Don T Stop The Swagger

A SWAGGER can't be acquired by material objects. It comes from a source deep within that you may have never known you possessed. The swagger never lets circumstance or criticism interrupt the mission. But what happens when your uncommon dream doesn't go as planned -your business fails, tragedy hits, you make a bad decision, your marriage goes down hill, your athletic aspirations don't pan out, or you're in a job that just doesn't do it for you? You see with every little hiccup in life you lose energy, excitement and drive. YOU LOSE YOUR SWAGGER! These are the stories rarely discussed by the mainstream sports media - stories that will empower your walk through life, show you what mental toughness really means, and give YOU a SWAGGER!

Yates: “When I drove up on the scene, I noticed two unmarked vehicles at the intersection, with tinted windows and a few assault rifles lying in front of the driveway. As I got closer l turned off my car engine and laid low for a few minutes. Then I hopped out and took cover behind my vehicle. I then grabbed my binoculars and began looking around to make sure the coast was clear. I noticed one of the unmarked vehicles had two assault rifles sticking out of the back window so I identified myself. I said, ‘My name is Detective Yates from the 14th precinct. Lay your weapons on the ground. Turn and face me, put your hands in the air and come out quietly!’ At this point I identified the suspect as Bones the convict. I immediately observed what appeared to be a gunshot wound and blood gushing from the middle section on the upper part of his chest”. Knox: “What happened Yates, you shoot first then ask questions later?” Yates: “I don’t like the way this conversation is going. I was acting in self-defense, so I don’t know why I’m being interrogated”. Knox: “So what are you trying to say? He was shot prior to your arrival?” Yates: “Apparently”. Knox: “After you had an altercation with the person in question, what did you do next?” Yates: “Bones continued shooting, while I took cover behind my vehicle. Again I instructed him to show his hands. Bones launched towards his vehicle and fired on me with what I ascertain to be a K-47 an assault rifle. I returned fire and took cover while Bones continued to engage me. When he paused to reload, I immediately pulled out my Glock 45 caliber from my holster, along with my binoculars to get a clear and effective shot. At that point, I seized the opportunity to take an effective shot”. Stitch: “Yates; this is what I would really like to know, what were you doing in Detroit, 42nd Street 7th Avenue without any back-up?” Yates: “I am not at liberty to elaborate on this particular subject. The fact of the matter is, I was attending to a family matter. Which I think is still legal. Isn’t it?” Knox: “No need to get all bent out of shape. We just wanted to know exactly what transpired between you and the person in question”. Yates: “Are we done?” Knox: “Don’t leave town until we are finished with our investigation. We are done here”.

I wrote this book about all my persecutions and suffering from Romania in the time of communism. Everything began in 1983 when I decided to leave my country. I could never forget those six years from 1983-1989 of all the suffering and persecution I pulled through, those memories will never leave me. This book is my witness, and I thank God that I am able to write about all my sufferings and persecution during the communist period in my country Romania. I was abused physically and mentally, and it even got to the point where they would try to kill me because of my origin, which is a gypsy. Yes, I am gypsy but, I am also human like everyone else. I have the same blood and the same god like anybody else. I am proud to write on this piece of paper about the tragic events that occurred during the communist period of time in Romania. The brutal crimes, murders, and persecution that occurred transformed population in my country into slaves. Im writing this book about my life, how much I suffered, and how I was persecuted under the communist period. And also I wrote about the events that happened in World War II 1940-1944 under the Marshal Antonescu power; how he persecuted the gypsy and deported them in Trasnistria camp. The persecution didnt stop there; they continued all the way to the year of 1989 under Ceausescu Nicolaie, the President of Romania. Reader, once you open this book, I promise you after you read just a few pages you cant stop reading. Just try to read it, and I guaranty that you will feel and live my moments of my sufferings and persecution. This is not a fi ction book; this is not a storybook, and everything in this book is real. In this book you can fi nd very tragic and humorous events. Maybe youll never read a book like this ever in your life. You discover historic events that were never written, like how the communist would sell the Jews and the gypsies in Europe, and also, how they deported and made them suffer in Trasnistria Camp during the World War II, and many more. I wrote this book crying because I suffered so much for only one reason: I WANT MY FREEDOM!
