I promised myself that I would not let you provoke me. I must comment on your reply regarding my affinity with some on BTB. I myself have a very rewarding career in Architecture as a Project Manager for a Construction Company, I am College Educated ( Bachelors Degree ) . I accomplished all of this despite my earlier struggles. It is not that I have an affinity to anyone that I do not know, I am simply a soft hearted compassionate person and I realize that human beings make bad choices and as Ronnie would say, are fallible. Furthermore I am strongly opposed to the Death Penalty. His situation must be very difficult and if I can brighten anyone's day by saying something positive, I believe that is good. I must say, you state that what you wrote is a line from your Curriculum Vitae, here in the states a CV is primarily only used by Doctors and in high academic circles. Since I am sure you are neither, ( it is not redacted it is retracted ) you must be from another country than the U.S.. Therefore, I apologize for writing that as a Citizen of the U.S. I thank you. Although I still do thank you.
kabe63 Repeating it does not make it any less so. It is a line from my CV. I am simply responding to an accusation of not doing anything productive with my life.
You can't say the Ronnie has confessed to his crimes as he never has or that you are so familiar with them although I am sure that he is pleased that you have forgiven him. The flip side of putting yourself out there is that there will be a response.
I have prison pen pals, which is how I arrived at BTB, and perhaps you missed the positive responses in the blogs. In fact the response before this one contains the following paragraph......name of blogger redacted.
"I look forward to reading more on your experiences. A new post to your blog will be better for you rather than just replying to us. A reply will be tagged onto the end of your last post. Either way it will be good to hear from you.
Stay strong,
Paul"
You write that "This blog format is here to give guidance and positive feedback to those who are paying for their crimes." The truth is that the majority of bloggers are using BTB to rail against the system. There is little positive to come out of it.
I, too, looked at your other posts and appreciate your struggle. I can see how you would have an affinity with some on BTB. I wish you well in your endeavours.
I hope this message finds you well. You know, I just looked at the other posts Paul has made, and noticed that he is " hating " on a lot of other people. That whole line he wrote to you about putting himself in harms way to defend others yada, yada, yada, he wrote that whole line word for word exactly like he wrote to you to another person he is tormenting. He is trying to provoke you. Don't feel bad!! If I were you, I would not even answer his comments. It seems he has made a career of tormenting people in prison. Keep your head up!!!
Hey Reck, I was just thinking of you and Shooter today. Finally, after all these years I got to see more than one. I didn't pay that much attention to them. The pictures in my mind are better. Hoping they will flash back ad you.
You and I had discussed family and raising children in one of our communications. I have to tell you I am so happy to see your Daughter writing to you. She seems like a wonderful young lady. It also seems that no matter your circumstances you showed your children how much you loved them and that is an incredible accomplishment!!! Be proud Sir!!
