Previously he divorced the biological mother of his adult daughter Stephanie Hayden. Now he is married to a third woman and has been charged with raping his daughter by the ex-girlfriend. Why do I have the feeling if he was black or liberal you'd be ON this story like stink on crap... <br /><br />I'm right and you know it. My point here is your double standard, which is showing again. With the Ferguson story you didn't hesitate to smear by inference even though facts have not been determined in a court of law. The key was the story involves a black victim and a predominently black community. <br /><br />The other story I mentioned about Will Hayden matches the typical profile of your argument about disintegrastion of black families and having children out of wedlock, yet you don't give it the time of day because Hayden is white. <br /><br />By the way, if you haven't seen it, you might enjoy "Night Of The Comet" and likewise "American Beauty". One film is a campy sci-fi satire, the other a slow motion introspective on the train-wreck of an unwinding family. <br /><br />Or perhaps you've seen them already... <br /><br />Cheers.Kiev500https://www.blogger.com/profile/15814006967775676414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4682405763952879345.post-71128334430877347592014-08-29T21:41:28.250-04:002014-08-29T21:41:28.250-04:00Never watch "Sons-of-Guns." Of course, a...Never watch "Sons-of-Guns." Of course, anecdotes prove nothing. Of course, the tragic statistics on the break-down of the black family is anything but anecdotal. As Walter E. Williams points out today, this breakdown has nothing to do with discrimination or white oppression. During the slave and Jim-Crow eras, the vast majority of black children lived in the home with both parents. In other words, during these eras, in spite of great oppression, the black family remained largely intact. <br /><br />The 9-year-old killing her instructor is a tragic story and reeks of stupidity. I've shot such guns before and given the recoil, there's no way I would put one (on full-auto) in the hands of a 9-year-old girl. My 10 and 12 year-old boys are shooting single-shot 22s and 410s. Given its recoil, the 410 is a little bit of a stretch.

Check your neocon talking-points memos and those dregs of internet misinformation you cite as news sources and tell us all about this man's family, his community, and his predisposition to criminal behavior which results from his political ideology. Be sure to mention names and lay blame by inference, which you are so very good at. <br /><br />-Or perhaps we should wait for the truth to be determined in a court of law? Gee... since you didn't wait or hesitate on that last story, it looks like you may have set a personal precedent for future behavior, -right? <br /><br />Look, I'll understand if you refuse to cover this story with one of your propaganda hit-pieces. After all, you never claimed to be fair and balanced, and to your credit you're not. <br /><br />So if you don't want to cover the sad story of what happened to "Sons Of Guns", maybe you can cover the equally sad story of the 9-year old girl with an Uzi who accidentally shot and killed her idiot shooting instructor. That'd make a nice alternative, dontya think? Wanna talk about the questionable ethics of teaching children to shoot targets that are silhouettes of people instead of a round "bulls-eye" target? Surely you can come up with some appropriate words for that... <br /><br />-- A 9-Year-Old at a Shooting Range, a Spraying Uzi and Outrage -- <br /><br />Link: <br />http://www.nytimes.com/2014/08/28/us/arizona-firing-range-instructor-killed-by-girl-9-in-accident.html?_r=0<br /><br />This might be a good time to talk about moderation and sensible limits. Try it and you might accidentally find your real calling. <br /><br />Or you can keep quiet and the next time we hear this story, it will be a 5-year-old with an Uzi whose parents were shocked by the rather predictable outcome of fundamentally bad parenting choices.Kiev500https://www.blogger.com/profile/15814006967775676414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4682405763952879345.post-4296053434346630512014-08-25T05:18:38.847-04:002014-08-25T05:18:38.847-04:00Just can't stay away from that Ferguson story,...Just can't stay away from that Ferguson story, can you Trevor? With all of this repetitive activity likely to cause localized blistering, I hope someone gets you a jar of theological vaseline... <br /><br />Frankly, I'm almost shocked you haven't blamed the Ferguson incident and rioting on ISIS infiltration of the American homeland. <br /><br />Meanwhile you jump all the way over to the Rick Perry story in Texas. Of course, there's a parallel here with Georgia's own Governor Nathan Deal trying to stymie an investigation by firing the investigator. Nixon proved it's usually not the initial crime itself, but the coverup attempt that does the political damage.<br /><br />To tie this back together, all the people in Ferguson Missouri and Texas and Georgia want is the whole, unvarnished truth. <br /><br />Speaking of the unvarnished truth, why is your web site background progressive democrat blue? -Shouldn't it be more like GOP red or demographic-mashup purple? What would Freud say?Kiev500https://www.blogger.com/profile/15814006967775676414noreply@blogger.com
