    So here are some numbers I found, and I was in foster care for about a year as a toddler, you don’t won’t to put a kid in foster care. According to national statistics provided by Arrow, 40 to 50 percent of those children will never complete high school. Sixty-six percent of them will be homeless, go to jail or die within one year of leaving the foster care system at 18.

      Arrow also said 80 percent of the prison population once was in foster care, and that girls in foster care are 600 percent more likely than the general population to become pregnant before the age of 21.

    This came up in my reading tonight and it’s appropriate for the content of this article:

    Isaiah 10: 1-3
    Woe to those who enact evil statutes And to those who constantly record unjust decisions, So as to deprive the needy of justice And rob the poor of My people of their rights, So that widows may be their spoil And that they may plunder the orphans. Now what will you do in the day of punishment, And in the devastation which will come from afar? To whom will you flee for help? And where will you leave your wealth?

      Excellent scripture reference! It’s like I keep saying before, unless the Book’s turn from their wicked ways and repent from taking their misery and enacting multiple miseries on other people by exploiting their wealth and influence, as opposed to actually doing good with it, then they will spend eternity in the lowest level of hell right along with good old Judas, Hitler, and Satan himself.

    Sorry, not enough sleep and too much time online. Thanks! I just hope everyone makes the calls.

    From what I have experienced in the past, calls to Senator Rubio and Nelson’s contact phone is a very easy and expedient process. Its what everyone needs to do, and maybe some think it does no good to call but it definitely does NO good not to, so lets all write down a few notes next to the contact numbers and practice our most courteous
    tone and make these few calls.

      They are federal. Book’s bills are State.

        Isn’t her charity a 501 c3? If so why not have everyone report her to irs and get her charity fined or taken off the money profit list. C3 s can’t advocate for any politicians or laws period she should step down shall an elected official or not put any bills toward that would go towards her non profit

    Nothing will be accomplished by just going after these bills. We have to go after the Books themselves. The politician Book can’t be touched in her official capacity, but her non-profit and her affiliation with it can. Her father is only a lobbyist and is vulnerable to a law suit.

    We need background info on these two individuals.

      Start with this…

      In 1986, Ronald L Book was charged with multiple felonies for filing false insurance claims and second degree theft (case no F-86-014568). He plead it down to a misdemeanor. In 1995 he was convicted and received a suspended sentence for several counts of political campaign contribution violations (case no M-95-042797).

      Take a look at the political contribution disclosures of the Miami-Dade and Broward County politicians (the ones in Tallahassee too) and look for not only Ron Book, but his clients, associates, friends, barbers, etc… See what you come up with.

        You can place me on a committee that will concentrate on the Book’s. You know how to get in touch with me. I would like to invite 1or 2 (or as many as would like) to join me in this fact finding mission. We can fight back against the Books. All we have to do is look for the info.

          I will put you in touch with an individual who also indicated an interest in working on the project.

      Agreed. But will be very difficult, since Ron Book has his hands in many state officials’ pockets, to include those who would deal with corruption claims. I’m looking into how to bring about such action and how they usually pan out, and anticipate it’ll be a long process.

    The Books have found a golden goose VENUE to make all of their dreams come true-make tons of money! by using registered citizens as a foot ball to kick around.

    “It’s “CALLED SAVE THE CHILDREN” I was at the RALLY IN TALLEY a few years back joining with registered citizens-concerned citizens protestation Mr.Book who was running across Florida to the state capital for her save the children from S.O.F. books-run for state office

    One block form the capital she has an entourage of bikers for kids on motorcycles- all kind of save the kids groups- a line of police cars-fire engines with lights flashing following her,- her dirt bag dad emerges from a side alley- runs with her- as she is approaching the capital fire works-go off- a band starts playing- the who front of the capital looked like some kind of rock concert venue complete with a stage for her to speak to a mob

    The whole BOOK Org is like a rock band concert, complete with MGR’s–promoters-side crews-groupies-all combing to put on a show of her as the singer, singing I wanna save the children from S.O.F
