AnecDOtE!

woman banging on door

I’m sure this has happened to everyone else. I just didn’t really know how to handle it. I was on a work trip to San Francisco and I went to a bar with my fellow worker. We saw two young ladies at the bar talking and he became interested in one. He asked me to play the wing man while he tried to get to know the other one a little better. Being married, wing man and ice breaker was my designated role on all layovers. I get in there and make a complete ass of myself telling quirky stories and talk up my buddy. He comes over and buys a round and I stay talking to the other young lady or ladies while he figures out which of the ladies he likes. For me it was always a lesson in futility because 99.9 per cent of the time they completely strike out and it gives me a story to tell the fellas at work if they don’t pay for the taxi back to the airport the next day. This day, my buddy seems to find someone that he eyes. She eyes him back and the next thing I know we are all headed to our hotel. I don’t really care what these guys do but on the way back I kept asking her friend if she wanted me to pay for a taxi for her so she could go back home, since her friend was the one that drove. She kept saying no, that she would be alright. This started to give me a funny feeling. I looked at my friend and whispered to him that he better figure something out. We get back to the hotel and he goes to the front desk and, when they weren’t watching, I made a beeline to the elevators and went to my room. The next thing I know, I hear knocking at my door and the young lady asking for me to let her in. I first spoke in Spanish “no hablo ingles” to try and ward her off. She left only to come back and try again and this time she said “Jeff told me you were Spanish or Mexican”. So I tell her “look, I’m married, I can’t let you in”. She was persistent and I locked the door with the security latch. I kept telling her no and I hear her leave. I go back to bed and I get a call from my friend and he says to let her in or he wouldn’t be able to close the deal. I told him that your deal is not my problem, pay for a room for her friend or pay for a taxi. He gave me shit for the next ten minutes so I said alright, tell her to come back here. When she got back, I yelled “No hablo fucking Ingles, I’m married, tengo catarro. You’re not getting in”. She left and when I woke up the next day I got ready for work, I met my partner, we were in Law Enforcement, in the lobby and he gave me shit. I told him, “yeah, I don’t care, yo no hablo ingles, tengo catarro, next time get her friend a room or go to their house”. I played wing man a lot over the years.

I know I’m like million, hundreds of millions of people that would do the same thing. I’m just dealing with the portion of the population that would allowed her to come in.

ALL BACK SEATS SHOULD BE PRESSURE SENSITIVE AND HAVE AN ALARM

pressure sensitive seats

In the rash of people leaving their children in cars during hot days, car manufacturers and politicians should become involved and mandate pressure sensitive seats that set off an alarm that can only be shut down by pushing a button located in the back compartment. With technology the way it is today, there has to be some common sense idea that can prevent infant deaths when the parents get distracted. If the button is pushed and the child is still there, then you know it was intentional.

After Shootings, FBI Agents Association Calls on Congress to Criminalize Domestic Terrorism (NEWSWEEK)

FBI 1

“Domestic terrorism is a threat to the American people and our democracy. Acts of violence intended to intimidate civilian populations or to influence or affect government policy should be prosecuted as domestic terrorism regardless of the ideology behind them,” the FBI Agents Association (FBIAA)….

That’s a fair statement and an unfair statement at the same time. I think, to make it completely fair, that ideologies, if those ideologies promote violence, and who and how they came to be, should be part of the criminal trial, regardless who was behind the shootings. A full investigation would and should include exactly how these people became mass shooters and should include anyone, i.e. people on 8chan, that had anything to do with this hysteria. You locked up the blind sheikh because of hate speech that incited violence, something we all agree with, why would you not do it for domestic terrorism? That would mean that anyone, regardless of how they influenced these young and impressionable people to commit these horrific acts, should face the justice system. I don’t care if they whispered it, did it through an internet site, had a group meeting, hypnotized them or through magic by wave of hands, they should all be held responsible if just one person is injured. I don’t think half measures are going to get the job done.

In New Jersey, they stopped a domestic terrorism case with no one getting injured, why does anyone have to get injured?

We all know the story of Frankenstein and how he was brought to life with electricity by the doctor who instilled in him, through that method, a desire to kill. Shouldn’t the doctor also be held responsible?

MPO: BE CAREFUL OF WHO YOU LABEL CRAZY

crazy

All I hear is public officials calling people mentally incompetent. That is not for them to state only professionals with a degree that are not on the payroll should make that diagnosis. I’m not saying that these mass shooters weren’t experiencing mental breakdowns, I am saying that we all know that there is more behind the scenes than some people would like to let on.

In 1493, Leonardo Da Vinci thought of the first lighter than air concept. A corkscrew helicopter. He was deemed loco, a nut job, a slow poke or what some people call insane. It wasn’t until 1940 that the helicopter would be invented.

With all these significantly high tech weaponary, you are never sure who is responsible for what anymore. But if you ask me, crazy is the person that can’t take responsibility for his actions, points the finger, while the whole time continuing to act in the same manner.

It’s the video game effect, (trademarked), where if you can control someone with high tech weaponary and make them go all bonkers and they do crazy shit. At the end day, they compared the amount of points, like a video game, in this case it’s body bags.

MPO: MARSHALL PLAN

marshall plan

A Marshall Plan is an amazing idea that would ensure the safety of our neighbors to the south and have a curbing effect on illegal immigration as well as boosting a slacking economy. I always wondered why businesses choose an authoritarian regime with goals of usurping democracy over democratic countries that are less than half the distance away. I am hoping this would mean opening drug interdiction bases manned by American or NATO troops and opening trade routes and re-directing businesses to the south. No plan will work unless you rid these countries of the scourge of drug running. This would also negate any need for tariff wars with China that would take a financial toll on this country. We hold most of the cards, we used to hold all the cards, pretty soon we’ll have the losing hand.

WTF: ANOTHER ONE (31) BITE THE DUST

murder god
Murder Gods are hungry

Two deadly shootings that leave a total of 31 people dead.

One crazy manifesto that decries harmonization of people of different races as the problem. I think if people of different races and ethnicities want to be together and have children, that it would provide more of a solution than create a problem. I wonder what made him feel that way?

It was reported that he was having hallucinations and hearing voices. That he was inexplicably angry. They all say that. What we do know is that many people won’t be seeing their loved ones.

MPO: RACE IS A FOUR LETTER WORD

 

I was drawn into a debate about the disparities in our government and I gave an opinion that doesn’t really reflect my views. It is true that parts of our government are  mostly white and doesn’t represent the diversity in our nation. The fact is that doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter if our government was 100 per cent white or 100 per cent African American or 100 per cent Hispanic American, that should not be the concern, the concern is if they are 100 per cent right in their actions. It would be nice to have percentages that reflect our nation and we should all endeavor to reach these equalities but I would rather it be 100% right and honest and for the people, then 100 per cent politically correct. Character is not located in your skin, it is located in your mind, heart, soul and shown in your actions.

WHAT I FEEL THE CANDIDATE IS NOT SAYING

 

biden

 

After watching 4 debates, here’s my take on what the candidate is not saying and should.

Biden: Not that I think he should get the nod but sometimes you just want express your opinion:

Joe Biden keeps getting attacked on his past votes and actions (like he should). He should stop defending his votes and state the obvious. Then is not now. No one would have been able to have the conversation that we are having now without taking the baby steps of yesterday. That it is only possible to take the steps we are today because of the steps we fought for yesterday. You have to make inroads before you make super highways. If you had tried to take the ambitious steps you are taking today, back then, in that atmosphere, be it climate change, racial disparity, global trading… it wouldn’t have made it passed morning coffee. Everything you are trying to implement today is because of the baby steps of yesterday. No one is born and runs a marathon, you first have to crawl, then walk and then you can run.

I felt bad for giving him shit for his immigration policy views, they are wrong by the way, but I think his campaign manager isn’t setting the record straight the right way and for the record, I don’t think he is a nimrod.

 

FACT OF THE DAY!

facts

We all get tired of being portrayed as someone we are not. I am not a saint, not for a lack of trying, no one is or  it would be easy for me to travel internationally, I would just walk there. I have always strived to do the right thing but I have done things wrong, but for what I felt were the right reasons. I lied to immigration officials to bring my family into the country (won’t go into excuses) and I did buy steroids from Mexico (won’t explain that one either), those are my burdens to bare and am eager to state my positions in the proper forum. Any time the appropriate agencies feel like filing those charges, federal or state, I will be right here. There is a  reason why they don’t. The clock is ticking and I have told them so. There is a statute of limitations on these charges and they are about to expire. Tick tock, tick tock.

 

THOUGHT OF THE DAY!

good v bad

The only thing a person should be judged on is their actions. If they are good people or bad people. I’m not a bad person because I speak a different language at home, or because my skin doesn’t look like yours, or because I’m heavier or lighter or because I’m not as smart or wealthy as you or because of my sexuality or because I choose to stand up for my family. Those are not the issues. The issue that we all should be judged on is if “We’re doing the right thing.” All those other things are distractions that are invoked by people to hide the fact that they are a horrible human being. So when someone references something about you that has nothing to do with actions that you have taken. You need to find out what they just did because obviously they just shit the bed and  are trying to hide it.
