Stupid Hackers! Common Criminals, Fight Back!

Do not let Hackers stop your internet engagement.

My family and friends were subjected to the letter below after one of my e-mail addresses  was hacked, the good thing is most of my friends and family are smart people and wouldn't fall for such a cheap scam. Am sure some thought of all the probabilities and possibilities and were scared for the moment. 

The good thing am always 8-10 hours from communication with most of my friends acquaintances and others with whom I am in contact on a regular basis. The thing to be aware of is, most of us us operate on the internet daily as I do weather at home or at work and today by our cell phone and other devices. 

Do not allow Hackers to scare from getting on your computer or any of these devices that make us more accessible to our friends, our family and cause us to make that extra trip to the Bank or to a department store to pay a Bill because of these common thieves who call themselves Hackers.

The letter below does not represent how I operate as well as its fraught with  erroneous assumptions so my close friends and family took the necessary steps and were assured I was fine.

  • If you're on the internet have as many friend you want, do not allow the fear of hacking to limit your use of the internet.
  • You are already on the internet, having an e-mail address only allow you to see what everyone else knows about you.
  • The more friends and family you are connected on the internet is the quicker some one will be alerted in an emergency, the more likely you will have a birthday wish and you will never feel alone.
  • Do not let Hackers stop your internet engagement fight back, be smart do not fill out solicitations from companies you cannot verify,
  • Do not share your password and personal information with anyone.
  • If you have to enter  your social Security Number  on line only do so if its encrypted. 
  • get a reliable Anti Virus protection to protect your computer these we know are not 100% fool proof but will reduce the damage if your system is attacked.

Who are the Victims? RAPE, Abuse and INCEST

Presidential Candidate Rick Santorum
When a 12 year old  girl is the subject of rape or incest, shouldn't the parent of this child have the right to seek the medical assistance necessary to ensure that the child who may become pregnant does not bear a child whom she would not be ready for?. Under the Person-hood bill supported by Congressman Paul Ryan and Presidential Candidate Rick Santorum and passed by the Republican Congress would make it a crime a crime to seek the medical care necessary to prevent that pregnancy.

While Mitt Romney did not support Person-hood in 2007 his expressed this thought on meet the press, Romney’s “Political Perspective” In 2007: Life Begins At Conception. Romney: “I believe from a … political perspective that life begins at conception…. I don't pretend to know, if you will, from a theological standpoint when life begins.”

As Mitt Romney evolve as a candidate for President Mr Romney's views continue to shift to the far right in order to gain their support,  Romney was asked if he would support of a dangerous proposal, commonly called a “person-hood amendment,” that could potentially ban common forms of contraception like the birth control pill, as well as prevent a pregnant woman experiencing complications that threaten her life or health to obtain safe abortion care. Said Romney, “absolutely.” [Concord Monitor, 11/9/11]

1 out of every 6 American women has been the victim of an attempted or completed rape in her lifetime (14.8% completed rape; 2.8% attempted rape).

7% of girls in grades 5-8 and 12% of girls in grades 9-12 said they had been sexually abused.


Republican and Tea Party support person-hood




PERSON-HOOD BILL

“A ballot measure going before voters in Mississippi on Nov. 8 would define :- 

The term ‘person’ in the State Constitution to include, "fertilized human eggs" and grant to fertilized eggs the, "legal rights and protections that apply to people". 


  • Besides outlawing all abortions with no exceptions for, rape or incest or when a woman's life is in danger, 
  • banning any contraception that may prevent implantation of a fertilized egg, including birth control pills, the amendment carries many implications,
  •  It could curtail medical research involving embryos, shutter fertility clinics and put doctors in legal jeopardy for providing needed medical care that might endanger a pregnancy. 
  • Pregnant women also could become subject to criminal prosecution. 
  • A fertilized egg might be eligible to inherit money or be counted when drawing voting districts by population. 
  • Numerous laws use the terms '’person’' or ’'people,’' there would be no shortage of unintended consequences… 
This extreme measure would protect zygotes at the expense of all women while creating a legal quagmire -- at least until the courts rule it unconstitutional, as they should.” [New York Times, 10/28/11]
