Lesson Learnt: Never Trust Anyone

Why couldn't I have done more

should've known what you had in store

I didn't let you kiss

but I couldn't let you miss

You touched me

I couldn't stop you

Why did I trust you

I just met you

Already on your eighth

should've known it wasn't safe

now I'm left behind

to see what I can find

I don't regret

I've learned my lesson

lesson learnt:

Never trust anyone

maybe it was the alcohol

maybe something else

maybe it was just you

showing me yourself

are you sorry?

I must ask

or is this, to you,

all in the past?

you didn't even come back

You just ran away

No apology given

you are not forgiven

You wont be forgotten.

I wrote this after being touched against my will soon after I started going out with my current boyfriend.

We were at a party, and I was talking with him. We decided to go for a short walk down theroad a bit, it was in the open, night yes but still. We decided to sit on a car and look up at the stars. Then he started trying to touch me. I just kept telling him no. He was like " it's only been four days, just tell him it was before" I said no, don't touch me but I was too scared to run away. I was afraid he might hurt me, knock me out and then do things. He started humping me ( with clothes on) I was unconfortable... He said " this will have to do", I think had my aunt NOT come up with her truck looking for me, he might've raped me.. I'm sure HE was thinking about it. When she came up the hill he was like " hide! get down!" I was like "no way!". I quickly got into the trucK with her she asked me where he was I said I don't know.. hiding. I was so out of my head. One thing she said really hurt, and I cried. She said, and I can't beleive it " Now I see why your mother doesn't trust you!". I couldn't say anything. They had been looking for me for an hour. I thought I heard them I said " I think I heard my name" and he said you're just looking for an excuse. Again I was too afraid to move, or try to get away. I was punished to stay in the house the whole next day which I had no problem with. I stayed in my aunt's room where I had slept all day, listening to my music and crying, and of course writing. I wanted so bad to cut then, so I flicked elastics.

This was around the time after everything else had happened, I just started going out with my boyfriend, as I said. I was so broken and lost. This didn't help. I called my boyfriend emmediately and told him what happened. He knows I cheated once before on Nick, but he believed me. I also told my cousin, who loves me and tries to protect me. He went out looking for him ,but he had run home. This didn't help with my fear of alcohol...this adds to the list of reasons why I'll probably never drink.

June 13, 2008 - Surrounded by Afghan National Police, the U.S. Army staff sergeant moved the water-bottle caps around in the dirt, as if on a checkerboard. But, there was no board, and this was no game. It was training. With different obstacles facing the trainers at Forward Operating Base Scorpion, unconventional methods of training are common. The language barrier may seem to limit the training, but the trainers and mentors are committed to mission execution, no matter what the means.

Army Staff Sgt. James Parks, a police mentor team member from Buffalo, N.Y., uses the bottle caps to demonstrate a wedge formation, a type of patrolling technique. That day, his group was working on the "rush and roll," the "low crawl," and other basic combat reactions under fire. This training usually is for soldiers; however, due to the counterinsurgency environment, the Afghan National Police need these skills to survive and defeat the enemy.

"We train them in basic combat skills so they can stay alive out there," Parks said. "It seems basic to us, but it's stuff that they just don't know to do when there is enemy contact."

The majority of the police training at the Regional Training Center in Kandahar is Afghan-led, but the three American and three coalition mentors work with Afghan police commanders and trainers to coach and advise the new recruits on basic combat skills.

"The language barrier is the biggest obstacle we face," Parks said.

Just like the bottle caps, the U.S. mentor team used colored blocks to demonstrate how to clear a building. They assigned colored blocks to each police officer on the clearing team and set corresponding colored blocks on the inside of the building. That way, the police would know by looking at the colored blocks where they needed to position themselves once inside the building.

Once the police officers finish the eight-week course at the RTC, they are sent out to districts in southern Afghanistan. But their training doesn't stop once they're in the field.

Regional Police Advisory Command South, with headquarters at FOB Scorpion, acts as a command post for several police mentor teams spread out through Afghanistan's southern districts. Nearly 10,000 ANP officers work in the field, and the mentor teams travel from district to district to train, advise and mentor the police.

Army Col. John Cuddy, Regional Police Advisory Command South commander, oversees training for the RTC and the police mentor teams.

"The mentors and the PMTs are the front-runners of our mission here," he said. "It's amazing what these men are doing with what they have."

Cuddy said the mentor teams visit the district police after they have left the regional training center and ensure they sustained those skills learned during training and are conducting their basic function as police officers: to serve and protect. The PMTs also ensure the police are getting paid and fed.

"If the ANP aren't paid, they go AWOL. If they aren't armed, they get killed in the night," he said.

Cuddy said reports of real progress come from the districts.

"We are getting feedback that the Taliban doesn't recognize the ANP they fight now," he said. "The ANP are starting to fight back. Before, they didn't have the training in basic fighting or survival skills, so they would surrender or run."

Afghan Brig. Gen. Nassurullah Zarifi, commander of the Afghan National Police Kandahar Regional Training Center, has more than 35 years of experience, including time with the Afghan National Army. He worked for 16 years as an instructor in the ANA before he was transferred to the RTC.

"We have 350 students here, but not enough instructors. The American and coalition instructors help us to educate our people," he said. "While they are here, my instructors, deputies and myself work hard to ensure the students are trained properly and will do their job correctly when they leave the RTC to go to their communities."

He said he receives positive feedback from the provinces about the police who graduated from the eight-week training program at the RTC.

"They are happy to have the new ANPs in their community," Zarifi said. "This is a long process, not a short-term answer. We are working on the security for the future of Afghanistan."

Fred Phelps and his inbred family made it to Nebraska.  Nebraska Army National Guard Spc. William Bailey's funeral was this past Tuesday in Bellevue, NE.  Bailey was killed May 25th in Iraq.  For those of you who don't know this, Bellevue is technically apart of Omaha.  Bellevue is also the home of Ouffit Airforce Base.  This would be one of the safest spots for Phelps and his inbred family to protest even if nobody wanted them there.

Now before I go into what happened to Shirly Phelps-Roper, Fred's daughter, let me tell you all about a little law that Nebraska has on their books about the flag.  :D

Nebraska’s flag law says: “A person commits the offense of mutilating a flag if such person intentionally casts contempt or ridicule upon a flag by mutilating, defacing, defiling, burning, or trampling upon such flag.”

Shirly Phelps allowed her son Jonah to stomp and tred on the US flag.  She was also involved in a situation that could have turned very deadly to her if the police didn't intervean and arrest her:D  You see a lot of military folks were at the funeral, not to mention family and friends.  And ten to one they all have the same feelings that other military families do in the mid west have about Phelps and his inbred crew........let him come to our boys and girls funerals.............his family will just end up going to their own funerals because they will be hurt.  My brother told my folks that if he died in Iraq to make sure Phelps knew when his funeral would be and such just so friends, family, and his military friends can beat the shit out of phelps.  My brother wasn't hurt in Iraq thankfully.  Phelps and his crew pick funerals in largers towns and cities because he knows that if he goes to smaller towns he will be strung up by his fle size dick and beaten.

Shirely Phelps had to post $150 dollars bond and Sharpy County Police are also debating about charging Child Endargerment and neglect on her for her son Jonah for having him in a potientially violent situation where threats were already made against the Phelps crew by friends and family of Bailey and by military personel.

She says that she will see Sharpy County Officials in Federal Court over her arrest:D  She thinks because she is a lawyer she is above the laws of the states she protests in, she is going to find out real fast that her case about desicrating the flag for any protestes isn't going to go to federal till she goes through the state process:D  Stupid bint.  And that the way folks feel about Phelps and his inbreed crew, desicration of the flag by not only religious zealots but illegal ailens, Ms phelps-roper might be made an example of:D
