Taxi Nights- Albanian Louie and Me

IT's been two years since I worked for ACS. Now I am a taxi driver on the night time streets of New York. People have told me there's a book somewhere in the mix and I'm trying to write it here at www.taxinights.blogspot.com

Matt Skis The Void. And pulls rules out of who knows where.

Matt is an ex ACS worker who takes exception to me and to what I did and did not do in the child fatality case that helped precipitate the showdown I had with Adegbola, Vargas and the idiocracy of Administration for Children's Services. Here is his link.

Matt makes up rules as he goes along and despises the poor who were his "clients."

Here is one Matt exchange
"Putting Your Personal Life Onto the Sidewalk, For The Daily News To See...."
Matt said...
I am surprised you lasted as long as you did there. I made it through only a few months, and I have to agree that ACS was far more problematic to deal with than any of my clients. I was lucky to have awesome supervision, but it wasn't for me and I went quickly back to the private sector. The problems there are quite serious and far-reaching, bad casework is only a small part of it. There are some great people, but there are not enough of them. In the interest of equal time, I found it a waste of my life to deal with the stupid problems of uneducated people who made the very poor choice to reproduce without having the mental or financial means to support that bad decision. Clients: Please stop doing drugs. Please stop beating your wife and children. Please go back to school and finish your education. School & Work is whats going on, there is no option 3. Also, this site would be a little more credible without the odd mixture of soft-porn and pseudospirituality.

Matt, the soft porn is a stab at irony and perhaps it doesn't work.

As for what you call pseudo spirituality I do believe there is a God of justice and mercy and I do believe there is right and wrong. Most ACS staff would profess a belief in and a fear of God. I try to address them on this level.

As for your attitude toward the poor and their right to reproduce I'm totally against it. I oppose all anti human ideologies such as Malthusianism which is old time nazism. There are not "too many people" on earth, there are too many two legged pigs.

Here is the second exchange with Matt:
"Jean-Philippe, Joycelyn (ACS),- Can't read for comprenesion too well. (Revised June 1, 2007)" Matt said...
Anytime there is a child fatality, it is of the utmost necessity that the home still be assessed immediately and thoroughly for the presence and/or safety of any remaining children. Every square inch thoroughly examined. Any failure to act on the part of ACS/ECS in this instance could've resulted in additional child injury and/or fatality, regardless of police involvement and what the ORT said. The police do police work, not Child Protective work. You don't know anything for sure about the presence or condition of any other children in the home until you go in and verify. I would think that is obvious. You are VERY lucky you didn't wind up on the front page of the Post on this one.

Where did you get this "regulation"? Did you pull it out of your ass?


Matt you are wrong. Do you really think that if a child in Soho or Tribeca or Central Park West or President Street dies ACS comes barging into the home without a warrant at two in the morning after the detectives have already torn the place apart??

Read what I wrote, this time for comprehension. We went to the home even though there was no legitimate CPS report. The state 800 operator in the case spiced up the report the second time around, but I was alreaduy enroute to the apartment. The father denied us entry. He asked us to come back at a reasonable hour. He refused to allow us to awaken and terrorize his neighbors who had helped him at that unGodly hour. He refused to allow us to terrorize his surviving child.

Matt you might have barged in without a warrant and possibly would have gotten away with it too.

Interestingly Hani Malek, the Supe I who accompanied me on the case was soon promoted once I submitted my resignation from ACS. Adegbola and the crew who rang everyone's doorbell in that Harlem apartment building of course had no consequences for their lawless acts. People like them are lucky that the poor tend to be overwhelmed with surviving because that allows impunity. I do believe that there is justice somewhere. God hates ugly.

I intend to post on this and also on what you represented as a CPS worker.

Well then just what does Matt represent as a CPS worker? He represents a mode of thought that justifies the State interfering in the raising of poor and minority children from a point of view that these children should never have been born to begin with. He justifies terrorizing poor and minority parents and government lawlessness. He represents state undermining of parental authority. He represents the government imposition of a certain religious point of view- that the Bible was wrong in its advice for parents : Proverbs 13:24 “Whoever spares the rod hates his son, but he who loves him is diligent to discipline him.” While I personally do not agree with this Bible passage, it is in the bible, millions of people believe it is correct, millions have been raised this way and have gone on to be productive human beings and the government has no right to impose it's viewpoint, or mine, or Matt's on parents in their homes. In fact I'd like to ask Matt if he would do a survey among his fellow real estate investors: Find out how many of them received physical discipline from their parents. Then find out if any former foster children are among them. I'll go it even further than that: Find out how many had parents who had drug or alcohol problems, and in whose homes the father hit the mother. I think he'll find many, many, many who were physically disciplined and who also had troubled homes, but damned few if any real estate investors who survived New York City's foster care system.

Just as he cannot understand how I lasted ten and a half years in Child Protective Services I don't understand why he wanted to leave it. Oh, money.
