Who decides how many must die?
And why does it matter what chemical they die from and the total number who will die... before it is decided what will be done.
If only the Family Dollar store can sell "skittles" and only after scanning your ID... is that really the best way to "track" the druggies?
Watch what happens to this girl in only a few months, on this "legal" form of meth... better known as SKITTLES!
I am not an expert on drugs, but those "in the know" say most people already know Ecstasy, or "X" is meth based! However, they still take it, or encourage girls to take it? There are some diet pills and a few other cold medicine combinations that are deadly in large doses as well. In my day I knew of a few people who smelled airplane glue or spray paint. (We called them idiots, and most of them soon had enough brain damage that was right). Seldom did most of those kids go on to lead productive lives or reproduce, so the problem kind of solved itself right? (Not really, but they were only a small percentage. underage drinking received far more attention). In this day the kids have many more choices at an even younger age. Some even begin stealing from their own medicine cabinets in grades younger than middle school. Randal told me he knew of a "barter system" going in the Deadwood grade school many years ago. He gave out a "shopping list" with bigger words than anybody could even pronounce. Most of them traded strong pain killer pills for poor quality pot that nobody else would even buy! I ask Randal if he got extra credit for that... He took me somewhat serious and said... "well actually there was one teacher" I STOPPED HIM, "I don't wanna know" I said. (I have a half dozen grandchildren in grade school right now)!
I hate to say this... but that comment NOW makes me part of the problem! (It was just that I did not want to deal with it). Somehow not knowing the name of that teacher, or knowing if they were still there made it better! I do not know if that is an attempt to be ignorant, or a sign that I am still too ignorant to live in a wild and crazy town like this one. If that is the case I should take everyone I love and go live in a cave somewhere... Or maybe, I could try to fix the problem!
A wise man who actually did live in a cave once told me "If your name is not Jesus you are probably going to die one day, and then you will be judged... You will not be judged harshly on many of the things that you did. However, you will be severely judged on all things you did not do" was his message of death. For a long time I did not understand that, but I was both young and ignorant then. (Stage 1). When the agent told me how few the number, and how great the cost. I did not understand. But I was still young! (Stage 2). When I first learned of this tragedy involving those young girls I spoke up too quickly and did not understand the reactions of many. (Stage 3). When I figured out the problem and tried my solution... I may have reached "Stage 4" if that is possible! The man in the cave had explained how in places like America there were four stages of life. STAGE 1- You don't know what you don't know. STAGE 2- You don't know what you know. STAGE 3- You know what you don't know... And of course the final stage when you know what you know, but you don't care because nobody listens to you anymore, so you just go live in a cave! I ask the translator if this old man had always lived in this cave? She said No, but here life is short and simple. And there is only three stages in this country too! STAGE 1 is the long one- I wipe your butt, you kick mine. STAGE 2 is much shorter- we both kick each other in the butt. STAGE 3 can be long or short- You wipe my butt, and I kick yours! (I already knew, in that country, at that time... most people were allowed only one child! I also knew if that child was not a boy there was normally nobody there for you, when it was time to change your diapers)! My question to her was simple and direct... Then why does he have to live in this cave? Her answer was just as simple... He use to live in my country!
When I originally placed the first of this damning information about a few young girls being offered up to important old men for support or SILENCE, that is all I heard in return. When I began to speak openly about somebody addicting these kids to cocaine and describing wicked sex or girls dying in rehab before 18, I had people telling me to stop... It was hurting their ears! (I wanted to kick them in the butt... until somebody in my own family said it to me). I was told a lot of it was hard to stomach and the rest of it was hard to believe. But I still had trouble understanding why so many did not want to deal with it or even cared enough to try to stop it. In time I found only those personally affected... and then only those who could not run away, were my best chance. Then they begin to get hurt and killed. I also found some who were safely away and had recovered, or should we say... had accepted the outcome. I also found girls who were now over 18 and could sign their own release for pictures or video interviews about the bad times. I do not know how many will be used before this is over. That will depend on the results. But nobody needs to remind me how much shame and embarrassment is involved... we are all embarrassed already! We are already ashamed!
ALL of you who REMAIN ignorant of this problem, should also be ashamed... very ashamed!
Maybe the Kellar people will live forever and never be judged. Maybe there is no God either!
I now live in somewhat of a "cave" out of fear... And there is no room for you here with me.
More importantly... where do you think you live? And do you think you will live forever?
