The Simple Fact About the Michael Brown Shooting

Over the last six month this country has become even more divided not just between Democrats and Republican but now between Black and Whites.

Facts are that the average educated black person recognizes the facts pertaining to the death of Michael Brow:

Facts will show that Mr. Brown was engaged in robbing a store and then fled the scene.

The Robbery was reported and the police were on the look out for the suspect...Michael Brown!

Mr. Brown was pursued and in the process of being apprehended ignored police instructions.

Mr. Brown assaulted and tried to take away the officer's weapon,

Mr. Brown was killed during that process of being arrested.

Why any one would fail to recognize the recognize that Mr. Brown was killed not because he was black but because he tried to kill a police officer is disturbing.

The bottom line is that the officer in question did not wake up that morning and decide to kill a black kid.  But Michael Brown did wake up and decide to go and rob a store!

As a result of Brown's criminal actions he ended up getting killed.  I can't see anyone's outrage.. Mr. Brown victimized his own neighborhood and neighbors.  Brown was not a doctor or a teacher he was a thug who pushed his limits and got killed in the process! 

This is not an issue of black or white!!! It is an issue of a thug committing a crime who got killed after he tried to kill an officer trying to arrest him.  End of story.  No rioting is necessary,  nor a need of further division of black and white an issue!  In fact the matter can be simplified....Don't do the crime and evade being arrested in a manner whereby you threaten the life of an officer.. If you don't resist or endanger they life of others the police won't have to shoot you.

SUPPORTING OUR TROOPS

Am I the only person who finds it alarmingly concerning that our wounded veterans are having to rely on private charitable organizations to supplement the car and support they need after returning home wounded?

SHAME ON EVERY SENATOR, CONGRESSMAN AND MOST OF ALL, OUR PRESIDENT!!!!!

These brave young men and women signed a contract with our nation to serve, protect and defend our nation against all enemies, both foreign and domestic. It is a shame that the true enemy they are facing is our own government.

Our nation has a moral, ethical and above all else legal obligation to ensure that these men, women, and their families, receive the medical and emotional support they are DESERVE AND ARE ENTITLED and not have to rely upon support from private charitable organizations! I ASK,  REALLY WITH ALL THE WASTEFUL GOVERNMENT SPENDING OF THIS ADMINISTRATION ARE WE THAT MORALLY BANKRUPT TO NOT TAKE CARE OF THESE VETERANS AND RELY ON CHARITY?

Charity I was taught begins at home and it is about time the charity stop with foreign aid when so many of our returning service men and women so desperately need our help! Let's right this wrong and demand better for our returning veterans! I ask all you to take five minutes and call your Senators and Congressmen and demand that these returning veterans be supported with the aid they need, deserve and entitled before our tax dollars aid some third world country or other senseless spending program!

 

 

 

VISAS AND UNEFFECTIVE GOVERNMENT

With all our nation's trillion's wasted on senseless government spending I ask when is the government ever going to start asking what are they funding and is funding that funding effective in solving the intended issues?

Tom Ridge announced today that twelve years after 9/11, and in light of the recent tragic events in Boston, that our government and law enforcement have no clue where tens of thousands of foreigners are herein the United States under the pretense of student visas and visas. In addition, Ridge and Congressional members want to know why FBI and DHS ignored documents presented to FBI agents in our embassy in Russia about the Tsarnaev family including both brothers as well as the mother!

Does this sound familar, did we not learn our lesson from the ignored intel that remained uninvestigated prior to 9/11!!! Truly uncomforting and most concerning!

24 YRS AFTER THE FALL OF THE BERLIN WALL ARE WE SAFER?

With the fall of the Iron Curtain and the "Evil Empire's demise" I can not help but wonder if the world is truly a safer?  Our late President Ronald Reagan so committed to the demise of the former Soviet Union perhaps may have miss read who truly are enemies were and are. We built our armed forces to show we were willing to go to toe to toe with the Russians opposing their ideology but again I wonder were they ever a threat.  The more I learn about the former Soviet Union the more I have learned that they like any other country had suffered horrible losses during WWII and wanted to insulate themselves from ever having to be invaded again and suffer such horrendous losses.

Before the fall of the Soviet Union only six nations had nuclear weapons, U.S., USSR, China, U.K. France and Israel.  The Soviets knew of the insatiability in the world and kept order by refusing further nuclear proliferation.  With the fall of the USSR we now have to worry about radical countries such as North Korea, Iran, Pakistan, India, and half a dozen other rogue nations daily trying to obtain nuclear weapons. 

I love this country and I do not think any one on the planet can challenge me on that fact, but as an educated American I have the right to question our leaders and policies if I do not agree with them and do so in a peaceful unchallenged method, i.e. speak freely without worry about being arrested or detained.  As an American I find myself questioning our foreign and domestic policies more and more.  I wonder what right if any do we have to tell any country that the way they treat their citizens is wrong and that they need to change or we will change their ways for them?  Is that sane?  Do we not have enough problems here at home that are unresolved that need immediate attention before fixing the world of their problems? 

I believe that any sovereign nation has the right to peacefully co-exist on this planet with the rest of the world's inhabitants as long as they are not invading or imposing their will on others.  I believe that what happens within your borders is a matter of that nation's citizens and not that of the world and certainly not the United States.  I believe that we should help our allies protect themselves when necessary but I do not believe that our nation should sacrifice our youth for the promotion of our beliefs to be forced upon others.

In the end we have repeatedly been kicked in the groin by nations calling us their friends while our perceived enemies have never invaded our country or committed an act of terrorism on our soil!  I remind everyone that 9/11 was not the Russians but Saudis, Afghans, the recent bombing of the Boston Marathon Chechen Muslim extremist all people who the Soviets had problems with that we defended only to be kicked in the groin by the very people we helped, is that good foreign policy?

Too many of our brave young men and women have given so much to help these people on to be repaid as a nation with violence on our soil against the very citizens who helped these people! 

The time has come to focus on rebuilding our country, its infrastructure and restoring its once mega manufacturing capabilities, while providing jobs to so many out of work. We need to return our troops from foreign soils who will never or understand our beliefs so long as their religion dictates their laws and culture! We as a nation need to round up the scourge that has infiltrated our nation and send them home every last one regardless of color, creed, religion, race if they have no intention to become citizens and live through assimilation in accordance with local, state and federal laws! Until these issues are addressed we will continue to bankrupt us as a nation while our citizens are killed by those who have moved here with the intentions of committing evil.  The time is now to wake up and rebuild our nation to be the shining beacon we once were believed to be and not the laughing stock of the world soon to be bankrupt and over run from outsiders!

U.S. FOREIGN POLICY AND THE BOSTON MARATHON BOMBINGS

It is more than two weeks since we as a nation sat in horror witnessing the latest attack on our beloved country. I cannot help but wonder how a nation conceived in liberty, its constitution allowing for freedom of religion, speech, press and assembly is being destroyed by terrorist who under the pretense of seeking "asylum" use these constitutional freedoms to enter this country!

As our political relations strengthen with our former "enemy" Russia we should accept their sharing of intelligence and warnings about people that they have welcomed to leave! We as a nation can no longer demand that the world treat its citizens the way we do and must accept their laws of governance for their citizens!  Only when their views and politics threaten our citizens and nation's safety should foreign policy change!

With that said the more we learn about the Tsarnaevs the more we need to take a hard look at who we have allowed to visit our shores and what are they up to? Laws need to be passed making colleges and universities report attendance of foreign nationals here on student visas, their failure to attend classes should mean an immediate expulsion and a free trip back to the airport to board a plane back to their homeland. Freedom of speech is for U.S. citizens not foreign nationals!

It is little surprise that the bombers were Muslim extremists. While Christians, Jews, Hindus teach their children how precious life is, to live in harmony with others and to support and defend their country and their right to live and practice in freedom. Muslims teach their children hatred and intolerance of all non believers, they encourage their children martyrdom and that killing non believers is the sure way to get to their warped version of heaven that there is no tolerance for any other religion or other forms of law or justice other than sharia law.

Based on these warnings and the fact that there are so many Arab countries where they could live and practice their religion and law freely one must ask why come here? The reality is that no other country allows for immigrants to come to their country and demand changes to existing laws, customs, regulations, and constitutional freedoms, yet the immigration of Muslims to this country has shown these resident aliens demanding and forcing their extremist religious views upon us! In Fairfax, VA they demand schools serve halal meals to all students, in other parts of the country states, counties, cities etc are demanding that governors, mayors and council members and courts should banish the constitution in favor of sharia Law!

I ask what the hell is wrong with us as a Nation? No where, and I mean no where else in the world would that behavior be tolerated. Our forefathers, and ancestors came to this country to get away from the old laws and ways they were forced to live in their homelands! They agreed to learn English, learn the laws of the U.S. and raise their right hand to be sworn in to be law abiding taxpaying U.S. citizens who agreed to protect our country and defend our constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic. Again, you do not see Jews demanding that all public schools serve kosher meals, Hindus vegan nor do you see Christians demand everyone worship Christ! So Again I ask why the hell are we letting these people into our country and allowing them to make us conform to their ways?

The time has come that under the laws of the Constitution you either agree to live by our laws and assimilate or pack up and go back home if they'll take you back. If you commit an act of terrorism as a U.S. citizen then you are tried for treason and get the expedited death sentence like Timothy McVeigh if you are a foreign national you are sent to Gitmo where the government will give you all the love and attention you demand while in the safe custody away from society. Immigration should be based on desire to live here in peace and accordance with our laws not the ones you felt so oppressive of that you fled your country from! I say let’s get out the ICE agent and FBI six months of overtime and a few dozen ships waiting in the various ports and we will once again make our street and citizens safe to live as a nation under the constitution of the U.S.

Demand that your Senators and Representatives stop this non-sense about passing gun tougher laws and demand that we pass tougher laws on immigration and foreign policy as it effects our nation's safety not our view of how others should govern their citizens!!!!

 

THE WORLD IS A MORE DANGEROUS PLACE

How different and safe the world could be I wonder if we had a the ability to go back in time!

Growing up as a product of the sixties I was constantly told of the evils of the USSR and the empire they controlled destined to invade us and force us into a life of communism.  We watched in the 80's in horror when the Soviets invaded Afghanistan, how Iraq was our allie how President Ronald Reagan had the balls to stand up to all our enemies by showing that America was not a country to be messed with.. with her 600 hundred ship navy prowling the world and our B1Bs and B52s at the standby and missiles loaded in snug in their silos Reagan went toe to toe with Iran, East Germany, Cuba and the evil empire..USSR. 

Through Reagan's taking advantage of a robust economy we were able to bankrupt the Soviets and take down the Axis of Evil.  Today our economy can sustain our military.  Our once mighty fleet of 600 gleeming ships of prey reduced to less than 250 while we fighting wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Kosovo and now potentially Iran and Iraq.  With the Soviets in power we always could count on them never allowing their puppet states to obtain or gain access to nuclear, chemical or biological weapons.  Today ever two bit thug with a check book now can hold us at bay while threatening us with potential release of nuclear weapons. 

How safe and better a place perhaps the world would be if we allowed the Soviets to wipe out the Islamic extremists that threaten the world of Infidels and non believers! How safe I wonder would the world be if our idiot elected officials today had the common sense to understand that Reagan was able to succeed in keeping us safe because we had an economy able to fund and supply the brave men and women serving our nation.  How safe would the world be if we were a country able to still feed the world and exportation of goods by the ship load we keep people employed to pay the taxes needed to fund our military.

Bottom line how safe would the world be if we could go back in time and keep our nation focused on the common sense approaches Ronald Reagan used to lead what was our nation's potentially second finest hour?

NO MONEY FOR PROGRAMS THEN NO PAY CHECKS FOR LEGISLATORS OR THE PRESIDENT!!

Today, the White House announced that due to sequestration all tours of the White House will be cancelled. Perhaps in the spirit of cost containment and fiscal responsibility we as citizens should restrict the President to staying at the White House instead of spending millions of dollars every time he wants to go to Five Guys in Arlington or take his girls for ice cream in Alexandria, or everytime he has the Air Force warm up one of seven 747s or 777 any time he feels like taking a global vacation?

Should we not withhold all pay checks for both the Senate and House until they sit down and get their acts together to start to put  differences aside and fix our Nation's economic crisis in the next week with legitimate resolution and creativeness to overhaul taxes, fix our nation's infrastructure and once and for all put the tens of millions of Americans who want to work back to work with real jobs?

Not for nothing but would we not be better off with a flat tax for all citizens of 7.5% and a 15% for corporations and imposing a national VAT of 1.5%.  Would we not be better off having everyone pay something than to have more than half paying nothing while the other half pays for everyone?

I am pretty sure that if you locked these clowns in the building and would not let them out until there was resolution to our budget and economic wows things would get done!  So let's flood the switchboards of the House, Senate and White House and demand this situation be resolved by the end of next week or not one of them gets paid!
