TEARS FOR FRANKIE BLUE EYES

It will take courage to read this article and absorb its message. It is not a pleasant, mindless distraction to the everyday problems we all face. It is painful and frightening and necessary. While it would be far more comfortable to turn away and redirect your attention to other less disturbing issues, I hope you will not turn away.

If the family of this precious little boy is so courageous as to open their wounded hearts to complete strangers, to share their tragedy, so that we might prevent a future tragedy, then the least we can do, as Americans, is to take the time to read and acknowledge their efforts.

I hope this message will sit heavily upon your heart as it sits heavily upon mine. We must understand the true cost of the policies of our local and federal government and their dereliction of duty in securing our borders, and refusing to uphold and enforce the laws set in place to protect our communities and our citizens. We have an obligation to speak out and to fight for the safety of our most vulnerable citizens. Being unaware and uninvolved is no longer an option. The life of someone you adore may depend on your activism and the activism of strangers.

There are no special interest groups lobbying for this family, no ethnocentric organizations being funded by greedy corporations telling his story. No elected officials pandering for votes warning us of the possibility of a similar fate. There are no marches in the streets or rallies. Other than one news article, I have found nothing in the mainstream media though they have hours a day to fill with stories of celebrity gossip and ‘feel good’ human interest stories. There is just you and I and Frank’s brave family.

Of course, most of the media doesn’t really want to report Frank’s story. They don’t want us to know that statistics prove between twelve and twenty-five Americans are killed on American soil each and every day at the hands of criminal illegal aliens. They don’t want us to wake up. But we are waking up. We are waking up to the corporate greed that is infecting our government and our media and costing American lives each and every day the status quo continues.

This little boy and his family deserve better then to be classified a mere crime statistic, one of the faceless, nameless numbers that add to the ever growing tally that is our victim’s crime lists and our national shame.

That is why I have brought this family’s plight to your attention and why I hope you will read it and pass it along to everyone you know. This family would have never known this fate but for the greed and self serving gratification of those who have sworn an oath to protect him.

And, though it is heartbreaking, let us not look away. Let us face the truth together. And then let us act to prevent this tragedy from ever happening to one of our children again, on our watch.

Frank ‘Frankie Blue Eyes’ Brooks was 5 years old. How many mothers ever in their worst nightmares could imagine having to write a eulogy for their baby? Frankie Brooks faced that nightmare. Read her words and then go and hug your children and thank God that you have another day to make a difference.

Excerpts from Eulogy

“There are thousands of stories I could share with you about how awesome little Frank was. How genuine he was. He was a happy smart child, never one sad day in his life. He lived every day long and played hard. We could not have prayed for a better addition to our family. This child loved so many people and brought so much joy to those around him. He had his parents, grandparents and brother and sister wrapped around his finger. One day will not pass that I will not think of the joy he brought to the worldâ€

[quote]“My mother cries daily. My son is not sleeping at night anymore. My daughter is higher strung and is in constant need of affection. We feel like the walking dead. My friends are a large part of my life and a friend of mine said he feels like we are all raped. That is what it feels like to an outsider. This child made people that happy.â€

If this doesn't spur you on folks I don't know what will.

Being unaware and uninvolved is no longer an option. The life of someone you adore may depend on your activism and the activism of strangers. Are you someone's activist stranger?

There are no special interest groups lobbying for this family, no ethnocentric organizations being funded by greedy corporations telling his story. No elected officials pandering for votes warning us of the possibility of a similar fate. There are no marches in the streets or rallies.

It's up to us to keep getting these FACTS out to the public, our neighbors our friends and our families. Few TV hosts will do it. Few radio hosts will do it right now during election time.

I'm placing the link to the article on our local website.

I thought we had a picture of this little guy. I'd like to put it on our site.

Frank loved to watch PBS’s Sprout and refused to allow the family to watch any other channel. His favorite cartoon character was Spongebob. Like his mother who loves music, he loved Rock and Roll and the band Rush, Tom Sawyer being his most favorite song. His favorite toys were his army men.

Wow, this completely blew me away when I read this.

For a five year old to be into Rush, an adult near him must have gotten him started perhaps his mother or uncle.

The thing that amazes me is that I mention Rush in the startup of my July 20th and July 27 broadcasts of the Last Americans Standing Show. I think in one episode, July 27, I mention the song Tom Sawyer specifically.

While I had no knowledge at the time that little Frank Brooks liked Rush or the song Tom Sawyer, I read the whole article about his murder on the air on the show not long after talking about the Rush concert I attended the the week before.

Listen for yourself to the July 27 episode.

I'm pretty sure there is an article that was posted here with a really adorable picture of this little boy after he got his hair cut. If you don't find it I'll look too.

I have very young children and reading this just breaks my heart....

Gogo, I just did a search and here is the picture. It has stuck in my mind...
