Robbery suspect killed by victim

http://www.charlotteobserver.com/topstories/story/887994.html

I don’t feel joy when someone is killed. But, there sure are times when you really feel that justice has been dealt, and they got what they deserved. The thug made a choice to commit a crime, an armed robbery. The tables were flipped on him by someone who decided to fight back. The crook is to blame for his own actions… he got what he deserved. Perhaps, his two other thug buddies will also get what they deserve. Hopefully, justice finds them swiftly.

House of Raeford is firing illegal immigrants

http://www.charlotteobserver.com/258/story/884790.html

Once, more than 80 percent Latino, the production floor at the Raeford plant is now up to 70 percent African American                                      

Well, it’s about time.  Give Americans back their jobs!  Those who support illegal immigration can always be found saying, “illegal immigrants only work the jobs Americans no longer want or are too lazy to do.”  Bullshit.

At this particularly factory, the employment of Hispanics went from 80% to under 30% as Raeford started getting rid of those employees who did not have the proper paperwork. They’ve had little trouble filling those positions that illegal immigrants once illegally occupied.  Good for Raeford and good for those Americans who have been able to get a job in these tough economic times.

Testing

I'm testing the desktop gadget "Blogger Buddy". I'm using Windows 7 and it is really great. Hopefully, this little gadget works well. I'd use it for shorter posts. I normally use Windows Live Writer and love it. But, I do like trying different things.

I haven't posted lately, just been too damn busy. Maybe, you guys will get lucky and I'll "run my mouth" more often.

Prosecutor: Juvenile sexual assault is 'heartrending'

http://www.cnn.com/2009/CRIME/07/23/phoenix.juvenile.assault/index.html

A group of young teens gang rape an 8 year-old child and the parents and family of this young girl blame her. I know what I’d like to do to those useless young thugs, and they would have to arrest me for the ass beating they’d get. Hopefully, the punks also do real prison time.

But, the parents of that child need a power punch to the throat, and that child needs to be put into a better home. Most of the people living in this community in Phoenix are from Liberia, as are her parents. I am so damn tired of hearing people say “that’s just their culture and we should try to understand and respect their beliefs”......BULLSHIT! I do not respect and will never respect a culture that treats other human beings like property or pieces of trash easily discarded. So many of these backwards ass douchebag cultures and religions treat women and children horribly, and it is unacceptable. This is the 21st century and these ignorant ass beliefs must change. And, in this country, we should never allow any religion or culture to treat others in such a brutal way and allow someone to brush it off because "that’s just what they believe". Fuck their culture and fuck their beliefs.

This is what the 23 year-old sister of that 8 year-old little girl said;

The sister, who was not identified by name by the station, expressed mixed feelings about her sister's attack. "I came to her and said it's not good for you to be following guys because you are still little," the sister told KTVK. She also said that she wanted the suspects to be released from jail because "we are the same people."

"When she comes back I'm going to tell her don't ever do that again because all of us, we are the same family, we are from the same place. Now she is just bringing confusion among us. Now the other people, they don't want to see her," the sister told KTVK.

What a terrible and disgusting thing to say. Her little sister was just raped by four punks, and she is worried about what the other backwards ass ignorant people in her community are going to say. Pathetic.

Update:

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/32122954/ns/us_news-crime_and_courts/

The outrage over the allegations has intensified when police said the girl's parents criticized her after the attack and blamed her for bringing shame on the family.

"The father told the case worker and an officer in her presence that he didn't want her back. He said 'Take her, I don't want her,'" Hill said.

Family says dog killed by cousin can't be replaced

http://www.wcnc.com/news/topstories/stories/wcnc-072309-al-dog_killed_by_cousin.6ab287c3.html

From the story;

Now investigators say Buddy was killed in a crime that is hard to understand. Police say the dog’s body was cut up and mutilated by Gage’s own cousin, James McAlister. ______________________________________

This is the type of story that really gets me raging, and causes me to doubt the goodness left in humanity. What in the hell is wrong with people? The cousin took a chainsaw to the dog, tortured him and then cut him up. WTF!?

If that’s not enough to make you angry, sad and vengeful- then check out these monsters;

Ohio- 3 accused of letting rats chew toes off baby

Not one of those three took the time to care for and protect that child. What in the hell was the mother doing? She’s not yet been charged. So, four people let this horrible thing happen to this baby. It breaks my heart, and really causes me to want to hurt those freaks.

And yet, another story of parental neglect and rats;

New Orleans: Baby covered in rodent bites bled to death

How do two parents not notice their baby was being bitten and eaten by rats? Could they not hear the crying and screaming of that poor child? Did they not check on their baby? Damn, some people need to be put down… really.

Family fears budget cuts will lead to murderer's release

Family fears budget cuts will lead to murderer's release

Make room in our prisons by taking every illegal immigrant and sending them back to their country. If our borders were being defended properly, there would be fewer illegal immigrants getting into our country, and fewer overwhelming our local jails and state prisons... draining resources that we cannot afford. The Constitution demands that the government provide for the defense of this Nation- that includes our borders.

It's bad enough that our prison system does not uphold a life sentence, but to let a murderer come up for possible release after only 9 years is a travesty... an enormous injustice. He shouldn't even be allowed a hearing for parole.

We also need to adjust some of the sentencing guidelines for drug related crimes. Especially, for those arrested with small amounts. And, I seriously think it is past time to stop locking up so many folks for marijuana and the absurd "drug paraphernalia" laws.

Newsvine - 7 young Pa. lemonade sellers have brush with law

I'm all for law enforcement and the police doing their jobs, but surely there are more important things to do in Philadelphia rather than hassle some kids selling lemonade. Of course, the whole situation started because some bitter douchebag didn't like kids to begin with and called the police.

What happened to our independence?

Perhaps, we should rename “Independence Day” to “Dependence Day”. This Nation is increasingly becoming a nation of people who do not care that the government wants and demands to “take care of us”. Of course, it’s because “it’s in our best interest”. Unfortunately, a lot of folks just readily accept this, and even squall for more.

This Republic has become a freakish monstrosity of what our Founding Fathers envisioned and planned. Sadly, too many people just don’t care about the dependence trap that our Nation, the government and people are willingly descending into. A pitiful shell of what once was.

Some things that people do are, well, just dumb. I tend not to have too much sympathy for ignorant fools who engage in stupid tricks or eating stunts and then get sick or injured. Speed eating contests are especially stupid IMO, and extremely wasteful. I don't think there's anything cool or special about freaks who want to stuff their faces until they're sick.

Beazer Homes neighborhood feels fallout from foreclosures - CharlotteObserver.com


I think we need to start giving some sort of financial literacy test, and maybe even a license to sign contracts. Yes, the crooks at Beazer need to be punished. But, becoming a "victim" of this scam required interaction, and those that are fiscally ignorant and/or fiscally irresponsible are the ones that got punked. And, that's not my fault nor is it my responsibility to bail them out. Ignorance and irresponsible behavior does and should have consequences. Own it, accept it, learn from it and move on.

Folks need to stop wanting so bad and accept what they need and can afford.People want to go straight to larger homes and forget any mention of starting in a smaller "starter" home. Ignorant and irresponsible excessive behavior has repercussions.

John Edwards is such a little punk.

Book deal changes story on baby - CharlotteObserver.com

John Edwards is such a pathetic little man. I hope he is utterly destroyed and never recovers from this. He goes on national TV to tell the "truth" but just kept right on lying...just like Bill Clinton did. You know, I don't care so much about who a person sleeps with. But, I tend to get pissed off when someone insults my intelligence by continuing the endless lies and doing so looking straight into a camera. They just keep digging themselves into these bottomless pits of lies. Elizabeth Edwards needs to punk slap her worthless husband. Perhaps, she needs to talk with Jenny Sanford on how to kick the trash to the curb.

Yes- I will miss Michael Jackson.

A lot of things can be said about Michael Jackson. Often, genius comes with a price. Eccentric and erratic behavior seems to be the norm for those that are brilliant at something. Most of us cannot really relate... so, we should be very careful about judging those who, in many ways, actually make our lives better or provide some welcome diversion from the mundane realities of every day life. Being born in 1968, I grew up watching and listening to the Jacksons during the 70s and then was drawn into Michael's music during the 80s... as were so many. His influence was broad and powerful, even if you weren't a big fan. It's been awhile since I really listened to Michael's music, and when I heard the news of his death I was shocked like many others, but I didn't really feel that sad about it. Then, I went looking for his CD's I had stashed in a cabinet. I put "Thriller" in, (I actually have the vinyl album, too) and a rush of feelings started coming over me, and I remembered how thoroughly he dominated the years I was in Jr. High School and High School... much of his music a soundtrack to the memories I have growing up. I'll miss you, Michael.

Mecklenburg County painfully tightens its belt | CharlotteObserver.com

I bet there's quite a bit of money to be cut by cutting any and all funding that goes to helping illegal immigrants. If one American citizen is denied aid because that money is being spent on *illegal* immigrants, that is one too many. Illegal immigrants have added to the misery of our overcrowded schools, added to the expense of the free and reduced lunch program, added to the cost for more books and supplies and the additional expense of special language teachers and classes.
They've added expense to our court system, our jails, law enforcement. The violent Hispanic gangs that have riden in on our open door policy have required extra law enforcement and task groups, too. They've most certainly added to the strain our emergency rooms are feeling and they're sucking money from social services. Illegal immigrants are either working under the table and not paying taxes or they're working with a stolen SS number, stolen identities.
The infiltration and proliferation of illegal immigrants into the workplace causes wages to be held down, held down by those who should not be here.

Mother, son charged after dogs in SUV die

What is wrong with some people?  I just don’t understand people’s lack of compassion.  Why would a person have pets if they didn’t love them or want to care for them?  It makes absolutely no sense to me… none.

Those uncaring douches need a punishing punch to the throat and swift kick to the head.  That’s just a start.

Let’s see if this works

Okay, so here I am trying the blogging tool, Windows Live Writer, again.

I’m going to try using it with my Live Spaces blog and my blog on Blogger.

Might make it easier for me to “run my mouth”.
