Creed of Greed

by Linda Ballard

There is an oath to not grow old.
What must one do to sell his soul?
You live life quickly, Low and Behold.
Live fast, die young, you are too bold.

Played by your rules__poor ideology.
A hasty decision was made not understanding the psychology.
Destroying Gun Legislature is pure mythology.
Government regulations and their reaction to crime is part of criminology.

You behaved horribly so you ranted and raved.
Did you think about the lives your vote could save?
Instead, you danced and mocked our children’s graves.
It was your message, your legislation, and look what it paved.

Revealed to the WORLD what has been taken.
The lives of our loved ones have now been forsaken.
Your WORLD will be rocked and it will be shaken.
It is TIME for your PARTY to be awakened.

The oath you have taken to CRUSH, OBSTRUCT, and DESTROY.
It will turn to your PARTY and SELF DEPLOY.
Our loved one’s lives have been treated like toys.
The pain and suffering return 3 folds, oh boy!

These stolen lives deserved a VOTE.
Is DEATH the message you wanted to promote?
Background Checks should never have been remote.
Death Squad Kingdom is what your PARTY denotes.

You told LIES and acted like big TIME jerks.
Do you think your plan has truly worked?
Trouble is ahead it will wipe off those smirks.
When the TIDE changes it may leave YOU berserk.

One cannot hide with all their wealth.
Please, do be concern about your health.
Do you realize the hand you have dealt?
Gun Legislation will not be swept up under your belts.

Would you like to know how this story ends?
Why did you sell your souls for countless sins?
Was it so important to call this a win?
It was reckless and now your troubles will begin.

You desperately wanted to sit on the throne.
Every bill was impeded down to it last bone.
Pretty soon your Party will stand alone.
You have served your purpose and soon will be gone.

Your plan of action to succeed.
Stood by and let our hearts bleed.
Sworn to your oath you stood by your creed.
While the people suffered because of your greed.

Hold Up Kee-Mo-Sah-Bee!

by Linda Ballard

Who is Kee-Mo-Sah-Bee? Well, Kee-Mo-Sah-Bee (KEMO-SABE) today is your friend, dawg, soul mate, homie, homegirl, homeboy, and confidante. Get my DRIFT :). We are going to drop back to yesteryear for only a moment. I don’t like hanging back in the past too long. If it is for MENTAL purposes, yes. I still have the BRAIN POWER to reach back and REMEMBER. My clock is still rocking and I have not forgotten. I do not wish to enter into the boxing arena with ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE, PARKINSON’S, ALS/LOU GEHRIG’S DISEASE, DEMENTIA, or any of the other neurodegenerative diseases waiting to snatch up my BRAIN. So I must THINK BIG.

Wow! Talking about loss of quality of life and losing all those precious memories, this would be pure horror. You will lose even more. A person whole circuit board is wiped out. One would lose their ability to functional living skill. I don’t want to use the word IMAGINE because this is not going to happen in the mind of someone with a degenerative disease. Not being able to write, dress, extreme muscle weakness, motor neurons of the central nervous system eventually fade out, gets destroyed, and the body suffers from restricted muscle/muscle paralysis.

Rescue is in order. Back in the day, there was a masked man who rode by himself and did a world of good. Is this going to be an UNCLE LAWRENCE STORY? NO! UNCLE LAWRENCE was really creative. Did UNCLE LAWRENCE stretch his stories? NO! He straight out LIED. His stories were pure entertainment. Do you know they have a NEWS NETWORK that functions just like UNCLE LAWRENCE? It is called FOX NEWS and it refuses to give the FACTS. Some of the people who appear on this show can LIE their A.. off just like UNCLE LAWRENCE. No CODE OF ETHICS

The masked man had a code he followed. He believed that no matter what changes, the TRUTH never changes. The TRUTH lives on for AEONS. The masked man believed whatever was taken later in life one has to settle up and make payments for that which was taken. If you wanted friends you must learn to be a friend to yourself. You would need to know who you are as a person before you could reach out and try to befriend someone else. He felt if there were rules made whatever was BEST for the MAJORITY of the people should be the rule. If there was going to be a fight, a person had to be prepared mentally, physically, and morally. In today’s TIMES, you have to come with the megabucks. Even back then the LONG RANGER believed the government was by the people, for the people, and of the people. His A… would have been the LONE STRANGER and he would not be riding again. Hi-Yo WHO? It would not be SILVER.

Check this out! A brown horse was ridden by the LONE RANGER before there was SILVER. LONE RANGER rescued SILVER. LOYALTY! KEE-MO-SAH-BEE was a diverse white man in a mask hanging out with a chocolate animal and an INDIAN called TONTO. This brother was ahead of his TIME. I bet you the mask was representing he was hiding something. Do you think he was gay? Did the LONE RANGER smoke too much with TONTO and didn’t want anyone to know he was high? WOW! He would fit right in. Just like he rescued SILVER, the SUPREME COURT would be passing judgment on his GAY RIGHTS. Don’t let me tell a story. I can mess it up. Give me a bible story and CHRIST will be shooting hoops, and cutting a record deal instead of walking on water. OKAY, SKEET…put on the brakes. This does not refer to PRESIDENT OBAMA nor JAY-ZEE. So let it go.

In today’s TIME, the LONE RANGER would tell you that everyone inside their shell could make this world a better place and all men are created equal. We tell ourselves that all the TIME but WE THE PEOPLE are still fighting for EQUALS RIGHTS today. At least our show has not been canceled and the great saga still continues. You know what I would have a love for the masked man to be played by SIDNEY POITIER, HARRY BELAFONTE, or BILL COSBY. CONTROVERSY! It probably was hard enough having a white man in a mask hanging out with an INDIAN named TONTO. The chocolate horse was too much so they had to throw in SILVER. The sand would be on fire and the storyline would look more like NICHOLAS CAGE in GHOST RIDER trying to mess a BROTHER up. Hmmm!

The LONE RANGER carried a gun to disarm people. It was shot first ask question later. His character was one of common sense and logic. In this day and age, this radio/television show would have not lasted long with the villains being the NRA and CONGRESS as the backers. Common Sense and Logic has been tossed into the wind if you are talking about these groups in the same sentence. I am. Is this how the movie title GONE WITH THE WIND evolved? I don’t recall an episode of any rich people taking control. Back in the day, the game was taking control of the land, not GERRYMANDERING. TONTO would not have been riding with the LONE RANGER. He wouldn’t be calling him KEE-MO-SAH-BEE and they would not be sharing the same peace pipe. The LONE RANGER would be manipulating TONTO’S rights and trying to steal TONTO’S vote. Today you have people trying to take control of your thoughts and your MIND.

Being able to step back in TIME and to REMEMBER is so crucial to one’s BRAIN. Having your own thoughts or ideas are so important. Even if you cannot organize your thoughts in a sequential manner a pill is not a quick fix. The TIME has come. WE NEED TO RETHINK THE WAY WE THINK AND ACCOMMODATE THOSE WHO PROCESSES DIFFERENTLY. A pill cannot fix what the people have failed to work on. You have to work with what you got. Every program should not be set up for academics along. If the child is coming in with learning or behavioral problems the program should be geared more toward the students social/emotional issues. Whenever a child has a unique style of learning and it is not addressed it will manifest into what looks like a behavioral problem. What do pills do? It will MASK the most essential problem. It will become more difficult to resolve the problem. WOW! THE LONE RANGER would say that. Hell NAH! I would. D… people are always trying to shoot an idea down before it can settle in the minds of the people who have great ideas. The key word is IDEA. Making a MENTAL IMPRESSION with your own MIND is your IDEA. THINK BIG.

Making a DECISION is the GOAL. It challenges the BRAIN. SHOOTING FOR THE STARS, and ULTIMATE GOAL is the individual taking responsibility for the DECISION he/she makes with his/her IDEA coming from their BRAIN. If in the event the individual processes the information differently we must go around, use another method, or take a different path. A different method of teaching must be provided to adjust to the individual style of learning. Other strategies need to be incorporated into the success of what the individual can achieve. I am not talking about using DRUGS or locking people away in JAIL. Our society has a tendency of holding every person by the same standard or rules, not in the BEST interest of everyone. KEE-MO-SAH-BEE would be pissed off.

Where are your occupational therapist, speech pathologist, para-professionals, any type of practitioners to help the child enhance their ability to use their right and left side of the brain working together (Bilateral INTEGRATION)? Did you cut them out of the budget? The process has to start very early in children to use their sensory motor skills and later develop their perceptual motor skills. All the walking, running, jumping, skipping, and playing ball that keeps our BODY COORDINATION intact. Did they cut out the P.E. program? Remember when the kids had the old tennis shoe that sat on the table in school to lace up. Don’t forget about the shirts and sweaters that the kids practice on to button up. Where is the double line paper to write with that had an alphabet off to the side of the paper to trace? It works for EYE-HAND COORDINATION back then. Whatever happened to the good old crossword puzzles or navigating through an obstacle course? It worked for PERCEIVING RELATIONSHIPS OF OBJECTS IN SPACE. It also helps determine the position of one’s body in relation to the object. Whatever happen to “REPEAT AFTER ME CLASS.” Did you REMEMBER and could you REPEAT the list of words? This was one way to help develop HEARING and SPEAKING SKILLS.

As children get older the more mature brain kicks off with the reading, thinking, writing, behavior control and having the ability to work independently in one’s own chair. Damages were done to brain activity development cause problems to these higher learning skills. The social/emotional maturity of a person is being able to organize and develop one’s senses and integrate this process of gathering more information into one’s brain. What happens to a person self-esteem if they are unable to read, write, think, modulate one’s behavior, and work independently? RIGHT! RIGHT! It plummets.

You are there. It is nothing like allowing the brain to use the information our senses take in. This is the best information one can get because every mode from our senses (hearing, sight, smell, touch, taste, how we view movement/and gravity makes the ballet FOR REAL. 🙂 It is much better than taking it in on a computer or IPAD. Our alert buttons go off, our senses are heightened, and the brains gather up more information. This is SENSORY INTEGRATION which is used in many of our life activities. The lack of interacting with one’s environment cripples the development, relationships, and interactions we have with one another. What if something happens to the BRAIN? What if there aren’t many knobs on your channel. You can burst the bubble by investigating the BRAIN. Many children/adults are at a great risk of being classified as brain damages. What achievement? You don’t have to worry about any type of achievement if you don’t THINK BIG and take smalls steps. You will not get your big leap for MANKIND.

REMEMBER TO REMEMBER. THINK TO THINK. DO WHATEVER CAN BE DONE. Will there be an early onset of ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE, PARKINSON DISEASE, ALS/LOU GEHRIG’S DISEASE, DEMENTIA or any neurodegenerative disease if we fail to take action? Put on the boxing gloves and LET’S GET READY TO RUMBLE. Hold that MENTAL IMPRESSION because that MENTAL IMPRESSION can be wiped out by one of the above diseases.

Don’t forget to revisit http://www.spdfoundation.net/about-sensory-processing-disorder.html and click on library. Also for coming in on EARLY DEVELOPMENT, revisit http://www.pathways.org. JUST THINK and we will reach THINK BIG.

Breaker Breaker One__Who The Hell Needs A Gun?

by Linda Ballard

I don’t think my boi, WAYNE LaPIERRE understands how this works neither does CONGRESS. If they had some information on how the NERVOUS SYSTEM operates, ain’t no way they would put a gun into the hands of a person with severe balance problems, difficulties with fine graphomotor skills, and lack of coordination. DUDE! More damage would be done to the individual with the gun than you can ever imagine. The 100 billion neurons of the nervous system each person’s brain have aren’t the functional unit of CONGRESS and the NRA. Their 100 billion neurons are their money in the bank and nothing in their brain. I wonder where their e-mails to their neuron chamber are being sent. I don’t think these people ever took a close look at how their children/adults function. It is all UNINTENTIONAL BEHAVIOR and nothing is planned for a person that has been diagnosed with a COORDINATION DISORDER. From the FLIP SIDE OF THE CHART, you would be listed as 315.4 COORDINATION DISORDER. On a regular day if you don’t know you will soon find out. People will view you as a clumsy, awkward, nerdy A.. person who is embarrassing to be around.

Weapons of mass destruction is a person with poor psycho-motor coordination. They are ostracized for yet another UNINTENTIONAL BEHAVIOR. Let’s get into the SPECIFICS. Talking about clumsy and awkwardness you have just learned the true meaning of BEYONCE singing to the left to the left. You are out for a walk and you realize your partner is constantly in your space. It looks like a shoving match. I hope you are wearing a bright orange or a yellow safety vest. It is possible you can ACCIDENTALLY get shoved into the street. Yes, and we know you are IRREPLACEABLE. Please find a walking trail. Stay away from the sidewalks close to the streets. Breaker Breaker One__ Who The Hell Needs A Gun?

Tell the coaches to get off the kid’s back. Sure he has the CHARLIE BROWN SYNDROME. He is concentrating on the ball, not his balance. Every time he goes to kick the ball he is going to land on his A.. This is not funny and his/her classmates need to stop the bullying because they feel their classmate is an octopus. The person puts all of their concentration on the ball, forget, to maintain their balance, and hit pay dirt. Remember the movie WHITE MAN CAN’T JUMP. Even if he could jump it’s not any good. He can’t land on his own two feet nor can he automatically resume his balance. It takes two to tango and jumping- jacks looks messy when you are trying to coordinate two sides of your body. The individual looks like they are shadowboxing without the shadow. Their body is all over the place getting beat up.

No GRASSHOPPER, your athletics skills will not be mastered. You will never be a NINJA. You must learn GRASSHOPPER how to secure your equilibrium. It will not happen with this diagnosis. BLAA…..AH! You will not be taking any leading roles in QUENTIN TARANTINO’S PRODUCTIONS. OKAY, kid, I do not mean to leave you without any hope. You want to play in the movie MACHETE. Aren’t KNIVES very dangerous for a person with a coordination disorder to manipulate without getting cut? You took four fingers off the last TIME when you tried to cut a hot-dog down the middle. Do you like sauerkraut that much? Really! Forgive my ignorance I failed to RECOGNIZE your pattern of repetitive behavior. Repeat performances are what you do. I have been very insensitive to understanding that you are not doing this to annoy me. WOW! Another action-packed and very bloody movie in the making. I’m just letting you know GRASSHOPPER a machete is a big knife. You can get pretty messed up trying to sling it around. Breaker Breaker One__Who The Hell Need A Gun?

Separating the right from the left side of your body, running from head to toe is a line marking the middle of the body called midline. So which is the dominant side? More problems are visible on the left side of the body for people with NLD SYNDROME. The left side of the brain represents the right side of the body. Left, left, ain’t no left right left. There are problems with left-right orientation. So you need to stop getting mad at your friend for turning right on ASKEW when you told them left. Don’t get no attitude because you told them to go north on SUMNER and go east on BELMONT. So what if you exited off 210 highway and landed in a “SPECIAL PLACE IN HELL” The next TIME you will travel with someone whose company you enjoy instead of the WICKED ..ITCH OF THE WEST. Keep your A.. out of the TWILIGHT ZONE. DIRECTIONS can be very DEADLY when you ask someone with poor coordination. Help me LAWD! ORGANIZATION people is not working up in their house. Breaker Breaker One Who__The Hell Needs A Gun?

Give me a break! You did not hire this person to be a HITMAN. Did you give them DIRECTION? How much information did you give them? How much TIME did you allow for this crime to take place? Did you organize the information for them? Are you expecting your HITMAN to put the details in order? Did you send ROCCO from the BOONDOCK SAINTS to do the job? What! You drove by McDonald and your client has not been HIT and remains alive. GET OUT OF HERE! People with coordination disorders will not get there by your map or anyone else directly. They certainly won’t be on TIME to do the crime. COUNTERPRODUCTIVE HEH!

Three people who were at guns shows shot themselves. A person shot himself on gun appreciation day at a gun rally in Washington D.C. I hope they were not HITMEN. What I do appreciate is this proves my point. Did the guy in the movie theater have a distinct problem when he sat down and shot himself in the A…? Why did he have a gun in the movie theater? Was there some confusion on where the appropriate place where a gun is allowed? Are you entering the SOCIAL SECURITY BUILDING? Did you not see the sign on the door that said federal property NO GUNS ALLOWED. There is a TIME and a place for everything. If you do not understand the hidden rules, you can SET IT OFF. Breaker Breaker One__Who The Hell Needs A GUN?

Please tell me you didn’t try to teach them how to tell TIME on an analog clock. They will be staring at those little lines forever. DIGITAL PLEASE! Yes, they will be late TIME and TIME again. So ease up and ask them if there is some way you can get to the movie or anywhere else on TIME. Please, Lord, don’t let it be a military funeral. You are not going to get there on TIME. Maybe the person can camp out like he/she is waiting on the HOBBIT, a new movie release in stores. When the military gates open at the cemetery, VOILA! You think the family will notice the person suit is wrinkle and doesn’t look too fresh. Does the person smell a little musty? It doesn’t matter to them because they are there for you and the family. So stop getting embarrassed because it will happen again. TIME and TIME again because I hope you realize by now they DO NOT DO TIME. TIMING can be a matter of one’s LIFE OR DEATH. Breaker Breaker One__Who The Hell Needs A Gun?

Did you notice when the person try to write it was difficult holding the pencil correctly? Did you notice how they would hold the pencil with that tripod grip? Did you notice when you ask them to write certain letters they just couldn’t remember the shape and form of the letter? Okay! You are now holding a razor in your hand. Your face is now the paper and the razor is the pencil. Do not stare at the person when they arrive at work with little pieces of paper all over their face. He had to figure out a way to stop the bleeding. Too bad wittiness wasn’t a strength for the person with poor psycho-motor coordination. He could hold up the fingers that are now cut or shorten and say to his co-workers, “Say hello to my little friends.” I am SCARFACE. A RAZOR to the face of the individual who is trying to shave has become an instrument of danger. All because of an impairment of their brain. Try a ROTARY SHAVER of that stinking MAGIC SHAVE creme. The smell alone is a legal FUNK BOMB to the person sensory of smell. Breaker Breaker One___Who The Hell Needs A Gun?

Why is the toothbrush so raggedy? Your mouth is the BLACK HOLE. We have bleeding gums all over the place. Endless amount of damage is done to the mouth because the person with the coordination disorder has brushed past 2 minutes, applied too much pressure on their teeth and gums and can’t feel the pressure. Who’s your DADDY? It isn’t the tooth fairy. Brother-man is on his way to the DENTIST with damaged gums. Where is the toothpaste? All over the mirror, sink, up to their arm everywhere except on the toothbrush and in their mouth. Please use electric toothbrushes only. Breaker Breaker One__Who The Hell Needs A Gun?

Don’t forget to put a reminder notice on the mirror or a checklist of DO for hygiene purposes. Combing one’s hair or getting the blanket balls out of the person’s hair is not the #1 priority when you have difficulty with prioritizing. Taking a bath is not first on the hygiene list when the person wakes up hungry. Peppy Le Pew our skunk friend has come calling. Don’t tell me that BODY ODOR is not an assault weapon on the person that lives with you or to the people who work around you. Breaker Breaker One__Who The Hell Needs A Gun?

Just remember when you sit down and do homework assignments with your children pay close attention. When they become frustrated with writing and it is taking them a long TIME to get the necessary output in work, guess what is going to happen next. The lead will break in the pencil and then you will feel some excruciating pain in the eye. You are big pimping an eye patch for at least 6 months. The results of the static tripod effect happen when pressing the pencil to the point of no return. Baby Boi is trying to get control of his writing. It looks as though he wrote with a dark crayon. Is he writing or is he drawing? Why? Your child/adult has FINGER AGNOSIA. Silly GOOSE! Those fingers, mostly their fingertips have the inability to recognize and interpret sensory impressions because of impairment in the brain. You didn’t know that. SHUT UP! Breaker Breaker One__Who The Hell Needs A Gun?

Oh, so you sent little JOHNNY in the kitchen to take the ice tray or the bag of ice out of the freezer to pour it into a glass. Really! That sounds simple. Did JOHNNY miss pouring the ice into the glass? Where did the ice go? Did you call out and ask JOHNNY did any of the ice get on the floor. JOHNNY doesn’t initiate conversation. What! You didn’t ask. Are you in the kitchen? You slipped and fell. Who’s fault is it that you broke everything that you stood for and your leg. Smart HUH! Communication is very essential when you know you failed to jump-start the conversation when the other person lacks to initiate conversation. Lack of COMMUNICATION is a terrible assault weapon. Miscommunication is reloading your assault weapon. How many rounds? Don’t ask CONGRESS this question. What! Thirty-six TIMES to repeal OBAMACARE. Breaker BreakerOne__Who The Hell Needs A Gun?

Do not feel publicly embarrassed if your dinner date keeps taking you out to places that have finger food. This is their hidden way of compensating. They resist eating with a fork and spoon. So what if they eat their GREENS with their hands. I did too and smash my cornbread up in my GREENS. I didn’t know it was a problem eating without a fork and spoon. I was so happy to have food. Hell, we were poor and utensil wasn’t so important to me. I was hungry. Sopping those biscuits up in the gravy makes me want to stop writing this story but I won’t leave you hanging. Yeah, baby! Your fingers can be a dangerous weapon when it comes to eating and your partner just thinks you are grotesque. Guess what? It is not INTENTIONAL. Breaker Breaker One__Who The Hell Needs A Gun?

Don’t ask them to do any art projects involving scissors. It is hopeless with scissors and with a coordination disorder you are not the star in EDWARD SCISSORHANDS I know it bothers you to keep tying your kid’s shoe because they always seem to come untied. Surprise! They were never tied. You might be tying their shoes for them for years. SLIP-ON! VELCRO anyone? Fine motor skills are impacted because of lack of finger dexterity. Lose the embarrassment and try understanding. If you are teaching them how to use scissors be sure to move your hands out-of-the-way. They will accidentally cut themselves and you will be next. The person did not mean it. So do not retaliate and cut them. Breaker Breaker One__Who The Hell Needs A Gun?

CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS loved to explore the world. Well, in relationships there are many people who are not hands on. Some people you want them to keep their hands off. Don’t go telling a person you think they are weird because they are not touching you. It may be for the best. The psychologist would put it in this manner. Due to lack of tactile perception and psychomotor prowess, this is required to have a smooth affectionate encounter to establish INTIMACY. Who writes this BS? Forget the psychobabble, Girlfriend/Boyfriend wants to be HANDLED, touched and aroused. Okay your A… is alone again. You are now the star in LES MISERABLE singing your dream ain’t what it turned out to be. ISOLATION has taken over your WORLD. ISOLATION is the KISS OF DEATH. Breaker Breaker One__Who The Hell Need A Gun?

My Buddy and I are heading to the airport. It is TIME to blow this pop-stand. WOW! I hope we can get on the plane without getting into a fight. He will bump into people and he doesn’t apologize unless you tell him to say, “EXCUSE ME.” I got my spray bottom with me with the purple food coloring in it. Why? This is the same BRO I was raised with. He will walk straight through mud, water, glass and knock a person down. We had to pull his A.. out of quicksand. I am not about to do a GLASS PLUS commercial with the bird taking a smackdown flying into the glass. I’ve done that before. This was not PLEXI-GLASS. I spray every open area to make sure it isn’t a glass. I hope my DAWG doesn’t walk through the Glass and my dumb A.. is following. Guess who got cut up? Guess who walked away without a scratch. Reminds me of the drunk driver syndrome where the driver walks away without a scratch and everyone else gets seriously injured or killed. Breaker Breaker One__Who The Hell Needs A Gun?

Call me when you get home. I had NE-NE to rearrange the closet and remove the hangers. I get tired of her fusing about you can’t hang your coat up. All of your clothes are halfway off the hangers. It takes a lot of concentration and coordination to take your clothes and make sure they are turned inside out. Some people think this simple skill of hanging clothes on a hanger is automatic. Not if you have problems with concept formation or visual-spatial organization (up/down, over/under. bottom/top). Whenever you were in the closet after laundry day you would become so frustrated. You literally got HUNG UP. If your mind can’t recognize the characteristics, the labels, and the information gets chunk together the job will take a very long TIME or it won’t get done. MALCOLM it took NE-NE a long TIME to understand you do not do well with generalizing information. The information is too broad and the gap needs to be shortened or closed so you can operate and do your “thang.” Connecting the dots is hard as Hell for you. When explaining the information that is similar the analogies just flies right over your head. I am glad NE-NE is learning and not complaining. Folding your clothes and putting them in a chest made it easy for you. I bet it has improved your SMOOTH AFFECTIONATE ENCOUNTERS to “GET IT ON.” Yeah, there has been an improvement in touching. You think you’re MARVIN GAYE. Are you blushing? Breaker Breaker One__Who The Hell Needs A Gun?

MALCOLM I am very proud of you. Although our FLIGHT has been delayed you have not fallen out of your chair. Sitting in a chair is a real balancing act and a high wire experience. I hope DENZEL is not the pilot. I like looking at the brother but he can’t drive, fly, or walk me anywhere. So it was just a movie. He did a D… good job of convincing me and he gets an ACADEMY AWARD. I can wait for another plane. MALCOLM when you started getting nervous you ask for some gum. When you found out the flight was going to be delayed you grabbed your I-POD and start chilling. You are doing really good modulating (regulating) your behavior. I am the one that’s tripping. What is the name of the website you and NE-NE are getting all this information from?

Everybody Is On Someones Hit List__ Ah! Sh…..

by Linda Ballard

T. BOBBIE, I told you not to be surprised when you look at the screen and see your name floating around. You are one of the finest educators I have ever known. To this DATE, TIME, and NOW you are a MAJOR PLAYER IN MY LIFE. What! Don’t tell nobody. Hey! You know how I love messing with you. It gives me the feeling when everyone is announcing their accolades and the UNIVERSITIES are probably sitting there thinking, “D…! I hope they don’t tell people they graduate from this school with their IGNORANT A…” BOBBY JINDAL is a road scholar. I wonder what side of the road his brain is sitting on. T. BOBBIE your next saying about me is, “GIRL YOU ARE TOO SILLY.” I am not waiting for something to happen to you to tell you how I feel about you. This is what the majority of people do. They wait too late. I LOVE YOU. You have made some major sacrifices to give to others. It TIME for me to give back to you.

Hell! You are not the NATIONAL HANDOUT SYSTEM. NEWT GINGRICH would say, “YOU ARE THE FOOD STAMP PRESIDENT”. MITT ROMNEY would say, “I would never convince them (the 47%) to vote for me).” Do they expect us to be the GIVERS? Everyone is looking for a handout, free stuff, and trying to buy something like your votes. The GOP has been identified as the TAKERS. Put the locks on the door and don’t let them in. Give yourself credit if you don’t it will be a sin. Take your hard-earned money and buy you something new. I hope you realize you are long overdue. We all know who the RUMP SHAKERS are. They will LIE to you, CRY to you, and BREAK you by far. It’s all good T. BOBBIE. Enjoy your dinner today with the family and make their A… pay for it.

It would be so nice if the POOR had more money knocking at their DOOR. It would be great if the MIDDLE CLASS is not made out to be the CLASS OF THE PAST. To top that off, if the WEALTHIEST could stop being so selfish, take a TAX CUT with their greedy BUTTS, and close down the LOOPHOLES. Show WE THE PEOPLE and OUR NATION you do have a SOUL. So T. BOBBIE it is TIME to rock this. Everybody Is On Someones Hit List__Ah Sh…

Who is ROCKIN’ THE LIST? Everyone wants to trounce people with mental illness. I am not letting it go down like that T. BOBBIE. In this blog, you can “CLICK ON” and find out about your MENTAL MADNESS. Yeah, baby! KNICK-KNACK, PATTY-WACK GIVE A DOG A BONE! COMING FROM THE FLIP SIDE OF THE CHART these NEUROLOGICAL DISORDERS/CONDITIONS are NOT ALONE. Think about it. The only difference is all other behaviors are INTENTIONAL. EVERY behavior is viewed as INTENTIONAL until it has been ruled out as UNINTENTIONAL. So stop stereotyping, demeaning, blaming, and locking folks up for neurological disorders/conditions which affects the body’s NERVOUS SYSTEM. We are talking about the structure, biochemical, or electrical occurrences in the brain or the spinal cord. The nerves can be affected which leads back and forth to the brain and spinal cord. Once the nervous system has been COMPROMISED (the WORD JOHN BOEHNER CAN’T SAY OR DO) the result causes pain, confusion, muscle weakness, poor coordination, seizures, paralysis, loss of sensation, and changes your level of consciousness.

Please remember the BRAIN IS NOT A FUSE. You can replace a FUSE. Think of the BRAIN as the coordination of your senses, your smarty pants (intellect), and your nerves. This NEURON NETWORK BOARD can become overloaded if it is OPERATED UniMODAL. One side of the BRAIN is doing all the work and you do not have a lot of choices to put your BRAIN in another MODE. The BRAIN can become overloaded or get a short in the wiring system. We use the CIRCUIT BREAKER (your ELECTRICAL SWITCH), or the STOP/GO BUTTON to RESET YOUR BRAIN MANUALLY or put you on AUTOMATIC to keep from causing damage to your network so we can have the person up and running again. Your information has taken a different route. Has anyone had their BRAIN remove lately? Don’t answer that. It reminds me of the SEQUESTER SYNDROME. What was that? What a WORD!

I will keep this simple. You have to understand what happens when CHARLIE BROWN goes to kick the ball and he gets the same results. Whose behavior is INTENTIONAL? Whose behavior is UNINTENTIONAL? Have you ever thought that CHARLIE BROWN may not be able to kick the ball due to poor psycho-motor coordination? Simple athletics skills are not happening with people who have poor coordination. This would point to one of the characteristics of a NEUROLOGICAL DISORDER. Suppose LUCY has learned CHARLIE BROWN’S weakness and has decided to push his buttons. Does this sound like anyone in CONGRESS or the REPUBLICANS?

We just can’t go around bunching everything together. Got to be more careful! What is first? Certain mental conditions are not usually classified as neurological conditions and vice-versa. You have a spectrum of sciences which deals with neural and mental. These sciences address the thought, emotion, behavior, and how one’s personal/consciousness has been influenced. QUE SERA, SERA (WHATEVER WILL BE, WILL BE)! If your A… got a problem these are the questions you should be asking. DON’T BE AFRAID TO SEEK HELP. DON’T BE AFRAID TO ASK. YOU are NOT THE FIRST. YOU DEFINITELY WON’T BE THE LAST TO SEEK HELP.

1.) What is wrong with me?
2.) Where can I go to seek out help and get a diagnosis?
3.) How much testing is involved?
4.) What is this that I have? (after you get your results)
5.) What is my prognosis(rainy/sunny day forecast, prediction, get out the crystal ball,
or other prophecies)?
6.) What are the signs and symptoms of what you diagnosed me with?
7.) Is there a cure?
8.) Is there any treatment if there is no cure?
9.) How much research has been done?
10.) What is the success rate if any of me living a productive life?
11.) How will this affect my life over a period of TIME?
12.) Are there any other mental or physical illness that exist with what I have been
diagnosed with? (In my space at the same TIME and place/coexist)
13.) What are the risk factors for what I have?
14.) Will my treatment involve medication, therapy, surgery, neurorehabilitation,
habilitation (starting from scratch, step by step procedure, no assumption made
that I know but a straight-up teaching process with just the facts jack)? Gray me
up at a later date.
15.) What can I expect from treatment?
16.) How can I help myself if I get into a CRISIS?
17.) Is there a CRISIS INTERVENTION HOT-LINE?
18.) Where can I go and get a second opinion?
19.) Will my child/adult ever grow out of his/her diagnosis?
20.) Is this a disability that will improve or worsen over a period of TIME?
21.) Am I going to live or DIE?
22.) How much TIME? Hey! I am just asking because most people don’t want to know.
23.) What is all this going to cost?
24.) Who will help me pay for all of this?

BOTTOM-LINE: It can cost you your life if you don’t seek help. Early intervention would be great but if this is not the case, PLEASE CONTINUE ON YOUR JOURNEY to seek help.

T. BOBBIE there are many people who do not ask these questions especially coming from the FLIP SIDE OF THE CHART. People with neurological syndromes find it hard to initiate conversation and don’t know where to begin asking the WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHERE and WHY questions. This is where the naive and trusting part takes over and the person with mental illness or has a neurological problem becomes the VICTIM and is easily VICTIMIZED. Their civil rights, human rights, and any other rights that are due are always violated. DR William BEGG (Bill), DR RICHARD FRIEDMAN, and many doctors across the nation understand why only 4% of people suffering from mental illness are not violent and so do I. PRISON IS NOT A TREATMENT CENTER, PEOPLE! EASE UP OFF THE BLAME DUDE. There are a lot of people who have a very short FUSE when it comes to the topic of MENTAL ILLNESS. OKAY, IT IS TIME FOR YOU TO CLICK ON and LEARN MORE.

It is strange how.GOV is hanging off these websites and the people in the GOVERNMENT aren’t clicking on. You know they are ROCKIN’ THE LIST. Every TIME we end our conversation I want to echo back what you always say to me. LOVE YA! LOVE YA! LOVE YA!

We Are The State Of The Union__Gun Violence

by Linda Ballard

There is a state of emergency. Look around this room at the many lives left in shambles. In DEATH we have formed a coalition. Our love ones state of mind will not bear the cross of shame nor sin but can rise in grace and Lift Every Voice and SING.
The purpose of our DEATH is not to DESPAIR but to plant the seed for the new grade A__ACCOUNTABILITY. Our bodies now lie in a permanent state of rest. Our souls and spirit have formed a more perfect union in order to establish justice, challenge, and champion gun violence, an ensure peace and tranquility to WE THE PEOPLE and OUR NATION. We Are The State Of the Union.

Many tears have fallen to earth as our bodies were transformed and the mist of our last breath was taken. We have become your windshield wipers of VISIBILITY. In DEATH we have banded together to become ONE. We are not gone, we will not be forgotten, we are strong, and our voices will be heard. We are not INVISIBLE. We Are The State Of The Union.

The state of our nation can use its pervasive powers to change gun violence. FAILURE and FEAR have been challenged by a new FACE. DEATH placed emphasis on the grade of F and now F is the FORCE to be reckoned with. The broken hearts of the lives who advocate for us has organized to diminish the gun violence to give an extension of life to our FUTURE generation. Our Carnage left many minds in a state of confusion and chaos. From state to state the emptiness of our massive loss has dealt a mighty blow to the ones we left behind. It will be forever etched in the minds and hearts of WE THE PEOPLE and OUR NATION. No actions were taken when the body count added up. It took the DEATH of small innocent children to ROCK THE CRADLE and leave an impression that guns were more important. It raised the question in many minds across the nation: Are the lives of the children and the teachers not the number one priority? In DEATH our spirits have MOVE FORWARD. We Are The State Of The Union.

Our voices will resonate a cry for CHANGE. The shriveled minds of NEGATIVITY shall follow the leaders of PROGRESSIVENESS and blossom. All in TIME the pollination of HOPE will endure the seeds of growth. We are the AMENDMENT to the PREAMBLE of a CONSTITUTION MOVING FORWARD FOR LIFE. Our souls have UNIONIZED IN DEATH. WE THE PEOPLE must UNIONIZE IN LIFE. We Are The State Of The Union.

Dedicated to the Victims of GUN VIOLENCE and any Violence which cost a HUMAN LIFE. Press On! To the Parents of Sandy Hook, Tuscon Arizona, Chicago, Sanford Florida, Kansas City, Newtown Connecticut, Littleton Colorado, Aurora, Atlanta, and every city and state which has been struck by gun violence.

Press On! President Obama, Vice President Joe Biden, and Mayor Bloomberg

I don’t drink Coffee but I did bring my hot Chocolate. I forgot you are lactose intolerance. I’ll be right back. It will only take a minute to fix you a smoothie. I promise I will not add any yogurt. Fruit on the rocks with papaya mango juice and your favorite Cinnamon-raisin bagel to boot. I haven’t forgotten your favorites. It is TIME for our Conversation and I know you have been very worried. My Cranial is protecting my brain from being bomb-rushed. My heart has been exposed to the intense pain of the Crime, the Count, the Coroner arriving at the scene of our Children’s deaths. The Candle wax is running down my hand. I am so numb from all of the Candlelight Visuals I have attended. To make sure there is nothing wrong with this hand I switched over to my left side. It didn’t matter what hand I used. I couldn’t feel the warmth or recognized whether or not the Candle had burned me.

What! Don’t let my sense of normal leak out. I am now digging into my inner heart in search of Compassion. Remember when my legs were hanging over the gurney and the doctor kept asking me could I feel any pain when he was jabbing my feet with his famous foot hammer. I was so glad to feel pain because if I didn’t there may have been a Chance that the next person or doctor I could be staring at was vascular. Something terrible happens when the veins Close down. No matter what image you try to Cast those doctors know if you are hiding something.
That blockage Causes Circulatory problems, major shutdowns, and then flatline. This mimics the behavior of our Constituents across the isles. It was absolutely horrible when the Constituents placed a war on women’s heads. It got even worse when Cantor singles out a Community of women whom he didn’t feel worthy of protection.

Out of the womb of a mother, a Child is born only to be placed on this earth for a very short period of TIME. Bull manure! As a mother, I thought I would go before my Children. They would have their whole life ahead of them. The math was for me to live out their age and for them to reach my destination and go where no man has gone before. Our Children has paid the Consequences of the wars that Carl Rove thinks he can mend. It doesn’t matter what Class you attend the opportunity was given and they failed in the end. It will take many years for the Conservatives to ascend because of their lies and Cheating has Cost them their win. It will be hard as hell for the Changing demographics to recover from the intended sins of a Complacent Congress. This is the Conservative Comfort zone. They cannot move forward and this is where the Conservatives belong.

When we touched basis you were surprised I hadn’t written a Super Bowl story. The days were passing by and I had not written a story since the 21st of January. I’m Cool. I haven’t Tweeted lately but you know I will. There is no brain freeze here. I was Concentrating on the gun violence that has played a major role and has taken a dramatic toll on the lives of many young souls. The loss of so many young lives places a suit of armor around the heart of each parent. As TIME weighs in the healing process will begin. This is what I want parents to understand. Allow yourself to reach out for your Coat. Years will pass and the pain will diminish and you now can reach out for your jacket. More years will go by and you will reach for your windbreaker as you settle up with the pain. You will be able to laugh, smile, joke about the ones who have gone before you. One day you will have more control over the tears that will flow. It will not be today.

I thought it was hard raising Children. It has been more devastating watching parents burying their Children. You have been there for your brother and showed strength and Courage, Compassion, and the greatest Comprehension that a grand guardian could ever demonstrate. I remember once you told me that you didn’t want any Children because it was hard being responsible for yourself. It made me so proud to hear you take responsibility for your life and the life that you could not afford. Toure and MHP came forth and they each addressed a very personal part of their life. I was so proud as a mother and a granny to hear them take responsibility. Never let the moment go by to acknowledge people when they have set the tone to be honored and place before the throne. Before I could put a period at the end of that sentence, Toure being Toure made me laugh and think about this. What! Somebody mother or granny place me on the toilet. No Toure! I heard you loud and clear. Smooth operator pressing the gray suit with style and grace.

Kynny, I am concerned the battles you had fought over your brother whenever someone would try to tease him of his awkwardness would wear and tear on your spirit. I thought you would get tired but you never swayed once. You delivered a very powerful message. You turn to me that day and you said to me, “Mom let not your heart be troubled I got this”. Which would be harder? Is it watching your brother struggle with developing friends and relationship? Is it watching your brother not getting the opportunity to grow up? Is it the CHALLENGE of the COMMUNITY, where I have struggled and watched the CORONER, pick up the body of one of my friends. Days down the road our Community is holding a CANDLELIGHT VISUAL and a CROSS is placed where my friend took his last breath. The next day we are headed for the CHURCH to say our final CONDOLENCES, and from there to the CEMETERY to say goodbye to my COMRADE. We must CONTINUE TO COMMUNICATE and stay on top of the gun laws.

The Hill Has Knives

by Linda Ballard

Scene: Smokelbg is staying at the Hyatt Hotel on Capitol Hill. This is her second visit to the President Inauguration Ball. She has all her accessories laid out on the bed with the exception of her dress. There is a knock at the door. Smokelbg goes to the door and it is Room Service with the DRESS… WOooooooo!

Smokelbg:

Come on in. That didn’t take long. Your name is?

Room Service:

My name is Ciara but my friends call me CeCe.

Smokelbg:

How pretty! Well, CeCe I am not about to type Room Service all the way through this story. It reminds me of going to the doctor. You are just a patient with a number. It is too cold, no identity, and we can make you as colorful as you want to be. CeCe this is the FLIP SIDE OF THE CHART. “By the Way,” this saying sounds like one the senators who clowned the CLOWN of a senator whose brother needed help in Atlanta. CeCe, this senator and the WEST of his brain was far from INTELLIGENT. Did I say WEST? Hmmm! AnyWHO! WHO! You can call me Smokelbg. Oh, look at how your eyes light up. No! I’m not the reason why The CHRONIC was produced in 1992 by DR. DRE. Hey, Dr. Dre had a second album out in 2001. Did you notice the leaf on the bottom of the album? Granny did not do her homework and promise the grand-baby she would get him some DRE BEATS. Oh, my GOD! That is definitely another story another day. Those are expensive A…. headphones.

CeCe:

What do you know about CHRONIC? You are a mess and too funny. I have never thought of myself as being colorful, exciting, or intelligent. I guess you notice…

Smokelbg:

Maybe it was because you never smoked any Hi quality marijuana or CHRONIC. People have a tendency of connecting my name with the leaf. You are colorful, exciting, and intelligent. You have a lot to offer this world. Stop being conscious of your uniqueness and use it as a strength. I have never smoked, drank, or owned a gun in my life TIME. No! I’m not a NUN. Yes, I’m a mess but it is nothing wrong with being high off of LIFE. Knowing what your quality of LIFE means to you, how it affects who you are as a person, and the people around you is so important. If you know that CeCe then you truly understand that your LIFE is connected to the LIVES of others. It will make you think twice or even more than twice. Suicide will not be on the table as an option. Your LIFE serves a greater purpose. You must keep the purpose right out in front. Take SNOOP DOGG for instance. He has evolved from a DOGG to a LION. Who knows maybe he will become SNOOP GIANT BLUNT one day. I wonder will SNOOP LION move to WASHINGTON STATE or COLORADO? Is there something bothering you CeCe?

CeCe:

I have never looked at my LIFE as though anyone would miss me. I have never thought of my LIFE affecting others. People are so busy and they are wrapped up in themselves. They just don’t have TIME to be concerned about what I think and feel. I am concern about your dress. Most people wouldn’t care or notice your dress Smokelbg. It is the quality of your dress. I hate to tell you but it is torn or should I say more like shredded. Will you have TIME to find another dress for the Ball?

Smokelbg:

No! I must wear this dress. Don’t let that bother you! I wore this dress last year to the Inaugural Ball. I know some SISTERS that are so creative they can take a glue gun, a plain dress and put your top designers to shame. It is like RENT-A-CENTER on PARADE. Pray it doesn’t rain. They will charge the numbers of their cards on a pair of shoes and make sure their shoes do not hit one rock or get any scratches because the shoes will be returned. REFUND! SISTERS will purchase a designer dress and the key to that success is no deodorant. CORN STARCH! BABY POWDER! The designers are going to be tripping on Tuesday morning. Just to keep the record straight the words SISTERS does not refer to AFRICAN AMERICAN WOMEN ONLY. OKAY! You know who you are and you HEIFERS are not LONELY. SHOUT OUT TO FRUISA! I have friends that have shown me where you can buy body enhancers. Do you need any human hair? Girlfriend you do not need to buy any expensive hair. I have friends who can show you how to shove the hair back in the bag and get your REFUND! They will sell the hair off their head. Forget about the bag.

CeCe:

For real! Your friends got some “do what you got to do skills.” Do people actually wear the same dress for the next years events? WOW! Was the dress torn when you got it?

Smokelbg:

No and No! It wasn’t torn. The ladies pride themselves on being the BELL OF THE BALL. When the photo shots are released the ladies want to make sure they do not have anything similar to last year outfit. This dress is a very special dress. It looks totally different and the color of the dress has changed. No person at the Ball will ever identify this dress as last years dress. Throughout the night the color of the dress will continue to change. I will encounter several people at the ball. I have a special list. The dress will reveal their intentions. The dress will rip and depending on the size of the tear and the color it changes into the “POPE OF HOPE” will be there to read the NONVERBAL COMMUNICATION of each person. This dress deciphers the following:
a.) People who are dressed to impress but are not sincere. FAKE!
b.) the blame gamers
c.) brusque, abrupt, brief remarks
d.) facial expression, posture, gestures
e.) attention-getting/the ones who are annoying
f.) monotone or flat speech
g.) the gullible or naively trusting
h.) smart smartypants
i.) rude, discourteous
j.) social blunders, just won’t let it go (tenacious), never-ending story,
incessant (nonstop or relentless)
k.) everything flies over their head
l.) can’t seem to recognize your face
m.) can’t read you, take you at your word (very literal),
n.) social misjudgment or misinterpretation
The “POPE OF HOPE” will INTERPRET the SOCIAL aspect of this behavior. He will determine whether or not if this behavior is UNINTENTIONAL. “The POPE OF HOPE” will also determine whether or not we are just getting PLAYED on PURPOSE by the TRICKY DIXSTERS. 🙂

CeCe:

You are going to reveal a lot in this dress. How much can this dress take? There isn’t much left of this dress.

Smokelbg:

It gives me goosebumps to tell you how this wraps itself up. The sole purpose of the dress is to show The Hill Has Knives. It will indicate who will attempt to be the biggest threat to the President in his second term. This dress takes it down to the last of the BUTT-NAKED BEHAVIORS only to reveal one’s true intentions and their true emotions. Elimination will be quick for some of the people because they have difficulty with their emotions are understanding their emotions.

CeCe:

What! You mean to tell me you will end up with no clothes on.

Smokelbg:

AB-SO-LUTE-LY! I hope I will be standing in front of the SPEAKER of THE MOUSE or the MINORITY LEADER that hates MINORITIES. Everyone will carry on as though I am the EMPRESS without CLOTHING.

CeCe:

The PAPARAZZI is going to have a field day with this.

Smokelbg:

No CeCe I will not let anything or anyone get in the way of spoiling the PRESIDENTS big moment. There will be a special headcount. This is to make sure that there will be no secret meetings anywhere. I hate to do this CeCe.

CeCe:

Do What? What is this flashlight for?

Smokelbg:

You will be just fine. I need you to blink twice and tell me what you remember.

CeCe:

Room service. I’m here with your dress.

Smokelbg:

Who do you think will be a STICK IN THE MUD or the LIFE OF THE PARTY?

What Did They Contribute?__Mental Illness

by

Hold up! Hold Up! I’m not off the grid. I am here. I am laying back in the cut chilling. It is my “cooling down process.” You will see these words again. Ah Hell Naw! Don’t be throwing MENTAL ILLNESS around like it’s a wet rag. Dude, back the Hell Up! You do not mess with my EMOTIONS nor will you play with my PASSION. You are about to see THIRTY SHADES OF BLACK. Step off and just sit BACK.

Watch out! Before you know it, parents will be fighting the battle of integration/inclusion into the classroom once again. We are going down the alley of SEPARATE SELF-CONTAINED SCHOOLS. Any child who is labeled emotionally disturbed, mentally challenged, and has a behavior disorder will be “UNABLE TO BE DISABLE IN A ZERO TOLERANCE ZONE.” The gap is closing fast and more students will be pushed into the court system based on how they are documented by the schools and their districts. Where does the BURDEN OF RESPONSIBILITY LIE to prove whether or not your child shall remain in his placement? You got it, the SCHOOLS DISTRICTS and their SCHOOLS. Who is documenting your child? I hope the parents have documentation to refute the schools/districts negative hit list. The school districts are laying the groundwork for a paper trail yeah long and Lehigh University Deep. 🙂 You can’t hide your IVIES from me. This is very important. Gun violence is closing the gap. It is a shame that whatever the schools and their districts document can reach out from the grave. The greatest injustice and disrespect is TRAYVON MARTIN’S family has to defend his rights. Before we get anything twisted I am not saying TRAYVON MARTIN had any problems with his mental processing. I take it as if he was the victim. His school records were dirty laundry to seal his coffin. What did the schools and their districts contribute?

Yeah, Baby! The schools/districts just got another powerful weapon to EXCLUDE your child with a disability out of their schools. WOW! Lock and load TIME. A child will get suspended and excessive expulsions at the drop of a dime. LOOPHOLE! The SUPREME COURT RULING 484U.S.305-HONIG V DOE laws and regulations did not define the disciplinary action of a child with a disability. If you see the words Violent, Disruptive Conduct, and Dangerous Student anywhere on paper get ready to fight. The schools decide who will be delivered to the special “DAY SCHOOLS.” Are we back to SEGREGATION in our schools again? UNILATERAL DECISIONS will be made by your districts at night behind closed doors like the 47% video. This violates the SUPREME COURT RULING 484U.S.305-HONIG V DOE It reminds me of Michigan having those emergency manager meetings to sort of kick a child to the curb. Rick Snyder, governor of Michigan, is probably doing the training session with the Superintendent of your local school districts.

Parents just won’t get a say and all the child’s right will be stripped. Parents get it together. Your child is your responsibility. Don’t go calling the police on your child, talking about he is out of control, and you can’t do anything with him/her. How old is your child? What! He is 17. What do you think the police is going to do in 17 minutes of his police report that you should have done 17 years of his/her life? Come on Parents! We must change and change the stigmas that have been placed upon our children’s heads. Keep your MONKEY A.. out of the casinos and bars. Go home and spend some quality TIME with your children. Don’t wait until your child graduates and find out they can’t read. This doesn’t look very promising for a bright future in college or anywhere else. What did you contribute?__MENTAL ILLNESS

Your child is put up under the microscope from day one to see if he/she can be mainstreamed with the so-called normal behaviors. Whatever the hell that means. The highest level of government officials did not display appropriate behaviors. Their BEHAVIORS were INTENTIONAL along with CONGRESS, WALL STREET, AIG, CORPORATE AMERICA, the OIL, AND GAS INDUSTRY.They were rough riding tough along the side of a bunch of RUTHLESS PEOPLE. Still is. Some schools/districts go through the motion and pretend; a.) We did everything we could to help your child. b) we included you in the decision-making process although we already made up our minds at the late night candlelight dinner. c.) Every TIME your child acted out we drew up several IEPs to set him/her up for failure. d.) We went back to the drawing board to figure out a way to screw your child out of his education. The idea, NOT the IDEA which includes disabling children, was to document your child as a dangerous and violent student so we can push him out of our school. e.) We don’t care where he lands as long as he is out of our hair. Parents who are staunch advocates for their children know it is all about EXCLUSION and the BUDGET CUTS BABY. Holla! For the Dollar!

You are now looking at Light V. Parkway who claims the school and their district did everything they could for your child. Yes, they went out their way and bent over backward to include your disabled child. Even though the schools and their districts did not understand your child disability, were not trained, had no intention to get trained, documented your child to the tenth degree indicating he is a danger to himself and he will cause danger to others. We have done our good deed and we are not punishing your child. We just want him the hell out of our schools and to put his education into limbo. Well, doesn’t that sounds like CONGRESS and the beef they have with the President? No Good Deed Goes Unpunished. BS! What! BACHELOR of SCIENCE? NO! MALARKY!

One of the top priority of some educational institutions is getting rid of the wounded and the refusal to accommodate children who are mentally, socially, and emotionally challenged. Why? We wanted a bigger swimming team or a better football team. Having a football team did not ensure the safety of children. Are you sure you want to put a gun in a teacher’s hand when children are now being molested by their teachers? EX-CUUUSE ME! Don’t ask. Don’t tell. What did they contribute?__MENTAL ILLNESS

Yes, there are laws or SAFEGUARD PROCEDURALS put in place to SAFEGUARD your child. There are loopholes in the laws. PARENTS should always be included in the decision-making process so their child cannot be WAREHOUSED into a SEPARATE SELF-CONTAINED SCHOOL or CLASSROOM. Who wants to STAY-PUT in a placement that is no longer SAFE for anyone as long as they have these crazy gun laws? Whose shoulders do the burden of responsibility rest upon? I know it’s VIDEO GAMES. Yeah right! Will the responsibility rest at the feet of the MENTALLY CHALLENGED?

How do we go about getting rid of your child that is MENTALLY CHALLENGE and keep them out of the mainstream? I know! School Districts will go through the back door of education. Let’s make a List.

1.) They can Create An Atmosphere of Fear around the individual, (Wayne La Pierre Syndrome).

2.)Go to due process but we can’t let the kid hang out in our schools for 45 days or more until the hearing gets started. Hey, what is the rush? Why would you have a due process hearing under Chapter 536? Wouldn’t you end up in court? Get out of here! Really! Don’t the due process hearing takes care of that? Isn’t that what the STAY-PUT PROVISION under IDEA does?

3.) Look dumb A.. we are not trying to get the kid to stay in his/her placement just in case something unforeseen comes up. We will be ready to roll the TROs (TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDERS). These restraining orders will buy TIME to keep this child out of his PLACEMENT. You get 15 days on a TRO. Our plan is to keep renewing the TROs just in case the DUE PROCESS HEARING goes pass the number of days of the hearing. The power will be placed in the Districts hands. They will become Untouchable and Invincible.

4.) Can you do that to a child? What is the Purpose of the restraining order? The purpose of the restraining order is to ALLEVIATE the RETURN of the child to school as a RESULT of the STAY-PUT PROVISION. WOW! We never did that before.

5.) Okay, we will document him/her to be the next CHARLES MANSION. CHARLIE is still on lockdown. That is dangerous as dangerous can get. The idea of documenting your child like a criminal. Whew! From School To Prison Pipeline.

6.) That will help us get around that stupid rule, “10 Day Suspension Does Not Constitute A Change In Placement”. We don’t care if it was a manifestation of the child’s disability. You see we have ways of getting around his/her behaviors. Later in life, we can come back and Permanently ruin the life of the individual with a permanent restraint to lock the person down forever.

7.) Let’s make a MOUNTAIN out of A MOLEHILL for the child’s Attorney. The Attorney will be too busy fighting the child isn’t violent, dangerous, and disruptive. In the mean TIME, the FOCUS will be lost on restoring the child’s placement. Bottom line: Do not let SEGREGATION happen again in the schools because of the gun violence. Children who are mentally challenged will be ship off. They will not stand a chance in the mainstream.

I have been advocating and teaching my son how to advocate for himself for years. I had to back it up and put on the brakes. I realize parents are advocating for the LOSS OF their CHILDREN not the LIFE OF their CHILDREN. What happen PEOPLE? It is not supposed to go down like this. Why can’t gun laws be given immediate disciplinary actions if behaviors can be given immediate disciplinary actions? The laws will kick children out of their school placements, put them in the court system, be placed in the INSTITUTION of PRISON. This is not the way to help children who are disabled. Instead of getting help through their schools, children are railroaded out of their FREE AND APPROPRIATE EDUCATION (FAPE). Are your guns more important than a CHILD’S LIFE? So are we back to the BEHEMOTH of a gun industry called the NRA who are out of step with their own members? What did they contribute?__MENTAL ILLNESS

Oh! Don’t tell me you don’t want to talk about it. It is debatable. Excuse me! It is not MOOT. Why? Why should I answer you when you want to cut me off at the knees? What do you mean it ain’t important or relevant enough and we just can’t make no decision? I’m cool. You are the one that can’t make up your mind. It is happening all over again. How many TIMES does an incident have to occur before we can make a final decision and take action? Get the Hell out of here. It is called PROBABILITY and REASONABLE EXPECTATION. How many schools have fallen victim to gun violence? SHUT UP! Whose head will be severed? Who will be made the SCAPEGOAT? Are we back to the HIGHLANDER? There can only be one Get my DRIFT. I got your DRIFT 🙂

What Did They Contribute?__Mental Illness

by Linda Ballard

Hold up! Hold Up! I’m not off the grid. I am here. I am laying back in the cut chilling. It is my “cooling down process.” You will see these words again. Ah Hell Naw! Don’t be throwing MENTAL ILLNESS around like it’s a wet rag. Dude, back the Hell Up! You do not mess with my EMOTIONS nor will you play with my PASSION. You are about to see THIRTY SHADES OF BLACK. Step off and just sit BACK.

Watch out! Before you know it, parents will be fighting the battle of integration/inclusion into the classroom once again. We are going down the alley of SEPARATE SELF-CONTAINED SCHOOLS. Any child who is labeled emotionally disturbed, mentally challenged, and has a behavior disorder will be “UNABLE TO BE DISABLE IN A ZERO TOLERANCE ZONE.” The gap is closing fast and more students will be pushed into the court system based on how they are documented by the schools and their districts. Where does the BURDEN OF RESPONSIBILITY LIE to prove whether or not your child shall remain in his placement? You got it, the SCHOOLS DISTRICTS and their SCHOOLS. Who is documenting your child? I hope the parents have documentation to refute the schools/districts negative hit list. The school districts are laying the groundwork for a paper trail yeah long and Lehigh University Deep. 🙂 You can’t hide your IVIES from me. This is very important. Gun violence is closing the gap. It is a shame that whatever the schools and their districts document can reach out from the grave. The greatest injustice and disrespect is TRAYVON MARTIN’S family has to defend his rights. Before we get anything twisted I am not saying TRAYVON MARTIN had any problems with his mental processing. I take it as if he was the victim. His school records were dirty laundry to seal his coffin. What did the schools and their districts contribute?

Yeah, Baby! The schools/districts just got another powerful weapon to EXCLUDE your child with a disability out of their schools. WOW! Lock and load TIME. A child will get suspended and excessive expulsions at the drop of a dime. LOOPHOLE! The SUPREME COURT RULING 484U.S.305-HONIG V DOE laws and regulations did not define the disciplinary action of a child with a disability. If you see the words Violent, Disruptive Conduct, and Dangerous Student anywhere on paper get ready to fight. The schools decide who will be delivered to the special “DAY SCHOOLS.” Are we back to SEGREGATION in our schools again? UNILATERAL DECISIONS will be made by your districts at night behind closed doors like the 47% video. This violates the SUPREME COURT RULING 484U.S.305-HONIG V DOE It reminds me of Michigan having those emergency manager meetings to sort of kick a child to the curb. Rick Snyder, governor of Michigan, is probably doing the training session with the Superintendent of your local school districts.

Parents just won’t get a say and all the child’s right will be stripped. Parents get it together. Your child is your responsibility. Don’t go calling the police on your child, talking about he is out of control, and you can’t do anything with him/her. How old is your child? What! He is 17. What do you think the police is going to do in 17 minutes of his police report that you should have done 17 years of his/her life? Come on Parents! We must change and change the stigmas that have been placed upon our children’s heads. Keep your MONKEY A.. out of the casinos and bars. Go home and spend some quality TIME with your children. Don’t wait until your child graduates and find out they can’t read. This doesn’t look very promising for a bright future in college or anywhere else. What did you contribute?__MENTAL ILLNESS

Your child is put up under the microscope from day one to see if he/she can be mainstreamed with the so-called normal behaviors. Whatever the hell that means. The highest level of government officials did not display appropriate behaviors. Their BEHAVIORS were INTENTIONAL along with CONGRESS, WALL STREET, AIG, CORPORATE AMERICA, the OIL, AND GAS INDUSTRY.They were rough riding tough along the side of a bunch of RUTHLESS PEOPLE. Still is. Some schools/districts go through the motion and pretend; a.) We did everything we could to help your child. b) we included you in the decision-making process although we already made up our minds at the late night candlelight dinner. c.) Every TIME your child acted out we drew up several IEPs to set him/her up for failure. d.) We went back to the drawing board to figure out a way to screw your child out of his education. The idea, NOT the IDEA which includes disabling children, was to document your child as a dangerous and violent student so we can push him out of our school. e.) We don’t care where he lands as long as he is out of our hair. Parents who are staunch advocates for their children know it is all about EXCLUSION and the BUDGET CUTS BABY. Holla! For the Dollar!

You are now looking at Light V. Parkway who claims the school and their district did everything they could for your child. Yes, they went out their way and bent over backward to include your disabled child. Even though the schools and their districts did not understand your child disability, were not trained, had no intention to get trained, documented your child to the tenth degree indicating he is a danger to himself and he will cause danger to others. We have done our good deed and we are not punishing your child. We just want him the hell out of our schools and to put his education into limbo. Well, doesn’t that sounds like CONGRESS and the beef they have with the President? No Good Deed Goes Unpunished. BS! What! BACHELOR of SCIENCE? NO! MALARKY!

One of the top priority of some educational institutions is getting rid of the wounded and the refusal to accommodate children who are mentally, socially, and emotionally challenged. Why? We wanted a bigger swimming team or a better football team. Having a football team did not ensure the safety of children. Are you sure you want to put a gun in a teacher’s hand when children are now being molested by their teachers? EX-CUUUSE ME! Don’t ask. Don’t tell. What did they contribute?__MENTAL ILLNESS

Yes, there are laws or SAFEGUARD PROCEDURALS put in place to SAFEGUARD your child. There are loopholes in the laws. PARENTS should always be included in the decision-making process so their child cannot be WAREHOUSED into a SEPARATE SELF-CONTAINED SCHOOL or CLASSROOM. Who wants to STAY-PUT in a placement that is no longer SAFE for anyone as long as they have these crazy gun laws? Whose shoulders do the burden of responsibility rest upon? I know it’s VIDEO GAMES. Yeah right! Will the responsibility rest at the feet of the MENTALLY CHALLENGED?

How do we go about getting rid of your child that is MENTALLY CHALLENGE and keep them out of the mainstream? I know! School Districts will go through the back door of education. Let’s make a List.

1.) They can Create An Atmosphere of Fear around the individual, (Wayne La Pierre Syndrome).

2.)Go to due process but we can’t let the kid hang out in our schools for 45 days or more until the hearing gets started. Hey, what is the rush? Why would you have a due process hearing under Chapter 536? Wouldn’t you end up in court? Get out of here! Really! Don’t the due process hearing takes care of that? Isn’t that what the STAY-PUT PROVISION under IDEA does?

3.) Look dumb A.. we are not trying to get the kid to stay in his/her placement just in case something unforeseen comes up. We will be ready to roll the TROs (TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDERS). These restraining orders will buy TIME to keep this child out of his PLACEMENT. You get 15 days on a TRO. Our plan is to keep renewing the TROs just in case the DUE PROCESS HEARING goes pass the number of days of the hearing. The power will be placed in the Districts hands. They will become Untouchable and Invincible.

4.) Can you do that to a child? What is the Purpose of the restraining order? The purpose of the restraining order is to ALLEVIATE the RETURN of the child to school as a RESULT of the STAY-PUT PROVISION. WOW! We never did that before.

5.) Okay, we will document him/her to be the next CHARLES MANSION. CHARLIE is still on lockdown. That is dangerous as dangerous can get. The idea of documenting your child like a criminal. Whew! From School To Prison Pipeline.

6.) That will help us get around that stupid rule, “10 Day Suspension Does Not Constitute A Change In Placement”. We don’t care if it was a manifestation of the child’s disability. You see we have ways of getting around his/her behaviors. Later in life, we can come back and Permanently ruin the life of the individual with a permanent restraint to lock the person down forever.

7.) Let’s make a MOUNTAIN out of A MOLEHILL for the child’s Attorney. The Attorney will be too busy fighting the child isn’t violent, dangerous, and disruptive. In the mean TIME, the FOCUS will be lost on restoring the child’s placement. Bottom line: Do not let SEGREGATION happen again in the schools because of the gun violence. Children who are mentally challenged will be ship off. They will not stand a chance in the mainstream.

I have been advocating and teaching my son how to advocate for himself for years. I had to back it up and put on the brakes. I realize parents are advocating for the LOSS OF their CHILDREN not the LIFE OF their CHILDREN. What happen PEOPLE? It is not supposed to go down like this. Why can’t gun laws be given immediate disciplinary actions if behaviors can be given immediate disciplinary actions? The laws will kick children out of their school placements, put them in the court system, be placed in the INSTITUTION of PRISON. This is not the way to help children who are disabled. Instead of getting help through their schools, children are railroaded out of their FREE AND APPROPRIATE EDUCATION (FAPE). Are your guns more important than a CHILD’S LIFE? So are we back to the BEHEMOTH of a gun industry called the NRA who are out of step with their own members? What did they contribute?__MENTAL ILLNESS

Painted Me As The Enemy

by Linda Ballard

Why would I stick my neck out?
Should I bother to come to your aid?
Has there ever been any doubt?
We both receive minimum wage.

Unless you lied and have deceived me.
We are down to the LILY LEDBETTER FAIR PAY ACT.
The Company thought it would be easy.
They allow “no friends” contract.

Why am I receiving the cold shoulder?
Is there something you wish to tell?
Your LIES turned into huge boulders.
Will this send us straight to hell?

Do you understand why they chose you?
Our lives share a bonded pack.
I hope you realize whatever you do.
We are expendable and we’ll both get jacked.

Who really does have a spine?
Here lies the sword of the COMPANY’S mighty wedge?
What did the policies and procedures define?
I’ll be d..n! It’s GROVER NORQUIST pledge.

Did you read all of the reason?
JOHN BOEHNER would think he has the upper hand.
This list is an act of treason.
It was designed so we couldn’t take a stand.

A lot of hard work hours was put in.
Companies use all sorts of dirty tricks.
Turning you against me was a nasty sin.
They found your weakness so they thought they were slick.

The roads we have travel were long, hard, and rough.
We bumped heads, compromised, and discard what we didn’t need.
Anything that appears easy might get sort of tough.
A natural ingredient to help us both succeed.

The memories we have shared, Companies will try to strip away.
For years we have guarded one another against danger.
It is TIME to face off and get through this day.
Look very close. Do you think I am a stranger?

When we started work here years ago.
Our families broke bread together.
The money we made was not enough dough.
We made it and survive the stormy weather.

The Company promised you one hell of a deal.
An offer you just couldn’t resist.
After listening, you didn’t like their diabolical spill.
The plan ceased to exist.

Would you like to tell me more?
You thought there was a remedy.
The policy is called OPEN DOOR.
They PAINTED ME AS THE ENEMY.

ADVISORY ALERT:
Who is carrying 30 silver pieces around?
If you hear a jingle jangle stay away from this clown.
I don’t think you know what is about to go down.
Look over your shoulders, JUDAS is the one with the frown.
Make sure the FISCAL CURVE agreement is safe and sound. 🙂
