Problem with Starting a Business

I am a film major that will be graduate in the fall. The problem is I am ready to start my business but sometimes procrastination gets the better of me. I would start on a script and set it aside for another day. I have great ideas but that is as far as it goes. I can get access to equipment. There is not problem with that now. Maybe I can work with some of the writers at University of Memphis. Another that I have is homework is my first option. Graduation is just around the corner for me and I can not wait for that special day. Boatwright Productions will be establised in the near future but it seems that I am running out of time. Everytime I come up with an idea someone have already taking it and put the idea on film. This I will be ahead of the game and write it and produce the movies as fast as they come in my head.

Where is the Justice?

The police chief of West Memphis, Arkansas claimed that the council members who argued about the Farrow case, was nothing but criminals and he would see to it that the council members would be arrested at any cost. It seems strange that the police chief should mention criminals on the council seat. One of the municipal court judge have a criminal record of their own. This judge have been arrested for DUI, drug parphanellia, and wreckless driving. During the wreckless driving the judge hit a child and the child was killed on impact. The judge was convicted and he spends his weekends in jail. The worst part is the judge kept his seat. He goes to jail on the weekends and sits on the bench during the weekdays. Maybe Paudert was talking about the judge and not the council members. In other words West Memphis had this problem about corrupt officials before the Farrow case. The problem exist in the court system and police station. So tell me who is going to police the police. Sad to say this is a problem for the city not anyone elses' but I am still begging for HELP!

Media and people taking away rights.

I wonder what happened to innocent until proven guilty. Does this only apply to people outside the University of Memphis basketball team. How quick are we to judge a matter without knowing the real situation. Just because a person has been accused of something does not mean that person is guilty of the charge. I am not saying that he is not guilty either but what I am saying is that no one should accuse a person if a trial have not proceded in a case. In this country, just because a person is found guilty by law does not mean they are guilty at hand. Under certain circumstances, other players have been charged for assault. The problem is we do not know what really happened during that incident. How do you know if the other party did not start the fight? Of course we do not know that situation. The other party that claimed the assault occured did not give a written statement to the Helmsman nor any other paper. Maybe by law, a reporter should recognize both sides of the story. If they do not obide in this law the reporter should not be able to work in the media again.

Borders

The borders in America should be open to all Hispanics. Have we forgotten our history on this subject? What if the Indians would have cut off the borders during the European settlement. Well, atleast they would have kept thier land and most of them would have survived from the diseases the Europeans passed on to the Indians. America would have a different aspect of history in that manner. Africans and caucasians would reside in Great Britain. Most of us would have a deep english dialect and would have a queen and Parliament rule over us. Some how America seems to forget the problems that was set on them from the past. Why should we treat other people different from how we would want to be treated. I know that people might think that Mexicans and other Latinos are taking over jobs but always remember jobs are moving across seas. Businesses are owned by Americans who are not Hispanic so who can be blame for cheap labor practices. It should be against the law to pay that amount of wages to anyone.

History Really Repeats Itself

As I sit in my history class some strange vision came over me. I started to realize that history really repeats itself but it always come in a different area. History will transform in another place but have the same situation. The Vietnam War began in the late fifties. At that time our leaders thought that communism would become a big problem. Well that is what American government wanted us to think but later on citizens found out that the Vietnam War was about money. Now we come to the fuure. The Iraqi war was about terrorism and later the world found out that weapons of mass destruction was literally destroyed years before the war began. Remember Haliburton, the company that produces weapons for American militaries. Well the former CEO is better known as our vice president, Cheney. Sadaam Hussien was once America's allie during the 80,s. Reagan and Bush Sr. knew of the killings and murders that went on during the reign of this so called mad man but they did not care at that time. Where did Hussien get the weapons to use on his own people anyway. You guessed it. The Reagan cronies of America. So if you want to tell the future, don't call a psychic read your history. It is bound to come back the way it left.

Strange Liberal

I am somewhat like a liberal but there are some issues that would make me seem strange. I think everyone should have health care. It should not matter how much money you make. How can a person get off welfare if jobs keep moving across seas. The jobs that did not move have laid thousands of people off. Unemployment checks can only go so far and food stamps can not pay for mortages, light bills, and etc. Social security checks will not exist because of the deficit we have today. The deficit has reached the highest in the history of America. Now we are borrowing money from China. There is a ressesion in the United States and if it goes any higher business problems will occur. The only power we have is the military. Do we have to fight with everyone. Oil should not be in high demand. Scientist have found away to stop using oil but for some reason the government ignores them. There are many issues that have changed the United States and this generation can make a difference.

The Presidency

McCain has the same dialect as George Bush Jr. Remember he also argeed with the Iraqi war. Did the Republicans find weapons of mass destruction. Maybe the military will give a horses butt if McCain talks about compensation. McCain also voted to take away benifits from the soldiers. Now that seems like kick in the butt does it. I have a big question? I thought the senator McCain spent time in the service. If he did not learn from the past then how can he teach people from the future. Do we really want another republican in office for 4 more years. The last 2 administrations spent money as fast as the poles are melting from global warming. Yes, our great country is borrowing money from China. Our deficit is larger than life if you think life is important. What will it take to start a change. It will take atleast 2 terms to straighten out this mess. It is time to make a change. If we do not change America, the republicans will destroy all of us. Should we have an age limit to become president. McCain might not last the whole term. If you are over 70 then you should retire. Well, atleast he will recieve his social security. When I reach that age social security will not exist.

Thaddues Matthews

Although I do disagree in the tactics of Thaddues in some cases, I wonder what really happened to the NAACP. The NAACP has helped the community in the past but it does seem that they run from very serious issues. In the city of West Memphis, Arkansas discrimination has been a problem for many years. My brother went to the NAACP to file a complaint against the West Memphis, Arkansas police department. Yes, as you could have guest it my brother was harassed by the police. The NAACP in Memphis told him that they do not commit to those kind of cases or incidents. My brother does not get in any type of law trouble. He works in the Army Reserve and he is a Gulf War Veteran. The police pulled him over and claimed that he was trying to flee from the police. Even with witnesses he still lost the case. They roughed him up in the process. The NAACP did not want to get involved. It seems that if it does not have anything to do with a death or money issues, the problem of discrimination does not exist in the United States. Please do not take this the wrong way. The NAACP does help certain people in different ways but a change is in order. It is strange that if a person says discriminating things the NAACP will fight till the end to get that person fired but if that person do the actions of discriminating the NAACP run from the issue at hand. I AM NOT AGAINST THE NAACP BUT THIER PIORITES NEEDS TO BE DEALT WITH IN A BETTER MANNER.

Abortion issues

Even though I am a man that is probably looking from the outside in, I believe in abortion in only certain situations. All because the law says it is legal does not mean it is right. Remember slavery was also legal in America at one time. If that was not wrong then maybe we do not know right from wrong. The child should have a choice in this matter. For an example, what if someone would ask you if you wanted to be born or killed. I forgot the child does not have that choice and niether would you. The woman should have the choice but what about the father. What choice does he have. If a father wanted the mother of the child to keep the child, would she go through the pregnancy. If she did not want to have anything to do with the father of the child would she give the child up for adoption? The father could raise the child on his own if he wished but would he have that wish? In other words the father does not have any rights to the child until the baby is born. He has no say so during the pregnancy. What if he wanted to give up his rights during the pregnancy? Could this be possible? He would be less than a man if he did. I have 2 beautiful daughters and would not trade them for the world. They are what you might say daddys' girls. Abortion should only be an option if the pregnancy endangers the mother or the during an ultra sound the docter finds out the child is under developed. The child might not have enough limbs to survive outside the wound. In some cases, babies does not develop the head, the brain, without intestines or even worse intestines outside the body. Maybe abortions would seem like a better solution. One thing I really disagree with abortion. It should not be used as birth control.
