Family drama... a personal share.

by Princess Daisy Boo in

hi guys.

i was an active member of this forum many years ago and it played an integral part of my awakening and making peace with my decision to leave.

it’s been a while since i posted here.

Depending on your location, I would mention you might have to turn HER (or the Elders) into the District Attorney's "Elder Abuse Unit" for intentional emotional abuse of a senior. Might give her pause, and save dear old dad from some unneeded anxiety. In California, the following is current law. Say it with conviction and most people will think twice.

· "Psychological Abuse which includes but is not limited to verbal abuse, harassment, or being confined to a room for extended periods of time, etc. For further definition look at California Welfare and Institution Code Section 15610.53

· Isolation Abuse which includes but is not limited to an individual prevents another (or him or herself) from having contact with other by refusing calls, mail or visitors. For further definition look at California Welfare and Institution Code Section 15610.43

· Abandonment which includes but is not limited to an individual who willfully forsakes an elder. For further definition look at California Welfare and Institution Code Section 15610.05

· As discussed below, the California Penal Code Section 368 makes certain acts against an elder punishable by prison terms if convicted in a criminal court.

· Federal Law relating to elder abuse can be found in The Older Americans Act, Title I, Section 102, The Older Americans Act, Title III, Section 307, and The Older Americans Act, Title VII, Section 721.

It is in the California Penal Code that the “teeth” of the elder abuse laws are found. Put simply, one can go to jail if one abuses an elderly or dependent person in California.

Penal Code 368.

(b) (1) Any person who, under circumstances or conditions likely to produce great bodily harm or death, willfully causes or permits any elder or dependent adult, with knowledge that he or she is an elder or a dependent adult, to suffer, or inflicts thereon unjustifiable physical pain or ......mental suffering,........ or having the care or custody of any elder or dependent adult, willfully causes or permits the person or health of the elder or dependent adult to be injured, or willfully causes or permits the elder or dependent adult to be placed in a situation in which his or her person or health is endangered, is punishable by imprisonment in a county jail not exceeding one year, or by a fine not to exceed six thousand dollars ($6,000), or by both that fine and imprisonment, or by imprisonment in the state prison for two, three, or four years"

Just stand up to these S.O.B.s

GB Sidlick was my table head at Bethel. One morning he gave me a ration of #!#! for missing breakfast "worship" and taking a day off to eat at a local sidewalk cafe and read the paper like a normal New Yorker. Every good JW, Elder, Bethelite, and especially GBs are expected to be dutifully engaged in Service or Meeting Sunday mornings. "Top shelf Tony" is a publicity whore and I'm glad he got outed. But perhaps he is happy about it because Watchtower GB MADE the "Rolling Stone" this March for the first time!!!!!!!

1973: Is Tony is simply whistling Dr Hook now?

"Top shelf Tony" yearned for the spotlight now he has it. Maybe he has this 73' Dr Hook song in the back of his head: We got golden fingers

"And we're loved everywhere we go (that sounds like us)
We sing about beauty and we sing about truth
At ten-thousand dollars a show (right)
We take all kinds of pills that give us all kind of thrills
But the thrill we've never known
Is the thrill that'll gitcha when you get your picture
On the cover of the Rollin' Stone

want to see my picture on the cover
(Stone)Wanna buy five copies for my mother (yes)
(Stone)Wanna see my smilin' face
On the cover of the Rollin' Stone (that's a very very good idea)

I got a freaky ole lady name a cocaine Katy
Who embroideries on my jeans
I got my poor ole grey haired daddy
Drivin' my limousine
Now it's all designed to blow our minds
But our minds won't really be blown
Like the blow that'll gitcha when you get your picture
On the cover of the Rollin' Stone

want to see our pictures on the cover
(Stone) want to buy five copies for our mothers (yeah)
(Stone) want to see my smilin' face
On the cover of the Rollin' Stone
(talking) Hey, I know how
Rock and roll

Ah, that's beautiful
We got a lot of little teenage blue eyed groupies
Who do anything we say........" :) https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/jehovahs-witnesses-child-sexual-abuse-811927/

Just a thought

by Gorbatchov in

jw
friends

tonight watched at prime video the great movie the firm again.

in 1993, first time in the theatre, made direct a connection with the gb.. now i'm thinking: could jw.org be used for worldwide money laundry?.

taken in cash, transfering it with worldwide branches under religion cover?.

Balaamsass2

I was looking at some of the JW tax filings with the State of California. Obviously false, multiple copies of the exact same return year after year. Just the GB again giving the middle finger to the Tax Man based on 1st amendment freedom of Religion. I wouldn't be surprised if duffle bags of cash donations were privately flown from Florida to nearby Freetown in the Bahamas and other locations, to deposit in the Swiss bank branches located there.

The tax man is not the GB only concern. Having cash offshore is a great way to stay liquid in case of an unfriendly court slapping them with records subpoenas, asset freezes( Lis pendens) or judgments.

Is is true one of the new residence buildings at Warwick was never used and lays empty?

by nowwhat? in

if true what a waste of dedicated funds that could have been used to build 1000's of k.h's in africa.

?? Well, this showed up on my "Jehovah's Witnesses" Google search today. Profitable future "Charity" business? Getting "Ceasar" to foot the bill? https://www.seniorliving.org/basics/religiousbased/jehovahs-witness/

a few seconds ago this hit the net todayhttp://jwvictims.org/conventions-kingdom-halls-relief-funds-and-other-financial-scams-and-schemes-of-jehovahs-witnesses/.

conventions, kingdom halls, relief funds, and other financial scams and schemes of jehovahs witnesses.

jehovahs witnesses often note that at their meetings (like church services), they dont pass a collection plate.

Concealed carry Dubs

by scruffmcbuff in

i spent a considerable length of time living and working in america (would love to imigrate one day).. almost everyone i worked with and made friends with carried a concealed firearm of somesort.

i found this pretty interesting and as an avid firearm fan even more so.. so to our american members here... .

as a jw did you or did you know any practising dubs who carried or if not had firearms for home defence?

In the 40s and early 50s the Bethel nightwatchman carried a revolver. After a guard shot up a giant roll of paper one night Knorr put an end to it.

In the 60s my Congregation Overseer was a cop. In the late 60s, we had two additional deputies and an FBI agent in the hall, and an undercover. One meeting about 1968 one of the deputies jacket popped open while he was giving a talk exposing a pearl-handled 45. All the kids were impressed.

During the late 70s Watchtower got very anti-gun and three of the elders quit the force in order to remain in "Good Standing"...and almost starved. Two remained cops...don't ask don't tell..and just didn't serve.

The JWs who do carry are rare...and do it secretly.

While publicly Watchtower is anti-gun and anti -cop...surprisingly they have no problem recruiting ex-cops to investigate (stalk) "enemies" (apostates-litigants) Watchtower deems dangerous to its financial interests.
