1. Syracuse Update - Door locked & Meeting Tuesday (Aug 31).
-----------------------------------------------------------
Details: http://www.AKidsRight.Org/actionc_syr

John Murtari returned to the Syracuse Federal Building again on
Wednesday and Thursday.  He stayed close to one of two doors into the
building (effectively blocking the door since the officer was blocking
his way).  It was a bit surprising to see how much they do NOT want an
arrest to occur now. They are willing to lock one of the two doors to
the building and post a private guard to watch him as he stands right
outside the door holding 'our' petition to the Senator.

John expresses his GREAT thanks to all of you who have called and
written the Senator's offices (more messages below).

He would like to meet with people willing to help setup a meeting with
Senator Clinton. He will be standing outside the building on Monday
and Tuesday from 2pm-4pm (prior to the Court appearance).  It presents
a good opportunity for people to get together and meet each other in
person to discuss goals and plans.  If you plan on coming you can call
John at his office: 877-635-1968,x-211 between 8am-noon on
Monday/Tuesday.

2. Appearance in Syracuse Federal Court - Aug 31, 4pm
-----------------------------------------------------
John Murtari has an appearance scheduled at 4pm on Tuesday, Aug 31, in
front of US Federal Magistrate Judge DiBianco at 4 PM.  The Court is
open to the public and you are welcome to attend! The appearance is to
finalize a 'stipulation' regarding the 4 arrests that occured this
Spring. It will allow the Judge to more quickly deliver a decision and
probable jail sentence.

After some full trials and pending appeals (with counsel) on earlier
arrests John proposed to proceed 'pro se' and to stipulate to the
facts to 'expedite' the process and keep costs down since the facts in
the arrests are all identical.  It was to also help reduce the number
of 'consecutive' sentences by allowing rapid sentencing.

One important item John hopes to address with the Court is the current
action of Building officials to basically 'push' him out of the
building.  John does not resist this physical handling, but plans on
objecting to the Judge regarding that type of conduct and his concern
of what might happen in future events...

4. Your FEEDBACK - on Senator Clinton
-------------------------------------
No matter how you may feel about her. Let us all remember Senator
Clinton is a VERY good politician and wants to be President.  If we
can't get enough public support to convince her Family Reform is
important -- what does that say about the reform effort?  We need to
'move' people in this country to rethink Family rights and I'm sure
she'll want to be on the right side of the issue.  Do we expect her to
take 'action' before we do?

Yes, you have some good ideas.  But the problem is just getting people
involved enough to actually come to the building.  It is pretty rare
that even one person shows up.  I can see that they have decided NOT
to arrest me even if it means locking one of the doors and posting a
private guard to watch me...

Senator Hillary Rodham-Clinton
United States Senate
New York
Subcommittee on Children and Families

Dear Senator Clinton:

> I watched your husband yesterday on the Oprah show, the last half

> nation to become better families. I am writing to you on behalf of
> Family Rights Reform.

> Forgiveness is a very strong emotion, and not many Americans today
> can forgive. It took me 10 years to forgive my ex-husband. Can you

> not have the guts to forgive the other parent and resulted in
> divorce like myself?

> I believe if there was more forgiveness in this world, maybe our

> good and bad, war and peace, through hunger and prosperity. Is this
> how Americans do it? NO, WE DIVORCE and take the money, take the
> house, take the pension, take the children.

> Take away the incentive for divorce; the money, the house, the
> children, etc. there would be less of them.  Divorce, common sense
> wise, what you bring in is what you take out, everything liquidated,
> and each 50/50.  What I find inspiring is for the children to stay

> do you think this would result in fewer disputes over the money, the

> house; both parents provide child support, and the children have
> BOTH PARENTS. What an insane idea putting the children first, the

> the child � giving the other parent financial relief if the child is
> not there full time � Shared Parenting. New shoes $50, new clothes
> $100, school supplies $150, TIME with your Dad or Mom; TIME WITH
