Man up-Evan Jenne!

Man up Evan Jenne-that is the response that bests fits his recent temper tantrum at the State Capitol. On February 19, Democratic Florida House Candidate Freda Stevens visited the Capitol to speak with a legislator about a proposed bill. When exiting the Capitol building she saw Rep. Evan Jenne. Upon noticing her, Jenne screamed, “I thought you were not going to go negative. I got your flyer. You sent it to everyone. It said something about my dad.” Freda responded, “What flyer? What are you talking about? I did not send out any flyers!” Then Evan stormed into the Capitol building without explaining his temper tantrum. Other legislators stood by wondering what the commotion was about. Freda responded, “I don’t know what you are talking about!” Let’s lay the cards on the table here-Evan needs to man up! How can he play victim to negative attacks when he has Judy Stern as a campaign consultant? Maybe he should stop and think about where this is really coming from. For the past four months Rep. Jenne has made several outbursts against his opponent. On one occasion he started ranting and raving calling her names at his condo in Dania Beach. Witnesses say he starting crying talking about the fact that he has an opponent in this election. Apparently, Jenne does not understand the democratic process and the voters right to choose their elected officials. Getting elected is a privilege: voting is a right, not the other way around!

Democratic Candidate Speaks on Domestic Violence and Religion

February 17, Freda spoke to Judah Word Worship Center in Sunrise, about Domestic Violence. The Women’s group meets monthly to discuss various topics, usually the third Sunday. This month the theme was Abuse.

Freda spoke on Domestic Violence & Religion. 

Here are a few highlights from Freda’s presentation:

a) Ninety-five percent of victims of domestic violence are members of a local church or synagogue.

b) Domestic violence is about control not religion.

c) There are three biblical examples of relationships found in the bible: the relationship between God and man, the relationship between Christ and the church, and the relationship between husband and wife.

d) The three relationships have two characteristics in common: love and giving.

Domestic violence destroys families. DV does not represent biblical relationships. The role of the church or synagoge should be to raise awareness of domestic violence, provide resources,  support, counseling, and to report domestic violence to the police. DV is not a private matter. DV is not biblical.

Broward county has faced a 300% increase in domestic violent murders since last year, according to BSO. Another senseless domestic violence murder happened Feb. 21. A Davie man killed his wife in a domestic dispute. She leaves behind two children.

WE MUST DO MORE TO PREVENT DOMESTIC VIOLENCE.
