RE: [PSUBS-MAILIST] PSUB Fatalities...View Ports...Shatterproof
HI Wade,
If I invaded your country would you move...or fight
to protect whats yours? And if you did move..what of
your neighbors??? Would you leave them to fend for
themselfs. In the few years I was on Baker St I
became the president of a group called " Neighbors United
In Action " we cleaned up the neighborhood,got a
community center built with a park...got funds together
to purchase 3 community computers, setup a comunity
police station and put many drug dealers in prison.
Most of all we gave the people in that community a sense
of pride...I was the most outspoken of the group and
being quite stubborn also the only one in the hood to
stand up to the drug dealers when violence came up...
of course the AK47 and other weapons I collected helped
me be able to stand up to them...I once had about 20
kids storm my back porch..a young man yelling to his
thug friends " He can't shoot us all" to which I calmly
replied " maybe...but your the first to die!" They all
stopped in there tracks when they saw the AK...months
later that kid and I talked..I called him over and told
him how he was wasting his life away....he said he
wanted out of the gang lifestyle...was going to start
a house painting business. I am a builder and told him
I would help him get started...but he went to Texas
for vist with family. I heard he was killed there in
a gangstyle driveby shooting. If you want to stop
the violence convince young people to leave the gangs...
and help them to become productive citizens...but with
these gangs..never let your guard down and never give
up your guns. Sometimes invasions start right in your
own backyard.
Also,
For our foreign friends,
Please don't let this talk of violence scare you away
from visting the U.S.
I have traveled all across this country and never had
a problem..most of America is very safe with loving
people...and if you should find yourself in a violent
situation..who knows..maybe,just maybe some guy will
suddenly show up from knowwhere..with a sixgun by his
side..............................
