Kidnapped by Police: Georgia Needs Moms

In Georgia, if you want to make a lady blush, remind her of the peach she is. But beware, she can be quite the sour peach, as well. And when the state known for its southern hospitality, beautiful landscapes, and delightful peaches comes under scrutiny for carrying out a modern-day witch hunt, you can bet your biscuit, the tarts turned targets will get sour.

Destroying the lives of women one single mother at a time, Georgia judges seem more devoted to casting stones to keep her silenced than they are in protecting women, children or rights. Supported by the cavalry of DFCS, CPS, and police and sheriff departments across the state, the question has to be asked: Is Georgia ever going to step into the modern day of respecting equality among women, or will it forever be casting biblical stones of judgment and oppression?

Let’s cast the light of flames that have been lit under these Georgia Moms.

Monica Rivera: A Divorce Hijacked by Activism

We all have that one conspiracy theorist friend. And maybe he operates a legal cannabis platform remotely from the comfort of his home that you’ve been staying in while you and your ex work out your divorce. This was the scene for Monica when she and her husband decided it was time to part ways and they had a young boy together. Due to the cost of procuring a lawyer, it was stressful enough for Monica to defend herself against the unwarranted attacks of mental and verbal abuse levied upon her by a narcissistic man-child and his questionably-pedaling-pedo-mother. Of course, mom, because she has ties to the judge, who likely doomed the case from the start on account of his complete despise for Daniel Louis Crumpton, a well-known local activist who thwarted Judge Lukemire’s brother in a political election and continues to call out corruption in Warner Robins on the Zeninthecar.com War-Town Times Blog. 

In Warner Robins, being friendly with the neighborhood crusader of justice only paints a target on  your back. Monica’s legal nightmare wasn’t just a custody and alimony circus. No, it was a full-on carnival of absurdity. It seemed like her lifestyle choices—supporting the Constitution and fighting for freedom—were considered criminal offenses in the eyes of her ex and his dubious family (her ex’s mom’s YouTube channel, featuring her tied up in revealing negligees and filming kids in bathtubs, was more acceptable than Monica’s advocacy for civil liberties).

Monica’s case was marred by biases, and her rights seemed more like checks on a list to be revoked.  Her custody was unfavorably split like a dictated vendetta with her ex-husband after demands to separate herself from Mr. Crumpton were refused.

Tyshyra Dent: The Price of the Protest

Tyshyra Dent -- This Douglasville mom decided to take a stand against police brutality. What did she get for her trouble? A one-way ticket to legal hell. Tyshyra’s arrest and subsequent treatment were a stark reminder that in Georgia, the First Amendment might as well come with a footnote: “Subject to police approval.”

Imagine protesting for a better future for your children and ending up in jail. It’s like the universe’s worst joke, except the punchline is a violation of your constitutional rights. Tyshyra’s experience begs the question: Is standing up for justice a crime in Georgia? The authorities’ response seems to be a resounding “yes.”

Tyshyra Dent’s encounter with the Atlanta police on October 29, 2021 could be the plot of a dark comedy if it weren’t so grim. Here’s how it went: Dent, a passionate activist advocating for civil rights, ends up in a confrontation with the police that escalates into accusations of excessive force. Now, this isn’t your typical "cop pulls over for a broken tail light" scenario. No, this was a full-on spectacle where the pursuit of justice seemed to be the real crime. What began as a dispute in a convenience store was escalated into a full-on attack by officers which left Tyshyra with head and body injuries.

Dent’s case was not just about bruises and broken trust, though; it was a testament to how activism can secretly put you on a list with local law enforcement that lands you in hot water. Instead of receiving support, Dent found herself facing a system that seemed more interested in punishing her for her advocacy than addressing the alleged brutality. The irony? Fighting for civil liberties became her liability, as if standing up for human rights was somehow a ticket to getting more of the very treatment she was protesting against.

In a city where being an activist might as well be a crime, Dent’s struggle was overshadowed by the absurdity of a legal and police system that appeared to be in competition for who could be more out of touch. Her rights seemed less like a guarantee and more like a buffet line of bureaucratic red tape. The entire ordeal was a harsh reminder that sometimes, the fight for justice can feel like a battle against a system that’s more interested in maintaining its own mess than fixing it.

As of the latest updates, the legal proceedings related to Dent’s case were ongoing. The outcome of the lawsuit and the results of the internal investigation were yet to be fully determined. The case continues to be a focal point in discussions about police brutality and systemic issues within law enforcement.

Tiwanna Woods: The Cost of Housing Advocacy

Tiwanna Woods, this Atlanta mom on a mission for affordable housing, might as well have been battling a dragon. Instead of swords and fire-breathing beasts, she’s fighting an impenetrable bureaucracy and discriminatory practices. The result? A legal and social quagmire that’s as frustrating as it is absurd.

Tiwanna’s struggle illustrates a grim reality: Advocating for the less fortunate can make you a target. Her case was a clear message from the powers that be – “Don’t rock the boat, or we’ll make sure you sink.” And yet, the question remains: Who benefits from silencing voices like Tiwanna’s? Certainly not the families she’s trying to help.

A dedicated activist fighting for fair housing, Tiwanna ends up tangled in a bureaucratic nightmare. Instead of her advocacy leading to progress, it feels like she’s been thrust into a Kafkaesque loop where fighting for a basic human right is treated like a crime. You’d think pushing for decent housing for your family would earn you a medal, not a mountain of red tape and legal headaches. But in the world of housing in Atlanta, it seems like standing up for what’s right is as risky as playing a high-stakes game of Monopoly, except with real-world consequences and zero chance of passing “Go.”

Woods’ battle against discriminatory housing practices wasn’t just about securing a roof over people’s heads—it was about fighting an entire system that seemed to view her activism as a threat. Rather than being hailed as a hero for advocating for those in need, she’s been met with legal obstacles and institutional resistance that only highlight the disparity in the housing system. Her efforts to improve affordable housing options have been met with bureaucratic barriers and an unsettling amount of resistance from those who benefit from the status quo.

In a city where advocating for affordable housing can seem like a call to arms, Woods' struggle underscores the absurdity of a system that prefers to maintain its own chaos rather than address real issues. Her fight is a stark reminder that sometimes, pushing for justice can feel like an uphill battle against an entrenched system more interested in preserving its own flaws than in making meaningful changes.

As of the latest updates, Woods' legal and advocacy efforts continue. Her case remains a powerful testament to the challenges faced by those fighting for equitable housing and serves as a crucial part of the ongoing conversation about reforming housing policies in Atlanta.

Mary Hooks: A Protester’s Punishment

Mary Hooks, co-director of Southerners on New Ground (SONG), has a story that’s all too familiar. This single mother’s protests against immigration policies and police violence turned her into a target for legal intimidation. Apparently, in Georgia, using your voice means you’ve got a bullseye on your back.

In 2020, during protests related to police violence and immigration, Mary Hooks faced significant legal pressure. The intimidation included aggressive surveillance, legal threats, and public scrutiny aimed at discouraging her and her organization from continuing their advocacy. This form of legal harassment often involves attempts to stifle activists through legal means, rather than direct criminal charges. Her "crime"? Simply exercising her First Amendment rights. Mary’s activism, aimed at confronting systemic issues and advocating for marginalized communities, was met with a harsh and unsettling response.

Her ordeal underscores a troubling trend: when peaceful assembly challenges the status quo, it seems to become a criminal act rather than a fundamental right. It was a harsh reminder that the right to protest is selectively upheld. When did peaceful assembly become a criminal activity?

Her activism, deeply tied to her role as a mother, reflects a broader struggle where fighting for justice and equality is met with intimidation and legal hurdles and makes us wonder: How far will they go to silence dissention from mothers?

April Ross: Reforming Justice, Receiving Injustice

April Ross, a Gwinnett County mother and criminal justice reform advocate found vocal criticism of local law enforcement practices didn’t earn her any friends in high places. Instead of receiving accolades for her advocacy, April faced a slew of legal challenges that seemed less like justice and more like a calculated effort to silence her.

April’s efforts to address and reform the flaws within the criminal justice system have made her a target of retaliation, illustrating that the system’s tolerance for criticism is as thin as it is unjust. From legal threats, harassment and attacks on her credibility, her case underscores a troubling reality: when you stand up to push for systemic change, the response can often be an aggressive crackdown designed to intimidate and suppress dissent. It’s a stark reminder that in a system where the status quo reigns supreme, challenging the system can come with severe consequences.

These experiences highlight a disturbing trend growing in the state of Georgia against their motherly population: Retaliation against those who seek to improve the system. When advocating for justice makes you a target, it raises serious questions about the system's commitment to change. For these mothers, it seems that challenging the status quo, no matter how flawed, often results in personal and legal repercussions. It’s as if the system prefers to maintain its broken state rather than embrace the necessary reforms that these courageous women are fighting for.

The Real Crimes

These women’s stories paint a troubling picture of a state where constitutional rights are more like suggestions than guarantees. The real crimes here aren’t the protests or the activism; they’re the abuses of power, the retaliations, and the systemic bias that seeks to keep mothers like Monica, Tyshyra, Tiwanna, Mary, and April in their place.

Georgia, it’s time to ask yourself some tough questions. Why are you so afraid of strong, vocal women? What are you so desperate to protect that you’d trample on the rights of those who want to make things better? Maybe it’s time for a change. Maybe it’s time you realized that you need moms like these. They’re not the problem; they’re the solution.

Georgia needs moms – brave, outspoken, relentless moms who refuse to back down. Because in the end, their fight is for all of us.

Roots of Damnation

*Note: It is not my intention to alter your beliefs; merely to empower you with the knowledge of other ideas that exist. In the long run, many others are thinking it, I’m just saying it. The posts to follow indefinitely are pieces of a larger text in which beliefs and knowledge may be challenged. In a world where knowledge is power, I am only offering a gift of knowing that you may use to empower yourself. 

            It goes without saying; there are many problems in our world today. The history and foundation upon which our rock has been built is nothing short of shady and damning. Expressed through the eyes of expert scholars who’ve studied the text of timeless writings (allegedly scribed by the most powerful people of their time); we trust not only the interpreters of history, but the writers.

While this ultimately creates a challenge in determining the validity of an account, there is one repetitive theme throughout the vast majority of historical works. That is, the roots of this earth are firmly established in the depths of violence, fear, and control; and watered by the blood of the men who seek to break the chains of control.

            America was supposed to be different though. She was supposed to be the salvation of the world’s people, oppressed by their own leaders.

Or was she?

As the story of America unfolds, the country gave birth to its own brand of brutality and control. While the school books dance around horrific truths of battles between the natives and the founders; the reality is that we have always been savages. Even as the earliest creatures to walk this earth were REMORSELESS KILLERS, they pale in comparison to the single-most destructive and inhumane force in the world; HUMAN BEINGS.

You would think as the only species on this planet capable of intellectual thought and rationale that we could fathom something beyond plans of mass destruction and control. But, no…

Instead we’ve come from being a race entirely dependent on our ability to work hard at cultivating and harvesting the resources of this planet; to being an invasive species seeking only to alleviate ourselves of burden and hard work by creating tools that bring about devastation at a rapid pace. In some cases, we’ve simplified the workload so tremendously; our goals can be met with the simple click of a button.

Many will say “We fought for a future that would be better than the one we had.” Well, have we accomplished that? Have we truly been given and are we currently passing along a future we want for our children?

It seems to me that we’ve more effectively created a world of LAZY beings dependent on the tools and handouts provided to keep their world as simple and blissful as possible.

As we’ve embarked on the mission to reduce our efforts, we’ve progressed our technology and medicine; which, arguably, is the responsible source for our reduced mentality, but also keeps us alive longer.

The result of “advancements” has unfortunately had the effect of diminishing the creative thought processes of our youth by providing all the “imagination” they may require. It comes in the form of fast moving lights and sounds streamed through the digital screens of indoctrination boxes (television, computers, video games, etc.). The only thing reliable in this knowledge is that this generation of children will not bring about change or mind blowing engineering feats, because they will have never lifted a finger to acquire knowledge or think on their own.

This argument generally goes two ways. The vast (liberal) majority will cry for controls to be put in place, or standards to be met and identified. Many will point the finger of parental responsibility – which to some extent I would wholeheartedly support you. However, we’re talking about mind control here.

The breeding of a LAB RAT SOCIETY is a truth that is ages old.

In fact, the desire to control has existed since the first single-celled organism. We called it survival of the fittest, because guess what? The only thing a single-celled organism knows is… SURVIVE.

Due to the need to survive, the study of domination has been practiced since the birth of this earth, and only humans have perfected it. Sadly, with this know-how, we’ve only managed to generate of society that demands equality of the sexes, rather than recognize the delicate balance that exists in the strengths and weaknesses of man and woman.

As a result of a feminist movement, mothers who would be home raising the children and being the thread that holds communities together, are now burdened by having to hold the title of breadwinner while their children are left to be raised by electronic babysitters. Women – and I generalize because some actually want to be man’s equal and not his partner – are thusly FORCED TO CHOOSE between fulfilling the societally influenced ideals of a “strong” woman, or embrace the role that was perfectly designed for her to have balance in her world.

Many of you may recall statements by me during my appearance on the Discovery show, Naked and Afraid, regarding this concept. Despite being taken out of context to portray me as a chauvinist; I truly believe that our sexual roles were meant to balance the weaknesses of each other’s sex. Sure, throughout the ages there have been stronger than average woman step up – often disguised as men – but it was NOT the move for ALL women.  Somewhere along the line, we forgot that not all women wished to be more than balanced with men.

The results have been far more devastating as they have not only CREATED DIVISION and WAR in all things; but have broken families through divorce, and figuratively castrated the idea of masculinity. This is just another way society rules and people become dominated and controlled. As we were discussing the possible damnation of America, this thought certainly provokes the question of whether we are or not
