Exciting
Reforms in State
It's exciting to see so many citizens bringing reform to
Massachusetts, particularly knowing that we have been a part in
helping them.
The problems of Gov. Cellucci demonstrate that
people with morals will not be denigrated by politicians again in
Massachusetts. And the legislature is finally beginning to learn
just how terrible DSS is. Many other good things are happening.
While some people view MassNews as printing sad
things about the world, we see our role as exciting and positive
because we believe in the changes that are occurring. We rejoice
in that change.
More Church
Plantings
The growing number of new churches
in New England, often called "church plantings,"
signifies an increased effort by people to find more meaning in
their lives, religious experts have told the Associated Press.
"There has been a large increase in the
number of church plantings here in New England in the last couple
of years," said one.
"There is a wonderful tradition of
evangelism in New England, but somewhere along the line the
region's traditional churches became doctrinally more liberal and
less Bible-based. There is a need for re-churching of the New
England area." Most of the new churches are reported to be
evangelical.
Helping Those
Who Can't Afford a Lawyer
The judges of the state are being ordered to attend hearings
across the state to talk about the problems of people who can't
afford a lawyer and consequently try to represent themselves in
court. If Chief Justice Margaret Marshall would only get out of
her chambers and into her courts and see what happened to the
mother who was shackled in Lowell court in February, she would see
the simple solution.
All she needs to do is to get the courts running
efficiently again. They are in chaos and everyone knows it.
Lawyers are being paid to sit for hours and then are told to come
back again tomorrow and sit some more. Who can afford to pay a
lawyer for sitting? And Marshall's judges allow the state and DSS
to litigate ridiculous little things for the sole purpose of
frustrating and bankrupting the citizens. DSS has all the time and
money in the world, but the citizens don't. In addition, the
poverty lawyers who are paid by the taxpayers to help poor people
but are controlled by Marshall's court, always use this tactic to
frustrate and bankrupt the poor people on the other side that they
won't represent.
If Marshall would visit a court and wait on
those hard benches or in the smelly corridors like everyone else,
maybe even she would understand. She should take some of those
rich lawyers from the Boston Bar Association who have never been
in a court to go with her. They could take along a picnic lunch.
Globe Never
Reported Murder of Jesse Dirkhising
The death of the 13-year-old, Jesse Dirkhising, who died a
terrible death in Arkansas after being raped by homosexual lovers,
aged 23 and 39, was never reported by the Boston Globe last month.
Many compared their lack of coverage with their total infatuation
with the gruesome murder of Matthew Shepard in Wyoming in 1998
after he went to a bar looking for sex and was robbed and killed
by two psychopaths. Why was the gruesome murder of one adult in
Wyoming so important while the gruesome murder of a boy in
Arkansas got no attention at all?
The prosecutor told the jury, "The boy had
been given a strong sedative, then restrained while his own
underwear was stuffed into his mouth and held in place with duct
tape. Brown then folded Jesse into position atop a bed while
supporting the boy's body with pillows. While Jesse was bound and
helpless and naked in this position ... he was repeatedly raped
... over a period of hours. Jesse slowly suffocated and
died." The prosecution said Brown raped and sodomized Jesse
with various objects, including food, while Carpenter stood in the
bedroom doorway watching and masturbating.
There were more sickening details which we will
not mention. It is clear that homosexual pedophilia is getting a
total pass from the media in Massachusetts.
Boston
Bar Continues With Feminist Tradition
The Boston Bar Association has announced that the
speaker at its annual Law Day Dinner in May will be one of the
most strident feminists in the country, Susan Estrich, former
campaign manager for Dukakis when he ran for President. Someone
should go to the dinner and see how many times Chief Feminist
Margaret Marshall applauds during the speech.
Boy Scouts
Win Significant Victory
The Boy Scouts won a significant victory last month against the
Broward County Schools in Florida.
"This was an important case for
Massachusetts," said civil rights attorney Chester Darling.
"Some schools in our state have hinted that they might try to
restrict the Scouts. They say that Scout policies conflict with
the anti-discrimination policies in this state. But this case
makes it clear that when we warn the schools they cannot do that
or we will have to sue, we are giving good advice."
A U.S. District Court in Florida issued a Preliminary
Injunction against the school system which had tried to stop the
Scouts from meeting in their buildings even though it allowed
many other groups to use them. The importance of watching the
then-pending Florida case was mentioned in "Protecting Boy
Scouts from Bigotry in Massachusetts Public Schools" in our
March issue.
