Man arrested for throwing 6-week-old
baby on ground in Lehigh Acres

Wednesday, Lee County Sheriff’s Office arrested Pedro
Ramirez Jr., 39, after he was accused of throwing a 6-week-
old baby on the ground at a Lehigh Acres home.

The baby suffered bruising to their head and a fracture to
their skull. The baby was transported to a hospital, but we
do not have an update on the child’s condition Thursday.

Investigators say Ramirez was involved in a domestic
dispute Monday. When they got to the home, that’s when they
discovered a 6-week-old baby with severe injuries.

“When I hear stuff like that, it’s really hurts my heart to
know that somebody could do that just because they’re mad
at somebody,” Germine Lawrence said. “Why would they do
such a thing?. The baby is innocent. It wasn’t the baby’s
fault. It’s two adults. Don’t get a baby involved in
something like that.”

Ramirez took off from the home after throwing the baby to
the ground. He was picked up days later at a gas station in
Lehigh Acres after a warrant was issued for his arrest.

“It’s shocking, really shocking that something like that,
you know, right in your neighborhood,” Lawrence said.

Ramirez remained in custody at Lee County Jail on $50,000
bond Thursday. He’s faces charges for with aggravated child
abuse and two counts of probation violation.

Re: Covid re-infection

Dear Webby,
Just wanted to clarify something you said in today's
newsletter.

Having and recovering from covid is NOT 100% against
getting it a 2nd time.
While it is rare, it does happen and was being confirmed as
early as Oct 2020 in the US and earlier world wide.

People who had covid and get the vaccine have more vaccine
side effects - so unless there is a lot of covid in your
area I would not recommend getting the vaccine.

But don't allow the fact that you have had covid lull you
into a false sense of security.

If you do not believe me just search - covid reinfection.
There are many examples from reliable sources.
Take care and live long.
Ginger

Dear Ginger
Please keep in mind that most of he BS about Vax is just
politically motivated BS.
Also keep in mind that Covid is actually just next year's
Flu vax, that got out early, out of sequence, and not fully
tested.

AND, Covid due to Vax is not exactly the same as natural
Covid.

Also interesting is that real Covid kills Flu virus, Fake
Covid due to Vax does not.

As one famous doctor answered about how long Covid will
stay in the news:
"I don't know. I am a doctor, not a politician."

Have FUN!

The census taker rang the doorbell and was
quite surprised when the door was
opened by a nude woman.
"Don't be alarmed," she said, "I'm a nudist."

Although somewhat embarrassed, the man
proceeded to ask the routine questions.
"How many children do you have?" he asked.

"Eighteen." The lady replied.

"Lady," he gasped, "you're not a nudist--you
just don't have time to get dressed!"

During a service at an old synagogue in
Eastern Europe, when the Shema prayer was
said, half the congregants stood up and half
remained sitting.
The half that was seated started yelling at
those standing to sit down, and the ones
standing yelled at the ones sitting to stand up.

The rabbi, learned as he was in the Law and
commentaries, didn't know what to do.
His congregation suggested that he consult a
housebound 98-year old man, who was one of
the original founders of their temple. The rabbi
hoped the elderly man would be able to tell him
what the actual temple tradition was,
so he went to the nursing home with a
representative of each faction of the
congregation.

The one whose followers stood during Shema
said to the old man, "Is the tradition to stand
during this prayer?"
The old man answered, "No, that is not the
tradition."
The one whose followers sat down, asked,
"Is the tradition to sit during Shema?"
The old man answered, "No, that is not the
tradition."
Then the rabbi said to the old man, "The
congregants fight all the time, yelling at each
other about whether they should sit or stand!"
The old man interrupted, exclaiming,
"THAT is our tradition!"
