Wild Child Dishes All - OK The Actual Dull Moments... http://itamra.com/blah/index.php Copyright 2012, Tamra M Burgess Tamra M Burgess en-US SPHPBLOG 0.7.0 The Questions No One At Fox News Has Asked George Zimmerman Or His Family http://itamra.com/blah/index.php?entry=entry120411-174754 Zimmerman Charged and In Custody!)

While Fox News has been EXCLUSIVELY privy to interviews with George Zimmerman and his family, I noticed questions were asked to justify the shooting of an unarmed teen, and the teen suddenly became a dangerous savage capable of extreme violence with simply Skittles and Ice Tea in his possession (items I don't know how he was able to carry while being a "violent savage" at the same time :|). And I also noticed Zimmerman and his family became heroes to Fox News "opinionators and rhetoric distributors" as well as their loyal viewers because of his family's bashing of President Obama, NAACP and other groups while ironically only speaking to a network that is the equivalent of a 23/7 extreme propaganda network (minus 1 hour for Shep Smith). Sean Hannity, an extreme rhetoric and opinion manager and non-journalist, also encouraged others not to come to a conclusion while presenting his own biased information in favor of Zimmerman and Zimmerman's family.

The one thing that immediately stood out to me: George Zimmerman was repeatedly and INSTANTLY described as a "neighborhood watch volunteer". STOP RIGHT THERE :o

1. IF Zimmerman was a neighborhood watch member, whether volunteer or official, his FIRST and ONLY role was to ensure safety and security for his NEIGHBORS. He instead chose to hunt and kill his neighbor's family without even trying to find out where person's destination was, whether up to no good or not.

2. What happened to approaching Trayvon Martin and simply stating with respect and dignity: Hi, I saw you walking in the rain and just want to make sure all is okay. I'm a neighborhood watch volunteer, my name is George Zimmerman, THEN extend his hand to shake Trayvon Martin's hand OUT OF RESPECT? Isn't that a respectful way to treat people first IF NOT A RACIST and such a decent guy (as reported by his family and countless "friends"), instead of assuming person (which was actually a child) simply walking and looking a certain way is automatically guilty and up to something immediately? Approaching with honesty and respect (why person is being stopped and questioned) is also how respect for one another is built within a community, instead of an "us" against "them" mentality where you live, subsequently and errantly making your own home a war zone!

3. IF REALLY CONCERNED because or prior robberies, as his neighbors who defended Zimmerman's murder of child stated, why not find out with certainty that an unwanted act was in progress, not simply WALKING in progress. Instead Zimmerman's behavior was clearly: "I'm sick of seeing UNWANTED & UNKNOWN black people in my neighborhood, they don't belong here", so "papers please" process began!! Zimmerman exited his safe car, called 911 (as an alibi) and reported one biased comment after another: this GUY looks like he's up to no good (WRONG: he was a child in a new environment trying to navigate home safely in the rain, duh VISIBILITY issues would also be in progress), he's looking around at different houses (UM I do this all the time in my own neighborhood, it's called awareness of environment and even moreso if it's raining), he looks like he's on drugs or something (I now wonder if Zimmerman was drunk, high, etc. because everything about that night makes absolutely no sense and doesn't add up), AND MOST DAMAGING THING: "they" always get away.

Who is "they"? RIGHT THERE, Zimmerman determined Trayvon Martin was a "they" problem, an UNDESIRABLE with ABSOLUTELY NO VALUE. If there were prior burglaries in the area, wouldn't it have made more sense to wait until the CHILD arrived to an actual home and catch him in the act of an ASSUMED burglary and be the HERO OF THE NIGHT instead of a child predator, or simply wait until the child approached a home? WHEN, OH WHEN, is walking and HOW WALKING and with a certain attire a crime? If so, pimps and Ku Klux Klan in full robes should be taken out left and right given their KNOWN treatment of women and non-whites and jews, respectively.

The entire situation was controlled by George Zimmerman, how he made conscious decision to exit his SAFE vehicle then falsely claim his life was at risk to justify killing a child he assumed was a "they". The normal thing to have done: stay in your car and let the professionals handle Zimmerman's (biased) observations, especially if he felt there was a risk of danger from "they", and hopefully apologize to Trayvon Martin's father for the misunderstanding that the professionals would have discovered was created solely by Zimmerman.

Zimmerman when told by police dispatcher, "we don't need you to do that" (as in follow the child), Zimmerman replied with "Okay" BUT preceded to follow the child anyway and with anxiety and anger in his heart, NOT with any intent to obtain truth or protect safety of neighbors. And what if Zimmerman's gun had shot a neighbor who may have also been on the scene or Trayvon Martin's father who may have saw what was happening, walked out and approached Zimmerman from behind while he was packing a loaded gun and confronting a child with anger and rage?

What kind of neighborhood watch doesn't first assume person walking ONLY isn't walking to a home of someone visiting? Again, Zimmerman immediately assumed Trayvon Martin was a problem, a "they". Never once did it cross his mind: this person could be a guest of a resident, and subsequently WAIT for that to be revealed in a respectful way. But George Zimmerman determined that only X-number of blacks were allowed in that community and those blacks must dress and act in a desirable way for a biased clown like Zimmerman, or Zimmerman will weed them (the dreaded "they") out by any means necessary.


George Zimmerman became judge, juror and executioner, which undermines basic civil rights and defeats the purpose of fighting 2+ unfunded wars for the rights of others if our own citizens take the law into their own hands because of their OWN biases ONLY.

George Zimmerman also desired to become a police officer. Unfortunately, through Trayvon Martin, other nightmares have been spared because Zimmerman will no longer be allowed to patrol or "watch", other than watch his back, literally, in prison, where ACTUAL threats, like he is to others on the street, reside. And now in prison, Zimmerman will actually have to learn which non-whites are not a threat to his safety and well-being regardless of how they're dressed or walking, something he should have taken the opportunity to do while he was a free man, i.e., see and speak to persons without preconceived bias and animosity and get to know first and foremost -- becoming a part of the solution, not problem.

Instead, Zimmerman chose to label and group persons unknown, through EVERY fault of his own, as "they" for his "convenience" and justification which seems to satisfy Fox News, the 23/7 propaganda network. How'd that work out for Zimmerman?]]> In The News http://itamra.com/blah/index.php?entry=entry120411-174754 Tamra M Burgess Wed, 11 Apr 2012 21:47:54 GMT http://itamra.com/blah/comments.php?y=12&m=04&entry=entry120411-174754 3 Feb 2012 - The Twilight Zone http://itamra.com/blah/index.php?entry=entry120204-125410
by the 4th call from a DIFFERENT number w/ the same recording, pressed 1 to speak to someone and told them the person calling died so not possible for a sale. person then asked if I would be interested :-| HUNG UP. a new number called back w/in an hour. unreal

THEN called by a Sal Gambino - yep caller ID said Sal Gambino w/305-Florida number. ruh-roh, thinking did I accidentally pick up a duffle bag stuffed w/mob cash, guns, drugs or bookie numbers on the way home. ;) Sal, however, identifies himself as "T-Mobile" says, he's working on 212-810 numbers in my area. WITHIN 1 SECOND: what repair guy calls EVERY SINGLE CUSTOMER while working on lines and how da hell would he get repair work done?! the rest of his sentence while I was quiet: I just wanna know what types of use this phone is for because I'll have to disable your line for awhile while it's being worked on. HUNG UP instantly. all Sal, oops I mean "T-Mobile" heard from me: hello and click

instantly called T-mobile only to find out they've outsourced their support to Philippines!!! (more US jobs lost and they were 1 of the few 100% US companies w/ US support). the rep tells me, that call was part of fraud they're aware of and to notify my credit card companies. OF WHAT?! what information did person steal? she's basically asking me to do the equivalent of calling NYPD and saying: someone stole something, then NYPD asking me OBVIOUSLY, "what did they steal?", and my response would be: I don't know, but simply told to call you. WTF?! :o

THEN the weirdness didn't end there. on way home, went to grocery/mall area (where I saw wrecked car off main road and met related persons (cousin and best friend) who told all of us staring what happened:

related story: www.nydailynews.com)... ok back to rest of weirdness:

just a few blocks from grocery/mall, some guy stops, stares, blows a kiss and puckers THEN goes "you're beautiful" and just stared. I just stared back :|, said nothing but thinking, ok what do I have on me to kill this mofo just in case. :o :o :o

he was creepy, and even more creepy, he was carrying a large bucket. I immediately thought: he's probably carrying a head in the bucket. I'm like Brad Pitt in Seven: WHAT'S IN THE BUCKET, OH GAWD, WHAT'S IN THE BUCKETTTT??!! :o LOL

(if embedded video isn't appearing, view on youtube directly: youtu.be/1giVzxyoclE)


I said nothing, SO HE WANTED TO KNOW IF I WAS OK, because I didn't respond to him :-| I'm thinking "does that puckering up kisses work w/ women and if so can you point out the crackhead it worked on? thank you". :|

but RIGHT across from me was a precinct, my options: get as far away from this mofo as possible and closest to the precinct, at least I'd be on camera before he started his Hannibal activities. :)

he could have just said "hey beautiful" and kept it moving, but the stop, stare and pucker was creepy especially since he himself looked creepy as hell.

oh, and the fraud numbers calling in case you have block service which I just realized I have: 401-365-6307, 910-509-5008, 213-550-3111, 440-519-6712, 260-399-4151 - all ghost numbers, if you call it back only plays same recording and all call w/ different financial fraud scams: lower credit card debt (have none), lower mortgage (no longer have one), erase IRS debt (have none)

the goal is to get your full name, social AND any credit card number or bank/routing info by end of call. somehow, they do have your name from phishing something but that's all they have, they need the other puzzle pieces.

crazy if anyone does purchase something like that over the phone, because they've called so many times, during one call, I tried asking for their company name (couldn't provide), a phone number to reach them back in case we get disconnected (slick, hehe), they couldn't provide. ding, ding, ding - FRAUD! or they get slick: well "did you want to lower your interest rate or not?" EYES GET BIG, like I know this mofo did NOT deflect a valid question w/ desperate sales pitch?!

if they can't give you their DBA/biz name OR a valid phone number, hang up, it's a scam. even fake creditors call people now because of economy but people rarely ask: can you give me your business name and number to call you back?

and that was one trippy Twilight Zone-ish day. :|]]> Blahs, In The News, Humor http://itamra.com/blah/index.php?entry=entry120204-125410 Tamra M Burgess Sat, 04 Feb 2012 17:54:10 GMT http://itamra.com/blah/comments.php?y=12&m=02&entry=entry120204-125410 Grover Norquist, American Tax Reform and censoring of actual American taxpayers http://itamra.com/blah/index.php?entry=entry110724-161200 http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=134874383263514, but I don't think that would have mattered if taxpayers visited Grover Norquist's public page and expressed concern over his King-like hold over elected officials on any other day.

But one thing I did notice that was extremely disturbing: Norquist and/or admin removed the posts of anyone not in favor of Norquist, yet Norquist declares himself a public figure and represents an organization with the word "American" in its title, AND organization was created on behalf of "taxpayers" with taxpayer funding. To be more honest, Norquist's page should have a Jim Crow-type "Conservatives Only" sign and his organization should be called "Treasonists Who Don't Want To Pay Their Fair Share of Taxes But Insist Upon Utilizing Government For Personal Profit".

After noticing one person after another banned, I decided to use an account to post a message in praise of Norquist. Here is that message, which should have raised the eyebrow of admin banning and blocking persons completely from his public page:

see post of "Michelle Martin" (at bottom on 1st image)

Post details with link which when clicked will display content removed message (however, original message is still available through Facebook's database records thus why I made sure to copy the link with message ID):

what should have raised admin's eyebrow: referencing a notorious Adolph Hitler insider, Diana Mitford, while expressing hate and loathing for liberals (in the same way that Mitford hated Jews). even if admin didn't know who Diana Mitford was, the fact that I would be allowed to post a comment expressing hate and loathing for liberals (persons different from them) was disturbing.

It was hard interacting with persons who didn't support Norquist who were clearly offended by the post because I wanted them to know the post was intended to show the true nature of admin banning persons from public page. But I was so glad persons who replied asked the questions they did. And I noticed there was no negative comment from Stewie Favre, the resident Goebbels-troll attacking anyone not in favor of Norquist and allowed to remain on page while persons being attacked were simply expressing their entitled free speech as the taxpayers who made Norquist's wealth possible! The persons attacked by Stewie Favre were banned.

I waited to see how long my original post above would remain. It was allowed to remain while persons who posted immediately before and after it were banned and throughout the night.

I decided to wait until the following day to expose the "censoring failure". Persons were still being banned from the public page. I posted the following messages today:








(Facebook message ID for above messages: http://www.facebook.com/grovernorquist/ ... 8237913040)

Sometime shortly after, I was banned from site and posts removed, including original post http://www.facebook.com/grovernorquist/ ... 3724613158- site scrubbed clean of their original support and tolerance for a message which referenced a Hitler insider. Had I said nothing, the post would have remained permanently.

Our elected officials signed a pledge to Grover Norquist, persons we elect to office to represent our best interest not work against us. I find it disturbing that our leaders signed a pledge to Norquist as if he's some kind of King, and now find it even more disturbing after seeing the tolerance for messages in praise of a Hitler insider, while banning all those, again, responsible for Norquist's wealth through government.]]> In The News, Politics & Society http://itamra.com/blah/index.php?entry=entry110724-161200 Tamra M Burgess Sun, 24 Jul 2011 20:12:00 GMT http://itamra.com/blah/comments.php?y=11&m=07&entry=entry110724-161200 Capitalism, how well it worked for me! http://itamra.com/blah/index.php?entry=entry090816-133628 I received this e-mail from someone who truly hates Obama and calls Obama a socialist, liar and incompetent fraud. They're comfortable w/assets (home, cars, etc.), now in retirement from corporate america & also a veteran with benefits.


The object of the game is to destroy American capitalism by having the government take over everything!

Tokens include a bus, a teleprompter, a sprig of arugula and a waffle iron.

Wanna play? No???

Too bad, you're already playing... And quite frankly, in this game, nobody wins!



My response:


I should send this to the Rockefellers who sure played a major part in tanking capitalism big time. Venture caps raised hundreds of millions annually including during war and height of nationwide high gas prices. Purpose of raising money (which came from all major banks): to invest in this country, create jobs, produce exports, stimulate revenue, etc. Yet, nothing to show from it.

Where is the money? Bernie Madoff is one of many frauds that has been and will continue to be exposed within the next year. Their game version of capitalism. And many of the venture caps are linked to lobbyists [and Capitol Hill], bankers (including top banks bailed out) [see list in above game caricature].

Everyone blamed Bush, i.e., the war tanked economy, deficit. But the war exposed that Senate and Congress just sat around collecting sponsors and looked the other way. Revenue wasn't coming in while store shelves were filled with Made in China (Walmart) and Israel imports (where investors are now pouring their money into).

And now with blaming Obama, the same people who got a pass for 8-years will enjoy another 4-years of the same - do nothing, get kick backs and sit on their butts to wait for the next big commerce like slavery (cotton, sugar), steel, auto industry & computers. The new smokescreen pass: healthcare. Meanwhile, years ago, Microsoft and banks, with approval from congress/senate outsourced* thousands of jobs overseas, and continue to do so. I find it hard to believe that a call center couldn't be set up in poorest economic states here!

Capitalism: it sure has worked well, huh? I lost my assets from capitalism in 2000 courtesy of Venrock.com, a Rockefeller investment company, which is even more wealthy now after past 8-years. Go figure.

If I were a private insurer, I'd raise rates immediately, profit all I could before bankruptcy sets in. My insurance company went bankrupt, but was bailed out. So I'm paying twice, while my insurance company execs got bonuses for failing. Capitalism. It sure worked out well for me!

Now to research socialist [healthcare] countries, like I guess UK and Canada and see how they're doing economically w/capitalism. Hmmm ;)

******
There were ZERO laws to protect me, after ALL the taxes I paid. And because of my income, my taxes were 40-50% of income being single with 0 dependents, and not a chance of owning a decent property in a non-crack area in California. Outraged in 2000, I began calling for action. EVERY SINGLE THING I WORKED FOR since age 15, I lost! What I discovered: Rockefellers, who could have easily stopped the bleeding with change from their couches or car seats, were connected to the Clintons, especially Winthrop Rockefeller. Sen. Jay Rockefeller's office: no comment. Basically, beat it, I don't really give a fuck about what you worked for. Just pay your taxes so I can keep my perky job! And the silence from others was deafening while I was literally waiting to die!!!! :|

Meanwhile, the frauds, including Venrock.com, David Hook (hookpartners.com) and MasseyBurch.com, are still collecting money and are beyond comfortable, and that includes the ponzi schemer who was paid money by the Rockefellers to go away!

It should also be noted that Venrock and many venture caps increased their staff since 2001. This industry hasn't suffered one bit. Follow the money trail to find out why!

And now, many 1st and 2nd generation european immigrants and their counterparts, die hard confederates who trashed republican party (with direction from Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, Sean Hannity, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, Glenn Beck and David Duke), are complaining 24/7 about politics AFTER damage has already been DONE over and over right in front of their faces since 1999. But moreso complaining because things got so bad from catastrophic capitalistic failures, their worse fear came to life: a black man is now President of the United States!

Their complaints about "their" taxes are falling on deaf ears this way. During the period of their massive influx to U.S., minorities paid taxes, including unfairly locally, but had ZERO government rights: no right to vote, eat or exist in public places, buy property in non-minority areas, nor even had the right to live as we saw in the cases of Dr. Martin L. King and Medgar Evers (a World War II vet also discriminated against within the military).

These complainers are the same people who believe our country will rebound on its own, i.e., wait for some next commerce breakthrough which will require extensive exploitation of cheap labor to profit from. :o Then again, after 10+ more years in Iraq and Afghanistan, everyone will either be dead or too tired to care.

After the nonsense I've been through while watching this country become dismantled since 1999 by both greed and descendants of the lunatics who took over St. Tammany Hall, I AM about ready to wear a BHO armband with an American flag and number 44 on it just to piss off the clueless casually displaying swastikas over nonsense. Because I believed in working to get what you want because no one will take care of you, no one will rescue you (NO ONE didn't). Only to discover that an elite group of people took care of each other and GOT PAID with tax breaks along with bonuses, golden parachutes and bailouts for failing at their jobs! While those with comforts spend their days spreading rage and hate in a dying effort to control lives of others (gay marriage, abortion, separate and unequal, etc.). Or worse, use their energy to capitalize by selling fear of an unknown future after selectively ignoring the past: Michelle Malkin. :(

GOOD RIDDENCE!!!



Rockefeller & Co CEO dies in apparent suicide
Tue Sep 15, 2009 4:48pm EDT

By Svea Herbst-Bayliss

BOSTON (Reuters) - James McDonald, a prominent adviser to wealthy families as chief executive of investment management group Rockefeller & Co, died in an apparent suicide, on Sunday, local authorities said on Tuesday.

McDonald, 56, was found with a single gunshot wound in his car near a strip mall in Dartmouth, Massachusetts on Sunday afternoon. Police are still investigating.

"The preliminary investigation concludes that this was an apparent suicide," said Gregg Miliote, a spokesman for Bristol County District Attorney Sam Sutter.

McDonald was credited with growing Rockefeller & Co, the New York-based family office established by oil tycoon John D. Rockefeller in 1882 to manage the dynasty's assets, into a broader investment management company with roughly $28 billion in assets.

Known as a perfectionist who drove himself and his employees hard, McDonald lived in New York City where people who worked with him said he was equally at home in corporate boardrooms and the city's most exclusive social circles.

Friends described McDonald, who earned degrees from Harvard and the University of Virginia, as a brilliant thinker who grasped difficult concepts quickly and had a vision to expand the company.

Several people who knew him professionally said on Tuesday that they were shocked by the news, noting they had no knowledge about any specific problems at Rockefeller & Co that might have prompted the death.

A spokesman at the Securities and Exchange Commission declined to comment on whether McDonald or the firm was facing any inquiries. In Massachusetts, where the state securities regulator has waged an aggressive campaign against investment advisers who were cheating clients, there is no investigation into McDonald or the company, a spokesman for Secretary of State William Galvin said.

The people, however, spoke of the mounting pressures McDonald faced while running an investment management business during exceedingly difficult financial market conditions.

Earlier this year, McDonald was one of the directors who left the board of lender CIT Group.

The directors cited the increased demands related to CIT becoming a bank holding company in December 2008 and time constraints related to each of their other professional commitments and responsibilities as their reasons for leaving, according to a CIT proxy.

McDonald was married with a son and daughter and had homes on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan and in Boston.

Rockefeller & Co confirmed the death in a short statement but declined to give further details. It said Austin Shapard, the company's chief operating officer and chief financial officer, was now running the company.

Then the news today of Farrah Fawcett's death followed 2 hours later by the death of Michael Jackson, who had ironically died before Farrah but the information wasn't released until later in the day.

Farrah was an icon to both girls and boys of my generation. All the girls dressed like her, right down to the hair style if they could manage it. All the boys fantasized about her and many owned the iconic Farrah poster.

Who doesn't remember the first time hearing The Jackson 5's Rocking Robin, A-B-C or Never Can Goodbye? The songs were always associated w/good times and happy memories, the lazy days of summer or playing games outdoors. We all grew up w/him, and even saw his transformation, but no one could touch his music no matter what was said about him. I still like one of his later releases, Rock My World.
