I DON’T UNDERSTAND … MY MIND CAN’T GRASP THIS

Ethan Anthony Couch (born April 11, 1997) is an American who made national headlines at age 16 when he was prosecuted as a juvenile and convicted of four counts of intoxication manslaughter for recklessly driving drunk on June 15, 2013 in Burleson, Texas where he was speeding, lost control of his vehicle, plowed into a gathering of pedestrians and struck a parked car. Four people were killed and nine others injured, two suffering serious bodily injury as a result of the collision.

In December 2013, Judge Jean Hudson Boyd sentenced Couch to 10 years of probation and subsequently ordered him to therapy at a long-term, in-patient facility, after his attorneys successfully argued that the teen suffered from “affluenza” and needed rehabilitation instead of prison. Boyd then retired as judge the following December. Couch’s sentence set off what the New York Times called “an emotional, angry debate that has stretched far beyond the North Texas suburbs”.

Couch became the subject of a manhunt and was listed in the National Fugitive Database on December 11, 2015, after his probation officer was unable to contact him. On December 28, 2015, authorities detained Couch and his mother in the Mexican resort city of Puerto Vallarta.

Tamir Rice, a 12-year-old boy (June 25, 2002 – November 23, 2014), was shot on November 22, 2014, in Cleveland, Ohio.  Two police officers, 26-year-old Timothy Loehmann and 46-year-old Frank Garmback, responded after receiving a police dispatch call “of a male black sitting on a swing and pointing a gun at people” in a city park. A caller reported that a male was pointing “a pistol” at random people in the Cudell Recreation Center.

At the beginning of the call and again in the middle he says of the pistol “it’s probably fake.” Toward the end of the two-minute call, the caller stated “he is probably a juvenile.” However, this information was not relayed to Loehmann or Garmback on the initial dispatch. The officers reported that upon their arrival, Rice reached towards a gun in his waistband. Within two seconds of arriving on the scene, Loehmann fired two shots before the zone car had come to a halt, hitting Rice once in the torso. Neither officer administered any first aid to Rice after the shooting. He died on the following day.

Rice’s gun was later found to be an Airsoft replica that lacked the orange safety feature marking it as a replica and not a true firearm. A surveillance video of the shooting was released by police four days later, on November 26. On June 3, the County Sheriff’s Office released a statement in which they declared their investigation to be completed and that they had turned their findings over to the county prosecutor.

The prosecution presented evidence to a grand jury, which declined to indict.

TELL ME WHY …. ANOTHER VERSION

Several days ago, I started the day with the original version of “Tell Me Why” sung by a very young Declan Galbraith. The first video was uploaded in 2006. By 2012, a new version was posted which included a duo.

Declan was born Dec. 19, 1991 … he’s 26 years old now.

Doudou, a teen Chinese girl who made a name by singing the Beijing Olympic theme song “You and Me”.

Tonight, I would like to share with you this other version. Hope you enjoy it.

We see that our world reality hasn’t changed since then.

If anything, it’s gotten worse.

The lyrics apply today as much as they did back then.

Can anyone tell me why?

TELL ME WHY

A dear friend posted this video to my Facebook Timeline yesterday.

As I researched about it to post today, I realized that this event took place 13 years ago.

We see that our world reality hasn’t changed since then.

If anything, it’s gotten worse.

The lyrics apply today as much as they did back then.

Can anyone tell me why?

~Guinness World Record~

On 9 December 2002, the largest choir in history, drawn from all parts of the UK and Ireland, joined Declan to sing ‘Tell Me Why‘ for a Guinness World Record. The event was organized by ‘Young Voices in Concert‘.

Funds from the record-breaking attempt were donated to the Sargent Cancer Care for Children.

LYRICS

In my dream, children sing
a song of love for every boy and girl
The sky is blue
and fields are green
and laughter is the language of the world
Then I wake and all I see,
is a world full of people in need

Chorus
Tell me why (why) does it have to be like this?
Tell me why (why) is there something I have missed?
Tell me why (why) cos I don’t understand
When so many need somebody,
we don’t give a helping hand
Tell me why?

Everyday I ask myself,
what will I have to do to be a man?
Do I have to stand and fight,
to prove to everybody who I am?
Is this what my life is for,
to waste in a world full of war?

Chorus
Tell me why (why) does it have to be like this?
Tell me why (why) is there something I have missed?
Tell me why (why) cos I don’t understand
When so many need somebody,
we don’t give a helping hand
Tell me why?

Chorus
(children) tell me why? (Declan) tell me why?
(children) tell me why? (Declan) tell me why?
(together) just tell me why, why, why?

Chorus
Tell me why (why) does it have to be like this?
Tell me why (why) is there something I have missed?
Tell me why (why) cos I don’t understand
When so many need somebody,
we don’t give a helping hand
Tell me why?

Chorus
(why, why, does the tiger run)
Tell me why (why, why do we shoot the gun)
Tell me why (why, why do we never learn)
Can someone tell us why we let the forest burn?
(why, why do we say we care)
Tell me why (why, why do we stand and stare)
Tell me why (why, why do the dolphin cry)
Can some one tell us why we let the ocean die?
(why, why if we’re all the same)
Tell me why (why, why do we pass the blame)
Tell me why (why, why does it never end)
Can some one tell us why we cannot just be friends?

(why, why do we close our eyes?)
(why, why do the greedy lie?)
(why, why do we fight for land?)
(can someone tell us why cos we don’t understand?)
(why, why?)
