I ain’t kidding - I consider this a “badge of honor” - it is very ironic.
What a joke.
And to think - my kin was Stephano - Shakespheare’s goddamn Tempest - so really Hopkins - do what you must I reckon - it is evident you can’t handle opposition in view - and that is telling.
And to think - all your complaining about this and that - and then you do the same thing.
So - I’m going to post an image above has nothing to do with this - cause this is the sort of bullshit I’m sick and fucking tired of. Get a clue pal.
If you dismiss those who “make you uncomfortable” then seems you are not made of the stuff it takes to survive pal - and if you think I am a “troll” then you evidently have not done your homework.
So grade F delivered upon you - get a clue.

Unfortunately - I been banned from Hopkins - CJ place - so I can’t respond to this, but if I did respond I would say this in resopnse:
I agree - and ain’t it ironic J.P?

Now this post needs some music - I’m thinking something along the lines of cuckoo bird - so here - let me share this for free - and I’ve already gone on record - ain’t nobody gets banned here - unless you break the basic rule - but I didn’t do that - and once again - that is telling:
check this out - I can’t find what I’m looking for - but check this out:
Now let me see if that link still works:
Sure - here it is:
“the eternal triangle - jealousy - mean rascal”
I got a some text - I’m searching for it - it shows the line from Stephen Hopkins - his daughter Constance - they came over with the Mayflower assembly - so I’m going to find it - so really - go ahead - ban my ass - like it will do any good for you….
Still can’t find what I’m looking for - but here is more regarding Stephen Hopkins - Stephano some think he was….
I got the evidence on this - I’ll present it later.
~~~~~~
Edit: It is later - here is some of the evidence - I got more:
(this is courtesy my cousin - she is a bit older than I being I was the 6th born from the 9th born - but she is a librarian I think - and she has done her homework. So with no further ado….”thank-you” cousin cause when a man gets older this sort of stuff seems to matter more)
Tracing Our Ancestors
Introduction
Our grandmother, Cecile Mae Higgins Hausle, had ancestors on both her mother’s (Crocker) and father’s (Higgins) side who came over on the Mayflower. But before we get to their stories, it might be helpful to provide a little context. The Mayflower carried 102 passengers and about 30 crew members ranging in age from 1-64 years old. There were men who traveled alone, 18 husband and wife couples, about 30 children and 9 servants for these families. Most of what we know about the voyage of these people and their first 30 years in Plymouth Colony comes from the history of the colony written by the long term governor, William Bradford. Six of the 102 passengers on the Mayflower were our direct ancestors.
John Howland
John and Joann Tilley and their daughter Elizabeth
Stephen Hopkins and his daughter Constance
What difference does it make - when I say my kin been here a long time - I mean it - I ain’t kidding around - of course there were others here beforehand, but I take solace that my kin from the get-go were known and practiced in the art of “getting along” with others - why you think he opened up a “pub” a “tavern” an “inn” if you like when the family landed in Plymouth? Oh, I know already - he wanted to be separated from the Puritan authorities and they tolerated “his ass” cause bottom line is - even gubners needs fella know how to get along with the “natives” restless - plus - lets be honest - even the Puritans needed a stiff shot of whiskey every now and then - so really - lets not be hypocrites - I got the direct line - I just can’t find it now - I will later.
Here is a “little” more….and truly - I find it ironic another “Hopkins” banned my ass:
Stephen was an assistant to the governor through 1636 but by the late 1630s, Stephen began to occasionally run afoul of the Plymouth authorities, as he apparently opened up a shop and served alcohol. In 1636 he got into a fight with John Tisdale and seriously wounded him. In 1637, he was fined for allowing drinking and shuffleboard playing on Sunday. Early the next year he was fined for allowing people to drink excessively in his house: guest William Reynolds was fined, but the others were acquitted. In 1638 he was twice fined for selling beer at twice the actual value, and in 1639 he was fined for selling a looking glass for twice what it would cost if bought in the Bay Colony. Also in 1638, Stephen Hopkins' maidservant, Dorothy, got pregnant from Arthur Peach, who was subsequently executed for murdering an Indian. The Plymouth Court ruled that Stephen was financially responsible for her and her child for the next two years (the amount remaining on her term of service). Stephen, in contempt of court, threw Dorothy out of his household and refused to provide for her, so the court committed him to custody. John Holmes stepped in and purchased Dorothy's remaining two years of service from him: agreeing to support her and child (liberally quoted from the Mayflower website).
Stephen’s daughter, Constance Hopkins (1706-1677), who had come on the Mayflower with her father, married Nicholas Snow (1599-1650) in Barnstable MA in 1627. Nicholas had arrived in Plymouth colony as an indentured servant on the ship called the Anne in 1623. Two ships, the Anne and the Little, were sent to provide supplies and additional colonists for the first settlers from the Mayflower. Many of the passengers who arrived on these two ships were sent back because they were unable to tolerate the harsh conditions in the colonial environment. However, Constance and Nicholas thrived and had 11 children of whom Ruth Snow (1644-1716) was the 10th. Ruth Snow married John Cole (1644-1724) in Barnstable in 1666. The first of their 7 children was another Ruth, Ruth Cole (b 1667) who married William Twining (1654-1755) in Barnstable in 1689. Two of their daughters, Ruth (1699-1793) and Mercy (1707-1757) married two brothers, Joshua Higgins (1695-1768) and David Higgins (1707-1757).
The Mayflower history website estimates that there are 20 million descendants of the Mayflower passengers, but, like us, most of them don’t realize it. John Howland and Elizabeth Tilley had 10 children, all of whom survived to adulthood and had many children of their own. As a result, they have more descendants than any of the other Pilgrims. The most famous ones include President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, both Presidents George Bush, Alec Baldwin, Humphrey Bogart, Ralph Waldo Emerson, the founder of the Mormon Church, Joseph Smith, Benjamin Spock, and Sarah Palin. Like us, Benjamin Spock, Ralph Waldo Emerson and both Presidents Bush are direct descendants of Hope Howland, the daughter of John and Elizabeth. Sarah Palin is the only famous descendant of Stephen Hopkins that we have located. An outline of our direct lineages is shown below with the year, or approximate year, of marriage for each couple.

After I received that message I tried to reply - but no go - I've been banned once again.
I don't mind getting banned - I've banned from so many places....
but the truth is uncomfortable - ain't it.
Live with it - or don't.
the choice is yours.
I've made mine.
I’m curious to know what he banned you for?
