HELLO MY FRIENDS, I'VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT THE ETHICS OF CAPITOL PUNISHMENT. AHH!!, THE MUCH DEBATED SUBJECT OF MURDER CARRIED OUT BY STATE GOVERNMENT. NOW I CAN TELL YOU THAT, I AM NEITHER AN EXTREME LIBERAL NOR A DIE HARD CONSERVATIVE. SOME OF MY VIEWS ARE INDEED CONSERVATIVE (DOWN RIGHT OLD FASHIONED,LOL) AND SOME ARE LIBERAL ( MAYBE TOO LIBERAL). WHAT CAN I SAY (I'M A GEMINI!!), I CAN SEE TWO SIDES OF ALMOST EVERY ARGUEMENT. I TEND TO USE THE LEFT AND RIGHT SIDES OF MY BRAIN. AND SOMETIMES THIS CAN BE A BLESSING AND A CURSE!! BUT ANYHOW, I WON'T DIGRESS ANYMORE THAN I ALREADY HAVE. I WILL STATE MY QUESTION IN REFERENCE TO THE DEATH PENALTY (CAPITOL PUNISHMENT), AND GIVE YOU MY ANSWER. IS THAT FAIR ENOUGH? OK,DO I BELIEVE IN THE DEATH PENALTY?- THE ANSWER IS YES AND NO!! ( THERE GOES THAT GEMINI THING AGAIN,ARRGH!!) YES,I BELIEVE THAT A PERSON (IF MOST CERTAINLY ARE PROVEN GUILTY,NO QUESTION WHAT SO EVER OF GUILT) SHOULD BE EXECUTED SHOULD THEY TAKE THE LIFE OF ANOTHER. ( LET'S NOT FORGET WHAT THE OLD TESTAMENT,QURAN AND TORAH HAS TO SAY ON THESE MATTERS. OMG,IT IS GRUESOME!!) BUT NO, I DON'T THINK IT RIGHT FOR SOME RANDOM STATE EMPLOYEE TO PULL THE TRIGGER IF YOU WILL. LET'S EXAMINE THE RAMIFICATIONS OF SUCH DEEDS,ON BEHALF OF THE EMPLOYEE. HIS SUPERIOR TELLS HIM OR HER TO KILL SOMEONE WHO DID NOTHING TO THEM PERSONALLY,FOR THE SAKE OF THEIR JOB. ONE DAY THESE PEOPLE WILL BE JUDGED BY THE HIGHEST POWER. WHETHER YOU BELIEVE IN HEAVEN OR HELL,GOD OR KARMA. ONE THING IS FOR CERTAIN,WE ALL MUST ANSWER TO OUR CREATOR (WHETHER YOU BELIEVE IN HIM OR HER,OR NOT!!!). SO WHY SHOULD A PRISON DEPUTY BE BURDENED WITH SUCH SPIRITUAL MATTERS? DO THEY REALLY THINK THAT OUR CREATOR(CREATOR OF THE HEAVENS,EARTH AND UINVERSE) WILL ACCEPT " I WAS JUST DOING MY JOB" AS A DEFENSE? SILLY MORTALS,LOL. HOWEVER,I BELIEVE THAT THE FAMILY OF THE VICTIM SHOULD BE THE ONE TO ACTUALLY PULL THE TRIGGER. AFTER ALL ,IT WAS THEIR FAMILY THAT WAS HARMED. SO SAYING THIS,HOW MANY EXECUTIONS DO YOU THINK WOULD BE CARRIED OUT,IF THE VICTIM'S FAMILY WAS RESPONSIBLE WITH THIS ARDUOUS TASK? THE DEATH PENALTY WOULD SEIZE,WITHOUT POLITICAL UPROAR OR UNREST. IN MY HUMBLE OPINION,THIS IS THE ONLY FAIR RESOLUTION. SO TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK. I'M OPEN TO DEBATE. FEEL FREE TO LEAVE COMMENTS. THANKS,PEACE!!

HELLO MY DEARS FRIENDS. I'M SURE THAT YOU HAVE HEARD OF THE VERDICT OF NOT GUILTY IN REFERENCE TO TRAYVON MARTIN'S SENSELESS MURDER. IT HAS TAKEN ME THIS LONG TO WRITE A POST BECAUSE I WAS DEVASTATED BY THE VERDICT. I ACTUALLY CRIED WHEN THE VERDICT CAME BACK AS NOT GUILTY. FOLKS ,THIS IS SOUTHERN STYLE JUSTICE AT ITS PUREST!! I HAVE WATCHED BITS OF THE TRIAL AND IN MY OPINION A LOT OF MISTAKES WERE MADE. FIRSTLY, A WOMAN WAS ALLOWED TO TESTIFY HOW HER HOUSE WAS BROKEN INTO WHILE SHE WAS AT HOME WITH HER INFANT CHILD. I CAN UNDERSTAND HER FEAR ,BUT WHAT DID THAT HAVE TO DO WITH TRAYVON? SECONDLY,WHY WAS TRAYVON'S MOTHER AND BROTHER QUESTIONED ABOUT THEIR LEVEL OF EDUCATION AND NOT ZIMMERMAN'S MOTHER? A FEW DAYS AGO WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT IN BROOKLYN, I WITNESSED A PEACEFUL PROTEST. AND I MUST ADMIT ,THAT THIS BROUGHT ME SOME COMFORT. TO KNOW THAT OTHERS SHARE IN MY CONCERN . TO KNOW THAT WE, THE PEOPLE, STILL HAVE A VOICE. IN THIS CROWD, I SAW PEOPLE OF ALL RACES. THERE WERE JUST AS MANY WHITES AS PEOPLE OF COLOR. AND THIS IS WHAT BROUGHT ME THE MOST COMFORT. PERSONALLY, I THINK THAT WE ARE MISSING THE REAL REASON BEHIND THIS VERDICT. IF YOU KNOW A LITTLE ABOUT AMERICAN HISTORY THEN YOU WILL FIND THAT THIS IS NOTHING NEW. THIS IS A NEW MILLENNIUM WITCH HUNT. IN 17TH CENTURY NEW ENGLAND, 21 WHITE WOMEN WERE MURDERED BY THE HANDS OF THE LAW BECAUSE THEY WERE FOUND GUILTY OF BEING WITCHES. SOME OF THESE WOMEN WERE FOUND GUILTY FOR SIMPLY WEARING THE COLOR BLACK!! ( TRAYVON WAS MURDERED FOR WEARING A HOODIE !!). IN THE EARLY 19TH CENTURY IN NEW ORLEANS,11 SICILIAN IMMIGRANTS WERE LYNCHED AFTER 3 SICILIAN MEN WERE FOUND NOT GUILTY OF KILLING POLICE CHIEF DAVID HENNESSEY. ( IN THE EYES OF THE JURORS,TRAYVON WAS GUILTY BY ASSOCIATION. SOME BLACK YOUTHS BROKE INTO THIS LADY'S APARTMENT SO HE MUST BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE,BY BEING MURDERED.) A GRAND JURY LATER FOUND THE LYNCH MOB NOT GUILTY OF THE SLAUGHTER OF THESE POOR ITALIAN MEN. FOR MANY YEARS AFTER, ITALIANS WERE TAUNTED WITH "WHO KILLA DA CHIEF". EVERY ITALIAN WAS PERCEIVED TO BE IN THE MAFIA. ( PHOTOS ARE BEING SHOWN OF TRAYVON IN THE MEDIA OF WEARING A RED SHIRT. SUBLIMINALLY SUGGESTING THAT HE WAS IN A GANG). WHEN I FOUND OUT THAT GEORGE'S DAD WAS A FORMER ORANGE CO. FLORIDA JUDGE,IN THE BACK OF MY MIND,I KNEW THAT HE WOULD GET OFF EASY, BUT NOT THAT EASY!! GEORGE ZIMMERMAN HAS BEEN ARRESTED FOR DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, DUI, RESISTING ARREST OF AN OFFICER WITHOUT VIOLENCE AND RESISTING ARREST OF AN OFFICER WITH VIOLENCE!!! CAN YOU SEE THE WHOLE PICTURE HERE? YOU OR I ,WOULD HAVE BEEN THROWN UNDER THE PRISON FOR THE LATTER OFFENSE!!! A WOMAN IN THAT SAME STATE, WAS SENTENCED TO 25 YEARS IN PRISON, FOR FIRING A WARNING SHOT INTO THE WALL,IN AN ATTEMPT TO DETER HER HUSBAND FROM BEATING HER UP FURTHER. WE THE PEOPLE,MUST LET OUR VOICE BE HEARD!! THE PEOPLE, MEANING ALL PEOPLE. HAD ZIMMERMAN KILLED A HISPANIC, ASIAN, NATIVE AMERICAN OR WHITE PERSON ( WHO'S PARENTS DIDN'T HAVE EQUAL CLOUT ) , IT WOULD HAVE BEEN THE SAME OUTCOME. WE MUST FIGHT CLASSISM IN THIS LAND. DON'T LET THE MEDIA DIVIDE US!! THIS IS PROPAGANDA TO DISTRACT US!!! US,THE COMMON PEOPLE,THE EVERYDAY PEOPLE,THE BLUE COLLAR PEOPLE, MUST DEMAND FROM OUR FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, TO UPHOLD THE JUSTICE THAT THIS COUNTRY WAS FOUNDED ON. IF ONE MAN'S CIVIL RIGHTS ARE TAKEN , THEN EVERY MAN'S CIVIL RIGHTS ARE TAKEN. WE ARE ONE!! WE ARE ONE PEOPLE HERE IN AMERICA. I KNOW MY DEAR FRIENDS,THAT I HAVE WROTE A SOMEWHAT LONG ARTICLE TODAY. AND FOR ALL WHO READ THIS, I THANK YOU! BUT THIS CASE WEIGHS HEAVY ON MY HEART. I BELIEVE IN JUSTICE,BUT UNFORTUNATELY IN THIS WORLD SOMETIMES MONEY AND POLITICAL POWER OUT WEIGH ETHICS. NO DOUBT,GEORGE ZIMMERMAN HAS BROKEN THE LAW. HE HAS BROKEN MORAL CODE. HE HAS BROKEN MOST IMPORTANTLY UNIVERSAL LAW!! I PRAY THAT OUR FEDERAL GOVERNMENT CHARGES HIM AND THAT HE IS FOUND GUILTY IN THE COURT OF LAW. BUT AS WE KNOW ,SOMETIMES IN LIFE THINGS DON'T GO AS EXPECTED. BUT THIS I KNOW,GEORGE ZIMMERMAN MAY HAVE GOTTEN AWAY WITH MURDER. BUT HE WILL NOT ESCAPE THE JUSTICE OF GOD. THE JUSTICE OF THE UNIVERSE. HE WILL BE PUNISHED FOR ALL EYES TO SEE AND IT WON'T BE BY THE HANDS OF MAN. NO,NO!! PEOPLE LIKE GEORGE ZIMMERMAN DESTROY THEMSELVES!!
"THE TRUE MEANING OF JIHAD IS TO COMBAT OUR NEGATIVE EMOTIONS"- Dalai Lama
P.S HAPPY B-DAY!! WHAT THE DALAI LAMA IS SAYING HERE IS THAT THE REAL HOLY WAR IS INTERNAL,WITHIN US. WE MUST FIGHT THE DEVIL WITHIN THAT ALL OF US HAVE, AS BEINGS IN THIS 3RD DIMENSION. IT SEEMS THAT EVIL AND HATRED KNOW EVERY NATION,COLOR AND CREED!! LOVE IS THE ONLY ANSWER. WAKE UP!! I PRAY FOR ALL SOULS TAKEN AWAY BEFORE THEIR TIME DUE TO RELIGIOUS AND RACIAL VIOLENCE IS IT CONSIDERED TALKING WHEN SOMEONE TEXT YOU?
OH MY GOD! TODAY IS A DAY OF REFLECTION FOR ME. YOU MAY ASK " WHY TODAY MORE SO THAN ANY OTHER DAY"? WELL,ON THIS DAY,JULY 6, I GAVE BIRTH TO MY OLDEST CHILD. I KNOW YOU'RE THINKING, AND? LOL,AND TODAY MY DAUGHTER,OR SHALL I SAY MY LITTLE HUMMING BIRD TURNS 21!! TWENTY-ONE YEARS AGO,WHEN I WAS JUST FOURTEEN, I GAVE BIRTH TO HER. SHE MAKES ME SO PROUD!! MY BEING A TEENAGE MOTHER HAD THE ODDS STACKED AGAINST ME. AND MY OLDEST DAUGHTER,BEING THE CHILD OF A TEENAGE MOTHER HAD MANY MORE STACKED AGAINST HER!! BUT HERE SHE STANDS,READY TO TAKE FLIGHT INTO WOMANHOOD. SHE'S A GOOD GIRL WHO DOESN'T DRINK OR SMOKE. SHE DOESN'T SLEEP AROUND. SHE DOESN'T HAVE A BAD ATTITUDE. SHE IS SMART, RESPONSIBLE,CARING,LOVING AND GIVING WITH A PINCH OF MEANESS,LOL. SHE IS CURRENTLY WORKING TOWARDS HER GOAL OF BEING A REAL ESTATE AGENT. THROUGH IT ALL, I LOVE MY LITTLE GIRL( SHE WILL ALWAYS BE MY LITTLE GIRL,NO MATTER HOW OLD SHE GETS,LOL). SHE JOKES WITH ME AT TIMES ABOUT HOW IT WOULD BE FUNNY TO SEE HOW I ACT WHEN I GET OLD ( HONESTLY,I'M LIKE A 20 YR. OLD TRAPPED IN THIS OLE BODY,LOL). AND I TELL HER "WELL,WHEN I'M OLD ,YOU'RE GONNA BE OLD TOO",LOL. MY POINT HERE TODAY FRIENDS, IS THAT NO MATTER WHAT PEOPLE MAY SAY ABOUT YOU. NO MATTER HOW PEOPLE( FAMILY INCLUDED) MAY COUNT YOU OUT. NO MATTER HOW MANY STATISTICS SAY THAT YOU WILL NEVER AMOUNT TO ANYTHING. NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES IT TAKES BEFORE YOU GET IT(WHATEVER THE "IT" IS,LOL) YOU WILL!!! YOU CAN AND YOU WILL!! IF SUCCESS IS WHAT YOU WANT ,THEN YOU WILL HAVE IT. IF HAPPINESS IS WHAT YOU WANT THEN YOU WILL OBTAIN IT. DON'T LET FEAR OF THOSE THINGS HOLD YOU BACK. SO WHAT, YOU MAY NOT HAVE THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF EDUCATION. SO WHAT, YOU MAY BE FROM A DIFFERENT COUNTRY. SO WHAT ,YOU MAY BE A MINORITY. SO WHAT, YOU MAY BE OVERWEIGHT OR UNDERWEIGHT, GAY OR STRAIGHT, WHO CARES!! NEVER LOSE FAITH IN GOD!! NEVER LOSE FAITH IN YOURSELF!! YES,YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO PROVE, BECAUSE YOU ARE THE EXCEPTION TO THE RULE!! SO MY FRIENDS, MY MIGHTY PHOENICIS,RISE!! *Phoenicis-a person that becomes renewed or restored after suffering calamity or apparent annihilation. a person of peerless beauty or excellence HEY!!! I'VE BEEN BUSY LATELY,SO I HAVEN'T HAD MUCH TIME TO BLOG. BUT HEY THAT'S WHY I CALL THEM NOT SO DAILY REFLECTIONS!!!,LOL. SO ANYWAYS, I WANT TO TALK ABOUT HOW WE AS SOCIETY ACT AS SHEEPLE,ESPECIALLY PERTAINING TO TECHNOLOGY. THERE IS THIS COMMERCIAL ON T.V I SAW THE OTHER DAY. AND IN THIS COMMERCIAL,THERE IS THIS CHILD IN A WHEELCHAIR. AND HIS MOTHER IS IN ANOTHER SCENE EXPLAINING HOW HE GOT THIS WAY. SHE GOES ON TO TELL OF THE EVENTS THAT LEAD TO HER SON'S AWFUL YET PREVENTABLE PERMANENT PHYSICAL CONDITION. AND WHAT SHE SAID ALARMED ME- SOME LADY HIT HER SON WHILE TEXTING AND DRIVING!!!! THIS COMMERCIAL TOUCHED ME A GREAT DEAL. AFTER SEEING IT, I STARTED OBSERVING DRIVERS FOR MYSELF,AS I NEVER PERCEIVED THIS TO BE AN EPIDEMIC IF YOU WILL,BUT FROM WHAT I'M SEEING,IT IS!!! WHAT I DON'T UNDERSTAND IS HOW WE GOT THIS WAY. BEFORE CELL PHONES BECAME WIDELY AVAILABLE,WHAT DID WE DO? WE CALLED THE OTHER PARTY ON OUR HOUSE PHONE TO LET THEM KNOW WE WERE ON OUR WAY. BEFORE TEXTING, ANY BUSINESS WE HAD COULD WAIT!!! HOW COULD AN INVENTION THAT IS SUPPOSE TO IMPROVE THE SAFETY OF SOCEITY ACTUALLY BE DANGEROUS? HOW CAN A DEVICE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO LET YOUR FAMILY KNOW YOU ARE OKAY WHEN TRAVELING OR CALL THE POLICE AT A WHIM IF DANGER IS NEAR, BE THE CAUSE OF LIVES BEING TAKEN? LIVES BEING DESTROYED. HOW PEOPLE? WHY PEOPLE? IT SEEMS THAT WE,SOCEITY, ARE BECOMING SLAVES TO TECHNOLOGY !!! NO MATTER HOW ADVANCED WE GET,WE SHOULD ALWAYS USE BETTER JUDGEMENT. NO MATTER HOW MUCH TECHNOLOGY BECOMES AVAILABLE IN THE NEAR FUTURE,WE MUST ALWAYS USE OUR OWN MINDS-AND NOT BECOME AS SLEEPY SHEEP!! |
