Man, that statement hit the right spot, started a giggle in my day. You know it's true though, all laughing aside,. I because of my fear of them spent hundreds of dollars over the years slowly building up hidden camera's, sound alerts and protection gagets, and 2_ extra dogs, to help protect us, sounds pitiful but they have kept me in bondage of fear, only because I know how ruthless these people are,
The refrigerator broke once, when I called them, they sent a guy out to look at it, he told udean that he fixed it, but it would only last about 30_ days. It was shot,. This was thursday late, Friday morning the guys came with a real nice looking refrigerator, it was from another renter that moved out because she went on vacation and while she was gone, someone broke in and stole all her beautiful things, her house was in a solitude area, anyway, this worker told me she was devistate, anyway I became instantly consumed it was the Burke's, I know it's terrible,. But Everytime I use to mention around udean that I might go see my son that is in prison far away, he would always quickly say , oh yea, when are you going, what dates, how long are you going to be gone, even before this lady , my alert would raise when he asked me that, and I would always wonder why, anyway when ever I did go away, I always got someone to stay here, and never told anyone I was leaving, dogs can be distroyed, that's why I have hidden camera's, some you see some you don't,. ( I love like a preper ) .
As for the refrigerator, well after I cleaned it out and transfered our food over, it never cooled down, I started calling Christian tours EMERGENCY line , I told Nancy, she said it was late and no one could get out there right now, I told her I'm loosing my food, we had just used our foods stamps and bought up the food, $227. In food, long story short, I called crying all night and Saturday, they would hang up on me, I even asked them to bring back the refrigerator, that was fixed for 30 days, when the one worker came in Monday, ( he was suffering with tyroyd (?) Cancer nice man,) he helped me move all the bad meat and dairy out to garbage, he went personally to udean, and told him I lost $227. In groceries, took the reciept, well the kind jolly man, took $20. Out of his pocket and gave it to him to give to me, his cousin that worked in the next office overheard the conversation, and also gave him $20. When he came back to my house he was so sincerely upset for me, because of how heartless they were, and even pulled $20. From his own pocket, ( I don't know what happened to him, he doesn't work for the Burke's anymore,)

Justwhoiam, you see it's standings like this that make me wonder who you are, standing up for myself to expose the truth behind this Christian company and family and to save myself and my grandchildren, judge you say, activist you say, count the cost before hand, ( before I stand up, after all the evil, and hurt brought on us just because I live beneth them,. I sit here wondering if you are a burke, or a friend, if so I say to you, you have kept me in the bondage of fear for so long, worrying you would hurt my animals or grandchildren,
my extra funds that were greatly needed for other things were spent on extra locks, camera's, and protection devices, Nancy and udean would drive their maroone van and her little Audi, not just in my driveway, but around in my yard, around my house, I could open the door, and there they are driving around my house and yard, when I told them finnaly to stop, this is my yard and home, I was quickly told this is udeans property, as God himself is my WHITNESS, in all the years I have lived here paying them their money,. I have never had peace and comfort in my home, they still come unannounced on my property, I always must watch constantly even when the children play for vehicals driving up, they are rude and cruel, I have found the courage to stand and fight them publicly, I will not coward in the bondage of fear anymore, ( the cost will be what ever God allows, )

Thanks for that reminder, you are right, I must fight them publicly, I do this mainly for help, if people see who they really are, and what they do against others that live beneith them,. Then maybe I can find help and support to get me out of here. And at the same time holding them accountable, for my dispare, I know they are also at fault in causing me to be in financial distress, I wish all of this never happened, but the fact is this is my life, and I will be stuck in this twilight zone, unless a true merical takes place,. I am trying not to hate, but I have to be honest, I am having a hard time.

I think he meant that if you're going to go against these people, and advocate for yourself, then you might want to consider all possible scenarios that could happen if you do. These people sound very nasty and potentially dangerous, and what it comes down to is, it's their word against yours. They could do all sorts of retaliation on you: call CPS and get the grandkids taken away, take your pets to the pound, evict you without notice, etc..

I do know about section 8, you can find a house anywhere if the landlord will accept section 8 your good, I use to work for the housing authority years ago, here for some reason the section 8; process is so slow, I never filled because even though I struggled I still paid my bills, did alot of yard sale to keep us going, my daughter is in and out, my daughter has mental illness, she has not signed papers for me to have gardianship, and here In north carolina grandparents can care for and raise their grandchildren but have no rights, I after all the years I have cared for these children and my daughter, have just started the battle of getting guardianship it's going to be a battle, and I can not afford an attorney, as for DSS they are involved they are useless, I signed up with the federal government in 2014 basically for protection and help if needed, I am filling a report,
My serious issue now is either raising money to get the rent paid. But my hope is to raise enough money to afford me relocation, then I can look for another place for us to live, I have the children and their animals, so I want a home similar to what I have now,. I am so darn sad, that I should have to move, and that I just can not get this family to see they have serverly wronged us, I don't mind forgiveness, but they have to make things right, and let me live In peace, my sincere hope is their sin will devistate them, in Spirit, and they will see that they have done terrible, and change their way,
One of the rules on this site, (and it's a good rule, since this is how the owner makes his money), is we can't ask for money. (You haven't, so don't worry.)

But, if you get a Go Fund Me page going, that doesn't mean you can't PM me the link, and I can't mention it to friends and family on other sites.

As I said before, I'm a Yankee. I live in Philly, one of the highest cost-of-living areas in the country. I'm thinking four month's rent in Carolina has got to be cheaper than around here. And, yeah, I would send you it, if I could afford it.

Warning though, some of the tread marks left on my back was from that time we were so broke, and we did ask for help, but didn't get anything from the Christian community, and very little from family. (What we did get was so timely and so perfect in amount, I know that was God.)

For future reference, whenever the landlord's neglect or irresponsibility (like not reimbursing you for the cost of using your electricity for a month) costs you, write a letter to the landlord with the deductions taken out of your rent. And show the evidence. (Like a copy of your electric bill or photos of the rotting food and the dead refrigerator.) Now, legally, you're supposed to put that money in an account, in case the court finds in favor of the landlord, but if you can't afford to do that, not like the money will magically appear to do that.

This forces their hand. They have two options:
1. Let it go.
2. Take you to court.

Keep copies of your correspondence (and the copies you sent to them of bills and dead appliances.) And don't worry about needing a lawyer in court with you. Unless the amount of money they're taking you to court over is $5,000+ -- might be $10,000 today, since I'm working with memories from the 1980's -- (in which case, why can't you afford a new place? lol), this goes to small-claims court, where you don't need lawyers.

The burden of proof is on them, not you. Your proof you already have in writing. Judges are usually fair. (They can be bought, but usually it cost more to buy them then the settlement asked for in a small claims court.) I've been on both sides of that court visit (renter and went with my boss, the landlord, once -- more nervous with my boss, because suddenly I had to look like I knew what I was doing lol), and have never seen it turn out wrong. Since they know they are in the wrong, they probably won't take it to court. They'll probably just keep nagging you for "their money."

As for electric fence that close to a child? I suspect that's a zoning violation. That's a different department. I can tell you who to go to in Philly, but no idea for anywhere else. I bet your local electrical union knows though. (Ha! And don't be fooled. I suspect both Carolinas aren't union states, but that doesn't mean there is no union. lol)

(I've just come to realize how many people I know their back story to on this site. lol)

JustasIam wasn't scolding you. He's got the tread marks of a different kind on his back. Remember I told you I cannot stand up because hubby still needs those people that caused him more problems, along with the help they did give? Just is like that. He's had the cost whipped against his back too. It hurts. It's infuriating. But, above all else, we have to protect our family. (Even if family is both the cause and the effect.) Quite often we should fight, but can't fight. He's just warning you about that, WHILE encouraging you too.

We all want to fight injustices, but when it's this close to having our very homes and lives on the line, it's good to count the cost.

I will fight. I feel bad I cannot fight now. But there will be a day when my family is no longer in danger. THEN I fight for other families who also cannot speak up. My fight is the VA health system. But, again, that's it for medical help for hubby, and he needs medical help, so I don't want them mad at him for something I started. (Already tried that approach, and man! Those treadmarks hide the bruises that are still there. He got yelled at in his hospital bed for something I did...morons!
:mad: Them, not you.)

So, yeah. Really. Fight if you can, but don't lose your family and home by choosing to fight too soon.

*** My. Update,. As of 1/25/17,. Still having problems and issues, But since joining c.c., And opening up about my serious issues, and how I felt about Christianity,. For those that took time to talk with me,. Thank you.
I went to church Wednesday night, for the first time in a long time, I am not sure what the future will bring, but I know there are good Christian people out there, those that honor scripture, And I have decided that if I want to get through this, fellowship may be the key. Now I know c.c has backed away from me, that's okay, ( I will follow scripture, ) thanks for the time many of you gave me, like I said, I still have a serious issues with the ( so called , Christians) I deal with, and I really don't know what will happen, the only thing I do know is, ( I won't blame Christianity, or all Christians, because of a few bad eggs. ). And I will try to get back in church and stay there,...

Those people will not evict you. Eviction is a legal process. Now, they may be the land owners, but they are not the law. However, if the get a valid court order, it will be enforced.
