Where is Erasmo, Ben, Ruben?
The sly of wit,
The judge of judges,
The paladin of the common man
They lie buried,
Sleeping, dreaming
In the old river's delta plain
Erasmo's chairmanship reward
Came way too late
And mean politics killed Ben,
And a courtroom at his school
Is named after Ruben
They lie together
There, there
In the old river's delta plain
They all three knew each other
And relished in the game
Competed with, and fought each other
And left the arena friends
Erasmo wanted kids to learn
Ben that the world be fair
Ruben that we teach and share
They battled their demons
And overcame...
Ignored the haters,
Stayed in the game
Lord of the heavens
Keep them in your hands
As they now lie together
In the dark soils
Of your somber plain
Erasmo, in the heaven of the wry
Benito, in the land of the just
And Ruben, teaching us to trust
Peace be with them, and with us

No confirmation they made it upstairs...check the log for Hell, Juan...
Erasmo "wanted the boys to learn bent over." He was a wolf in sheep's clothing. Come on a minister who thrives on "chisme?"
It may be sad to some people that he is no longer on earth but Brownsville is a better place without him.
Can several people testify and list 13 instances where he seriously helped someone out of the kindness of his heart?
We are all going to die. Just don't make a hero out of the town baffoon.
We will all be pushing daisies.
Let it go! One good man, a mariguano borracho, and pedophile met at the pearly gates...so what. Two out of three is bad.
Again, Juan shows us his Gay side.
Bitch, you are the only one dreaming of Juan being gay. Te gusta el chorizo. Nobody not one single person comes here thinking about the fudge packing except YOU.
Rubén was a good man. He does not belong with those pendejos
I bet Ruben never dreamed that he would be clumped with the riff raff.
It's shitty how Erasmo is trashed here despite having been accused, by someone who was later convicted of corruption via the FBI, of sexual misconduct that were actually over accusations about taking photos of children as though they weren't selfies that he took with them whom asked him to do it because he was a local celebrity. That same convict made even more allegations that were investigated and cleared about having him taken a child to a bar. That was proved to not have happened.
What bullshit people hold onto despite evidence to the contrary just because it suits their bigotry about someone they didn't like.
His was a story of redemption. He was the king of these same fools that so often post here, and he changed his ways; but they didn't, yet they're still here; and he's not. Like they say, "The more things change, the more they stay the same."
Then we have Ben who was known for being a lenient judge over matters of cannabis for which its illegality is stewed in corruption and racism. "Marijuana" is a made up name that was made in the USA to sound Mexican. Despite how fucked up the drug war is and how much it makes the mafia rich--just like it did in the 1930s--we have people shitting on him for a kindess that is as it cannot be taken any other way. Now we also have private prisons with State contracted requirements to minimize their vacancies.
It seems as though people can just say the most bigoted trash about someone that passes for a possibility, and it just sticks around here, and that's how you end up with a bunch of the fakest snakes in suits that spill corporate platitudes about bringing the community together while they redline forclosures and make sweet deals with their compadres--never saying anything controversial, but acting so behind closed doors, yet these fools seem to prefer these slippery snakes that are otherwise hard to remember were it not for the misdeeds that Juan has journalized.
Just look at how trashy so many people are in these comment sections. They look as stupid as the shit they say, and it stinks as much as it lacks substance; it must be their breath.
These people that Juan wrote about, like Juan, themselves frequently provided for the community whether or not they were running for office or otherwise had any direct benefit, yet despite these moments being journalized, these illiterate fools whom couldn't critically analyze their way through filing their own single-sheet income tax form--just like how they never learned how to fill in their own worksheets in school--see fit to talk confidently about things that, so journalized, are demonstrably wrong. Maybe that's why they never put their names out here; because they couldn't fill a blank even if it was for their own name. It might be because their heads are the same: blank, yet filled with the stink of the shit they keep breathing out.
As they say, "You can't reason someone out of something they didn't reason themselves into," and, "You can't polish a turd."
