Reading American news

[Grim_Legion]

Bored and reading American news headlines, its as fucked up as our news, anyway, when the new banana republic of South Africa was born under the ANC in 1996, they saw fit to abolish the death penalty, the result our country is now one of the most violent crime ridden shit holes this side of the equator. I see with interest, that the Obama administration has asked the court to delay Humberto Leal's execution in Texas.

Fuck that and fuck the international treaty rights ! My opinion, if he was guilty of the crimes he for which was accused, kill the motha and move on !

[CrAnIuM]

, kill the motha and move on !

They did.

Texas kills people. It's that simple.

[Grim_Legion]

ahha .. seems our news is behind here .. oh well such is life .. and death

[Titty]

They did.

Texas kills people. It's that simple.

Which is one of the reasons I plan to reside there within the next decade.

[Titty]

In other news, a fan falls to his death while attempting to retrieve a ball in a baseball game; a 700lb (supposed) woman wants to gain another 300lbs to claim a world record; and some nutjob in Michigan goes on a rampage that results in the death of 7 people (of which 2 are children).

Living in the US does little to quell my belief that while the human animal may currently reside at the top of the food chain, its very evolution and mentality ensures its own extinction.

here is one from our local news yesterday....

Fayetteville, N.C. — The mother of a 5-year-old Fayetteville girl who was killed almost two years ago was indicted Wednesday in her death.

A Cumberland County grand jury indicted Antoinette Nicole Davis, 27, of 607 Mechanic St., on charges of first-degree murder, indecent liberties with a child, felony child abuse, felony sexual servitude, rape of a child, sexual offense of a child by an adult offender, human trafficking and making a false police report.

She was arrested and placed in the Cumberland County jail. She was denied bond on the murder charge, and bonds totaling $1.5 million were set for the other charges.

Isn't the world a wonderful place? :(

here is one from our local news yesterday(

Further proof of my above statement.

What a disgusting, heinous act. Anyone with knowledge or involvement should be conveniently and quietly recycled into the ecosystem, without the expense and courtesy of legal measures.

jesus.. :'(

jesus.. :'(

Let no one ever question my desire to stay armed EVEN while in my own home.

Yes here in podunk NC we have had a string of home invasions over the last 18 months. I say string .. because ONE is enough for me to keep a round in the chamber.

[Josie]

When I was in Austin, there was a rapist goin around raping joggers in my neighborhood.. it barely entered my mind *not* to go jogging.
In Alaska, I lived in the ghetto (people gettin shot up by my house and shit) alone with two chilluns and preggers.
In Connecticut, there was a problem with some dude busting in on women people during the day, raping em, stealing some stuff, and leaving.
Here, in WA.. similar problem as in CT.

I don't get scared though =/ Thinking about it, I really should be more like "oh nooooes !!" .. but I'm just not. Never have been.

[SittinGrumpy]

I am not worried about people breaking in, I mean, we sleep with both doors unlocked, living in town. I do however have 3 pits that do not like people, no one gets close to the house without us knowing it. If they ever do, I have a gun for that.

What I think is harder to prepare for is things like the story I posted..... The mother allegedly traded her 5 year old to pay off a drug debt.

There are so many things like this going on... I mean the case that I have been involved with, Robin was shot in the back of her head by her niece. The case every one is talking about on FB, family was involved.

How do you prepare for this? How do you protect yourself from "family"? I know, stay away from them is some peoples answer but that is not also healthy.


Sorry for the tangent... this shit just hits too close to home.

[Firestorm]

Never really been one to worry about things like home invasions and the like. I'm armed and carry pretty much 24/7. Why? Because I know first hand that shit happens and that 3-5 minutes you have to wait for the locals to get to you can be the longest time of your life. It's not fear, it's being prepared.

As a society, I don't think we are any more sick or deranged than we have ever been, it's just more widely reported about and shared than it was say 50 years ago. Doesn't make me any more comfortable with society though. I still think anyone who harms a child needs to die. None of this 24 appeals bullshit, strap them in, throw the switch and call it a day.

As for the topic, from Flint, Michigan: Tiarra Woodward, age 2, beaten and bitten to death for wetting the bed.

WTF? For wetting the bed? People like this are the reason I'm retired. One more year and we will be off the grid. My girl wants to finish her degree and I'm encouraging that, then we are going home to Texas.

People just disgust me, its as simple as that.

[CrAnIuM]

It's not fear, it's being prepared..

Exactly true. And yet so many see it as fear to train for and expect the worst out of every situation.

No one is 100% safe. Even presidents get assassinated.

But I refuse to give in or give up or to not fight. At the very least and last I intend to spit a mouth full of blood on the scum bag that made it close enough to kill me.

Here is another local story:

Durham, N.C. —

Prosecutors laid out the case Friday against a Durham man charged with killing a 4-year-old boy and 28-year-old-woman, saying he led a “religious” group of women and children who called him “Lord” and feared him.
Peter Lucas Moses, 27, faces first-degree murder charges in the deaths of Jadon Higganbothan, 4, and Antoinetta Yvonne McKoy, 28. Prosecutors said they will seek the death penalty against him. Defense attorneys didn't speak in his behalf at a court hearing Friday.
Prosecutors said Moses killed Jadon because he thought the child was gay and McKoy after he learned she couldn't have children and wanted to leave the group.

Prosecutors said the case came to police's attention in February when a young woman escaped from a house at 2109 Pear Tree Lane house, where she had lived with McKoy, Jadon, eight other children and three women charged in connection with the two slayings – Jadon's mother, Vania Rae Sisk, 25, Lavada Quinzetta Harris, 40, and Larhonda Renee Smith, 40.
The woman, whose identity wasn't released, told police that two people had died at the house, Durham County District Attorney Tracey Cline said. Court records have revealed that Durham police had a confidential informant in the case.
The women counted themselves as Moses' "wives or common-law wives," Cline said.
"The arrangement was the women would periodically occupy the master suite with" Moses, Cline said, adding that she wouldn't go so far as to say the group was a cult.
Living with them, all in one were room, were Sisk's four children and Lavada Harris' five children, prosecutors said. Moses is the father of all the children, except for Jadon.
Witness told police of child's deathMoses feared that Jadon might be gay because his father had left Sisk, and Moses told her to "get rid" of the child, prosecutors said.
"In the religious belief of that organization, homosexuality was frowned on," Cline said.
Sometime in October 2010, Smith told Moses that Jadon had hit another child's bottom, and Moses became angry and started walking around the house with a gun that belonged to Sisk, prosecutors said.
"He starts screaming, 'I told you to get rid of him!'" and told Sisk, "'How am I going to do this?'" Cline recalled the witness' account.
Moses ordered two of the women to set up computers and speakers in the garage, prosecutors said they were told by the witness. They said he started playing music with the Lord's Prayer in Hebrew, took Jadon in the garage and shut the door, and the women then heard a gunshot.


Prosecutors said the witness told them that the women helped clean up the body of Jadon, who had been shot in the head, and put it in a suitcase in Moses' master suite. He later told them to get the body out because it was beginning to smell, prosecutors said.


The other children, who have been placed in foster homes by Social Services, have told authorities they feared that Moses would do to them "what he did to Jadon," Cline said. "The children are fearful of Pete Moses Jr."
Prosecutors: McKoy killed after beatingMoses killed McKoy in a similar manner on Dec. 21 or 22, 2010, prosecutors said.
Family members said that Moses encouraged McKoy, whom he had known as a teenager, to join him and that after she left, they didn't hear from her again.

McKoy found that she couldn't have children and wrote dairy entries begging "Lord" not to kill her, prosecutors said.


On the day she died, prosecutors said, McKoy ran to a neighbor's house and asked to use a cell phone to call her mother in Washington, D.C. The neighbor said she didn't call police because she thought that it was a group home and that McKoy might be mentally disturbed.
Prosecutors said the neighbor told them that the other women came out of the house, and Moses struggled with McKoy and dragged her back inside.


Moses beat her throughout most of the day, with the women joining in at least once, and tried to strangle her with an extension cord, according to the witness.


The witness described how McKoy begged for her life, but Sisk got the gun Moses used to kill Jadon and took it to the bathroom, prosecutors said. The women told Moses "you cannot let her go" and said they feared him going to jail, Cline said.
They turned on the same music in the bathroom and took McKoy in there, prosecutors said. Sisk shot McKoy several times, killing her, they said.


The group threw a party a few days later, prosecutors recalled the witness saying, and Moses showed McKoy's body to several relatives, including his mother Sheilda Evelyn Harris, 56, his brother P. Leonard Moses, 21, and his sister, Sheila Falisha Moses, 20.
McKoy's body was also kept in the house for some time, taped up inside black garbage bags placed in a garbage bin, prosecutors said the witness told them.


Later, Jadon and McKoy's bodies were buried in the backyard of a house at 2622 Ashe St., where Moses' mother lived until early this year, prosecutors said. Plumbers led police to discover the remains in June.

What some people are capable of doing....

[Firestorm]

But I refuse to give in or give up or to not fight. At the very least and last I intend to spit a mouth full of blood on the scum bag that made it close enough to kill me.

My sentiments exactly. They might get me in a rush, but a guarantee I'm taking at least three with me. I never learned how to play well with others and when it comes to those closest to me, there is no limit to where I will go to in order to protect them.

[KommieKat]

You think YOU GUYS got it rough?

Bet you can't beat Realty cartels charging rent at astronomical figures, some veggie stalls not having their scales at spec and did I forget to mention pick pocketing?

Damn, it's violent around here...

[CrAnIuM]

Damn, it's violent around here...

You missed the myriad stories of knife wielding psychopaths hacking 10 -30 kids to death a few times a year.

Yep. Sure is non violent around there.

@ 0230 folks are generally asleep.

An unhardened door takes all of 3 seconds to breech. (Been there done that)


Can YOU go from slumber to combat in under 5 seconds? Yeah me either, in fact I challenge that NO ONE can. Thugs know this as well.

The dog was not a deterrent. The fact that there were three folks indoors was not a deterrent.

A hardened entry way and an ARMED home owner WOULD have made this a different story, guaranteed.



Have dead bolt locks? Good for you ..now instead of 3 seconds I may need 6 to get inside. A dead bolt and an unhardened door jamb is a waste of money.


Search Youtube for kick resistant doors and you will see what I mean.





Home Owner .... Arm yourself. Practice low light shooting, practice non dominate hand shooting, practice stress shooting, and practice CLOSE quarter shooting.

Secure your castle.

Texas kills people. It's that simple.

And they have an "express lane" for that, too...or did. Not sure where they are standing on that right now. Just know that they got tired of wasting tax dollars by housing death row inmates past their expiration date.

[Kill_em_All]

All of this and people are still dumb enough to believe that A) there is a god, and B) he gives a shit about any of us.
