SHHHH! While we listen to words of wisdom from a wise man.
Conscience is the light of the Soul that burns within the chambers of our psychological heart. It is as real as life is. It raises the voice in protest whenever anything is thought of or done contrary to the righteousness. Conscience is a form of truth that has been transferred through our genetic stock in the form of the knowledge of our own acts and feelings as right or wrong. A virtuous and courageous person can alone use the instrument of conscience. He or she can alone hear the inner voice of the soul clearly. In a wicked person this faculty is absent. The sensitive nature of his / her conscience has been destroyed by sin or corruption. Hence he or she is unable to discriminate right from wrong. Those who are leading organizations, business enterprises, institutions and governments should develop this virtue of the ability to use their own conscience. This wisdom of using the clean conscience will enable them to enjoy the freedom.
Dr APJ Kalam, President of India given during the inauguration of the seminar on “THE EFFECTS OF CORRUPTION ON GOOD GOVERNANCE AND HUMAN RIGHTS

St. Paul / Once a cop, always a cop
City Council Member Dan Bostrom helps police pursue gun-toting youth to house
BY JASON HOPPIN
Pioneer Press
Dan Bostrom's colleagues on the St. Paul City Council may want to give the most senior member a new nickname — Action Dan.
Between a Wednesday afternoon community meeting and an appointment at City Hall, the retired St. Paul police officer aided in the arrest of a boy suspected of brandishing a weapon on Edgerton Street.
Bostrom had just gotten in his car after a meeting at Merrick Community Center when he saw a gray Jeep speed down Edgerton on the wrong side of the road.
"This guy had floored it, and he was taking off," Bostrom said.
Looking back, Bostrom, 66, saw a boy standing in the middle of the street, pointing a gun at the car.
The youth didn't fire but lingered near the intersection of Minnehaha Avenue and Edgerton, pacing back and forth.
Bostrom called 911, but he saw the youth leaving the area before the police arrived.
That's when the old cop instincts kicked in. Bostrom turned his Crown Victoria around and tailed the suspect as he left the area.
"Didn't want to lose him," Bostrom said.
Bostrom was soon joined by a squad car, and he signaled to the officer in order to identify the youth.
"I don't know if he had any idea that we were following," Bostrom said.
Bostrom and the officer saw the boy enter a house on Reaney Avenue. About then, an onrush of police cars arrived.
According to Bostrom, police knocked on the door and were told that the youth, who had just entered, left through the back door.
However, it didn't appear there were tracks leaving the residence.
Police entered the house and asked Bostrom to identify clothing he had seen the youth wearing. The youth was then arrested.
St. Paul police confirmed the story and said a pellet gun was recovered at the house, but they did not release the juvenile's name.

Go Dan!
Onto the landlords!
Finally a councilman that does what the say they'll do!
Now if the other 6 do as Dan did, that is 7 less police officers we would have to hire. And maybe they all will learn something about fighting crime and not blaming buildings and innocent people.
They don't have to learn anything at all about fighting crime and not blaming buidlings and innocent people, they already know it, and they use it to their advantage whenever they can by persecuting and prosecuting the weak and innocent. They're nothing but a bunch of cowards.
Dan Bostrom is one of the finest police officers St. Paul has ever had. His son is Assistant Police Chief in St. Paul.
St. Paul is very lucky to have Dan and Matt.
Anonymous is St. Paul
Thanks Dan.....
I don't have one ounce of respect for the Police any longer. I've worked a job all my life, paid my taxes, invested in society and been law abiding and now the Police want to come along and say I am the problem because I own a building and they can't control the people that live there? I wouldn't spit on a cop if he was on fire!!
2:41 - I bet he'd spit on you!
And, I bet you deserve it you f'ing landlord!
