	Australian vigilantes picket homes and call for death to adulterers \| The Guardian \| Guardian Unlimited
		The Blackshirts are former husbands aggrieved by their treatment at the hands of their ex-wives and the courts, who regard themselves as the vanguard of a "men's rights" movement in Australia and say that their actions will be remembered as marking a turning-point in history.
		Blackshirts, who must renounce any partner taken since the breakdown of their marriage, have picketed Melbourne's family law courts for more than a decade, but only in the past year have they begun going for people in their homes.
		Blackshirts are adept at keeping on the right side of the law and none has been charged with a criminal offence for activity with the group.

	The man in black who sees red - theage.com.au
		By demanding adultery be treated like murder by the courts, the Blackshirts are seeking the creation of a law that does not currently exist in Western society.

	Barbelith Underground > Switchboard > Australia's Blackshirts: the dark side of the force
		It is well known that the Blackshirts are a group of men who are taking revenge on their ex-wives (and in the process scaring the crap out of the kids they supposedly love so much).
		As to the Australian Blackshirts, I don't think it's really gonna take that much ideological soul searching to discover why standing on the street in a large group shouting at a global economic system is legitimate, and standing on the street in a large group shouting at a single mother isn't..
		Blackshirts are demonstrating as individuals disguised as groups, thus while their rhetoric may speak more about the detriment to society that female-initiated divorces (which I'd wager a good majority are), their actions are more about their personal feelings of disempowerment, which they counteract through intimidation that only the bravado a mob mentality affords them.

		With Blackshirts as sentinels down the sides of the hall Mosley marched to the dais to the strains of amplified ‘martial music’ to stand alone with ‘a silver buckle the only relief to his all fl uniform, at the foot of a gigantic Union Jack which stretched from the platform almost to the lofty roof.
		The correspondent, having thanked ‘the Blackshirts for their kindness in organising the New Year’s party for the poorer children of Castle Ward’ commented that it was ‘about time someone thought about the local girls and boys instead of the foreign refugees’.

	Green Left - Brunswick mobilises against Blackshirts
		The Blackshirts are a Brunswick-based men's group united in their concern to restore and promote the “traditional family”.

		She argued that current moves to weaken no-fault divorce laws, the directing of funds towards the goal of “saving marriages” and the stripping of funds from women's domestic violence help services are putting pressure on women to stay in dysfunctional marriages.

		The "Blackshirts" is organised along paramilitary-style lines, adopting tactics including telephoning women it says are having extra-marital affairs to interrogate them and sending letters to their neighbours outlining the alleged infidelity.
		LEE FORMICA: Men tend to keep things to themselves and upon a breakdown of the marriage, they feel extremely isolated and fearful of what the impact is going to be on the relationship with their children and what the future holds for them.

		Blackshirts & Reds explores some of the big issues of our time: fascism, capitalism, communism, revolution, democracy, and ecology - terms often bandied about but seldom explored in the original and exciting way that has become Michael Parenti's trademark.
		"Blackshirts and Reds" fills a huge gap for the general reader and is not to be missed.
		In "Blackshirts and Reds" he again demonstrates his willingness to go against the orthodoxy of both the right, center and unfortunately left, by revealing facts and truths the powers that be just don't want to be bothered with; and many honorable leftists are afraid to utter for the fear of being branded as Stalinist sympathizers.

		Within a year after the war, almost all Italian fascists were released from prison while hundreds of communists and other leftist partisans who had been fighting the Nazi occupation were jailed.
		History was turned on its head, transforming the Blackshirts into victims and the Reds into criminals.
		Under the protection of U.S. occupation authorities, the police, courts, military, security agencies, and bureaucracy remained largely staffed by those who had served the former fascist regimes or by their ideological recruits-as is true to this day.

		Timid alarmists all this week have been whimpering that the rapid growth in numbers of the British Blackshirts is preparing the way for a system of rulership by means of steel whips and concentration camps.
		As a purely British organization, the Blackshirts will respect those principles of tolerance which are traditional in British politics.

		Blackshirts and Reds explores some of the big issues of our time: fascism, capitalism, communism, revolution, democracy and ecology — terms often bandied about but seldom explored in the original and exciting way that has become Michael Parenti's trademark.
