It's Sad That One Person Can Change The Lives of So Many...and mock our justice system...
There are so many things I would like to say about the issue of trash. I won't go in to the discussion in this blog, but I will make this statement:
ONCE IT IS TRASH IT STINKS. There are only a couple of things that are attracted to trash and actually multiply while around it. Look in your garbage can. Trash comes in all sizes, shapes and colors, but no matter where it came from, the same things are always attracted to trash.
We will address the true meaning of "trash" at another time. I just had to get that statement out there.
Most of us teach our children to be accountable for their choices in life, just as we were taught. We all know that in our lives we will have many choices to make. Some will be good choices and some won't be the best choices. We always hope that our bad choices aren't life changing to ourselves and mostly to anyone else. Most of us have been taught about infringing on someone else's personal space. In other words, you don't physically hurt another human being, not stranger, not friend and most certainly not family. Most of us have been taught that if we do hurt someone, we should feel horrible and try to make it right with that person.
The pain that so many feel in this community continues to grow because there has been nothing but sarcasm, complaints, attorneys claiming abuse, t-shirts being worn that are disrespectful, some judges allowing those t-shirts in the court rooms, lawyers advocating to the State of NM Court system that it is OK to kill a law enforcement officer and the list goes on and on and on.....
My children are grown but I still show by example what is right, reinforcing what they were taught as children. So, I am confused on why a "mother" would wear a t-shirt that advocates to her son that the cold blooded murder of a law enforcement officer, which he is "allegedly" (haha!) accused of killing is OK and not bad? Why would a mother publicly feel OK that her son "allegedly" (haha!) did nothing wrong? Why would a mother be proud that all 3 of her children are "allegedly" (haha!) cold blooded killers? Why would and ENTIRE family be OK with these actions and participate in the escape of an "alleged" (haha!) killer? Why would an attorney try to make money and a name for himself at the expense of the victims family and their emotions? Why would an attorney continue to rub the victims family's nose in the fact that his client, the "alleged" (haha!)cold blooded killer is being so mistreated? Why does the court allow all these distractions?
No, I don't understand. I don't understand who taught this mother that her actions are acceptable, that her 3 sons actions are acceptable or her family's actions are acceptable.
No, I don't understand. I don't understand who taught this attorney that it doesn't matter who dies, as long as you line your pockets and put your face on TV. I wonder if he feels safe on the streets of Albuquerque? I wonder if he feels his children sleep well at night because we have law enforcement officers that protect them even while they sleep. I wonder what influences taught him when he was growing up.
One person has "allegedly" (haha!) changed the lives of so many people? Yes, one started the process and many "climbed on board", to make a name for themselves. Family, friends and community members that felt safe with Deputy McGrane on the streets are now outraged and angered because of the lack of respect given to them by this "attorney" who is out for himself and this so called family (if thats what you want to call it) that has mocked the court system over and over and walks the streets of New Mexico after commiting a list of crimes that seem to go on and on and on......
I don't hear much from DA Brandenburg and certainly hope she has what it takes to stand up for what is right and for an innocent man who was doing his job keeping her and her family safe at night.. What is right? That means prosecuting EVERYONE that was involved in the killing of Deputy James F McGrane, Jr. I hope Brandenburg is taking this seriously. We are talking about the cold blooded killing of a Bernalillo County Sheriff's Deputy. A crime this community should not take lightly. A crime that should have this community packing the court room in support of our law enforcement officers. A crime that should keep this community on the steps of the court house until a vertict is read.
Yes, it is different when it involves a Law Enforcement Officer. The only reason you sleep well and your children are safe at night is because YOU KNOW THEY KEEP YOU SAFE!
Please Donate this Christmas and help Officer Street Survival Training to send another 300 Law Enforcement Officers through this needed training. Help them to stay one step ahead of those that "allegedly" (haha!) have no respect for human life and keep us all safe. You can donate $5.00, $10.00 etc...it doesn't matter. All donations are welcome and so very appreciated and tax deductible.
Keep an Police Officer and Sheriffs Deputy Safe!
