When I was growing up my dad was a sgt in the sheriffs office, and a retired marine major. He put me in kung fu at age 5. I always wanted to be a cop. Joined the sheriff cadets, at age 13, and stayed there until I was old enough to become full time officer. Because of my background in weapons training/martial arts, they didnt even blink. I was hired.
After working a while I learned I didnt like what I seen, and was ready to quit in one year, but stayed about a year more. Although I continued to train them as A teacher for about 7 more years. Only because it was fun!! At the same time started the video production biz. That took me to Africa. In Africa I saw how police could get out of hand, they had tanks for cop cars!! Police check points every 20 miles, just to control the public!
Now we have cops doing the same here, they look like soldiers, and have police "drunk driving check points". I dont believe in more time for first offenders, I believe in teaching a skill like creating your own business. There are not enough jobs to go around, what does our gov think is going to happen? Teach a person how to create wealth and jobs, problem solved.
Our gov has toooo much power, we are losing our freedoms. If it doesnt stop sooooon, we will also have police check points every 20 miles, for our own protection from "terrorism".
Just give everyone a gun or two, we will protect our own. The bad guys will learn not to mess with us! Dont disarm us! Now the gov rules that way!

Hey bro!!
I want you to know that I think your a unique individual with great potential! Probably a natural born leader!
Yeah Africa was a true eye opener! Made me love what we have here in the U.S.A. I think everyone should try to travel outside the country. It is a life changing thing to see people living in conditions that are truely terrible. One thing I will not forget is the smell of the cities in Africa. You can smell them from 50 miles away if the wind is blowing right, and it smells of death, human excretement, disease, just a horrific smell! I never seen so many deaths! Aids is rampant, and killing lots of children.
I even watched the cops shoot 2 people in the head at a police check point! For being gay!! They said gays spread aids, and that carries an instant death penalty. It was even illegal to have 2 men share a hotel room! So yeah, we have it very good here bro.
Anyways wanted to let you know you are a true inspiration, and wanted to thank you for being here for me, and everyone else.

Im doin great! Got an email from this sites CSR's, and they told me not to worry about it, that because of confidentiality laws, it is almost impossible to help peeps like that.
I agree totally, and am also leaning more towards oneway's analysis of the whole situation. I guess when your in the heat of it, and having a friend die the same day, you kinda get caught up. I probably would do the same again if the situation repeated, as I love people too much!
How are you doin???

I responded to your post below. So your pretty sure mm is okay. I wasn't trying to be a jerk but I also didn't want anyone to play us. 20 days and still feel sh$%ty I thought I was the only one. Hang in their my man. U survived Africa for god sakes u can do this.
Woah! Africa that's cool as hell. Livin in a different country like that must teach you to respect the country that we live in but at the same time respect the people that don't live in our country of abundance. Its to bad that people like mexicoman are hurting for attention that bad, I would love for him to come back on this site and tell us the truth about himself, so he could connect with us and not struggle alone. I think u did nothing wrong rsd_al, it must be the good cop in you. Sometimes when u lose someone it clouds our vision. It happens to all of us. Aint nothing wrong with that only means that your human and not some emotionless robot. Sorry for my constant run on sentences.
Hey, thanks for everything last night. I didn't get a chance to say how awesome you are and your prescence on this forum has given me a great deal of comfort and I'm glad that we have had a chance to share with each other. how are you doing today.
