal letters of protest are appreciated."

Very Special Guest for Chat This Week

Last week I posted the book by Dr. Felson. Many of you were interested in his book and his comments. I have asked him to guest host a chat this week (Wednesday night 9:30 est) so that some of you can ask him questions. Dr. Felson is a law proffesor and his book discusses issues of 'chivalry' and 'feminism' in the law. I will post his book cover flap again as the first post. Take some time to read it if not again and hopefully you will be able to make the chat. It's these types of books that should be shown to lawyers, judges, police officers and the general public of interest.

Progressive Insurance runs ads showing violence

HombreVIII writes "Last July their ad featured a sexy woman, (the type that girls say "I wanna be like her when I grow up!"), using a webpage to cast voodoo spells on a guy finishing off in grand tradition with a pair of pliers to the genitals. This time at least she leaves the genitals alone, but once again she's smiling contentedly as she uses the voodoo website with the words "Cheating Boyfriend" emblazoned across the top to prick a guy with a pin, burn his foot, and finally shrink his head. Judging by the facial reactions of the girl he's dancing with, another sexy girl, she finds the fact that he's experiencing pain repulsing rather than sympathizing. In light of the fact that this ad was made after recieving the letters MANN readers sent them about the last commercial, under no circumstances will I ever use Progressive insurance."

KKK supports Augusta National Golf Club

napnip writes "Great, just friggin' great. Martha Burk must love this. Notice that she says "It [the Augusta National Golf Club] must expect support of a like-minded group." I predict what Burk and her Burkettes will do is to use this to paint the Augusta members as supporters of the KKK, despite the fact that the Club doesn't want KKK support.
