Parents are
not supposed to bury their children, so they tell us. Then why did 173 mourning’s occur for their
lost ones so far this year?
The gun and
the bullet on their own are harmless, but placed in the hands of a depraved lunatic
is another story. Once upon a time it
was just fists thrown that did the damage and in most cases healing occurred. As man progressed within the Stone-Age and
the want and needs for expansion happened, tools were created and in-turn they were
used inflect pain and suffering as well.
Then we
reach today, killing by gun and knife are common everyday practice by the
violent segment of our disassociated society. Even our communication skills are worst today
than a cave man using smoke signals! It
seems anger and hate abound!
Life it
seems is just a bunch of reactions, planning is not a front runner in most
minds. Proactivity is required
especially in this violent world that has evolved. Those that wish to ignore the possibilities
and the political ramifications are a major contributor to the problems.
Education
must admit that proactive solutions are the answer and not an admission of a
threat concern. It makes common sense to
take precautions because of gun or bombs threats. This is now everyday life, just like the “horseless
carriage”, we did get rid of the man walking in front of the car with a red
flag, did we not?
Start
talking to those that have the experience and wherewithal to assist in the
necessary solutions. Listening is an
art, utilizing the information takes it seems, a little longer!

British Police and Crime Commissioners have neither made Police forces run better nor made the public safer. Complete waste of time, effort and money!
Why on God’s green earth would you elect someone that has no knowledge of what the job entails or the commonsense to even try to understand the situation? It is like playing Fantasy Football and not understood the reality of the game in the first place!
Britain’s Daily Mail newspaper reports, “'We're a £100m waste of money': Top crime tsar's withering report on own colleagues for 'failing to cut crime or build public confidence, says Bob Jones, Police and Crime Commissioner for the West Midlands”
“Jones has confessed that in their first
year in charge of police forces, Police and Crime Commissioners have neither
made them run better nor made the public safer.
The Labour PCC for the West Midlands said their planning was
vague and that many of this new breed of politicians, who earn up to £100,000,
had remained generally unknown rather than building public confidence.
In a withering assessment published to coincide with the first
anniversary of the PCCs’ election, Mr. Jones gave the flagship law and order
reform ‘four out of ten’ overall and condemned it as ‘£100million spent so far on making police accountability less
effective’.
His comments provoked anger from Policing Minister Damian Green,
who said: ‘Across the country, Police and Crime Commissioners are driving
reform and holding their forces to account. And it’s the public who’ll decide
how well they’ve performed - at the ballot box.’
In his ‘school report’, Mr. Jones gave PCCs three out of ten for
cutting crime, claiming the rate is now, at best, flat, and at worst rising
again after years of decline.
This is the
same situation that faces America and most civilized countries of the world,
when you mix politicians and those that have fully trained in law enforcement
their whole life. It is Oil and Water! The so called “Do Gooders” who have not one inkling of
community policing or moral that is required to balance the good, bad and ugly
of human life!
The Mayor's and council/commissioners are always worried about re-election and not what the real issue of the day is.
The Daily Mail goes on:
Since the election PCCs have become
embroiled in a series of scandals, including:
·Kent’s independent
crime tsar Ann Barnes appointed Paris Brown as the first ‘youth commissioner’
without carrying out basic checks that would have revealed that the teenager
had made offensive comments online.
·Cumbria’s Tory PCC
Richard Rhodes took two chauffeur-driven trips to meetings, costing taxpayers
£700, and when the news was leaked to a local paper, the whistleblower was
arrested.
·PCCs in Gwent and
Lincolnshire forced out their chief constables. In each force only one person
applied to take over the top job.
·At least a dozen PCCs
handed out well-paid deputy roles to friends and allies without advertising
them.
·Four PCCs have
already been investigated by the Independent Police Complaints Commission for
alleged criminal misconduct. Lancashire’s Clive Grunshaw is facing charges,
while Durham’s Ron Hogg is still under investigation.
·Several PCCs have
caused controversy over expenses. Just this week it emerged that Norfolk’s
Stephen Bett had declared his home as his place of work, allowing him to claim
mileage for driving to the force HQ. He has agreed to repay £3,000.
You might say, typical governmental wasters who were elected by the unknowing populous. Believe it or not the election only gleaned 15% of the people to come out and vote on this issue, meaning 85% could not care less!
Let the professionals that were hired, do their job and remove the political
interference forthwith! Sir Robert Peel’s original policing manifesto was and is totally correct still to this day.
Keep the Tossers out or throw them in jail for meddling in matters that they have no idea how to resolve. In fact, it is their meddling that is the crime as it always comes down to extracting something that benefits them in one way or another. Leaving the poor electorate to suffer, whilst they line their pockets, no matter what it takes!
Typhoon Haiyan feared to have killed TEN THOUSAND Filipinos as Vietnam and China now prepare for the worst. Fox News Update: http://www.foxnews.com/world/2013/11/10/strongest-typhoon-year-hits-philippines/ Take the latest storm that just struck the Philippines, it has left hundreds of thousands homeless and even ten thousand dead! A situation that will take years to resolve.
It does not have to!
Most of us will never know or feel the desperation of being displaced by a disaster, in losing our homes, goods, chattels and the shear enormity of having lost everything is mind boggling.
Imagine being in the eye of the storm, tornado, earthquake, flooding, fire or a catastrophic terror attack, never being able to go back to the life you had, losing your home and all that you possess. It is happening more and more and empathy is not enough!
No matter
what the situation, the Fear Factor has to be reduced and a Comfort
Zone established for all to be able to move forward.
Tracometry People developed a program to bring
Disaster Readiness to an acceptable level and integrate the necessary elements
to increase the comfort zone of housing, social comfort and employment to
communities. This includes
manufacturing, erecting housing, employing local labor within days and hours of
a disaster.
The uniqueness of our Disaster
Readiness Housing Solution is simple and logical. When disaster strikes, no matter what type,
housing is a priority, bringing the comfort of a personal roof over the
displaced individual’s heads. This alleviates
so many other complex issues and brings back a substantial comfort zone.
The Emergency Housing, which can be permanent or short term is a unique situation as CASTLE – FT Structure USA, the Disaster Readiness Housing manufacturing plant is housed in what we
call a Factory in a Box, which can
produce approximately 50 Disaster Readiness Housing units per week. Using local labor it is giving employment to those that need it and gives them a feeling of helping the community in its time of need.
The Disaster
Readiness Solution is a proactive method that effectively increases the
value of the emergency support and leaves a residual value in the needed housing.
