I have been saying it, and I will say it again.  We as a community must
start getting prepared to take care of ourselves.  We have got to stop
believing that other people are going to move on our behalf. There should be
disabled groups screaming and raising all kinds of hell at the city of
Tallahassee, and at your local congressmen. ACB, NFB, should be on the
phones right now, coming together with other disabled groups to put together
a protest. There is no reason, that this young woman who was already
overcoming her disability on a daily bases, should be struck down by some
stupid kid who has never faced a consequence in her life.  And because she
cries, and feels bad, she will prob have to do some community service of
some sourt. Mean while as a community, we get mad, but go silent, after a
while. I think we should really think about what has happened, and ask
ourselves the question.  What if this were any of us?  What would we do?
Would we just shrug our shoulders, and move on, or would we want our
friends, family members, and community to stand behind us? Dr. Martin Luther
King said, there just comes a point where you just get tired.  Has that time
come for our community?    

I'm glad to be your humble and obedient servant,

Choose ye this day whom you will serve.  If YHWH be Elohim, then serve him,
with all of your heart.  However, if Baal be your god, then serve him.  As
for me, and my house.  We choose to serve YHWH!

The late Bishop Joe O Patterson told a story long ago, when I was a small
child.  about the show down, between Elijah, and the 450 false prophets of
Baal. He shared with us how Elijah, stood, and told the false prophets to go
on ahead,and call their god first.   Because they had a much larger program.
He talked about how they had 450 participants to introduce. Elijah was so
sure of YHWH, he with confidence said, that he only had one.  Elijah also
reminded them, that they had to drag their fake god up the mountain side on
an ox cart.  Elijah also announced to the world, that his Elohim would be
there when he arrived.  He said mockingly, you go on ahead.  Heck, I will
even let you have prime time.  I'M going to take a nap, and when you guys
finish your foolishness, wake me up.  Go ahead now, take your best shot.
Bishop Joe O Patterson
A blessed memory

I guess we all know what will happen to the FSU student that ran over the
woman in the wheel chair. I don't understand it either?????

I just can't get over an article in today's Democrat: a short summary of it
is that Willy Megs (the State's Attorney), has decided not to file any
charges against the driver of an automobile who hit and killed a teenaged
driver, when she ran a red light speeding 20 MPH above the limit.  The
incident occurred in May.
 
The facts of the light being red and the driver speeding aren't being
disputed; Willy Megs however justified his decision by saying "We all speed
and we all run red lights."
 
This is absolutely unbelievable to me!  This says to me, drivers, it's open
season, whatever you do, it's going to be ok, because we all do it!  
 
This is especially bad news for pedestrians, who are in much greater danger
from drivers, and I suppose are covered under this blanket decision not to
prosecute if one should be killed.
 
If time allows I'll get the text of the article and post it.  I just can't
get over it though: no matter how badly a person is driving, we can't expect
anything to happen to them (unless it's a ticket; then, the city and county
and state need the money!)
 
aaarrrgggggg!
