KROGER GORCERY STORES AND THE CATHOLIC CHURCH HAVE SOMETHING VERY BAD IN COMMON

The crimes committed by people on Terra are not limited to the splashy events like bombings or kidnapping. people commit serious crimes against one another every day. A case in point is the crime committed against Cindy Nerger of Warner Robbins, GA while she was shopping. Here’s the upshot of what this woman was victim to while grocery shopping at Kroger.

Cindy Nerger spends 12 hours on dialysis every day. She’s been on a waiting list for a kidney transplant for five years. She’s the caregiverfor the grandmother who raised her.

Since Nerger can’t work, the family relies on her husband’s income, but he works only part-time so he can help her.

Late Tuesday night at the Kroger off Watson Boulevard, Nerger went grocery shopping.

When she got to the register there was a problem.

“He told me I owed him 10 dollars and some change. I am not exactly sure what it was, but I told him, ‘I said I am sorry sir, but there is nothing in my cart that is not covered by food stamps,’” said Nerger.

She said she and Kroger employees argued for a half hour when a manager acknowledged she was correct about the purchase.

Nerger was upset. She told the manager the argument was unnecessary because she was correct all along.

“And he said, ‘Well excuse me that I work for a living and don’t rely on food stamps like you.”

The comment humiliated her, she said.

“I turned around and I saw the people there. I was like, oh my goodness, and I just started crying,” said Nerger.

Having worked from the time she was 15 until her kidneys failed, Nerger never thought that she and her family would be on food stamps.

“I didn’t want to have to go there, you know, nobody wants to have to ask somebody for for help, but it got to the point it was either ask for help or starve,” said Nerger.

Kroger spokesman Glynn Jenkins told 13WMAZ Friday that he could not verify exactly what was said between Nerger and the manager. But he also challenged her version of the story. He said the company is speaking with other employees who witnessed the exchange.

Later Friday they sent this statement:

“We deeply regret that a Kroger customer had an unpleasant shopping experience. Kroger is conducting an ongoing investigation, and look forward to resolving the customer’s concern. We hope she will continue to shop at Kroger in the future.”

Nerger said she was contacted by Kroger’s corporate office about the incident. She says they offered her a $15 gift card for her to come back.

“I told them, ‘No thank you.’”

Monday morning, Kroger spokesman Glynn Jenkins issued the following statement to 13WMAZ: “We deeply regret that a Kroger customer had an unpleasant shopping experience. After an internal investigation, we have decided to transfer the co-manager to another location. We wish the customer well and hope she will consider making Kroger her destination to shop in the future.”

Nerger says all she really wants is an apology from the manager she says mocked her. Kroger has since transferred the manager to a different store.

Told about the manager’s transfer, Nerger said it wasn’t “good enough,” and suggested he “should have been demoted to cashier so he can learn who is really on food stamps.”

She also thinks the manager needs to be “properly trained on customer service.”

Does that bold section sound familiar? Why didn’t they just fire the guy?

BREAD & CIRCUSES: CRAZY OHIO: CHARLES DEBOSE, THE KIDNAPPING CASTRO BROTHERS, THE CATHOLIC DIOCESE OF COLUMBUS AND JAMES GILKERSON

You’ve heard me say many times in the past that from time to time it seems something gets dropped into the water supply in an American state and the hoi polloi just seem to lose their shit. This week the capital of crazy is Ohio with three stories that were they not true they might not be believed.

Here’s one we missed nearly two years ago. Charles Debose, 55 of Cleveland, Ohio shot and wounded an 11 year old girl playing near his car back in June of 2011 and was sentenced to eight years in prison. The man stated at the time of his arrest that he had warned the children about playing near the car and as a part of his guilty plea he stated he fired at the ground and the bullet ricocheted and hit the girl. It appears once again a gun was an easier solution than a phone call to parents.

The Catholic Diocese of Columbus has fired a physical education teacher, Carla Hale, with 19 years in service at Bishop Watterson High School because she published the name of her spouse who happens to also be female. A letter was sent to the diocese anonymously stating that the author was a “concerned parent.” It read, “I was shocked by what I saw. It had her teacher’s name and that of her ‘spouse’ listed. It was two females!” The Catholic school’s principal explained that Hale was being fired for being in a gay relationship not for being gay. I find this curious. While this is an odius crime against Hale’s civil rights, had the Catholic Church taken this sort of position on pedophile priests, starting 80 years ago, there would have never been a scandal. [An aside: The mailing address of the Diocese of Columbus is 197 E. Gay Street, Columbus, OH and I shit you not.--F.S.]

And the biggest news story of the last few hours, which also comes from Cleveland, Ohio, is the rescue of Amanda Berry, Michelle Knight and Gina DeJesus from their captors Ariel Castro, 52, Pedro Castro, 54, and Onil Castro, 50. The three men had kidnapped the three girls over a period of 18 months. Berry had been missing since 2003 gave birth to a child that is now six years old in 2006. Knight who was 20 when she was abducted eleven years ago and DeJesus who was 14 when she was taken in 2003 have along with Berry been medically cleared and released from a Cleveland area hospital.

The Buford Rogers arrest in Montevideo, Minnesota points out that in a nation of 320 million Souls there are bound to be some that just will not play well with others. No matter what the race or religion a person might be if they build bombs and stockpile weapons they meet my personal criteria for a terrorist. Equally, those who open fire at law enforcement with the intent on committing suicide which was the motivation of 42 year old James Gilkerson in Middlefield, Ohio when he opened fire at the cops with an AK-47 rifle firing 37 rounds and wounding both officers. Bomb making pamplets and videos along with nearly 400 rounds of ammunition were found by police in Gilkerson’s car. James Gilkerson was sentenced to the Suicide Gardens by Magis Ruffin G Pleasant on 12 March 2013.

CONSERVATIVE BLOGOSPHERE REFUSES TO PUBLISH THE BOSTON BOMBING SUSPECT’S DESCRIPTION

As a crime writer there are three rules that I live by. One, never trust the first draft of anything that comes across the Associated Press news wire. If you wait ten minutes, go and have a cigarette and come back the story will be fleshed out with more accurate facts rather than the initial reporting of someone on the scene who likely knows next to nothing. Two, in matters involving potential terrorism, reposting the last rumor you’ve heard is pointless because you will have to go back and retract what you’ve posted. I, personally, hate retractions. Three, never inject your personal, religious, political bigotries into the reporting of a crime story that is breaking. If the crime has been solved and the perp caught and on their way to the hoose gow have at it; before then leave the politics in the box in your bottom drawer.

Now every profiler here in Dis that’s worth his or her sulfur has told me they have felt that this is situation in Boston was an act of domestic terror aimed at a liberal state government and a federal government that isn’t pushing this guy’s buttons because it appears way too liberal for him. This is the biggest news story in years on Terra and there’s no room for me sitting here in hell to get a scoop or generate any major traffic to this blog so why would I waste my time speculating when you have dozens if not hundreds of better news sources from which to gain information about the manhunt?

On that note I’d like to add that the conservative blogosphere [ and along with them I lump the white supremacist blogosphere] have fallen collectively on their swords because it is imperative to their worldview that this bomber has to be of Middle Eastern origin and allied with al Qaida. Now it may turn out that this white male in his thirties might be a Dermocrat or may even be a member of occupy Wall Street, but that doesn’t take away from the foaming angry bigotry displayed not only at the hot den of race thinking that is IOWntheWorld.com, but from the New York Post, The Gateway Pundit and these bastions of conservative readership.

However, despite all of this and more none of these outlets have offered the description of the man the FBI is seeking. That description has been public on the AP wire and Pressju Hellac for more than 13 hours now:

The man sought as a possible suspect is a white male, wearing white baseball cap on backwards, a gray hoodie and a black jacket, according to CBS News.

BREAD & CIRCUSES: BRANDON HOLT, TONY BAILEY, DANIEL D BILLINGS, ADAM ANTHONY ARNDT

“The measure of a society is how healthy its citizens are.”– General of the Skies Nuulo Isdrix

I quote the head of Hell’s police force, the Laal Hethri, to help me make my point this morning. It appears, with the help of the 24 hour, local, national and global news cycle, that problem solving has migrated from simply being able to walk away and cut your losses in America to a thread of having to destroy the problem and thereby destroying yourself. Every Free Citizen of Hell can count themselves fortunate for not being in the Suicide Gardens and allowing the Fates to decide when was their time to die. Not only are those gardens where those who have thrown their First Lives away a center of Eternal Punishment but it also stands as a lining monument to Freedom in the Afterlife. While those suffering horribly in the Field of Crosses outside of Hell’s capital, Dis, do find themselves in a miserable state their suffering is a vacation to those who will never know anything but the repetitive horror of reliving their self execution over and over until and beyond the End of Time.

Our law enforcement and special intelligence groups within the Directat Javeth Nathux have never wavered in their efforts to save the minds of humans that would do harm to themselves. In America, the main obstacle to decreasing the number of suicides and the murders that often accompanied them is the culture of the gun. This journalist is fully aware of what the United States Constitution says about gun ownership. I also realize that if someone wants to die they will often find a way to do it even if a gun isn’t close by. The statistics that I see on a daily basis are staggering in regard to the number of people that kill themselves with firearms, go on shooting rampages and commit murders with guns of all types that it make me wonder why any sane person would want to live in a nation or be a part of a society that has as many guns in the hands of civilians as there are citizens of the country.

Today this isn’t a political issue to the family of Brandon Holt of Toms River, New Jersey. Brandon was killed by a four year old playmate who found a .22 rifle pointed it at his head from a distance of 13 meters and pulled the trigger. Brandon Holt is dead now and all the citizens who are in love with guns in America still can cling to their 2nd amendment rights. But what about Brandon Holt’s parents? What about the 4 year old child that now will become a constant reminder bot to the Holt’s parents and to his own of what a tragic momentary lapse of vigilance can do? Of course Wayne La Pierre of the National Rifle Association would say that this child a 4 year old child could have murdered Brandon with any number of common household items. Mr. La Pierre has a job to do and that is to keep the pressure on conservatives in Congress to maintain their position on the 2nd amendment not for the benefit of Mr La Pierre’s 4.5 million members but for the billions earned every year by gun manufacturers in the United States.

While the Sandy Hook Elementary School Massacre was the tipping point in the political debate, the facts of the damage that guns do to the America society in the hands of loved ones of gun owners and the owners themselves makes this journalist question just how rational the American people are anymore. Many conservatives see the firearm as the last line of defense against violent crime. This fear of “the Other” coming to their home and doing them and those they love violent bloody harm is a drum that gets beaten by right wing politicians on a regular basis. The code phrases about constitutional rights aside, the simple facts is that white American conservatives are more willing to commit suicide from fear of death than to take the weapons of choice for the vast number of their own demographic off the table. The plain truth is that more white Americans are killed by guns every year by their own hands or the hands of their spouse or significant other than by any minority unknown person wielding a gun.

I would be remiss as a journalist to not point out the crimes of men like Daniel D Billings of Milwaukee, Wisconsin who shot and killed his lover Annemarie Bautsch for reasons unknown, or to leave out the murder suicide of Tony Bailey and his wife Cindy Bailey in Inkster, Michigan where Tony Bailey stabbed his wife 60 times and then self immolated in his garage. Like the horror that took place in Montgomery County, Maryland that resulted in the death of high school student Michelle Miller at the hands of Army Staff Sergeant Adam Arndt these are clearly crimes of passion and/or mental illness. But despite the please from those on the Right about gun violence in Chicago, to simply say these people are crazy and go on accepting the violence is something that no civilized culture, no superpower as a nation state should accept.

BREAD &CIRCUSES: JOSHUA PETERSEN; COLTIN SLIGH; STEVEN SMITH

Not a single conservative blogger I know has likely heard of Lucas Ruric Coe. If you’re not weak of stomach or faint of heart click the link and find out about what the real crime secret in America is. If that’s not enough try this one about convicted child killer Steven Smith on death row in Ohio. Or how about just simply being mean, violent and stupid which fits for Coltin Sligh of Spring, Texas. Not to mention how stupid the woman, in that report is, being in the same house with a man of Sligh’s reputation, is in and of itself the act of an accomplice by the standard of Hellac Law. Just today in Katy, Texas there was an 11 month old found dead in an apartment from gun shot wounds along with a dead man and a critically injured woman.

My point is basic and it is easily understood; crime is crime. Crime should not be made a political issue by either side. The Right’s whorish commitment to the National Rifle Association and its vote greedy need to stoke the fears of white Americans who live in the suicide belt are no less nauseating than President Obama’s pandering to the minority of Progressive that hope for a day that they can take guns from law abiding citizens simply because they would freak out. neither of these political postures would prevent another Columbine, Newtown, Brusnwick baby shooting or the heinous actions of Lucas Ruric Coe. These evil persons are going to do harm if they have to use a mallet or a pair of scissors or their fists. They are that 10% of the species that cannot control themselves and should be culled by the Justice system sooner rather than later.

BREAD & CIRCUSES: THE CURIOUS CASE OF JESSICA UPSHAW

A report comes from the Jackson Clarion Ledger this morning that state Representative Jessica Upshaw was found dead in the home of former Representative Clinton Rotenberry, a real estate agency owner in Mendenhall, MS. Initially it was not clear what the cause of death was, but in recent moments the Laal Hethri has confirmed that Upshaw died of a self inflicted gunshot wound to the head. There are other curious factors to this death which the MS is not addressing at this time. Ms Upshaw appears to have driven from her home 110 miles away to Rotenberry’s home yesterday to end her life. Mr Rotenberry is married to Christy Rotenberry the vice president of a local clothing and furnishings store Stephens of Mendenhall. Media reports do not clarify whether Ms Rotenberry was at her home at the time of the suicide. Ms Upshaw, according to VoteSmart.org’s 2003 Political Courage Survey was an advocate in support of concealed carry permits for gun owners. At this time neither the Office of the Torturer General nor the Laal Hethri are willing to comment on any knowledge of a relationship, beyond the professional, between Rotenberry and Upshaw.

BREAD & CIRCUSES: EXAMINING WHAT THE BIGOTS AT STUFF BLACK PEOPLE DON’T LIKE REFUSE TO SEE

A recent article written by Dan Keating in the Washington Post on how gun deaths affect the races has prompted the writers at “Stuff Black People Don’t Like” to come to the following conclusion:

[Colion] Noir asks:

“Let’s talk about the violence in the inner cities. Everyone wants to ask why. Why the killing, why the murders, why the deaths?”
Because the inner cities of America are full of black people. That’s why.

Which is of course why many white people living in urban America are so excited about introducing gun control in their city, for it’s merely an attempt at controlling black people from accessing guns (thus, an attempt to negate a tool blacks can use in crime).

And, of course, why many more white people are so excited about protecting their 2nd Amendment rights — to defend their life, liberty, and property from the people most likely to use guns in a malicious manner.

Black people.

As harsh a condemnation of an entire race of people as that is the statement requires a deeper examination. The stated goal of SBPDL is to arouse animus for the black community among the minority of powerless right wing bigots in the United States. The writer reinforces the idea that black people are the greatest danger to the health and well being, both physically and economically, in America. What Keating wrote and evidence from sources at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention paint a vastly different portrait about gun deaths in the United States.

The fact that the suicide rate by firearm in the United States was 6.3% per 100,000 came as no shock to me whatsoever. The homicide rate by firearm was 3.6% per 100,000 which would cause a rational non race thinking reader to ask, “Who are all these people who are committing the greatest crime against their Souls?” Well, according to both the CDC and the article written by Keating:

A white person is five times as likely to commit suicide with a gun as to be shot with a gun; for each African American who uses a gun to commit suicide, five are killed by other people with guns.

The number of firearm suicide deaths according to the CDC based on 2010 data was 19.232; the number of firearm homicide deaths was 11,078. These are numbers omitted in the SBPDL article and for good reason. What the bigots at SBPDL want their readers to focus on is the potential that blacks will harm them. In fact a white person is far more likely, living in a rural area where guns are prevalent, to know someone who has killed themselves with a firearm, or, be involved in a firearm murder suicide, than have any harm caused to them by a black person.

The folks at SBPDL wave this fact away with the following poorly reasoned phrase:

Black people brandishing a gun while living on/walking by/driving on a street named after Martin Luther King Jr. is a recipe for immediate disaster, with an act of Spontaneous Blackness only moments from happening.

Meanwhile, white people are busy engaging in a metaphysical battle with their own reality, an introspective journey into measuring their own self-worth. If found wanting, they use a gun to take only their own life.

There’s the truth about guns in America.

So if a mistaken identity drive by shooting is a moment of “spontaneous blackness” then what would the bigots at SBPDL call the murder suicide of Herbert Rishell in San Antonio, Texas? Could it be an act of spontaneous whiteness the murder suicide of Richard Hughes and his wife in Asbury, Missouri? Should the suicide of Christopher Gilchowski and attempted murder of Charlotte Jones in Transylvania County, North Carolina be consider only along racial lines as a means to inspire not only fear but hatred against whites? As a rational journalist I would say no, but of course, you dear American reader live in very interesting times.
