Justice will prevail!

Consider this…
When I applied for law enforcement many years ago, I was tested, evaluated, questioned, and grilled regarding whether or not I could use lethal force against another human being. I find it curious that it was assumed and not questioned when I entered the service at the age of 18 that I would have no problem whatsoever using lethal force against an enemy of the state. Not one brass official asked me whether or not I objected to carrying a .45 pistol or an M-16 Rifle, not to mention using one or the other against another human being. It was assumed I could do so because it was my duty as an American citizen.
Is there a double standard in this country?
We condemn a murderer to the death chamber, only to have him stay on death roll for years while waiting for his appeals to run out, all at the tax payer’s expense. If that’s not crazy enough, we are constantly harassed by human rights groups telling us how evil we Americans are for administering capital punishment. I don’t get it. We have no problem asking 19 year olds to lay down their lives for their country. But we protect the rights of the convicted. For example, how many names of young Americans who have died in Iraq can you name? Probably not many, right? But Scott Peterson you know because of the media love affair with his trial. Something is wrong.
May I ask you a question?
Would the death of Jesus have purchased our redemption if He had chosen life in prison over capital punishment? This begs the question: Can honor be associated with death? I believe it can. Jesus said that there was no greater love than this that a man would lay down his life for a friend. Yes, it is tragic to hear of young soldiers dying, but they died with honor for a great nation—America. The tragedy of death is not that a young person dies. Young people die every day in America just like older people. The tragedy is that many people die without honor. Gangsters die for turf. Addicts die for one more high. But soldiers die for you and me.
What I believe.
I believe in God, country, and family. Each is sacred. Each must be preserved at all costs. To announce that God is dead is to kill the soul. To say that our country is misguided is to cop out. To destroy the family is to weaken society beyond repair. I believe in God the Father, Jesus Christ His only begotten Son, and His Holy Spirit. I believe that America will live or die by its relationship to the Father in Heaven above. Spiritual awakening is imperative. I believe the restoration of the family unit through faith in Jesus Christ can change every institution in this great land—the first being the local church body of Jesus Christ.
I believe in law and God’s order…The condemned must accept their fate and lay down their life for their victim’s sake. Young or old, men and women must continue to lay down their lives for the good of community (law enforcement, fire fighters, first responders, etc.), state (National Guard), and nation (military and public service). This is the way of civilization. This is the American way—to seek out honor at all costs, even if it cost my life.

Keep the faith. Justice will prevail!

Petition for right to protect one's self and family
A peitition that is the first step to getting the laws changed because we need to be able to protect ourselves and family with out being jailed, when the law enforcement ignores the problem, and waits for someone to be seriously hurt or killed before they act....
Right to protect one's self and family
Target:Rick Boucher, Congressman, US House of Representatives
Sponsor: Christine Schaffner
People should be allowed to do what is reasonable to protect themselves and thier family. Too often, when someone does do such, they face jail time instead of the person who was harming them in the first place.Imagine how you would feel, if you had to go to the furthest part of your peoperty and let the intruder do as they please. Then you are told, that if you raise one hand in self defense against the attacker, then you'd be the one in jail.
Right to protect one's self and family
This country was founded by people who were willing to take a stand and face the issues that interfered with thier ability to protect thier families. Why is it then, now, people are afraid to protect themselves, because too often the criminals get off scott-free, and the victims are painted out to be the criminal.

My stepdaughter needs your help..Was scammed by a man who was thought to be a friend and sent money orders to help family out and pay lawyers fees from a custody matter. The money orders was counterfited (totalling 4625 in 5 money orders) and now we stand lose everything else and lose our baby....Was told by Lee County Sheriff's dept and lawyers have to clear our names then go after the ones that sent them to my home. My husband and I are both unable to work and get a small check but that does not go far and now we have to come up with 4550.00 now since a 75.00 check was sent in by a local church. There is at least 12 federal charges being faced they say. They M-O's was used to get fees paid and buy our lil girl clothes and food because she is a chronice asthmatic. We would never do this if not dire need, and one person helping to repost much and serve as contact when I am not on-line. I know that with out help we will lose my step-daughter and then life is over for us both because fought to hard for them to be together and because of me trusting some one this now is happening.. If you think this is a scam pls contact the Lee County Sheriff's Dept and speak to a Officer Bobby Ellis he is the detective working on this @ 276-346-7777.

Repost this if you have a heart that loves children. I know most every one does have a heart towards those sweet and loving children. There is a Little girl fixing to lose her family right now and needs them greatly to avoid being placed into state care or worse with a very abusive person. The family needs to find 1000 people that would give from their heart a gift of $4.65. If a thousand people can be found that will give this small amount then a little girl will not have to suffer lose of her familyespecialy since it is around the holidays and why should any child be torn from those she loves. She is in dire need of help as is her family. Pls give anything you can to help and no this is no scam, You have my word on it. Her family is going to be taken away from her because of a scam artist and should not be punished for that. Pls show a lil love towards a child. After all is not better to give as the Good Samaritian did. Then to recieve gold or praise of men.

Thanks to everyone whom REPOSTED this if it can get to a few that help it is very worth it...Your help and reposting is needed. This is no joke. This lil girl is subject to losing her family and everything she loves and knows. If just a thousand people would send $4.65 cents then her holidays will be very much brighter and happier. If seeing her picture or knowing her is what you are wanting then I am sorry her privacy is being respected very much in this matter and I know my friends understand that. Just know if you have reposted this pls keep it going untill the mark is meet of a thousand people sending 4.65 each to her family to help. I usually don't do this but is of the gravest importants so that a lil child will not lose hope and faith.
To repost this pls press the reply to button and copy the whole thing and then click on bulletin and paste there. To copy right click and copy and to paste right click and paste thank you so very much.
