I've finally created a page just to sell the stickers. Yeah, I know, it seems like a minor deal, but you people have no idea what a technophobe I am. If it's new and has lots of tiny parts, I avoid it like the plague.
Anyways, for all you bloggers out there who want to help me sell some bumper stickers (and you DO want to help, right?) the webpage is http://ragingdave.blogspot.com. Send any and all traffic you wish, and I'll appreciate it. Since the post down below is going to get archived in the next few months, sending people to the webpage is better than to a post that may or may not have permalinks, depending on how Blogspot feels that morning.
You can have peace. Or you can have freedom. Don't ever count on having both at once. - Robert A. Heinlein -

Serenity rants. Hot damn. Wear protective gear, you might need it. And Serenity, just remember that I'm up in Seattle, dealing with that bullshit on a daily basis. I know how you feel.
Sir Banagor lets it loose as well. Methinks that people have had enough of the bullshit.
Yep. After reading Dok Russia, I KNOW people have had enough of the bullshit.
You leftist pieces of shit better understand this:
We. Are. At. War.
Our outcome is either victory or death. There is no third option, for our enemy will allow none. Your perverse tactics of selling us out for power are really starting to piss us off. Allying yourselves with a foreign enemy is making us angry, and you will not like us when we get angry. Every goddamned stunt you pull in pursuance of power is dragging this whole country further and further to the edge. If you don't quit your bullshit, we are all going over, and the only thing to settle is who will land on top. It is time to take sides. It is actually way fucking past time to take sides. Either you intend to destroy Wahabbiism, or you don't. We do, and we will whether we have to go over you or through you.
I think I'll let them speak, because they understand my rage.

Get me the BIG gun, darlin'
It's RINO hunting time. Because if anyone who calls themselves Republican is in favor of this, they obviously need to switch parties and get it over with.
The new bill is being dubbed the Get Outdoors (GO) Act, H.R. 4100, although it is more accurately dubbed the "Get Out of Rural America Act."
What does H.R. 4100 do?
It would allocate $3.125 billion annually -- much of it for government bureaucrats to acquire private lands that have been historically used for hunting and fishing.
But once the land is under government control, there is no guarantee that such lands would continue to be used for such sporting purposes. When rural land disappears, opportunities for recreation -- especially plinking and hunting -- tend to disappear as well.
Let's get one thing straight - Private land ownership in one of the cornerstones of this country. To be able to own your own chunk of paradise, where ever that might be. For me, it's in Northern Idaho. For my friend R., it's in Montana. Some people love Texas. But government control of land is antithetical to almost every American ideal there is! And gee, they've done such a great job taking care of it, haven't they? Let see, pine beetle infestations gone uncontrolled? Check. Massive forest fires that sterilize the ground? Check. Complete degradation of usable land? Check. Whenever the government gets it's grubby paws on property, you can be assured of two things: 1) Public use of that land will be severely curtailed, and 2) maintainence of that land will go down, because it's hard to upgrade and protect the land when you're slurping the shriveled cocks of whatever eco-freak group comes up that week.
Republican Representatives Don Young (AK) and George Miller (CA) are the chief sponsors of this legislation. What is their reason for offering this legislation, when there is very limited constitutional authority for the federal government to own land?
"Obesity is a public health crisis of the first order," Miller said. "And the Get Outdoors Act is a sensible way to help mitigate that public health crisis."
No, that is not a joke. The ostensible reason for the "GO Act" is to help slim American's waistlines by providing more opportunities to hike around the woods.
Fuck you, Young and Miller. Get the fuck out of the Republican Party, you socialistic snotwads! More government controlled land is NOT THE ANSWER! If people want to get off the asses and go for a walk, they will do so! They is plenty of government controlled land as it is, adding more of it WILL NOT DO A DAMN THING!
What idiotic slimy shit sacks! You want to prevent the government from owning all of America? Figure out where your paradise is, and then start buying land. Ten acres here, five acres there. Buy an acre at a time if you must. But don't let these RINOs get a damn bit of it.

They're HEEEEEEErrrrrrreeeeee!
The Bumper Stickers have arrived!
The picture is a bit large. The stickers are actually 4.25 inches long and 2.75 inches high. I don't want anyone buying a sticker and then getting upset when it doesn't cover their entire rear window.
They look pretty good, and they're decent vinyl, not some cheap soft plastic. So, it's all good. I've got one on my truck right now, and the girlfriend has her car adorned as well. I'll be putting up a webpage just to sell them (with a PayPal button and everything!) but for now I'll just put a button in this post while I fiddle around with blogger.
So, who wants one? Two dollah, two dollah, whadda price for a such a fine quality sticker of this var-eye-a-TEE! Two dollar bills, twenty thin dimes, these stickers can be yours for the LOW LOW price of TWO, count 'em, TWO DOLLARS!
Just to make sure all the bases are covered, if you use the PayPal button, send me an email with the number you bought. I should get your addy from PayPal, and it's off we go!
UPDATE: Crap, PayPal isn't working for me right now. I think I can fix it. Avoid the button until I get it working.
UPDATE 2: There, it's working. I'm going to continue to fiddle around with it, as it seems there are more options than I first thought. Any other bloggers out there who want to share the love, please do. I have 248 of these things waiting and ready to go out.
By the way, if anyone hates using credit cards and/or PayPal, drop me a line. We'll work something out.

Kerry AWOL
From his job.
A push by Senate Democrats to extend jobless benefits lost by a single vote yesterday - as their nominee-to-be, John Kerry (search), missed the vote while campaigning in Kentucky.
Kerry, the only senator to miss the vote, said he didn't come back to Washington because "we were told that no matter what would happen, [the Republicans] would change a vote in the Senate and they were not going to let it happen."
"Waaaaah! The Republicans were going to be mean, so I took my ball and went home! Waaaah! (whine, snivel, cringe) What a gutless pile of puke. When confronted with his own screw-up, he does what he always does: blames someone else. What a worthless windbag.

More Democrat Lies
So the Donks are screaming that they should have known about the prisoner abuse scandal when it first broke, right? They're demanding Rumsfeld's head on a platter. They're frothing at the mouth and acting like the petulant children that they are. All par for the course.
Except for this.
Democrats howling for the resignation of Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld for not informing them of reports of prisoner abuse in Baghdad are ignoring the fact that concerned parents of an accused soldier informed 16 members of Congress - top Democrats such as Senators Hillary Clinton, Edward Kennedy and John D. Rockefeller - and the governor of Virginia of the burgeoing scandal as far back as February 26th of this year.
Gee, who woulda thunk it? Democrats having access to information, turning it away, and then throwing temper tantrums when they don't have it?
Lawson, the uncle of one of the accused soldiers, Staff Sgt. Ivan L. Frederick, gave NewsMax.com the names of the members of Congress and Virginia's governor as well as the text of the explosive letters in a series of faxes.
Here are the names, all Democrats except for Rep. Roscoe Bartlett, Sgt. Frederick's congressman:
Senators Jack Reed, Mark Dayton, Robert Byrd, Bill Nelson, Evan Bayh, Mark Pryor, Edward Kennedy, Benjamin Nelson, Hillary Clinton, Joseph Lieberman, Daniel Akaka, Paul Sarbanes, John D. Rockefeller, Governor Mark Warner and Rep. Roscoe Bartlett.
Senator Byrd's office would not even accept the letter e-mailed to him on the grounds it was too long.
Bartlett said he was looking into the matter.
Sarbanes said he had written the the "appropriate officials."
Rockefeller begged off on the grounds that he was barred by privacy rules.
Senator Joe Lieberman is the only one of these members of Congress who has defended Donald Rumsfeld and the world's mission in Iraq.
Bring back tarring and feathering, I say. Found at RNS.

Time to clean house
Only in the Government could something like this happen.
At least 28 senior-level federal employees in eight agencies have bogus college degrees, including three managers at the office that oversees nuclear weapons safety, congressional investigators have found.
Two words: JAIL TIME.
Three unaccredited schools — Pacific Western University, California Coast University and Kennedy-Western University — provided data showing that 463 of their students were federal employees. Most of those listed were in the Department of Defense. The report did not name employees. (emphasis mine)
The investigation took place from July 2003 through February.
Well, that explains why we've kept the M-16 around for so long. These worthless jerkwads have been hanging around for a looooooooong time, folks. Time to clean house and get rid of the trash.

Haloscan and Honey Buckets
What's the connection? Well, it seems like HaloScan is in the crapper every time I turn around. Rather hard to add a comment when you get a blank window every time.
Meh. Maybe they've been hit hard by the newest virus or worm. Death to all virus creators!
Anyways, there's some contruction going on at my place of employment, and the obligitory Port-o-John arrived today. I'm not complaining, but it just reminded me of a gripe that I had when I was stationed at Ft. Riley.
We'd go to the field for a training excersize, and one of the first things you do would be to camo up your area. Trucks, tents, trailers, everything covered in camo netting and hidden from view. By the time you were done, you couldn't see jack squat. So now that the tent is hidden, your truck is hidden, your camp is hidden, what's the one thing that people see? A big, blue Jonny-on-the-Spot, right in the middle of your camp!
Now when I was in Korea, you grabbed your E-Tool, dug a cathole, and did your business. Cover it up, toss some vegetation around, and nobody knows you were there. What the hell is up with the Port-o-John? How the hell were people going to practice field sanitation? If I had not have gone to Korea before I got to Ft. Riley, I would have been one screwed up troop! As it was, the training I recieved in the 2ID was more than some of the Sargeants at Ft. Riley had ever gotten!
It seems that I have some bad memories attached to just about everything in daily life, and most of them come from my time spent at Ft. Riley. I wonder if that means anything......

Tent City Redoux
Once again, the worthless parasites that suck off of the public teat are moving to a new location. For those who don't know what I'm referring to, it's called Tent City, a "temporary" encampment set up by a group of homeless people in Seattle. Some of the occupants of Tent City have lived there for months, even years. A picture in the local fishwrap showed a "homeless" man in a tent, supposedly to evoke pity in the readers. Too bad there was a frigging TV in the tent as well. Kind of hard to get any pity from people when these worthless oxygen thieves are shown sitting on their ass watching TV instead of actually working for a living.
The new location for Tent City was announced rather recently, and with little warning. Predictably, the residents in and around the new location are rather upset. But King County Executive Ron Simms is pushing this through, after he had a "change of heart". As usual, all emphasis is mine.
After he vetoed a bill intended to bring a tent city for the homeless onto county property, King County Executive Ron Sims had a change of heart that led him to support the project, he said yesterday.
His turnabout — which he said preceded a threat by tent-city organizers to occupy county parkland with or without permission — resulted from a discussion with Jackie MacLean, county director of community and human services.
Not only are these worthless oxygen thieves demanding land, they're threatening to camp out in a public park if they don't get it! These worthless nutsacks have the balls to start demanding support from a society whose obligations they have chosen to remove themselves from! Why the hell aren't they in jail? And it just keeps getting better!
He and County Councilwoman Carolyn Edmonds said yesterday they were disappointed that SHARE/WHEEL had declined invitations from two churches to camp on their land.
These worthless shitstains REFUSED OFFERS FROM CHURCHES TO USE CHURCH LAND! Fuck them, and fuck their Tent City! As far as I'm concerned, let them either get a damn job, or toss their lazy ass in jail! They want recognition and use of public property? That's fine, we'll give them some public property they can stay on! And they'll actually have BEDS! With separate rooms! And STEEL BARS!
After SHARE/WHEEL threatened last month to occupy a county park, Sims recalled, "I thought, 'Why do they always threaten? Why do they push so hard?' I just couldn't figure it out until after this: This is the battle they go through all the time."
"This is a battle they go through all the time" Snivel, snivel, whine, whiper, cringe. Fuck you Simms, you ball-less shitsack! If you had any got-damned spine you would have told them exactly where they could go and how to get there! After years of these snot-sucking fuckwads running rampant through Seattle, always demanding, always taking, never contributing, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! You cannot tell me that a group of people who are organized, obviously capable, and have their own special intrest group CANNOT GET A FUCKING JOB! They have CHOSEN TO LIVE THIS WAY! And somebody in this city needs to find their balls and state the damn truth! If they want to live their lives as parasites so that they can sit on their lazy asses then we as a society have NO OBLIGATION TO ASSIST THEM! I have a perfect fucking area they can live in, all we need to do is borrow a ferry and dump them off in the middle of Puget Sound! Yeah, all your land is right there, under 600 feet of water! HAPPY SWIMMING!
But unfortunately, this city is filled with liberal dipshits of every kind, as proven by yet another crap-filled column from the local fishwrap.
In most cities, the arrival of tents means a circus. Animals and trapeze acts. Clowns.
But here in King County, it means the arrival of a tent city: some 100 homeless people performing high-flying acts of survival for a community that sees them as animals and clowns, and balks at the price of a ticket.
Oh, they're clowns allright, but it's idiots like this stupid bint that are the suckers which PT Barnum spoke of! These people have been doing this for YEARS! FRIGGING YEARS! Can anyone not see the problem here?
On Monday, SHARE/WHEEL will bring Tent City 4 to county-owned fields near Bothell. This, despite the offers from two churches to host the homeless community on their properties, and despite a hail of protests from those who live near the site.
Correction: On Monday, SHARE/WHEEL will tresspass on public property AGAIN, violate the wishes of nearby law-abiding property owners and citizens AGAIN, and will crap all over the rule of law, AGAIN. Despite having other offers!
SHARE/WHEEL chose the property, adjacent to the Brickyard Road Park & Ride, because it can stay there longer than churches would allow, and because the site is larger.
Ever heard the phrase "Beggers can't be Choosers"? I guess in Seattle, they can. Because idiotic twits like Broduer allow them to be!
Gah. That's enough. I need to go eat.

The media exploded into a delightful frenzy when Iraqi prisoner abuse photos started showing up. Instantly discarding the "don't show disturbing images" philosophy that they adopted shortly after 9/11, 60 Minutes and the rest of the "Don't be silly! They're not Liberal!" media were only too happy to print images that humiliated America and enraged our enemies. And in doing so, they conveniently ignored that the military had already been investigating these abuses (That was an honest oversight, I'm sure).
Let's see if they adopt the same philosophy with the latest Islamic-wacko-decapitation of-an-innocent-American-video. Now showing at a hate America website near you.
"My name is Nick Berg, my father's name is Michael, my mother's name is Susan," the man said on the video. "I have a brother and sister, David and Sarah. I live in ... Philadelphia."
After reading a statement, the men were seen pulling the man to his side and putting a large knife to his neck. A scream sounded as the men cut his head off, shouting "Allahu Akbar!" — "God is great." They then held the head out before the camera.

That we're gonna have to pay for later. Go read Rodger's post on it. If I try to re-paste it here, I'm liable to have the Red Curtain Of Blood fall over my eyes, and I'll wake up with a trashed computer and blood flowing from my knuckles.

Texas Blogger Blastorama
Seems like Captain Jim had himself a Blogger Blastorama this weekend, with a few of my favorite Texas Based Bloggers in attendance. Good on ya, Jim. One of these days I'm going to have to take a trip down to Texas and meet some of the folks I've been reading for so long.
Great GOOGLY MOOGLY!
Now, I know that many people who read this blog are big on the more.. ahem... MODERN firearms. I understand. A semi-automatic rifle has advantages over a bolt-action or single-shot rifle that can't be touched when it comes to serious fire. And of course, most semi-autos have a larger ammo capacity than the old bolties. It's been the natural progression of firearms through the years. Muskets and flintlocks progressed to muzzleloaders, which progressed to repeating rifles and bolt actions, which progressed to semi-autos, ect., ect., you get the point.
But my recalcitrant heart loves the old bolt-actions. I love the whole history of it all. I love holding a rifle in my hands that has secrets I can't even begin to dream of. I know that if it ever came to combat, I would set aside my trusted bolt-action for something more modern, but if I don't have to shoot at anyone I want my time-tested piece of history. My 1903A3, sportsterized as it is, still brings a smile to my face every time I shoot it. There's something about a WWII battle rifle, scarred and worn, yet still in perfect working order that appeals to me. My affinity for revolvers lies in much the same vein, as does the appeal to my 1911A1. A semi-auto, yes, but a semi-auto who's design comes from WORLD WAR ONE. If that's not time tested, I don't know what is.
So imagine my pain, my surprise, and my horror when I opened up an advertisement from Sunday's paper and saw that Big 5 Sporting Goods has '91/30' Russian Mosin Nagant bolt action rifles for $75.00. 7.62X54R, 5-round fixed magazine, arsenal refinished. Oh my friends, it was most painful indeed.
For I have not the funds to get this rifle. This piece of history lock, stock and barrel.
If the stickers get here in time, I'm putting them up for sale just to get the funds for this rifle. This is one of those deals that you cannot pass up, as a collector or as a sportsman. If any of my readers are in the Seattle area, GO GET ONE OF THESE! You won't regret it. (for those who don't know, a 7.62 round is a 30 Caliber round, the same as the 30-30, 30-06, M-60, .308 Winchester, and many others. Good for hunting)

Democrat exposes himself as elitist asshat, News at 6
Go check this out. This won't get much play in the press, I believe. But yet again, another Donk has shown himself to be nothing but a fucking egotistical elitist asshat.
Tarring and feathering, my friends. Tarring and feathering. Or we could just hang this useless dipshit from the nearest lamp post. Either would be fine with me.

Let's play "Make Believe"
So, let's make believe you're a criminal. You're going to commit a crime (because you're a criminal, and if you don't commit at least one crime a month you're kicked out of the Criminal Club and no longer get to use the nifty sooper-seekrit handshake). Or you just want some cash to score some smack. Works either way.
What do you do? Well, you have a gun, obtained illegally of course. You know a few stores in the area that you could rob. Let's do a stickup!
Do you rob a store with this sign in the window? Or do you rob a store with this sign?
Folks, criminals may be dumb, but you still shouldn't underestimate their intelligence, OK? Why in the hell would a store put up a sign that says "Come on it and rob us! There isn't a person here who can do jack-squat about it!" Frigging morons.

RCOB (warning: Offensive post!)
Red. Curtain. Of. Blood.
Lawsuits may be the only way to force U.S. foodmakers to produce healthier foods or curb ads that encourage over-eating, speakers at an obesity conference said on Thursday.
Two-thirds of adult Americans are overweight or obese. Poor diet and inactivity is now the No. 2 cause of preventable death, killing about 400,000 Americans each year, the government says. Fifteen percent of U.S. children are overweight.
Cover yer ears, folks. Cause Daddy's about to yell some really bad words.
You fat fucks can eat shit and die, for all I care. You want to lose weight? Get off your fat lazy asses and go for a jog. Do some push-ups and sit-ups. PUT THE FUCKING FORK DOWN! But DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE, file a lawsuit against a company who's only fault was allowing you to stuff your fat fucking lazy piehole with whatever you fucking wanted to shovel down your bloated gullet!
Some speakers at an annual Consumer Federation of America conference on food and nutrition lamented that restaurant menus did not carry calorie counts and there were no restrictions on aiming advertisements for sugar-rich food at children or minimum-nutrition standards for childrens' food.
"Oh it's so horrible how restaurants are forcing people to actually make a decision on what to eat! Why can't restaurants just treat our clients like the droning little sheeple that they are and make the healthy choices for them?" FUCK OFF AND DIE, YOU SNOTTY FAT SACK OF SHIT! Gee, you mean you might actually have to use a little willpower when you sit down to eat? BOO FUCKING HOO!
"Trial lawyers and (state) attorneys general can be extremely helpful," said Michael Jacobson, head of the consumer group Center for Science in the Public Interest, by "filing innovative suits" that prompt foodmakers to produce healthier foods.
People choosing a salad instead of a deep-fat fried Twinkie would be even MORE helpful, you stupid fuck! This is one of the stupidest things I've ever heard! There is more low-fat or no-fat foods in the supermarket or restaurants than I can count! Lo-fat, no-fat, lo-carb, no-carb, this diet or that diet, the choices out there are unbelievable! The type of food isn't the problem, it's the fucking behemoths who refuse to put down the fucking fork that's the problem! LAWSUITS WON'T FIX THAT!
I'm sorry if I've offended anyone here, but let me make myself clear - your weight is the result of your choices! In all my life, I have met one, ONE person with a thyroid problem, and it was obvious that it was her thyroid causing the weight issues! Every other sob story that I've heard about "Oh, I just can't seem to take the weight off!" was accompanied by copious amounts of crap food! "Gee, I don't eat much, why can't I lose weight?" Maybe that case of beer EVERY NIGHT might have something to do with it? Hmmmm? Maybe? My love-handles are because I eat well and don't exercise as much as I should, not because of any company that I buy food from!
The more I hear about these lawsuits, the more I'm convinced that people will sue for just about anything so long as A) they can avoid the responsibility for their own fucked-up lives, and B) they can make money. And it's really pissing me off.
Y'all can thank Mollbot for showing me to that little news story!

If you can't feed 'em, don't breed 'em.
We've all either had personal contact with or heard stories of the welfare moms who pop out kids after kid, haven't we? I've had personal contact with hundreds of these women, due to where I work. Women who have had anywhere from three to ten kids, all of them taken away by DSHS or CPS. It's infuriating on many levels. One, you have a kid who's life is screwed up from the get-go. Either the mother was a drug fiend, and the kid has tons of problems right out of the womb, or the kid gets bounced around from foster home to foster home, causing all kinds of emotional and mental issues. All because mommy wouldn't put down the crack pipe. The burden on society caused by these oxygen thieves, and the damage done to the children that they invariably pop out like clockwork is immeasurable.
Let's just look at it from the child's perspective, shall we? As a baby, the kind of attention and care that you need is withheld from you, because mommy is too busy getting high, or trying to get high, or planning on how to get high, and mommy can't be bothered with this annoying smelly bundle. Daddy, when he's around at all (which is almost never) is either also a drug fiend, or his efforts are negated by the mother's life. There's nothing as frustrating as trying to raise a kid when the mother can cancel all your efforts out of negligence, spite, or actions caused by her addiction. What kind of life can the kid expect when his parents are, quite honestly, not worth a squirt of piss? And what kind of person will that child grow up to be? Good people don't just appear out of thin air, they have to have the proper guidance and instruction. A child learns from what's around him. If a kid is surrounded by nothing but welfare families, crack whores, and criminals, do you honestly think that the kid will grow up to be a functioning member of society? No, of course not! Not without a serious form of intervention. And yet America seems to allow the welfare families, crack whores and various other criminals the ability to have kid after kid after kid, causing untold amounts of misery for those children as well as placing an ever growing burden on society.
Which is why I smiled when I saw this.
A couple has been ordered not to conceive any more children until the ones they already have are no longer in foster care.
Will this work? Will the ruling even be allowed to stand? I'm not sure, but I think it's a good start.
A civil liberties advocate said the court ruling unsealed Friday was "blatantly unconstitutional."
Standard rhetoric from a civil liberties advocate. I'm sorry, but the ACLU has come up with more mysterious "civil liberties" and "constitutional rights" than I can count. Can't get something accepted? Call it a constitutional right and take it to court. Standard procedure. See NAMBLA for examples.
Monroe County Family Court Judge Marilyn O'Connor ruled March 31 that both parents "should not have yet another child which must be cared for at public expense."
"The facts of this case and the reality of parenthood cry out for family planning education," she ruled. "This court believes the constitutional right to have children is overcome when society must bear the financial and everyday burden of care."
Start cheering at this point. I think we've found our next Supreme Court nominee.
The judge is not forcing contraception on the couple nor is she requiring the mother to get an abortion should she become pregnant. The couple may choose to be sterilized at no cost to them, O'Connor ruled.
If the couple violates O'Connor's ruling, they could be jailed for contempt of court.
The choice is actually quite simple. Stop being a worthless drugged out skank, stop being a deadbeat dad (in the worse sense!), stop popping out kids you can't raise, and become a functioning member of society. Then you can have kids. Otherwise, stop screwing!
"I don't know of any precedent that would permit a judge to do this," Anna Schissel, staff attorney for the Reproductive Rights Project of the New York Civil Liberties Union, told the Democrat and Chronicle of Rochester. "And even if there were a precedent, it would be blatantly unconstitutional because it violates the United States Constitution and the New York Constitution."
I would like to see the part of the constitution which states that I, and everyone else who is shouldering their responsibilities as a member of society, should be forced to take on the burden caused by this couple's CHOICES. I would like to see the part of the constitution that says it's OK for the state to take the fruits of my labor and use them to prop this woman's lifestyle up. I would like to see the section of the constitution which says that this woman is allowed to burden the rest of society with the costs of her lifestyle. Please, show that to me.
And here's where I started to blow my top.
Neither parent attended the proceeding or secured legal representation. The mother waived her right to a lawyer, and the father never showed up in court.
Daddy must have been too busy getting high. If they don't care enough about their kids to even show up in court to fight for them, why the hell should they have any more? Can someone answer me that?
The mother was found to have neglected her four children, ages 1, 2, 4 and 5. All three children who were tested for cocaine tested positive, according to court papers. Both parents had a history of drug abuse. It was not immediately clear if the father had other children. (emphasis mine)
COCAINE! The oldest kid is FIVE YEARS OLD AND HE TESTED POSITIVE FOR COCAINE! This woman isn't just a shitty parent, she's a fucking CRIMINAL! As far as I'm concerned, she should have her uterus ripped out without the benefit of painkillers or knock-out drugs, and then she should be tossed in jail! The daddy should have his shriveled little dick chopped off at the same time! I would like to see ONE DAMN PERSON try to justify giving this woman those children back! ONE DAMN PERSON! Jebus H. Bend-me-over-and-fist-me CHRIST!
And you just KNOW that there will be lawyers running to this worthless fucking crackwhore's aid. "Oh, it's unconstitutional! A child should be with it's mother! Blahblahblahblahblahblahblahblah fucking blah!" Fuck them, piss on this woman, and piss on the father as well. There are responsibilities that go with the rewards of living in a society. You can't have one without the other. This woman is worse than worthless, she's not only fucked up her life but most likely the lives of those poor kids. More importantly, the damage she is causing due to her being a worthless fucking crackwhore isn't going to go away any time soon, it will extend for years with her kids. Bravo on the judge for attempting to stop this woman from causing any more harm.
She chose to be a worthless crackwhore. It's now time for us to choose not to support her or her choices. I don't think that a person who contributes less than nothing to society should expect the support of that society. More to the point, there shouldn't be any child who has to be tortured by having this worthless fucking crackwhore as a parent.
