Here is to a year with ZERO deaths of those in DJJ custody.
Greath inspiration---but when have you known government to actually accomplish such an attainable goal?
Now it's DCF turn.
Under rightwingers, the government will fail. That is their goal.
I disagree with the comment about the "rightwingers." Although it is true that it is getting harder and harder to see the differences between the two parties (isn't Mitt just another Obama?), it is the ignorant leftist masses who, if they know anything about history, are ignoring it. A large segment of the leftist "protesters" can't speak, think, or even articulate why they are there---except for the stipends they get from ACORN--Obama's front program--or from George S. They don't even understand that the word "progressive" originates from early Communist theory. Let's see, what will this country look like when reaches the socialist tipping point that is the goal of our liberal/Marxists administration? Well, for one thing, we won't be able to celebrate "diversity" anymore. Read about the Chinese pom--what happened? Virtually overnight, every shop and business was indistinguishable from the other--you could walk down the streets and literally not know where you were--no advertising, no distinguishing characteristics---just very large banners of Mao. Let's see, how many millions of people will starve under a fledgling socialist/communist agenda? Look at history, people. The poorest will become poorer. Look at Russia, a now no-body in the world arena, with a reduced life-expectancy, rampant unemployment, and as one journlist put it, the result of years of the decaying effects of brutally mind-numbing communism." That's where we are heading--mediocrity, an uneducated populace that is unable to care for itself (that is what government is for?--No.), and no incentive for hard work, ethics,morality, etc. We are already seeing this in the crassness of the media and the inability of our people to answer even the most basic of questions (in surveys). For example, "educated" people were asked, "How many Jewish states are there in the world?" "47? 31? none? were some of the answers.
The answer is very meaningful, particularly if you recognize what is taking place in Iran right now--there is ONE Jewish state--it is called Israel (however, if you live in the Middle East, you will not aee Israel on the map). People will asked, "what does "hamas" mean? (This is the ME word for "zealot--also refers to terrorism). Answers? "Don't know, man." or "its that stuff that they make from beans"--referring to hummus. Hopefully, this will be food for thought--I leanred a long time ago that extreme or even moderate liberals are so impaired in their thinking that they can't tolerate even the thought of considering an idea contrary to their ingrained, but unsubstantiated, perspectives.
What does this have to do with Juvenile Justice?
When is Kaplan and his minions going to be held accountable?
Juvenile Justice is just another arm of government and will work just as government does. We need less governemnt--I dont care if you dress it up with the private sleaze guys or the "public sevants" If you are not paying attentionto what is occurring in this country, you are not paying attention to juvenile justice. And yes, where HAVE the minions gone---into hding perhaps?
The "Rightwing" response.....kind of confirms their mentality. I mean...REALLY? EEEAAAASSSYYYY Dude. Grab a brew, put down Atlas Shrugged, and relax. In reality, we all probably want the same thing from DJJ....accountability, consistency,honesty, transparency and a true desire to help those who are on the wrong path. All the shifting/hiding of referrals,illegal hiring practices and cutting of programs/positions matters little if we don't have a positive influence on those we serve. We are just "passing the buck" right now. You either pay now...or pay later (the taxpayers).Anyone who believes that juvenile crime has declined, in this troubled time, is just bat-crap crazy.
