Oh NO the world is definitely coming to the end. Prepare yourself ... next California is going to fall into the Ocean and a Tsunami is going wipe out New York
People across the UK reported feeling the tremor just before 0100 GMT. The epicentre of the 5.2 magnitude quake was near Market Rasen in Lincolnshire.
The police department in Shreveport, LA must not have checked this officer’s psychological profile very well. In fact, this is so sick that it makes me wonder if there is ever any follow up on Police Officer’s psychological processes. I think you might have to be a bit off to want to be a cop in the first place, so if you are not off when you start there is definitely a case that you will go bonkers after you are on the force for a couple of years.
Surely someone must have seen that this policeman was a danger to people? It is not like the woman attacked him, all she did was ask to make a phone call which I thought was a right when arrested. It is not like she killed his partner; she was pulled over for a first time DUI.
Don’t drink and Drive in Shreveport is all I can say.
I am sure that for the most part police officers are really professional. However, when I see stories like this, the certain hesitant distrust of people that have absolute power over me comes in play.
Perhaps I am missing something with the story about this woman, but if what happened to her happened to me I would rather have the bad guy get me than ever call the police again.
I was thinking about a post that my friend on Metaphysic Storm wrote and for some reason this song by Kate Bush came to mind. It is a depressing anti- war themed song. The young man goes off to war because he does not have the education or the money to do anything else with his life, and returns home dead.
I then continued the thought about his post and this song, Army Dreamers, and started really contemplating our contenders for President. I asked my sister, who has always been a staunch Democrat, who she was voting for and she said emphatically, John McCain.
I was really surprised thinking she would say Hillary, and asked why she was so sure that he was the correct choice. Her reasoning is that we need a president that can manage the war and manage the small emerging countries that have nuclear weapons. It is imperative, she said, that we get this under control and I do not think that anyone else has the experience to get the job done.
Back to the song Army Dreamers, I think part of her decision is also based on the fact she is the mother of a 16 year old boy who does not always achieve in school and does not have the money to buy his way out of a draft. He very well could end up a victim as could everyone’s children if we do not reach some sort of resolution in Iraq and Iran and if we do not have the diplomacy to make peace with emerging nuclear nations.
I still plan to vote for Obama in the primaries, but will keep an open mind based on what I think is best for our future generations in the final election.
