I'M SO TIRED OF YOU SHOOTING ME!
|
Posted By: MIISRAEL Bride on December 20, 2008 I’M SO TIRED OF YOU SHOOTING ME! I am including all of you to sending a shout out to our communities. Everyday, every hour, and in almost every city of town we are hacked up to our neck with the news stories of robberies, youth murders violent shootings between couples, drive-bys that take away and injure our innocent children with stray bullets. I have to say, I am sick of it! It’s sad too because this is a sense of committing genocide. I’m so tired of you shooting me! Black on Black crime is senseless violence and senseless killings like these are never justifiable! Murder is wrong, even for reasons of revenge, payback, gang related or jealously. When the community is involved, it involves me I am become my own neighbor. The best solution is to convince ourselves that we are tired of it; and if that’s means me having to tell on the ones that are doing these things, it’s a beginning. There are many ways to keep one confidential and if you are hiding the fact you know of someone who has committed a violent crime you are shooting me as well. If the violence is to stop, it has start with action. If the action is NOT put in motion, it will end with another shooting of me. How many more lives will go have unfinished WHERE someone’s life is taken?-- Innocent by standers just like you and me are shouting out… “I’m so tired of YOU shooting ME!

Thanks Marta, we need those elements, but we need action too. We must begin with reporting criminal activity. Neighborhood watches and other watching any suspcious activity need to be reintroduced and put back in our communities. It starts with one individual. Lots of love, patience, and knowlege gives us ways to start acting. Thanks again.

i have always believed and will always believe that if we have our own businesses and create our own income, then the need for crime and family problems will go down. i'm working now with a business team that believes the same thing. our business model video is www.ltdteam.com (id '8093482', password 'guest'). we can't rely on one job for our finances as the current economy is proving right now.

Clark your comment are full of the same feelings I'm experiencing along with others here. We are tired sick of it! We do need prayers many of much of them. I am praying. This I feel are the patience elements we need, God is still in control. I appreciate your response. Thank you..

Misrael, who's in control? God? That's what's wrong w/us -- we won't step up and be the change we seek b/c we rely on our imaginary friends to be in "control". If god is managing he needs to be replaced. Saturday, December 20th 2008 at 2:00PM |

Yes, Craig God is still in control. I did say that ...so often we get upset, I realize He has everything in all under his direction. We do have to put full trust in him and let it remain with him. Thank you Craig, encouragement is always necessary in times of ungodly things.

I sometimes express a moment, with emotions I am not without feelings. In writing this blog, I was tired of seeing such wicked things. I was and still trust in God. I am never doubting he is in control. This was my rebuking of these things! So that God's power is prevailed over all. Standing in prayers, and in seeking him I am asking prayers from all of you. Prayers are needed, and prayer changes all things. This is a peaceful action and action of love for mankind because I don't like seeing what's happening. A element of love is bringing peace in loving our neighbors. We must remember elements of love.
