Thanks SLM, I never had a problem before and wondered what was wrong. I’ll blame it on old age.

Kes, this song is in the spirit of my religion. Mother Nature (God) didn’t make junk. We humans have created junk or trash. I always feel closer to God when I’m in the woods and see the critters.

Weekend Music Thread – TV Show Theme Songs

My kids and I watched the Muppets every chance we had. So many life lessons could be learned by those Mupets.
Excellent choice, Zeke.

Some great choices, Kalima.

» Posted By Nirek On December 14, 2014 @ 5:24 am

PPO, like you , I must have spent too much time watching TV. I knew all of them too.

» Posted By Nirek On December 14, 2014 @ 5:22 am

Fergie, M*A*S*H was in my opinion the best show ever. They would make you laugh one moment and cry the next instant !

Excellent pick.

I liked them and the smothers brothers and the hudson brothers, too.

The Torture Report – An Organization Held to Account…But Not One Single Person

Ad, I would be satisfied and gratified if “w” , cheney, and rummy were tried for War Crimes. However I don’t think I’ll hold my breath.

Grand Juries Agree: Police Are Authorized to Kill Poor Black Men

Brodie, that list tells such a story. Sad to say America has not advanced in race relations as far as I had hoped.

» Posted By Nirek On December 4, 2014 @ 3:20 pm

Kes, I would like to know how many unarmed white men have been killed by the police?
That would be a telling piece of information along with Brodie’s info. I’m willing to bet that list will be a lot shorter.

» Posted By Nirek On December 4, 2014 @ 3:15 pm

Ad, this has to stop. Police need to be sure that a person is resisting before using excessive force. Mr. Garner was not resisting. He was saying he can’t breath. He was a large man and looked to me like he was not well. The police in the vidio were overpowering him and the chokehold was NOT supposed to be used!

Mike Brown did , I guess steal cigars but he never should have been shot.

The twelve year old boy was playing and the cop pulled up close and shot within 2 seconds? How was that justified? The cop had a poor record from a previous PD. Why was he hired in the first place? “Trigger happy” was one of the reasons for the poor report about him.

I am certain that most police are truely good people but the PD’s need to train their officers to use the least amount of force necessary to subdue someone.

Last thing, this seems to be only with people of color. We don’t seem to see white people being killed without a chance to servive.

Okay last thing now. The Grand Jury system leaves a lot to be desired.
