How Judge David Breland and Morgan County DHR Almost Destroyed My Life!

Judge David Breland and Morgan County DHR are nothing but "home wreckers" and blood suckers of the African-American community. During my personal experience with DHR every attempt has been made to destroy me in every way possible. African-American males are still slaves to a system designed to keep them in poverty and imprisoned. DHR does nothing to build families, in fact they do the opposite by fostering anger between mother and father. African-American women are the biggest losers in this designed plan and one only needs to look at Morgan county Alabama as proof. The greatest weapon the white man has against the black man in Morgan County is the the black woman! The Department of Human Resources is broken and each county especially Morgan county uses it to destroy lives of African-Americans. In Judge Breland court a man can't even mention visitation if he is $1 behind in support, it seems he's only concerned about money. The mental and physical welfare of the child is not a top priority in his court only how much money a man has which he always says: "How much money do you have for me today?" No wonder he's so quick to lock African-American males, it's 'his' money. During my involvement with DHR I've had the police sent to my job over 7 times even though I was paying. 5 of those 7 times I lost the job. Three times I was evicted from my housing and lost everything I owned and had to recover to the point that it's impossible for me to get housing in my name due to the evictions while imprisoned. The sad thing about this is that I was paying my payments at these times of imprisonment. What Judge Breland and Morgan county DHR does is periodically bring Non-Custodial Parents to court and demand large sums of cash. If they don't have the cash then they go to jail for a period of time but eventually have to be released. It seems that it is a crime to be poor or expierence financial difficulty! Upon release each time I lost everything I owned and was homeless without a job. His court releases you with a warning to pay in 30 days or face the same punishment for being poor. This is a disgrace and African-Americans had better realize that this judge posing as a democrat is harmful to our people. He's no friend of ours and the sooner we realize it the better off our people will be. Judge David Breland and Morgan county DHR almost never holds the mother to account. The most obvious reason is "gender discrimination" and this is steeped deep into the DHR system. From the beginning the female gets a free counsel while the male has to pay for it himself. This is done because the state stands to profit off our children just like slavery days. Why else the first papers a man gets it states that it's the state and her against him without them ever hearing what the man has to say. From the very beginning the state has chosen sides based on gender. It's unclear why they do this but it could be due to wages a man makes versus the wages a woman could make over a 18 to 21 year period. The laws in Alabama haven't been revised or revisited since 1973 the very height of the Women's Movement and they reflect the ideas of the times of women being helpless and blameless. All these laws were enacted before the onslaught of crack and other addictions took a foothold. A man's wages can be garnished and he be subject to imprisonment and more if he fails to meet the demands of the court. No accountability exists for women to show how that money is spent because the courts know that in many cases the money is used for other and illegal things. Judge David Breland shows a total indifference to African-American male point of view and will not let an African-American male speak in court unless it's through a lawyer. Each election year he will smile in our faces pretending he cares about our community. He only cares about bringing the state money and supplying the jail system with African-American inmates. If he doesn't change the way he views justice in this system and stop being so quick to send our people to jail then we must start organizing at the grassroots level to vote him out of office. He shouldn't be allowed to hide behind the democratic party while hurting the African-American community by tearing down and destroying our African-American men. More on this subject May 3, 2007.
