Have you ever had dealings with a dishonest, immoral attorney? What about an electrician? A
building contractor? A physician? The list of professional "jobs" that require a certification or
license of some kind should always be considered when forced to deal with these people in
some way.

For example, what do you do if you hired an electrician to wire your house only to find out that
he wasn't certified? What if said electrician was certified but was clearly incompetent, neglectful
or otherwise was dishonest in his profession? What can you do about it?

What if you paid a $1,500 retainer to an attorney only to find out at court he was totally
unprepared, incompetent and spent your money on drugs, what then? The judge throws you in
jail because the attorney you retained was actually addicted to drugs, lazy, didn't care or
whatever the reason may be, but in the end YOU suffer for it. Do you simply do as the law
allows or encourages you to do and go out and retain another lawyer to file pleadings in court in
hopes of getting your jail time conviction overturned due to "ineffective counsel"? Good luck
getting one bird to go against another as that old saying is direct on point, "birds of a feather
flock together".

So, what do you do?

In the case of an attorney, could you not contact the Tennessee Board of Professional
Responsibility and report the incompetent lawyer? Sure you can, but what good would it do?

For one, you will bring official attention to the very people that oversee the attorney's LAW
LICENSE. By submitting a written complaint (easily done by the way) you force the lawyer to
not explain himself to you, but to explain himself to a Board that can censure him, suspend him
or disbar him completely from the profession of law and he can then go get a real job selling
cars or something else. The bottom line is that YOU exercised your right to not have to bend
over and take a ram rod up the (_
*_) just because some jack leg went to school, was a son of a
sheriff, a nephew of a city manager or whatever the case may be. Also, in all this remember that
other old saying of "the squeaky wheel gets the grease". So in that regard, make some noise
when you feel that you have been screwed over by anyone.

In the case of police conduct, which is the gist of this short discussion, as you read along and
follow this short preamble to another link you can follow to read more, you will learn that you
have much more control over a rogue police officer than you think. Sure, a cop will want you to
think that "he is the law", or that "the law doesn't apply to him" and any other of that bullshit they
will try to scare you with. My suggestion is, sit back, be nice, say yes sir, no sir and anything
else for that particular instance while dealing with them.  They write you the ticket, make you
feel scared or any other thing a typical person who more than likely has less education than
you, much less self esteem than you who draws what esteem he can from the authority of a
badge and a gun and a host of court decisions, you now get all your ducks in order and go after
this bully just as you would any other bully.

Remember back in school how we all used to have bullies that wanted to push us around, take
our lunch money or just wanted a cheap laugh at our expense? I do.

I remember many, many years ago there were several different types of bullies at the
elementary school I attended. I went to Spivey-Garrison elementary school which was one of
those community schools we had in place back then. Needless to say, we had dudes that were
in the 5th and 6th grade that were almost old enough to join the military as they failed so many
times. In any event, these BIG kids routinely beat up us little kids. As for me, I had a big brother
who was much bigger than them, older than them who would skip school from Rhea Central
High School and walk out to Spivey school and hide and watch us at recess. When he saw the
big bullies messing with me he would come out from hiding and approach the bullies. You know
what? The bullies were now the ones afraid of being beat up. That was a great learning
experience for me.

Well, needless to say, I took my new found outlook on bullies and getting beat up by them out
for a test ride. I remember one instance as if it was yesterday. If he is reading this he will know
exactly who he is and what I'm talking about too. Anyways, it was recess and we were out
playing near the top of a steep long embankment that the janitor used to dump the ashes of the
school boiler heating system. Well sure enough, here come this BIG kid and started his shit with
me and I was afraid of him because of his size and reputation in school. So as he got up in my
face trying to intimidate me I found myself backing up. As I backed up he slowly kept advancing
on me making my fear level rise even more. As I stepped back and back and back in an attempt
to not get punched or beat up by this BIG boy, I found that I was standing on the very top of this
large, steep black ash embankment. One more step then I would have rolled down the hill and
been covered with black ash which, I'm certain would have given the bully and his little cronies
that followed him around a great big laugh at my expense.

Rather instinctively, I found myself looking around for my big brother to bolt from the brush and
save the day but he wasn't there. I even looked onto my friends hoping deep down that maybe
they might help me in my dilemma yet it seemed that they were content knowing that it was me
in this shitty situation instead of them. Ahhh, who could blame 'em I guess...

So as I looked behind me realizing that one more step back was my last one I had some sort of
revelation. Inside my mind I knew that I could go ahead and basically walk off the side of this
black, ash covered embankment and allow bullies to have their cheap laugh or I could stand my
ground. Well, as scared as I felt, I placed my right foot firmly at the top of the embankment and
allowed the bully as he laughed and heckled me to continue advancing. When this over sized
gorilla got within striking distance I hauled off and swung my fist as hard as I could aiming
nowhere really, just throwing the punch that I knew would be my one and only punch thrown
before I got beat up real bad.

Well, I let go of that punch and it connected squarely on his mouth! I can still hear the sound of
the POP it made. Wow!

Following the loud "pop", his lip busted wide open, and blood started to gush from his bottom
lip. Then to my amazement the BIG BULLY didn't hit me back but instead grabbed his mouth
and immediately started to cry. He cried and cried like a baby and you know what? Those that
were around watching all of this laughed at him. From that day on the BIG BULLY never
bothered me again. It was then that I realized that maybe I can't beat up  ALL bullies,  but if
every time a bully tried to bully me around then he could MAYBE beat me up or not,  but one
thing for SURE is that I was going to at least bust his damn mouth, nose, pull out a clump of hair
or anything I could do to NOT be a victim of a bully. I have since used the same analogy my
whole life. I suppose it helped me form my opinion of the "shit business". My new found position
was that "I didn't give no shit, I didn't take no shit as I was NOT in the shit business:"!

As time went by I grew up. I grew up to be strong and much smarter than even I thought I would
ever be.  I suppose one can consider themselves "smart" by learning not to do the stupid things
that harm us in some way. As the years went by I remember standing in the check out line of the
old Red Food Store (Bi-Lo now) and guess who I saw? You guessed it. I saw one of those
bullies that used to try to bully me years ago. I'm sure the easiest thing to do  at the time was to
ignore the dude, but something inside me just wouldn't let me ignore a gloating opportunity.  So
I walked up to him as he was a bag boy placing my food items in a bag for ME. I walked up to
this fellow,  who by the way,  was like six inches shorter than me, much smaller than me.  
Apparently he stopped growing and I kept right on sprouting up in to a FULL size man.  I got
directly in his face and looked down at him and said, "Hey, I'm all grown up now, would you like
to try and bully me now?"

The response was priceless. He stood there with a total look of fear on his face and said
absolutely nothing. Nothing at all.  The once upon a time, full of himself "big guy of the
playground" had nothing at all to utter.   So in the end, what I am trying to say is,  I guess in a
way that if we do face our fears we can defeat them and by not being afraid of a "fear" then
logically the fear has been defeated. After all, it isn't "fear" if we don't "fear' it, right?

When you find yourself feeling inferior to someone else just try to remember that one day you
will die, just as we all do. In that regard it is just too damn stupid to sit and worry about what
some idiot may or may not do to you. If they hold some sort of authority, fine. It is they who have
something to lose not you, right? In any event, whatever authority they have was given to them
by someone else. They didn't fall out of the ass of an angel nor were they molded from some
sort of special mold from God to reign over us. They are just exactly like me and you. Anything
special about them is more than likely is their "special education" or GED.   Think about it folks,
I know of a police chief who attained a 1.96 Grade Point Average in school. I could say his
name but there is no need in advising you that a chief of police in charge of a million dollar
budget is borderline stupid when he hires high school dropouts that did not even have the
motivation or DISCIPLINE to attend school. This isn't me being cruel, pissed off, or just running
my mouth. This shit is fact. If not, then we can all sit down face to face and see what is what
can't we.

The gist of my writing this section is to simply show people that no matter how poor you may be,
how frail or scared you may be, there is always a way around it. Always. Other than their way.

So what do you do if a lawyer screws you? I suggest you attack his law license and keep on
and on until you put him out of work. What about a judge? Do the same thing to them as well.
Remember, they first must be an attorney in good standing BEFORE they can be a judge. What
about a scam contractor? You complain and attack his license as well. What about a cop that
enjoys pulling you over or otherwise shoving his authority down your throat? You take it straight
to the source. The source being their credentials, such as their certification.  Folks, this stuff
isn't rocket science and can easily be done IF you take the time to do it. It is for YOU to choose
whether or not that you will stand up and protect yourself or not. How many people will get all
pissed off at someone for "messing with their kids". I get a big laugh out of most of them. Most
people around here will say, "you better not mess with my kid" or "do you know who you're
messin' with?", as if they will pounce on your ass if you messed with their "kids". Bullshit.

If people truly are that protective of their kids then they first need to be protective of themselves.
My God, if I had a dollar for every time someone said to me, "sure, I'll vote for you but I can't put
your sign in my yard because they might bother my kids" then I'd have lots of dollars. But hey, if
you guys want to run around being all scared then fine. Just don't act all tough to other people
or speak out against them or even speak up for something but are too damn scared to place
your name on it. Really, truthfully you know how silly it is to have all these opinions and ramble
them off anonymously. Then again, maybe there is a difference between fear and the illusion of
fear. Hell, I don't know. All I know is that if something does something to me, I respond. I suffer,
they suffer. They try to scare me I try to scare them. They respect me, I respect them. I just
figure anything short of that then next thing you know I'll be washing their drawers for them. As
for your "kids" teach them to stand up for themselves and to face their own battles but
realistically, in order to teach them that degree of confidence and independence then you must
first know it before you can teach it. Therefore, EDUCATE YOUR MIND. From knowledge also
comes confidence.  

By educating your mind you will find that "bullies", no matter what shape or form they are, will
know who they can and can't bully around. If you let bullies take your lunch money in school
and never stand up against it then you will grow up letting those same bullies who may have
some sort of new found authority bully you in different ways. Hey, it's YOUR call, not mine.

I invite yo to follow the link at the bottom of this page. It is sort of a basic, short discussion about
how you can stand your ground with over zealous police and win. I will soon be posting a
complete record of how I beat a city police officer and did it without an attorney. In fact, I even
got his high dollar attorney scolded by a federal judge for PLAGIARISM. Imagine that. A
"trained" licensed attorney resorting to plagiarism (cheating) in order to try to go against me, a
non-attorney. This was totally laughable to me yet embarrassing to him. Will I send a complaint
to Lance Bracy at the Tennessee Board of Professional Responsibility and push for
censureship or suspension? Who knows. I guess it depends on my mood. Remember, as i said
earlier, these dudes with their degrees, licenses, authority and everything else stand to lose all
they have. As for people like me who basically don't have much then we don't have much to
lose, do we?

Now, with that all said, below is an excerpt of an interesting web page. The link to the page is
below it. I suggest that you read it, take notes and learn the there are many administrative
procedures in place that can slap bullies with authority back down to reality. Check back every
now and then for updates to this site IF you want to. If not, it really doesn't matter to me. I write
most of this stuff to have a hobby. Like one of my many motto's, "I do this to entertain me, not
you".

EXCERPT:

Police conduct that has led to successful damage suits by victims for violations of due process
under 42 U.S.C. 1983 has also been grounds for revocation of the officer’s certificate. For
example, in Rogers v. City of Little Rock, an officer stopped the plaintiff’s car, offered to follow
her home to get her insurance papers, and coerced her into having sex. The U.S. Court of
Appeals for the Eighth Circuit upheld a $100,000 judgment against the officer, as well as the
district court’s finding that his conduct “shocked the conscience” in violation of substantive due
process.

Similarly, a nine-year member of the St. Louis, Missouri Police Department stopped a woman
for a routine traffic violation and discovered she was wanted by authorities in connection with a
child custody case. The officer also found marijuana in the car, and he told the woman he could
help her avoid criminal charges if she agreed to have sex with him in his personal car. She
[*545] did so, but subsequently reported the incident. This officer was fired by the Department
and his certificate was revoked by the Missouri POST in 1999.

Officers have also been decertified for intentional violations of suspects’ constitutional rights.
For example, an Arizona deputy arrested a suspect on a charge of interfering with a judicial
proceeding. When the deputy read the suspect the Miranda rights and the arrestee invoked his
right to counsel, the deputy turned off the tape recorder and an hour later had a full confession
that was ultimately suppressed. At the suspect’s criminal trial, upon direct testimony, the deputy
testified that he had arrived at the suspect’s residence at 10:15 a.m., interviewed him for
approximately one hour, and the suspect had made incriminating statements that established
his guilt. All of this testimony was false. A felony complaint was issued against the deputy
charging him with two counts of perjury, a class four felony. He later accepted a plea
agreement, which found him guilty of the class one misdemeanor of committing false swearing
by making a sworn statement that he believed to be false. He was subsequently decertified.
