     - LESSONS -

You've got to be taught to hate and fear
You've got to be taught from year to year
It's got to be drummed in your dear little ear
You've got to be carefully taught

You've got to be taught to be afraid
Of people whose eyes are oddly made
And people whose skin is a different shade
You've got to be carefully taught

You've got to be taught before it's too late
Before you are six or seven or eight
To hate all the people your relatives hate
You've got to be carefully taught
You've got to be carefully taught

--Show tune from the 1949 Rodgers and Hammerstein musical South Pacific

Cyberstalker, put my post of this discussion item right back at Assistance to the Incarcerated Mentally Ill and put it back at the group called "Against Human Stupidity."  I am sick of you removing my posts from Care2 Groups.  I think you hate Care2 and want to get this Network in serious trouble for violating my free speech and free press. 

Care2, you need to please check your security re: the cyberstalker who sends me threatening posts from here and is not allowing my posts to stay in place.  Please check your security systems and because everything is not as it should be.  Members should not be descriminated against on a forum that is held out to be public.  I am black, but I was NOT given conditional membership.

Whoever does this deletes messages and news that is negative to The Cochran Firm and prison profiteering.  They move articles and blog posts that might help move the mentally ill away from prisons and jails, end capital punishment, save Troy Davis, denounce racism, speak against the war, or expose what happened to my mentally ill brother in Shelby County Jail in Memphis, Tennessee.  The cyberstalker will not even let the word "God" stay capitalized in my taglines!  Whoever does this is very anti-religion, loves war, and works to contain damaging information about America's huge incarceration rate.  Maybe that will help you figure out who is doing this.
