ROFLMAO!!!

There is humor AND truth in your statement.

I have become a surrogate dad to two hispanic kids in Brooklyn.

The father they did have beat them and made them sleep in the hallways if he was in a bad mood and worse.

The mother and they are away from him now and as he was threatening her, I made it understood if he harmed them he would run into several Italian men ONCE.

And it would be the last time he ran into anybody.

It’s TWO YEARS and I’m finally getting a grip on them and the ship is turning around.

I had to be VERY TOUGH with them at time and then showed that i cared at other times.

I still wouldn’t trust then with a 20 in the middle of the room and me not there :)

But at least they’re going to school now and one is actually doing very well. No more shoplifting, no more being nasty to mom.

There IS a lot of work to be done in this country and this WAS a waste of a life and a life of service.

I AM SORRY.

I cannot change my opinion to make folks here who are UTTERLY misguided in what martyrdom is, happy.

Reminds me an Hispanic kid from the apt complex that built a fort behind the shed on my rental property. Can’t blame him, all kids should have a fort/clubhouse. But he did break into my shed, worked pretty hard to do it and didn’t know how it happened when I caught him there. Any way I let him keep his fort but checked the shed more often. To distract him, I put a dollar bill under one of the rocks in his fort. After a few days of me checking, the bill was gone but every rock was moved in the back yard. Bet he is still turning over rocks.......................

Yeah I just can’t figure out why you would have to go around to the other side of the world to get shot full of arrows, probably skinned and eaten by savages when you can get that done in Detroit. Think of how much jet A fuel he could have saved. He Also wouldn’t have had to eat curry.
