SAY HELLO TO VIDEO LONG ENOUGH TO:
• catch that cop telling you can't be on public property.
• the local judges son calling you a deadbeat for holding a parental equality sign
• irate citizens engorged on "Hate Daddy" propaganda, telling you your a scumbag
• social workers who think it's ok for a mom to deny visitation to dad if he falls behind in child support
