Hello,
My name is Jessica. I have been wanting to start an advice column. So, I think this would be a great chance. :)
If you need advice then I am all ears! I know how it feels to just want somebody to talk to but you can't ask your family or friends sometimes. .. Sometimes you just want a pair of fresh ears, nobody to judge you or to put you down.
So, write to me and I will help you the best I can.
Jessica Brown
I am relatively new to the patch and have been called all kinds of names because I have a conservative view point. While I don’t feel that I am dumb, stupid, a nut job, greedy, uneducated, racist, can’t read, only watch Fox news, kick puppies, hate women, hate the poor, am a liar, etc…others on the patch with different opinions feel the need to name call. Sometimes I have to cry myself to sleep at night.
Wow...way to play the victim, whiner. Pot, have you met kettle? *stand by for the denial in 3, 2,....*
Now I'm off to go watch some fox news, count my money, and later I have that tea party rally to go to where I can be surrounded by my fellow racists and homophobes. Do I sense a "dog whistle" in your pot and kettle reference?

Yes I heard that in Lakewood you are not allowed to have pitbulls...I am from Cleveland and there they have to have a mussel. But, maybe you could get some people together and sign a paper saying how you guys think it's okay to have pitbulls in Lakewood. The reason why they mostely banned them is because they are known for being kinda mean. But, people need to also know it's the way you raise them. Try to talk to people in your area who would sign and say it's okay to have them. See if that works. Let people like the news know that you are doing this and then maybe they would get involved and maybe air it on television so it could be known and helped.
This country is about to pull into another recession. Does anyone here know what $17trillion debt is? Honestly, do any of you here CARE?
Steve.. help me out bud! Let’s start a BSL blog!
You're guilty of name-calling and/or stereotyping, hypocrite. Need to carry on with being a hypocrite now that you've been called out? Or are you just going to zip it?
It would be great if these so-called "local voices" would actually BLOG about LOCAL stuff.
I guess I can't read, or perhaps just can't comprehend your high level intellect and writing style. I clearly misunderstood your pot and kettle reference. I thought you were indicating that I called you, or others "all kinds of names" which I have not. Since I am slow, perhaps you can elaborate so I can have a better understanding of why I am a hypocrite.
Also: if one writes you needing advice: do we post it HERE or do we email you? How do we write to you anonymously and get advice on the blog? will you change our names? Do we make another account to protect our identities? I think you will make a great advice-giver and it appears you truly care about people. As you can see from some posts, you may need to be more specific on what you are doing with your blog. It looks like it has become a dumping ground of sorts. Good luck !
These people dont even KNOW you. Dont let their name calling bother you. I just laugh and realize I must have touched a nerve with my comment. Your opinion is yours -- embrace it and keep posting.
why would you want to be friends with people like that? I wouldnt. (If you hold 3 masters degrees, I am betting most people don't understand what you're posting. : ) They say intellects have a hard time being related to in life. Maybe you are on a different level intellectually and people don't "get" your comments ?)
The name calling is actually quite amusing to me as is how mad some get at someone they don't know who just happens to have a different opinion or belief system.
