This topic on "The Debate" is one of the matter at hand. Not just the infamous presidential one that's looming largely over the United States, but its counterpart. The question here is, is the filming industry under siege? We have seen some of the same movies redone over and over. If not so, then go back to the 1970's, 80's, & 90's. Then take a look at some of the films that are shot today. Are we lacking originality? We must go against the grain and find our true sense of inspiration and creativity. Then produce the masterpiece films that I know we as writers are capable of. Let's borrow from the past, but not so much to the point that we are building from the same platform. Be different. Alter your presence. Get creative and insightful. I mean, not all movies are reconstructed the same even if they are seamlessly redundant. Some of them are very fun to watch. What I'm saying here is that we should not only borrow from the past, but let's add our own spice to the creative minds that may have paved the way for us. I give thanks to every writer that has written before me, because they have either shown us the way as creators and as artists. Let's perfect our craft so that we can inspire others after us to be great.
Whenever there's a touchy subject in any script that goes against the world's thinking, then we have to find a way to get that message across without sounding to forceful. Things have to be done with ease of transition into the matter. Although sometimes the direct approach does work. Let's just say, for example. The topic on terrorism. This topic has been the cornerstone of America's biggest movement.
It's not one that can be taken lightly, but one that must be acted upon in a direct measure. With this type of response to the matter the military has to move quickly, efficiently, and tactful. Hence the latter word. With that said, let's take a look at how one can be tactful with a message. Simplicity is the best way. Get to the basics of the message, and implement it with slow change. For example, we take a look at Obama-Care. It was instituted to help those in need of health care and was ultimately offered to anyone for a reasonably low funded amount. This change was direct, but gained traction slowly. It is a prime example of tactfulness.
If we wrote our scripts, books, storyboards, and spoke with these kind of diplomatic principles behind not only our words, but our actions, then I'm a firm believer that America and "The Debate would be a heck of a lot smoother.

The real issues America face
The real is at hand that Americans face are not from the outside world. It is strictly from within. With so many foreigners able to join the US military, I feel that we face more internal problems than we do from outsiders. My take on this stems from the diverse cultures within the US military that are given the opportunity to fight for this country. How can we fight other countries when we have enlisted soldiers from those ethnic backgrounds. Such as Spanish, Haitian, Africans, possibly even Middle Eastern people serving in the US military. It's crazy. Mostly because of the fact that even if you are American born and a US citizen you are still able to serve in our military. How can they be trusted. The internal fact of our technology and defense is being compromised. This is a pressing issue. One that needs to be addressed. We need only American soldiers in our military. That way, our information and secrets are not stolen. United we stand, divided we fall. There is way too much division within our military and our country in todays living. This needs to be fixed or else this country will suffer severely. These are only my opinions and not facts. But ones that I feel need to be properly discussed at hand. The best way to do this is to have an open dialogue with our government and it's policies. I myself have never fought in the military, mainly because of this issue. How can I fight with them and the guy next to me is from another ethnic background or of another decent? This boggles me. It should boggle the minds of those enlisted. The military of the US is flawed. The only thing good about it is the medical benefits. Other than that, the soldiers that go off to serve and fight for this country have nothing to fall back on when they are released or resign from their service. We even let people that are not leaders in no way, run our country and its politics. This is truly going to be the fall of a great country. The United States.

Florida teens. They are poised to make a name for themselves, either one way,
or another. Led by the Dillard high school basketball Phenom in Pasco
Richardson who is a Fort Lauderdale native, he guides his clique as a bona fide
goon in the streets. As time prevails throughout his fast paced teenage life,
he encounters new comrades and troubling obstacles in an attempt to reach lofty
street & life goals, but with the help of his friends, triumph is only a basket,
a bullet, & a robbery away. A lengthy prison sentence steals his short
lived teenage years away and forces him to grow up even faster, but now in a
different way & setting. This time away enables him to devise an even
brighter plot for street domination!

errick Devon Griffin is an American black male, indie fiction
creative writing author and father of three beautiful children. His eldest
daughters name is Rae ‘Anna and the youngest ones name is Ja`Tasia. His only
son is the middle child and is named Elijah. Mr. Griffin was born March 11,
1981 in Fort Lauderdale, FL at Broward General Medical Center to parents Bebbie
L. Griffin and Derrick D. Simmons both of whom met in ‘The Sunshine State’ of South
Florida. His mother still resides in Broward County, and his dad lives in
Fayetteville, NC. His mom is originally from Lake City, FL and his dad is from
Newark, NJ. His dad is also of twin descent. Although an only child to his
mother, he has a sister named Leslie Melvin through his dad. Derrick began
writing as an outlet and a hobby to escape the pressures of not being in his
natural habitat. While being incarcerated, he began to understand his talent
and true calling. Upon being released, he decided to take his writing talent as
a full time job. Before taking his writing to the next level he knew he had
talent while attending Broward Community College. “Teachers would always tell
me that my papers that I turned in were excellent, thus giving me an A in
English (Chesum) This was when I took
notice that I had some valuable creative talent”. After a very turbulent period
during his later years due to drugs and run-ins with the law that led to a prison
stint in Florida Department of Corrections, Mr. Griffin began to hone his
talents while behind the prison walls. He has grown to become a model citizen
and a brilliant creative writing talent. This is the first release of the many
titles that will soon follow “Street Cred”. He is also currently engaged in a
few screenplay submissions for some hopeful movie adaptations. “It’s been a
long journey to where I am now, but I know that that road still has many more
miles that stretch very far. So the only thing for me to do, is to keep
traveling it and to let it take me as far as I can go”.
Upcoming Title names
- Camouflage
- Camouflage 2
- Sins & Forgiveness
- Diamond In The Ruff*Movie adaptations will follow some short stories.
