HOT STUFF COMIN THROUGH

Okay, here's a disclaimer of sorts .... ROFLMFAO !!!!! What I say here is true. I observed it, lived it, smelled it and got some shock value from it.

Given the propensity of the Sheriff's office to sue anyone who says anything remotely bad about them I'll just say that I'm a novelist stretching out into cyberland to discover the marketability of one of those crime thriller type of books and what might happen to a person who owns a piece of the rock inside of gambling town usa.
Anyway, I'm not saying anything bad about yall. Yall got a job. Do it. Stick to it. That extracurricular blending of other activities which is bleeding all over my family (counting the pretend friends, BACK OFF)................... that's where the fantasy ends and reality is kicking in the teeth of those who stand and deliver....

well, anyway .. for what it's worth. I woke up and made my choice today and you woke up and made yours. Lockstep all the way but preventing me from enjoying the wealth of my county was not such a smart thing to do. Would have done no harm for a nice guaranteed income. What? Seriously? You have something AGAINST intelligent people in your employ? (big surprise there) It's almost like you wanted me to end up homeless ... no... that's just toooooo SHOCKING.................

anywhoooo..... I'm not done editing any of this, just doing some ... lobbing. Or lobbying.

Some Tampa and Hillsborough Fallacies to Examine..

The Sheriff's Office has answered all questions regarding their integrity (oops, nope there's a number of them out there including the stalking going on, IMO++++)

The TPD is protecting the citizenry from gangs (ouch!! IMO++++) Seriously, the gangs couldn't operate without the protection.

When you call TPD to file a complaint, your call is directed to the next person in the 911 round-robin and your call is handled just like every other call (I'm afraid this is not true and damn it doesn't make me happy to show the difference because here again there are GOOD people still, doing a GOOD job)I guess this is half/half. IMO there are some real bad apples gwanna spoil the whole bunch, girl

The Mayor of Tampa and the Mayor of St. Pete, both in Florida on the same bay of water.... are (coincidentally) cleaning up the cities (well, that's one way you could put it but that's not QUITE the whole story.....) (and see below)

Tampa Code Enforcement and Pinellas Code Enforcement are acting within the letter of the law and do not perform selective code enforcement for properties the city and developers need and at the behest of KNOWN gang-members. (this one's so obvious that I should not even have to
'expose' it.

Hillsborough County Property Appraisers .... (frankly, I have found that these guys actually do a good job in many cases) there are just the dishonest seeded in there who disappear properties from the tax rolls, bounce the zonings back and forth, change up the property designations when the populace questions same (IMO++++ til I post the proof ROFLMFAO!!) .... oh man, this is going to be exhausting .... and this one guy stalked me around a bit just to let me know the city was paying attention to me when it became obvious that they had lied to me about development in my neighborhood and then also sent me the proof. Like that's MY fault....

When the Tampa Tribune publishes articles stating that the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office has now cleaned up all past cases involving terrible ethics on THEIR part under Sheriff David Gee -- this is what you are TOLD to believe. (IMO+++) So, some people will be nodding and thinking ... wow, that's GREAT. But, thinking people, and damn there's a BUNCH of us --- (IMO+++) they know that somehow you made a deal to shut down these lawsuits and the message to citizens is to SHUT UP and not dare file another one. But they are apparently neck-deep involved in something dangerous to the citizens of Tampa and members of this fine force are allegedly (observed proof) involved in stalking citizens of this formerly fair city. At this point,(IMO+++++) I'd think they'd figure that lawsuits are inevitable if they can't rein their people in. It's out of control.

Oh, one of my 'neighbors' (see behest and known above) (hello darlin!!) has a dear friend/relative (or two or three ROFLFMFAO!!!) on the Tampa Police Dept. force who stops by his house in shirt sleeves after he's off duty (complete with bubbly lights) who was also then involved in arrests of people in my close network. Okay, this isn't just my opinion but a matter of public record and then of videotaped evidence .... Given the fact that there's a REAL pattern involved here ... and these people have practiced intimidation towards myself and my family ... I'd say there's a real problem here. Unless you believe that these same folks who have these friends feel like they can just get away with anything whether they know the cops or not???? Keeping it convoluted, keeping it real............... Myself, I've known the cops in Tampa for years and they used to be pretty good people and I've never asked them to go arrest anyone for me but on the other hand, I don't try to intimidate people out of their property, either.

So, when they tell you the troubles are over, don't you BELIEVE it. The troubles are worse than ever and they are RAMPANT.

And someone(s) doesn't like my blogging apparently because they are bleeding city-sanctioned and participatory gang UNITY all over me and mine. (see ALL OF THE ABOVE) Choices are funny things, aren't they?

Anything physical or legally that happens among my close friends and family is highly suspect.

Oh, the Tampa City Water is pure and clean and chock full of fluoride to protect you and your loved ones from harm. (having mine examined from the samples I've saved over the last several years and if you have someone you can trust I'd advise you to do the same)

Just stating this here as the documented threats have spilled over again ..... it's just sad. It's sad and it hurts my heart, eyes and mind.

You signed up for the wrong plan. It's not too late to change. I see the shame in your eyes. I see you watching, waiting for my reaction ... you know that I love you, that I have a soft spot for your mother. My memories of her are fine and I refuse to believe that she would condone what you are doing to people and especially to ME. She took a shy little girl and set aside hours to talk to me of something dear to her heart. That's NOT just in ME; it's in HER.

It's not too late to live the life you should be living ... please TRY.

Looking in the mirror is hard man, but if you can DO IT, you are living. I encourage you to develop that lust for life instead of spending your time as too many of you do. For god's sake; it's NOT daunting, it's so fucking sad some days I can hardly keep my head up from the table. I just want to cry until you are better. It hurts me to think of how you are hurting yourself, your future and so many innocent people. Please stop. Tell your mother I said hello. I know she felt connected to me, too ... go ahead, ask her. Don't live a life that will cause you pain and regret. Don't do it. It's not for ME I ask this; but for YOU and yours. You have such a beautiful child ... let peace fill the lives of those you love. Let love fill their hearts. You'll see a change.

Damn, I get halfway through these posts and realize how fricking sad I am for the people I love and there I go ....for god's sake, I'm a minister for peace and love. Yikes.

Peace !! Love !!!

(As well, all of the above are known as 'alleged' incidents until proven in a court of law) Defamation and Libel and Slander not to be confused with my personal opinions stated above. When it comes to proof, there's plenty but until such a time should prove necessary, the above and this entire website is personal opinion for the purpose of telling the story of Tampa and what Tampa is up to concerning myself and my family.

Reaping What you Sow

Please just stop. (doesn't bother me any, I can turn this to my advantage laughably easily) But, you were given a CHANCE to turn out a human being worthy of goodness and given a chance to build strength of character.

Children are the arrows that you shoot into the future. Do you really want your arrows so tainted? A reading of your family history should evoke pride and inspiration.

Of course, depending on one's definition of PRIDE and INSPIRATION ... well, do what you will.

But, remember: I have peace, love, humility, goodness, kindness, mercy .... you know all that stuff --- over here on the light side.

Do you really think there is strength of character in gang associations and cookie cutter aspirations ? Grimy.

To each his own, just thought I'd mention it but I have tons of stuff to talk about !!

(gang unity is on my list for one day this week, man it's frickin' heart-warming to watch)

The People ARE Important

Beyond Vietnam: A Time to Break Silence
By Rev. Martin Luther King
4 April 1967

Speech delivered by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., on April 4, 1967, at a meeting of Clergy and Laity Concerned at Riverside Church in New York City.

[Please put links to this speech on your respective web sites and if possible, place the text itself there. This is the least well known of Dr. King's speeches among the masses, and it needs to be read by all]

The following is an excerpt of this beautiful speech. Please read it in it's entirety at the link provided in the title of this post.

The People Are Important

These are revolutionary times. All over the globe men are revolting against old systems of exploitation and oppression and out of the wombs of a frail world new systems of justice and equality are being born. The shirtless and barefoot people of the land are rising up as never before. "The people who sat in darkness have seen a great light." We in the West must support these revolutions. It is a sad fact that, because of comfort, complacency, a morbid fear of communism, and our proneness to adjust to injustice, the Western nations that initiated so much of the revolutionary spirit of the modern world have now become the arch anti-revolutionaries. This has driven many to feel that only Marxism has the revolutionary spirit. Therefore, communism is a judgement against our failure to make democracy real and follow through on the revolutions we initiated. Our only hope today lies in our ability to recapture the revolutionary spirit and go out into a sometimes hostile world declaring eternal hostility to poverty, racism, and militarism. With this powerful commitment we shall boldly challenge the status quo and unjust mores and thereby speed the day when "every valley shall be exalted, and every moutain and hill shall be made low, and the crooked shall be made straight and the rough places plain."

A genuine revolution of values means in the final analysis that our loyalties must become ecumenical rather than sectional. Every nation must now develop an overriding loyalty to mankind as a whole in order to preserve the best in their individual societies.

This call for a world-wide fellowship that lifts neighborly concern beyond one's tribe, race, class and nation is in reality a call for an all-embracing and unconditional love for all men. This oft misunderstood and misinterpreted concept -- so readily dismissed by the Nietzsches of the world as a weak and cowardly force -- has now become an absolute necessity for the survival of man. When I speak of love I am not speaking of some sentimental and weak response. I am speaking of that force which all of the great religions have seen as the supreme unifying principle of life. Love is somehow the key that unlocks the door which leads to ultimate reality. This Hindu-Moslem-Christian-Jewish-Buddhist belief about ultimate reality is beautifully summed up in the first epistle of Saint John:

Let us love one another; for love is God and everyone that loveth is born of God and knoweth God. He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. If we love one another God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.

Let us hope that this spirit will become the order of the day. We can no longer afford to worship the god of hate or bow before the altar of retaliation. The oceans of history are made turbulent by the ever-rising tides of hate. History is cluttered with the wreckage of nations and individuals that pursued this self-defeating path of hate. As Arnold Toynbee says : "Love is the ultimate force that makes for the saving choice of life and good against the damning choice of death and evil. Therefore the first hope in our inventory must be the hope that love is going to have the last word."

We are now faced with the fact that tomorrow is today. We are confronted with the fierce urgency of now. In this unfolding conundrum of life and history there is such a thing as being too late. Procrastination is still the thief of time. Life often leaves us standing bare, naked and dejected with a lost opportunity. The "tide in the affairs of men" does not remain at the flood; it ebbs. We may cry out deperately for time to pause in her passage, but time is deaf to every plea and rushes on. Over the bleached bones and jumbled residue of numerous civilizations are written the pathetic words: "Too late." There is an invisible book of life that faithfully records our vigilance or our neglect. "The moving finger writes, and having writ moves on..." We still have a choice today; nonviolent coexistence or violent co-annihilation.

We must move past indecision to action. We must find new ways to speak for peace in Vietnam and justice throughout the developing world -- a world that borders on our doors. If we do not act we shall surely be dragged down the long dark and shameful corridors of time reserved for those who possess power without compassion, might without morality, and strength without sight.

Now let us begin. Now let us rededicate ourselves to the long and bitter -- but beautiful -- struggle for a new world. This is the callling of the sons of God, and our brothers wait eagerly for our response. Shall we say the odds are too great? Shall we tell them the struggle is too hard? Will our message be that the forces of American life militate against their arrival as full men, and we send our deepest regrets? Or will there be another message, of longing, of hope, of solidarity with their yearnings, of commitment to their cause, whatever the cost? The choice is ours, and though we might prefer it otherwise we must choose in this crucial moment of human history.

As that noble bard of yesterday, James Russell Lowell, eloquently stated:

Once to every man and nation
Comes the moment to decide,
In the strife of truth and falsehood,
For the good or evil side;
Some great cause, God's new Messiah,
Off'ring each the bloom or blight,
And the choice goes by forever
Twixt that darkness and that light.

Though the cause of evil prosper,
Yet 'tis truth alone is strong;
Though her portion be the scaffold,
And upon the throne be wrong:
Yet that scaffold sways the future,
And behind the dim unknown,
Standeth God within the shadow
Keeping watch above his own.
