Capital Punishment (Does That Bother You? 2)

This started out with the second part of, "Does That Bother You," then a tweet changed all of that. So here goes...

Does it bother you to see a mother curse out her kids in public, and then does it bother you more to think about what more they are exposed to at home? Not just verbally, but in every manner? Does it bother you to see a younger person sit in a seat, be it a bus, a restaurant, or wherever, when an elderly person is struggling to remain standing, and not offer their seat to that elderly person? Does it bother you to hear people complain about the economy, taxes, health and moral issues, government, church, and everything else under the sun, but never - ever willing to do anything about what it is they're complaining about? It's not just the imperfect Christian, right?

The imperfect Christian had no intentions of writing about capital punishment, but now that there is death in the air he thought he would touch on some news. Nothing like the morbid thoughts of watching someone executed to start a discussion, eh? The imperfect Christian received a notice about a tweet from the NY Times. It was concerning the Troy Davis execution. Kim Severson is the Atlanta Bureau Chief for the New York Times. She currently at the prison awaiting the news of Troy Davis' stay, or execution. One Twitterpation Nation Member asked: How is it that Casey Anthony kills her child, gets a million dollar book deal, and get zero time in prison, and they can execute Troy Davis with no evidence? Well my friend, the imperfect one thinks that's a dandy question. If indeed that is the case, then imperfect Christian would to have a rational explanation, but if it is indeed the case then we all know that there is no rational explanation!

Another man in Jerry Buck Inman confessed to raping and killing a Clemson student. He was convicted and sentenced to death. This Monday the court heard his appeal. It is likely according to another former judge, Judge Watson, that his appeal will be overturned. Judge Watson said at this level, nearly 50% were overturned. Amazing how the law works, or doesn't perhaps would be a better way of phrasing it?

Killing of a relationship, after three different lead singers, or now possibly four, and thirty-five years with their label, Van Halen, is leaving Warner Bros., and moving on. What other news, is there, oh yes... the weather, nothing like perking up your day after hearing about murder, and execution, than to hear it's going to rain all weekend long. Well the imperfect one hates to be the bearer of bad news so he will close with some optimistic rays of hope... The rain should subside on Friday in his area, so the ride will be a dry one on Saturday morn, and there is still no word as to whether or not Troy Davis has been put to death. It has been rumored that he turned down his last meal. Said to believe that it is a sign of good luck, because it has worked at his last two appeals. No news is usually good gu-news! Also if there is no evidence to put this man to death, and he truly is not guilty of slaying the two people that he is accused of murdering, then perhaps this will give the Georgia Law Enforcement incentive to find the person(s) that are responsible... God bless the mothers of the victims, and the accused, and God help the soul of the truly guilty, because their just due may not come now, but if they do not confess, and turn from their wicked ways it will come later anyway, and that time will more than likely be too late.

For those interested, you can get up to the hour, and often up to the minute detailing on this case on Twitter, by keeping an eye on, or by following Kim Severson. A fellow by the name of Big Boi of the "Outkast" is tweeting as well, and getting retweets from the Bureau Chief herself! He (Big Boi) tweets, "Man, I wonder how much all that helicopter gas cost...your hard earned tax dollars at work!" Again great question fella! ;)

Peace, Blessings, and Joy... that real PB&J

A Tali Ban W/ No One In Command?

Florida Men Accused of Aiding Pakistani Taliban - NYTimes.com

Man arrested in L.A. is allegedly part of group accused of aiding Taliban in Pakistan | L.A. NOW | Los Angeles Times

From the East Coast to the Left Coast, arrests are being made. Imam's in Florida and California have been accused of financially aiding the Taliban in Pakistan. The big question now is whether or not bin Ladens compound was protected by the Pakistani government, or if they were truly that incompetent militarially, and oblivious to all the goings on of the bin Laden camp three blocks down?

The men arrested could face up to fifteen years if found guilty, and if not it would be another huge shiner for the US. A good portion of the world already hates us, and the imperfect Christian would hate to think it would grow with just cause. However, on the other hand if these men are guilty, beyond the shadow of a doubt, then fifteen years is not anywhere near justifiable in the imperfect Christians' book! In fact in the imperfect Christians' book they would have to learn about the lives affected in both the Oklahoma City bombing and 9/11. That would be the first phase. Then showing clips of their children being labled as victims of the next horrific event, or photoshopping false disfigured images of their family members in caskets would be the next phase. Phase Three: showing them that all that could end with the end of the evil known as the Taliban.

Please don't misunderstand, the imperfect one is not so naive to believe that there will be perfect harmony world wide. The imoerfect Christian knows the high probability of there always being a bin Laden, or an Adolf Hitler wanna be in the wait. A wanna be always, continually, and forever more in the wait. The imperfect one will prayerfully believe also, that there will always be a morally sound Allied force to bring them down. The imperfect Christian doesn't like war. The imperfect Christian believes war should be avoided at all costs. However, when lives are being taken anyway... well the imperfect eyes see a brave, and compassionate serviceman/woman, and those eyes team with a huge, humble smile, and say thank you, and God bless you!

Blow Out, What Blow Out?

OK the one thing that I have said all along is that we shouldn't give more attention to idiots. They simply do not deserve any attention at all. That's the main reason most idiotic acts are committed. You know like kids starving for attention. One kid wrecks his bike and doesn't get hurt and everyone laughs. What follows the natural, pure, humor? Acta idiota! The idiot act is the next kid that comes along and just does a host of stupid things to get attention. So goes terrorism.


A friend sent a note with about what a Federal Judge had to say about an idiot act. I wanted to see if there was even a slight truth to the story or see if it was a hoax. I found some evidence on wiki, and other media accounts. I am glad we have wiki, she's my friend.


Robert Reid decided that he would follow a cult. He chose to sign a verbal, mental, and evil spiritual contract with a cult. He was promised by evil men, that produced a false god that this false god would grant him a false harem. He chose a path that took away choice. As an American he had the right to choose between right or wrong. Now he is incarcerated and has no choices. He as a free American citizen could have chosen to have no faith, or he could have followed a Savior that died for him, and promised him a paradise without killing. (Luke 23:43, John 14:2,Hebrews 11:16) The same Paradise that Paul spoke of to the Church at Corinth (2 Corinthians 12:4)


Here's to a few good men...

Judge William G. Young (say it with spunk like Fred G. Sanford) should run for President! Check this story please. I know this is somewhat contradictory, because I said we shouldn't give idiots and cowards more publicity, but I am not a major media source, and no one will remember this cats name from my story anyway.

To a true patriot, and please pass his name along as an outstanding man of justice, this one's for you Judge William G. Young! Young's run deep in my bloodline! Love myself some Young's including this Judge that tells it like it is!!! That's just another reason I am proud to post this!


Thanks Vern! Here's the post:


Remember the guy who got on a plane with a bomb in his shoe?


Did you know his trial is over?


Did you know he was sentenced?


Did you see/hear any of the judge's comments on TV or Radio? Didn't think so..!!!


Everyone should hear what the judge had to say.


Ruling by Judge William Young, US District Court.


Prior to sentencing, the Judge asked the defendant if he had anything to say.


His response: After admitting his guilt to the court for the record, Reid also admitted his 'allegiance to Osama bin Laden, to Islam, and to the religion of Allah,' defiantly stating, 'I think I will not apologize for my actions,' and told the court 'I am at war with your country.'


Judge Young then delivered the statement quoted below: January 30, 2003, United States vs. Reid. Judge Young: 'Mr. Richard C. Reid, hearken now to the sentence the Court imposes upon you.


On counts 1, 5 and 6 the Court sentences you to life in prison in the custody of the United States


Attorney General.


On counts 2, 3, 4 an d 7, the Court sentences you to 20 years in prison on each count, the sentence on each count to run consecutively. (That's 80 years.)


On count 8 the Court sentences you to the mandatory 30 years again, to be served consecutively to the 80 years just imposed.


The Court imposes upon you for each of the eight counts a fine of $250,000 that's an aggregate fine of $2 million.


The Court accepts the government's recommendation with respect to restitution and orders restitution in the amount of $298.17 to Andre Bousquet and $5,784 to American Airlines.


The Court imposes upon you an $800 special assessment.


The Court imposes upon you five years supervised release simply because the law requires it.


But the life sentences are real life sentences so I need go no further. This is the sentence that is provided for by our statutes. It is a fair and just sentence. It is a righteous sentence.


Now, let me explain this to you. We are not afraid of you or any of your terrorist co-conspirators, Mr. Reid. We are Americans. We have been through the fire before. There is too much war talk here and I say that to everyone with the utmost respect. Here in this court, we deal with individuals as individuals and care for individuals as individuals. As human beings, we reach out for justice. You are not an enemy combatant. You are a terrorist. You are not a soldier in any war. You are a terrorist. To give you that reference, to call you a soldier, gives you far too much stature. Whether the officers of government do it or your attorney does it, or if you think you are a soldier, you are not----- you are a terrorist. And we do not negotiate with terrorists. We do not meet with terrorists. We do not sign documents with terrorists. We hunt them down one by one and bring them to justice. So war talk is way out of line in this court. You are a big fellow. But you are not that big. You're no warrior. I've known warriors. You are a terrorist. A species of criminal that is guilty of multiple attempted murders. In a very real sense, State Trooper Santiago had it right when you first were taken off that plane and into custody and you wondered where the press and the TV crews were, and he said: 'You're no big deal.' You are no big deal. What your able counsel and what the equally able United States attorneys have grappled with and what I have as honestly as I know how tried to grapple with, is why you did something so horrific. What was it that led you here to this courtroom today? I have listened respectfully to what you have to say. And I ask you to search your heart and ask yourself what sort of unfathomable hate led you to do what you are guilty and admit you are guilty of doing? And, I have an answer for you. It may not satisfy you, but as I search this entire record, it comes as close to understanding as I know. It seems to me you hate the one thing that to us is most precious. You hate our freedom. Our individual freedom. Our individual freedom to live as we choose, to come and go as we choose, to believe or not believe as we individually choose. Here, in this society, the very wind carries freedom. It carries it everywhere from sea to shining sea. It is because we prize individual freedom so much that you are here in this beautiful courtroom, so that everyone can see, truly see, that justice is administered fairly, individually, and discretely. It is for freedom's sake that your lawyers are striving so vigorously on your behalf, have filed appeals, will go on in their representation of you before other judges. We Americans are all about freedom. Because we all know that the way we treat you, Mr. Reid, is the measure of our own liberties. Make no mistake though. It is yet true that we will bear any burden; pay any price, to preserve our freedoms. Look around this courtroom. Mark it well. The world is not going to long remember what you or I say here. The day after tomorrow, it will be forgotten, but this, however, will long endure. Here in this courtroom and courtrooms all across America , the American people will gather to see that justice, individual justice, justice, not war, individual justice is in fact being done. The very President of the United States through his officers will have to come into courtrooms and lay out evidence on which specific matters can be judged and juries of citizens will gather to sit and judge that evidence democratically, to mold and shape and refine our sense of justice. See that flag, Mr. Reid? That's the flag of the United States of America . That flag will fly there long after this is all forgotten. That flag stands for freedom. And it always will.. Mr. Custody Officer. Stand him down.


So, how much of this Judge's comments did we hear on our TV sets? We need more judges like Judge Young. Pass this around. Everyone should and needs to hear what this fine judge had to say. Powerful words that strike home...


Richard Reid (shoe bomber) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


So Richard "I'm not so rich" Reid thought he was getting 72 women, and a luxury suite at Hef's mansion, with killing innocent people that he called infidels. Instead of 72 whores (females), the word "hur," in the Quran is masculine. Hmmm was muhammed or the allah they speak of a false prophet allowed to have a few true prophetic messages, cause where Reid is headed there will be several men waiting to do him in real good!
