I'm 39 years old and still feel like my mother would backhand me if I looked at her the wrong way! I'm not advocating beating children but that's what is wrong with kids these days - they need a good a$$ beatin'!

No need for the do gooders to get all uptight ... I said I wasn't for child abuse but look at society today. CHILDREN have the upperhand in every situation.

I bet if that punk who killed the cop has his a$$ beat a couple times by a father figure he wouldn't be sitting in jail now and 3 people would be alive!

If this girl was me - I would have gotten my butt beat for what I did then I would have another one comin' for callin' the cops!  

Spare the rod and mess up the child!! So I say if a good a$% beatin is what's needed give it to them I know I do!!!

The law is very warped.  Murderers get 3 days and people who spank their kids get a year.  'Nuff said.

The law is very warped.  Murderers get 3 days and people who spank their kids get a year.  'Nuff said.

I certainly do not believe it's okay to beat a child but this article stats this was just a spanking. If it was a spanking this is a nice example of why there are so many out of control children today. Either the parents don't want to be parents or they do their best to be, and get arrested.

I am the girls mother in this story. Since the media is leaving out the details of the story I feel it is my duty to make the public aware of the truth in this case. This man is a child abuser, a wife abuser. He has a history of child and spousal abuse, as well as animal abuse.
What you aren't being told by the media is how he left bruises and his hand prints on her thigh for over 8 days before they finally began to fade away! You aren't being told how the police officer went and called the dept. of children's services himself, the school nurse as well. You aren't being told how my daughter couldn't sit due to pain, she was limping, and her pants touching her leg was very painful for her.
You aren't being told that she was sitting in the floor and 'daddy' sat on top of her and hit her at least 20-30 times!
You aren't being told by the media that this father accused said daughter of doing this to herself; that she was 'coming after him'!!
Typical response of an abuser!
I want the world to know, the people to know the truth.
This man was found guilty of DOMESTIC ASSAULT here. Some of you can't get past the word spanking. This word is being used for a knee jerk reaction from the public!
Think before you write such horrible things about my daughter.
She is the innocent victim here and 2 days in jail is nowhere near enough time for this jerk off!

To Protecting mother:

Nobody is saying horrible things about your daughter.  They are simply reacting to what the story said above.  Your story is much more detailed and im sure they will react different now.  Im sure they will all agree with me when I say that child abuse is wrong and it seems that nobody is condoning child abuse....they are simply saying that if it was a spanking and just that then they see nothing wrong.

Do you people realize that BEATING a child to the point where there are bruises & lacerations for more than a week is MUCH MORE THAN A SPANKING!! Get your FACTS before you print an article, IREPORT.

Do you *** realize that this man beat his ex-wife for years? Do you realize they used the word "spank" just to get a rise out of you? GET YOUR FACTS people!

The word Spanking is very misleading. You expect us to believe you, when the media never lies? Honey, I hope he takes those children away from you!

"The police officer went and called the dept. of children's services himself, the school nurse as well."

They certainly wouldnt be calling CPS if it was just a spanking. Shame on you ireport for not even getting the right story.

You aren't being told that she was sitting in the floor and 'daddy' sat on top of her and hit her at least 20-30 times!
You aren't being told by the media that this father accused said daughter of doing this to herself; that she was 'coming after him'!!

Atleast the child is ok.....after much pain however!  Why does he have visitation rights???

Atleast the child is ok.....after much pain however!  Why does he have visitation rights???

he has no visitation rights at this time.

Mildred, who are you speaking to about hoping the child is taken away from, the mother or the father?

I'm in awe at some of the reactions and words used by people....

If you've never had something like this happen to you you all have no idea how the whole truth not being out there feels.

I'm one person and I want the truth known...my child(ren) are safe with me and he has no visitation right now due to order of protection.

ok i obviously have a lot of CM friends here who know the truth.....you guys rock!

I think parents give children to much control, I am affiliated with a middle school in Memphis and hear it all the time.

Parents letting the child make decisions whether to ride the bus today or not.

The child chooses the school he or she wants to attend, even if it is putting the parents out of their way.

The child doesn't like the school lunch, so mom brings McDonalds or pizza 2-3 times a week.

A parent is suppose to know what is best for a child, we wonder why things are the way they are.

Amber:

On other websites people ARE saying horrible things about my daughter and making assumptions about her being a typical unruly teenager and that she probably deserved her 'spanking'.
My reply is a generic response across all boards today.

i feel its ok to spank your child, but not out of anger, I had plenty of whippings in my day, but it was all out of my disobedience after being warned more than once, so in this case, as protecting mother says, this father should know when and when not to spank his child,

Protecting.mother -  You’re blaming the news channel and stating the reports read spanking. I’m sure they reported what they were given so maybe you should keep that in mind and place blame where blame is due.  Because I know stories can be confusing due to lack of all of the details/facts, my opinion  stated, “IF this was a spanking” he should not have been arrested. You mentioned animal abuse, it’s a documented fact, if someone abuses animals…they also abuse family. Any abuse is criminal. I am sure you're very upset and by all means, the father should have been arrested and should spend time in jail.

You people have got to be kidding me.  He did not spank her, he beat her.  Anyone who spanks (and I do) knows: Spanking does not cause the marks she had on her.  Spanking does NOT cause a child to visibly and painfully limp.  Spanking does NOT cause a full grown male police officer to flinch, go home and call DCF HIMSELF!  Wonder how you would feel if you saw the pictures of her leg.

protective mother i read the news artical and i see both sides it does say spanking on it now i also understand your child is 16 and i do not belive for 1 sec that she is the one in the wrong she is 16 and probley has a mouth like we all do but as a mother i usally quit spanking my kids at about 10yrs of age but to beat a 16yr old for talking back to someone that she should have no respect for cause this lady did nothing for her i am sure your daughter is 16 2 years left till she is eighteen he should have walked away from her she is almost an adult and is entitled to her opinons on situtations if he hit u it would be assult but they label due to her age a spanking this is not right anybody going off the handel the news has most of the facts but they very seldomly tell all so they get ratings and more in there pocket we would not be leaving comments if they told the story correctley right????

protectingmom

When all things considered why wasn't this child with you instead of him...?  As an ex-emergency room tech and military personnel I have seen it both was ways of child abuse.  Yet 50/50 hind sight being the norm.  Positive intervention in your child behavior would have same both you and the child grief, but the problem I have is why isn't she living with you?

So to stand back and shake your finger isn't working unless you are standing in a mirror while doing this as well.  As stated before a child kill his entire family because he was told to take out the trash.  Discipline starts somewhere and you haven't proved your case to me.

Instead what has is the ever growing numbers of children killing their parents for being told what to do.....  Being told what to do at home or within the prison system   ultimately it's your child's choice.

Canadian girl, 13, accused of killing family

15 Year old Maryland Boy Kills his Entire Family

These are the horrors of lack of discipline one child kills because he didn't want to take out trash, the other decided to start dating and having sex.  Your child  started out with back talk.

I'll wait to judge you and her next headline..................

 I host a website, www.nopaddle.com, about school paddling as physical abuse, sexual abuse, and sexual harassment.  There are many aspects of home "spanking" that also are very harmful.  
 My first thought reading about this "spanking" even before the mother's comments were made here, it must have been one hell of a beating to even catch the attention of any authorities in TN, the number four paddling state in the US by percentage behind Mississippi, Arkansas, and Alabama, let alone get a conviction.
 For those who decry high prison rates and think "more spanking" must be the answer, the fact is school paddling and the associated higher rates of spanking in paddling states do nothing to help prison rates, and if anything have the opposite effect.  The top 9 prison states are all paddling states, and the bottom 12 prison rate states are all nonpaddling.  18 of the 21 paddling states are in the highest half of prison rate states.
 Jesus never taught anyone to hit anyone, again a common false teaching.  
  Hitting opens the door to abusive and violent actions and even accidentally sucks in well-meaning people, since violence is immeasurable.
 It is interesting, further, how all of the TN media I've seen so far have not reported the facts on this case, but instead chose to sensationalize the "jail time (2 days) for "spanking" (severe beating).  The untold further sad story is what happened in "dad's" life, church, family, and school, to make him think beating his daughter like this was the right thing to do?

I seem to notice a trend here: did anyone not catch this part of the story?

John T. Cox was found guilty Friday, February 2, 2008, on a domestic assault charge.

DOMESTIC ASSAULT

You do realize what that means right? It wasn't a spanking. It was a beating, it was abuse.
That is why he is going to jail.

Let me add, yes I'm sure the news media is reporting what they were given, but my anger I guess comes from the public not really comprehending what they are reading.
Think about it.
Headline says father goes to jail for 'spanking'. That outrages the public, our rights are being taken away, yada yada yada!
Look at the bigger picture.
It states John was found GUILTY OF DOMESTIC ASSAULT.
" John T. Cox was found guilty Friday, February 2, 2008, on a domestic assault charge. "
You do realize how that differs from a simple 'spanking' don't you all?
Just all I'm asking is that people stop with the knee jerk reactions to the headline and comprehend what they are reading, think about it before going off on a tangent about a poor innocent dad goign to jail for spanking his teen daughter.

Static:
As far as my personal life and issues as to why she was in her visitation time with her dad I won't go there. NOTHING makes what he did right or ok. I don't care if a child cusses you out, adults don't have the right to assault one another and I don't feel that adults should have the right to assault a minor either.
Spank all you want, don't you dare assault and hurt another human being!

protectingmom

Far as how you discipline your child in the future will be left up too you as long as it doesn't infer with the law abiding tax paying citizens .

For every time I see a child kick his mother in public, yell and rant at a parent, once listening to a young teen yelling at their mother they f-ck who they want.  In my book simple reasoning is out the door and paddling, spanking, or if deemed necessary a smack across the cheek may help.

This is a HELL of a lot better than a phone call from the police department or hospital for something my child has done or been involved, or found dead any day of the week.

Yet in my home I don''t have that problem where some families do, my children do what I say unquestioning me or my wife.  We corrected those problems with strict discipline and outdoor activities, something you obvious don't do.

Laying around looking at mind numbing TV, telephone, and video games it's no wonder your child and maybe your ex-husband have issues.  We work hard and live well, preferable to sanctioned living where most of these problem originate.

If you looking for a shoulder to cry on you won't find it here, my wife will say if it's a problem at home then you created it, deal with it.
If my children act in a manner that needs direct intervention it is going to happen on the spot if it calls for it.  I will say this not allowing the children to participate in their team sports or hobbies is  something they would rather deal with than me or her for some foolishness as talking back.

After saying that take control of your life and your home get off your fat butt and do something besides cry to the world for the problem you created.
And if your child needs some strong discipline you better come up with something other than a damn time out.......

My daughter made straight A's in school my son A's and B's  We live the way we do because that's just how it is with trust and love in a home something you lacking in life and home.

Here is a story to reflect on while you consider your child actions....

Canadian girl, 13, accused of killing family


Canadian girl, 13, accused of killing family
Jun 12 12:28 PM US/Eastern

Write a Comment
A 13-year-old girl is on trial in Canada for murder, charged with killing her parents and brother last year for opposing her relationship with a man almost twice her age.

The girl and her then 23-year-old boyfriend were arrested after her mother, father and brother were found dead on April 23, 2006, with multiple stab wounds in their Alberta province home. The boy also appeared to have been strangled.

During the trial, which started this week, prosecutor Stephanie Cleary read to the jury an email written by the girl, 12 at the time, to her boyfriend a month before the killings, local media said Tuesday.

"I hate them so I have this plan. It begins with me killing them and it ends with me living with you," the email said.

 What makes you think the Canadian girl who hated and killed her parents was not spanked?  Many killings are from people who are spanked, and sometimes that is the direct cause.
 Remember the "Zoloft Killing" with the 12-year-old suicidal and mentally ill boy on Zoloft who killed his grandparents?  They had just got done paddling him for not being able to sleep and for his skin itching from the medication, and it was that reason he decided to kill them.
 The Jonesboro Arkansas school shooting was reported to be in retaliation for a paddling given the day before, perhaps by one of the teachers who was shot.
 Most of the media tries to downplay these links.
 The school paddling states have higher rates of murder and violent crime than the nonpaddling states, and across the globe, the non CP countries have much lower rates of violence and crimes than the US.

First of all if a child is raised properly and the parents actually discipline a child correctly there is no need to "spank" said child.  Spanking is a cop out for lazy parents. To the so called mother of the child- good looking out.  I just don't understand why you aren't in jail too.

i feel that that is the girl's father its not like he tried to rape her or anything i also understand that us only 2 days but that still don't make it right. i mean he didn't do anything just tried to discipline his child to let her knoe respect her elders and i see nothing wrong with that.

ok.grown ups, lets let our childern get away with disrespect hell will be hot for them too.OR LETS SAVE THEM FROM THIS TRIP WE CALL GOVERMENT.......

Static:
You obviously don't get it and are very narrow minded and judgemental. Your ASSumptions about me, my daughter and calling me names, etc only shows your ignorance and I have nothing further to say to you. You aren't worth my time. I don't need tears from the likes of you. You're no better than John IMO.

It's obvious there is a lacking of intelligence on this site....ugh.
Run along now and live in your perfect ignornace.
You have no idea. No idea.

protectingmom, you did your job(what any real parent would do) you do not have to justify the situation to anyone.  Don't stress yourself.  Some people are not understanding either by choice or not.  I know that there are times that you have to go along with visitation even if the other parent doesn't need to have it.  It is wrong to beat or even spank a child to a point where it leaves bruises.  He was wrong no matter how the story is spun.  Static and others should not attack your parenting skills.  There have been some people who become serial killers and the rod was spared on them.  

Be Blessed protectingmom

T.D.

The lack of parenting skills is her problem, if her child had the social skills of a 12-14 yr old child this situation would have never made it to the news.

But it did and the community is talking.  She don't have to listen or read about the behavior problems associated with unruly kids when there is one part time under her roof.

Why don't you take her in help provide this child with the nurturing she needs , God only knows it may do this kid some good.  The biggest problem with some parents they see the good in other kids.

Wishing their children was like them and when they not they emotionally throw them away and now they have problem child the reality.
No you can't be big sister, cool friend, or secret partner...No you must be a parent 24/7 at 100% of the time.

If she had this would be a respectful child making the other children learn those things that makes her special, instead of a news report.

Far as intelligence goes, my wife is an Instructor at Virginia Tech College, Yes she was their on April 16th.  Me I am a personal Trainer for 'PROFESSIONAL ATHLETES"  in the NFL.  A simple meal plan from me costs $400.00 wkly.  Trust this I write plenty of them.

This summer I will be hosting a seminar for male at risk kids teaching them fishing and cooking skills for self esteem.  No I think I am a very ignorant person, because if she had brought that child down to earth, took her to places, showed her how things can be through hard work and effort, instead of the latest Britney Spears thong set.

This kid could be a role model for all to see, now she is an emotional wreck and thanks to her mother lack of responsibility this kids chances are slim...

But their is hope.  Here is my advice to save this child take it or leave it.....

Find the one thing this kid likes no boys, no music, not actors... Find something let the child focus on that help her to understand what she has and master the possibility of a future and she will do well.

I was given a chance when I was 13 and I took it swimming turned into the Navy, and all possibilities came true.  The alternative was not an option, my father made sure of that.

After my seminar my son will be in the kite flying skills challenge in San Diego at Sea port Village where I met his mother in September 1982.  Spare the rod spoil the child it's your choice...

Take control quit being a damn slouch.  Say what you want I learned everything from my surroundings watching bad and good parenting combining the both and it works.  you got my life fix yours or whatever, there is one thing for certain my children don't talk back, dishes washed, garbage and trash can cleaned out.

And I know where my children are do you?

Im currently 21 years old, attending college. My father last spunk me when i was around 16 or 17. Until one meets the legal age of 18, every parent should have the right to spank their child for punishment. It is not "domestic violence." Spanking is only a form of ignominy for dishonorable or shameful behavior. It is the parents responsibility to teach that there are consequences and preventable concerns to their children by forcing remorse into their children. Teenagers and young adults are expected to have reached the level of respect and honor towards their parents to be humbled in their presence. Therefore, the parent's discernment should trigger the same type of guilt once felt by a spanking that lead them from future misbehavior. However, sometimes parents have the burden to continue the "spanking" punishment in their children's early adult years. I am not aware of the full story. If the father penalized the young girl in public that can be given a justified mortifying description of molest in regards to female hierarchy, he has to be commented to jail time. Yet, I would hope there is a thick line between the two situations. It is pathetic for a child to have a parent arrest for legitimate spanking. It is also pathetic for a child to have to reach to government authority to escape their father's male dominance. It really depend of the details. In a typical situation dealing with a nurtured environment, I would say the child needed a spanking when he gets out just for dishonoring her father, and I would set a case  in regards to the government for not noting the child to be in his care until age 18, giving him authority of his children. Oh, by the way, if my father spunk me now I would not charge him for domestic violence.

I D0NT UNDERSTAND!! IT'S A SPANKING! WHOOP-DEE-DO! EVERYBODY GETS ONES, PEOPLE MAKING A BIG DEAL OUT OF NOTHING....AS USUAL!

OK????? WHAT???
If the little girl is okay [no bruises or cuts] then she'll be alright. A spanking is a spanking. But if she is hurt real bad then, I say throw the basterd in jail.

Again to static:

You call people names, that shows the level of your intellectual intelligence. I could care less what you do for a living, your job doesn't make you who you are. Your skills, schooling, education....none of that shines through in your writings.
Again you continue to make wild assumptions that my daughter is some wild mouthy child when you know nothing of her life nor mine.
I will say that yes, all teens can be mouthy at times, what the problem here was that my daughter was sitting in the floor and didn't even say a word to him except for, 'i didn't do anything wrong, if your girlfriend told you that then she is lying on me'.
He sat on top of her, put his leg over her body, her little brother ended up underneath her during this, he pulled up her shorts and hit her 15-20 times. He stood up over her, asked her had she learned her lesson, she looked at him and stated, 'i didn't do anything wrong'. He sat on her again, put his leg over her again, hit her several more times.
She had bruises, abrasions, scratches in her groin area, handprints from the bottom of her buttocks to her knee that didn't fade until over 8 days later.
Dad was angry because his girlfriend was going to give medication to the little brother and the daughter had already done it. She always did it because dad was always sleeping, she's always had to take care of the little ones when with him.
My daughter really didn't do anything wrong and didn't deserve this type of abuse. This is not the first time he's ever gone this far in a 'spanking'. His motto has always been if you don't leave a bruise you haven't done your job.
He assaulted me and another daughter in the past.
Getting out of a controlling abusive relationship is not easy, and if nobody else will, I give myself a huge pat on the back for getting out and getting my children out of that situation finally.
This was never about revenge, this is about justice!
BTW, even DCS says my daughter has the maturity level of a 30 year old woman. My children are at school and daycare, your last question is nothing more than a failed attempt to anger me which again shows your maturity level. You aren't using your mind to figure out the real truth of this story at all, you're taking a 'spanking' headline and giving exactly what the media expected, nothing more than a knee jerk response.

12 year old boy beats toddler to death with bat

   LAUDERHILL, Fla. — A 12-year-old boy has been charged with beating a toddler to death with a baseball bat.

   Detectives said they have a videotaped confession from boy, who was babysitting the 17-month-old girl at a home on Northwest 31st Way in Lauderhill on Friday afternoon.

   He told police he beat the baby because she was crying and he was trying to watch a football game, according to court records.

Law won't allow Macomb teen girl to be charged in helping end her pregnancy.

RICHMOND TOWNSHIP - Macomb County Prosecutor Eric Smith said his hands were tied when it came time to decide whom to charge in the baseball bat beating death of a fetus being carried by a teenage girl.

He decided Tuesday to do the only thing one state statute allowed: charge the boyfriend who wielded the bat, hitting his girlfriend in the stomach repeatedly over a two-week period, but let the girl off the hook, uncharged.

Teen Strangles Father with Gamepad Cable

A 14-year-old was arrested this week after trying to kill his father by strangling him with the cable of his video console gamepad. While the videogame console brand hasn't been disclosed yet, the police have been able to establish the circumstances that lead to the almost surrealistic (but strangely understandable) murder attempt:


The father, who warned him several times to stop playing, went into the room to demand that he turn off the video console. The son ignored the father's orders and kept playing, trying to finish his game. As a response, the angry paterfamilias unplugged the power cable, making the son lose his progress in the game.

A young Halo 3 fan has been accused of punching his mother after she forced him to stop playing. The boy was engrossed in Bungie's latest epic when he was told to end the session as it was getting late. When he refused, the youngster's mother removed the 'air card' from the Xbox 360 (nobody knows what that is) and was met with violent resistance.

Alabama Teen Arrested For Raping His Mother

Albertville, Ala. -- Police say a Marshall County teen raped his mother to get revenge on his brother.

Police say 19-year-old Gary Helms, Jr., raped his 45-year-old mother this past weekend at Willow Terrace Trailer Park on Doyle Drive in Albertville.

It's a twisted crime that police say Helms admits.

The rape stemmed from an argument between him and his brother. And apparently they were arguing over a girlfriend.

And the rape was some sort of retaliation towards his brother," said Sgt. Jamie Smith of the Albertville Police Department.


Authorities say Helms' mother was apparently passed out drunk on the couch when the rape started.

"During the attack she did come to and recognize her attacker. (Reporter: As her son?) As her son," said Smith.

That's when, according to the police report, the mother "tried to get away, but he held her down until he was finished."

"It's totally sick is what it is," said Smith.

No we have never met, I currently live in Virginia and a native Tennessean.

If your child need a change of scenery the Roanoke Area may be for you....

Very low crime rate,  Police Very intolerable of basically anything.

Video cameras on all traffic lights, and major highways.

Domestic violence is frowned upon with stiffness,

Read about it in the Roanoke Times for Tuesday.....

in fact they are talking of cutting back on emergency callers due to low crime rate.

Lastly the reason for the crime reports to open your eyes all children problems start early and the vast amount of them starts at home.

One other thing, we didn't have children until we were in our thirties career and finance was a priority first.

My wife left home when she was 17, attending college in San Diego she left home because her mother and father didn't seem to care.

She was working on a hot dog vending cart reading the book  "War and Peace" for class the rest is history, I wouldn't trade her for the world...

Oh about the media, they are about misguided as Hillary Clinton for President.


 Suzanne Coleman

Had affair with Clinton when he was attorney general. Died of "suicide" with gunshot wound to the back of her head. No autopsy allowed. Was 7 months pregnant at time of her death. She had told friends it was Bill Clinton's child.


Doug Adams
Died Jan 7 1997

Long before Whitewater's land flips made the Clinton's circle of friends rich, many of the same players had been involved in a similar land swindle in Branson. Doug Adams was a lawyer in Arkansas who got involved trying to help the people who were being swindled out of their life savings.  

Committed suicide by shooting himself in the back of the head "twice".  No autopsy.

The Static posts above should prove that he is a very disturbed person.This guy works for the Obama camp.If Hillary becomes president ,Static can expect the boys in the black cars and black suits to pay him a visit.

I think it's more likely that the guys in the white coats will visit Static.  Static seems virtually unable to talk about the subjects that are posted.  Instead he veers off into his own "la la land" and starts posting wildly unrelated subjects.  P.S. Static, you aren't an a**hole for stupidity, you are just plain an a**hole.

GARDNER, Kan. -- Four classmates witnessed a beating that left a 16-year-old boy dead, and one of them recorded the incident on his cell phone, authorities said.

Investigators confiscated the cell phone as evidence, police said.

Dakota DeRemus, a sophomore at Gardner Edgerton High School, suffered from a heart condition and died after he was involved in a fight with another 16-year-old boy on Monday.

Juvenile authorities charged that 16-year-old with involuntary manslaughter in connection with DeRemus' death.

There is a program being sponsored by the NRA, I believe it's called the Young Americans.

This allows young Teens to visit and learn the inner workings of Washington D.C. and earn or win a scholarship of $10,000, and $30,000 dollars during the summer and it's free.

Lastly you said you this:

My daughter has the maturity level of a 30 year old woman.

And she said this to her father: Your girlfriend told you that then she is lying on me.

One is attitude for her age she should have said "I didn't do anything but what you told me to do non- confrontational".

She is not 30 years old she is a teen ager all kids should remember that instead of backing down they confront adults and act more like adults than children.  She needs to remember her place in life and she is not to be elevated above that.

What's next?  Children at 12 or 14 because she acts like she is in her 30's.

Your words not mind, read the stories with a open mind for the action taken has opened your life to positive and negative criticism.

Let me help you out....this is the CORRECT way to express what you posted:  To keep dignifying what you two used ends of a sanitary napkin say is redundant, therefore I consider you null and void.  Post what you want, your blathering only proves that Neanderthal style of thinking still exists in the people of Memphis.  

There...you are now grammatically correct.  However regarding you as a person, I say “polish a turd, it's still a turd.”  Static, I am embarrassed for you.  Too bad you don't have the sense to be embarrassed for yourself.  

That said, I am done responding to anything Static has to say.  He is simply not worth any more energy on my part.  

LOL DAMN,
  LOL,LOL,
Static, you remind me of a prize fighter that is punch drunk, you just keep coming back for more, and you don't have enough sense to come in out of the rain. Please, go seek the help you need.

Static your grt grandmother didn't even have the maturity level of a 30 year old.

Static is someone who is very disturbed and is being chased off blogs all over the place by yours truly.He is not even good about hiding his identity.On another blog he makes the statement,''I'll get on while I wait for a client'.Then I find out he's sitting outside a home in Cordova in a yellow Stanley Steamer van.He was waiting on his client to come home to let him in to do the carpets.WHAT A MORON!
