I am a unique individual. I am a Democrat, a Republican, a Conservative, a Liberal. I am the Left; I am the Right.
I am a Theist, and a Fundamentalist. I am pragmatic and idealistic.
Allegorically speaking, you may crap on me once and I will turn the other cheek -
Meaning you may crap on me twice. And if you come back the third time - I will not stop you.
But when you are finished, I will put my foot up your a-hole, stuff the crap down your throat until it comes out of your ears. So…I guess that also makes me an activist!

Trayvon Martin's Senseless Death

Over the past few days, I have been following the story of Trayvon Martin, the 17 year-old African-American boy killed by George Zimmerman.

This morning something caught my eye - Zimmerman’s picture!
2005 Mug Shot

So far he has not been arrested for the death of Trayvon - but he has on an Orange Jumpsuit!

So I did a little investigating. Jackpot!




In 2005 George Zimmerman was arrested twice:
(1) Domestic Violence
(2) Assaulting a Police Officer.

What in the Hell is a Violent (domestic abuser) and Aggressive (assaulting a law officer) Poor Excuse for man doing with a damned gun???

Can you hear the shuffling of Lawyer’s feet trying to get this case???

I swear every time these Sick Senseless Crimes happen - it seems to be in Florida.

Protests are going on all over the country - crying out for justice - but the Sanford Police have not yet arrested this POS. And people want to know why…

Why? Because Florida's justice system sucks.

Look at the justice Caylee Anthony got!

Plus I know from personal experience that criminals are let go and cases dropped because of slapdash and inferior investigations.

The Sanford Police department made false statements to Martin’s parents; and also tested the dead boy for drugs and alcohol - but not Zimmerman.
The Sanford Police Chief has now stepped down at least for the time being. I don’t think it was for coming under fire for shi**y police work. I think it was to put his sorry a$$ in hiding.

So out of the blue this Frank Taaffe comes to the defense of George Zimmerman.
First he says Zimmerman is a kind caring man - “…a congenial, admirable person," with “a passion and care for this neighborhood, to ensure the safety of everybody here."

Then he says “There had been 8 Burglaries within the past 15 months most done by young black males...."
Adding - “I think he was mad as hell and he wasn't going to take it anymore".

In other words - "racial profiling! Zimmerman's ensuring the safety of everybody in the neighborhood did not include 'young black males'.

Nice going Frank Taaffe! You did your friend a great service in your 15 minutes of fame!

199900003901 

And who is this Frank Taaffe??? Another POS, of course!

Frank Taaffe was arrested some years back for - Guess What???

For Domestic Violence - for violating an injunction!!!

One con sticking up for another! Birds of a feather!

Two pathetic woman beaters!

And another case in point that men who abuse the ones they are supposed to love have no regard for the lives of another human being.

Taaffe got his 15 minutes of fame - and right along with it came The Sh*t he had in his closet!!!

At least there is some justice in that ...

The Price of Freedom

I was reading an article on the atrocities taking place in Syria. How horrible that small children were pulled from the arms of their mothers - then raped, beaten with rifles, shot at point blank range, and in some cases burned alive.

And under the article some poster commented - “We don’t care about these people - they brought it on themselves.”

Absolutely unbelievable!

The Syrian people have been oppressed for over forty years under the al-Assad regime. Hafez al-Assad isolated his people from the rest of the world. His son, Bashar al-Assad, the current dictator, is responsible for the atrocities going on today.

When Bashar became President and his ability to rule was questioned - he thought he could win his people over by allowing the Internet and satellite TV into the country.

His plan backfired.

When the people of Syria educated themselves and began demanding civil rights and economic reform - the regime retaliated and the atrocities began.

It is heart-wrenching knowing so many Syrians are waking up every morning having to hear fighting in their streets and the screams of innocent men, women and children being tortured and brutally murdered.

These people just wanted to be treated fairly, to be regarded as citizens worthy of respect. So when I hear that some a$$hole says ‘Who cares’ it makes my blood boil.

Is he saying that they deserve to be tortured and brutally murdered for wanting freedom from oppression? Is he saying that it is okay for innocent children to be murdered because one day they will grow up demanding the same rights?

For those who feel the same way - I can tell you that they take their freedoms for granted. You know why? Because they did not fight for them; they did not shed one single drop of blood! Our forefathers did it for them!

So…Why don’t you get up from your computer - go find your big girl panties, put them on because you’re going to need them - then go get your passport and buy a one-way ticket to Damascus - and see what it’s like for people to have to fight for the freedoms you have in this country!

If you are lucky enough not to get caught in the crossfire - please don't make plans to come back here. We still don't want you here - because you weren't humane enough to care in the first place.

Matthew 25:41-46

“Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels.

For I was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me no drink, I was a stranger and you did not welcome me, naked and you did not clothe me, sick and in prison and you did not visit me.’

Then they also will answer, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to you?’

Then he will answer them, saying, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to me.’

And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”

The Truth of The Matter


I recently heard that a friend of mine has an acquaintance whose son age 18 went to enlist in the military and was denied. The boy at the age of 13, had been having problems with his much younger sibling always getting into his things - and a mother who didn’t seem to see the importance of the privacy for the older brother. This put the older son in a position to protect his own belongings and he began slapping the younger sibling and of course always got in trouble for hitting.

On one day so frustrated, the older son hit his younger sibling harder than he had before and the mother out of her own frustration and without thinking of the repercussions decided to call the police to teach her son a lesson. What this mother did was ruin the rest of her son’s life.

I was bothered by this and contacted an old friend who is in the military who then put me in contact with a recruiter friend of his.

What I was told is:

Guys get in fights with friends, guys get into brawls at bars and get charged with assault. We see this all of the time and we know we can pretty much get them straightened out in boot camp. But when someone assaults a family member - someone they are supposed to care about, to love - then it is our position that they don’t care about anyone or anything - and we do not want these kind of people in our ranks. They’re trouble from the get-go.

Then I asked him about the sealed record. If this kid was 13 when this happened and the record was sealed how did the military get a hold of it?

And he answered:

A sealed record, juvenile or adult - is basically something moved from one drawer to another. Anyone with the knowledge or know-how to access the records i.e. Military-Judges-Lawyers, detectives, etc. can find them.
And if the charges were ever posted on the Internet, they can be found as well.

Additionally, even though the defendant in a case is granted any rights to not acknowledge a criminal charge or where the general public may have difficulty in finding this information - there is still a Victim who cannot be ordered by a court to say he or she was never a victim of the plaintiff’s crime.

The victim can always provide evidence by a show of court documents, summons to appear - and if the crime was posted on the Internet, the defendant most likely will have proof of the crime from that source as well.

The Truth of The Matter is:

You cannot undo the things you have done. You cannot pretend that what you have done never happened. Your actions will follow you all the days of your life.

How Con Artists Work

I found this great article on Con Artists by Ed Grabianowski

Con artists make money through deception. They lie, cheat and fool people into thinking they've happened onto a great deal or some easy money, when they're the ones who'll be making money.

If that doesn't work, they'll take advantage of our weaknesses -- loneliness, insecurity, poor health or simple ignorance.

The only thing more important to a con artist than perfecting a con is perfecting a total lack of conscience.

What does the average con artist look like? Despite what you may think, he isn't always a shady-looking character. A con artist is an expert at looking however he needs to look. If the con involves banking or investments, the con artist will wear a snappy suit. If it involves home improvement scams, he'll show up wearing well-worn work clothes. Even the basic assumption that the con is a "he" is incorrect: there are plenty of con women too.

You might think you can spot a con artist because he's someone you instinctively "don't trust." But the term con artist is short for confidence artist -- they gain your confidence just long enough to get their hands on your money.

They can be very charming and persuasive. A good con artist can even make you believe he is really an old friend you haven't seen in years.

Con artists do share certain characteristics, however.

Even the best con can only go on for so long before people start getting suspicious.
For that reason, con artists tend to move frequently.

They may have a job that allows this, or they might claim to have such a job. Railroad worker, carnival worker and traveling salesman are all parts con artists play to cover up their constant relocations.

It would be impo­ssible to catalogue every con, because con artists are inventive. While many cons are simply variations on ones that are hundreds of years old, new technologies and laws give con artists the opportunity to create original scams.

Many cons tend to fall into a few general categories, however: street cons, business cons, Internet cons, loan cons and home improvement cons.

Husband Sacrifices Life Jacket For Wife

Reading the article on the Costa Concordia Cruise Disaster from Huffington post what kept coming back at me was…

He did what any husband would have done for his wife.

Again

He did what any husband would have done for his wife.

As the Costa Concordia cruise ship went down off the west coast of Italy Jan. 13, Nicole Servel's husband, Francis, gave her the only life jacket they had. He knew Nicole could not swim.

He did what any husband would have done for his wife.

Then Francis Servel disappeared into the icy waters.

He did what any husband would have done for his wife.

God Bless you Francis Servel. You will be rewarded in Heaven!

Again the words resonated inside of me -

He did what any husband would have done for his wife.

Any husband but mine.

Mine would have donned the lifejacket - laughed as he prepared to swim to shore and would have as he turned to swim - pushed me under the icy waters hoping to speed up the process of my demise.
I envision that he would have turned when he had placed some distance between us just to see if I had risen back to the surface.
And confident because he did not see me swimming that I was gone - would have laughed the rest of the way to shore.

After many years of marriage, my husband out of the blue - walked out on me. He thought I would drown in the sorrow.

No Buddy, I would not die for your leaving.

But what you did after that I guess I could call it a “touch and go.”

However, I was able to get public assistance to keep me afloat.

Damn…she’s not drowning yet!

So next step - He stopped paying the storage bill and I lost everything. Things that can never be replaced!

And for a moment - another touch and go - but…

Damn… she’s not drowning yet!

No "Mr.Whatever Name You Are Hiding Behind Today"…Not Yet!

You see I grabbed on to whatever would keep me afloat or perhaps it was the hand much stronger than your hand which dared to push me under the icy waters - the Hand of God - who lifted me up…

Because as Robert Frost wrote:

I have... "miles to go before I sleep"

Company 34 at Zazzle



I thought I would put together a video showing some of the art in my Zazzle shop. I love botanical art and collages. And I love smooth jazz so I used "Acoustic Alchemy" for the music.
