Glenn, I'm sure you're nervous on TV and all, but you're got to watch the interrupting - I've seen it in most of the interviews you.  Good point - excellent points - but pace yourself and wait your turn.

@EsqDave On the 5-7 minute segments common on modern TV, if you're the opposition guest and are not agressive about putting forward your position, you end up sitting in silence while the time runs out without having had a chance to make your points. I've seen it many times.

Why not have Shared Parenting? Why setup it up so that one parent is kicked out of the kids life just to send a check to the other parent?

The Legal System is a Business!

They don't care about Justice!

The more they can get you to appear in court, the more they profit!

They are all Psychopaths: They convict and destroy people for their careers and money!

This applies to Judges, Lawyers, DA, US-Attorney, DOJ.... and anyone else who is a part of the legal system.

There are Laws, Court and Police practices that encourage an epidemic of False Accusations of Domestic Violence, Abuse and Rape in this country.

The "Feminist" Ideology that is now Indoctrinated into Politics, the Government, Courts, Police and General Public, that:

- Women are Good, Men are Bad

- Women are helpless Victims, Men are Perpetrators

- Women need Help and Protection, Men must be Restrained, Prosecuted and Jailed!

- Why?

Policies cannot have "UNINTENDED" consequences.. Most of these policies have the intended consequence of "MONEY ABOVE ALL ELSE." NEVER, I MEAN NEVER, HAVE I HEARD ANY MENTION TO THE ATTEMPT AT SHARED PARENTING. KNOW WHY? BECAUSE IT WOULD ESSENTIALLY ELIMINATE THE COURTS. AND THERE ARE TOO MANY MAKING MONEY OFF OF THIS MISERY!!

@helobelow then you gotta do something about it. show your support for initiatives and bills that people like Glenn Sacks and Ed Holstein fight for. Fight with them, side by side, get out and protest, Don't be afrad to show your face and speak up publically about this matter! You know it's the right thing to do, and what's happpening to you and so many others is the wrong thing.

I also tried to get food stamps and public assistance (welfare) and guess what????? I made too much money. What a joke! Sorry gonna have to choose jail eventually which will only end any gainful employment I might have and put the cost on the idiots that call us deadbeats. Brilliant threat by Judge Glukowski to me, pay or go to jail today, get a second job! Forget the limited time u get to spend with the child already, forget love, affection and nurturing the father provides. Fuck you Dad! Pay!

@unfortunatebeam Exactly! Most of the ordered amounts are set way too high. My example and my ordered support. Gross Income=$39,000yr. Net= 28,500yr. CS=$830mth. Avg. Elec.=180mth. water=65mth. Rent=950mth. car payment=135mth. car insurance=102mth.(spotless record) Heating gas=110mth. car gas to keep my job=140mth. food(whatever I had left) 100mth. No extra for entertainment, CS based on gross not net income, slowly lost everything I owned, denied visits by mother, DO THE MATH U SMUCK JUDGES!

Glenn makes good, and better, points as usual in such arguments.

He looks good too, lost some weight
