An ex police officer wrote me about 6 yrs ago via the internet and said they are just giving these guys the oppertunity via the internet. That to me says it all. A Christian giving the opportunity for some sexual hi-jinks.. Sounds like the lowest of police abuse one can do to another.

Redemption comes by grace and the receiving of it and not by man’s distorted means’ and methods of dishonor. Hey believe it or not some are so intune with prison they can’t want to get back in prison as a safe haven. I don’t think prison’s are a safe haven but something always good comes out of something bad so we all press on.

This probably all stemmed from a male officer pulling over a pretty female driver. The officer said “Hey let me get your twitter or something and I will just issue you a warning”. Then the girl posted on her facebook “Damn now the po po be tryin to get your twitter and shit”.
LOL

Disclosure: When I was a cop, social media meant looking at books in the library.
If you needed to make a call, you had to go to a payphone and put in a quarter.

“ I need to see if you aren’t wanted, a registrant, terrorist, sovereign citizen, illegal, and other thing I can pull out of my hat; so I demand to know your screen name so I can run it. Later I’ll hit you up. Till then use your seat belt.”

Gee things keep getting nutty. Yesterday I got a notice about how to keep your kids safe from predators on the way to school. I thought sex crimes were going to go through the roof due to Covid. That’s what Fox told me and I know how trusty foxes are around the hen house (news or facts).

I think this statement best reflects what the world thinks of us:

“The Gainesville Police Department recognizes that child exploitation is the most heinous of crimes that could be committed.”

There you have it, child exploitation IS WORSE THAN MURDER.

“Why do other ex felons including Murderers get programs, jobs, rental assistance, Get featured on shows about redemption etc.”

It’s because people that don’t have a voice and resources are easily controlled and subjugated for political fodder.

Yeah I once made a comparison.
They (Whoever they are) say Watching porn is said to lead to physical rape.
Well that is like saying all people who smoke pot will eventually transition to cocaine.

Although both can occasionally happen, that does not mean it is a given. But hey, the public LOVES a sensationalized story. To Hell with the facts right? because facts are boring and the news wants a story that wins them a broadcasting award.

Here for anyone who cares is the Journalist creed written in 1914:

The Journalist’s Creed
I believe in the profession of journalism.

I believe that the public journal is a public trust; that all connected with it are, to the full measure of their responsibility, trustees for the public; that acceptance of a lesser service than the public service is betrayal of this trust.

I believe that clear thinking and clear statement, accuracy and fairness are fundamental to good journalism.

I believe that a journalist should write only what he holds in his heart to be true.

I believe that suppression of the news, for any consideration other than the welfare of society, is indefensible.

I believe that no one should write as a journalist what he would not say as a gentleman; that bribery by one’s own pocketbook is as much to be avoided as bribery by the pocketbook of another; that individual responsibility may not be escaped by pleading another’s instructions or another’s dividends.

I believe that advertising, news and editorial columns should alike serve the best interests of readers; that a single standard of helpful truth and cleanness should prevail for all; that the supreme test of good journalism is the measure of its public service.

I believe that the journalism which succeeds best — and best deserves success — fears God and honors Man; is stoutly independent, unmoved by pride of opinion or greed of power, constructive, tolerant but never careless, self-controlled, patient, always respectful of its readers but always unafraid, is quickly indignant at injustice; is unswayed by the appeal of privilege or the clamor of the mob; seeks to give every man a chance and, as far as law and honest wage and recognition of human brotherhood can make it so, an equal chance; is profoundly patriotic while sincerely promoting international good will and cementing world-comradeship; is a journalism of humanity, of and for today’s world.

That is one of the top 10 oddest stories I have ever seen. Maybe just behind the fact we left so many Americans stranded in Kabul.

I guess I will move to San Francisco, I could live off of the don’t shoot me money program.

Yet another example of the differences in how they treat other criminals. They want to create these restrictions as “public safety” for us, yet this…..

That’s because people assume all on the registry are dangerous; which our government has taught them while other criminals are okay. Hysteria and fear has been bought hook, line, and sinker of the general public. We have to have fisherwomen/fishermen who aren’t afraid of uncharted waters and claim the fears are unfounded with facts that the waters are safe.
