A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE BEEN REQUESTING
SOME NEW TOPICS ON MY EDITORIAL PAGE
SO HERE IT GOES:
By GUMS

FIRST A REAL SHORT ITEM

A good friend who does a lot of work on my house, a guy named "Lurch", and I were coming down 49th Street in St.Pete a while back. He was in his truck and I was in mine. We had stopped at a red light and as the light turned green we saw the most stupid guy on a bike we have ever seen. This guy took off like he had a bat up his ass---I mean he was hittin 60 in first gear, not only did he not have any type shirt on, he was wearing very short shorts. This in itself is no big thing. This jerk wasn't wearing any type of footwear at all. Not boots, not sandals, not even flip flops! That's right folks, this genius was riding "barefoot"! I would love to be around when he steps on a lit cigarette butt or piece of glass. I guess just because ya got your first Harley ya don't have to be smart.

NOW HERE IS A WAY TO GIVE US TAXPAYERS A BREAK

The first thing that I have come up with is a way to put more money into taxpayers pockets. We could also cut the States debts by about 50% if we started doing this. What is this money making plan ya ask? Let's start taxing all the churches in the state (or all over the U S A for that matter). Now before all you right wing Christian nuts get your balls in a uproar, let me explain. I wouldn't tax the building that any church holds their religious services in. I would however tax the hell out of all the other property that churches own. In case you haven't noticed, churches have been buying up property all over this country and paying no taxes on any of it. They have schools--tax free, they have apartment complexes--tax free, they own shopping centers--tax free, they own thrift stores--tax free, they hold fairs and carnivals--tax free, they have bingo nights--tax free and the list goes on forever. We the citizens are getting screwed by all our local churches. Who do you think picks up the tab for all this tax exempt property and events? We the real tax payer do. Why the hell is a minister's salary tax exempt? Ministers have been screwing their flocks since churches started. They get free housing, a free car (most of the time), free house keeping, free food and still have the balls to charge you to do a wedding or funeral. What the hell do they even get a pay check for anyway? With all the church property standing idle most all week, why don't the churches use the buildings for a good cause during the week? If you have ever been inside one of the larger churches or temples, the first thing you will see is the fact that they are worth many, many millions of dollars. Most all of them look more like a King's palace than a church. That's right, all built tax free on tax free land and everything they buy from mops and buckets to million dollar art works inside are all tax free. A church pays no tax on anything it buys. The time has come to stop this free lunch at the taxpayers expense. Churches must start paying their fair share of taxes on all land, buildings (not used for religious services), and everything they buy or own. People who go to church services need to stop giving their hard earned money to these bottomless money pits. Quit volunteering at these places of greed and donate your time and money to some cause that really helps people.

OK---NEXT ITEM

Now here is one that will frost your balls---Seems this guy, his wife and their little three year old brat were on an Air Tran flight to Boston from Ft.Myers here in Florida. The plane had not even taken off yet when the little three year old brat started acting her age. Little Elly Kulesza started screaming and crying, then she started hitting her mother, Julie Kulesza, and hiding and refused to get into her seat and buckle up. There were 112 passengers watching this little kid act like the brat she is. The flight attendants ask the mother, Julie, to get her brat (my words not the flight attendants) into her seat and buckle up as the federal law requires before any take off. The Federal law requires all children over the age of two to be in a seat of their own and buckled up before a plane can take off, just like an adult. The plane was already fifteen minutes late for taking off because of this little bitch. Rather than hold up the plane and the other 112 passengers any longer, the flight crew threw all three of the Kulesza's off the plane. The mother Julie, being the lousy parrent that she is, made the statement and I quote, "We weren't given an opportunity to hold her, console her or anything". Why don't ya try spanking the little bitches ass for her? Maybe she would behave in public then. Even though the airline gave the family (if ya can call it that) a complete refund, the Kulesza's said they will never fly that airline again! Well that sure sounds like good news for the airline and all the passengers. They won't have to put up with a spoiled little bitch any more. I really think some child service agency should look into the parents of this little brat. Gerry and Julie Kulesza sure don't know how to make their brat behave while in public that's for sure. I guess this is just one little monster that will now disrupt other airlines. Maybe the airlines should put their names on a list and not let them on any flight ever again------And someone should warm that little Elly Kulesza's ass for her!

NEXT ITEM

When I read this item, I think I have found a politician who will stand up and speak his mind and let the chips fall where they may. Seems a bunch of "Blacks" in Virginia have requested an apology by the state to the descendants of slaves. That's right, they want Virginia to say "were sorry for having slavery in our state over a hundred years ago". Now enter a true "tell it like it is" legislator. Republican delegate Frank D. Hargrove, in comments published Tuesday in The Daily Progress of Charlottesville, Va., said slavery ended nearly 140 years ago with the Civil War and added: "I personally think that our black citizens should get over it." RIGHT ON BROTHER HARGROVE!!! It's about time a legislator stood up and said what all Americans are thinking privately at home. The newspaper also quoted the 79-year-old lawmaker as saying: "Are we going to force the Jews to apologize for killing Christ?" Damn the more I hear about this legislator, the more I like him. Hell I never owned any slaves and I'll be damned if I would say I'm sorry for anything that happened over a hundred years before I was even born. "When somebody tells me I should just get over slavery, I can only express my emotion by projecting that I am appalled, absolutely appalled," said Delegate Dwight C. Jones, head of the Legislative Black Caucus. Damn I wonder if anyone ask the "White Caucus" how they feel about this issue? Shit----that's right, ya can't have a "White Caucus", that would be racist! I completely agree with Mr. Hargrove, people's skin is just to thin nowday's. No matter what one says nowday's, someone will piss their pants about it cause ya have hurt their piss ass feelings. Freedom of speech is going down the tubes just cause someone doesn't like what ya say----Screw them all and say what ya want----this is AMERICA not some Communist country!

HERE IS ONE THAT PISSES ME OFF IN A BIG WAY!!!

Read this and see why I say we should shoot to kill all wet backs, men,women and children sneaking across the Mexican border: Amid protests and a flurry of last-minute efforts by congressmen, two border patrol agents, Jose Alonso Compean and Ignacio Ramos, are scheduled today to begin long prison sentences for their actions in the shooting and wounding of a Mexican drug smuggler who was granted full immunity to testify against them. The two agents who were only doing their job. Osbaldo Aldrete-Davila, was an illegal alien, and they (the border guards) were unaware he had about 750 pounds of marijuana in his van. They fired at someone they believed had a weapon. He (the wetback sneaking across our border) resisted their commands, assaulted one of the officers and then wheeled around and pointed something at them. Logic would say it would be a weapon. I think they should have emptied their clips in him and reloaded and did it again screw the illegal!!! A guy named TJ Bonner, president of the National Border Patrol Council a union representing 1,500 agents, argued failure to report the discharge of a firearm is an administrative offense that, at the most, merits a five-day suspension. "How that translates into 11- and 12-year prison terms is beyond me. Now this is the part that will piss ya off more than any other part (except the guards going to prison for doing their jobs)so are ya ready for this? The Department of Homeland Security sent an investigator to Mexico to offer the smuggler, Aldrete-Davila, full immunity in exchange for his testimony against the agents. Now, Aldrete-Davila is suing the U.S. Border Patrol for $5 million for allegedly violating his civil rights. That's right---you are caught sneaking in to the USA with 750 pounds of dope, you assault the border guards then run back across the border and the assholes running our government offer the smuggler full immunity. Our own government won't stand behind our guards who are sworn to protect this country. Bonner said Ramos and Compean will be incarcerated at the El Paso jail this week then be moved to separate low-security federal prisons. He's concerned about their safety. President Bush has received a letter about the case from more than 50 Congress members, and yesterday an online petition by Grassfire.org with more than 225,000 signatures calling for a presidential pardon was delivered to the White House. Ramos is an eight-year veteran of the U.S. Naval Reserve and a former nominee for Border Patrol Agent of the Year. According to the agents, Ramos responded Feb. 17, 2005, to a request for back-up from Compean, who noticed a suspicious van near the levee road along the Rio Grande River near the Texas town of Fabens, about 40 miles east of El Paso. A third agent also joined the pursuit. Aldrete-Davila stopped the van on a levee, jumped out and started running toward the river. When he reached the other side of the levee, he was met by Compean who had anticipated the smuggler's attempt to get back to Mexico. "We both yelled out for him to stop, but he wouldn't stop, and he just kept running," Ramos told California's Inland Valley Daily Bulletin. "At some point during the time where I'm crossing the canal, I hear shots being fired," Ramos said. "Later, I see Compean on the ground, but I keep running after the smuggler." At that point, Ramos said, Aldrete-Davila turned toward him, pointing what looked like a gun. "I shot," Ramos said. "But I didn't think he was hit, because he kept running into the brush and then disappeared into it. Later, we all watched as he jumped into a van waiting for him. He seemed fine. It didn't look like he had been hit at all." The U.S. government filed charges against Ramos and Compean after giving full immunity to Aldrete-Davila and paying for his medical treatment at an El Paso hospital.I am sure there is a lot more to this story than I have space for here. I have read that the smuggler, Aldrete-Davila, was arrested a short while ago with another van full of drugs. This piece of shit should have never been arrested, he should be taken into the desert, striped of all his clothes and with no food and water, let him die a slow painfull death. This is becoming a sad country when our government, even the president, turns it's back on our guards and stick's up for the asshole smuggler!! Then let him sue us for five million dollars!
