Cheyenne Cherry is an evil bitch

Actually to say this 17 year old girl is an evil bitch is a complete understatement. Cheyenne Cherry from New York City and a 14 y.o friend were burglarizing an apartment in the Bronx. While they were doing this, she put a kitten inside an oven and turned it on. There she watched as the kitten cried and scratched at the door until the kitten burned to death.



Then after her court case, she even stuck her tongue out at people protesting her and bragged about how the kitten "Tiger Lily" was dead by sayng, "It's dead bitch."And besides, to her, this was, "...just a joke." For the attempted burglary and the aggravated animal cruelty, she only gets one year in prison. This wasn;t even her first run-in with the law. She has already been caught for robbing someone of their dog at gunpoint and robbing another guy of his iPod at gunpoint.

I hope she gets the sh*t kicked out of her on a daily basis in jail. Or someone stuffs her into an industrial oven and turns on the heat. She is a worthless piece of flesh who is going to be a future strain on our legal system.

Wow.. either kids are big spenders or Visa is a dumbass company

Again, from another article I ran across on boingboing.net

Apparently, a teenager was charged $23 quadrillion dollars at a CVS pharmacy. Then, since she went over her limit, Visa charged her for an overage fee.

United Airlines Sucks

I was reading through a few of my blogs. I ran across an article about a musician whose guitar was destroyed by the baggage handlers of United Airlines. They didn;t even deny the event occurred, but refused to reimburse the musician for the damage they did to his instrument.

From www.davecarrollmusic.com

United Airlines Song Background (short version)

In the spring of 2008, Sons of Maxwell were traveling to Nebraska for a one-week tour and my Taylor guitar was witnessed being thrown by United Airlines baggage handlers in Chicago. I discovered later that the $3500 guitar was severely damaged. They didn’t deny the experience occurred but for nine months the various people I communicated with put the responsibility for dealing with the damage on everyone other than themselves and finally said they would do nothing to compensate me for my loss. So I promised the last person to finally say “no” to compensation (Ms. Irlweg) that I would write and produce three songs about my experience with United Airlines and make videos for each to be viewed online by anyone in the world. United: Song 1 is the first of those songs. United: Song 2 has been written and video production is underway. United: Song 3 is coming. I promise.

There is a full version of the story on his website. He also has links to his music and another video on his site www.davecarrollmusic.com. So.. United Sucks! and this guy, Dave Carroll has some good sounding music.

Here is the first song to United and it is quite catchy :-p :

Punishments: Republican vs Democrats

I found this article about Governor Sanford fairly interesting. Remember back when President Clinton, a democrat, got a head job from his intern? Remember how there was a whole impeachment hearing going on?

Now fast forward to Governor Sanford. He is a Republican. He actually was having an affair with a woman for 10 years and sometimes visited her on the state's funds. So, what is his punishment? Censure.

So, if the party of so-called "traditional family values" screws up, it is a slap on the wrist while being told they are a bad boy... and should continue to govern since quitting is the easy way out. If a Democrat screws up, he needs to be impeached since he is of low moral fiber and should quit.

The Dark Side of Don't Ask Don't Tell

Yesterday, a gay sailor was killed at Camp Pendleton. He had mentioned some issues with harassment to his boyfriend, but pretty much couldn;t do anything about it.
The full article is here: http://www3.signonsandiego.com/stories/2009/jul/01/ca-sailor-death-070109/

This is the bad part of Don't Ask Don't Tell. If someone somehow finds out your are gay and threatens you, there is nothing you can do about it. By reporting it to authorities or your leadership, you in turn are outing yourself and in violation of DADT. Then, you are the one who gets discharged and the person who threatens you gets nothing since he technically did nothing.

People may say this isn't a common occurrence, but I have witnessed it personally. While I was in AWACS, an Air Surveillance Officer had made a comment that he thinks gays should be lynched and left hanging in the trees. No one knew about my being bi while I was in the military. I felt very threatened by this statement. But I could not tell my supervisor. How was I supposed to without revealing my non-hetero status. After all, if I was straight, why should I care what he said?

This is the large problem with DADT. It creates a group of people that are regularly threatened that have no ability to take actions to protect themselves. It is not only an issue of discharging people who voluntarily came out or those that a jilted ex-lover purposely outed you.

And, DADT was one of the largest reasons I chose to end my military career after over 10 years of service. In one instance, I was worried about being found out and losing any benefits my time in service would have provided. In another instance, a good friend of mine was kicked out of ROTC because a girl had mentioned that he was gay. Then the hostile environment of being gay and in the military. Between the threatening comments people make and the bad jokes, it makes for a hostile work environment. Heck, people even got some punishment for making racial, sexual or religious jokes, but sexuality was totally fair game.

DADT has got to go!

Gov Sanford (R-SC) story just keeps on going...

Wow... I cannot believe that one person can keep me writing stuff. But he manages to have more and more to write about.

It appears that not only was their the Argentinian woman he was seeing. Now there are multiple women he had seen over the course of the last decade. But not only that, earlier this week, he stated that he would turn over his financial records to show that he paid for all of his excursions and didn't use taxpayer money. Well... as of today, his spokesman has stated that Gov Sanford WILL NOT release his financial records.

So... people of South Carolina... just keep in mind what Republican Familiy Values are. It is a decade's worth of cheating on your wife using the tax payer's dollars. Abandoning your wife and children on Father's Day. Lying about where you were. Lying about what you were doing when you finally reveal where you really were. And it looks like we can add lying about how you paid for your trysts.

Does God call for the deaths of Westboro Baptist protestors?

Here is an interesting thought. Especially for people who take the word of the Bible very literally.

The members of Westboro Baptist Church are always demonstrating at the funerals of our servicemen, Jews and homosexuals. Amongst their signs, they say that "God hates fags", "God hates Jews", and their constant threats that if you don't hate the Jewish people or homosexuals too, then God will destroy the world like Sodom and Gomorrah.

So, my question is how do these people know what God thinks? What right do they have to speak God's intentions when they have not personally had a conversation with God. The Bible has numerous verses about how God loves everyone, even the sinners. There is room in God's heart for everyone.

So, who is right? By all intents and purposes, by ignoring the part of the Bible such as Romans 5:8

But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

These people are ignoring the words of God. They are then substituting their own words in place of God's and claiming the words belong to God. This would then make them false prophets. Here is what Deuteronomy 18:20-22 says about it:

Deu 18:20 But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die.
Deu 18:21 And if thou say in thine heart, How shall we know the word which the LORD hath not spoken?
Deu 18:22 When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him.

So not only shall these false prophets of Westboro Baptist Church be sentenced to death for violating God's Law... those of us around them should not fear the false words they spew. God loves everone on this Earth, and so should you.

Sanford's dirt keeps piling up...

And yet another item to make this an even better story...

Apparently, the taxpayers of South Carolina paid for the trip that Gov Sanford took to sleep with his Argentinian concubine. He justified it as agribusiness trade meetings. Sanford is apologizing for that too and says he will repay the cost of his trip.

Well..technically he was meeting an agribusiness representative..since that is what Maria did. A little sex for favors situation? ;-)

Iran continuing to fall

The protests of the suspiscious elections continue. So far, the people are protesting over discrepancies noted in most of the precints. Such items were that more people voted for Ahmadinejad than there were voters in the district. Yet, the cleric council that oversees the election board (and allies to Ahmadinejad) have declared that the election shall stand. Then, last week, a 27 year old girl named Neda Soltan (Soltani?) was murdered in the streets by a gunman in addition to scores of others.

Now, Ayatollah Khatami is calling for anyone who is protesting should be declared a "mohareb". This is pretty much calling them an enemy of God. The penalty is execution for anyone declared a mohareb.

This attempt to squash the publics determination to a fair election will not end well. If this goes through, many innocents wanting a fair government will be executed. This will lead to an all-out uprising. I am thinking this will be like the last uprising in 1979, except this time the Ayatollahs may find themselves getting the short end of the stick.

Justice will prevail. Repression can only happen for so long before the people stand up for what is right. After this occurs, the more oppressive the government becomes, the more the people will fight to be free of that tyrany.

Republican Family Values

Wow.. if this isn't too perfect.

Governor Mark Sanford is a Republican in charge of South Carolina. He is a stalwart opponent of Obama's stimulus plan...even though his state has over a 12% unemployment rate. After a rough legislative session, he just disappeared. It was reported that he needed a break and was hiking the Appalachian Trail. Even his wife and children did not know for sure of his location.

What really occurred seemed to be a bit different. He was seen at the airport coming in from Argentina. He was saying for a day or two that he went to ride along the coastline to get away from the stresses of his job. Then just now, he was saying that he was having an affair with an Argentinian woman that he has known for eight years.

So, during Father's Day, Mark Sanford bolts off to have an affair with another woman while his wife and children have no clue to where he is. I bet he is also a stern defender of "Traditional Marriage" too.

With this story constantly "evolving" the more and more it is becoming public...I am just waiting to hear that the other woman is actually a man.

From the AP on Yahoo.com http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/ap_on_re_us/us_sc_governor_where

After going AWOL for seven days, Gov. Mark Sanford admitted Wednesday that he'd secretly flown to Argentina to visit a woman with whom he'd been having an affair. He apologized to his wife and four sons and said he will resign as head of the Republican Governors Association.

Something that does bother me even more about this. He was having an affair. That is something that opens someone up to blackmail. Not only was it an affair, but an affair with a foreigner. So, this leads me to wonder if a foreign power could have had influence over an American politician.

Protestor Neda Soltani Murdered - Graphic

This is a video clip of one of many protestors in Iran that have been murdered. These people are only protesting the massive voting irregularities in June 12th's election. Foreign journalists are also being subjected to severe restrictions on covering any protest.

But, these brutal killings are taking place in the streets in broad daylight. In the video below, a girl, Neda Soltani was shot in the chest by police. Al Jazeera (an independant Middle Eastern news station) has yet to be able verify the authenticity of the video due to a news embargo going on in Iran. The Iranian government-run news station is trying to pawn this off on British and Western groups influencing the situation. Plus, I am totally sure that Iran is giving us a "Fair and Balanced" report of what is going on(sarcastic tone). But at least 13 others were killed this weekend.

This video clip is graphic, DO NOT play it if you are squeamish


Hopefully the truth can get out to the world about what really happened with the election. But so far, the it looks as if the country is heading more and more into another revolution. May our prayers be with those who have been killed or injured.

Nokia be damned...

I don't think I will ever buy another Nokia product. Apparently, Nokia-Siemens is providing the Iranian government tools so that they can crack down on the election protestors.

This is only pure greed in its best form. Nothing like allowing a repressive regime to further squash any dissent within their population.

World of Warcraft

Well... time for the geek in me to come out. This weekend, our small guild will be running some of the old content in World of Warcraft. Yesterday, one fo the members got the key to Kharazan(sp). So we are going to try to run that tonight.

Hopefully by running a tougher raid from the Burning Crusade, we can work on coordination. We are planning on running Naxxramus(sp) as soon as we can get the BC raids down.

Congrats to Renegades Rugby (DC)

Congratulations to a good start for the year to the Renegades. I got to talk to a few of their team this last weekend. I found out that they have gone for an impressive 11-0 record this Spring. Four of their victories came from the Rites of Spring tournament held at the beginning of May. There, they defeated Div II team Washington Irish (3-0) and Div I team Washington (14-13).

Hopefully they will continue to have an outstanding year when the Fall rolls around.
