My Alter Ego



You scored as Severus Snape. Well you're a tricky one aren't you? Nobody quite has you figured out and you'd probably prefer it stayed that way. That said you are a formidable force by anyone's reckoning, but there is certainly more to you than a frosty exterior and a bitter temper.

Everyone that knows me says this is so true. I am just like that.

Cops

So what is going on with cops nowadays? I used to think that cops were the good guys but I am beginning to wonder if that is an accurate assessment anymore.It used to be that when you had a problem and called the cops, they would show up within 15 minutes or so. The cop that showed up was usually a well trained, level headed person that would do what they could to help you out.You could usually count on a professional, courageous, unbiased and compassionate resolution to whatever situation you were in. The bad guy (or bad girl) usually was issued a warning, a citation or got hauled off to jail as the situation warranted. If the person resisted, the cops usually gave them a good smack on the shins with his baton, took the person to the ground and handcuffed them. No big deal. Whatever force the person resisted with was the force the cops met them with to subdue them.

If you call a cop for anything nowadays, the first thing you get is a goddam 20 questions game from the person that answers the phone. They practically want you to prove to them that someone is in fact doing something illegal. It doesn't matter to them that they have received the same call about the same person 10 times in the past month from everybody in the neighborhood.If they decide to send a cop out, he or she might show up in the next few hours if at all. It is common today for some nitwit cop to show up that barely passed the police academy if they went at all. You know you're in trouble when they start making excuses for the person you called them on before they have listened to everything you have to say. I love it when they say they can't do anything because they didn't see the person do anything wrong. What a lazy ass fucking way to go huh? Ten people witnessed the illegal act but the cop can't do anything because he or she didn't see it. WTF?

On the other hand, many cops today think they have to get Rambo about every little thing. Some of them actually seem to enjoy playing Badass when they show up even when the situation doesn't warrant it. Is there ever a reason to use a taser on a young child or a senior citizen unless they are holding a deadly weapon? I think not. What kind of shit (other than sadism maybe) is going through a cops mind when they use a taser on a child under 12 or a person over 60 or on anyone that is physically incapable of harming them? I know cops show up in numbers to any situation that involves a cop possibly having to get physical. Why is it that a couple of them can't handle a young child or an old person that is being be belligerent? I think a lot of them enjoy using that taser just because it is allowed. I understand where a physically capable person that is violent deserves a good tasing or even a good beatdown but my God is it necessary for young children and old people? Can't the cops just wrestle them down and cuff them or hogtie them as necessary? WTF?

Now before you all go getting your panties up the crack of your ass I want you to know that I am not against cops. My mom is a retired cop. I know what a good, decent police officer is supposed to be. I think most cops start out being good cops but it seems that today, more and more are either going bad or at the least don't give a fuck any more. I know it is a dangerous job and the pay is not great considering the daily danger cops face but it's always been that way. What is happening to our cops now that is making them go the way of the nutjob? What happened to the well trained, level headed person that would do what they could to help you out? Where is the professional, courageous, unbiased and compassionate cop of yesterday?

I don't call the cops for anything anymore because 9 times out of 10, they are useless and it was a wasted effort. What do we need to do people? Should we all resort to hillbilly justice? Can we do anything to help the situation?

Crime & Punishment

I’m going to rant a little here. Rob over at Gutrumbles got me started on this today. I wonder if I am the only one today that thinks we have pussified America by going too easy on crime. We have the bleeding hearts that say the death penalty is wrong. We have a system that hides the criminals’ punishment away from the public. We let people rape, rob and pillage and what do we give them? Why we give them 3 hot meals a day and a place to live for free that’s what. Maybe we will put them to a quick, easy death in ten or fifteen years but maybe not. What the hell kind of punishment is that. Sure they live in a prison but what the hell, they are with their own kind right. Why should good, tax-paying American citizens have to pay for criminals’ support while they lay around on their asses getting free room and board for years? It just fucking gripes my ass. I call bullshit on the whole American system of crime and punishment. I think we need to go back to the “An eye for an eye” system. I think we also need to make all criminal punishment a public event viewed on television. It needs to be an everyday event like the 5 o’clock news. I’ll bet if we did that, the crime rates would drop so severely we could retire half of the current law enforcement personnel in the country. Think about this.

Someone murders somebody. They get the death penalty. To me murder is murder. I don’t give a damn if you planned ahead to do it or not. If you purposely killed someone, you get killed. No fucking discussion. Put the murderer on public display and kill that piece of shit in the same manner that they killed their victim. Run the execution on the got-dam evening news. This will accomplish two things. First, the criminal will never murder again. Second, everyone that sees the execution and sees how gruesome death really is will got-dam sure think twice before killing anyone. People that think about killing other people don’t think it all the way through. They know they have a damn good chance of getting away with it or getting a light sentence. Someone that is thinking about killing someone but sees a person executed on TV will more than likely think real hard about how that could be them. They will know that the system is serious.

I think everyone that commits a violent crime should have that same crime committed on them in public for the entire world to see. How many rapists do you think would re-offend if they were bent over in the middle of the street, in public and raped for say a couple of hours with a dildo as big as an elephant’s cock? How many would be rapists would go through with it if they saw something like this rapist being punished on TV?

How many assaults would there be if everyone that assaulted someone was given a good old got-dam Georgia beat down right on national TV? How man burglars, thieves and conmen would there be if every time they got caught you cut off one of their fingers in public? How many thieving, lying corporate CEO’s would there be if every got-dam thing they owned was taken away from them for their crimes and a finger was cut-off to boot.

I could go on about this for days. My point is that America has become a got-dam pussified nation when it comes to dealing with criminals and low-lives. We need to get serious about giving out real punishment that fits the crime and we need to go public with it so people can see with their own eyes what will happen if they break the got-dam law.

Okay. Let’s hear it from all you pansies that want to rehabilitate criminals and go easy on them. Let’s hear it from anyone that agrees with me. Let’s hear it from anybody. I want to know what the world thinks about this. I am sure there are some minor details that need to be ironed out.

Tom Cruise needs an Enema

So am I the only one that thinks Tom Cruise is a goddam idiot? Here is a guy that has very little if any formal education yet claims to know more about medical science than doctors and researchers that have been working in the field all their lives. How does Tom come to the conclusions he has drawn and spewed on TV and in the media? One can only wonder. He thinks because he knows the "History of Psychiatry" that he can draw the conclusion that psychiatry and psychology are psuedo-sciences. I wonder if he realizes that psychology is what his nutjob cult uses to brainwash the masses into believing their crap. After Tom's comments about Brooke Shields and her post-partum depression I have come to a conclusion of my own. Tom needs to have all the "engrams" removed from him so that he can become "clear". That is what Scientology strives for is it not? I have the perfect way for Tom to achieve "clear". Let's get together a gang of post-partum depressed women and lock Tom in a room with them and see if he can help them. Let's add Brooke Shields to the mix when Tom has spent say 24 hours with these women. Now in order to "clear" Tom we have only one choice. We get the PPD women to strip Tom down, bend him over a table and hold him tight so he can't move. While he is in this position, we get Brooke Shields to give Tom a 1 gallon tobasco sauce enema. Can you imagine how "clear this will make him. He will once and for all know the "History of Tobasco Sauce" along with being enlightened on the "History of Forced Enemas". Can you imagine the dance Tom will do when these women turn him loose? We can get the women to sing Kumbaya my lord, Kumbaya, Oh Lord Kumbaya while Tom does the cha-cha dance. One thing Tom will be "clear" on when this is done is that he should think before he spouts off at the mouth about something he knows absolutely nothing about. What do you say? Shall we give Tom an enema?
