Are You Picking Up A Snake ?

11/30/2011

1 Comment

 
We often hear about a cycle of violence. 
This is when a victim is hurt mentally or physically, the abuser then goes away for a while and then contacts the victim with what seems to be remorse, "I'm sorry, I'll never do it again. 
It happens again, again, the abuser is sorry and there's another "honeymoon".
Each time this happens the abuse escalates.  She's sure he will eventually change, but he doesn't. 
The wait for the change is sometimes a death sentence for the victim.
There was once a traveler going up the mountain on foot.  At the bottom, he met a snake. 
The snake begged:  "Please take me up the mountain, I'm so tired and you could just put me in your pocket." 
The traveler said," Oh, no, you're a snake and you will bite me." The snake was so pathetic and said, "Oh, I would never do that, if you were so kind to me and just put me in your pocket .
I'll never do that." 
So, the traveler picked up the snake and started up the mountain.  When he got to the top and was taking the snake out of his pocket, the poisonous snake bit him. 
The traveler cried in pain and crushing disappointment:  "You promised you wouldn't bite me!"
The snake sneered and looked him in the eye and said:  "You idiot, you knew what I was when you picked me up!"
Are you picking up a snake?
How many times should you pick up a snake before you learn?
Please learn sooner than later.

FIRST DOMESTIC VIOLENCE SURVIVOR SUES USA AND WINS

11/18/2011

We can see from this video clip that domestic violence is not taken seriously by those who are trusted to   protect women.   This is the case of  Lenahan v. USA.   This illustrates how far, particularly domestic violence victims need to go just to get their basic rights.  In my book,  Who Killed Lana B?, you will see how often and to what lengths my daughter Lisa experienced this up to and including her brutal murder.  In this case Lenahan's three children were killed by their father .  She feels, as I do, that education at a very young age will be the springboard for change.  That is why I was thrilled when one of my readers told me that Barnes and Noble had it categorized as a text book.

This is a national case result that should have made national headlines.  Imagine, the first time a domestic violence survivor was acknowledged by a federal human rights comission as having her rights denied.  Click here to see the video.

LOCAL PRESS SHUNS PRESS RELEASES OF MY BOOK,-- WHY?

11/6/2011

While getting good response and exposure to my book, “Who Killed Lana B?” in my new home state of Florida and areas outside South Bend, Mishawaka and Elkhart, the major newspapers in South Bend and Elkhart,  Indiana refused to print press releases on my  book.

What does that tell you? 

Some things they would like to keep from the public? 

Some things not good Chamber of Commerce material? 
                                           
Some people pull shady stuff?.

These are the things you need to know. 

During the time of the big story and my work on behalf of domestic violence victims, I was the media darling.

That was when I had to be somewhat "politically correct". 

The book is not, and I am so happy to be able to divulge some of the "secrets of the system". 

Take advantage and learn  from Lisa.
