Is this the same labor commissioner that had effectively used the knowledge and tactics he gained in that position and then used it to empower employers to the detriment of workers when he was employed by private sector institutions, which is similar to Robinson now a lawyer is able to use these knowledge and tactics to find flaws in the police. Are we speaking gloriously of the same individual?
Give me a break you all set ah hypocrites.
“If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” 1 John 1:9
“For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.” 2 Corinthians 5:10
“For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.” Ecclesiastes 12:14
It’s hard to feel sorry and mourn an man that despite the good he may have done in the past has been for years one of the main architects of the wickedness that some people in this society have felt. He through his massa mentality bosses have put their feet on the necks and backs of the poor people with the aid of their cronies in high places while they themselves get richer. We should look at a persons entire lives; the good and the bad and not just gloss over the areas in their lives that have had such profound impacts on so many people.
We was an inspirations to all who want to excel well in life.
