Thank you. i cant find it through the cafety site. Further, and this is not to ungratefully critisize your efforts, should the testimony not be of the "sworn" variety, as that carries weight in a way simple messages on the internet does not?

thank you

You are correct.  However as nobody in CAFETY is a lawyer, judge, or a certified Notary we cannot certify "sworn" statements.  Right now, this is a temporary fix in light of the original website not being functional.  We will be adding this feature to our new site as the site designer programs it.

If you have a story, please feel free to post it on this wiki page or just type/write it.  Or you can hold off until we have the website back at 100% and post it then.  Whatever works for you.

Looks great.

Only serious deficit is there is no easily clickable "testimony area," that I see. What needs to be presented, most importantly, are the experiences of captives in these "treatment" facilities. Only with a large selection of accessible testimony the true horror of abduction, imprisonment and brainwashing enter the public sphere.

And that’s the only way for the voiceless (the dead, those too injured to speak) to be given voice.
thanks

That's where we are collecting testimony for now.

Let's see, Ted Kennedy almost died and came down to the senate chambers for one vote.  Doubt he will be doing much in terms of legislation.  Obama is running around on his Unicorn talking about "change" (I feel sudden tingle down my leg).  Bernard Sanders has been trying to impeach the president.  Hillary is planning her HRC2012 campaign.  Jack Reed is holding up Obama's cape as he tours Europe.

Then on to the republicans....
Murkowski is busy with the legalization of drilling in ANWAR.  Orrin Hatch is at a fundraiser at WWASP headquarters.  And the rest of the republicans are scared of actually doing their job because most of them are going to lose the next election cycle.

The only way that this bill will pass is if all the political maneuvering in Washington magically disappears overnight and senators actually do what is in their oath of office.  Don't hold your breat
