Just wondering about that, because I am planning to post massively, trying to meet moderator/board approval for my venture onto this site. I really want to write about the roughly one in seven persons in prison who are not guilty of the crimes of which they were convicted. OK...I admit it may not be quite that many, but one reference I found said it is that many. I do find that number to be within the realm of possibility. And these people need someone to step up and yell--LOUDLY--that our court system is falling apart with the presence of injustice in our justice system.

May I suggest playing with the thread Killer Challenge. You can find things on the internet to post that you can try to make us laugh or cry. This I find makes a great post number generator. Welcome to the board fellow newbie.
May I suggest writing in anything but ALL CAPS!!! It get's tedious after a while...

Welcome to the board fellow newbie.Thanks for the welcome, and the same right back to you. Also thanks for the suggestion. I am really looking forward to using this board. I can't resist it with this cause I want to make known. Little old ladies in tennis shoes can be as stubborn as the noted bulldog. And I'm not even sorry. Hope you enjoy this site as much as I plan to.

Not using caps--just a large size, so I can proofread more easily. For the sake of the rest of you, I'll try to remember to use a smaller font, but if I forget, please forgive me and remember that almost-70-year-old eyes don't work as well as your younger ones.
Lets talk about how a third of black males are behind bars, and many on petty charges. What's up with this 3 strikes law... lets get some better investments in education. When they say crime doesn't pay.... they were making big bucks off of it.
No don't be ashamed. I am still an Intern.
I never understood post counts anyway. I see a conversation and I add what I think is relevant then I join in. If it isn't someone will be gracious enough to tell me and as a rule I move on, as a rule.
