  Hey guys, lets try and make this a great one. If each reader sends invitation to celebrities such as Howard Stern, Tom Lykes, John and Ken, Bill Handel and others in your radio listening audiences, then maybe we can draw more attention to our plight. I am too far myself to come to DC but this rally is something we should all support by what evermeans we can. I suggest next year it be scheduled on Fathers Days, instead.
  Please do send invitations to your federal legislatures and state also. I also urge you each write to your local news papers to send their reporters to cover it. Lets get involved more than the women have been. Have you seen how much press Ms Hilton gets just for going to jail? Lets getLarry King to come out. Send invite to him.
  United we stand undivided we fall. We need family law reform and shared parenting, elimination of alimony and equal child support by both parents not just men.
  Lets unite for our kids. Fight for our kids not politations or other stupid things.

  A lot of people won’t make the trip for one reason or another. My guess is it will be a relatively small turnout that will do more to discourage people than anything else. The people profiting from this slave trade, will be encouraged by the small turnout, if they even notice. I hope I’m wrong, but I think half-ass measures like this, will do far more harm than good.

  It’s not important if people choose to attend this event, what’s important is what they do the other 364 days of the year.

  Stop giving them your money; it’s the only thing they’re really after, and it’s the only thing that will stop the injustice.

  While Mr. Merck seems to have all the answers, I would like to know what if anything he himself is doing to make a difference in our current state of affairs or is he simply another person attached to his computer throwing salt at every effort being made for change.

  The DC Rally is actually the beginning of a 5 year plan which includes the passage of the Family Preservation and Reconciliation Act, mobilizing families nationwide to effect the elections so that our families and its relationships will be held in higher esteem.

  While we can promise only that we will continue to uncover corruption in the system and redirect Title IV funding so that it reflects taking care of family relationships rather than destroy them, I am hard pressed to see in his post any well thought out solutions or alternatives to the DC Rally.

  I can guarantee one thing and that is if we continue to divide ourselves the way Mr. Merck suggest, we will continue to be destroyed because of people like this who know more than the rest of us and have yet to make any effort or suggestions for change.

  -mass incarcerations without trial or charge

  -forced confessions

  -children forcibly separated from parents who are under no suspicion of legal wrongdoing and parents stripped of the care, custody, and companionship of their children without explanation

  -government agents entering the homes, demanding and examining private papers and personal effects, and seizing the property of citizens who are under no suspicion of legal wrongdoing

  -official court records, including hearing tapes and transcripts, doctored and falsified with the knowledge of court officials and evidence fabricated against the innocent

  -defendants denied the constitutional right to face their accusers

  -bureaucratic police authorized to issue subpoenas and arrest warrants against parents, with no hearing and contrary to due process of law

  -special courts created specifically to process parents for political offenses

  -forced labor facilities created specifically for parents

  -children instructed to hate their parents with the backing of government officials

  -children forced by government officials to act as informers against their parents

  -children abused and killed with the backing of government officials
  knowingly false allegations, for which no evidence is presented, accepted as fact without proof, overturning the presumption of innocence, and not punished when demonstrated to be untrue

  -parents ordered by government officials to separate from their spouses, on pain of losing their children

  -parents forced to pay the private fees of court officials they have not hired and whose services they have not sought or used, on pain of incarceration

  -parents suspected of no legal wrongdoing punitively stripped of their property and income, sometimes at gunpoint, and reduced to penury

  -government officials using the mass media to vilify private American citizens, and political leaders using their offices as platforms to verbally attack private American citizens, who have no right of reply or opportunity to defend themselves

  -parents jailed without trial reportedly beaten, in at least one case fatally, and denied medical attention while in police custody.

  If you are one of the people this is happening to, five years is too late. I’m not saying it won’t take five years. I’m saying five years is too long for tens of thousands of innocent people who will fall victim to these criminals in the interim.

  Most Americans want an end to the war in Iraq. Most would agree that the way to end the war is to cut off funding. Only one problem, no one wants to be perceived as the people responsible for demonstrating a lack of support for our troops.

  I think most of us realize that cutting off the so-called child support would end this war on fathers and children, the only problem being that no one wants to be perceived as the people responsible for demonstrating a lack of support for their children.

  God only knows how long the war in Iraq will continue. God only knows how many lives will be lost, because we wrongly equate the desire to end the bloodshed, with a lack of support for our troops.

  How long are we going to allow this war on fathers and children to continue because we lack the courage and determination to cut off the funding? No one should confuse child support with helping their children; it’s financing the war on fathers and children.

  We should encourage people not to hire attorneys:

  We need to organize people to vote. Here is a great idea from Indiana CRC:

  I don’t think it does us any good to argue about who is doing more to bring about change. My perception of what needs to happen is different than yours. It will probably take a wide range of efforts. I think we need to stop paying, and I’m doing my best to strictly limit the amount I contribute to this extortion racket. If what Carol Rhodes said is true, (that each dollar collected brings in fifty in matching federal dollars) then I’ve denied these criminals over $5,000,000 from the feds, and I’m proud of that. Money motivates everything these people do and we need to stop paying their extortion.

  Mr. Merek sounds like alot of other lost fathers. There is an old saying if you first don’t suceed try,try, and try again. The problem is alot of people think that the DC Rally is just another Rally. I would bag to differ. I could not attend because I found out a little to late and have eight children. Next year I plan on being there. I think the DC Rally is a seed. The seed was planted and now all of us need to water and nurish the seed so it can grow. I have alot of friends and family from the political area and am working on getting some things going here in Oregon. If you believe strong enough in something you will fight till the end and not grow weary. I believe with faith and some effort over the next five years we will see things change for the better. I can not think of a family who is not affected by what is going on in America today. Wheather it be a mom,dad, grandparent, aunt, uncle, neice, nephew, or ect. someone is affected. Stand up and fight like an american. We the people.
