Joe Biden Doesn’t Want Men to Talk to Women

When Hillary Clinton’s friends in the US media decided to help John McCain grandstand about Georgia’s attack on South Ossetia, I knew that they were making a play to help blackmail Barack Obama into giving the VP slot to Hillary’s feminist lapdog, Joe Biden. Until the Georgia incident, Obama’s camp seemed to be hostile to what I often heard Obama supporters refer to as the “bitter old Baby Boomer feminists”.

After ultra-left-wing Paul Wellstone died in a plane crash in 2002, the K Street Feminists in Washington snared Joe Biden to be their gofor boy and he has definitely NOT disappointed them. The Clintonista victim feminists can now be counted on to vote Obama-Biden in November.

Over this weekend, a lot of American men have been crying foul about how Joe Biden is the father of the outrageously anti-male Violence Against Women Act (VAWA). VAWA, the very name of which violates the 14th Amendment, has basically made heterosexual marriage a risky option for American males. It definitely violates the US Constitution in that domestic violence (not to mention rape and stalking) are not federal issues but states rights issues. More to the point: the new, updated law forces judges to prefer the word of a woman over a man and to let any woman living with a man simply cry “abuse” in order to get free rent and some of the man’s assets while he sits in jail.

Another anti-male law that Joe Biden championed and got passed can be a lot worse than VAWA after it metasticizes into newer forms. The dishonestly-named International Marriage Broker Regulation Act (IMBRA) states that the US federal government can set conditions on how men and women say hello to each other. Its present form, which will need to be approved by the Supreme Court before it can metasticize, states that a dating website or agency, that primarily introduces Americans to foreigners, must conduct a background check on the American and then force the foreigner to sign in writing that she read the completed form of any given specific US citizen and approved of communication…even though the foreigner had already stated a desire to come into chat or email contact with anyone at all and even for her contact information (like a secondary email address or cell phone number) to be broadcast far and wide to anyone and everyone from every country on Earth (it is a human right to let someone broadcast their contact info).

IMBRA is like, after you get carded at the entrance to a bar, the bartender restrains you from talking to any other person in that bar until after the other person reads and signs your background check.

Over the past 1.5 years that IMBRA has been in effect (it was under a restraining order for one year before that), I have noticed that no American citizen (no male with a pair of gonads) wants to take the time and effort to challenge IMBRA in court. I have learned that the reason for this lack of fighting spirit is because most Americans who date foreigners via agencies…now do so entirely online, mostly dating foreigners who have daily access to email and also mostly dating foreigners who speak English. Since clicking on a button legally constitutes “signing an approval form”, IMBRA has had no “seeming” effect in stopping totally wired Americans from quickly coming into contact with whomever they initiate contact with who also has daily access to the Internet.

Because of the way American males now expect to do most of their dating via email, and the fact that IMBRA barely hinders this mode of dating, the principle of the feminists winning control over our social lives seems to have gone unnoticed.

What so many Americans don’t know (and dating site owners can back me up on this) is that tens of thousands of foreigners who want to meet Americans do NOT have email or at least do NOT have daily or even frequent access to email. These foreigners, mostly women, have either had their profiles deleted or ignored by webmasters in rhe past 1.5 years since IMBRA was upheld at the district level, or their profiles remain front and center on dating sites but no American ever seems to notice that no response ever comes from that profile (the foreigner doesn’t check email but is hoping that an American might call her on her phone or send a telegram or snail mail…which never happens because IMBRA would not allow such forms of initial contact anymore).

Let me go over three scenarios that graphicly show how insane this IMBRA law is and how it can brutally effect all of our lives in the United States if it is upheld by the Supreme Court and allowed to metasticize into domestic feminist laws that regulate all contact between men and women:

First, let’s assume that many American men would not mind too much if a dating website conducted sex offender checks on them before they could be members of the site. This is a huge assumption because conducting such checks necessitates the man losing anonymity which has been a sacred right for those who want to talk to others in every country on Earth for most of the past 6000 years (not even the most totalitarian governments ever required its citizens to refrain from talking with each other before their identities were clarified to each other). 

After being sex offender checked once, a man could then be able to send a message or otherwise intitiate contact with any woman on the dating site (in other cultures women often prefer being initially phoned or telegrammed by men because the women do not feel it is appropriate for them to constantly log onto a site to read web messages).

Regardless of how OK an American would be with having been background checked to be able to belong to a dating site, what every American should mind would be the clause in IMBRA that forces foreign women to “sign in writing” that they read a man’s background. Again…this would be like a bartender forcing every man in the bar to refrain from speaking with anyone woman present until after the woman reads and signs a lot of inappropriate personal history.

Frankly, it wouldn’t matter if the document that a woman has to sign just states what the man’s favorite color is: the logistical nightmare of getting each woman to sign will lead to serious violations of the Right to Assemble as I will now show via three realistic scenarios A and B and C:

 A)

1)      I am in Moscow on a Saturday morning with a flight back to Boston the next day. Someone I had flown to meet that week turned out not to be the love of my life.

2)      Because it is 20 below Celsius outside, I go online and find someone else in Moscow and write to her. This woman had given her phone number to the agency with the hope that this information would be given out to American men. But the online agency cannot give me her phone number or forward an email from me until after the woman reads her email and “signs” the background check that the US government demands before allowing the woman to communicate with the American citizen.

3)      If the woman has no email (dating sites have left such profiles up as filler) the woman will never see an IMBRA notification to approve and the man will never get her phone number.

4)      If the woman will only read her email when she gets to work on Monday, she will approve of contact but the man will be home in Boston, possibly forever

5)      In Russian culture, unlike US culture, the woman probably would have met the man Saturday night if she had become aware of his interest Saturday morning.

6)      Remember that it was her wish that her phone number be broadcast to anyone who might be interested.

7)      Thus the logistics of the “written approval clause” has violated the US Right to Assemble as well as the UN Charter of Human Rights.

 B) 

 

1)      I am in Moscow and popped into a dating agency on a Friday evening at 4:30PM after business meetings took most of the working day. I plan to fly home to Boston on Sunday.

2)      Someone wonderful catches my eye and the agency employees immediately phone her and tell her VERBALLY that my IMBRA check was fine. She wants to meet me.

3)      The employees tell the woman that she must rush to the agency by 5PM close of business to sign the affidavit that she read the IMBRA check.

4)      The woman says she cannot make it by 5PM but could meet me at 6PM at the Pushkin Café (Moscow’s best meeting place).

5)      The agency either tells us both that the meeting will NOT take place because of IMBRA or the agency fudges and lets the two of us meet.  Obviously, the employees will have better things to do than show up at the Pushkin Café at 6PM with the documents to sign.

6)      Alternatively the woman rushes to the agency but arrives only at 5:15PM when the employees are gone…but the American man is waiting outside the locked office doors to meet her and they both happily go on their date.

 C)

1) I have plenty of time to spend in Moscow when an agency makes an appointment for 9AM the next morning for a woman to sign IMBRA documents and meet me.

2) The agency employee is late coming to work the next day, however, and the woman and I had arrived on-time and started talking outside the locked agency doors.

3) As the woman and I leave the building to start a nice date, the agency employee sees us and screams “You are not allowed to talk with each other yet!”

4) The woman and I laugh as we keep going on our way. What is the employee going to do, call the Moscow police and say we violated a US law?

You can see how the above scenarios outline the circumstances under which many agencies do NOT comply with IMBRA because it would be simply too ridiculous to do so. In B and C, the woman’s expressed desire to be with someone particular is blocked or attempted to be blocked by the US Nanny State. In A, the woman’s previously stated desire for her information to be given out is blocked by US Government mandate and, after she corresponds with the man who is home in Boston, she can be very angry that her wish had not been granted on Saturday when the man was still in her home city. 

These scenarios bring to mind the book “1984” where the government actively hampered interpersonal relationships. The climax of that book was when something the protagonist Winston said in private was “disclosed” to his girlfriend Julia by the government (named Big Brother) and their relationship was destroyed. That book was written anonymously, by the way. Few know that Eric Blair wrote it because his fake screen-name was “George Orwell.”

The bottom line is that, no matter how convenient Email is for dating and now matter what “safety” advantages anonymous webmail gives to paranoid women, Americans cannot take it upon  themselves to ban foreigners and Americans alike from using old technology like the telephone, the telegraph (still active in Russia) and snail mail to BEGIN contacting someone else.

The only way Joe Biden’s IMBRA law could be arguably fixed to not entirely violate the 1st Amendment Right to Assemble, is for the initial contact between Americans and foreigners to NOT be conditional on whether the foreigner had signed in writing that she read someone’s background check.

But if you do not see the other ways that Joe Biden’s Nanny State law violates everything you may have held sacred since you were born…God help you.

An American citizen plaintiff is still needed to do a challenge. I know that $8000 can be raised fairly quickly for this. It would be great for a publicized challenge to occur while Biden campaigned this fall. We could maybe get Biden on the witness stand.

Stumble It!

      I don’t get it. Why not meet a bank teller, or store clerk, or meet a woman at a bar? Then you don’t have to go through this whole IMBRA loop.

      If you are in a foreign country, why do you need to use the internet or a ‘dating service’?? My experience has been that women are very, very easy to meet.

      You avoid IMBRA by avoiding the artificial channels they have constructed to manage your contacts. Just don’t do it.

    2. Jim Peterson said,

      Are you seriously saying that you don’t get it?

      When, Roger, did I EVER say that I personally needed to use any of these dating sites?

      In fact, you KNOW I personally wrote an email to you a month ago praising how great Stockholm and the Centralbadet is for meeting women in public.

      Whether or not ANYONE here ever uses a dating site is COMPLETELY beside the point. Totally irrelevant.

      At stake here is a reversal of the CDA-Communications Decency Act where (sadly) it was the Conservative Supreme Court justices who wanted to abolish anonymity for Internet users and the liberals who wanted people to be allowed to remain anonymous online and talk with others.

      This has little to do with dating.

      All Americans are in a lot of trouble right now and IMBRA is just a symptom of a much greater danger.

      As a corp exec, I should NEVER have had to waste my time posting anywhere and trying anything to get action going against IMBRA and VAWA etc.

      But except for Marc Rudov and the guys at Online Dating Rights dot com…the fight has been lonely…and even then we don’t cooperate at all…there is no coordination to get anything going to challenge IMBRA.

      But considering how much is at stake, it should not have been hard at all to get a million man march out of this.

      We NEED a volunteer plaintiff. I cannot do that now because my career is just too busy.

      About your saying “avoid IMBRA”:

      I hope I misunderstood what you meant. Surely you are not saying that you want the US to stand up antagonistically to Russia (now practically my home country and my friends)…while at the same time saying that, when the feminist unleash a vicious, vicious law to control and regulate males…we should avoid conflict?

      Maybe you did not just say that.

      Hopefully you are on board that this must be challenged…and what you just said was that individual males did not have to let this actually block their entire social life.

      I just explained that it won’t. I said that, if you want to meet someone on the same day or weekend, the US Government can block you from so quickly getting together.

      That is vicious and outrageous, but not the end of the world unless a poor American man could only afford to fly to Russia once in a lifetime and IMBRA blocked him from meeting what would have been his future wife on the last evening he was there.

      It is remotely possible that the woman the US government blocks…would have been the love of your life…but you are never going to know that because she was blocked.

      IMBRA basically blocks about 20,000 women from effectively meeting men via 6-10 sites that comply.

      But most sites refuse to comply with IMBRA or they fudge in scenarios like the above mentioned, where it would be ridiculous to tell two people they could not meet that evening because the woman could not get across town in 30 minutes to sign a stupid US government approval document.

      Nobody is saying that any of this will destroy my life personally…with the law in its present form and not what it might be 10 years from now when anti-feminists might all have a “record” that needs to be reported to all women they meet anywhere.

      With the new cell to cell technologies coming out, I can see cell phone messages popping up on women’s mobiles saying “Warning…you are in the vicinity of an anti-feminist American male. The US Embassy advises you to speak with him at your own risk”.

      It is just outrageous that this law exists, that’s all, for anything to build on it.

      Note that I specifically wrote a scenario above where it was 20 Degrees below zero in Moscow…showing why an alpha male would go online to meet a woman at that moment rather than do the obvious which would be to go to the pool or the mall where so many gorgeous women are easy to meet.

      More points:

      1) Sweden tried a law like IMBRA but it was struck down by a government finding that it was not constitutional.

      2) Bank tellers and store clerks…not my type. I go for university students or grads. Someone at a bar? Not likely to be my type. A college library or campus has often been the best place to meet someone cool to date.

      Is $8000 enough to fight a lawsuit or is that only for starters? I was told by a lawyer that I’d need $200,000 to fight a wrongful dismissal suit. That’s more than my net worth.

      Justice overpriced is justice denied. Lawyers are jerks because they charge $250/hour.

      I’m not saying I don’t agree with the article it is a good article. I just want to make 2 simple clear points.

      1. Notice how the entire IMBRA thing seems… The foreign woman sits back in her chair and “reviews your history,” before allowing contact with you. You are assumed to be scum or dirty because you are a “man.” So you must be “examined” before hand. This is all in a broader sense, I hope you see what I am trying to say?

      2. I don’t recommend dating anyone outside the USA because it can be USED against you like it was used against me. My ex-wifes layers used it against me “we your honor we have seen this before men bringing women out of the country here, blah blah blah… So I was painted as an “oppressor.” You know the story…

      Hi Zorik,

      $8000 will do the initial complaint, trial and finding of fact…which all happens in the first month or two (except the Hollander VAWA challenge has been strange having been filed in February and still not gone to trial).

      Most lawyers ask for $25,000 to handle through to the end of the district level.

      But my experience is that most lawyers are IDIOTS who would actually be working against you because they will not want to even imply that politics are going on behind the scenes to stop the separation of powers, etc.

      I would feel hamstrung with a lawyer.

      So I would rather give $8000 to someone in the US to do a pro se challenge himself or herself and let them spend that money on the court fees etc. A pro se challenger can ask the court for $150,000 to fight for his rights, saying that the law is unconstitutional and he needs the funds to challenge it. A judge who sees how bad IMBRA is, could easily end up funding the plaintiff with a lot of money.

      I really want to do this myself…but my career really is too exciting and I am always in Europe or the Middle East.

      I really cannot take even one week off.

      Plus, as Roger (who lives in Sweden) pointed out, women in Europe are so easy to meet when you are living here that, not only does IMBRA not hurt me so much but taking two weeks off to go the US to challenge would mean missing out on some great dates after work over here.

      Then again…the evil of IMBRA is that I will never know how badly not meeting a particular person hurt me.

      Check out http://www.veteransabroad.com/TRO.pdf to see what the next judge will probably say about IMBRA when he puts a restraining order on it immediately.

      All someone has to do is walk into a courtroom and challenge.

      It really is that easy. Theoretically, no money at all is required to start this and get an immediate TRO placed on the law.

      Just the 25 cents for the parking meter outside the courthouse.

      The ideal plaintiff would be a retired military man or otherwise financially independent person in the USA or the mother of any man in the MRM. Anyone can challenge IMBRA because anyone, including older American women, can claim that their right to say hello as been abridged by this. There is a website called http://www.meetmenfromeurope.com that an American woman can complain was put out of business by IMBRA.

      Stop dating. Take up shooting.

      During the cold war when totalitarian countries (Dating, in Moscow? Whaddyaknow. Hah!) were oppressing their peoples, we were advocating those peoples to take up arms against their overlords. Crikey, we even smuggled weapons to them (details suitably covered up, of course).

      Go to the Courts, by all means. Seek out a Judge to hear a ‘Plaintiff’s’ complaint. Exercise your own swift Judgement.

      Heck, vote for me instead do Obambiden and I’ll give you a shiny pointy badge and a box of FMJs.

      If not, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet.

      Well basically what this IMBRA thing is an atempt to stop american men from getting a foriegn woman. Foreign women act more like what a woman should act, ie the man is the man in the relationship and she is still the woman.
      The man is still the head of the family. A man can get married with exspectation that it will last.
      VAWA,IMBRA and all the other man hating, feminazi and unlawful garbage created under the colour of law will go away. Either because men stand up to it and abolish it or society collapses and the bastards who created it end up getting wiped out.
      God’s plan for the family is the only one that will work. The “failed social engineering experiment” of the feminazi’s and their “government codenfendants” will not last. Just like the Nazi’s and the Communist and all the other failed ideas , they will oneday be gone. The forces of righteousness will rise up and destroy them.

      Lets be very clear about what IMBRA is. It is a barrier to entry of Foreign Women. It is Feminist Fascism Per Se. It is a one sided Law created by the Legal Foundation of NOW to keep American Men at home with Feminized American Women. NOW and other US Feminists see what is happening with the marriage strike. And they see American Men increasingly marrying and courting Foreign Women.

      IMBRA is a recognition that American Men don’t want a relationship with a Feminist Woman. Despite the advocacy research of Gender Feminists at Rutgers and Fluff pieces about how a Land Whale Feminist is the ideal spouse. Rubbish and Men damned well know it.

      IMBRA and VAWA violate the Equal Protection Clause of the US Constitution. And Jim is 100% correct it violates our Free Speech rights. Worse it is a declaration by our US Government that American Men are abusers and Criminals, deprived of our Due Process Rights. It is an outrageous abuse of our Natural Rights that Governments can only uphold and have no right to take away. Maybe it is time for Another Boston Tea Party.
