Sex Crime Lies

I woke up this morning and got myself a beer.  I turned on some music to start my day.  I was greeted with the headline:

Megan Williams to recant Logan County sex-torture testimony

My first thoughts were, “People were convicted of this ‘crime,’ now she says she made it up.”

It is a sensational story.  Accusations of hate crimes and torture. Media stories citing Tawana Brawley; high profile community ‘leaders’ demanding justice; groups marching for “justice“: and, race tensions exaserbated.

All this, maybe for nothing.

Back in 2007, I commented that I didn’t think what happend to Ms. Williams added up to a “hate crime.” She apparently knew her assailants and seemed to have an on/off/repeat relationship with them.   I also touched on the larger issue of domestic vilolence.

Now it appears that much of the outrage may have been in vain.  Ms. Williams is recanting her story.  The prosecutor claims the convictions were legit based on evidence which did not include her testimony.

“Each of them made statements incriminating themselves and others. When you sat back and looked at it in its entirety, there was a pretty clear picture of what had taken place,” Abraham said.

But, were they really trying to tell the truth, or find a way to get the least amount of punishment out of the mob mentality.  Let’s face it, when someone (primarily a male) is accused of a sex crime his is immediately considered guilty by society.  Forget what the Constituion says, in practice, an accused sex offender must prove he didn’t do it.

If that person is aquitted of the accusations (found not guilty in other words) he will forever be followed by “Yes, but did you know he was on trial for a sex crime?” “I wouldn’t let my child around him. He was charged with molesting someone.” (Leaving out the crucial part about not being convicted.)

Then there is the ever popular “He got lucky. His lawyer found a loop-hole.”

Now, in the Williams case, there was obviously something wrong in the relationship. I don’t doubt there was some physical fight, and perhaps emotional abuse. But this entire region was near riot because of what may be a fabrication. People donated money to a family to help with medical and legal fees based on a lie.

Will Malik Shabazz and his Black Lawyers for Justice group stand up and appologize for the incendiary remarks they made while in the area? I doubt it.  Ms. Williams exaggerations will be cloaked in a Dan Rather like paraphrase “hate crimes are real even if this case isn’t.”

I”m not saying Ms. Williams wasn’t abused.  There is definately something wrong with this picture. I am trying to show that it is easy to sling sex crime accusations and make them stick, even if there is little to no evidence anything happened. People’s lives, and those of family and friends, are destroyed by false accusations of sex crimes.

If This Offends You …

Illegals are offended. So?

Sorry folks, but if this is offensive to you then kiss my fat *ss.  It’s a damn Halloween costume.  And it’s funny as h*ll. Halloween is not a holiday of love for all and world peace.  It’s all about plastic poop and vampire blood.  Little girls dressed as princesses, little boys dressed as Trasformers, teenagers dressed like idiots, and grown men and women dressing to piss off a segment of the population.

Why is it ok to have costumes of Sarah Palin or Monica Lewinsky but not an Area 51 prisoner?

Get a life people.  If this offends you go the h*ll back to your home country.

Clothes Make Justice

Um, so, excuse me.  But didn’t the Democratic Party pusher raise 75 kinds of hell over Sarah Palin’s wardrobe and that the “Republican Party” bought them for her? 

Now, explain to me how the following is acceptible?

Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor’s nomination process was so controlled that the White House even approved her clothes, she told Yalies when she appeared at her 30th Yale Law School reunion on Saturday.

And this isn’t a 4-year term as a political hack.  This is a LIFE APPOINTMENT TO THE U.S. SUPREME COURT OF APPEALS!

My next question is .. why didn’t they do something with her hair! OMG!

“Death panels” — No way.

One goal of Florida’s plan is to “reduce or eliminate” the legal liability of health care workers who, in good faith, deny or withdraw treatment from some patients in an emergency. The plan includes sample executive orders that the governor could issue to shield workers and authorize hospitals to implement the guidelines.
………………..

That goal needs to be balanced with an effort to distribute scarce resources in the least discriminatory way, said professor Ken Goodman, who directs the University of Miami bioethics program and the Florida Bioethics Network.

…………………

Goodman, the University of Miami ethicist, said open conversation about the complex, value-laden decisions that will determine who receives treatment in the most extreme circumstances is crucial, and that hospital, state or federal guidelines should always be subject to revision.

“This should be an ongoing process that includes new evidence as it becomes available and that includes, in an open society, the participation of citizens,” he said.

Don’t take my word for it.  Read about it here.

Death panels … why that’s a scare tactic.  They just say that because they are “racists” and don’t like having a black President. No one is going to stop you from getting the care you need.  No one is going to get between you and your doctor.  Just tell grandma to take the pain pill. [How much more of that shit are you gonna buy?]

Obama said. … “Maybe you’re better off not having the surgery, but taking painkillers.“

Limbaugh …

I’m not an NFL junky.  I like football, but I don’t worship at the altar of Jonny Unitas. 

Jackson and Sharpton have no business getting involved in a business deal of the NFL.  If the players don’t want it, that’s their call.  Blackmailing the NFL is unacceptable. Not only did they just want to pay Limbaugh back for not licking their collective asses, they needed to get their names back in the news.  They were becoming irrelevant.  Ok, they have been for a long time, they just won’t accept it.

Now — read this:

And now a word from an NFL owner:

“And the game done chose me to bring pain to nigg*s and p*ssy holes, they one in the same.” - I’m Real, co-written by Jennifer Lopez, minority owner of the Miami Dolphins.

There’s more.  Read this.

The hypocrisy is amazing.

Cold vs Flu – How Do You Do!

Is it the cold or is it the flu?  Here are a list of symptoms:

Symptoms	Cold	Flu
Fever	Sometimes, usually mild	Usual; high (100-102 F; occasionally higher, especially in young children); lasts 3 to 4 days
Headache	Occasionally	Common
General Aches, Pains	Slight	Usual; often severe
Fatigue, Weakness	Sometimes	Usual; can last 2 to 3 weeks
Extreme Exhaustion	Never	Usual; at the beginning of the illness
Stuffy Nose	Common	Sometimes
Sneezing	Usual	Sometimes
Sore Throat	Common	Sometimes
Chest Discomfort, Cough	Mild to moderate; hacking cough	Common; can become severe
Complications	Sinus congestion; middle ear infection	Sinusitis, bronchitis, ear infection, pneumonia; can be life-threatening

 

So, now I have to decide if I’m just struggling with a cold, or if I’m having some minor asthmatic issues that will mutate into pneumonia because I didn’t take it seriously. Sound like a hypocondriac, maybe.

When I wa a kid, I mean  little, I used to be afflicted with episodes of pneumonia. I’d have fever of over 102*, mom would rush me to the ER, and I would be packed in ice or washed down with rubbing alcohol.  It was  awful.  I don’t really remember much other than the ER visits.  I don’t remember the illness leading up to it, or coming home. But hey, I was maybe 4 or 5.  When I got older I remember being sick with strep-throat frequently.  I remember my dad raising hell with the doctor and insisting my tonsils be removed. Keep in mind, I wasn’t sick just once, I was sick two or more times a year, with hospitalization. They couldn’t rid me of the strep bacteria.

In the 5th grade I finally managed  to be well long enough to have the surgery. I was supposed to take some medication because I was anemic or my blood count was low, something.  It was awful.  I remember running from my mom.  My aunt tried to convince me to take the medicine by tasting it … she almost puked.

Two weeks before, I broke my wrist.  It was miserable.  The docs couldn’t get the bleeding to stop, they had to cauterize my throat (when that wasn’t usual practice), I vomitted blood.  They also removed my adenoids. This lead to big-time ear aches as my inner ears adjusted to the pressure differences (so I recall being told).  I was in the hospital longer that the standard for the day (I think 3 days was normal, I was in for a week.) When I came home I was on Tylenol-3 for the pain.

I missed Trick-or-Treet that year.

Anyway – I’ve been sneezing for a couple days and I have the tell-tale symptoms of a stupid cold.  Yesterday my nose was stuffy on one side, today both are gunky.  I can feel the old familiar feeling I experience in my chest as a cold comes on.  My eyes are burning … fun days are ahead.

Does She? Or, Doesn’t She?

So, I’m having breakfast with a friend. (No, not like that.) It’s a left-wing blogger friend who will not be identified, unless he outs himself.  Anyway, it was a good time.

Toward the end of our conversation he says, “I like your new hair style.  The color is nice, also.”

<crickets>

Ok, so, my hair is something I struggle with, that’s no secret.  The ’style’ is simply outgrown and uncut.  I’ve been trying to let it grow to fit in with the current fashion. I don’t generally like wearing my hair long and straight because I have a very full (read fat) face.  I think long, straight hair emphasizes just how fat my face is.  I prefer to have a perm in my hair and for it to be just above my shoulders. But, that’s very out-dated.  Generally, I try to keep close to current fashion, but I’m not a slave to it.

Now, the color.  I am often asked about my hair color. Peroxide blondes are everywhere and people assume if you are blonde it’s not by nature.  Well, my hair is the same color now as when it grew from my head.  I do not color treat my hair, and never have.  Actually, it is getting darker the older I get, except the white ones I notice from time to time.

Oh, I’m not upset with my breakfast buddy. His comment just gave me something to write about.  In fact, I’ve had 3 comments in the past 2 weeks about my hair, each with a reference to color.  Sometimes I get very defensive about my hair.  Unlike the blondes that most jokes are created about, I haven’t destroyed my brain with the absorption of peroxide or bleach. And, have you ever noticed that most of the idiot blondes either have dark roots because they can’t keep up with the bleach or they have orange roots because of too many chemical treatments.

I doubt you will ever hear me say “blonde moment” regarding anything.  I may do something dumb, but it’s not because I’m a dumb blonde.  And, while there may be a smattering of male oriented blonde jokes, most of the derogatory blonde jokes or comments are rooted in the stereotype of a female too stupid to be in the workplace so she should stay home.  We don’t excuse similar jokes targeted toward blacks, Jews, or any other group. Oh, except conservatives.

Holy Cats!

This poor man.  Not only has he endured years of “cat calls” from masculinity threatened toms, now he is in the public eye for the second most embarrasing type of cancer a guy can have.  I will light a candle to Bastet in his name.

THE original Kiss drummer Peter Criss is finally opening up about his secret battle with breast cancer that began last year.

 

I used to dream of meeting this alley cat in the dark!

Michael v/s Muslims

I’ve listened to Michael Savage from time to time.  Mostly when I was taking night classes at State.  The signal from WVTS is too weak for me to pick up in my home at night, so I don’t hear him much anymore.

I like Savage, even though he’s a little too angry for my daily consumption. He takes on both ’sides of the aisle’ in his discussions. I’ve heard him rant against groups like CAIR and I know they placed him on their enemies list.  So, I wasn’t unhappy to read this story.

“Now we have proof – from the secret documents that this investigative team has uncovered, coupled with the ones recently declassified by the FBI – that [radical Islamists] agents living among us have a plan in place, and they are successfully carrying out that subversive plan,” Myrick said.

I’m not much on conspiracy stories, but this is something I belive is going on. You don’t go to all the trouble and expense to get bastards trained to fly (not land) airplanes in the United States, take down two very significant buildings, slaughter over 3,000 people and nearly destroy a country’s economy, then walk away and call it a day.  And a group like CAIR doesn’t piss away $160,000 just to keep busy.

In the interest of ‘complete disclosure’, I don’t believe I personally know anyone who is a Muslim. So, I don’t have a ready source of knowledge of the religion.  I do have an idea of history. I recall what the Muslims did to the ‘infidels’ during the Crusades.  Of course, I know what the ‘Christians’ did as well.  I can read, believe it or not. And I have read how countries who operate under sharia law behave toward women and ‘infidels’.

I have a hard time believing these people just want to be friends.

Let the children sing …

I find it very disturbing that so many videos are popping up showing ORGANIZED groups of school kids singing hymns to Obama or pushing his agendas.  While some will use the term ‘indoctrination’, I can not help but stop to think what the major news corporations would be saying if children were singing to W.

After the slaughter of thousands on September 11, 2001, then President Bush took courageous steps to protect this country and its citizenry.  Where were the videos of the children singing:

Pres-i-dent W Bush, M-m-m

He da man, I know he can, Protect us from de Tal-i-ban

Pres-i-dent W Bush, M-m-m

And don’t pretend you would not raise 10 kinds of hell about it. 

This type of behavior might well be called ‘indoctrination’ or ‘brainwashing.’ Children who do not posses the ability to make an informed decision regarding the actions of their President are used as trick-ponies to subtly convince their audience (and themselves) that the actions of this one, larger-than-life President, are the best that have ever been.  He is so great, so powerful, so wonderful! If you disagree you should be ashamed and driven from our sight. 

It is well known that the way to change society is to change the children.  You see it in advertising everyday.  Anti-smoking and drinking campaigns lobby for laws restricting big corporations from “targeting advertisements to children.”

It is no different here.  But, where is the outrage? Do I have your oathe that when the next President from a different party is elected, I can walk down to the school and video the children singing praises to him and the free market?

The next Repub Pres., M-M-M

That’s the one, we know who can

Make sheets of glass, from all Iran

The next Repub Pres., M-M-M
