St. Louis.....I know that my post disturbed you, but I misjudged your deep involvement in radical society...Somehow I believed that there was hope from your left wing indoctrination, but I have come to the conclusion it is beyond repair...
Your resorting to the typical use of the word BIGOTRY as a retort is typical of the left when all reasonable response fails...
Any review of records and letters of commendation from my over 40 years of unblemished Police Service will quickly put to rest your futile attempts...
If I did not understand your anger of trying to defend your frustrations and positions I would feel insulted....
Oldtimer,
Political arguments are difficult to win and rarely provide a solution.
As long as there are more "have nots" then "haves" liberalism wins. Think of it this way, it's easier to receive things from the free shit army then to work hard and earn them. Many prefer equal terms and circumstances. I know this country was founded on capitalism, yet that seems to have been forgotten.
Personally, I'm fiscally conservative and socially moderate. I believe in job training and educational credits for those less fortunate. However, just giving money arbitrarily to those on welfare is wrong.
I enjoy your wisdom and implore you to continue to "fighting the good fight", but I'm afraid this forum appears to be filled with more left leaning then conservative types.
JAVA.....I fully understand the odds...Many years ago I attended a lecture on Politics...The speaker said one thing that at that time enraged me, and I challenged him...It was this statement...''The freedom of the vote will eventually destroy our country''...
I now understand what he meant....
When Government gains control by HANDOUTS and programs of assistance and it becomes easier to live by them, then being gainfully employed, the vote will be controlled by that forever growing percentage...Thus the rapid growth of corruption and it acceptance by politicians who also will have little to lose as long as the checks keep coming...
I will probably be roasted by those that benefit and mark me as a non lover of the down trodden...That is the weapon used to discredit those who only want a return to self respect and the great country it once was...
Aside to St. LOUIS....... This the second time you displayed that picture of a reported corrupt Ferguson Judge...I Laughed in amusement at your juvenile attempt...What did you prove.....Corruption thrives...It has become the lifeblood of the vast majority of politicians what ever side of the spectrum they might represent.....You no doubt will cast your vote for Hilary if she runs...Your hypocrisy will then be fully exposed...
Stay safe...Look for a Police Officer to walk you home....

Whose corruption was fed by an equally corrupt Police Dept - which corruption is not limited to Ferguson. You do remember Judge Murphy?
And remember on that walk home "everything you say can and will be used ......."

I know many people who graduate from college and have to work in the service industry prior to earning a job in their field of study. Now it's up to Hanna to go out there, interview, utilize any contacts she has and persevere.

Survival of the fittest.
Except for banks, oil companies, and few other takers and dodgers. "I know this country was founded on capitalism, yet that seems to have been forgotten." So, what happened to capitalism??

Are we supposed to feel sorry for Hanna Newberg?
She does not feel sorry for herself - "She's not angry about where she's landed; she says sometimes she even likes her job,...": so I don't, and we know where you stand - "Survival of the fittest."
"I know this country was founded on capitalism, yet that seems to have been forgotten." So, what happened to capitalism??
This is the third time I have asked you a question, and you have yet to answer any of them.

It's not my fault that the government bailed out the likes of Citigroup and Bank of America back in 2008, while Lehman and Bear Stearns perished.
The government felt it was necessary to call upon JP Morgan to provide the resources necessary to avoid a banking collapse, thus preventing the entire financial system from imploding. I didn't sign up for that!
The article attached is silly. Hanna studied for and received a post graduate degree to be a Librarian. For that reason alone, she should have known that this field a). is not lucrative and b). with books becoming primarily digital, she would have a difficult time forging out a career in this field. Again, she should be responsible for her own choices.
I'm not here to get into a political argument with you. If you feel passionate about helping out Hannah, I implore you to locate her and send her some dough or something like that. Heck, I don't know.

Nor I with you. You seem like a good guy to kick back with a few frosty brews.
But you waded into this diatribe and I wanted to get a sense of where you are at.
As for the article - in the interest of full disclosure, I may not be the sharpest tool in the shed - to me the piece on Hanna was merely anecdotal. "I know this country was founded on capitalism, yet that seems to have been forgotten." I thought the article was an assessment of the results of the malaise you describe in the above quote.
The number of Police Officers murdered this year has reached into the 50s...At the fast growing rate it will reach record numbers...There is a segment of society that fosters and encourage this type behavior...It is their lifeblood...It is a fast growing cancer that has the strong possibility of ending in revolution.......
I pray for the emergence of a strong leader who can rise above self interest and once again return United States to its place as a world leader...
To those who say it can't happen here, need only a strong study of History.......The seeds have been sown and fertilized for the past 60 or so years in our schools and universities...The fuse has been set and now needs only the spark....The easily led and inflamed will be the fuel... My time is short, but I will combat to the end those who wish to destroy the greatest country ever...
