America Not Looking Great

GMW in Particular and America in general.

Our country is starting to look like Ancient Bethlehem, when Herod was king:

A voice is heard in Raman, weeping and great morning, Rachel weeping for her children. Matthew 2:17

A red, white and blue elephant with stars on it's head.
AMERICA


America we are better than this. If this is the level we must stoop to, to make America great again, whose interpretation of Great are we going to profile? Our Founding Fathers or Our Current Leaders In Washington.

GMW is pointing a finger at the: The 3 branches responsible for governing our country. 1. Oval Office, 2. The House and 3. The Senate. When one looks bad, all 3, (STINKS) looks bad.

It’s not so much what you do, it’s how you do it. When a 2 year-Old is left to his or her own vices, Chaos is the result.

Virginia, it’s imperative, Our three Branches of governing has to turn BLUE!!

We must show The rest of the country, and the world ?, what governing with Commonsense and compassion looks like. 

We are witnessing daily what Alternative Truth and Anarchy looks like. DC., You are better than this.

As for me personally, my country has made me, “sick ?to my stomach, with a loss of appetite, So!!

America! Let’s pray for our Country in the Name Of Jesus.

DOMESTIC TERRORISM

A red, white and blue elephant with stars on it's head.
One who is silent when evil is taking place all around him becomes a partaker with them (Ephesians 5:7)



Grandmothers, Mothers and Women (GMW) what we are seeing now is Domestic Terror: If the President is not going step up and do what he’s compelled to do, then the House and Senate should impeach him. Our country is being destroyed from within.

The White Supremacists feel they are executing the presidents words; but common-sense Americans knows,†if any other race of color, was doing what these white supremacists are doing, the National Guard would be called. “ This group of Racists are the KKK on Steroids. The House and Senate is pointing their fingers at the Oval Office and we’re pointing our fingers at the House and Senate, because you have been looking the other way, and resigning from office instead, instead of dealing with the rhetoric of Mr. Trump. Those who know better should do better.

A red, white and blue elephant with stars on it's head.
Those Who Know Better Should Do Better…

Domestic Terrorism
If the Senate doesn’t act then Congress should do their Job. Mrs. Pelosi, GMW, feels you should start impeachment proceedings. We are sick and tired of seeing our Leaders in Washington behaving as if they have no power.

Mr. Trump may have the Senate in his pocket, under Mitch McConnell, but the Democrats has a Majority in Congress, under You Mrs Pelosi, and we want to see some common-sense action taking place. We are sick and tired of the Gun Violence and hatefulness. Give us a reason to give you, (Democrats) the Senate and the Oval Office In 2020.

There are 20 candidates running for the Oval Office. We would love to see One of them, step outside of the Safe Political Box, and show some backbone and leadership.

These are Mr. Trumps White Supremacists Terrorists: We see, All-of the blood, pain and suffering on the hands of The Oval Office, The House and The Senate. The Buck stops with these 3 Branches. If one fails; the other 2 branches has the responsibility of stepping up and making corrections. Otherwise, they are just as guilty.

THIS IS BEING SHARED IN THE NAME OF JESUS…

GMW of Virginia, We Have Homework

A donkey wearing boxing gloves in front of the words democratic party.

For the next four (4) months:  All seats in the General Assembly is up for reelections.

A red, white and blue elephant with stars on it's head.
This Is Virginia’s Political Table Where Our Sisters Are Fighting For Seat, and winning with our help.

 2019 Virginia House of Delegates election  and the Virginia State Senate elections, 2019

The Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee, wants us to know what at stake:

  • Health care access. Reproductive freedoms. Voting rights. Tackling climate change. And not just for the next legislative term – with redistricting right around the corner, we’re talking about a decade of policy. All of which will be written by the GOP if we don’t win this fall.
  • They’ve refused to act on gun violence – even ending a special session of the legislature after just 90 minutes.
  • They tried to stop 400,000 Virginians from gaining access to affordable health care through the expansion of Medicaid. And the list goes on.

W and democrats of Virginia, these four (4) seats in the House of Representative will give us a majority they are:

  1. 83rd   Nancy Guy House of Delegates.
  2. 91st    Martha Mugler,
  3. 96th     Mark Downey, House of Delegates
  4. 100th Phil Hernandez .

For Senate:  These (4) are Battle Ground seats held by the GOP, that Hillary won 2016 and Ralph won in 2017 and they are:

  1. Cheryl Turpin  Dist. 7
  2. Ghazala Hashmi   Dist. 10
  3. Debra Rodman   Dist. 12
  4. John Bell  Dist.

GMW of Virginia we asked our sisters who were willing to run for a seat at the Political Decisions making Table, and we would support them, well, they took us at our word, of the 8 seats we need to turn the General  Assembly Blue, 50 are percent women.  Now we must deliver, and, PUT OUR POWER WHERE OUR MOUTH IS.

OUR FOCUS


Our focus is now on what we’re going to do to have a seat at those Governing Tables

GMW, the issues consuming the powers from the highest offices of the land,  has almost lost their way and ability to lead. We all know a (2 ) two year olds’ mentality is in the Oval Office and,  now  being allowed to bully the leaders of the house and senate, plus their members. It’s very sad to see so many people, who went to Washington to serve with integrity, now selling  their souls for so little.

Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell has proven, they are incapable of making sure the person in the Oval Office don’t totally destroy what our country stands for at home and abroad. Lindsay Graham has become an embarrassment. I once had respect for him but,  how can we respect someone who has such low regard for his principles, values and his word. Decency, morals, and ethics has left the building, all qualities that must be in place, to prevent evil from triumphing.   

Grandmothers, mothers and women, We are going to prepare for the election of  2018 with our power. Our focus is now on what we’re going to do to have a seat at those Governing Tables, which has a major impacts on us, our families, communities, cities and states; while making those tables looks like the rainbow our country is. We would love to get back to Bipartisan Leadership; but the GOP is falling apart daily. Both branches are busy backpedaling trying to compensate for the antics of a two year mentality. 

Our efforts are going to be stating issues in Urban, Rural and Suburban environments that we want addressed. We vote, shop, give birth our of love and server God for guidance and direction more than any other gender. 

City Hall has a part to play and it’s called politics; we are going to determine the rules for City Hall and combine it with love and our God. We will achieve it with dignity, ethics, values, integrity, empathy and discernment; qualities essential for leadership.

 

 

GMW & AMERICA: THE SEXUAL ASSAULTS ARE OUT OF CONTROL


GMW & AMERICA: THE SEXUAL ASSAULTS ARE OUT OF CONTROL: WHY IS #45 STILL IN THE OVAL OFFICE:

His base was 62.9 million 304 Electoral Votes.  Votes against him was 65.8 million 227 E.Votes.  He was elected by 304 votes. The majority of American did not put him in office.

Grandmothers, Mothers and Women: We’re all familiar with the old adage, “there’s no fury like a woman scorn.” I think until we deal with the person who admitted to sexual assaults, We should be more careful with those who are just being accused. A man is supposed to be innocent until proven guilty, I think, ‘ that’s how our Judicial System is supposed to work.’

GMW I think these sexual assault charges are getting out of hand. And it’s time for due process.   I’m a woman and have work in Corporate America all my life and rode the subways in New York, and dealt with my male counterparts, if they got out of line, I dealt with them, I even had an occasion where I slap my boss and was ready to leave if he fired me, but he didn’t. I could now join the bandwagon of some of my sisters, and put his name out there, and by the time him and I meet up in court, his life could be ruin. We have to find a better way to deal with issues that can destroy a person’s life, other than in the courts of public opinions.

I know there are some men out there who really abuse their power, Mr. Trump admitted his disrespect for women and demonstrated it daily. Why is Donald Trump in our Oval Office, when he said ” he grab them by their private parts and put his tongue in their mouths. For #45 there’s nothing to prove, he admitted his deed. Roy Moore was abusing children, was even banned from the Mall, The people of Alabama had the decency to not make him a senator. Sorry I can’t say the same thing for those 62.9 million  and the 304 electoral  who voted for #45.

 

 

America needs Bipartisan Leadership, and more GMW at the table.


America needs Bipartisan Leadership, and more GMW in those positions, at the table.

GMW, saving our children and creating a world that’s conducive to their environment is a Momentous Task. We can and must accomplish it. But first, we have to learn to walk in each other’s shoes for a while and have serious dialogue; while dissecting our past with understanding and forgiveness. Then we’ll be able to create a world that values our future; “Our Children.”

It’s imperative that we have legislation  that applies equally to all of our children. I firmly believe that the worst legislation ever enacted, was the law charging children before they’re 18 as adults. I’m also sure those persons proposing those laws had never been parents or spent quality time around children from birth to 17;  they would know without a doubt that parents are still struggling to lead that age group. That group has no power of consent, the laws states they must have parental consent to go on a school trip. But, they can be tried as adults for the crimes they may commit as children while still under the Legal Tutelage or parents.

I think the sexual allegation that are coming from the SWAMP, is just the tip of the Ice Berg. It’s a cleansing of those offices. It’s also documented that between 1997 and 2017 congress paid 17.2 million in settlements. Lawmakers and staffers on Capitol Hill agrees, sexual harassment is rampant. Roy Moore should be making an exit from politics. The fact that he was barred from Mall while serving as Asst. District Attorney at age 32, to protect young girls in the mall from him, speaks for itself.  Our president is indorsing Mr. Moore, while he still has allegations against him for allegedly  raping a 13 year old in 1994 along with registered-convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. GMW, we know right from wrong and we have work to do.

Sexual Assaults of 2017


The Alabama Election:

America: The election in Alabama in the next 12 or 15 days with Mr. Moore as candidate, should be a lost seat for the GOP based on morals. If the Democratic don’t win this seat, they only have themselves to blame. Instead of rallying their base, they are busy trying to persuade the Republicans  to use their principles and values, to help them win the election. When what they  need, is to rally their own base, like other parties do.

GMW: Men occupy the majority of the powerful positions in the private and political area across the country.  They have been abusing that power over women and people with less influence for years.  Anita Hill, vs. Clarence Thomas is a perfect example, of why people who have been victimize, remained quiet. Being appalled by sexual misconduct in the work place is not a party issue, it’s a moral issue and simply unacceptable behavior. Washington has make it a party issue,  when it’s simply, men with no respect for those who works for, and under them.

Donald Trump and John Conyers are two (2)  of the highest ranking persons in office for each party and It’s apparent,  neither of them has used good judgment, integrity, values, honesty and principle in relating to those who work with and under them. The Private Sector’s examples of dealing with those who cross the lines of propriety in the work place is admired and appreciated.

The wins the Democrat had in the last election was because their base came out. Which was 91 percent women of color and 81 percent men of color in Virginia. but, across the country, we saw the results of what can happen when you value your base.

GMW the men whom we have elected to represent us, our families , communities, cities and states have violated that trust intolerably. Until we have Bipartisan  Leadership and Equal Representation of all Ethnic Groups (the rainbow) in America at the table, we will continue to have the violations of human rights, double standards and blatant injustice across our country and the workplace

Grandmothers, Mothers and Women,(gmw) in the upcoming election we must get in positions, which will enable us to correct the damage that’s being perpetrated against us and our families from Capitol Hill and our States Leadership. We will need to put in the work necessary with Bipartisan corporation and input,  in creating Tax Laws that will impact each of us and our families and make sure every American has access to affordable Healthcare.

 

Prison Reform: Juvenile Justice


A red, white and blue elephant with stars on it's head.
Children are five times more likely to be sexually assaulted in adult prisons than in juvenile facilities and face increased risk of suicide.

Children In Adult Jails:  Treating young offenders like grown-ups makes little sense.  

GMW: While our leaders in Washington are putting on a Circus for the world at ours and our children’s expense, we have some pressing issues that must be address in 2018 before November 6th.

  1. The 1st issue of importance is Prison Reforms: Children in adult jails
  2. The 2nd is Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program
  3. Right to Health Careorg
  4. Guns, Drugs, and Suicide: Death in America – CounterPunch

We will start with Prison Reform: Looking at 2 cases for example. 15 years old Nicholas Blount, tried as an adult; pleaded innocent went to trial. 16 years old, Kiaun R. Bray, tried as an adult and plea bargained.

GMW its time we put a price tag on our Dollars and Votes in 2018, for the sake of our children. If candidates wants our votes, they have to address our issues. We would like to coalition  with the Equal Justice Initiative (EJI) and The Children’s Defense Fund; organizations doing exceptional  work in prison Reform.

People of color we must become more proactive in making sure we’re in Jury selection Pools, I think the jurors should reflect the landscape.  I’m a little tired of seeing all white faces dispensing justice and everyone else in the courtroom receiving the results, is of color.

According to the Wall Street Journal  a few years ago. The House Judiciary Committee introduced five bills in a bipartisan effort to reform America’s criminal-justice system.  With incarceration rates in the U.S. five to 10 times higher than in Western Europe and other democracies, the bills aim was to provide sensible reforms such as rewriting mandatory-sentencing statutes. Yet none directly addresses plea bargaining, a practice that induces too many defendants to plead guilty to avoid what has come to be known as the trial penalty.

America Is US?

The practice of charging young people as adults gained momentum in America in the 1990s, as youth crime spiked and adults attention was weaning from their children to social media.

Has to be, lack of parenting

Consider the case of Nicholas Blount, who was 15 when he robbed a party with (2) 18 year old gang members.  His older accomplice plea bargained and got much lighter sentence of 10 to 13 years.

Blount felt he was innocent of some charges, and opted for trial hoping for justice. He got 6 life sentences plus 118 years.

Travion Blount was  serving one of the harshest punishments delivered to any American teenager for a crime not involving murder. Governor McDonnell  shortened his time to 40 years before he left office;  and thank God Terry McAuliffe, pardon him before leaving office.

Now look at the case of Kjaun Rahmein Bray. He was 16 August, 2000 when the offense occurred, his accomplish was a 16 year old male, who testified against him and has been out of prison for several years. they both plea bargained and were tried as Adults.

Mr. Bray was convicted upon his Plea of Guilty to Malicious Wounding, two counts of abduction, Carjacking, Use of Firearm in the Commission of  Felony and two counts of Robbery and sentenced to terms totaling, 28 years and 7 months, on March 16, 2001.

Mr. Bray, still has 8 years to serve. I just finish reading his response to the question brought to him of: “What do you think men in my position need if they were to be released from prison, not just from us who are incarcerated but for the ones who are also re-entering back into society.’

Mr. Bray Titled his response: CHANGE THE MIND CHANGE THE MAN. My blueprint for a positive transition into society. It was a fantastic read. I’m going to try and get it published on his behalf.

We are not suggesting juveniles are not punish for their crimes, they are not adults. We haven’t finish raising them, and they are incapable of making adult decisions and should not be tried as adults.

A man is being held by two police officers.
Change The Mind-Change The Man

America is the only country in the world that sentence their children to death.

In Jesus’ Name I’m praying for changes

 

 

 

 

 

WHO IS WILL PATTERSON JR.:



Please Read The Making Of A Juvenile Delinquents @ www.gmwsoc.org

15-year-old to be tried as adult in shooting of Portsmouth police officer:

GMW: When I heard this story on November 6 ,2017, my heart and prayers went out for the injured officer. Then I heard of the young man who shot her. I was appalled that a 15 year old child had a gun and shot a police officer. I then wondered: Who is this child. The following is what I found.

When Patterson first appeared in court after his arrest, he cried as a judge explained the severity of the charges against him. With his hands and feet shackled, he used his shoulder to wipe away tears. He wore jeans and a T-shirt, his hands and feet shackled. His mother and his legal guardian – an aunt – stood beside him.

The 15-year-old stood before a judge, crying as she explained the severity of the charges against him.

All we know about Will Patterson is that he’s a black young male, that was able to have gun instead of a book ,and shot a police officer who was trying to arrest him for being out of school. A tenth grader who has been a truant and is an admitted member of the 300 hundred gang. He is now going before a judge To Be sentenced as an adult.

Patterson, a 10th-grader at I.C. Norcom High School who has been truant, is an admitted member of the 300 gang, according to a summary of the case read in court.

I’m not condoning his crime, I’m only asking, ‘was this child ever in an environment that was conducive to his development. Was he ever treated as a child… loved, nurtured and cared for. So many of our juvenile delinquents are being tried as adults and their lives are over before they got started. These children did not give birth to themselves; there are adults somewhere, who dropped the ball.

When mass murderers commits heinous crimes, like the Vegas Shooter, or even Pit Bulls, they get analyzed. Their pedigree is checked,  just to try and understand what brought them to the end results, but for young men like William Patterson Jr., there no concern…   Only-15-year-old to be tried as adult in shooting of Portsmouth police officer:

Grandmothers we are losing too many of our men to the streets; It’s really takes a village to raise a child. They all belong to us. If we don’t try to save them, who will. We brought them into the world, was given stewardship over them by God,  I think we have all fallen short.

New Distraction from #45.


New Distraction from #45Each

GMW, I’m sure all of us can see thru the â€New Distraction from #45.” ( Each time the Mueller Investigation starts getting too much media attention, #45 comes up with a stupid un-thought-out decision to deflect attention). Except for the leaders of the House and Senate; Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell.

They are entrusted with the responsibility of making sure, actions from the Oval Office does not destroy America’s values and principles; at home and abroad. They are not doing their jobs!!!! But GMW, we’ll continually pray for our country, while working to save it, and running for office in 2018..

A red, white and blue elephant with stars on it's head.
10 years old little girl commits suicides

Our children are killing themselves for lack of coping skills. Parents and schools are blaming each other. The bullying behavior starts at home and manifest itself at schools and Social Media. Parents we need to focus more on making sure, by the time they enter pre-k, they can look in the mirror and see their best friend. When our children know and like who they are, bullies don’t have a chance. Us, or our children have no control of how others behave. But, we can control how we respond.

A 13-year old girl took her own life, and her journal revealed she was the victim of severe bullying. On November 28th, 13-year-old Rosalie Avila hanged herself in her bedroom.

Because of bullying by her peers. A red, white and blue elephant with stars on it's head.She thought she was helpless and hopeless. To mothers of young children in general and girls in particular, we must show our children that we can protect them.

Now just imagine having grown men taking advantage of your teenage daughters, especially in Alabama.  We have 2 candidates running for the office of State Senator.  Roy Moore and Doug Jones. Women are being asked to vote for Roy Moore, who has been accused of Sexually Molesting or Assaulting young girl from age 14-17 while he was a grown man of 32.   Moore is being supported by #45, who has Sexual Charges against him by over 15 grown women, plus allegations of raping a 13 year old girl.

The raping of the 13 year old girl can easily be read just by googling It. GMW we simply have to do a better job of protecting our children in general and our daughters in particular. By being better role models for them.

Grandmothers, mothers and Women in the state of Alabama, how are you going to explain to your young daughters, granddaughters, nieces,  and young sisters who look up to you; why you voted for Roy Moore;  was it your principles values or ethics?

Girl 13, raped by Donald Trump

A woman’s lawsuit alleging Donald Trump raped her when she was 13 will soon get a hearing before a judge — but not until after the presidential election.

 Manhattan Federal Judge Ronnie Abrams has scheduled a hearing for December 16, 2016 after the election.
