Is Misguided Children a Cult? The La Paz of the Internet

This is in response to the broadcast this morning by Pedro of the Misguided Children calling me a "faggot" and other sorts of names.  It is interesting to note that he attacked because it was claimed he was a member of the Muslim Brotherhood. I never made that claim about Pedro, and I am unfamiliar with anyone else that did. Indeed, anyone with his history of drug use can hardly be regarded as a Muslim. The allegation was actually about Robert Rice, the IT guy for the Misguided Children. Furthermore, the allegation was that Mr. Rice had a Facebook relationship with Mr. Morisi, the former leader of Egypt. Nowhere was it asserted that Pedro was, merely that the top of the organization appeared to have that affiliation. 

Mr. Rice's defense has been a rather silly you tube that in no manner addresses the issues raised in this blog.

Indeed, in blog comments last night on the Patriot group post, Mr. Rice practically admitted to knowledge of the virus software on the Free Patriot blog.

However, I would be remiss if I did not point out a few facts: 


I have never worked for the Misguided Children.
I was a prospective customer.
I am the wife of a disabled veteran.
I am the wife of an American who was born 
in Havana who became a citizen as a teen.

I am not homosexually oriented, as Pedro suggests.

I have repeatedly asked for proof that veterans were being helped by the Misguided Children.  I have asked for proof that veterans were making the shirts. All I have seen is proof that Pedro has a bad temper, yells a lot of cuss words, and has a great time ingesting substances of questionable value. 

I merely asked him to back his claims. This has not been forthcoming.

Speaking of threatening..... my original post today was going to be on the similarities between Misguided Children and the Cult of Caesar Chavez.

The style with which Pedro runs his group reminds me of  Caeser Chavez.  Caesar Chavez was a friend of Sal Alinksy. Pedro, like Caesar, insists that those involved with the Misguided Children cut off their other associations in the world of Facebook.  Caesar Chavez would isolate his farm workers from the rest of the world in a compound known as La Paz.  There, Chavez  and his cronies would spend his time screaming at the farm workers as a form of "shock" therapy to make them more docile. Caesar Chavez would pay them as little as $10.00 a week and expect them to work 14-16 hours a day.

Based on the comments that are coming out in many of the blogs, it would seem that the Misguided Children operated the same way. Not merely one or two disgruntled employees, but a large number have related a similar story in blog commentaries throughout the web: employees worked long hours, received little if any pay, and were expected to forgo other Facebook relationships and remain isolated from the rest of the Facebook world. Screaming, yelling, cussing, and abusive commentary isn't a "show personae" but the way the organization operates.

This is far more like Chavez's La Paz than America.

It would seem that Pedro Ferran has adopted the same methodology as Caesar Chavez. Pedro's threats of violence against those who have left his group sound very much like Chavez's attacks on immigrants in the name of the United Farm Workers on Mexicans.  

There is no doubt that Chavez's commune was a cult. In the end, Chavez declared himself God. Is Misguided Children headed toward a cult? Will Pedro declare himself God?

The similarities between Caesar Chavez and Pedro Ferran are rather disconcerting. Shock therapy, isolating the "enemy" who is not in his group, isolating employees  and threats of violence are the hallmarks of Alinsky style tactics used by Chavez and later by Obama. Ferran appears to be using the same methodology with the Misguided Children. 

I am not saying passionate discussion should not be discouraged. It should be welcome. Censorship of debate and discussion are the hallmarks of Obama's regime. This appears to also be the hallmark of Pedro Ferran's group. Screaming obscenities at the top of their lungs at customers and employees is not the way to restore our nation. It only substitutes one dictator with another, and one abuser with another.

If you are a member of Misguided Children, prayerfully consider your isolation from other groups on the internet and in real life. 

The Keylogger Program Associated with Visits at Uncle Sam's Misguided Children

Some people who frequented the Uncle Sam's Misguided Children area have reported that they found key logging software on their computers. I mentioned this on the first blog. Before I posted the screenshot of it, I wanted to get permission from the person in question to be able to publish the screen shot. 

I have secured that permission. I wasn't going to post it, but after Pedro Rick Ferran came on the radio on 9/3/2013 following Paul Shannon claiming we were engaged in slander and that this blog had no proof of the key logger, I thought I would show it. 

As indicated in the first blog, the typical pathway for the Key logger is c:/windows/livekernel  

It looks like below (click on the image to enlarge it):

Some may wonder what is the big deal with the Watchdog program? What exactly does it do? Well, it can block website and make the USMC webpage "sticky." It can be used to block users from going to certain websites. It is used to monitor key strokes, and record each and every keystroke, chat, email, and mouse click. Thus, if you enter a credit card number into a website, or make flirtations comment to someone in chat .... that would be entered into Watchdog and transmitted to the person who placed it there. .This makes the person very vulnerable to having their account accessed or being blackmail.  It can take screenshots and send them at certain intervals such as daily, weekly, and hourly. 

It is a very useful piece of software to "spy" on your customers and it essentially turned USMC into a min-NSA. Parents sometimes buy it to spy on their children, and employers to spy on their employees. You can read more about the friendly form at this screenshot below. The malicious version associated with the Misguided Children's website can be removed easily if detected early.  One popular program is often effective in removing the spyware (and is free) is Malware Bytes.  

Removing the virus in this case is the easy part. What can't be undone is the damage as a result of your keystrokes being transmitted. As always, change your passwords, check your bank statements, and consult your bank if you see any suspicious bank activity.

The phone number for Leatherneck, the firm that handles the business transactions of the Misguided Children, is not accurately stated on the receipts. The number that appeared was for Ft. Lauderdale Directory Information.  See the first installment of his blog to find out how to contact the company. 

The Enthusiasm of Molly Dunn Powell for Pedro Ricardo Ferran

Avid readers of this blog will note the enthusiasm of Molly Dunn Powell in the comments section and her fascination with the year 1998. Her particular vernacular is quite interesting and perhaps reflects her unique style of social media marketing. Many may recall her under the screen name of "Shiloh Rebel." One of her more eloquent comments is below.

For those who are not aware, Molly Dunn Powell she is currently the "Marketing Strategists" for the Misguided Children group. This is hardly surprising given her long term association with Mr. Ferran.
Here is the screen shot from her Link Ed and that of Pedro Ricardo Ferran.

*************

As you may recall from my earlier entry, Mr. Ferran has several businesses, including YEMX.  But it would seem they have ran in the same industries in the same circles, so these two are at best acquaintances. Prior to the Misguided Children stint, Powell had a brief adventure as a weight loss counselor. She seemed to have entered this industry just after Rick Ferran left Health Care Recruiting. Prior to that, Ferran was a business manager while Powell owned a construction company. Sarasota is not that big of a city, and it is quite likely they have known each other in at least a business capacity since the late 1990s.

The more curious aspect is the enthusiasm of Powell's responses to this blog. Powell's construction company, started in December of 1998, seems to have shut down in 2010, per the records of the state of Florida.  That would have freed up a bit of cash put up for bonding. Is it a stretch to speculate that Powell might have contributed financially to  the  the Misguided branding?

Perhaps that is why the year 1998 is so important to Molly Powell.

By the way, this isn't the only place where Powell has expressed her enthusiasm. Powell had only recently taken on the formal duties of the Misguided children.  Hours after a large portion of the staff logged out of the Misguided Children for the last time, Powell expressed her general angst on her Facebook page. One of the members of the upper management of Wells Fargo, Mr. Kilinski, seemed very sympathetic to her cause and offered to guide her toward effective resources. This offers an insight to the new expanded services by Wells Fargo. Click on the image to read the interaction.

Would you want to find people to "wack" for a job you just had a month? Or is this emotional reaction more in line with someone's investment being in trouble?

Just a thought....
