Thank you, fechter. But is is not a way to go.
I'm permanently damaged emotionally and physically: truly an example, for all, of bad police work gone, very, very wrong.
The story became so complex, that it is best to let it lay.
Perhaps, and I do often dream unrealistically, someday I'll get some compensation for days in hell-hole jail,
for that assault and...it just goes on.
I did not expect to "beat the rap", so vile it was, so...you are so toally MARKED for harassment once into the system.
Even the Coral Gables Police have yet to contact me with details about HOW I can get my Lime's wheel paid for;
I have nothing but a 'case number', and that took a half dozen pass-around phone calls to cajole. And nothing may happen,
she may just go on her merry way. I know for sure, I will be fitting the bright green flashing valve caps and lighting the Lime at night, like a geek-o-bike
that all will say of: "he's nuts."
Most bikers ride at night here, a few with tiny blinky lights, but many black men and women, on old beathers, no reflectors, and in dark clothes;
the cops don't GIVE them free reflectors and safety lectures: they steal and steam roller over their bikes, instead, in one instance I can vouch for:
my donated '98 Giant that "T" got use of for less than a month before MCP destroyed the bike =in his hidden view=. Black and at night, you can see distances...
Time for postitive thoughts! I know I cannot now be "harmed" again by the system.
I want to help make the system better, instead of just lazing in this chair.
But foremost, if (big dream) I get a settlement, a stipend, for instance, I want to pass a few dollars on to ES
The rest: to live on, support my family, and to set up a volunteer program as my siggie's bottom sort of premises.
I'll try. Work and reality are generally both out of reach for me. I am a strange and difficult person.
YOU and others here have been rocks of stablity; tens of thousands of hours of monitoring and housekeeping...for what?
What get you from E.S?
For me, it's a virtual home. I should help to pay the mortgage costs on the home, at least, that would be a hope.
I will never be nor want to be any sort of moderator nor administrator at this or any other forum of note, but for one:
It may be named "copsandrobbersandangels@freeforums.com" but as yet, it is not even started.
Nor may its social premise be workable: a place for exmates to blow off frustrations (they have it BAD), and for good cops
to sooth worn, damaged people, and for "bad' cops to redeem and learn empathy; reduce recidivism, etc.
:| No harm now can come in trying new ways, other than I get capped as in....
Thanks,
'way to go', fecter',
the other cornerstone of this place,
and long you worked, both here, and for the good of of its lost
VVVVVsplatttt, predecessor.
