The Hall of Shame

"Well, he must be nuts."
"Nobody would do what Nyles is doing if he wasn't."

You would be correct if this were my first, or second, or even my hundredth time trying to get someone, anyone, to simply look into my case.

Here are just a few of the people and organizations that have never gotten back to me with anything more than a "Good Luck" form letter. Most never even acknowledged my contact.

President Barack Obama
Vice President "Joe" Biden
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton ("It Takes a Village" A father? Maybe not)
Senator John McCain (Arizona) (after all the kidnapping occurred in Tucson Arizona)
Senator Jon Kyl (Arizona)
Congressman Raul Grijalva (Arizona)
Senator Patty Murray (Washington State)
Senator Maria Cantwell (Washington State)
Congresswoman Jame Herrera Beutler (Washington State)
Governor Chris Gregoire (Washington State)
United States Department of Justice (Several Divisions)
American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU)
SafePlace Olympia
Victim Advocate Olympia Police Department
Victim Advocate's Office Thurston County Prosecutor's Office
Prosecutors Office Thurston County
Prosecutors Office City of Olympia
Washington State Department of Social and Health Services (DSHS)

Believe me, I could go on and on, certainly into the dozens of organizations and public officials contacted, if not hundreds.

The point is that as far as any agency, any representative, and any public official I've contacted is concerned, domestic violence does not occur to men, or at least it's not taken seriously. I know, I've gone to jail for being a victim and lost any access to my son. The insane part of this, is that my ex-wife readily admits the violence in court, and I have no history, or even accusations of violence or coercion, and yet I lost everything and keep getting prosecuted legally and civilly with no way out.

That is why I am here. That is why I am doing the extreme protest I am doing.
There are no advocates out there that I can go to, and I refuse to "man up" and be further victimized by the very government that is supposed to assure justice. I refuse to give up my right to be a fantastic and truly loving father.
"Political Correctness" is a poor substitute for justice.

I don't wish to die, but I refuse to let my son and I be at the bottom of a huge bully "pile-on"
It is truly a horrible life I am living now. We need justice for everyone, irrespective of gender, and in Olympia Washington (and I strongly suspect in many other places) this appears impossible, so....

That is why you find me here.

Very Rationally Yours,

Nyles
