Lets talk Hipocracy.

As of today, you will need an ID to leave a comment. I decided to change this after a very obnoxious moron decided to try to flame my tail. His/her comment looks like someone did an Internet search on my ID, and cut and pasted a few points and used them to try to discredit what I am doing here.

This blog, as it says, is for the purpose of bringing to the public, news about the Grand Rapids Home for Veterans, that many veterans believe the administration here does not want made public. And we believe the public who is paying for this place, has a right to know how their money is being wasted.

To be fair, I have made it possible for ANYONE to leave a comment, to correct the record. So far every comment has been published, and only 2 edited to protect the Identity of the people whom posted the comments.

I believe that the squeaky wheel gets the grease, so I am hoping this blog will bring about some positive change. And by my count, it has in 3 separate situations. So lets get on to the absurd comment left by someone who claims I am a hypocrite, while he/she also remains anonymous which I think is hypocrisy in and of itself. At least my ID can be checked and tracked.

 Anonymous has left a new comment on your post "It's a MIRACLE! Stinky forced to shower. Update #3...":

You are so concerned about your fellow veterans by calling them names and taking pictures of them. You have no idea what this man may have been through or his mental status. You are not a nurse or health practitioner.

No, I cannot use his real name, nor full name, nor can I show you his face.. but the rest I can do. Veterans of the Dom unit have tried going thru proper channels, writing up complaints on the Yellow incident forms, and filed them with the proper people for the last 2 years. NOTHING was done. They even threatened him with a military scrub down so the staff had the fire hoses removed from the Dom unit.

All we wanted was for him to start taking showers once a week.

This man was like typhoid mary, spreading germs around a unit where people were trying to recover from serious illness and major surgeries.  . Last year the clothing he wore literally rotted off his body before he changed clothing. And he was a human stench bomb. Several people threw up, that is they barfed, vomited,  after they got on the elevator after he got off, including a 72 year old WWII veterans wife who lives with us as a dependent. One veteran named Richard would not let Stinky ride the elevator with him because of his problem. The staff refused to help him, nor get him help. It took an incoming nurse who transferred from another unit to make him start taking showers and cleaning himself.

If you want to live and work with someone like that, be my guest. It should NOT BE HAPPENING here.

 
How old are you? 40 something? Maybe if you wouldn't have eaten yourself into obesity, were more productive in life, stopped sucking the life out of your family, especially your mother, freeloading off anyone you could, quit preaching about court cases you only are aware of secondhand, quit feeding into rumors, taking advantage of guitars for vets, posting completely bogus information, feeling like the world owes YOU, and stopped blogging with others about harry potter games (and other gaming systems), avoiding student loans, avoiding paying taxes and took responsibility for your own condition, you may be productive in life.

I'm closer to 50 My weight problem is directly related to my medical condition. Sucking life out of my family? My mother? I have never done such a thing. Preaching about court cases I was only aware of second hand? I have read more court cases than you can count kiddo. How many law books have you cracked open, only to find there are no pictures for you to color?

And what information is completely bogus? Can you be more specific? If so, perhaps I can post your corrections to what I have posted, IF you have anything of value to add. 

And How am I taking advantage of Guitars for Vets? I attended class, and learned how to play guitar. It is for veterans after all.. so what was I supposed to do? Avoid it? Come on man or woman, which ever you are, your claim doesn't even have one ounce of merit to it. 

Also, when have I ever blogged about Harry Potter? Where do you get this stuff? As for taxes, tax avoidance is your right, tax Evasion is a Federal Felony, a crime.   I should know this first hand as the government has tried 3 times to get me convicted and all 3 times the judges threw out the cases. 1 state, 2 federal.

I have been productive in life, and up until 2008, was doing a pretty good job of it. But then NAFTA destroyed what remained of my American dream. And at least I was a productive Citizen paying taxes, unlike some of these state workers that just show up to get a paycheck here. My god it burns my butt to think my taxes are paying for some of these people to sit around and collect 80k a year.

 
The reason you are in this situation is because YOU created it. You are responsible for you obesity, unemployment and laZiness. 

My Unemployment is due to NAFTA, Michigan's bad economy and now my health condition that does not allow me to return to work. And for your information, I worked 55 hours the last week I worked, and when I got laid off perminantly. 55 was a standard work week for us. How many do you do? I did 50-60 hours per week for 7 years straight.

Start owning your own mistakes and work to be on your own.  You preach and preach and preach about all the wrongs done to you. How long were you in the service? 6 months? did you see any combat???? NO!

Now how would an idiot like you have any idea how long I was in? It was more than 6 months and yes I saw combat, was IN combat, but we were never given credit for it because we were not "officially" part of it.  Also, if I was in only for 6 months I would not qualify to be able to go to the veterans home. DUH. How long did you serve? 3 minuets down at the AFFES station when you found out you had to pass an intelligence test to get into the army? Or did you run away when you had to drop your pants and spread em for a VD check?

Quit spreading your lies, laziness, and wrong information! 

  
Again I ask you, what information is wrong? And what is a lie? Be specific so I can correct them. If not, shut up, and whine somewhere else.

You are today, a bitter, nosey, angry man that has lost everything due to your own actions. Not the student loan companies, your family, your wife, your kids, taxes, etc. 

Yes, I am bitter and angry that my country sold my generation out. I have every right to be that way so get over it.

Wife? Kids? See what I mean folks, this poster doesn't even know me, only what they think they found on the Internet.. Nice try though.. 

Millions of others have been in the same boat, especially as young as you are, and pulled themselves out of it. Quit posting your negative false notions and try to better yourself!

Millions? Are you off your really hard medications this week? Sounds like it. You talk of hypocrisy, yet you refuse to identify yourself.. You remind me of Dan, the guy from Misc.taxes, a news group on Usenet. No, not millions have been in the same boat, many are not veterans. Many do not live where I do, so I will continue to do what I can to try to get changes for the better to occur here.


Now if you have something more specific to add, lets say, exactly the information you claim is bogus, or lies, or whatever, and want to correct the record, I will be happy to post that information. Until that time, you are part of the problem, not the solution.


See folks, this is typical of someone who does not want to debate, or have a proper discussion, but rather someone who just wants to spout off. Notice they make accusations, but offer nothing to back up their claims. A proper person would claim that I didn't know squat about something, and then give proof.  But the individual who left the comment, is just passing gas into the wind.  And I bet they are a liberal democrat too.
