Will there be World War 3?

Another World War like Vietnam? Should we help Syria? These are troubling questions. If we go along with dropping missiles on Syria then it is a good possibility that there may be World War 3.

“We the People” of the USA have always went beyond what is humanly asked for. Helping others is due to our sense of right and wrong. Our largest task is being there for the down and out. It is one thing Americans take seriously.

Is Al-Qaida or others in the Middle East trying to get the United States of America into World War III? After all they as well as others in the world are aware that Americans’ will come to the aid of children, no matter whom they are or where they come from?

President Obama wants to use missiles to take out those in Syria to stop this atroicity; promising there will be no boots on the ground. It seems many in Congress agree, too.

All our Representatives and the President have to go by is what others are telling them. If they believe in what they hear, then the United States of America will go to the aid of the Syrian children.

Many Americans believe in John 15, verse 13 “Greater love hath no man than this that a man lay down his life for his friends.” We Americans seem to live this to our deaths.

The little I have studied of other countries, one thing seems to stand out. Rulers keep control of their citizenry by keeping many uneducated. After all, if they cannot read, then they  will have a tendency to believe what another is saying, like a child. Is this why so many of us want to protect and help others in the world?

“We the People” of the United States of America do not want another World War. However, what can we do? Should we pay attention to our consciousness and put a stop to this massacre? Probably, otherwise down the line, we will feel guilty and blame ourselves for not helping the little people.

If you fear that we are about to enter another World War, and believe somebody is lying about Syria, then call, and write your representative in Congress, as well as the President. Tell them how you feel.

Is Profiing Necessary?

Profiling is a form that many people want stopped by law enforcement. If this is then those who commit crimes will be at ease and not worry about anybody watching their actions.
Profiling simply means a level or degree of noticeability, according to most dictionaries. In other words, profiling is analysis and classification of somebody.
For instance one night while working at a retail store, I watched a young man pass me. I got a bad feeling. He waved at a few other kids that were on the other side of the store. As they joined him, he walked ahead and opened up a small drink cooler. There he took out a soda. He was behaving like a showoff or leader of the pack.  “I bet he’s not going to buy it”, I whispered to myself. It appeared they were going out the other exit doors. However, he turned and went up the aisle directly in front of them. Within a minute or two, he came down the opposite aisle across the store and went out the front doors.
The reason I relate the above story is as a Volunteer for one of the finest Sheriff Departments, we had to go through the same training as deputies. During the exercise it was explained what to watch for.  Volunteers played the part of somebody up to no good. One had a large coat on with many pockets and it was hot. The instructor stated that many times a criminal would appear anxious, scanning the immediate area, wear the wrong clothes for the weather or when inside, and often be in a hurry.
Whenever a cop uses profiling, they are noticing a person’s body language; the way they behave, looking around nervously, not belonging in a neighborhood, etc. Humbly, I ask this question, if someone enters your neighborhood that you have never seen before, what are your first thoughts? Mine were, who are they and should I be concerned!
If you do not see the danger in stopping profiling, then you must live in a completely safe neighborhood. For that, we should be grateful. Sadly, few communities are unaffected of crime by those who wish to take what we have worked so hard to achieve.
As you probably have guessed by now I am a police advocate. I believe that cops are doing the best they can to protect us. Is that not why they were hired?
A pedophile kidnapped me when I was a child. A park ranger arrested the pedophile, even though the individual kept saying he did nothing. Returning to the park, my mother wanted to beat this individual to death. However, a soft-spoken tall cop said, “Ma’am although you probably would be convicted of beating him, you are breaking the law and I cannot allow you to do this.” From that day forward, I have been for all cops, except whenever a bad one pokes his/her head up. Those individuals took an oath and if they break it then they are no better than a common criminal is.
When we force cops to quit profiling, no matter the individual, then we are shooting ourselves in the foot. Our family, neighborhoods, schools, etc. will belong to the criminals and our comfortable zone will be gone. Do we want our children and future generations without a safe life?
