Boys, 7, punished for playing soldiers after teachers brand making pistol shapes with their fingers 'unacceptable'

Story here. Excerpt:

'Teachers reprimanded two seven-year-old boys for playing army games - because it amounted to 'threatening behaviour'.

The youngsters were disciplined after they were spotted making gun-shapes with their hands.

Staff at Nathaniel Newton Infant School in Nuneaton, Warks., even told the boys' parents to 'reprimand' them.

A father of one of the boys said: 'This is ridiculous. How can you tell a seven-year-old boy he cannot play guns and armies with his friends.'

Gingrich Tells F & F Activists, Audience That Family Law System Has an ‘Extreme Anti-Male Bias’

Article here. Excerpt:

'A contingent of Fathers and Families’ Election Campaign 2012 activists attended the Portsmouth, New Hampshire Seacoast Republican Women’s Breakfast with Newt Gingrich on Wednesday. F & F member Deanna Marchand (pictured) asked Gingrich:

Family courts generally allow fit loving fathers only a few days a month with their children. This is not only harmful to children since it’s so important level of involvement by both parents in their lives, but it’s also a terrible civil rights violation when the government dictates how much time a father or mother can spend with his or her children. What are your thoughts on family court reform?

In response, Gingrich criticized the family law system for its “extreme anti-male bias.”

Gingrich added that he was “in favor of fathers having rights…We live in an age that is very different than 50 years ago and I think that it is very often very important…that we have a much greater sensitivity that both sides, both parents, both have rights and have responsibilities…”'

Petition to reject the proposed SaVE Act absent amendments to protect presumed innocence

Petition here. Excerpt:

'To the Members of the United States Congress:

The proposed Campus Sexual Violence Elimination Act (SaVE Act) (S.834) should be rejected unless it is amended to adequately protect the interests of the presumptively innocent who are accused of sexual assault and related offenses.

Although as a scientific matter, the frequency of false complaints of sexual assault and similar offenses to police or institutional authorities varies widely depending on the study and is impossible to state with precision, false reporting of such offenses is a significant problem to a distinct segment of the population.

The goal of holding sexual offenders accountable for their misconduct is one that is universally shared by all civilized people. However, the SaVE Act, in its present form, should be rejected because it unduly enhances the risk of holding innocent persons responsible for such offenses in furtherance of the objective to hold true offenders accountable.'

Judge, jury and executioner

Article here. She claims to have been raped. He claims she was furious that he didn't want to settle down with her. I tend to believe him. And his penis was unable to be reattached. Sickening. Excerpt:

'A woman cut off a man's penis as he allegedly attempted to rape her and took it to a police station as evidence against him.

Monju Begum, 40, attacked the man in Bangladesh after he burst into her shack and reportedly launched his sex attack.

The victim then wrapped up the penis in polythene before handing it over to officers, police said.
...

The married father-of-five is expected to be arrested once he has recovered.
...
Speaking from hospital, Mr Mazi told the BBC he had been having an affair with the woman, who was his neighbour.

'We were having an affair and recently she suggested that both of us can go and settle down in Dhaka,' he said.

'I refused and told her that I cannot leave my wife and children, so she took revenge on me.'

Investigators: Polk deputy tied naked children to desk, beat them with paddle

Story here. Excerpt:

'A Polk County sheriff's deputy filmed herself strapping naked children to a desk and spanking them with sex toys, then sent the videos to a boyfriend she met on a fetish website, investigators said.

On Thursday, 45-year-old Robin Leigh Pagoria was charged with aggravated child abuse, production of child pornography, promotion of child pornography and possession of child pornography.

According to an arrest report, the two children, described only as girls between the ages of 10 and 18, described in graphic detail multiple spanking sessions.

Investigators say Pagoria cut the legs off one end of the desk she used for the spanking. To keep the girls from moving, she handcuffed their arms and tied their ankles to the desk, deputies said.
...
Investigators said they found evidence of two videos on Pagoria's phone. In both, deputies said the victims' genitals and buttocks were the clear "focal point."

Gaddafi snatch squads took hundreds of men and boys from Misrata

Anyone recall Secretary of State Clinton's claim that women have always been the primary victims of war? Read this. Oh, and this, too, then ask yourself just how misinformed/biased one has to be to come to this conclusion. Excerpt:

'The lifting of the siege of the embattled Libyan city of Misrata has revealed the disappearance of hundreds of people with many of them suspected victims of snatch squads loyal to the Gaddafi regime, relatives and rights workers said yesterday.

A desperate search has begun for "the disappeared", many of whom were reported to have been taken away to regime prisons or killed during some of the fiercest fighting of a three-month rebel uprising that has reduced parts of the city to rubble.

Newspaper sorry after its gallery of 'top 10 hottest female sex offenders' causes outrage

Article here. Excerpt:

'A newspaper has been forced to apologise after its list of the 'top 10 hottest sex offenders' caused an outcry.

The Houston Press yesterday published the article featuring who they believed were the 10 'hottest' women in a huge Texas-wide sex offender database.

Alongside the women's mugshots, the online article also listed the women's crimes and the age of their victims - one was as young as two years old.

The tone of the article was jokey and in most cases years old mugshots of the offenders were used.

It suggested readers may want to 'click the link' of the women before sending 'any marriage proposals' suggesting that they might not look quite as 'hot' now.

Unsurprisingly the article triggered a deluge of complaints from readers.'

Crying Rape

Article here. Excerpt:

'People often assume that self-described liberals are more supportive of due process than self-described conservatives. That certainly isn’t the case when we talk about the illiberal bureaucrats who run the United States Department of Education.

The notion that an adult charged with a felony should be put on trial using the same standard of evidence used for someone who has been issued a parking ticket is absurd. In fact, it is more than absurd. It is offensive to well-established principles of due process and fundamental fairness.

Recently, however, the Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights (OCR) has announced new guidelines that will force due process to take a back seat to political correctness. These guidelines will apply to sexual harassment and felony sexual assault cases.

genderfairness.com: "1 in 4 women are sexually assaulted at your college? Didn’t happen at mine."

Article here. Excerpt:

'Koss wanted to find out how extensive rape was in American colleges. Turns out there were not enough so she tried to convince come college women that because they had been drinking and had sex it was rape. Some of those same women kept on drinking with their rapists and being raped. Stupid women? Brutal men? Or just life in the fast lane when you are young?

Unwanted sexual attention is also included with rape to inflate numbers. OK, the nerd made a clumsy pass “You look great in those jeans, want to go out?” Unwanted. The handsome athletic student whose father owns a silver mine says “You look great in those jeans, want to go out?” And she goes. Most unwanted sexual attention is not about rape or sexual assault, just the wrong women at the wrong time with the wrong guy. Hardly a sex crime. And if women can’t deal with that then how will they ever become fire-persons, police persons, and army persons?'

Aspiring rap artist dies after being 'punched for $5 bet'... by 22-year-old woman who now faces charges over his death

Article here. This is posted more as an object lesson: a woman's greatest strength is her veneer of weakness; a man's greatest weakness is his veneer of strength. Anyone who allows himself to be struck by anyone else for any amount of money is playing with fire. I doubt the woman who delivered the fatal blow will see any time from a conviction, given that the person who died was literally asking for it (but if she had been a he and vice versa, well, my prediction would then be different). Excerpt:

'A 22-year-old woman allegedly killed an aspiring rap singer with a single punch for a $5 party bet.

Tiffany Startz is accused of killing John 'Fatboy' Powell with a single blow to the face and has been told she has to stand trial.

The 25-year-old had agreed to be hit in the face by Starr in return for $5.

After being struck and collecting his money he walked away to talk with friends, only to collapse minutes later from a burst artery in his neck.

Man spends 27 years wrongly imprisoned writing songs

Thanks again to the Innocence Project! Story here. Excerpt:

'(CNN) -- Prison-issued toilet paper is what musician William Michael Dillon used to write down most of his songs, including "Black Robes and Lawyers," which has just been released on iTunes.

"I was arrested for murder on August 26, 1981, for a crime I didn't commit," Dillon tells his audience as he starts strumming his guitar. "I was released on November 18, 2008. Thank you to the keepers of justice."

According to Dillon, justice prevailed when he was released from prison after 27 years. He is now on the Innocence Project of Florida's list of 13 prisoners exonerated by DNA evidence.

It was Dillon's life story and not his music that moved Grammy Award winning music producer Jim Tullio to invite Dillon to his Chicago studio to record the songs he wrote in prison.'
