What will it take? Part 7<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Those of us who have become well acquainted with the guardianship racket have long understood the perfidy of the three major court insiders. We have been focused on misbehavior and criminality by judges, guardians and lawyers who have caused such harm to so many we love. But none of these predators practice in a vacuum. They live in our communities, they may attend religious services, they may sit on the boards of community institutions including schools, they go to health clubs and golf courses, and in order to do all these things they must maintain a controlled positive profile. They do not want their pictures in the paper in any negative way. In order to sustain their veneer of propriety, they must avoid negative publicity and appear to be \u201cgood people\u201d. They must project the image of being charitable by supporting the \u201cright\u201d charities and institutions. They are extremely vulnerable to being publicly shamed. In the Britney Spears case look how quickly so many of the predators jumped ship as soon as they realized that their names were going to be dragged through the mud in the news.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As advocates and victims we have not fought back smartly. We have attempted to fight the enemy on their turf. That is essentially an impossibility as we have learned the hard way. David could never have defeated Goliath without positioning himself on the high ground away from the strength of his overpowering enemy. In other words, trying to overcome these predators on the killing fields that they own– the courts and the entire legal judicial system– is futile for now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are now thousands of us, like-minded motivated angry victims desperate to fight back. We have produced countless lawsuits, books, articles, complaints, court motions, reports, not to mention tears, heartaches, and rage. We might do well to take a different approach of leveraging our communities\u2019 social power to expose what the predators in our own communities do when they are at work. I am not talking about Facebook posts. Perhaps if we simply called attention to what they do to innocent people, their neighbors would be so offended that they would shun them, vote them off boards and committees, stop letting their children associate with theirs, not sell to them, etc. It would be the equivalent of the Scarlet letter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It might be possible to recruit leaders within our communities to design and execute programs to achieve the goal of elevating and educating our friends and neighbors (many of them simply cannot believe how awful the situation really is) with specially designed community programs to highlight and sensitize good people to the presence of predators in their backyard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Every individual who is reading this information right now can become a powerful leader in the intergenerational battle to save our loved ones and ultimately ourselves. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here are a few obvious examples of community resources that could be leveraged to this end:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What is clear from the discussion above is that making change in our society always has to do with the polity\u2014the people who are governed and who have the greatest stake in the proper functioning of their government. These are your friends and neighbors. They live right next door. They will become your allies if they are given education, direction and motivation. And remember, every one of them votes every two years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, perhaps this is the moment that we come together with a common purpose and a clear-cut national game plan to energize and leverage the manpower already in our hands with a formal standardized program of education, political action, social persuasion, media engagement, religious outreach and law enforcement engagement to even the playing field in what has been historically an asymmetric war on our families waged by the predators in equity courts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Maybe this is what will finally take.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now it\u2019s time to hear from you! If you want this to happen you will have to be the point person in your community. You will be the one to carry out this social crusade to save our loved ones. Do you want to sit by and watch the status quo kill more of us, or are you in?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
