Join the Jericho March Around USDOJ

(11 links) ANNOUNCING A NEW INITIATIVE:  THE JERICHO MARCH FOR JUSTICE!  Join Mary Neal in marching for seven days around the United States Department of Justice.  In biblical fashion, we will march peacefully and silently around the USDOJ in Washington.  If you cannot commute to Washington, go to the nearest federal building where U.S. Attorneys office is.  If you live in a small town, march around your court house.  Only peaceful, orderly marchers are invited, and check with authorities for the need for permits.  We will march silently for six days.  On the seventh day, we will make noise!  Bring whistles, bells, symbols, tambourines, party horns, whatever!  We will demand that the walls between the American people and justice come tumbling down (figuratively, of course). 

The love of money is the root of ALL evil. Just resolution of every issue has opposition from corporate interests that benefit financially by continuing or escalating conditions, including wars, weakened environmental protection, the attack on labor unions, high unemployment, rising gasoline prices, and the staggering incarceration rate. People petition representatives, organize protest marches, and make impassioned appeals for change. But capital punishment continues, thousands more jobs are outsourced monthly, war costs continue to mount, collective bargaining is undermined, human/civil rights are ignored, and funding for education and other social programs diminishes. These are business decisions, and each wrong decision prospers someone. Corporate overlords and many government officials are ONE.  That is why they are winning.  It is time for everyone who has a "beef" about justice in America to UNITE.  Your main concerns may differ from mine, but most problems stem from the corporate takeover of our government.  Let us march for justice together in the Jericho March and boycott together in the BOYCOTT 4 JUSTICE initiative (no shopping on the 9th of any month during 2011).  

See 25 reasons why it is important for Americans to UNITE.  Lay aside prejudice based on race and class and unite for justice.  We, and by extension the world, need to understand that WE are ONE.  See this article: BOYCOTT 4 JUSTICE: NO Shopping May 9 http://freespeakblog.blogspot.com/2011/04/boycott-4-justice-no-shopping-may-9.html

See more 25 reasons why the Jericho March and BOYCOTT 4 JUSTICE are needed in this article: HUMAN RIGHTS FOR PRISONERS MARCH  http://www.care2.com/c2c/share/detail/1114734

 

More about the Jericho March will be posted here this week.  Looking forward to your comments.

You can learn about the original march around Jericho at this link:  THE WALLS OF JERICHO - http://www.answersingenesis.org/articles/cm/v21/n2/the-walls-of-jericho

"After the seventh trip around the city on the seventh day, Scripture tells us that the wall ‘fell down flat’ (Joshua 6:20). The Hebrew here carries the suggestion that it ‘fell beneath itself.’ Is there evidence for such an event at Jericho? It turns out that there is ample evidence that the mudbrick city wall collapsed and was deposited at the base of the stone retaining wall at the time the city met its end."

World Experts Gather: Mental Health Equity Conference

(22  paragraphs, 12  links, 6 petitions )    PROGRESS REPORT:  This year's World Conference on Mental Health will focus on EQUITY. Members of Assistance to the Incarcerated Mentally Ill ("AIMI"), an online human/civil rights group, advocate for mental illness to be addressed with treatment like other chronic health conditions that require monitoring and care, such as heart disease or diabetes.  It is gratifying to know that this week, experts will gather to address inequities that mentally ill people face that actually constitute systemic discrimination against our most vulnerable citizens.  Homelessness, prison, and death must cease being America's answer for this common, highly treatable health condition.  Hopefully, mental health experts will acknowledge that it was a mistake to reduce America's inpatient beds by 90% since the 1960's, while simultaneously reducing community care programs and enacting rigid "immediate danger to self and others" laws that make crisis intervention nearly impossible to access until there are smoking guns and dripping knives.

IF EXPERTS ARE SERIOUS ABOUT MENTAL HEALTH EQUITY, THEY SHOULD SUPPORT H.R.619 TO RESUME MEDICAID FOR INPATIENT HOSPITAL INSURANCE COVERAGE AND RECOMMEND MANDATED PARTICIPATION IN ASSISTED OUTPATIENT TREATMENT PROGRAMS (AOTs) FOR MENTALLY ILL PERSONS EXITING AMERICA'S CORRECTIONAL FACILITIES AND PSYCHIATRIC HOSPITALS.

The only three reasons why 1.25 million mentally ill people are in prison today are (1) unavailable psychiatric services; (2) acute patients' inability to recognize their need for help; and (3) lack of subsistence assistance for mentally ill people who require it to avoid homelessness and hunger.  When all three of those critical needs are addressed, mental illness will be decriminalized (reducing crime and prison budgets), and hundreds of thousands of sick people will resume wholesome lifestyles.  The same remedies should be applied to address serious mental illness all over the world.  An excerpt from an article about the conference is below.

NEWTON, Mass., Nov. 15, 2010 - redorbit.com/news/health - More than 500 mental health researchers, practitioners, and advocates representing over 40 countries will gather for the Sixth World Conference on the Promotion of Mental Health and Prevention of Mental and Behavioral Disorders, November 17-19, 2010, at the Omni Shoreham Hotel in Washington, D.C. With the theme Addressing Imbalances:  Promoting Equity in Mental Health, the conference will focus on inequalities in care, research, and practice in ways that protect the most vulnerable.

Previous conferences in this biennial conference series have been held in Australia (2008), Norway (2006), New Zealand (2004), England (2002), and the United States (2000). Unique this year will be a focus on inequities in how mental health is promoted, and how mental illness is prevented and treated . . . With the recent economic crisis, global sensitivity about the impact on health and mental health has been heightened.

We Mad Climb Shaky Ladders, by Pamela Spiro Wagner 

(LaurelBooks) [Paperback] Amazon.com

"The poet's ability to examine her behavior is both edifying and harrowing." ~Baron Wormser

http://www.amazon.com/Mad-Climb-Shaky-Ladders-LaurelBooks/dp/1933880104

 I prayed for the conference attendees, and I prayed for the experts  on mental health care needs who will not be in attendance:  millions of people who are mentally challenged and their family members and close friends - stakeholders.  I prayed that God muzzle any prison investors at the conference; for their self-interests are directly contrary to the needs of psychiatric patients.  I was surprised to learn after my brother's secret arrest and murder that mental patients are treated so callously, especially in America.  Are brain damaged persons not citizens?  Do governments consider them sub-human?  Will their families continue being forced to pay taxes to imprison their sick loved ones when hospitalization and community care programs cost less?  Will security for patients, their families, and communities continue to suffer in a system that waits for crimes to be done by or to mentally ill people before responding - usually by imprisonment rather than treatment?

Most incarcerated mentally ill people are not murdered behind bars like Larry Neal was, but none of them are helped by being imprisoned, especially in torturous solitary confinement where they comprise over 60% of naked inmates in cold, closet-sized cells, 23 hours each day for months or years.  When I began advocacy to decriminalize mental illness in America, I believed that elected officials and experts did not understand the problems and needs of acute mental patients and their families.  AIMI members propose (a) mandated psychiatric treatment for patients exiting jails and hospitals, (b) subsistence assistance for those who require it, and (c) more hospital space for patients in crisis or those who require long-term containment due to crimes or extreme disability.  Then I learned that Kendra's Law, an AOT program, had already proved to reduce homelessness, hospitalization, arrests, and incarceration by roughly 90% among program participants in New York. With such an excellent success rate, what then is the excuse for not instituting AOT programs nationwide and worldwide? 

Crime and prison costs were practically eliminated regarding the AOT program participants.  Lives were saved, and people were restored to wholesome lives.  Obviously, mental health experts and lawmakers did not really need my efforts to know what must be done to decriminalize mental illness and eliminate homelessness among our most vulnerable citizens.  All decision makers need do is put the welfare of human beings above their stock portfolios and treat other people as they wish to be treated.

It is fitting for the Mental Health Conference to focus on equity.  The denial of records and accountability regarding my brother's murder proves that mentally ill Americans are not treated equally to dogs, whose abuse or murders are vigorously investigated and prosecuted. In the six  (6) petitions below, many mentally challenged people, their family members, and others who are concerned about justice and human rights share their experiences and insight on the issues that will be discussed at the conference. Petitioners' comments can be reviewed without the need to endorse the petitions.  Please consider what people most impacted have to say, and do the right thing.  They are also experts on mental illness.
(NOTE:  Signatures on these six petitions are sometimes prevented by cyberstalkers hired to block efforts to decriminalize mental illness.)

DOG JUSTICE FOR THE MENTALLY ILL - Petition for Justice 4 Larry Neal
http://www.petitiononline.com/Neal/petition.html
Petititoners ask the United States Department of Justice to investigate the secret arrest and murder of a lifelong mentally ill heart patient, my brother Larry Neal. (Select "view signatures.")

Justice 4 Larry Neal Petition
http://www.thepetitionsite.com/petition/380598497
See comments from across petitioners across the globe. It's a shame when people in other countries have to petition the U.S. to please be fair and tell an 88-year-old mother how and why her handicapped son died in secret government custody.

Justice 4 Jeremy Petition - Lifelong schizophrenic in CA prison hole  http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/JusticeForJeremy
California is breaking under its heavy prison debt but it has money to imprison a schizophrenic young man for EIGHT YEARS for merely hitting another mental patient in the mental hospital. Smith faces the possibility of additional sentencing for speaking insolently to a prison guard during a psychotic crisis - typical for severe mental patients. A conviction for "making terrorist threats" would be Jeremy's third strike. Prison profiteerism has practically bankrupted California.

PETITION TO SAVE SGT. RUSSEL - Hospitals, Not Prisons for Sick Soldiers & Vets!
http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/Save-Sgt-Russel
This petition supports a soldier who suffered a violent PTSD episode on the last part of his third tour of duty in a combat zone. Should he be imprisoned or treated?

Petition to Save Andre Thomas and Stop Executing Mental Patients
 http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/No-Executing-Mental-Patients
Andre Thomas has eaten both his eyes since imprisonment, but remains on Texas death row. A judge ruled that Thomas is "crazy but sane under Texas law" (his words).

The petition below shows some of the opposition to human rights advocacy, particularly if it threatens prison profits:

Stop Censorship and Terrorism Against Mary Neal
www.thepetitionsite.com/2/Justice4MaryNeal/
Human and civil rights protections requested to end censorship and endangerment to Mary Neal, advocate for decriminalizing mental illness and ending capital punishment, racism, classism, and hypocrisy in government.

Mentally challenged persons and their family members thank conference participants for focusing on equity this year.  May God bless attendees and decision makers with the mind of Christ, who states, "Such as you do unto ONE of the least of these, My  brethren, you do also unto Me." (Matt. 25:40) Mentally ill people simply need decision makers to practice the Golden Rule - http://www.teachingvalues.com/goldenrule.html - including journalists who refuse to report to the American people that congressional bill H.R.619 exists.

Justice Denied, a 21st Century Slave Song by Mary Neal

(34 stanzas, 4 lines ea)

One day Larry went missing

We looked for him high and low

For 18 days while he died in jail

“Have you got him?” The Jail said “NO!”

On August 1, police came

A dreaded knock on the door

“We have Larry’s body. He died in jail

Sorry. We won’t tell you more.”

“Well, tell it to our lawyers!

The Johnnie Cochran Firm!

Lynching is illegal!

You might get prison terms!”

“Over that sick coon? We doubt it!

But give it your best shot

We told him to stop singing loud; move on

But he would not!”

Mama cried silently as she signed her name

On the Cochran Firm’s contract

“Don’t let them kill other sick sons

Nothing can bring mine back.”

Lawyers gave us their assurance

And lots of tissues, too

Saying, “Dry your eyes, old Mama!

We’ll get justice for you.”

But The Cochran Firm tricked us

Their promises were only lies

They held Larry’s case inactive

And never asked how he died

The letters David McLaughlin sent

Were false, every one!

The Cochran Firm worked for the jail

Nothing was being done

Too late to hire other attorneys

When we discovered the fraud

Larry’s case file was empty

How could they do this? Oh, Lord!

“We’ll sue you for defrauding us

You can’t treat clients like this

Larry Neal was a person

The life he had was his!

We’ll tell the Bar about your fraud

The jury will make you pay

You deserve to lose your license

New clients won’t come your way!”

“Over that sick coon? We doubt it

But give it your best shot!

Police told him, ‘Stop singing loud; move on!’

But he would not!”

Tennessee Bar said, “No biggie”

Georgia Bar ignored our complaint

Judge Shoob said, “What Cochran Firm?

There is none in this state”

“But judge, look out your window

The Cochran Firm’s right there!

On TV every few minutes

Your Honor, please be fair!”

“Get out of this courtroom!

Johnnie Cochran’s dead

We’ve got his firm and got his name

Now don’t you make us mad!”

“We’ll take you back to court again

You have a poor defense!

Your office is just blocks away

You can’t say you don’t exist!”

“We said it; judge signed it

Now get out of our face

Plead for justice all you want

You are the wrong damn race!”

“Look Media - A court order!

No Cochran Firm in Georgia!

Please tell the people to watch out

I’ll send some copies to ya!”

“Don’t bother; not interested.

Their clients are mostly blacks

Who cares if lawyers trick those folks?

It’s time you learn the facts!”

“But Larry was a human being!

He had a right to live!

The Cochran Firm worked for the jail

His death’s a secret still

We’ll write letters to Congress

And report you on the Web!

Jails and lawyers are not allowed

To conspire to hide the dead!

Georgia courts can’t protect you!

Nor the media or BBB!

We’ll tell the public what you did

And civil rights groups – you’ll see!

We’ll sue in federal court for your fraud

The jury will make you pay!

You deserve to lose your license

New clients won’t come your way!”

“Over that sick coon? We doubt it

But give it your best shot!

Police told him, ‘Stop singing loud;

move on!’ But he would not!”

“Judge look at this fraud; listen to lies

They told right in this court!

They helped the jail hide Larry’s death

While under contract to us!”

“We disclaim our Georgia office

Our Memphis office, too

Dismiss this case right now, Judge Batten

We all depend on you.

Wherever Larry’s family sues us

We claim we don’t exist

Can’t let this case ever go to jury

Sick black folks won’t be missed

Judge, don’t honor their subpoena

To Shelby County Jail

Can’t let this family ever know

What happened to Larry Neal!

This family is ridiculous

To think federal court would care

that lawyers lie to evade justice

It’s an immaterial affair!”

“The Cochran Firm is right!”

Judge Batten did agree

“Case dismissed! Immaterial!

Don’t come here bothering me!”

“But Judge, they tricked us!

Helped police hide Larry’s death

He had a right to live his life

Regardless of his health!

Thank God! Here comes CHANGE!

We’ll tell Mr. Holder

He’ll investigate Larry’s murder

This cover-up is over!

Mr. Holder, they killed him

Under secret arrest in jail

Thank God, you’re here now

And justice cannot fail!”

“Were you waiting for me? Don’t be absurd!

Johnnie Cochran is Dead

We’ve got his firm and got his name

Now don’t you make us mad!

You don’t want to make us mad!”

Life and Death Matters: Death penalty: Neither just nor moral

(13 paragraphs, signature block, 6 links)  The article below is from the Blog of Dr. Robert Baldwin, a retired physician who now spends much of his time writing, teaching, and speaking about capital punishment from a faith, philosophical, and logical perspective.  His blog is  Life and Death Matters: Death penalty: Neither just or moral    

Monday, April 19, 2010

Death penalty: Neither just or moral
04/17/2010 - Tribune Editorial

More than a decade has passed since the state of Utah executed a convicted murderer. Now, as the state prepares to once again apply the death penalty, is a good time for Utahns and their elected leaders to consider abandoning this archaic and deeply flawed form of punishment.

In the interim between the execution of Joseph Mitchell Parsons in 1999 and the expected setting of a death date for Ronnie Lee Gardner, the legal, moral and ethical arguments supporting capital punishment in Utah have been eroding like sand castles at high tide.

That is because the state-sponsored killing of a human being, no matter howheinous the crime, is permitted by a system that has been proven beyond doubt to be inherently capricious, unfair and shockingly fallible. And, one by one, state legislatures across the country are deciding that they can no longer justify, even for merely financial reasons, retaining the death penalty as their supreme form of punishment. Already, 15 states have dropped the death penalty and some dozen others have looked at following suit. Lifetime imprisonment under severe restrictions, arguably worse than death, has become the preferred alternative.

Gardner, 49, was sentenced to die in 1985 for the shooting death of attorney Michael Burdell during an escape attempt at a Salt Lake City courthouse. Gardner, who had been brought to the courthouse for a hearing on robbery and murder charges (he was later convicted), also wounded a court bailiff before he was shot in the shoulder and recaptured. Earlier this month, the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear his latest appeal and the Utah Attorney General's Office has asked a judge to set a date for his execution by lethal injection.

The welcome retreat from the death penalty in the United States began after1994, a year in which there was an all-time high of 328 death sentences since the Supreme Court restored capital punishment in 1976. Last year brought just 106 new sentences. The downward trend has been driven by high-profile cases in which inmates have been sprung from death row by new evidence based on DNA testing, or by key prosecution witnesses recanting their testimony.

The Death Penalty Information Center has identified 129 inmates who have been released from death row since 1977 owing to new evidence. Nine were exonerated and freed last year after serving a combined 121 years behind bars. There simply is no denying that our system of capital punishment in the United States is unalterably broken. To continue to adhere to it is to tread beyond the bounds of what constitutes a humane, moral and just society.

****************

MARY'S COMMENTARY

Modern execution is most often done by lethal injection, as depicted in the last photo on this page.  But no method of execution can mask the barbaric exercise that it is.  It is impressive that Dr. Baldwin is using his retirement years to educate us on this subject.  After linking the article above to my FreeSpeakBlog, I wrote to thank Dr. Baldwin for his article and his voice against capital punishment.  I sent the comment to him at Facebook and asked him to join my friends circle there.  The computer censorship team immediately zapped my Facebook comment.  I do not know if Dr. Baldwin actually received it.  I read that the FBI is at work at Facebook now.  MSN recently reported that the FBI also works at Twitter and LinkedIn.  The report was remiss.  Cyberstalkers work across the entire Internet to curtail free press rights for everyone who writes online about wrongs that should be corrected in our justice system.  See an example of cybercensorship to protect the prison industrial complex at this two-minute YouTube video:  PRISONS EARN $878 MILLION ANNUALLY BY POISONING INMATES AND GUARDS, LAWSUIT ALLEGES - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=icRD77mugaI

I will try to contact Dr. Baldwin and see if he actually received my email.  I doubt it.  Cointelpro became aware of how useful computers are to We the People demanding justice several years ago when approximately 30,000 people met in a demonstration in Jena, Louisaina to protest discrimination against six African American youths who were subjected to racism in the justice system.  The demonstration drew people from all over America, and it was completely organized online.  Since then, the Internet has been monitored and controlled, particularly regarding advocacy that reveals problems and demands improvements in the justice system.  The elite discovered it is insufficient to own and control mainstream media, which censors news on demand, because millions of Americans now use computers to communicate about injustices that happen. 

Technology enabled commuters to capture video when B.A.R.T. officers stretched 22-year-old Oscar Grant on the platform of a San Francisco commuter train station and shot him in the back on January 1, 2009.  Officers tried to confiscate all of the video cell phones and digital cameras that onlookers were using to film the young father's murder while he was out with friends for the holiday.  But some commuters did not relinquish theirs.  Therefore, police were unsuccessful in attempts to hide Grant's murder as they did thus far regarding my brother's murder.  One of the police officers (the shooter) was charged with Grant's murder because so many people saw the murder.  Contrarily, my family has been denied all records and accountability for my brother's 18-day secret arrest and murder in Memphis Shelby County Jail, thanks in large part to a cover-up facilitated by the Johnnie Cochran Firm which pretended (under contract) to act as his wrongful death attorneys.  See Wrongful Death of Larry Neal - http://wrongfuldeathoflarryneal.com/  -

I agree with Dr. Baldwin that capital punishment is wrong.  I wrote seven reasons why it is wrong in a comment at Dr. Baldwin's blog at the sight of his article posted above.  When I visited his article, first my comment was invisible, then it suddenly appeared - probably more computer tricks.  Opposition to human rights for prisoners is strong among prison investors, who reap huge benefits because America imprisons 2.3 million people, including 1.25 million mentally ill citizens who should be in hospitals or in communtiy treatment programs, depending on their offenses.  Each inmate in the general prison population costs from $16,000 per year in Georgia to $60,000 per year in New York.  Sick prisoners and condemned persons cost significantly more than that.  Each condemned person costs taxpayers an additional $90,000 per year, according to the Death Penalty Information Center (DPIC).  That is why cybercensorship is used to limit human rights activists' ability to share valid reasons for ending capital punishment.

I have hundreds more cybercensorship videos that illustrate how determined the prison industrial complex is to continue America's skin trade, which moved from plantations to the prison industry after the Civil War.  When I sue for the illegal attacks against my freedom of press rights, I hope Dr. Baldwin and many of my network friends and members of online groups who are denied receipt of my emails and articles will join in the lawsuit.  Their rights are violated  like mine are when they are deprived of mail that is addressed to them or when the mail arrives blank.  That happened to ecards I sent to hundreds of people to protest a wrongful execution that was planned in Dr. Baldwin's state, Alabama.  Thomas Arthur passed his DNA test and the court received the forensic lab's results in July 2009, but the judge sealed Arthur's DNA results and the D.A.'s office reported plans to request Arthur's death warrant in August.  Innocence does not matter as much as it should in the criminal justice system.  See more about that drama by browsing at Google for "Mary Neal Thomas Arthur."

The death penalty needs to be repealed across the nation and around the world.  Apparently, they who censor online communications about the issue already know that people will likely respond to sound reasons why capital punishment should be repealed.  It is an immoral, expensive exercise in a system where many innocent people have been wrongly convicted and some were wrongly executed.  I join Dr. Baldwin in saying DEATH TO THE DEATH PENALTY!

Fingerprints, by Mary Neal

Dog Justice

Creativity, innovation, and individuality are are responsible for much that we enjoy in life, from scientific inventions to the arts. However, people are frequently ridiculed, ostracized, and punished - even murdered - for being different in any way. Discrimination is prevalent against minorities, GLBT people, foreigners, obviously poor or uneducated people, and nearly every new kid in a second grade class. Nothing is allowed except uniformity.
.
We are to conform. We are to think alike, dress alike, and react alike to all stimuli. Otherwise, we can expect to be punished. That is terribly wrong, because God loves diversity. He showed that throughout His creation by making every single person and thing different. No one even has the same fingerprint on two of her fingers! Diversity is good. But society doesn't tolerate diversity very well. This hurts people, and it hurts weak people worse. Acute mental patients CANNOT conform. Therefore, they are Tasered, gassed, warehoused in prisons sometimes without criminal charges, and some are killed. That is why you and I must STAND for those who cannot stand for themselves. We must SPEAK for those who have no voice, those who are shut away in solitary confinement prison cells because they are deemed to be "unacceptably different" and lack the wherewithal to modify their behavior to meet expected standards in society. Psychiatric patients need treatment, not imprisonment. It is illegal to treat dogs as some imprisoned mental patients are treated. We must share their pain and BE their solution.
.
Members of ASSISTANCE TO THE INCARCERATED MENTALLY ILL ("AIMI") advocate online to decriminalize mental illness. We believe that treatment should replace imprisonment as America's response to mental illness. Your help in this effort is needed. Donations are appreciated, and there are other ways to assist. Representative Eddie Johnson introduced H.R.619 to resume Medicaid funding for inpatient psychiatric treatment. Withdrawal of that funding led to today's crisis of 1.25 million sick people being imprisoned, some of whom have no criminal charges but were interned on lunacy arrests. Please ask your representatives to support H.R. 619. The public cannot care about conditions they do not know about. Please visit my line-up of articles at http://NowPublic.com/duo and at Care2 - http://www.care2.com/news/member/513396753?sort=submitted as well as my blog http://freespeakblog.blogspot.com/ Share them with others in your blogs, and address the issue of decriminalizing mental illness when you comment on news, write emails, and when you converse with friends and family. Not long ago, victims of child abuse and domestic violence were too afraid of being stigmatized to ask for help. After numerous brave survivors aired their issues on talk shows and sought justice against their abusers in court, public policy changed. More help was made available in terms of shelters and stronger laws. The stigma associated with such victimization was reduced by people who laid their problems before the public. You can help to raise public awareness about criminalizing mental illness, an issue that devastates the lives of millions of Americans - sick people and their families.
.
Read a success story about an AIMI member's son, William. William could be imprisoned right now just like Jeremy Smith, another member's son who is facing a possible life sentence in a California prison. Jeremy Smith hit another mental patient at his mental health facility, but caused no lasting damage. Upon arrest, Jeremy was rude to a guard. His sentence may be lengthened, as he was charged with making "terrorist threats." Inmates who are schizophrenic like Jeremy often have time added to their sentences. Both William and Jeremy acted inappropriately due to mental illness. After a prolonged search, William's mother was able to find a good program for him in North Carolina where he is progressing. Jeremy Smith, on the other hand, is in solitary confinement. See comments about William's progress at this link http://www.care2.com/c2c/groups/disc.html?gpp=17280&pst=854483 and compare them to Jeremy Smith's regression while suffering in "the hole": Justice 4 Jeremy Petition - http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/JusticeForJeremy

Jeremy and many other psychiatric patients can be restored to useful, wholesome lives. Like any other chronic disease, acute mental illness requires treatment. Besides the fact that treatment accessibility is inadequate in the U.S., many psychiatric patients do not recognize their own need for treatment. Patients whose sense of reason is compromised by mental illness, especially those experiencing a crisis, need someone else to make treatment decisions for them. Therefore, in addition to increasing the availability of psychiatric services, we must stop waiting until crimes are committed before relieving patients of making their own mental health care choices. A small percentage of mentally ill offenders need permanent hospitalization - containment in a secure healing environement rather than life in prison. For others, mandated psychiatric treatment upon prison or hospital release is vital to their ability to function outside of a controlled environment.
.
It would be significantly less expensive and more humane to provide quality community care programs and inpatient facilities for crisis patients and those requiring long-term care than it is to imprison people, usually after avoidable tragedies. To decriminalize mental illness would advance public safety and reduce the suffering sick Americans endure for being "unacceptably different." For many centuries, acute mental patients were treated as sub-human, and that standard has returned in 21st century America. It is illogical to relegate over a million people to dungeons because they need treatment they may have been deprived of or lacked the rationale to accept. The list of people who made valuable contributions to society despite mental illness is very impressive and includes masters in the field of science, the arts, and government. A life is a terrible thing to waste.

You are invited to visit AIMI online and consider joining our advocacy group at this link: http://www.Care2.com/c2c/group/AIMI - AIMI is an avenue for us to channel our collective voice. Let us use it. Let us say loud and clear, CHANGE how mentally ill people in America are treated. We will NOT stand mute while they are imprisoned rather than treated for having a common, treatable health condition. We will not ignore their cries and their families' agony as they are being destroyed.

One in five people in America is estimated to suffer from some type of mental illness. I had a sick brother named Larry Neal, a lifelong schizophrenic heart patient who spent 20 years as an inpatient until hospitals closed and downsized in the 1970's and community psychiatric care became less available. Those events caused hundreds of thousands of mental patients like Larry to revolve in and out of prisons and jails for public displays of their psychotic disorders. Larry's repeated arrests culminated in his jailhouse death in 2003 and the birth of AIMI. There are many others like Larry who require better accessibility to mental health care. Some elected officials care about what their constituents care about. Help more people to know and care about this issue. Become an advocate for change by supporting the effort to decriminalize mental illness. Please don't let Larry's death and Jeremy Smith's cruel imprisonment be in vain.

Like fingerprints, everyone is different. We all have certain strengths and weaknesses. One certainty is that all people experience disabilities if they live long enough. But no one should be punished for having a disability, especially with a less expensive option available that is more humane, just, and safer for disabled individuals and the general public. Help bring America out of the Dark Ages. Dogs have protections in America that mentally ill citizens lack. If our canine friends were kept in a small, dark, cold, isolated space for 23 hours a day, most of us would report the abuse. Yet 60% of inmates in solitary confinement are mentally ill. See the petition calling for DOG JUSTICE for Larry Neal and other mentally ill inmates at this site: http://www.petitiononline.com/Neal/petition.html . Please demand that treatment replace incarceration for the mentally ill people in your state.  To see videos with real-time censorship and terrorism to prevent human rights advocacy, including advocacy to pass H.R.619 for mental hospital insurance, please visit my YouTube channel jkempp703 at this link - http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=jkempp703&aq=f

YouTube HELP! by Mary Neal

The link that was on the browser line above this YouTube Help Forum request CHANGED and is no longer a link on my view. I am reposting my help request here in case THEY make my help request disappear. At first the web page with my YouTube Help Forum topic had a regular link in the browser above it that began with "http://" but now it has "email: MaryLovesJustice@gmail.comemail: MaryLovesJustice@gmail.com " I thought I had seen everything cyberstalkers could do, but now it appears they can CHANGE links to non-links. Below is my request.

Would YouTube Please MAIL me a new password? My gMail is Cyberstalked.

email: MaryLovesJustice@gmail.com
Name: Mary Neal, Director of Assistance to the Incarcerated Mentally Ill
YouTube Channel: Prestojive

Months ago, I posted one video to Prestojive at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iK4Eig5M8K4 - I don't usually publish it because my cyberterrorism and in-person stalking was so intense that I had a bad hair day. I had been forced out of my home the day I made Cochran Firm 3 video. Cyberstalkers had taken over my home computer because I had a pleading due in United States District Court regarding Hattie Neal and Mary Neal vs. The Cochran Firm. As a pro se plaintiff, I'd work on a pleading for weeks, but when it was time to finalize and file it with the court, I'd frequently find that my data was scrambled, my printer program was missing, or I would be locked out of my own PC. Cyberstalkers also disabled my ports so I could not save data on a flash drive, and they removed the program for saving on discs. They put my PC on a network over which THEY are administrators and relegated me to the guest account to prevent my reloading needed programs. All of that illegal interferrence usually left me only hours to reproduce my pleadings and file them with the court in downtown Atlanta. But by the Grace of God, I made the deadlines! That is what I had undergone on the day I made the video at the link above. Afterwards, I was followed to a relative's home where I made the film. It is awfully hard to stand for justice in the New America and dangerous, too.

I recently had someone post another video at YouTube that illustrates the cybercensorship I am subjected to at http://tinyurl.com/ycbkpfy called "PRISON LABOR PROFITS." In 2008 after I escaped the four cars of stalkers and USDOT truck, I had someone post the two Cochran Firm Fraud videos at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r1ltCpy1uu0 and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQ5d_wju2M8 . What I tried to do today was log in at my Prestojive account where I posted Cochran Firm Fraud 3 and put the new cyberstalking video in paragraph 1 as a response video. In fact, I would like for them all to be on one channel or response videos to each other.

The cyberstalkers somehow prevented me from logging in as Prestojive, and I don't want YouTube to send me a new password to my gMail account. I input the correct password repeatedly already. THEY sometimes prevent my passwords from working so I have to request new ones. It happens repeatedly regarding my account at Voting Central. I reported it in this blog: http://freespeakblog.blogspot.com/2009/12/cointelpro-at-voting-central-against.html . [After Voting Central sent me a new password and I was allowed to access the account, it happened again. I am now locked out of Voting Central. I sent a new request for another password, but perhaps the cyberstalkers got to the email first. I do not have it. ] My Voting Central polls regard human rights for prisoners, The Cochran Firm fraud, and enforced H1N1 vaccines. My censorship team objects to such discussions as I raise at Voting Central Polls: http://www.votingcentral.com/VotingCentral/vcUser.do?userName=MaryNeal

When new passwords are sent to me at gMail, cyberstalkers use the opportunity to get access to my passwords they don't already have. They moderate my gMail and delete emails they do not wish for me to receive. Usually, they delete messages about my new Twitter followers before I see them, then delete the people from Twitter. Today, I received an email from Change.org about a march for mentally ill inmates, but I opened another email first. When I was ready to view the email from Change.org, it was already GONE! When I try to send emails the cyberstalkers object to, they frequently prevent them. Either gMail will have an error code or the cyberdogs will just bump me offline. If I censor myself and refrain from sending emails to African American groups, prisoner activist groups, and civil liberties organizations, the censorship team is more inclined to allow my emails to be sent.

Since my gMail account is cyberstalked and changing my password doesn't seem to help, would YouTube send me a new password for Prestojive account in the mail? They may monitor my U.S. Mail, too, but I hope not. We are using my post office box to take requests for CDs containing examples of my online censorship across many Internet sites. They definitely already took over our phone service at 678.531.0262 and other numbers before that one. Therefore, I take no chances on mailing out the CDs. I don't use my home mailbox or take them to the post office myself. I would be followed, and who knows what they would do to my mail? Many people have no respect for U.S. Mail. The Cochran Firm sent my elderly mother and me lying letters while they were under contract as Larry Neal's wrongful death attorneys to tell us about our civil action case against Shelby County Jail. However, there was never any civil action case for Larry even started. The law firm was only tricking us to protect the jail after Larry's secret arrest and murder. http://wrongfuldeathoflarryneal.com/ People must have some way to communicate, so we will try the mail until it proves to be unsafe, too.

If YouTube would mail me a new password for my Prestojive channel in order to help me have a semblance of Net Freedom, my mailing address is: MaryLovesJustice, P.O. Box 153, Redan, GA 30074.

Thanks in advance.

Déjà vu, America

Where have you seen the erosion of civil rights We the People experience happen before? OUR WEBSITE IS UNDER ATTACK. I cannot get past page 1 at Wrongful Death of Larry Neal.com - http://wrongfuldeathoflarryneal.com/ - My 86-year-old mother and I find it difficult to keep replacing PCs and having technicians wipe them clean after cyberattacks. Evil people in high positions have the wealth to continuously pay for illegal cyberstalking, maybe with your tax money. The federal government has a division to track cybercrimes. I asked for federal help long ago. I completed a long online application for assistance with my Net Freedom. My elderly mother and I do not know where to turn when followed, accosted, phonetapped, censored, and terrorized online and in person except to the authorities. But now I know more about the situation.

The U.S.A. historically goes to the aid of oppressed people. Where do families in America have to turn when oppressed? To whom do we appeal for help when our disabled loved ones are secretly arrested and exterminated, like Larry Neal? Who can we turn to regarding H.R.645, the FEMA camp plan? Who will tell our leaders that we need improvements on streets and surface bridges where FREE people travel, not railroad improvements possibly for transporting the masses to places they would rather not go?

The cyberstalking is relentless. I capture videos of real-time cyberstalking and offer copies to the public by donating and requesting a CD at P.O. Box 153, Redan, GA 30074. Sample film w/ my data re: prisoner abuse being covertly CHANGED was uploaded at YouTube at this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=icRD77mugaI There is much information that people, especially human rights activists, need to know in order to recognize when their electronic communications are being compromised. I am not trained in computer technology and cannot advise how to secure your PCs. Anti-virus programs do not work for me. However, I have been able to alert other human rights organizations when their online data was attacked like mine - links removed from your electronic data or leading nowhere, your links coded to insert spaces upon being copied/pasted or when you hit "send" on emails to render them useless, emails being coded to present with text running together (inadequate spacing between top and bottom lines), selected text in blogs and articles coded to disappear upon copy/paste, large white spaces disbursed throughout your electronic documents that can be used to drag data thereto and render it invisible to readers, and more. The disappearing text trick was used on ecards I sent with information about Cameron Todd Willingham's wrongful execution and ecards about Thomas Arthur's pending wrongful execution. The ecards arrived to addressees blank - the data was gone. Care2 reported a cyberattack in the ecard area on the day I sent ecards about Thomas Arthur having passed his DNA test in July and plans being made to ask for his death warrant in August while his DNA test results were held under seal by the court to prevent the world knowing that he is likely innocent. Censorship revealed on my videos was and is still used against me to prevent prisoner activism and public exposure regarding The (Johnnie) Cochran Firm fraud, and it requires collusion among numerous parties. It takes ongoing cooperation by various oversight agencies and the justice system to continually deny human and civil rights for my murdered brother and deny his family any records and accountability after his death. Part of my censorship and cyberterrorism is done to prevent my advocacy for 1.25 million mentally ill inmates and keep them incarcerated, because prison profiteering is very lucrative. I am also stalked in person and denied police services. See Cochan Firm Fraud videos 1 and 2 at YouTube.

Larry Neal (1949 - 2003)

If I knew how to actually protect online data (and I suppose there really is no way to do that), I would prevent cyberstalkers from attacking my website regarding my unfortunate brother, Larry. He became mentally ill at age 8 when infection from mumps entered his brain. After spending 20years in a mental institution, he was released along with hundreds of thousands of other such patients in the 1960's and 70's. Like many of them, Larry was caught in the revolving door to correctional facilities. Corrections? The only way to correct acute mental illness like Larry's schizophrenia is and has forever been community treatment for some, and long-term hospitalization for more acute cases like Larry's. Instead, police tired of their role as psychiatric caretakers for the mentally ill heart patient and ended his life. Larry was secretly arrested for 18 days while police disclaimed his incarceration, which denied Larry access to his vital heart and psychiatry drugs. Maybe they Tasered him to death. They refuse to say, and the USDOJ refuses to ask. How is that for democracy? Many mentally dysfunctional Americans are killed or cruelly imprisoned in isolation cells for months or years, naked. That is "treatment for mental illness" USA-style. The attacks on our website began this week when I phoned numerous law firms about representing my family in a civil rights lawsuit concerning the many violations against our family under U.S. Code 18, sections 242 and 245, and other applicable law. Authorities find it more convenient to allow my family and me to suffer terrorism and censorship than to prosecute Larry's murderers and officials who collude to cover up his death under secret arrest.

The same DOJ that issued orders to torture detainees in offshore War on Terror camps was in office when Larry was murdered. The same former U.S. attorney general who was indicted in Wallacy, Texas in 2008 for withholding DOJ investigations regarding inmate abuses in return for kickbacks was in office when the DOJ ignored Larry's murder and accepted Shelby County's fraudulent testimony at Release hearings. It is disappointing and shameful that the DOJ under the new administration is unwilling to judiciously address prisoner torture and murders either in the offshore camps or domestic correctional facilities where Americans like Larry are murdered. I had hoped that under the new administration, I would no longer have to stay home for safety combatting cyberstalking online to notify the world about our abuse. Yet, I am still followed and terrorized, and my online interference continues. The Freedom of Information Act request I filed in May 2009 was answered months later with the DOJ declaring its refusal to release any records about Larry's murder. (Browse for my FOIA online.) The cover-up continues while U.S. officials criticize China and Iran for murdering their citizens and practicing censorship and our soldiers fight in the sand for human rights where other governments killed their citizens.

The (Johnnie) Cochran Firm denied the existence of its Atlanta, Georgia office to have the Neals' lawsuit against the firm for its fraud dismissed in May 2006, saying the suit was served wrongly since no Georgia office of The Cochran Firm existed. The Cochran Firm's Atlanta office is prolifically advertised and is within view of Georgia Superior Court, yet the judge agreed with the Neals' defendants and dismissed our lawsuit. Our case was dismissed although The Cochran Firm's Atlanta office undoubtedly had numerous cases pending before the same court where it was declared "nonexistent," and the firm continues to contract with other unsuspecting consumers using the identity it denied in court, such as Kathryn Johnston's survivors. Johnston was the 92-year-old African American woman Atlanta police murdered duing a 2006 no-knock warrant home invasion. The fact that The Cochran Firm denied the existence of its Georgia office in court proceedings in 2006 should have been top news, but Larry Neal's murder and The Cochran Firm's fraud to protect Shelby County Jail against public exposure and the need to pay damages for his wrongful death are censored topics. When a government turns communist, a media takeover is vital.
.

Doctors who trained torture experts for Guantanamo and Gitmo and persons who carried out the DOJ's torture orders were promised they would never be prosecuted for their part in the war crimes, and The Cochran Firm must have been promised it would never be sued for helping Shelby County Jail and the DOJ hide Larry's murder. After Georgia Superior Court declared the Atlanta office of The Cochran Firm "nonexistent" and dismissed the Neals' lawsuit in 2006, my mother and I sued The Cochan Firm under the diversity rule in United States District Court in 2007. Our stalking and censorship intensified. My computer was repeatedly illegally taken over by remote access and placed on a network. The network administrator is able to determine which sites I can browse to and what input I can upload on the Internet. For a long time, I was prevented from going to sites owned by elected officials or the media. Perhaps this was done merely to prevent a record of the elected officials and media companies having been informed about Larry's murder cover-up and The Cochran Firm's fraud. Nothing was done when they were informed to assist my family's justice quest or to protect other mostly minority consumers of legal services at that firm. The federal court ruled last year that The Cochran Firm's fraud against Larry's survivors to prevent our suit against Shelby County Jail was "immaterial." USDC saved The Cochran Firm from a jury trial just like Georgia Superior Court did in 2006 on grounds that were equally ridiculous. The very fact that the USDC accepted Neals vs. The Cochran Firm under the diversity rule was pretty ridiculous, since the law office was only a short walk away from the courthouse. The diversity rule requires that plaintiffs and defendants reside in different states.

Terrorism and censorship may have been meant to dissuade the Neal family from pursuing justice in court. In case the stalkers were hired to do me bodily harm, I stayed home for over a year, especially after Duanna Johnson's murder on November 11, 2008. (She was a Memphis resident who planned to sue Shelby County Jail for police brutality she suffered there in February 2008). Cochran Firm attorney Angela Mason filed a pleading in USDC in February 2008 complaining that Mary Neal should not say an attorney in her firm had hired a Caucasian man in a white truck to follow her. I notified the court that there is no way Mason should know the color of the vehicle stalking me because I had never told anyone the color, but the court ignored my need for protection. The judge, a Bush appointee, dismissed our lawsuit against The Cochran Firm on February 9, 2009. A few days after the USDC judgment, on February 17, The Cochran Firm published a YouTube video advertising its Atlanta office to the whole wide world, which it never stopped doing, actually. The VIDEO is at this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vlcolpUzckU. I suppose the judges, the DOJ, Shelby County Jail officials, and Cochran Firm lawyers got a kick out of that. The Neal family are not the only citizens who are denied jury trials. I read this week that the CIA plans to start assassinating Americans abroad who are considered to be a threat. There was no mention of a jury trial for those citizens before execution, either. The Constitution is being overthrown little-by-little every single day.

ALL IT TAKES FOR EVIL TO TRIUMPH IS FOR GOOD MEN TO DO NOTHING. Germany had never seen anything like the Third Reich before Hitler's regime. Nazi takeover of Germany's government and enslavement of that nation and neighboring countries was something new. What's your excuse?

There is a difference between shame for wrongdoing and concern about being exposed. My online interference is meant to protect information about Larry's murder and my family's victimization that authorities truly do not care about, but they are concerned that We the People might see something wrong with secretly arresting private citizens and murdering them, then denying the victims' survivors any records or accountability whatsoever. I captured a page from our website before it disappears to share with you. The bold text should be links in the USDOJ page from our website, which is copied below.

After The (Johnnie) Cochran Firm tricked my family while the statute of limitations passed to sue the jail for Larry's wrongful death, we discovered that the firm had done no legal work regarding Larry's death that it contracted with my elderly mother to do immediately after Larry's demise. The firm's letters to us about legal work it was doing were lies, mail fraud. Therefore, in 2005 I wrote the DOJ, which was in overview of the jail, and requested the jail's report regarding Larry's death. The DOJ replied that it had received no inmate fatality report about Larry Neal, which violated the terms of the Agreement under the lawsuit, USA vs. Shelby County Jail. Please note that the USDOJ admits at a 2007 document at Exhibit 14 that Shelby County Jail's 2006 Release hearings still omitted revealing Larry's death in that facility. That means Shelby County officials' testimony in federal Release hearings was fraudulent by omission. Although the DOJ knew about Larry's secret arrest and jailhouse death in 2005 and refused to investigate it, the DOJ accepted Shelby County's false testimony in the USDC Release hearings in 2006 that omitted a death the jail chose not to report. The DOJ knew Shelby County's testimony at the federal Release hearings was false - knew Larry's murder was being covered up. (Exhibits are pdf documents at http://www.wrongfuldeathoflarryneal.com/story/story04.html )

US Department of Justice

Shelby County Jail had such a grievous record of violations of inmates’ civil rights that in 2000, the jail was sued by the United States of America. At the time of Larry’s death, the jail was operating under the terms of a settlement agreement related to that suit. Section IV of the Agreement between the United States of America and Shelby County Jail specifically required that the jail make a semi-annual report to the Justice Department. The semi-annual report was to include the individual monthly reports, which the jail was required to keep regarding its operations, as well as mortality review reports on any deaths of inmates during the reporting period. [See Ex. 10 – Agreement - USA/Shelby Co., Section IV.] In May 2005, I wrote a letter to the Justice Department, which was addressed to Terrell L. Harris, Mellie Nelson, Mary Bohan, and Tammie Gregg, and requested Shelby County’s report on Larry’s death. The Justice Department reported that that agency never received any report regarding Larry Neal from Shelby County Jail/ Government. [See Ex. 11 – Lt to USDJ and Response 1.] [See Ex. 12 – USDJ Report 7-26-2005.]

Larry’s family believed strongly that the reason The Cochran Firm accepted Larry’s wrongful death case was partly to protect Shelby County Jail from reporting its breach of that jail’s Agreement with the U.S.A. regarding inmate intake procedures and the care of the mentally ill and physically handicapped persons under arrest in that facility.[See Ex. 10 – Agreement – USA/Shelby Co., Section III]

Larry’s family realized that any reports from the jail to the Justice Department that included July and August 2003 and failed to report Larry’s incarceration and death were misleading at best, and likely fraudulent. Larry’s family wanted to verify that the Shelby County Jail had in fact lied by omission in its failure to report to the Justice Department information about Larry’s incarceration and death. Therefore, on March 29, 2006, I sent a request under the Open Records Act to Chief John L. Wodatch, of the United States Justice Department, for copies of the jail’s reports that included July and August 2003. For 16 months, we received no response from The Justice Department regarding our request for reports from Shelby County Government/Jail for the time period when Larry was incarcerated and died in that facility. [See Ex. 13 – Lt to USDJ – 3-29-06.]

May 2007, I wrote United States senators asking for their help in ascertaining records and justice for Larry, and requesting that our government rethink its current trend of jailing rather than hospitalizing severely mentally ill Americans. Thanks to intervention by Senator Chambliss, on August 15, 2007, the Justice Department finally responded to our March 2006 letter. However, the Justice Department’s response did not include a single copy of any record filed by Shelby County Jail for the time period of Larry’s secret incarceration and death. Instead, Nelson D. Hermilla, of the Freedom of Information/Privacy Acts Branch of the Civil Rights Division of the Justice Department, wrote, “After extensive search in the Civil Rights Division, we are unable to locate records responsive to your request . . .” [See Ex. 14 – USDJ Report 8-15-07.] The Justice Department did not explain why Shelby County Jail was apparently allowed to ignore its reporting responsibilities under the terms of its Agreement with the United States of America. Mr. Hermilla’s letter conflicted with information from the Shelby County Attorney, Brian L. Kuhn. Mr. Kuhn plainly stated in his August 17, 2006 letter to me that the jail’s semi-annual report, including a critical incident review report about Larry’s death, had been filed with the United States Department of Justice in accordance with the terms of the jail’s Agreement with the United States of America.

It is my understanding that in 2006, the Justice Department released Shelby County Jail from overview under the terms of the 2001 Agreement between the United States of America and Shelby County Jail. The Justice Department refuses to conduct an investigation regarding Larry Neal’s death, which occurred at that facility during the time of federal overview. Perhaps the Justice Department seeks to avoid shedding more light on an embarrassing problem – our nation’s lack of care for its mentally ill citizens. In October 2003, the year Larry died, Human Rights Watch, an organization dedicated to protecting the human rights of people around the world, issued a report indicating that America has more mentally ill persons in jail than in hospitals and that mentally ill offenders face mistreatment and neglect while incarcerated. (http://hrw.org/english/docs/2003/10/22/usdom6472.htm)

Please contact your congressional representative today and demand that hospitalization replace incarceration for the mentally ill people in your state. http://www.house.gov/writerep

**********

Forbes.com recently named Memphis as the third most miserable city and cited two reasons: a high violent crime rate and a high number of convicted officials. The cities that made Forbes.com's "miserable cities" list ahead of Memphis are being mistreated by my cyberstalking and censorship. As a city where officials collude to cover up the murder of a handicapped citizen who died under secret arrest due to causes that illegally remain undisclosed after six years, Memphis should be listed first.

China and Iran are hotly criticized by the U.S. for killing their own citizens and practicing censorship. Larry Neal's secret arrest and extermination followed by media censorship to keep that murder quiet and terrorism against Larry's family to prevent our justice quest regarding his death and my advocacy for 1.25 million other mentally ill inmates prove that U.S. criticism against other countries for murdering citizens and censoring news is hypocrisy. That is why I cannot upload my cyberstalking videos at this blog and had to have someone else upload the one that is at YouTube. That is why I had to cower in a Chevron station while pursued by four vehicles led by a USDOT truck on September 27, 2008, and police ignored my 911 call. That is why people sit outside my home in their cars and my family and I are frequently followed. That is likely also why the people who moved in across the street from my home had deliveries by a USDOT truck the week they came to my neighborhood. That is why a lie was posted at my phone number, 678.531.0262, saying the phone is not in service or callers are directed to a voicemail box my family cannot access and we receive no notice of callers' messages. That is why my own phone calls are frequently blocked, depending on who I try to call. That is why I visit my websites sometimes, like last night, and see a message saying the site is unavailable and may be permanently deleted. All of that was and is done for one simple reason: The FEMA camps and railroads are not ready yet. Be aware, oh silent one, that with six camps proposed under H.R. 645, there is more than enough room for the Neal family and yours.
_______________

Both the Georgia Superior Court and USDC court cases are available online. Witness affidavits attesting to my stalking were filed in USDC, and I have others to pick up from more witnesses. Because I am aware of the stalkers, I only go where there are plenty of people and avoid being away from home after dark; therefore, many people observed the crimes. Proof of my censorship and cyberterror is on the videotapes I recorded during the last couple of years as well as on printscreen snapshots of Internet sites showing the "site down for maintenance" signs I would reach to prevent my access, coffin ads and violent advertising that are peculiar to my computer, and more. We are prevented from going before a jury because of the abundance of evidence that after Larry's murder and the cover-up that is still in effect, his family's civil rights were and are violated to prevent due process of law and to punish us for even asking "What happened to Larry Neal?" My calls and emails are frequently blocked. Please forward this blog to attorneys and all persons organizations who you believe care about civil and human rights. You may be surprised at their reaction or lack thereof. (According to data to Congress.org stats, my petition for relief from terrorism and cyberstalking was among the most read citizens' writing in July 2009, and I wrote many senators in 2007 using U.S. Mail, so many of your representatives know about (and agree with?) our terrorism. Cyberstalkers prevent my opening my petition, but you should be able to reach it at this link - http://www.thepetitionsite.com/2/justice4maryneal or by inputting "Petition to Stop Censorship and Terrorism Against Mary Neal" in your browser. I hope cyberdogs have not deleted it, but they do that.)
