To Jennifer's detractors

Post by mj2 »

I’m gonna try a keep this brief, but I’ve got a feeling I’m gonna have to type until this story gets told. Been a member for a little while, but I don’t post. Just like to keep tabs on Mr. P. I know most of the regulars from your post even though you don’t know me.

That brings me to my point. Because of Mr. P’s honest and intimate brand of humor, we feel we know him and in some weird way have to protect him. That’s probably why there are skeptics where Jennifer is concerned. Even though it was none of my business, I was concerned about her motives. But before I passed judgement, I read a lot of her posts to get a feel for where she was coming from. I could tell she was the real deal. One day I checked the site and someone dissed Jen in a post. I felt compelled to defend her, but before I could about ten of the regulars took care of him. Turns out she needed no help. Jen (no shrinking violet) made short work of the ass so I new my services were not needed.

To shed a bit more light on Jen’s character there’s something you should know. Among her many causes, Jen tirelessly gives her time and money to Sheenway a educational program for children in the Los Angeles community of Watts and South Central Los Angeles, where children are threatened by the violence that grows out of economic desperation and racism. I know this because members of my dojo went there as kids and continue to support it as adults. Everyone there who has encountered her speaks of how sincere and passionate she is about their cause. She was at a event there Friday. There was no media there with exception of a Spanish speaking station doing a documentary. I’ve learned that you know someone’s character from what they do when no one is watching.

I feel comfort in knowing, that during a difficult time in Mr.P life, he’s got someone who genuinely loves him and cares for him. To those who feel the need to disrespect Jen, I challenge you to read some of her posts (God knows there’s enough of them :) ). Then if you still feel the need to diss her, take your best shot. Be prepared though for what you get back. Sorry if I rambled or the story seemed disjointed but I felt this had to be said.

mj2,

I'm so glad you wrote about this. I was actually present on Friday @ sheenway School and Cultural Center. I was able to see first hand what you describe about Jennifer in person. It was really an amazing site to see - She loves those kids and they see something special in her too. I was fortunate enough to be able to take some photos - I will definitely share if any are good enough. It was a great day.

Vee,

Thanks for further confirmation Vee. I'm going to be volunteering time to Sheenway along with some of the Sheenway alumni I train with so I look forward to meeting you and Jennifer in future.

Peace

mj2,

There's lots of people who love Jennifer around here, and a few assholes from time to time. It is sad how the voices of a few can drown out the voices of many sometimes. But the only thing that matters is that Jennifer has the love of one person on here...

mj2,

Thank you for telling the story. I know who Jennifer really is and what she is about, as she is my sister, and best friend. It does my heart good however to see that people also recognize and observe her as I do, and appreciate her for it. I know she appreciates and values all of you enormously.

astonamous,

Its Ditto, especially for me aswell.
Richard's humor and selflessness has brought me thus far in my life, and I cannot thank you nor Richard enough for your work..

To all of you whom have already acted in stupidity toward the mrs. here, or have thought about it, let me save you the trouble in telling you to fuck off, because that conflict is not welcome here.(as it has been pointed out here before).
If you've got nothing constructive to say about our topics, then shut the hell up..Simple.

Thank you, once again. b.b
