Men’s Issues - Justice for Men
August 3, 2011 by Walter Schneider.
It is difficult to find a better introduction to the issues addressed in this Facebook album on Justice for Men than the following YouTube video (7 minutes, 37,468 views as of 2011 08 03) http://www.youtube.com/wat
Regardless of whether you are a woman or a man, whether you have or are a husband, father, brother, son, uncle or granddad, you need to watch the video.
From the introduction to the YouTube video: “…Societal forces like chivalry, misandry and the onerous male sex role of provide and protect have been having the unfortunate consequence of obscuring the needs of men. This short video will give you an introductory glimpse of some men’s issues.”
What are men’s issues? Watch this short flash video to get a beginning idea. Societal forces like chivalry, misandry and the onerous male sex role of provide…

Tom Ball’s last statement
June 17, 2011 by Walter Schneider.
International Business Times US
June 17, 2011 11:55 AM EDT
American Father Self-Immolates To Protest Against Family Courts
On June 15 around 5:30 pm, a 58-year-old New Hampshire father named Thomas Ball self-immolated in front of the Cheshire County Court House. Ball was pronounced dead at the scene.
Before he died, he sent a letter [to] The Keene Sentinel to explanation his actions. The full text of the letter can be found here. (Also in PDF format: Tom Ball’s Last Statement; 133 kB)
Ball said he set himself on fire in front of the courthouse because he was “done being bullied for being a man” by the US family court system.
Ball’s troubled started in April 2011.
He said he slapped his then four-year-old daughter, giving her a cut on the lip, when she refused to obey him after three verbal warnings.
His wife then called the child’s mental health provider. Ball claimed the health provider told his wife that if she did not call the police, both she and Ball would be arrested….(Full Story)
_______________
Note by F4L: That article is full of errors.
- Tom Ball’s problems did not start in April 2011. They started in April 2001, when the incident with his daughter occurred and he was arrested for the first time in his life, a Vietnam veteran and 48 years old at the time.
- Tom Ball did say that he was “done being bullied for being a man,” but he did not say that he was being bullied just by the family court system. He did not even single out the family court system, but he felt that his rights were being violated ever since 2001, by the police, mental health providers (not necessarily the mental health provider of the daughter whom he had disciplined, but one for another daughter), the State of New Hampshire, the State Attorney General, the Legislature, the State Governor’s Office, the U.S. Department of Justice, his Congressmen, Senators, the Federal Treasury Department, the Federal Reserve, The U.S. Attorney General’s Task Force on Domestic Violence, the Police department in the nation (at least the 93% of them who are actively engaged in the persecution of men), the police, prosecutors and judges in general, the NH police department, the Jaffrey NH police department, Monadnock Family Services, their lawyer Byron, Judge Sullivan, guardian ad litems, and more, but also the federal government for waging war against men since about 1975 and for running an Office on Violence against Women, even though when the government program for the persecution of men started there were equal numbers of female and male perpetrators of domestic violence.
Tom Ball did his research, and he was no crank. He was a man wronged, wronged like millions of other men (and like some women, as well).
His observations regarding the legal system that put the squeeze on him are right on the mark, and especially his remarks regarding the circumstances, origins and workings of the domestic-violence industry are on target. Still, I should not have to summarize any of the key point that concerned him. He wrote a very lucid statement, but obviously not just on the day he killed himself. That statement is 12 to 15 pages long (depending on the font-size your printer uses). Read it, you will not regret it.
For instance, did you know that 72 million Americans have been made homeless at one time or another during the 25 years or more that the U.S. Government has been waging its war against men and their families? As I said, Tom Ball did his work, and he did it well. Read what he wrote. I included him in the list of men who broke, at Fathers for Life. He broke, alright, but he did not crack. I wish he were still with us.
Tom Ball died for you, for me and for all of our children and grandchildren.

Memorial Day
May 30, 2011 by Walter Schneider.
On the last Monday of May each year is Memorial Day in the U.S.A., a day “to honor all Americans who have died in all wars. … it is a day of remembering the men and women who died while serving in the United States Armed Forces.” (The quote is from Wkipedia) Right, but this video shows that there is much more to the consequences of serving like that.
Purple Heart’s Final Beat - A Soldier Suicide Story (5:38 minutes)
From the video: “70 percent of Iraq veterans return to divorce. Within five years of their return, 90 percent get divorced. Only 1.5 percent get fair treatment from our court system. Most will live the rest of their lives in poverty. Most will be alienated from their children. Countless veterans a month choose this option. I love my country… but my country doesn’t love me….”
- 90 percent of army suicides are menArmy Suicides Up, Prevention Efforts Strengthened
http://www.army.mil/-news/2007/08/16/4459-army-suicides-up-prevention-efforts-strengthened/ - Congress.orgRising military suicides
The pace is faster than combat deaths in Iraq or Afghanistan.
By John DonnellyMore U.S. military personnel have taken their own lives so far in 2009 than have been killed in either the Afghanistan or Iraq wars this year, according to a congressional Quarterly compilation of the latest statistics from the armed services.
As of Tuesday, at least 334 members of the military services have committed suicide in 2009, compared with 297 killed in Afghanistan and 144 who died in Iraq, the figures show….
But even those who have been most intensely focused on the issue said they found the new numbers alarming. So far in 2009, the Army has had 211 of the 334 suicides, while the Navy had 47, the Air Force had 34 and the Marine Corps (active duty only) had 42. (Full Story)
_____________
Note by F4L: The terms “military personnel” and “members of the military services” very nicely smooth things over, so that we can even feel compassion for the women who share the horror of a calamity that kills almost exclusively men. Nevertheless, the numbers mentioned in the article do not identify whether they include veterans. Somehow I doubt that they do, because veterans are not considered to be members of the military services any longer. The problem is in all likelihood far larger than is being let on.

Survived by his wife
September 29, 2010 by Walter Schneider.
If you do not want to read all of this entry, then nevertheless do yourself the favour of getting a good belly-laugh by watching comedian Alan King’s Survived by his wife (thanks to Allan Chinnery for that link).
Last Saturday Ruth and I went to the celebration of her aunt Jenny’s 100th birthday. Aunt Jenny survived her husband by 33 years. He had passed away in 1977, at age 71.
All of that anecdotal evidence would not stand up in a court of law, but the following excerpt from the website of Fathers for Life shows that the anecdotal evidence of women’s longer lives is well supported by objective data from official sources.
(It took me a while to decide to assign this article to the category “Humour”. Still it is funny, and humour is the more funny the more it relates to the truth. There is a lot of truth in this story, so you may as well read the rest of the truth relating to this. Maybe you, too, will find it to be at least somewhat funny that men die so much sooner than women, yet women are considered to be victims in need of protection. That is worth having a laugh over, isn’t it?)
Differences in the life expectancies of the sexes in various countries in the world
This page contains statistics on the life expectancies of the sexes in various countries in the world. The statistics shown on this page are a bit dated, from the late 1990s, if I remember right, but I am getting a little tired and will not update them with more recent data. You can perform that little exercise by yourself and will find that the gender-gap in the life-expectancies of the sexes has widened a little more since that time.
Certainly, life expectancies since then increased for both men and women, but more so for women. So what is the problem with that? There is not much of a problem, at least not one that men complain about. After all, who can argue with the truth? The truth will set us free, as the saying goes, but when the truth is inconvenient, it could become a problem, such as when the shorter average life-expectancies of men in the majority of the nations in the world must be presented in such a way as to show that men’s earlier deaths are a serious inconvenience to women’s quality of life when women reach the end of their days.
That is a truth, too, that from that perspective must be presented as a serious impediment to women’s happiness, such as in Women: Victims of Men’s Shorter Life Span (off-site). Of course, rather than to look at this from such a biased but politically-correct perspective, one could look at the gender-gap in the life-expectancies of the sexes in a more objective fashion and simply state that the gender-gap exists, and that it favours women. As comedian Alan King showed in 1987, in Survived by his wife, the truth about the gender-gap in life-expectancies can be made to look very funny, even hilarious (what could be a better reason for making a joke than to make fun of death?). Still, as Alan King illustrated in his presentation, telling the truth and nothing but the truth about such matters is likely to have the consequence that an elected official calls the truth-teller a male, chauvinist pig. That is a good thing, too, as thereby any possible complaints by men about having to die so much sooner than women can be nipped in the bud.
With the exception of seven countries (Nepal, Bangladesh, Malawi, Niger, Namibia, Bhutan and Afghanistan), in all other countries listed in Table B women live longer than do men, in some countries by a considerable margin.
________________________
Life Expectancy is not the only measure of quality of life. The UN has since 1990 annually published a Human Development Index that ranks countries’ quality of life by a combination of indicators, such as life expectancy, availability of schooling (but not the quality of schooling), the GDP, availability of health care (but not the quality of health care) and more. The UN Human Development Index has shortcomings that have been addressed by the Fraser Institute in a more realistic alternative to the UN Human Development Index.An additional indicator that should be used by the UN as well as by the Fraser Institute to measure the quality of life in a given nation is a measure of how happy people in a nation are with the quality of lives. Suicide rates are a very good indicator that can be be used for that. It surely can be no accident that the rankings of nations according to life-expectancies very closely matches that according to suicide rates.
By both of these measures, life expectancies as well as suicide rates, men’s lives are almost exclusively in all nations far worse than those of women’s.
The average of the differences in life expectancies for the sexes in the countries listed in Table B is 5.09 years (by which the life expectancy of men is less than that of the women in a given country). Turkey is the country in which the difference in the life expectancies of the sexes is closest to the average of all countries.
Russia leads the list with the greatest difference in the life expectancies of the sexes (12.89 years less for men), followed almost exclusively by formerly communist countries — countries in which affirmative action for women made the largest advances for the longest intervals.
Afghanistan is the country that has the largest difference in favour of the average life expectancy of men over women (one year).
Almost all of the developed nations have differences in the average life expectancies that are on average slightly above the average for all countries. See Table A for details….(See all of the web page)

Fighting for child custody
June 9, 2010 by Walter Schneider.
Time and again I receive requests for help and advice on issues such as those outlined in the following. I replied on average about once or twice each day during the past two weeks to such requests.
I write the advice I provided over and over, time and again. I wrote the articles on how to select a lawyer so as to prevent me from having to write up such advice over and over. The worst thing is that no matter what I write, post or state, extremely few people take any of it to heart.
“Bill” and “Rose” (not their real names) will have 18 to about 25 years of misery and financial hardship ahead of themselves. They are being forced to dig a financial hole for themselves that they will most likely never be able to get out of — and even if they do, they and their kids will be set back for life.
In spite of that, it is not likely that they will do what is necessary. Very few people will look past today. The vast majority of those who read my advice will think it is too much work, give up, stick their heads in the sand and then get their butts shot off. The good thing about that is that, with their heads in the sand, they will never see it coming.
Excuse my pessimism, but I am 74-years old now and have seen too much of the same thing happening, over and over.
Do you think I am wrong about it all? Well, the website of Fathers for Life has been in existence for about 20 years. How come that people like Bill and Rose never visited the website until they ran into trouble?
How come that the stuff I am writing about is not being taught in the schools?

Hi there..my friend Bill is newly seperated from his girlfriend…upon seperating she agreed to week on week off custody. 1 1/2 weeks later as he returned to the apartment from the funeral of his best friend and cousin, he was presented with a lawyers letter stating she would allow him access to the child IF he didnt have him around certain people (who have no criminal record, who have years of experience in childcare, have strong educational backgrounds - one is a psw, the other has numerous diplomas and a degree which included study in psychology, etc as well as years of military service.) These said people were also the same people she depended upon, on many occasions to watch this child for her…while she worked, got groceries, etc etc and she never had a problem with them watching him until they noted suspecious behaviour on her part and told Glen. Both can come up with wonderful letters of recomendation, etc.
He refuses to sign this document, as she is STILL trying to controll him. During the relationship she was controlling and abusive…and neglectful to their son as well.
Since the breakup Bill has had joey for the first whole week (during which these above people watched him while glen was at work..and she even came over to interact with joey during that week while these people had him outside playing…if she was that concerned with the care, why did she leave him there?
She has no denied ALL access of Bill to joey for a little over 3 weeks.
Bill has very little in the way of money to spend on a lawyer..so I have been compiling the documents he needs and filling them out fo rhim as best I can. We heard of a mens group who will help you fight for custody…and then I found this website…I am hoping you can help lead me in the right direction to find help for him, and have this father and son re-united.
In the conversation he had with her tonight..she is now claiming that william isn’t even Bill’s..and became very hostile when he suggested a paternity test be done…
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My response:
From: Walter H. SchneiderTo: Rose
Sent: Tuesday, June 08, 2010 9:08 PM
Subject: Re: fighting for custody
Hello Rose,
If you tell me where you are located, I may be able to direct you to an organization near you.
Regards,
Walter
Rose responded:
Sorry I Should have insluded that. We are located in Fredericton New Brunswick.
I responded:
Rose,
The “you” in the following refers to you and Bill.
There are two organizations in New Brunswick whom you should try to contact:
New Brunswick Children’s Equal Parenting Association
New Brunswick Shared Parenting Association
Ask both of them for advice. If either one of them has meetings of its membership, you should try to attend. You will learn more from individuals who are at various stages of their legal fights than you can from any lawyer.
The website of Fathers for Life and its associated blog contain a number of articles on how to select a lawyer. Read those articles (some of them are repetitions) and learn what you should do in selecting a lawyer.
I know, you stated that Bill has little money. It is up to you to determine whether Bill qualifies for Legal Aid. If so, let him apply (and keep in mind that if she applies before Bill does, Bill will not be given Legal Aid — Legal Aid will not present both sides in a case). If not, consider what the alternatives are. Bill will potentially be forced to hand over about $250,000 to $500,000 in child support over the years, until the boy is mature or until he has finished his education, whichever comes later.
Denial of access or visitation needs to be assessed with respect to the custody and visitation order. Interference with that order is a criminal offence. However, the number of such offences that were prosecuted and punished in Canada can probably be counted on one hand. I only know about two of them that were. In both of those cases the fathers fighting for their rights went into bankruptcy. Interestingly, neither of those fathers made any headway in court until after they went bankrupt, could no longer afford to pay their lawyers and began to represent themselves. Great stuff, right? Legal victory predicated by financial self-immolation.
You will not gain any legal ground by trying to establish guilt. For one thing, guilt is not punishable, and neither will be anything else be she may have done you don’t like.
Concentrate on what you primarily wish to achieve. That is, regular and equitably-shared parenting, right? Therefore, concentrate on what is best for the child. Make an appearance that you are bending over backwards to please the mother, and that all else is in the best interest of the child. However, make sure that the custody and visitation order contains a statement that specifies that the police must assist Bill if the mother should interfere with the court order. Without that statement it is extremely unlikely that Bill will ever get the police to help him enforce his visitation rights, if that should become necessary.
You will need to file a statement of claim. Keep that as short as possible, about a page to a page-and-a-half. Use reference pointers to any supporting documentation. Attach copies of the documentation and use tabs for each document, with each tab to correspond to the reference identifying the document in the statement of claim.
Learn about the rules of the court. Visit the local law library. Find case law, that is: evidence of judgments in similar cases.
Keep tabs on what your lawyer does. He works for you. You must be quite clear on what you want him to do. Make sure he does the right thing at the right time and at the right place. Keep in mind that the lawyer will get paid whether you win or lose your case.
Try to keep your case out of the family-court system. The family-court system is ostensibly in place to help individuals with family issues. The reality is somewhat different.
The family-court system was put into place for no other reason than to expedite the dissolution of marriages, when the liberation of the divorce laws and the establishment of the principle of “no-fault” divorce created an insurmountable backlog of divorce applications. (Read more: Freedom, Equality, and Society’s Treatment of Men and Families )
A secondary result that evolved over the close to 40-years time of the family-court system’s existence was that family courts evolved into a system for putting men and especially fathers into their place, which place, according to feminist doctrine, is for fathers to be without and not within families. That is being accomplished by having the rules of the court and the rules of evidence no longer apply in family court. (Read more: Family court to men - ‘Just shut up and pay’; Bias and injustice in our family court system the root cause of many murder- suicides; Note: you can find much more information on family-court issues by searching the website of Fathers for Life for “family court”. )
The best thing you can do to help Bill is to bring Bill’s case into regular court, were his chance to receive justice according to the law will be considerably better. However, the chances that Bill will gain anything are slim, about one in ten. Bill most likely will at best only obtain standard visitation (one weekend every two weeks, plus half of vacation and one out of every two holidays).
In general, the only thing that Bill can be sure about is that he will be sentenced to pay for having become a father, that and that he will be ordered to pay out hundreds of thousands of dollars over the years.
Here now is the most important aspect of Bill’s whole case.
It is of course possible that Bill is the natural father of the young boy, but if I were in your position, I would make absolutely sure that the boy is Bill’s biological offspring. The chances are on average one against two that the boy is not Bill’s child.
If Bill’s paternity has been established on the basis of DNA paternity testing, then it is reasonable for Bill to fight for regular access to the boy or perhaps even for fully shared custody. Without proof of paternity, Bill should refuse to pay child support, and he should not bother to attempt to obtain visitation rights. (See also: Pregnant on the Sly; Table of Contents — Paternity Fraud) Mind you, once there is a court order that sentences Bill to pay child support, then there is not much he can do (other than to try to have the court order overturned) than to pay, or else he will be breaking the law.
Regards,
Walter

Muslim Grannie: Jihadi By Day Rape Coordinator by Night
from MND: Your Daily Dose of Counter-Theory by Warner Todd Huston
-By Warner Todd Huston
Folks, this is the kind of sickness we are facing with the world wide Jihadi assault on civilization. Here we have the heartwarming story of kindly grandma Um al-Mumenin. She’s just the local little old lady that all the kiddies love, that’s all. She bakes cookies, loves the kids and instructs all the local young ladies on the fine art of suicide bombing. Yep, she’s an all around community organizer, she is. But, before she takes up the important instruction of all those girls eager for martyrdom, she arranges to have them raped so that later when she recruits them they are mentally “prepared” to feel that suicide bombing is the only way to regain their lost “honor.”
Ain’t she just the cutest lil’ ol’ thing?…(Full Story)

Note found with 4 dead in Whitehall
Dad may have given reasons for possible murder-suicide
By Elizabeth Gibson
Police found a suicide note that appeared to be written by the father of the Whitehall family of four that officers found shot to death Wednesday afternoon, Whitehall Sgt. Daniel Kelso said yesterday….(Full Story)
_____________
F4L: The article states:
About two-thirds of men who kill their children and themselves take their spouses’ lives as well, whereas women who kill their children seldom murder their husbands before committing suicide, according to the study.
Those are useless, and worse, misleading statistics. “Seldom” is a fuzzy dimension, while “about two-thirds” is not. However, far more important statistics are not mentioned:
- Men in the USA commit suidice more than four times as often as women do (USA Suicide Deaths 1979 - 1996)
- “…a divorced father is ten times more likely to commit suicide than a divorced mother, and three times more likely to commit suicide than a married father.” (Distraught Father’s Courthouse Suicide Highlights America’s Male Suicide Epidemic, by Glenn Sacks; San Diego Union-Tribune (1/11/2002)
- There are about 25,000 male and 5,200 female suicide deaths in the USA each year (USA Suicide Deaths 1979 - 1996)
- In 1995, there were about 1,300 homicides of children aged less than one year to 14 years in the USA (National Center for Injury Prevention and Control)
- Mothers commit 70 percent of fatal injuries to children (Child Maltreatment 1999, Fig. 4-3 http://www.calib.com/nccanch/chma99.pdf)
- “Children residing in households with adults unrelated to them were 8 times more likely to die of maltreatment than children in households with 2 biological
parents…. Risk of maltreatment death also was elevated for children residing with step, foster, or adoptive parents…, and in households with other adult relatives present…. Risk of maltreatment death was not increased for children living with only 1 biological parent” (Household Composition and Risk of Fatal Child Maltreatment, by Michael N. Stiffman, MD, MSPH, Bernard Ewigman, MD, MSPH, Patricia Adam, MD, MSPH, Robin Kruse, PhD, and Darla Horman MS; 2002 Full Article)
Going by all of that, it follows that:
- Only an extremely small fraction of men or women who commit suicide will also kill other family members, such as their children.
- The majority of children killed in families are being killed by their mothers.
- Of the children in families who are being killed by someone other than their mothers, very few are being killed by their natural fathers. Far fewer of those children are being killed by a natural father who also committed suicide.
- Women who kill their husbands or boyfriends seldom kill also their children. The same is also true of men who kill their wives or girlfriends, while such men - if they also kill their natural children - are often given to kill themselves.
- The article in the Columbus Dispatch was out to demonize natural fathers of children.
The latest and exact numbers for all of the statistics used in those conclusions will be somewhat but not essentially different. I do not have enough time to find and present them. Perhaps someone will be so good as to do the work necessary for that. If you do, please post a comment here.

Pre-Thanksgiving Court Ruling Results In Father’s Suicide

JUDGE’S MISCONDUCT RESULTS IN MAN’S DEATH
Fulton Superior Court Judge Bensonnetta Tipton Lane ’s
Pre-Thanksgiving Ruling Results In Father’s Suicide
Memorial Protest Rally Planned Friday, December 5th
( Atlanta , Georgia December 3, 2008 ) On Sunday, November 30th, following a three-year divorce and custody battle played out in a Fulton County Superior Court, Alpharetta, Georgia resident Gregory Eisenhauer committed suicide after he received a ruling from family court judge Bensonnetta Tipton Lane one day before Thanksgiving essentially stripping Eisenhauer of any decision-making authority for his three young children.
The case of Gregory Eisenhauer v. Anne Marie R. Eisenhauer was filed in February 2006. When Eisenhauer informed his wife of his plans to file divorce litigation, Anne Marie Eisenhauer filed ex parte charges against her husband for family violence and had him removed from the home, beginning the long and tedious road facing many parents who are victimized by their spouses and subjected to Parent Alienation Syndrome, or P.A.S. After being removed from his home, Eisenhauer’s contact with his children was substantially reduced. Though Eisenhauer suffered diminishing relationships with his children, he faithfully pursued an amicable resolution through litigation before Judge Lane . Despite his efforts, Judge Lane taxed Eisenhauer with the substantial costs of litigation and incredulous hurdles to satisfy the court’s examination of his qualification to serve as the children’s father. Only one day before the Thanksgiving holiday, Judge Lane essentially ultimately stripped Eisenhauer of his role as the father of his children. Sadly, Eisenhauer committed suicide days later.
The least seasoned human resource managers are taught to never terminate an employee’s employment during the holidays, such as Thanksgiving or Christmas, or on an individual’s birthday. While Judge Lane ’s authority as a superior court judge is not in question, her inconsiderate and unconscionable misconduct by issuing a ruling disassembling a family the day before Thanksgiving is. Despite her 22 years of judicial service, serving as a Fulton County Superior Court judge for 13 of those years, Judge Lane’s conduct was, at most, wanton and intentional, or in the very least, an example of extremely poor judgment. Judge Lane’s misconduct undoubtedly contributed to the stress Eisenhauer faced while watching his family be torn apart by an unjust judicial system.
Mr. Eisenhauer was an educated man and seasoned business professional, employed in the pharmaceutical industry and rising to the level of Chief Financial Officer. His three small children have now lost a father due to the miscarriage of justice suffered behind the closed doors of Georgia ’s family courts. Judicial and Child Welfare Reform activists, many of whom have suffered similar miscarriages of justice in Georgian courtrooms, understood Eisenhauer’s plight and offered him their support.
A MEMORIAL PROTEST RALLY IN TRIBUTE TO GREGORY EISENHAUER has been organized by a group of Judicial and Child Welfare Reform activists to raise public awareness concerning tragedies, such as Eisenhauer’s death, and the unbalanced judicial system many parents have or will face in divorce and custody disputes. The Rally will take place on Friday, December 5, 2008, beginning at 8:00 a.m. at the Fulton County Courthouse, located at 185 Central Avenue, Atlanta, Georgia.

Why we need a men’s movement
September 22, 2008 by Walter Schneider.
Angry Harry put up links to excellent videos at his website. You need to see those. (The first items listed at the top of the home page.)
- The first video, “Why we need a men’s movement”, and its related short video clips, address the consequences of years and decades of discrimination against men.
- The second set of videos is about the causes of discrimination against men. Those are ten free segments of a full documentary (available for sale on a CD by indoctrinate-u.com) that relate to the abrogation of academic freedom, but also illuminate many other issues, such as the lack of men’s studies programs, while women’s studies programs abound.
Both sets of videos are specific to the US. However, anyone who has been following the evolution of feminist social engineering can affirm that the all-out promotion of women’s programs only and the loss of academic freedom are generic and universal problems that affect primarily all developed nations.
