this is going to be a very long post the Oklahoma dhs this morning finaly awarded my best friend custody of her one child after a very long and horrifying custody battle. let me 1st take you back in time..

i met my best friend back in 2006 we wanted to go to the annual rainbow gathering in colorodo and he wanted her husband (at the time) and family to go too her kids were sooo excited they wanted to help serve food at dinner and cook in the kitchens.

i started to suspect something was off however when chevy (my best friend) left the house to get diapers for raven and returned 5 minutes later with no diapers in tears cause she had to wrap her baby in newspaper..not because they had no money but because when she left the house his family dragged her back!

then she started to tell me the stories

1st off his family is native american..pure blood i believe chevy is 1/4 i think chevy practices the native american way of life and was doing firewalking one day they saw that and burned everything she owned..for the next 3 years she wore only his jeans (2 pairs) and his work shirts (3) and that was all she had

well except her 67 vw bus she fully restored but we will get to that soon enough

so we decide to go to the gathering and chevy offers to drive from oklohma to pennsylvania to get me to take me to the colrodo gathering...map that! thousands of miles out of her way!! so because shes so kind i bought her and her kids all drums (djimbes..really nice one s too)

so now she reminds her ex that he needs to take off work to go to the gathering a week goes by then he claimed he asked off but they said no

she found out from his boss that he never even asked!

next more sabotage.... she saved up 500 dollars for the trip which he then blew on a 5 day drinking binge (this is when the newspaper diapers thing happened cause he was nowhere to be found)

next she had to get insurabce and inspection on the way to get it inspected he said he was fixing a blinker but instead ripped out all the wiring disabling the van completely

at this point i arranged a differnt ride and we were going to go get her ..but then he said she ciuldnt bring the kids..even though only 1 was his

ill skip past this part except to say he promiced hed pick her up after the gathering ..but didn't

so she had to find her own way home which took a bit when she got home and went to see her kids him and his mom beat her til she was almost 100% bruise

next ..her fully restored vw van was crushed they paid a junk yard to crush it in a car crusher the junk yard owner was in tears as he did it..

then they cut her breaks trying to kill her they tru[ied 4 times to kill her tried lighting her house on fire after draining deisel out of a bus (i bought a bus for us to travel in after this mess)

now on to the kids

chevy after awhile won full custody the dhs the court all gave her a standing ovation the bailiff was in tears

a few months later they asked if the kids can go swimming with their cousins she let them..but...they kidnapped them fikes a false report that she molested them and worse..so back to court they go but different court..different dhs

this time its pure hell

they kept shaving the kids heads cheyanne had grown her hair from birth they tried forcing them to call themselves rednecks but deffiantly they would say no we are rainbows even tho they never been to a gathering

well this is getting long so ill start to just give u a list of all the things they did thartt dhs overlooked

shot the kids dogs in front of them (these kids were raised to never hurt a bug)

had the kids sleeping in bed with a loaded rifle (they burned the drums chevy bought them saying they would never play those n#@&er drums instead bought them a rifle) (they were like 5 and 8 at the time)

force them to go door to door handing out religious pamphlets (whats the 1 that doesnt alow women to cut their hair yet they shaved these girls heads bald regularly) (edit it was penticostal i just remembered)

were caught driving drunk with the kids in the car with no seatbelts even

were known to do meth in front of them

constantly tried convincing the kids that their mom was evil

wouldnt lert them have freinds they were never allowed to go out except to church

the list could get long if i could remember it all

now on to what they had against chevy that they usedin court

she has dreadlocks

she owns a schooolbus (i bought)

she has african friends (they claimed the kids will get raped if she allows her freinds to visit)

for 6 years she hasnt had her kids

for the last year she hasnt seenjh raven or heard from her cheyyanne hasnt seen raven either

noone has

today ..7 am chevy calls me ..1st exciting news in 6 years

her ex husbands neighbour cakked dhs cause they were worried bout the kids.,.including his 2 new babies with his new wife

dhs walks in they live in a trailer the whole place smells of shit and piss the wifes passed out on the couch

tge babies were in rooms with the doors tied shut 1 had shit all over the floor on the top of toyboxes everywhere the other had a diaper exploding like it wasnt changed in days

in the master bedroom there was a huge pile of used tampons on the floor

the wife said she only tied the doors shut when he takes a nap they asked how often she takes a nap she said an hour after he leaves fir work.. he goes to work at 10..it was 2 pm!

at this point she flipped out started attacking the dhs workers

so chevy got imediete custody

unfortunateky they dont know where raven is

they claim shes been staying with the grandmom for 2 weeks

but noones sure of that

but

they have till thursday to turn her over at the court

if not the entire family is going to jail

i left out tons of details only because theres too many to remember and like i said was woke up at 7 am (going back to sleep now)

this nightmares finaly at an end

these kids are the most beautiful sweet lioving enlightened inteligent and talented kids u ever met and they have been tortured

happy ending chevy has a new husband hes a great guy (kinda too addicted to video games byt he was raised by the mario brothers u could say) they have a new baby together

the dhs nightmares finaly at an end

now for the massive lawsuites haha

dreadlockssite celebrates its 3 year birthday today aug 9th

so i wanted to share a lil of the history and landmarks we've encountered along the way.

First off the humble beginnings. I was on a site called hipforums that got less and less hip all the time, it got downright ugly in fact. so i stayed in the dread forum only and avoided the other 400 forums, but even that was full of sarcastic replies troll like behavior and silly arguments and abusive behavior. I then along with slang came up with the concept for dreadlocktruth and i made tge 1st donation to get that started however after trying to join many times but having trouble i gave up.

after awhile i got sick of hipforums so found a new site dreadlocksforums but there were hardly anyone there, 8 out of every 10 that tried to join couldnt, and the admin who started it spent 5 minutes on the site the 1st day then vanished for over a year.

o after posting the original version of dreaducation there we held a meeting of all the active members and decided to hold a mutiny of sorts and recreate tge site here, or to be more precice create a better version that people could join, had an active admin and would provide only the best info we could.

early on we were a group of maybe 100 that moved from that site to here. but a comment on dreadheadhqs myspace page about the evils of wax soon changed that as a couple hundred former dreadheadhq customers flocked to us.

by the time we reached 800 members or so the sitemap had grown from roughly 2000 pages to 50,000 and i remember thinking (and posting) that we were officialy a large site at that time

who would have guesed that in the next 2 1/2 years we'd reach 1,118,695 yea over a milion pages (that was last nights sitemap update total)

since then we held a debate with jonny clean which he failed miserably to defend his products, even using his incredible powers of nonsense confusion and lies. he then came back to us a month later admitting that wax doesnt wash out of dreads, and that when waxed no new knots form after day 1!

we pushed him into promising a free wax remover to anyone who used hi wax (ofcourse hi ax removers c[-very expensive, not proven to be effective, and harsh chemicals. he also has a long lit of requirements in order to get it free, so much so that every wax victim has just opted to buy the all natural wax b gone instead.

during year 2 we expanded alot, adding the dreadlocks dating site, as well as offering fre shops to members who are crafty or creative.

this lead to creation of a dread wax remover made by a couple members who were originaly dreadheadhq "sponsored" members (they now say dreadheadhq supporters are very cult like and the "sponsored" meant they were never alowed to tell the truth about the products.

unfortunately due to life issues they discontinur]=ed the wax removal soaps, byt along came a new member who makes awesome dread soaos who developed a new wax rejkmover thats even more effective.

We've saved thousands of dreads along the way, from wax, crochet, twisting causing baldness, and much more. over a million dreadheads have visited the site, and hundreds of thousands (at a gurss) use it regularly as their ony reliable source of dreadlocks info.

in the past year weve witnesed the top dread sites fall from grace, as dreadlocks.com wich has held the number 1 position in google has 1/100th the trafic we have, and almost 100% that viit read only 1 page then leave in disgust. the other "big names" dreadheadhq and knottyboy now combined get 1/5th the traffic we get thats both sites combined.

in the past year 1/2 we've seen a reduction in wax use, where it used to be 1 out of every 3 that joined had used wax, now its closer to 1 in 20!

unfortunately thanks to youtube though crochet use has gone way up as wax use went down.

thanks to all the wonderful members and their dedication to this site we have earned a reputatiion thats lead to almost 1/2 our search r=traffic searching fir info on our site specificly like 1/3 traffic is just searching dreadlockssite and alt more searching stuff like best shampoo for dreads dreadlockssite or loose roots dreadlockssite proving that they feel we are the authority and most reliable source of info.

ofcourse we hac some try ti give us a bad reputatuon toosaying we werent accepting because we wouldnt recomend harmful methods. especialy those who proffitted from the harmful methods.

but then there were others in the industry that recognized the value of the info we provided and many reformed their businesses

one worth mentioning ragingrootsstudios formerly the dreadqueen refuses to provide services like interlocking or wax use instead provides a list of less then ethical locticians willing to do them.

we as a community have had a profound effect on dreadlocks worldwide

and this is just the beginnibg, just 3 years in by the time we reach 10 years i'm certain we will be blown away by how far we've come.

today, on our 3rd birthday as a community i want wach and every 1 of you to turn on the facebook autoshare thing (floating over there on the left)

and share as much of the sites content as you can for the day and lets see if we can't kick off the 4th year with a bang, and double the number we reach for the day.

namaste

there are 2 main schools of thought when it comes to dread care

1 lets call the consumer option

the other, the zen art of dread care.

the consumer buys into products, pays hundreds of dollars for kits, or spends thousands going to salons for constant maintenance.

the zen artists grows herbs for herbal soaks, smudges his/her dreads to cleanse the energies surrounding them, maybe chants the aum vibration to unite their dreads with the universal consciousness, and add a few gemstone beads or crystals to heighten the spiritual power of their locks.

the zen of dread care does not require tons of money, ot does not require hours of rubbing and rolling or twisting. there is no need for a technical degree in lockology tangleology or dreadology. it only requires love, patience and understanding, a connection with nature thats deeper then the roots that penetrate dep into the earth ..the same roots which are reflected in the knotting twisting tangles that are growing organicly, magicly and ..naturally upon the head.. the crown chakra wide open like a fountain of pure white light, but protected by the crown of roots that absorb the flow of energy and come alive with their own personalities.

the consumer on the other hand exposes the scalp thinning the mane letting that flow of creativinty and spiriuality drain from the skull unhindered ..unchecked only a thick coating of wax remaining where the once proud mane no longer remains

the zen artist preffers simplicity serenity instead of a trip to the salon they take their knots to the ocean or to the mountains they personalize each dread and want to teach them about reality and the world around them, they want to show them the beauty of the universe they may climb a mountain just to hold their dreads up to the sun on the solstice

the zen artists may shake their dreads in the rain they may ad a flower to attract a butterfly and consider that styling

the consumer hides from the drizzle afraid the water will ruin thousands of hours of hard work and tens of thousands of expences

they may shave and shape and pull the roots so tight they nearky fall off they may not wash or even wet their dreads for over a year thinking tidy and dirty are one in the same thing the "care" is not caring for the dreads but caring what others might think of the dreads if they are not all even straight round and perfect without a single loose hair

the zen artists is above such trivial things a loose hair here and there doesnt bother them, they dont care what others may think, they are nit dreading to impress, but for happiness

they spend their time not worrying about perfection, but accepting imperfections that are the essence of true beauty..as well as joy

they have touched the true essence and nature of dreadiness

they have grown into and with their dreads becoming one with them they arent a style they adopted they rent something they bought made put in or got their dreads are a integral part of the soul

celebrated with every breathe with every word thought action and deed.. they are the dread the dread is them

they dont have dreads..they are dreads

they never got dreads..they grew dreads

they are at 1 with the true self..

the experience of sitting on a mountaintop meditating as your dreads grow to the ground

compared to sitting in a salon with a strahnger =yanking on your hair till your in tears and agony

for the consumer dreads are a purchase something yiu ask "how much do dreads cost" before deciding to dread or not to dread

the zen dreader doesnt think of such things they simply alow themselves to have what they desire, to become who they are

since dreadlocksite started 3 years ago about a dozen people said they were going to use wax the dread kit and/or crochet for a year and come back and prove us wrong (mostly its been young kids around 15-16) they stubbornly refuse to listen to logic and reason, let alone benefit from the experiences of thousands who had used those things before and regretted it.

so i just want to remind yas

we still want you to come back and show us the results

so awhile back i wrote a blog about a distant relative named terrence macsweeny or mcsweenie or macsweenie (i think is actually right)

for those who didnt read that blog post ill recap it quickly here terrence was i believe a great great uncle or 3rd cousin 4th removed or whatever im not sure how it all works out

but he was like the mayor of cork in ireland around the 1920s he wrote the book on freedom called principles of freedom that inspired ghandi and mau tze tung and others but was jailed as a revolutionary and there went on the longest hunger strike in irelands history and died after 76 days without food. his funeral was bhigger then jfks and maybe even marleys and jah rastafaris..

anyway thats just the recap from the old blog post wich is only relevant to this 1 o]in a way

just now i was tracked down on facebook by someone who found me onyoutube

by seeing a comment i posted on a video about terrenmce macswenie

aparently hes my cousin too i never knew hesz an actor from england but living in nyc (2 hour drive from me)

hes always wanted to go to a gathering but never has yet hes attending juiliard but travels the world alot hes filming in south africa then india so cant make this gathering,,

he said hes never seen dreadlocks like mine so healthy and unfuckedwith (his exact words) so we got to talking dreads and wax and stuff

its just wild meeting family you never knew you had because of random coincidences and online web weaving

think hes even into reggae

we've been talking an hour or 2 now and its amazing how much we agree on things and how simular we are in our thinking

last night on the news there was a segment about a 49 year old woman in ny who went shopping in the nude, after walking into 2 different stores to shop she was arrested. When asked why she went shopping naked she replied "i believe in total and complete freedom". they then took her to a mental hospital for a psychiatric evaluation.

I guess there's some irony in this.

If you live in america.. the land of the free..and believe in freedom...

then you must be crazy!

this is a reprint from another site

this was posted by a florida priest who wants to be the 2020 presidential candidate for the republican party.

and this is his plan for our future.

this is not a joke

this is his exact plan as he posted it. he has run for mayor in florida and was defeated now hes set his sights on the 2020 presidency.

The petition statement:

If elected I will work to ban pornography with a 10-year prison term for viewing or participating in pornography as well as oral and anal sex with a 1-5 year prison term for oral sex and a 1-10 year term for anal sex.

If elected I will work to ban the manufacture and sale of contraceptives (birth control) with a prison term of up to 1 year in jail and/or a fine of up to $5000 for violating this ban. None of these laws will be retroactive.

If elected I will support a ban on interracial marriage. While I am not racist I believe that God intends people to marry within their own race. Any and all interracial marriages currently licensed would immediately be annulled. Any children born to said couple would be allowed only to marry with other children of interracial couples.

All races ought to have equal opportunity in employment pay and opportunity. Therefore I believe that Affirmative Action is racist against white people and if elected I will work to see that it is abolished.

I firmly believe that sex should be shared with your spouse and that there ought be be love between the married couple. However man and wife ought to be of the same color as stated above.

If elected I will support the death penalty for murder (including performing an abortion) as well as attempted murder and rape and incest and pedophilia/child molestation and bestiality and necrophilia and cross dressing and treason and spying against the State and espionage and drug dealing and vampirism and adultery and armed robbery.

I am also 100% against homosexuality and I believe homosexuals including lesbians and bisexuals as well as people with fetishes ought to be put in mental hospitals. This must be done NOW before they degenerate society and our children's morals even further. I also believe ANY children in the custody of homosexuals ought to be taken away IMMEDIATELY in order to prevent further emotional and sexual abuse. DO NOT let your children near one of these vile monsters!

I believe in a national dress code. If elected the National Dress Code (NDC) will be as follows:

* All persons must wear clothing from their neck to three inches below their knees when in public or in the presence of children.
* Women MUST wear dresses. Trousers are NOT lady-like and therefore women ought not to wear them.
* Jeans are to be banned.
* Any profanity or sexual references on clothing will be banned.
* Businesses must comply with the NDC. Failure to do so will require business owners to sell their operation to the highest bidder.
* Failure to obey the NDC will be subject to a fine NOT exceeding $10000 and/or up to 30 days imprisonment.

I am completely in favor of banning the flawed and blasphemous theory of evolution from ever again being taught in public schools. It has paved the way for atheism to take root in this country. It has also led to Kinsey's famous sexual "research" that led to the sexual revolution. This in turn has contributed to the moral decay of America. God created man is his own image and we must never ever forsake His word. If we do America will end up like Sodom and Gomorrah.

I support the good moral crusaders in Washington D.C. who are getting tougher on the War on Drugs. I am in favor of the death penalty for drug dealers and for a mandatory 10-year prison sentence for anyone caught with ANY illegal drug including marijuana. This mandatory sentence will be required for any amount of possession no matter how small it may be. This will send a strong decisive message to drug abusers that their use of drugs will not be tolerated by the American public.

I propose prison reform. This will be as follows:

* Prison cells will be made smaller. I would set this to approximately one-half of their average current size.
* Prisoners will be kept in their cells 24/7 (i.e. NEVER leaving their cells during incarceration).
* Prisoners will only be fed bread and butter.
* NO contact with ANY other human being during incarceration.
* NO TV or medical care or entertainment of any sort.
* NO sunlight will penetrate a prison cell.
* Disobedient or rebellious prisoners can be beaten by the guards as punishment.
* ANY inmate that attempts to escape will be executed on sight.

If elected I will work to legalize police entrapment operations so that criminals can be caught by police without fear of a lawsuit as well as to catch potential and aspiring criminals before they actually commit a crime on their own. I also believe police "brutality" is blown out of proportion and that mild violence towards criminals from the police should be accepted.

I believe in Singapore-style anti-terrorist legislation. I propose that anyone suspected of being a terrorist ought to be required if necessary to serve up to 5 years in prison without formal charges being brought forward. This will help stop the wave of terrorism sweeping America today.

I am a firm believer in the Temperance movement. I believe that alcohol and tobacco cause a great deal of problems in our country today. I favor the return of Prohibition as well as a complete ban on tobacco. Alcohol causes strokes and leads to cirrhosis of the liver and dropsy. It is also a leading cause of automobile accidents and suicides. Tobacco causes lung cancer (cigarettes) and throat cancer (chewing tobacco) and is along with alcohol a leading cause of premature death in this nation. Tobacco and alcohol are ruining America and it is up to the government to take the initiative to once and for all take tobacco and alcohol off America's streets and out of our schools and our stores and most importantly out of our culture. In order for these goals to be met we must require all schools and employers to regularly test for tobacco and alcohol as well as other drugs on a regular basis and report to the Federal government their findings. Any and all violators will be arrested and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

If elected I will work to support a total ban on tattooing. Tattooing is the desecration of one's own body and is indeed harmful. It often causes infections and can result in severe scarring and is very difficult to remove. Therefore all tattooing ought to be banned as soon as possible.

If elected I will work to implement a Federal Anti-Vice Squad (FAVS) that will enforce all the morality laws enacted once fellow moralists are elected to high positions in government. The FAVS will have full search and seizure powers and will be able to for example demand a spare key from someone to search homes for pornography or tobacco etc. The FAVS will also be responsible for enforcing the NDC with patrolling of streets and informants on the streets of America.

I support Project Echelon wholeheartedly as it has undoubtedly saved the United States from countless terrorist attacks and helps fight the war on drugs. Project Echelon monitors ALL telecommunications data for suspicious activity.

I also support the new Carnivore project underway by the FBI to help catch criminals including but not limited to drug dealers as well as drug users and terrorists and spies and traitors of the United States of America.

I enjoy politics. I hope to win the Republican nomination for President in 2020. I will fight as a moralist. I will try to institute the above goals of mine to restore the traditional Judeo-Christian values that our Puritan forefathers founded the United States upon at Plymouth Rock.

Thank you and Amen.

are you ready to live in the world hes envisioned?

do you think the current republican candidates are much better?
