We did the story this week about the Star-Telegram columnist who had a spat with his 11 year old son and left him at a McDonalds near their home.  Dave Lieber "The Watchdog"  was arrested and charged with two felonies.

The story generated a lot of response - most people falling in one of two categories:

1) Tough love: The dad should have told his son to walk home because kids today don't get enough discipline. Parents need to be firm.

2) String him up: He should have been arrested because it's dangerous to leave a child anywhere anytime.

Ultimately, the Tarrant County District Attorney's office declined to press charges.

What do you think?

 

 

America’s Troubled House

A botched police raid that terrorized an innocent family says a lot about the state of mind in the U.S.A. today.

Excerpts from a Newsweek article, written by a US presidents daughter, and well worth reading. It defines clearly what is at stake for America because of the militarization of civilian police forces into SWAT units. The full article can be found at:

http://www.newsweek.com/id/152412

“It sounds like something out of a police state in another part of the world.

Or perhaps, if you pay close attention to the plight of the poor, a poverty-riddled neighborhood somewhere in America where drugs and violence define everyday life.

A police raid on a house, doors smashed in, guns fired, lives lost … and then the admission that it was all an unfortunate mistake.

But this time it happened in the quaint, small town of Berwyn Heights, Md., and it happened to the mayor.”

Mayor “Calvo went upstairs to change clothes for an evening event.

His mother-in-law was in the kitchen when she saw masked men with guns running toward the house. Not surprisingly, she screamed as they kicked in the door.

They shot Payton who was standing beside her. They then turned their weapons on the other black lab, Chase, who was running away from them. They killed him, too.

Calvo, the mayor of Berwyn Heights since 2004, heard the shots just before he was grabbed and forced to walk down the stairs backward in his boxer shorts and socks into the waiting bloodbath. His mother-in-law was handcuffed on the bloody kitchen floor next to the body of one of their dogs.”

“Mayor Calvo came downstairs into a new time in America, in which no one is presumed innocent and guilt is only an assumption away.”

“While Chief High later expressed regret for the incident, he stopped short of offering an apology. And Sheriff Michael A. Jackson, whose department executed the raid, defended his department's actions.”

“These cases say something about our culture.

A country is not just defined by big sweeping events like wars and treaties and elections. It's defined by what goes on in neighborhoods, towns, homes.”

“ In the past eight years, we have seen our privacy invaded in the name of "homeland security."

We have all been living in a climate of "shoot (or accuse) first, ask questions later." And that attitude is contagious.”

“Imagine being Georgia Porter, one minute cooking dinner, the next handcuffed on the kitchen floor, inches from the bloodied body of a dog who was part of her family.

Imagine Cheye Calvo hearing the shots from upstairs, not knowing what was happening, and then finding himself handcuffed, helpless, forced to kneel in his underwear.

Imagine Trinity Tomsic dealing with her defiled home--not only did the police slaughter their dogs, they tracked blood all over the house in a search that yielded nothing.”

“You need to imagine all these things because, in a way, we all live in that house. It's called our country, and this is what's starting to happen here.”

The “official country Web site defines itself as "a county of livable communities." That's what we all wish for--a livable community, a home where we feel safe.”

“We want to feel that if the bad guys come, we can call the police and they will be the good guys.”

“We want to believe that if we're innocent, armed men with government badges won't handcuff us and shoot our pets and wave their weapons in our faces.

But more and more of us don't believe that.”

“The next president will not only have to deal with the economy, with global warming, with wars in other countries … he will have to deal with fear and rage at home.

A country does not only lose itself by what happens on other shores; it loses itself in living rooms, kitchens, backyards.

America will lose itself when we look around us and nothing feels like home anymore.”

You can never go back home, it seems.

THINK ABOUT IT

Thanks to  luvmykid I am inspired to write the following blog.

At the time of Hurricane Katrina, I was working in downtown Dallas in the Paramount building and it is not that far from Reunion Arena. 

About two days after the hurricane hit, the evacuees arrived and at first they were happy that someone was willing to help them. After about 3 or 4 days, the complaining began.

I started seeing people wandering around the west end looking for hand outs of just cash and cash only. I saw so many citizens of Dallas try to give the people wandering around food or buy them something from the Walgreens in downtown but about 99% refused. They wanted the cash for what I don't know.

By the end of the week, people at my work place were complaining about how hard it was to get on the DART because the "victims" were riding around all day and taking up all the seats and doing nothing but riding.

However there was one and only one couple that I met that never complained.

I was talking to a coworker about  how sick I am about the "victims" complaining and she quickly pointed that the woman in the cubical across from me was from New Orleans (one of the couple I mentioned earlier) and I need to keep my voice down.  Then the lady in the cubicle spoke up and said "I was sick of them in New Orleans and I am sick of them here. Yes, I had to live in a hotel for a week but in that week, I got a job, a new place to live, and new clothes. All without the help of the government"  She never complained as far as I know because I saw and talked to her and her husband everyday and without fail they always had smiles on their faces and were happy to be anywhere but New Orleans.
 
I truely felt bad for them because they lost everything but I felt privilaged to know them. They took everything in stride and did what they had to do to get back on their feet. I only saw them unhappy once and that was when they got an email from the government about some realtime photos of their home and it was gone. They both sat and cried for a minute but then a smile quickly came over their faces after the yound man said "Its ok honey, were are in Texas now and we will rebuild here."

I never knew what happened to them after I quit about a month later but I during that time I knew them, they were not "victims" they were SURVIVORS.

I just hope in New Orleans is evacuated again, we have more people like that young couple come to Texas and a lot less of the complainers. Sadly, I think the people that will work to rebuild have already left New Orleans never to return and all we will get if and when New Orleans is evacuated again will be the complainers.  Hopefully, these people will heed this time the savage advice of "Beggers cannot be choosers!"

I don't understand why no charges were filed in this case. 

These roads are so dangerous to break down on. 

It's sad.  A whole family gone.

SUV Kills 2 Adults, 2 Toddlers . WEST, Texas -- -- A man, woman and two children are dead after they were hit and killed by a sport-utility vehicle on an Interstate 35 frontage road in Central Texas. The Texas Department of Public Safety says the accident happened just before 10 p.m. Thursday about 15 miles north of Waco near the town of West. They said the man and woman were walking with a baby girl and a boy, age about 2, after their car apparently stalled on the two-way frontage road. DPS Cpl. Charlie Morgan said a sport-utility vehicle apparently crested a rise and slammed into the family from behind, hurling their bodies about 100 feet. The DPS identifies the dead as Brandee Thorpe, 20; Austin Fontenot, 2; and Kinzee Fontenot, 1; all of Hillsboro; and Gregory Howell, 25, of Robinson. Their relationships are unclear. The driver of the SUV was interviewed, but no charges are filed.

Another dumb woman caught offering her children for money.

This stupid texas woman was turned over by the man she made arrangements with because he got busted and let the "biatch" out of the bag.

AAAAARRRRGGGHHHHH!!!!  Is all I can say about the stupidity in these womens heads!!

Texas Mom Charged with Offering Children for Sex  

Stephanie Hays

HOUSTON --  --  A suburban Houston mother accused of offering to let a Missouri man have sex with three young children has been arrested on child pornography charges.

Stephanie Hays, 33, is charged with one count of possession of child pornography and one count of performance of a child. Bail on each charge was set at $50,000.

The Katy woman is scheduled to be arraigned Friday. Jail records did not show an attorney listed for her and there was no answer at a phone number listed for her address.

She was arrested Wednesday after federal agents in Independence, Mo., learned she had made arrangements over the Internet for Michael Stratton to visit Texas and engage in sex acts with the children, investigators said.

 Authorities identified the children as the woman's 11-year-old son, 5-year-old nephew and 2-year-old niece.
 
Stratton, who had been arrested in a separate investigation in Missouri, gave information about the woman to federal agents. Investigators searched Stratton's computer and recovered copies of his Internet chats with the woman.

The information led investigators from the Houston Metro Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force to obtain a search warrant that was served on the woman's home Aug. 22, said Harris County Assistant District Attorney Donna Hawkins.

During the search of the home, investigators found several computers containing numerous images of children under 18 engaging in sexual intercourse, Hawkins said.

Task force commander Matthew Gray wrote in an affidavit that he used Stratton's Yahoo account to chat with the woman on Aug. 18, and asked her to send him child pornography, the Houston Chronicle reported in its online editions Thursday.

 "The suspect admitted . . . that she had discussed the sexual acts that Michael Stratton would commit against (the children) and making the arrangements for Michael Stratton to meet her the week of Aug. 20, 2008," Gray wrote in his affidavit.

A spokeswoman for Texas Child Protective Services said the agency has not taken custody of any children involved. CPS caseworkers have made sure the children are safe, while the agency conducts an investigation, said Gwen Carter.

This is the second case in less than a week involving a Texas parent charged with offering their child for sex.

Three years later, we, our own cities, are still trying to recooperate from all the devastation that was brought to us because of Hurricane Katrina.

Now, I am sitting here talking to my sister and asking, what is going to happen this time with Gustav?

I have been keeping up with this storm/hurricane myself because I know that we will go through the same thing again as we did with Katrin victims.

I remember when I volunteered to feed the "victims" that were staying at a large hotel in Arlington.  We worked hard, the church, to get good meals together for these people.  But, all we got was complaints.  That they did not like the food because it was not what they ate. 

Well, I took it upon myself to fix a whole meal of things they said they liked.  That evening, when I went to serve it, I only had 4 families come down and eat.  The rest, were coming in on buses with fast food and bags and bags from the mall.

Seems, that they had started to receive their "victim money" and were enjoying spending it where they shouldn't have been.

I remember hearing all the awful stories from many people all around Dallas County about how these people acted and what they did with the money or assistance that was given to them.  I remember the huge fight that the New Orleans kids caused in the Grand Prairie high school against the  kids from here.

Is this what we have to look forward to again?

I am praying that we are not.

Houston has closed the Astrodome.  It will not be used to house anyone.

The Reunion Arena is out of the question.

And, the worst is...that alot of these people from New Orleans are already being given warnings that they might have to evacuate but, alot are still sitting and "waiting it out".

Did you not learn your lesson the first time?

God help us.  We don't need this again.  We are still trying to recooperate ourselves.

She "MAY" face UP TO 20 years in prison.

IF CONVICTED!

First, let's see.....she is here illegally.

Second, she probably had that baby while on government assistance.

Third, she injures the baby

Forth, she takes a WHOLE FREAKIN DAY to take this baby to the hospital.  Letting it suffer in this horrible pain for 24 hours!

And, SHE MIGHT get UP TO 20 years?????????

These laws are so effed up!!!  Something more needs to be done about all of these freakin women killing and harming these babies.

Mom Charged with Scalding Baby 8-month-Old Scalded with Boiling Water .

BROWNSVILLE, Texas --  --  A 32-year-old mother is charged with injury to a child after allegedly scalding her 8-month-old infant with boiling water.

Cpl. Alonso Najera said Friday morning that Margarita Cuellar Alvarado is in the Cameron County Jail on a $75,000 bond.

The Brownsville Herald reports the baby is being treated at the Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio.

Brownsville Police spokesman Jimmy Manrrique said Alvarado, an undocumented immigrant, was arrested on Wednesday after she took her baby to the hospital.

He said authorities determined the child's injuries did not match Alvarado's story. Police believe she waited more than a day before taking the wounded infant for medical attention.

If she is convicted of the second-degree felony, Alvarado may face up to 20 years in prison.

Nobody has anything interesting to say on here anymore. Texans are boring.

It's always the same carp about how much they hate Obama, how much they hate liberals, or how much they hate illegal immigrants.

It's always the same moronic pictures satirising Obama and fellow Democrats.

It's always the same platitudinal, sensationalised bull BLEEP story.

Can a brother get some reality, please?

You pay for something at Walmart by check these days and they convert it into an electronics fund transfer.

You sign a register printout, they hand you your check back along with a receipt for the transaction.

This sheet contains a disclaimer that they can deduct a returned check fee etc if your check bounces which is all okay.

For some reason today I decided to read this sheet of paper and I found one phrase that scares me.

"You also authorize us to process credit adjustments, if applicable."

The only phone number on this receipt is 888-905-3388 which turns out to be Tele-Check, which handles transactions for Walmart.

I asked the operator what this statement meant and he has no idea.

No one in the office of the Neighborhood Market had any idea what it meant either.

So -- do any of you know just what kind of credit adjustments I am authorizing Tele-Check or Walmart to make?

And what determines if they are applicable?

So, by now everyone has heard that the ancient Maya believe the Earth will end on December 21, 2012. They kept expert track of time and astrological bodies and events. Their calendar ends on that day.

Several other ancient cultures reference a similar event.  Strange, huh?

As it turns out, modern scientists claim an alignment of our solar system will place the Earth at it's center. Astronomers say this occurrance may make our poles flip position which could be catastrophic.

They say it will happen on 12 - 21 - 2012.

(Cue the Twilight Zone theme)

P.S. I enjoy his kind of stuff!

All I can say about this story is, that I cried.  While reading it.  And after.

It is sickening what this man did.

He deserves worse than the death penalty.

Just look at the smirk on his face in the picture.  This is what he looked like when he received his sentence.

Nothing but evil on that face.

But, we all know that due to his nature of being a pedophile, he will not be put in with the general public in prison to protect him from being murdered while in there.

Pedophile Sentenced to Death for Murdering 9-Year-Old Idaho Boy

A longtime sex offender was sentenced to death Wednesday for the 2005 kidnapping, torture and murder of a 9-year-old northern Idaho boy after federal jurors who watched video of some of the brutality deliberated just three hours.

The jurors' recommendation was binding on U.S. District Judge Edward Lodge, who thanked them, dismissed them and then sentenced Joseph Edward Duncan III.

Relatives of the victim, Dylan Groene, remained somber as the jury's decision was announced. Duncan murdered Dylan's mother, older brother and his mother's fiance to kidnap him and his younger sister, who was sexually abused along with her brother but survived.

"The jury speaks the mind of the community," U.S. Attorney Tom Moss said. "By the verdict today, they have given voice to the victims."

Duncan showed no reaction other than smiling as the verdict was passed to the judge.

He took Dylan and the boy's then-8-year-old sister, Shasta, to a remote western Montana campsite where he raped, tortured and threatened them before shooting Dylan in the head and burning his body. Jurors viewed horrifying video Duncan made of him sexually abusing, torturing and hanging Dylan until the boy lost consciousness.

"This defendant is dangerous. He is a predator who takes pride in his work," prosecutor Traci Whelan said. "He earned this day. His actions ... call out for the death penalty."

Duncan acted as his own attorney but had offered no response to prosecutors' closing argument.

"I have no argument," he told the court.

With an eye toward kidnapping the two children, Duncan stalked their family. In 2005 he entered their Coeur d'Alene-area home and used a hammer to fatally bludgeon their 13-year-old brother, Slade Groene, his mother, Brenda Groene, and her fiance, Mark McKenzie.

Duncan was arrested and Shasta rescued weeks after the kidnappings when a waitress at a Denny's in Coeur d'Alene called police after recognizing the two as they ate.

Duncan pleaded guilty in December to 10 federal charges involving the kidnappings and the murder of Dylan. He pleaded guilty to the other three murders in state court, where he also could be sentenced to death.

"I am so glad this is over. Justice has been served," said Darlene Torres, Brenda Groene's mother. "It's been very painful."

She said that when she saw Duncan in court, "I seen nothing but an evil, empty, coldhearted shell."

In closing arguments, Whelan reminded the jury of Duncan's lifelong "pattern of violence," including a conviction for raping a boy at gunpoint in 1980. Duncan has told investigators he killed two half-sisters from Seattle in 1996, and he is charged with killing a young boy in Riverside County, California, in 1997.

Duncan may now be brought to Riverside County to stand trial in the death of Anthony Martinez.

Whelan told the jury that Duncan would pose a risk even to prison guards and fellow inmates.

"This defendant uses the time that he has to think out these plans and he is dangerous," she said. "He is adaptable and he is dangerous."

The heinousness of the evidence in Dylan's murder made it particularly difficult for the jurors to remain impartial as they deliberate, said Art Patterson, a jury consultant and senior vice president of the trial consulting firm DecisionQuest.

"Generally, for human beings, it's pretty hard to maintain impartiality when confronted with such horror," Patterson said.

"How could any juror not want to see this person removed from our list of living human beings? How could you live with yourself as a juror if there's any chance this human being could escape from jail and do something like this again?" Patterson said.

 

After a year of not being able to access my account, Im In LOL  Hope everyone has been good. I have had a year of saddness I lost 2 brothers and a sister , It has really been a tough year. God Bless you Love you Zona

Well, I found out some news yesterday after work, that just shocked the crappers out of me!

I live inbetween the White Rock Shopping Center (Casa Linda) and Lockwood Shopping Center.  Well, we usually know when something is going on because you hear the police helicopter flying over us or hear all the sirens when there is a chase or accident. 

Well, we went to eat at a small restraunt yesterday after work and the owner was telling us that the Carnival on Jupiter and Garland Rd. had been robbed at around 10:00 a.m..  Not only that, right before these hoodlum/theives robbed Carnival, they robbed the Dollar General in the Lockwood Shopping Center across the street.

To his knowledge, they did not and have not caught the robber/theives/hoods.

My thing is, that there have been so many robbies...big ones like these, in our neighborhoods and we only hear of them by word of mouth.  We never hear about them on the news or paper.

I, myself, was robbed/beaten, by a couple of men a few years ago while going to my car from the Dollar Store where they opened up the mexican bazaar on Garland and Centerville.  But, the police said, unless I could identify the persons, there was nothing they could do about it.  I didn't even get a police report number.  Even with the busted mouth, black-eye and bump on the head that they gave me.  Even though, my jewelry was taken.

The man who killed and burned his girlfriend in a car, I believe last year, was found living under the White Rock Bridge at the lake.  Now how close to home is that for some of us?

How are we to know what areas are safe or not if we don't know what is going on and that it is right in our neighborhoods?

No crime watch, neighbors that watchout for eachother, etc...

What are we coming to?

Once again, the State Fair of Texas is finding new things to fry.

On Labor Day, State Fair vendors will compete in Dallas to become this year’s equivalent of fried cookie dough or fried latte — the two concoctions that got the lion’s share of attention last year from The Tonight Show and other media outlets.

Among the heart-stoppers on the menu at this year’s Big Tex Choice Awards are chicken fried bacon, Texas fried jelly bellys, deep-fried s’mores, fried banana split and chocolate-covered strawberry waffle balls.

"As you know, everything is better with bacon on it and Texans like everything chicken fried," said Glen Kusak of Yoakum Packing Company in Yoakum. "What’s better than chicken fried and bacon? That was the thought process behind it."

I got nuthin' on this....shaking head? why mess with bacon? Anything else is ok but not bacon

well I do not get the math they do or rather how they are teaching math, I help but I do not do it for them...Guess that makes me poor, see below

 

If children in the South learn that cheating is wrong, they probably won’t learn it from their parents.

Web site Ask.com released results today of a nationwide survey of 778 parents with children under 18. The survey showed that more than 40 percent of parents admitted to doing their children’s homework. In the South, that percentage jumped to almost 90 percent.

Parents who do their children’s homework may think they are just helping them get a better grade on an assignment, but they are putting their children at a disadvantage for life, said Jill Fox, associate professor of early childhood education at the University of Texas at Arlington.

"One of the reasons we assign homework is to build attitudes of responsibility," Fox said. "A parent who does their child’s homework is not supporting their growth as an individual, as a human being."

The survey is being used to promote the Web site’s new study help feature, Askkids.com.

The survey, conducted by Kelton Research, provided insight into differences in:

Gender. Dad is a softer touch than Mom. Mom handles English. Dad handles math. Both help with art projects.

Age. Parents 65 and older are more likely to help their children with history and social studies homework. Young parents favor English. Math is for the middle-aged.

Affluence. Rich parents help more with homework than poor parents.

Region. Parents in the South and West are more likely to help with math than those in other parts of the nation.

Donna Layer, coordinator for the Birdville school district’s guidance and counseling department, said she can’t estimate how many parents locally do their children’s homework. But Layer said that the concern comes up occasionally.

Truther midget Alex Jones follows Michelle Malkin around the DNC protests screaming in her face until she finally leaves.  Gotta love the guy in the background repeatedly screaming "Kill Michelle Malkin!"  Seriously?  When's the last time you heard people chanting for the death of a liberal?  Michelle Malkin, a young mother of two, has received numerous death threats for speaking her mind.  I noticed that they had to remove the Blogging The Qur'an series by Robert Spencer from HotAir.com - I wonder if the numerous death threats had anything to do with it?
