Fathers4Justice US and Canada Protests

 USA Fathers4Justice

Zanesville Times Recorder:

Fathers’ rights activists rally outside courthouse

-excerpts below-

Fathers 4 Justice is a national organization that was established in 2005 in Minnesota, organized with the intent to “defend the millions of American families who suffer at the hands of domestic judges, attorneys, social workers and other profiteers engaged in child custody matters.”

“Our goal is to promote equality in family courts,” said John Fowler, Fathers 4 Justice national board of directors member. Fowler, a Licking County resident, has been a member of Fathers 4 Justice since 2005 and is the Ohio coordinator.

He said nationally, the group has a presence in 20 states and is expected to be present in all 50 states before the end of February.

“We receive very positive reactions from 99.9 percent of the people we see,” Fowler said as passing car horns honked. “Happens everywhere we go.”

Costumed Protesters Fighting for Equal Parental Rights

-excerpt-

“We need to get rid of the family law attorneys and replace them with mediators,” Media Coordinator Judi Smith-Phelps said. “People that are positioned to offer these families the resources they need.”

Members say the court system should focus on helping parents get along so they can share custody of their kids.

One of the younger protestors says joint custody for kids is best.

“I get to see my father and mother the same amount of time,” Caleb Smith said.

Reports came in after midnight last night from a supporter who arrived on the scene after the deed was done that, several squad cars had converged on the scene and were combing the area with police dogs.
