The U.S. has become mechanical, inhumane and unconstitutional. |
Like so much of the U.S. today,
The Bradley_Amendment is mechanical, inhumane and unconstitutional.
I recently rewrote the Wiki_Pedia page I created on that topic,
http://en.WikiPedia.ORG/wiki/Bradley_Amendment
Wiki_Pedia is a heavily moderated forum, one of the few I tolerate.
Re: U.S. high schools who refuse to teach evolution and the big bang,
It has occured to me that, when zoomed out enough, we look like ants,
yet, when sufficiently zoomed in, we seem omniscient and omipotent.
So high schools are simply disallowing the zoomed_out view.
Through no choice of his own, each is born.
Through no choice of his own, each dies.
The only so_called choice is how fast one should dissipate.
Like stars, the only thing anyone has ever done was dissipate into the night.
Sure, Einstein's ideas are still with us today,
but only a fool would assign the glory to him and him alone,
physical processes determine absolutely everything... not Einstein.

Jeff,
This is utterly ridiculous!
A veteran of the first Gulf War who was captured in Kuwait in 1990 and
spent nearly five months as an Iraqi hostage being arrested the night
after his release for not paying child support while he was a hostage.
I don't have much respect left for the court system anyhow, but
this is totally insane.

The court system wasn't involved in any way,
past-due child support automatically triggers a non expiring lien,
an administrative lien. You can thank congress for that.
Despite it's supposed constitution,
the U.S. government has become ever more automated,
devoid of humanity and human involvement.

Like we can do anything about it. We supposedly have a Democratic
Republic, whereby we elect people to represent our interests in
government, only they don't. NONE of them. They support the monied
special interests, an eventuality that our Founding Fathers never
foresaw. They were smart men, but they weren't omnisient and they didn't
allow for the rampant greed and avarice that has usurped all levels of
modern society. In this day an age, I don't know of any form of
government that would actually "work" short of benevolent
totalitarianism. And history has shown us how long benevolent tyranny
keeps the "benevolent" part before that goes by the boards as well.
As to our system of jurisprudence, O.J. Simpson, Scott Petersen, and
Robert Blake have shown how well that works.

Surely you mean OJ, Robert Blake, and Phil Spector. And whatsisface
DuPont a few years ago. If you have a lot of money in the US you can
kill a first time, pretty much with impunity. Scott Peterson's main
problem is that he was low class, and that's always been the one and
only true crime in the US. I don't know if he was guilty or not, but it
seemed to me the case against him was weaker than for any of the rich
guys mentioned.
I don't think we've put a rich guy to death for murder in the entire
history of the United States of America. And not because rich people
haven't been shooting people the whole while. Rather, because we see an
occasional shooting as sort of the prerogative of the monied class.
In a strange way, it's a lot like Iraq. If we have a lot of stuff and
they don't, why then shooting them is not a moral problem. There must
be SOME reason why they deserve it. Look, they're shooting back! By
jove, that must be it. Resistance to authority.

Yes, that's my point. If you study the trial in any detail at all, you
will notice that the State failed to connect Peterson with his wife's
demise in any way shape or form. While there's little doubt that
Peterson "done" her, the testimony/evidence presented to the jury did
not prove it at all, much less beyond a reasonable doubt. Yet they
convicted him the same way the rest of the country convicted him by a
sly wink, and "Yep, he did it all right."
Frankly, I don't really care one way or the other about Scott Peterson.
What I do care about is the justice system. See, one never knows when,
by act of fate, or by our actions, that any one of us might find
ourselves engaged with that system, and if that happens, I'd like to
think that justice will be done. The system, they way it operated in the
case of these famous trials, simply did not work. Simpson should have
been convicted, as should Blake. And while Peterson surely killed his
wife and child, the onus was upon the prosecution to prove that, and
they did not.
I don't think we've put a rich guy to death for murder in the entire
history of the United States of America. And not because rich people

No, it's not the prerogative of the monied class. What it is is a
condemnation of a legal system which dispenses justice by the dollar
rather than the law.

What a simpleton you are.
Given a sufficiently complex system, such as justice, one can never predict
or manage the outcome.
The last 30 years of math proved this.

Totally a circumstancial case.
You do realize that people have been convicted of murder without a body?
http://www.crimelibrary.com/notorious_murders/women/kimes/1.html
Scott just happens to go fishing where Lacee's body turns up?
Doesn't have the correct tackle, didn't even know what kind of fish he was
going for?
Tide maps printed out on his computer?
Christmas eve he chooses to go fishing alone?
Then we have OJ, where Ron Goldman's blood was found in OJ's Bronco, yet
he walked.....
The problem in that case was the jury's total combined IQ was about 80 and
the state's dry, fact based case went right over their somewhat very dense skulls.
The states summation was so boring I was falling asleep listening to it.
Full of facts, but boring.
O'J had animated lawyers that appealed, in more ways than one, to the
moronic jury.
A famous judge told me this once, if you are guilty you want to pick the
dumbest jury pool you can possibly find.
O'J's lawyers did a class a job.
Then of course we have Robert Blake.......
Need anyone say more?
These words mean a lot:
Beyond a reasonable doubt.
Unfortunately that phrase convicts some who are innocent and acquits some
who are guilty.
If I ever murder anyone, I want my trial in CA.

The left is ruled and rules in this manner.
The Democratic party has been hijacked

Hi Nick, Re: Your claim that the government

I don't think it's quite so intentional,
it's just the stupidity of the congressional machine,
which is entirely oblivious to the plight of certain fathers.
This link shows how many fathers are deprived of All judicial recourse:
http://en.WikiPedia.ORG/wiki/Bradley_Amendment
The U.S. today is a machine, totally oblivious to many such people.
Girls today can always get sperm from an innocent,

will Automatically be assigned liens for the rest of his life.

It mentions:
"Did not know they could not ask for retroactive adjustments and waited too

Meaning that the fees can be retro-actively reduced.

Hi John_Bailo, Re: http://en.WikiPedia.ORG/wiki/Bradley_Amendment
You asked me: Did you read this article ?
I created that page, and most of it was written by me,
the rest I simply approved of.
You incorrectly claimed it says:
Did not know they could not ask for retroactive adjustments
and waited too long.
Meaning that the fees can be retro-actively reduced.
The law Automatically makes past-due child support a non-expiring,
non-reducible lien, irregardless of Anything .
That is explained about ten different ways in the article,
I don't know how you could've missed it... I suggest you learn to read.
You told me:
I don't know what state this was set up in, but if it was Washington,
I challenge you to contact DSHS
and request the actual dollar value you owe

That would give them a good laugh.
First, because it cannot be reduced retroactively,
and, secondly, they have no case on me.
Typically, cases are closed after four years of inactivity.
Open or closed, past-due child support automatically triggers
a non expiring lien.

Where the law Automatically makes past-due child support a non-expiring,
non-reducible lien, irregardless of Anything ,
You asked me: How can you both be able to " retro-actively reduce fees "
and yet have them be " non-reduceable ".
Where, exactly, on that page does it say fees can be retroactively reduced ?
Re: Calling Utah's revenue collection agency, not Washington's DSHS,
I already did that, a long time ago, they told me two things:
1. My case was closed, blank.
2. They knew nothing about the Bradley_Amendment.
But my ex does not need the state's collection agency to enforce
what is, quite strongly, a valid, non_expiring, non_reducible lien.
You asked me: Do you pay any taxes ?
Do you register your business with Seattle or Washington ?
Does your employer file a 1099 for your services ?
Is so, why haven't they come after you ?
Utah's revenue collection agency won't come after me
because my case is closed.
The lien belongs to my ex, not the state, not the adult kids,
all the same, it's still very enforceable.
She doesn't come after me because she knows my income is too low.
Working only a few hours per year, as I do,
and providing services to the general public, as I do,
I'm merely a vendor, no 1099 is required.
I have no business license, but I'm way too small to concern the state.

So, there's still a gap in this logic.
(1) You claim that money is bad.
(2) Your ex-wife put you in a situation where unless you earn lots and lots
of money, its not in your interest to earn an average amount of money.
(3) Therefore, you earn minimum money.
Which, according to (1) means that you are the beneficiary of the Brady Act
because it keeps you poor and therefore makes you happier.
So, then you should be a fan of the act, not a detractor.

Playing it now. Very good -- I think JH would have liked this

About two weeks ago, I visited the Jimi Hendrix grave/memorial in Renton
after work.
It's located in the middle of a Vietnamese Ceremony.
http://www.jimihendrixmemorial.com/
It's a stone rotunda with JH's grave in the center. Outside the rotunda
are members of the hendrix family. His famous signature is carved rigth
in front of it. It's very new, but already pilgrims have come to grafitti
it and leave /tokens/.
There was no one there; and it was down a side street where I don't think
people would normally go, near Renton Technical College. I thought: does

Yes, I am glad they are showing the Legaltorrents stuff.
But in my mind everything they are doing, with regard to tv shows, is
perfectly legal. That is how cable operators got their start. They
could take the broadcast signal and put it on a cable without charge
because it was transmitted on the public airwaves (US law).
Anything broadcast on the public airwaves can be 'rebroadcast' if it
doesn't involve commercial gain from the sale. I can videotape a show,
and loan it to you. If I fail to tape the commercials, so be it.
Their site says:
"The TorrentChannel have now moved to a country where perfectly legal
sites like this can not be closed by threats of expensive lawsuits. This
site has never contained anything but files with hash codes and links
spidered from the Internet and never broke or violated any US law when
it was hosted in the USA."
Now if only I could find their "norway site".

You told me:
Playing it now. Very good -- I think JH would have liked this mix
...especially given his direction in jazz-rock just before his death.
About two weeks ago,
I visited the Jimi Hendrix grave/memorial in Renton after work.
It's located in the middle of a Vietnamese Ceremony.
http://www.jimihendrixmemorial.com/
It's a stone rotunda with JH's grave in the center. Outside the rotunda
are members of the hendrix family. His famous signature is carved rigth
in front of it. It's very new, but already pilgrims have come to grafitti
it and leave tokens.
There was no one there; and it was down a side street
where I don't think people would normally go, near Renton Technical College.
I thought: Does anyone in a square mile know this is here
...and how important this person is ?
Yea, Jimi represents a real turning point in the U.S. psyche.
1970 in Seattle is when my dad forever left the corporate world,
never again to return.
After working for Boeing for 11 years,
they laid him off at age 45 with a wife and 6 kids to house and feed.

Hi John_Bailo, Re: The Bradley_Amendment,
http://en.WikiPedia.ORG/wiki/Bradley_Amendment
You told me:
1. You claim that money is bad.
2. Your ex-wife put you in a situation where
unless you earn lots and lots of money,
it's not in your interest to earn an average amount of money.
3. Therefore, you earn minimum money.
Which, according to 1 means that
you are the beneficiary of the Bradley_Amendment
because it keeps you poor and therefore makes you happier.
So, then you should be a fan of the Bradley_Amendment, not a detractor.
The Bradley_Amendment is unconstitutional, plain and simple.
I oppose it because it strips all human involvement from the process,
using, instead, an exceptionally retarded machine.
If it stopped girls from having more kids, I might understand,
but it doesn't even do that.
All the same, I'm glad for what it taught me about money and the U.S.
Money given to me represents what others think of me,
and I've never cared about that,
knowing full well that others know little about me, or anything else.
Nirvana, happiness, comes when you stop chasing after such tomfoolery.
As I said, mental health is everything, money is nothing.

Hi Rick, Re: This comment of mine:

How many times do I need to remind you that
I've had a vasectomy since late 1990... 15 years ago ?

Hi Uncle_Al, You told me:
God, I'm a deluded braggart, I just can't help myself.
Fact is, I've been impotent ever since my wife started dating the paperboy.
Fortunately, the junkers I keep in the front yard scares most suitors away.
Oh, tough one, Al, I hope things get better for you real soon.

How many time do you have to be told guys, or girls, can say no. If they
say yes, they are responsible for their actions.

Hi Rick, Re: Your Just_Say_No approach to wanton procreation,
You told me:
How many time do you have to be told guys, or girls, can say no.
If they say yes, they are responsible for their actions.
So long as the boys are the targets of your moronic ideas,
and you do nothing to directly effect the girls,
wanton procreation will continue unabated.
The Bradley_Amendment's automatic, mindless liens against the boys,
just drives them into the invisible market,
sometimes for the rest of their lives.
http://en.WikiPedia.ORG/wiki/Bradley_Amendment
ZMag.ORG takes note of males dropping_out, long_term:
Participation in the labor force by prime working-age males,
who still command the highest wages for any given job,
has been drifting downward for more than 40 years.
...
Another sign of " hidden unemployment "
is the rapid expansion in numbers of people who declare themselves
" self-employed " — 9.2 million by November 2003,
accounting for 6.6 percent of all people who say they are working
and are officially counted as employed.
Some of them — perhaps many — are out of work
but will not admit it to the Household Survey enumerator
who collects the employment data each month.
Self-employed workers increased by 156,000 in November;
this was a primary reason why the official unemployment rate
dropped from 6.0 percent in Oct- ober to 5.9 percent in November.
