Luek writes "http://www.juryduty.org/JuryDuty.htm
One of the reasons men are oppressed under misandric laws is that these laws have never really been subjected to the process of passing muster in jury trials where jury nullification could stop the abuse.
The link above has details on just how jury nullification works and most important tells how to avoid getting tossed out of the potential jury pool due to your beliefs.
Men in the movement have to be prepared to take advantage of the opportunity to use jury nullification to stop judicial misandry when and if they ever are called for jury duty on cases like marital rape, violations under the VAWA, workplace sexual harassment and so forth."

Luek writes " This is a story of a father whose baby daughter was killed by her mentally deranged mother after he filed a warning with Child Protective Services stating his daughter was in grave danger being in custody of the mother.
He is suing the CPS and one of the points in his lawsuit is that he was virtually ignored by the apparatchiks in CPS because he is a male. Let's hope he wins big!"

Stephen Baskerville does great work. It should be read and passed around. I believe the Courts are already in Disrepute, they are just unwilling to admit it yet. Read Here.

"She wrote in July, 2002, [in] her long-running correspondence with an imprisoned rapist and certified dangerous offender. "My limits? I don't really know," … But no, I don't think I'd want to witness a slaying. Torture maybe!" … "I don't want her dead. I want her alive to live with the pain and suffering."
IMHO statistics on spousal abuse are junk science in pristine form."

Code Monkey writes "I found this article in the Portland, Maine Press-Herald to be similar to a lot on the topic of men's declining enrollment in higher education. The article acknowledges that women are getting degrees at a much higher rate than men, that this gender gap is continually increasing, but makes excuses for the disparity that tries to downlplay the significance of this issue. For example, claiming that "women need college degrees just to get jobs that pay as much as the jobs men get straight out of high school", and focusing on the oh-so-urgent issue that women won't be able to find enough "qualified" men to marry. The article even refers to Boston Globe's leading male-bashing columnist, Ellen Goodman. You can send respones to the editor at letters@pressherald.com."

I never thought I would write those words in my life, but it seems that when it comes to Warren Farrell's campaign feminists have suddenly become unusually silent. Now I'm not sure what the medical reason is for this, (I'm guessing an outbreak of laryngitis), but as we all know if the feminists were healthy they'd be protesting up a storm. So it occured to me that men's activists, being the kind and helpful people we are, might want to complain about Farrell's campaign for them. See this week's challenge for details.

Over the last 20 years, the number of women in prison has jumped from 4.3% of the total US prison population to 6.8%. The list of reasons includes gender-blind sentencing, but it appears as if the spokeswoman for the recently created National Workshop on Adult and Juvenile Female Offenders plans to stress harsher drug laws as the reason. See Press Herald article here.
Considering that men are far more likely than women to be locked up, (rather than sent to treatment), for drugs and that even with the gender-blind sentencing guidelines men in the US still recieve an average sentence length twice that of women regardless of the severity of the crime see DOJ statistics, (table 5-5), methinks this is yet another attempt to pretend female criminals really aren't criminals.
