"...yes, the justice system makes mistakes sometimes, and this has happened since ancient times. Innocent people are sometimes punished. It's horrible, but a fact of life. We cant just let 1,000 guilty people walk free just to aviod incarcerating one *possibly* innocent person."

Crimes and oppressions against women should be addressed and treated fairly. No arguement with that, but I do question how many men's lives, families, and yes women too, must be ruined to satisfy the gender feminist's agenda, which, John Kerry in this past Presidential election pledged his support to.

There wouldn't even be a men's movement in America today, IMO, if there weren't some really unjust things going on in this country,

and yes, much of it is in the arena of family law, but it's also in other social institutions like our schools, colleges, and universities.

I agree with you that there are some things going on that are unjust to men, same as there are things that are unjust to women.

We should work to end these injustices, and though there may be a number of them, that still doesnt make an entire war on one gender or the other.

"There wouldn't even be a men's movement in America today,"

I dont think the men's movement is very big, as far as I know, at least not nearly as big as the women's movement.

You're either retired-mean, or out of work.

You can disagree all you want; you can attempt to take me apart point by point....

but dammit don't put words in my mouth and then attack me for things I didn't say.

And when you use lots and lots of exclamation points and question marks--!!!!!!!, ????!!!!!--people just think you're nuts.

You are my new best friend, thank you.

Pleased ta meet cha!

Are there really that many first-class pigs out there, who leer and tell off-color jokes and literally grope women these days?

To be frank, I never found any of them to exist ... or if they were there, they didn't pull this nonsense on me. I won't say there aren't goobs a'plenty, just that I don't think they are on every street corner or in every corner office.

I never had a problem with the *water cooler humor* but I have also found that so long as I behave as a lady, I am treated as such. Wonders never cease!

And the insidiousness of it all is, they are able to conscript soldiers in the War Against Men without them even knowing it.

Simple, magnificent, universal wonders...that some people will never get. Thanks.

Did you and Jim make the first server from old Heathkit parts? Seriously, thanks for being here back in the day.
Safe travel.

The place was up and running strong when I joined up. I am, however, pleased to have had the opportunity to have met the Man a few times. I've also had him personally ban me from time to time, too. Ouch!

P.S.

I used to live about an hour's drive from where they made Heathkits.

Yes, public awareness is certainly lacking.

Whatever. I'm tired of responding to your immature, childish insults.

You are wrong, and I am right. :)

Now, talk to someone who actually cares what you have to say. :)
