Coral Gables Police Mishandled the Ray Allen Break In

Local news reports indicate that the home of Miami Heat's basketball player, Ray Allen, was broken into while his wife and children were asleep. Mrs. Allen awoke to hear the young intruders walking around and even entering her room. This, of course, was a frightening experience especially for a mother and her children since Mr. Allen appeared not to be at home. But, what is even also troubling was the nonchalant attitude of the Coral Gables police. Kelly Denham, Coral Gables Police spokesperson, who was interviewed, made this criminal act seem as if it was no big deal. She gave the impression that the intruders were simply kids playing around??!!. This indifferent attitude appeared to be displayed since the young thugs were attending a party at their wealthy friend's home in the neighborhood. Regardless, it is a crime to break into anyone's home in the wee hours of the morning and thereby scare the occupants. The Coral Gables police response indicates that they intended to give preferential treatment in this case. In fact, they did not even want to identify the teens until they came under pressure.  Certainly the police's reaction would be the different if the intruders were African Americans. However, it was good to hear today that the Allen family saw beyond the Coral Gables police's stupid reaction and went ahead and pressed charges against the thugs. So, Ernesto Romero, Jonathan Ramirez, Kevin Ramos, Alana Garcia, Christian Lobo, Angel Sanches, and Jorge Guerrero need to bear the consequences.  Coral Gables Police, this is a CRIME not a PRANK!!

Power, Riches, and Fame Cannot Eliminate Internal Demons

Achieving power, riches, and fame is an accomplishment that many can only dream of achieving. It is often believed that this is a life of perfection where any difficulties can easily be resolved with the wealth, power, or fame acquired. Yet, when a sudden death occurs of those who have achieved such lifestyles, the imperfections are always made obvious. The illusion of perfection is recognized to the disappointment of many who come to think of the rich as untouchable. There seems to be a trade off between this lifestyle and internal demons that tend to plague the existence of those "rich and famous" until death. So while we believe this is a wonderful way to live, no money in the world can eliminate such demons that seem to always overcome such a perfect life.
