Sadly my very first thought upon reading the headline was “what did they know about Hillary?”
Let us honor the sisters, put our turbulent feelings aside for just a moment, and pray as we have been taught by Our Lord Himself.
It tickles yet saddens me that so many freepers are so clueless about the black race ....even in Texas.....that they must qualify generalizations about black crime with the customary refrain that some tiny subgroup of whites must be just as bad as black violent criminals who btw as only 12 percent of the country account for a majority of the violent crime
Holmes county is 85 percent black.....is there a chance that maybe some crazed white meth or oxy head did this?.....yeah.....but it ain’t likely odds wise
And Holmes county Mississippi ain’t Appalachia or Texas.....the few whites there are better behaved....they are way outnumbered and they know it....it’s like the Transvaal just hotter
This crime has shocked the community ....blacks killing each other over stupid things is common....this is not
It reminds me of the east Harlem case 40 years ago where the same ilk turned themselves in when they found the Five Families were looking for them...
One caveat
Both nuns were nurse practitioners
Which makes me wonder ....whites would be more suspect in a narcotics robbery because in Mississippi accredited nurse practitioners with a DEA number can prescribe....and them running a free clinic they would be more likely to dole out meds than write scripts
But still the local demographics...
I doubt they would keep any drugs except samples of antibiotics at their clinic...
My post was in response to be lectured offhandedly because I figured black perps in a black county.....85%
So I pondered reasons it could being white killers just to be sweet and non racist
They were nurse practitioners working mostly by themselves at a free clinic and in the state of Mississippi APNs with a DEA number can prescribe narcotics
And given that they ran a free clinic where often the staff supplies the meds as well....after all it’s a charity clinic ....then at least in my view they might very well have all manner of meds on hand
I know MDs sure do....I’ve got several in my extended family....and I used to get Darvon from my uncle for sports injuries
The killers came to their house for a reason
Stinkpot could be right and I’ll have to eat crow
This is a major disturbing crime in that tiny hamlet I can promise that
Folks will talk about it still in 50 years like the Mona Biddy case in 1970 or so in Jackson an hour south where I’m from
Who would play the part of the five families in Holmes Country?
I don’t think NB Forrest is around no mo.
Don’t you dare tell me what I feel in my heart. Don’t you dare tell me what I should feel. Keep it to yourself.
As for "keep it to yourself" --- hey, this is Free Repulic. It's a discussion forum. We don't come here to keep things to ourselves!..... as long as we keep it civil.
The sisters have asked us to pray for the perpetrators. We could honor the slain nuns and their Lord by doing just that.
I kept it civil.
I never”heard” the Sisters to ask us to pray for their perps. Did you?
"SCN [Sisters of Charity of Nazareth] President St. Susan Gatz asks that all 'pray in gratitude for the precious lives of Sisters Paula and Margaret
they served the poor so well. Because we are gospel women, please also pray for the perpetrators.'"
It did not say what was in the good Sisters’ minds before they were murdered. That is all I am saying. They are married to Our Lord, but they are human, too.
Now, God bless you. Just do not speak about what I am thinking. Okay? I do have a brain that the Good Lord gave me.
I am calling a truce on my part. If you wish to keep it up, I will not respond.
The suspects are probably not smart enough to know
the nurses would not have drugs in the house.
Precious few peckerwoods left there
Is Blackhawk in Holmes?
I am 99.99% sure it is. Haven’t been that way in some time,
