1. Keep 4 racquetball courts at Thorton YMCA, Tulsa OK

The Thornton YMCA, located in Tulsa, Oklahoma is growing and expanding its facilities in the next few years, yet the decision has been reportedly made to reduce the number of racquetball/handball courts from 5 to 2.

This doesn’t match their stated direction of “Sports and fitness activities have always been at the core of YMCA programming…including Individual sports such as racquetball, handball, and Frisbee golf. The YMCA is the place for the whole family to enjoy healthy competition and practice good sportsmanship.”

The Thornton YMCA is the only public facility in Tulsa, Oklahoma and its surrounding communities that has more than 2 racquetball/handball courts which is required for tournaments or even effective league or individual play. For the past 15 years, the Oklahoma Racquetball Association has been using the courts at the Thornton facility to host 3-4 racquetball tournaments a year (including a monetary donation the YMCA for each event). These events include our State Singles tournament and Annual Banquet, and other events that have brought professional racquetball players from across the Midwest.

These tournaments help expose the members of the Thornton YMCA and the surrounding community to the outstanding sport of racquetball, and participants in these tournaments have sponsored clinics and leagues for YMCA members and guests at several points throughout the years. With its 5 courts, the YMCA is able to accommodate a large number of competitive, recreational, and even casual racquetball/handball players. Reducing the number of courts will severely limit the number of courts available for YMCA members in Tulsa (this is the only YMCA that has courts anymore since the downtown Y shutdown). Additionally, the Oklahoma Racquetball Association will no longer have a facility in Eastern Oklahoma in which to hold tournaments.

Please help us fight to keep enough racquetball and handball courts at the YMCA!!! It seems that each evening the courts are always full, with mostly doubles being played, to accommodate the number of people wishing to utilize the courts. We racquetball and handball players use these courts every day and need to keep them! Aid us in our desire to help further the YMCA’s mission “To put Christian principles into practice through programs that build healthy spirit, mind, and body for all” by providing enough courts for those who wish to play.

2. PROTECT THE VICTIMS OF CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE IN SRI LANKA

At the request made by the mother of a child sexual victim, the Judge at the High Court in Sri Lanka (Case No 39/2004), made a recommendation to the Attorney General to withdraw the indictment.

After considering all the facts involved and in view of the sheer severity of the damage that could cause to the victim in this particular case, the AG agreed to withdraw the charges. Unfortunately the news papers published the details of the case including false information violating the child's right to privacy and confidentiality, totally destroying the intentions of the courts and causing immense damage to the victim and her family.

This secondary victimization has severely damaged the victim without giving her the opportunity to rebuild her life.

3. Open family courts to the public to see the truth

There are too many lies and corrupt courts in the world, the courts need to be open so we can see that justice is done properly like the criminal courts, as child abuse should been seen as criminal and not only judge but jury and then they would be a fair hearing part of our human rights as children are taken away from loving familys and this causes more abuse to children.

John Bowbly child psychologist stated it will do more harm than good if a child and mother is separated, research shows children in care are more likely to end up criminals themselves and ASBO.

4. ABOLISH DEATH PENALTY IN IRAN: 10,000,000 SIGNATURE CAMPAIGN

In the past 32 years, the Iranian fascist regime has executed tens of thousands of Iranians--mostly prisoners of conscience and members of minority religious groups. We believe that no one is entitled to take another person's life. This motivated us to start a 10,000,000-signature campaign to abolish death penalty in Iran.


در طی سی و دو سال گذشته رژیم حاکم بر ایران به نام دین دهها هزار ایرانی را اعدام کرده است که اکثر آنان دگر اندیشان مذهبی و زندانیان سیاسی بوده اند. ما معتقدیم تنها خداوند است که جان میدهد و حق دارد جان بگیرد. این کمپین به منظور جمع آوری حد اقل ده میلیون (10000000) امضاء برای لغو قانون اعدام در ایران راه اندازی شده است. به ما بپیوندید

5. Paedophiles' rights? What about the rights of our children!

Please make sure you sign the petition at the bottom of this page and like it.

My website has profiled over 9.000 UK paedophiles.

http://chris-ukorg.org/uk-child-abusers-named-and-shamed/

I am sick of hearing the excuses Paedophiles give for abusing our vulnerable and innocent children and I want society as a whole to stand up and show how disgusted we are.

Whatever the do-gooders and the well-meaning say, the sick desires of these people will NEVER go away and they will continue to do damage to our future generations.

If they have killed once, abused a child or viewed indecent images, they will do it again if they think they can get away with it – and they always believe they will. The re-offending rate of a convicted paedophile is estimated at around 70 %.

Which makes it even more bewildering to most police officers is that this type of criminal should ever be even considered for release.

And all the mental health professionals I have spoken to agree with me that paedophilia is one condition for which there is simply no reliable cure.

6. Restore the credit score of qualified citizens and businesses to pre 2007 levels

The United States is currently in the worst recession since the Great Depression. With millions of American Citizens out of work, pay decreases, under pay, many hardships have befouled the American people. These hardships have caused credit to be controlled with tighter regulation.

With no fault of their own, citizens with good credit now have been forced into bankruptcy, foreclosures, late pays and repossessions of autos, aircraft, water craft, and personal items.So far in 2010 1,572,597 million bankruptcies have been filed, 1.2 million foreclosed properties, that is 1 in every 78 homes, 1.9 million cars in 2009 and 2010 is up by 8%. Even the wealthy are feeling the down turn, with high end aircraft everything from a Piper Cub airplane to 747 jumbo jets are being recovered by creditors.

Our mission is to restore the health of credit score to individual citizens and business. To promote the responsible use of credit, to facilitate economic growth within the United States of America. To use all lawful means to carry out these objectives.

8. Impose Fines For Filing Frivolous Lawsuits

It has come to the point in this country that, every time you turn around, you here somone say "I'm going to sue" or "You can probably sue them for that" or some other similar comment. We have become a society where people "look" for anything that they caould sue someone for, and probably win.

Sueing because you spilled your coffee, or because you can smell someones cigarette, or because the neighbors kid bothers you when they play basketball in the driveway. These are absolutely ridiculous reasons for anyone to be able to sue in court. These types of lawsuits are making a mockery of our judicial system, and quite often, are awarding people for their own negligence.

It is time to make people grow up and take responsibility for their own actions rather than imposing that responsibility on others.

9. Impose Maximum Award Limits To Lawsuits

Lawsuit awards have gotten entirely out of control. To award anyone an amount that is several times more than their earning potential in a lifetime has become very costly to the American public. Awarding 3 million dollars fro spilled coffee, 300 million because someone chose to smoke, and various other unrealistic awards, cost all of us money. How many more hamburgers would McDonald's have to sell to make up for 3 million dollars? Can they make it up by selling more hamburgers, or would they have more success by raising the price? An insurance company gets ordered to pay 200 million dollars.

Who pays for that 200 million? WE DO! Rates go up, we pay more per month, include that amount in 10 other companies raising prices to cover losses and our paychecks now go only half as far as they did last month. It amazes me how many people think, "they have insurance, it won't hurt them." The actual truth is, YES it does hurt. It hurts us, the consumer, with higher prices that we must pay so that the insurance company can afford to pay these awards.

10. A change to grandparents' rights to protect parental rights

Grandparents' rights are a far too often ignored law that needs addressed. These rights have completely taken away parents' natural god given and constitutional rights as parents. In 2000, Troxel vs. Granville the supreme court ruled grandparents rights unconstitutional. These rights have destroyed families and children.

Pennsylvania courts are quick to take the side of a grandparent, while avoiding a fit parents objection, and rights. A grandparent does not have the title of parent, unless the situation warrants it, by the death of the parents, or the abuse of a child. This is a horrific and sad law that we as parents are tired of. Grandparents should visit their grandkids without stipulation, and without the courts. And should respect the parents wishes for their own children.

11. Federal Consent Decree against California

The State of California has recently violated the States Constitution by giving retroactive immunity to judges dating back twelve years.

Judges in California are State employees and what was happening is that various counties were giving judges extra pay. In Los Angeles County, they were giving over $40,000 extra a year.

As a result, cases have been tainted based upon this pay, especially when the County was a defendant in the case. In the years of 2005 through 2007, not one judge had ever ruled against the County and more than half ever seen the court room.

13. Student’s Right to use the Campus our Tuition and Tax Dollars Built at the U of U

"Lack of activity destroys the good condition of every human being, while movement and methodical physical exercise save it and preserve it." ~Plato

A group of approximately 25 students of all races, nationalities and ethnicities, was recently denied access to soccer fields located near the HPER buildings to play “The Worlds Beautiful Game”, soccer, on a late Thursday evening. The students were also warned that security would be called if they proceeded to use the empty soccer field.

The reason’s for denial of use of the field that were stated in a brief conversation with an administrator at the College of Health, the College responsible for the field, were that the students did not reserve the field, but also did not pay $30 an hour to utilize the field.

It is interesting to note that in years past, this fee was not applied to anyone who used these fields but is now being done so due to recent budget cuts. Ironically, all 25 of the students could have swiped their U-cards to use the heated indoor pool inside the HPER complex or have gone to the Field House to play basketball, lift weights, or play indoor soccer. The students would not have been charged further to use those facilities.

It quickly became apparent the ‘Mandatory Fee’s’ that are addendum to students tuition did not cover this field. Rudimentary research to ascertain what the ‘Mandatory Fees’ that accompany the tuition are quickly shows that these fee’s go to: ‘ASUU Activity, Athletic, Building, Collegiate Reader Program, Computing, Fine Arts, Utilities, Health, Library, Publication Council, Recreation, Study Abroad, Sustainability, and Transportation budgets.’ In light of the highlighted budgets, it would seem evident that use of the soccer fields is a fundamental right that students garner when attending this institution

This denial of campus grounds is far more egregious after contacting the city and county about their reservation policies and charges on the use of their soccer fields, softball fields, basketball courts, and tennis courts and discovered that the city and county do not charge for use of their facilities, even in this economic recession. In addition, BYU does not force their students to reserve and pay to use campus ground.

To add to this incendiary act, the group of students was of an international origin, making this denial of use an international disgrace. Despite being a large commuter campus, student life of all forms should be supported; especially those activities that are constructive and healthy in nature. In light of student fee’s paid, burdening students further with financial obligations to play something that is otherwise free elsewhere is in principal a folly and sinister in nature, especially since one of the fields is in near unplayable condition,

14. Get Riding Back!

From most kids houses there’s no where to ride. But, These Game wardens are posting everything and fining us. For what?! Riding? We aren’t hurting anything. And they wonder why people are calling cops on us for riding roads. You tell me where is there to ride where it’s not posted? I’m pretty sure a kid doesn’t want to pay ANOTHER fine.

One place, the rock dump which isn’t that big and we still have people yelling for the dust. So what is the problem with us on trails? We aren’t hurting anything we aren’t tearing down trees or making new trails. We are just riding. They are fining us for riding? But, they aren’t catching the people down at the PARK doing drugs, And they wonder why kids do drugs in our town. What else is there to do? There’s a park two actually. But who wants to sit at a park?

The basketball courts are all cracked and all dipped in. Plus you can only stay till eight or you get a fine! And what else is there? We don’t have one arcade. Not one Public Pool. We have BARS instead. That’s so fun. NOT! We can walk around town but what’s fun about that. Drugs all around you? That about all that is in our small town. There is nothing for the kids to do. Ride? But there’s a problem about that but they just blow off the kids with drugs. That doesn’t make sense. This town doesn’t! So we the kids and adults are going to get riding back because we don’t want to do drugs and our parents don’t want us to, we would rather ride!!

15. Stop the abusive powers of the courts of the State of Washington

As with the brochure, "A guide on When and How to challenge, Seal, vacate or expunge" in regards to criminal court records. "There is currently no statute that would allow for destruction of a court record from a proceeding involving a criminal action against an adult." - State of Washington, June 2008

This means that a person who is charged with a crime, yet is found not guilty will have that charge on his record and will negatively affect employment, rental and educational opportunities in the State of Washington and the United States of America.

Judges are not allowing citizens that have been accused of a crime, yet found not guilty, to have their records destroyed or expunged. What ever happened to innocent until proven guilty?

17. Stop the Mason's crimes today

Anti Corruption Party is a free, voluntary support group for victims of Freemasonry. Masons are the invisible terrorists within every community.

How to stop the NWO/Masons crimes immediately

You must fight for and demand a public register of Freemasons, Co Masons and The Order Of The Eastern Star (female Masons)

This would comprehensively prove if they are a good charitable fraternity or a criminal organisation.

Freemasonry portrays itself that it is all good. It should not have a problem with a public register of their (good?) members.

After all, wouldn't you like to know if your best friend, family, lawyer, policeman, doctor, emergency services, neighbour, military forces, social services, politician, judge, dentist, tradesman, vet, supermarket, council, postman, religious leader, care worker, etc, is a Mason ? Fact, Freemasonry flourishes on the abuse of your trust.

First of all, write to your local lodge (via signed for letter), we guarantee they will ignore you. Then do a Freedom of Information request (via signed for letter). Then take your results to your Politician (ask if he is a Mason). If you get nowhere, you now know for sure that everything we say is true. Next, you must educate everybody. Start petitions and send/fax/print off copies of this email to everyone in your street, workplace, library, waiting rooms, supermarkets, public transport etc. Knock on the doors of your local lodge (local house of corruption) and ask them questions. Make sure you have a witness, voice recorder and video-cam. Ask them for a public register or about someone you suspect of being a member. We have to waken up immediately, we HAVE to fight this as we are running out of time. Get rid of this Masonic mind-controlled virus and the NWO will fall. No Masonic foot-soldiers = no power. Direct any doubters to the websites below (and follow the links) or get them to read the David Icke newsletters.

Freemasonry is the main tool for the Illuminati - Oil Barons - Bankers - Royalty - World's Richest Families (mainly American/Israelis). These people are responsible for a trillion, trillion crimes (underestimated) against the planet and its contents. All food, fuel, poverty, starvation, misery and energy costs are all manipulated by the NWO. All wars, terrorism, drugs, crime, politics (including Lisbon Treaty) is fabricated by the NWO. They also own all media so they control everything you see, read and hear. All of the laws in every country have been changed to favour the NWO. We are literally being controlled by a criminal network/organisation and they have nasty/vile/despicable plans for us all. Checkout the brilliant truth-seeking websites below and educate yourselves to this very serious situation. Freemasonry is also a mind-controlled religious cult and they DO practice witchcraft.

Give us a public register of the secret societies and the "societies with secrets" (the Freemasons get out clause). Then we will no longer be controlled by a criminal religious cult/network/organisation. If you are a member of Freemasonry, there is nothing to stop you reading what you are a part of. You are just a fool and a tool to be used. Do you really think you'll get the call when it all kicks off? If you are not one of their bloodlines, you are just as dispensable as the rest of us. You ARE being used and temporarily rewarded.

Please don't waste valuable time on their silly Masonic signs, numbers and symbols. It's all designed that way to cloud your investigations. Get focused and start working towards a public register first. Incidentally, why have they got charity status when their ninth degree Mason takes his vows to kill for Freemasonry ? Do not listen to anything from a Mason's head, its brainwashed.

You can find it here....... http://stores.lulu.com/GORDONKAMERON Just how much more facts, truths do you need ? take action now, today.

Let ACP put it this way, 99% of the public are not aware of Masonic Theatre, where Masons actually stage situations that look normal to the untrained eye. In every situation you can think of. For example, almost every person who works in the emergency services is a Mason. Now, where lies their impartiality as a creditable witness ? So, when you see these people on the Masonic owned media as a witness, who are you going to believe ? 9/11 - 7/7 - Diana, etc. Simple logic, we need a public register of Freemasons, Co Masons and the Order The Eastern Star (female Masons).

Anonymous communications are usually ignored. Make sure you get a genuine reply as these crooks are protecting their plunder. Technology is brilliant, we pay for it and the criminal Masonic members get to abuse it. Question, why don't the authorities investigate Freemasonry ? Join ACP, its free, just send your email and we'll send you our regular ACP newsletter. Forward this to all or we all fall. Let's stop these destroyers of society. Stop the NWO's criminal Masonic foot-soldiers now. We do not want a register of any other club, group or organisation. Masons will argue their human rights, talk to their victims first.

If you are a law abiding taxpayer then you are a member of ACP. Spread the word, make a flyer, start a local group of truth-seekers, put it onto the forums, copy this and distribute. Or you can get involved in our latest project at www.wholetruthcoalition.org/ Don't waste your time with low level Masons, they know nothing about the evil inner core of Freemasonry.

18. Grant Disclosure to Scottish Defendants

This petition though is NOT just about one or two people. It is about ANYONE who needs to have disclosure to ensure fairness and justice.

The head of Scotland's biggest association of court lawyers has claimed that a "significant number" of cases are collapsing because of a failure by prosecutors to show the defence key evidence on time.

Gerry Considine, the president of the Glasgow Bar Association, says delays by the Crown Office in disclosing potentially crucial evidence, including DNA reports and witness statements, have caused "terminal delays" to cases.

Two years ago, the judicial committee of the Privy Council, the highest criminal appeal court, quashed the convictions of two Scots, James Holland and Alvin Sinclair, on the grounds the Crown had failed to disclose vital documents and therefore denied their right to a fair trial.

Until then, the disclosure of Crown evidence or information had rested with the Lord Advocate and Crown Office.

But the landmark rulings decreed that, unless there are national security implications, all statements have to be made available to the defence "as a matter of course".

BUT

In Scotland this is still not happening.

When there is a possible miscarriage of justice ALL evidence, no matter how insignificant it may seem, should be handed over to defence counsel.

There are many cases in which disclosure has been requested because it is vital to a fair hearing of evidence.

It should be made law that anyone who is claming to be innocent and has grounds to appeal a conviction, that they receive ALL information from the prosecution.

This is the right and moral way to go about this.

It only makes the public think there is something wrong when disclosure is refused.

In most of the recent miscarriages of justice involving non-disclosure, the failure to disclose was only discovered after the accused had been convicted. Indeed, it was not until all relevant information had been disclosed that the relevant grounds of appeal could be formulated.

This is unfair because innocent people end up spending more time in prison awaiting appeals, when the answer could very well lie in statements and evidence that has not been shown to the defence.

All statements and similar material generated in the course of the investigation which led up to the charges against an accused person should be made available to the accused, unless there were special reasons why any particular documents should not be handed over"

"Our system of criminal procedure therefore proceeds on the basis that the Crown have a duty at any time to disclose to the defence information in their possession which would tend to exculpate the accused”
(Lord Justice General Rodger )

The European authorities clearly regarded disclosure at the stage of appeal as potentially significant (Dowsett v United Kingdom, 24 June 2003, Application No. 39482/98).

In McClymont v HM Advocate [2006] HCJAC 47 the Crown had (rightly) recognised that its failure to disclose a prior statement at the appropriate stage had resulted in a miscarriage of justice.

19. Kenya's Flawed/Rigged Election On 27 Dec 2007

Mr. Kibaki must step down and give way for Mr. Raila A. Odinga - the people's president because Kibaki is in the office illegally and has imposed himself on Kenyans.

Even though Kenya has struggled to gain democratic space, the behavior of Mr. Kibaki takes Kenya years back into colonial era.

The evidence does not need more corroboration since:
The just ended Kenyan election ECK Boss admits, Yes, vote tallying had problems, admits Kivuitu. And when he demanded all constituency tallies, he found some figures were not the ones he had personally seen, he said. As of Tuesday, he added, the commission had not received the official Form 16 from four constituencies. The forms give the actual figures from constituencies signed by the returning officer.

It is those forms that had raised a furor when ODM leaders disputed the results, arguing that 49 constituencies had not submitted them and that the ECK was merely using a computer generated form that could be done anywhere. He said the officer had shown him forms of two constituencies — Juja and Kieni — whose results had been tampered with and the returning officer had not counter-signed, as is the normal practice. A shocked Mr Kivuitu said: “What surprised me was the files I saw yesterday (Tuesday) were very clean and the two files I saw (previously) were very dirty because of the cancellation.” He had informed his commissioners that he was dissatisfied.

Three issues to note:

1. No Going to Kenyan Courts: The matter cannot be resolved in the Kenyan courts because at the hall where the rigging and manipulation was taking place was the Justice Ministers Martha Karua and Internal Security Minister John Michuki. They were privy to what was taking place and maybe part of the rigging. So they cannot be trusted.

2. No Fare Judgment: Chief Justice took part in swearing the rigged in president at night knowingly the vote was rigged. Thus he is also part of the election problem facing Kenyans now and since judiciary is under his docket, there may not be a fair hearing.

3. Need for interim Government: As indicated by the Kenyan Attorney General Amos Wako that an independent investigation into vote results that led to President Mwai Kibaki's disputed re-election. This may not be possible since all the documents to be relied upon during the exercise have been severely tampered with by the government agents, stolen from KICC by the government that’s determined to erase all the evidence to cover her tracks in the melee and or lacks credibility.

This only gives way for an independent arbiter that can be impartial in the fact-finding mission while an interim government is in place while waiting for fresh elections. This must be within a short time say, three months at most.

All Kenyans know is that Kibaki did not win the elections but has robbed Kenyans.

He has always been told to "take the plea", so the PD won't have to do any work. His worst offense is trying to keep working two jobs to support his family, and keep a place to live. He has been in work release, home detention, and lock-up off and on for twenty years, because we didn't know who to turn to.

23. Lies, Buried No Longer!

The case, Nevada vs. Guyette may be one of the most bizarre cases in history to date! Lies, created by officials of Nevada and Indiana that convicted and imprisoned a young 19 year old, Harold "Pete" Guyette in 1966 for one of two murders, currently haunts the offices of the Churchill Co. Sheriff and District Attorney in Fallon, Nevada.

The newly elected Governor of Nevada, Jim Gibbons is being demanded through this petition to answer questions that can no longer be concealed, as was done by the former Governor Kenny Guinn. Guyette's release after six years from the Nevada State Prison at Carson City on 11-3-72, serving a life/without parole sentence, never brought to trial on the second charge of murder, demands answers. Only through the efforts of William E. Plants, a Fallon, Nevada preacher, Byron Meredith, an attorney, who was eager to make a name for himself, and Bruce R. Thompson, an United States District Court Judge, Nevada, who recognized the blatant miscarriage of justice and had the courage to apply the law, did Guyette regain freedom. Judge Bruce R. Thompson wrote a letter seven days after Guyette's release, stating "...the record and evidence, produced, proved not only that Guyette's conviction had been obtained by violating his constitutional rights but also that he was in fact, not guilty of the charge."

Today, thirty-five years after his release from prison in 1972, Guyette presents the following petition, supported by signatures of individuals throughout the United States, Canada and any other country, seeing the obligation that requires Jim Gibbons, the newly elected Governor of Nevada to answer questions that should have been answered forty years ago when Guyette was arrested in Elkhart, Indiana on April 1, 1966!

26. Abolish Gender Bias in Illinois Family Courts

July 17, 2006

Illinois Family Courts have established an alarming pattern of taking children away from stay-at-home mothers and awarding custody to fathers, who in many cases have a history of abuse and violence.

More than 250 profiles of cases are documented. The Family Court system has forgotten about the children and focused on money.

Local children are coming forward to expose the court-ordered damage these innocent victims endure.

27. Religious Tolerance and Cultural Diversity

December 17, 2005

An American Hindu family living in a rural Village in Western New York State is appealing a Court Injunction banning their Family Cow.

The Village allows a Commercial Beef farm to operate across the Street from the family's home.

The Local Courts have reufused to address the First Amendment issues, saying the case has nothing to do with Religion. The Judge did not give the family a chance to testify at their trial.

The family wants to keep a cow and her calf on their 14 1/2 acre Village property in order to demonstrate humane and responsible care of cows and to promote vegetarianism, sustainable agriculture and locally grown food as the first steps towards a socially responsible diet.

They advocate Ahimsa (non-violence) and work to promote peace, gratitude and mercy in human society; all of which are symbolized by the cow in their religion.

Although the practice of protecting cows is unique to Hinduism, the principles of responsible and humane treatment of cows represents the Free Speech interests of a broad spectrum of Americans concerned with animal rights, vegetarianism, sustainable agriculture and nonviolence, (Ahimsa).

The Village of Angelica does not forbid farm animals and other residents keep cows, goats, sheep and chickens for commercial purposes and as pets.

Please sign the petition to the US Commission on Civil Rights and let them know the US Courts should give serious consideration to cases involving Free Speech and Religious Expression.

28. Expose False Child Abuse Reporting

The Hennepin County Juvenile court prosecutes so many false child Abuse cases that it is damaging families unnecessarily. I think that a class action suit should be filed against them for defamation of Character and Slander.

The courts take the word of a child mad at the time at their parent or guardian and file a report that goes to the police. Whether the police drop the case or not the Hennepin County prosecuter still gets a copy and files a suit on a dropped case. This means the innocent person then has to do some form of restitution for something that should never has been tried in the first place, and ends up with a record they don't deserve. They are faced with background checks and the inability to obtain decent jobs to provide a decent standard of lifestyle to children that are no longer angry.

The problem still remains that the child needs to get disciplined so they won't end up a menance to society but this is not taken into account when that same child that lied in the first place is stealing or vandalizing or some other horrific crime that could have been prevented before the right to discipline a child was taken away from their parent.

30. Fair Child Support Laws in Florida

In Florida under the current laws they can take/make you pay up to 55% of your income in child support. Though I believe that parents should support their children I also believe that the support payer should be allowed to keep enough money to live.

The Court system doesn't care if you have children living with you or not or if you have a new family there is no consideration of these issues.
The paying parent must pay this amount plus pay for the costs of Insurance, Daycare and what ever else the Courts add on.

This is not an attempt to allow parents to not pay support, but an attempt to get the laws changed to a more fair percentage of 20 to 30% of net income.
