Signing petitions in other countries or writing to other countries inquires.
by John Davis ini am seeing this petition and call for people to write to the iicsa so that they will investigate watchtower.
i think that this part is good if the person who signs the petition or writes the letter is a citizen or a resident of that country.
i have a problem when people who are citizens or residents of other countries do this when they write into an inquiry like the arc or sign petitions.

Dutch petition for investigation into child abuse cases
by jochie inplease read.
last weekend, trouw, a dutch newspaper, published several articles on sexual abuse within the jehovah's witnesses organization.
this church organization attempts to resolve abuse internally without going to the police or courts.. so therefore i made this petition to ask the dutch parliament to start an investigation.

IICSA investigations
by Phoebe inhaving just watched john cedars latest youtube video i am appalled that jws do not make up part of the investigation into institutions that have failed to protect children from sexual abuse.. i have emailed and begged them to reevaluate their decision.. if anyone else wants to do so, this is the email i used, i don't know if it's the right one, it's on their website..

org they have this:two children of jehovah’s witnesses, expelled for conscientious stand, return to school.

by John Davis inus supreme court strikes down nc sex offender social media ban.
raleigh .
the u.s. supreme court has overturned a north carolina law prohibiting registered sex offenders from using facebook or other social networking sites that minors can join.. the challenge was brought by lester gerard parkingham jr., a registered sex offender in north carolina, who faced additional charges after durham police found a facebook page he created under an assumed name.. the case raised questions about whether such laws prohibit sex offenders from participating in web-based forums, which have become virtual town squares, as they re-enter society.. “this case is one of the first this court has taken to address the relationship between the first amendment and the modern internet,” justice anthony kennedy wrote in the majority opinion.

the move follows russia’s banning of the christian denomination in april and its annexation of the ukrainian territory of crimea in 2014.. one of the central tenets of jehovah’s witnesses’ faith is an opposition to serving in the military.
previously in russia, members have been allowed to undertake alternative civilian service.
