Time to change the game.

About 15 years ago, Killer Karla proactively participated in kidnapping, drugging, raping, humiliating and murdering, her own younger sister Tammy, Ms. Leslie Mahaffy, and Ms. Kristen French. There is yet another girl known to have not survived her encounter at the hands of Killer Karla or Paul Bernardo, Ms. Terri Anderson. Remember at this much, these victims, after all the suffering inflicted by Killer Karla were also found dismembered and dumped. Furthermore, there is also evidence of her assistance in planning and carrying out many of the rape assault activities of Paul Bernardo, the Scarborough rapist. Killer Karla is a real doll! However, as I am consistently reminded in running discussions by UrbainDruid, she has served her sentence and I should move on, (“don’t hate the player, hate the game”).

About 12 years ago, Karl Toft sexually assaulted as many as boys as he could get his hands on. A little research reveals his gruesome history; “numerous sexual offenses perpetrated against male children aged 12 to 17 years of age, over an 18-20 year period”! For what he did, he has been titled, “Canada’s worst pedophile”! However, he has served his mandatory 2/3 sentence and has been released! The grand-daddy of pedophiles has served his sentence and we should move on…right?

Pappy Poker participated in whatever rehab program we, as a society has asked for, and has opened his post penitentiary life to surveillance and restrictions as has been put to him. Killer Karla refused any rehab program and has been suing to lift the similar post penitentiary restrictions, (recently lifted by the courts – again, don’t hate the player, hate the game, right?)!

So then, taking these two examples of terror in account, can we say then that it is OK to restrict a convicted, sentence served child molester but it’s not OK to restrict a convicted, sentence served child molester and murder?

Time to change the game.

Please, make it stop!

Please, make it stop!

Those words, from a friend's posting, started me thinking...and that's when the trouble usually starts!

A manhole is called a manhole because once upon a time it was a man who typically used it, not because men want to keep women down, (by naming a hole in the ground after themselves)!
“Christmas”, is a celebration of Christ.
“Xmas”, is a commercial invention to save the high cost of letters in advertisements!
So when someone says, “Keep Christ in Christmas”, he, (or she) its not an attempt to bring someone down …it’s just a desire to remember that Christmas was not the commercial venture it has turned into.

A Christmas tree is to Christmas as a Menorah is to Hanukah.
Although Halifax presented Boston city with a gift of a Christmas tree, Boston has disallowed its residents from calling it a Christmas tree. It’s now a holiday tree. Everyone is pissed, bylaws are popping up forcing one thing or another, and no one is happy…well, they’ve certainly taken the spirit of Christmas from the Christmas tree, haven’t they?

To be politically correct, trying to appease everyone, the correctness Gestapo would have me say what…”Seasons greetings”? Totally removing my own spirituality to avoid a possible misconception of what, or who? Wait a moment, what about Jehovah’s Witness? There isn’t a “‘seasonal” celebration this time of year for the Witnesses; maybe I just offended them now!

Please, make it stop! We have far too much to be concerned about to be fighting over to call it a Christmas tree, or a holiday tree, it’s still an F*%# tree!

Happy CHRISTMAS, and whatever best wish greeting you'd like!
