Today in history, Amnesty International took its mandate from the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which says that all people have the right to rise above national, religious, cultural and ideological boundaries. Amnesty International is most famous for its promotion of human rights. Working towards rights in fair trials of prisoners, ending capital punishment and torture. In 1961 they had over 1,000 Volunteer groups in 28 countries.

As it is said, Everyone is presumed innocent until proven guilty. This day in age everyone is Guilty and has to prove the nation of their innocence. That's how it is. Your innocent until your day in court, were you get a fair trial. Or you should. In America they over publicise cases and the people being tried may or may not have done whatever crime they are being accused off. Sometimes they don't even have REAL true evidence proving a guilty verdict.  Those people just assume they are guilty because the news casters, reporters and news papers say so.

You have a right to a fair and honest trial but how is that ever going to happen if the media over publicises cases on the news.
The Top Story now in the news is the Casey Anthony. Again over publicised. Everyone is pushing to believe she did it. They release everything about this case before she even went into court. I understand a child was murdered. But maybe she wasn't murder. Maybe deep down it was some freak accident people do weird stuff. Maybe the little girl got hurt maybe she died and this women just didn't know what to do. What would you do if your kid got killed around you accidentally and it just couldn't be proven as a true accident. shes 25 years old. This case is like what a year old. At any age, people all think the same if something like that ever happened. Your gut says, oh my god what am i going to do? Maybe she freaked out. Went into some freak survival mode. Its allot of maybes. Maybe she did kill her. but, maybe she didn't. We really aren't going to know for sure because its been given away before she ever had a chance in defending herself. Everyone deserves a fair and equal right to a media free trial.

As it says online on yahoo.com  "Prosecutors contend Anthony suffocated Caylee with duct tape. Anthony's defense team says the child drowned accidentally in a family pool. If convicted, she could be sentenced to death."

MAYBE, the little girl did drown. Maybe she did, we just don't know. Her mother might have freaked out. People do weird and odd things when they think someone is going to send them to jail or put to death for something. My guess is, it happened she freaked. and took the girl to the woods and made it look like someone took her kid and killed her.  Yeah its stupid. yeah she did a really stupid thing. I don't think she deserves to die for a maybe. She did some stupid stuff after it did happen. Party's, drinking and acting like nothing happened. Maybe in her mind it didn't happen. The mind is a complex thing. I just don't think she deserves to die. She wont get a unbiased trial. Not in the US.  If she did do it, i think she should go to jail for the rest of her life.  If it comes down too it, it was murder yes. It sure was. People do stupid things.
When you read about it you say to yourself this women is guilty. Before you can hear all the facts to know the whole story. You just assume she is because that's what the media says.

So how are our human rights being given to us these days?
Read the Constitution. It states how we should be. however we aren't given our rights.
I'm sure there are many cases in the media that get overly medized.
That innocent people DO get sent to jail.

Welfare was created in the United States in the 1930's durning the Great Depression. By the 1960's 4.1% of Families were in the public assistance programs across the nation. By the 1980's it increased the percentage by 10%. In 2008, 28.6 % of people are on public assistance.
It is a common misconception that everyone on welfare, is poor. In the news recently it is said that a Lottery Winner of 2$ million, Department of Human Services officials confirmed that they had told Leroy Fick, 59, that he could continue to receive aid because he took his Make Me Rich earnings in a lump sum and still met the earned income threshold for food assistance.  How is that okay?

I have personal experience in having to need this assistance. Have you ever had to go into a public aid office?
Have you ever had to sit for 6 hours waiting for your name to be called?
My personal experience was, i was 9 months pregnant, and a case worker, sent me a form late. I went into the office the day i received the letter stating they needed to be sure i was still pregnant. I'm not sure why? It was with my first child, I'm not sure if maybe they thought i needed the pregnant medical care because i wasn't pregnant? the Lord only knows why. I brought myself and my huge belly into the office. Put my name on the list for my case worker to come down from her office and see me, fix the issue. Very much pregnant i then sat for 5 hours waiting for my name to be called. When i was called, the worker talked to me for 3 Min's. She got my name and looked at me and said. " yup honey your pregnant, lets fix this." So she handed me a form to fill out again. I did. The insurance they had given me instead which needed to be fixed was for women who were not pregnant. So, if i went into labor i would not be covered by the state for my birth or hospital stay. The case worker went on to talk and gab to someone next to me. Talking for about 15 minutes to this person about her nails and her boyfriend, other topics that had nothing to do with her job what so ever. She told me to then leave my paperwork and she would go right up to her office and fix the problem that happened and i should be fine, it would take her " like 15 Min's" to fix it. I should go home and rest and "do my thing". So i did. she had said that my new Medical card would arrive in the mail all fixed up. Since i was 9 months pregnant it would maybe arrive after i already had my baby but if i took and older card to the ER with me the case workers in the hospitals could find my information in their system no problem.  So i went home. 2 weeks later i had my son unexpectedly.  I gave birth to my beautiful baby to find out that i was not covered. Speaking to a case worker in the hospital, told me that my medical card was still listed as a non-pregnant person. I told the worker about how i had it fixed 2 weeks ago at my local office, that my case worker took my information and was to fix the problem. I was told that, " i guess she didn't do it?" When a child is born in my state they Go Right on your medical plan. They are covered by the state if you don't have one. So my child's care was covered but his birth was not. Having no job because i lost it when i was pregnant. How is that right?   How is it okay for a person to have a job and be paid to do a job and yet they don't DO their jobs? I just don't understand this. How is it right to do this to people. To ruin peoples lives and make them sicker, or weaker in the world.

I guess that there ARE some people on the planet who are ON public assistance because they just want to be on it. Why because its free right? If you had a choice between Free and Paid wouldn't you want free?
You have to prove your arm is still attached to you so that they can surgically remove it when they background check you for your public aid assistance. You might need to cut off a few toes as payment to receive the assistance. They always find a way to mess it up for you.  Public aid did that to me not once. but Twice. The second time i almost died when i needed the medical coverage, I birthed a Million Dollar baby.  As a Non-pregnant women. I must have been the virgin Mary because one minute I'm not pregnant and then bam 7 months later I'm having a baby as a pregnant female on insurance for plain old single women.
Thank God for helpful people.

How is it right that our system is like this?
I call a Office and i get a voicemail. I leave a message and i don't get a call back.
Why have a phone if you aren't going to answer it. Why ask people to leave a message if you aren't going to EVER call them back.?

I feel those who don't need the help shouldn't use it.
I feel those who DO need the help should receive it without the leg amputation process.
Those who receive the help and don't need it should be ashamed of themselves.

Homeless Americans
In the 1980's the US Government found that somewhere between 200,000 and 500,000 Americans were homeless. With about a total population of 227,224,681 in the 1980's.
In 2009, there were found in one night to be a total of  about  643,000 Americans. Sheltered and Unsheltered. Makes it about 1 in every 200 people is homeless. Is said the major reasons for homelessness is due to, prison release, unemployment, domestic violence & poverty.

The goal in 2010, is to stop homelessness. they have a 10 year plan.  OR so they say.
White house says "The Vision of the Plan is: "No one should experience homelessness - no one should be without a safe, stable place to call home." This is true. NO ONE should ever be without a home. But hey, 1 in every 200 people IS homeless in America since 2009. 2 years later the homeless population has gone up and up.
In the next 5 years they say they are going to END homelessness in Americans or that is their goal to do so.

I think, that no one should ever be homeless. We have a high population. This world has MORE then enough homes in it for every single American to have a home. There should be no reason to deny a human being a home and a place to live. Money is MONEY. Its green paper that's makes the world go around. Is money more important then a human life. That is what it comes down to in America. Money or Death. The Human Heart has been sucked dry of all that is good. I believe that it is also sad that humans don't care about other humans. How they live or how they act.  I think that every person should have to live in a homeless shelter for a day and see how it feels to be one. You should experience the low of the world. I don't think a person chooses to be homeless. It is pushed upon them. I do understand that a large number of the homeless population are people whom have drug or alcoholic problem. Which they should be given help. I understand its a sickness. Do Americans allow people with heart problems or diabetes to go without medical attention?
Do we allow people who are sick not to have help. Some people cant ask for help because they are to proud.  I guess those people choose that life and that's their choice. however the 80 or 90% population of that large number of people who don't choose to be that way and have no choice in that matter. They should be given help.

We have more then enough great things in this world. Why does money rule out world. Its trees. Its Green.


Its just sad.


You know the solution to this problem?
Greedy people who want money need to lower there take.
If the government spent less money on garbage they might be able to fix this country.
I don't think a senator, or Governor, or even the president should be paid as much as they are for their jobs.
A Senator makes $174,000  a year roughly. The president is paid $400,000 per year (annually), and has a $50,000 spending budget. How is that right? He is paid 4,000 a month, just to do his job.
A police officer makes about 17,000 to 23,000 a year.
HOW are we paying these people SO much money to do their jobs. the government could be spending that money so much better.

I am sickened by how this world has turned out.
