BARREL OF MONKEYS: "GENESIS" in Reverse


I consider myself a Democrat. Been called a Socialist. Definitely a bleeding heart liberal.


As a child from a traditional southern family, playing Barrel of Monkeys on the floor, church every Sunday, doing well in public school, learning a trade; in every sense privileged .........


Comfortable in middle age, an avid news reader, on learning the tragic story of a full grown chimpanzee destroying the face of a woman who offered a toy, only trying to help it's owner coax her surrogate child back into his cage......


Today being confrontational, ribald, offensive, restless, rebellious.......


How did I get here from there?

Accused killer started violent crime spree days after leaving prison  | ajc.com

Accused killer started violent crime spree days after leaving prison ajc.com: "Two other men were also charged with Wise with murdering Charles Boyer Nov. 22 in the Virginia-Highland area of Atlanta, but police did not release their names because they are still investigating the pair for other crimes.
“Make no mistake,” Atlanta police Chief George Turner said when he announced the charges Wednesday against Wise and the two others, “we have removed some very dangerous criminals from the streets of Atlanta.”
Police say the crimes were random; that Wise and his recruits simply drove the streets looking for people to rob.
Wise started a life of crime early. He was 15 when he was convicted in Fulton County on Aug. 21, 2007, of aggravated assault with intent to commit a robbery."
