A "report" just released by the California chapter of NOW on the alleged abuse of women in family courts is fluff without substance.

Nevertheless, a submissive media is eating up the report and rushing to sound tired alarm bells.

"Family Court Report 2002" has the ostentatious trappings of respectable research: 134 pages; four authors, including the President of CANOW; and a self-declared "three years" of research.

This could potentially be the stupidest thing NOW has pulled in recent history, although it's always a close contest. By calling attention to the issue of bias and discrimination in family court, they have now opened up the way for an investigation - something that men have been calling for, for many years. They should have shut up and let injustice and discrimination prevail in that nasty little den of thieves and vipers.

Bias against women? Even the most cursory glance at the statistics will tell a different story. Not even NOW can sell this much bushwah.

I think this boils down to publicity. By defending the rapist Mr. Bill (plus his other sexploits) NOW has shown itself to be a left-leaning political organization, whose sole concern for women has to do with being able to abort babies and castrate Republican men.

With membership way down, they have to do something. Expect more of the same.
