A mistake

is when you add 2 and 2 and get 5.
When you gun down an innocent person....I believe you should get to look for a new job...
Law Enforcement should not condone mistakes, even "Tragic Mistakes", when an innocent person is shot and killed.

Really! You can get fired from Fucking McDonald's for much less...is life so cheap where you live that an officer's so called career is more important than a human life?

I call bullshit

wow...I completely forgot I'm a Veteran and won't need to sign up for ACA!

I tried to sign up for ACA and could not do it. I was kinda nervous about the cost because last year our family earned about 75,000 dollars. Of course most of that was liquidated retirement for me and my wife. We only realized a fraction of that because of penalties and taxes. At the time we really needed the money because we had both been fired from our jobs.
So on paper we would probably have to pay more for insurance than we could actually afford. We are both working now, but I am only working part time...so our actual income is maybe 45 annum.
Long story short...did not sign up for ACA (couldn't)...VA sent me a letter reminding me I'm a Veteren...now I am signed up for the VA hospital...

dodged that bullet...

not too bad if it is true....I went back and recalculated. I apologize...it must be my painful tooth,

Unfortunately I use my Powers for evil...

I wound up getting a job with another "conservative" radio station. I produce two shows. One during the week which is a very conservative morning show.
Fortunately the other show is a gardening show on the weekend, which is kind of cool.
I tried to get a job at public radio and some other "Liberal" venues, but those jobs did not pan out.
After a year of unemployment I took this job. They were the only ones who would hire me. All I can say is "boy radio sure has changed"
One of my jobs is doing banners and such for facebook and webpages/social media. Here's an example of my work...if anyone needs some work for liberal webpages or whatnot...please let me know.
