The Fictitious Freedom Fallacy; pt 1

Brought to me this morning to publish for you folks:

It's interesting what has transpired in the last 2 years, and especially the last two weeks of my life, given what I heard on Glenn Beck's talkshow this morning. A caller identified herself as an older mother who felt the only way to stop the tyranny of the government was to stop paying taxes (which I've been saying for a while now, although not advocating it). After an emotional outcry, Glenn told her that the most important thing for her to remember, was that she was a mother, and it would be better to be at home with her child of 10 years, showing to them what the meaning of freedom was, rather than sitting in jail, away from their little one.

Freedom. That's an interesting thought. Because, you see, just recently, I was told by a great many sources, that if I didn't surrender my freedom; if I didn't give in to the lies and tyranny of the corrupted public officials and law enforcement, that I too, would be away from my child and hurting him, and that was not the best answer. Of course, what choice did I have? When the government can hold my child over my head, like some sort of bargaining chip, than I am, truly helpless. When the people we place in charge of law and law enforcement are permitted to lie and act without accountability (think your politicians are corrupted? Try following it down the trail back to the "little" guy, and remember where those politicians came from and what they were before politicians), then We, the People, of this most perfect union, are deprived of our Constitutional rights, labeled as dangerous lawbreakers and thrown to the wolves by our peers who are ignorant of the truth behind the facts.

But, I had to make a choice. My child, or my freedom. Am I teaching him about freedom by doing what I did? I don't know. He will hear a great many things said about me now that will forever affect his life. I will spend the rest of my life labeled and in purgatory on Earth because an overzealous and corrupted Congress passed corrupted laws that are enforced by a broken system.

But, I'm just whining because I lost, right? I'm just guilty of everything charged and am only trying to cover up the facts, right? After all, that's what they say on the news. That's what "Oprah," blasts all over the media and her show. That's what the "honest," and "sincere," news reporters and Congress people tell you everyday. No, no - forget all the other lies. Thinking that these people lie all the time and about everything would just be absurd. True, but absurd. And, no, forget about the media, because we know for a FACT, that news only reports facts that are true and accurate, right?

Because, if I was guilty, why would the prosecution "use," against me, my own ten year old child, showing me that he would be ripped away from me and left to a dangerous world should I do what's right and fight for my innocence and freedom. And, why would any prosecution lie about prosecuting somebody? It's not like they get PAID, the more they prosecute. That would just be ridiculous, because it might undermine the entire purpose of protecting the public interest. And, don't tell me about the dishonesty of the police, or the corruption therein, simply because the State says that: The authorities have a right to lie to people, to make false promises and threaten them to get a "confession." Of course, I do "see," the fallacy in "innocence," pleas, such as Alford pleas, that are merely shells over a guilty plea, whereby one is required to assert that they haven't been threatened or coerced into the plea. Because, if I was, I am going to trial and would be gambling with my child's life. It's better that I do as the mafia.. um, oops.. sorry - Freudian slip there - the authorities require, and accept guilt for something I didn't do, in order to defend the FREEDOMS for my son.

Freedom. What a joke. The Bible says that the very basic element of God's gift of life is: free will. But, we're not free. We can't choose to make the mistakes to get us in trouble and learn from them. We can't choose right and wrong. Your television and radio and even the internet blast you daily - hourly - minute by minute - with senseless garbage telling you how to live. Your cable companies switch to high definition because you HAVE to buy a high def tv. The cell phone companies switch to new "frequencies," albeit worse reception, so that you have to buy texting/internet phones. You can't own property. You can't have food from your own two hands of hard work. You can't breathe air without paying for it. You can't have water without paying for it. (taxes on all of that for those of you that didn't get the meaning there). You can't WALK IN THE FREAKIN' FORESTS WITHOUT PAYING A FEE.

But, my son will have a father (that is, if the system doesn't push this even farther and try to mess me over even more - which I am fully prepared to accept that it might). Is he free? By no means. Just today, on the news, was the report of a 14 year old boy with pics on his phone of girls his age. While we shouldn't have our children running around doing this - the girls who sent him pictures - will see no punishment, while he, will face criminal charges for indecent child images. The fact: HE'S A CHILD. Heaven forbid my son gets ahold of an adult magazine ever, or is so into girls that he can't control his hormones without intervention. But, I wouldn't be turning him into the police, in an attempt to turn the girls in who are acting this way - because my child would go to prison for being - A CHILD. Yeah, that's freedom.

The Fictitious Freedom Fallacy; pt 2

What is the point of living, when we can't even exercise our free will anymore? Sure - you say: I exercise my free will because I choose to obey the law! Really? Is the knowledge of good and evil, as decreed by the Tree of Life and Heaven above, now defined by the same people who harm others, steal our money and commit human acts of attrocity against one another? Becuase, if so - you can't win. You can't keep up with their changing laws. The rights protected by the Republic - through the Constitution - are gone. If you suffer from irritable bowl syndrome and have to stop on the side of the road to urinate, and just one look-e-loo who can't mind their own business sees you - you have to be registered for life as a sex offender! WHAT? WHAT FREEDOM? The freedom to speak out loud? Really? Have you tried to exercise that lately? In public? Go ahead - but please - be careful, I don't want anyone to find out the hard way just how bad the situation has become. Still don't believe me? Still think I'm just "complaining?" Try this on for size:

The recent New York Mayor's "sting," to analyze the ease with which weapons could be obtained took place in Ohio, Tennesse and Nevada. The laws in Ohio state that it is not necessary to have a license or permit to buy a gun. In Tennesse, the State also does not have many of the rules that the "undercover," cops were there to test. WHAT? Wait - WHY were they there? What right did the Mayor of New York have in costing tax payers a nice, big chunk of money, to undermine the independence of these States? Look, I'm not questioning the actions of the sellers at the shows - they could have been very wrong - I don't know. What I am questioning is the ILLEGAL actions of the authorities! Are these sellers secure in their persons or things? Are they permitted FREE TRADE under the Capitalist system? NO!

What’s going on? Want to see “freedom,” being abolished: just read the laws regarding the Brady Background Check from Nevada:

  • is an ex-felon.
  • is an illegal alien.
  • has been dishonorably discharged from the Armed Forces.
  • has renounced U.S. citizenship.
  • has been convicted of a misdemeanor crime of domestic violence.
  • is under indictment or information for a [crime] punishable by imprisonment for a term exceeding one year.

BEFORE YOU JUDGE – BEFORE YOU SAY ONE WORD – lest you be more wicked than they, let me break this down for you:

1.       An ex-felon – someone who has PAID THEIR DEBT TO SOCIETY – but now shall be held without the same Constitutional freedoms as any other. WHAT are we doing? How do we expect “law” to provide reform, when we punish people for their whole lives? How do the people who make these laws expect the people to act – when THEY THEMSELVES, create harmful and harassing laws to govern the people?

2.       An illegal alien – hey, I’m not in support of illegal immigration – but this is NOT to protect the public interest – did you know that? This IS to protect the cops who go hunting these guys down. Maybe, if we had a better system, created better laws, were more “just,” and “decent,” as we, as a country, so blatantly claim to be, standing vainly before the world – we wouldn’t HAVE THIS PROBLEM! Fix one problem of Constitutional violations by creating another Constitutional violation? Only in America…. *sigh*

3.       Has Renounced U.S. Citizenship – that’s right! If you’re not with us – you’re against us! You’re a “commie!” I digress – please watch “Battle for Terra,” a very WELL DONE, and amazingly wonderful show for families of all ages, and try to understand the horrifically deranged, mental attitude that must be adopted in order to support this decision.

4.       Convicted of misdemeanor of Domestic Violence – You mean, like, their kid, while high on drugs, tried SHOOTING his mom, but dad stepped in, disarmed his kid, and struck him in the face in the process to try and bring him down and the cops arrested dad for being a violent offender against children, but in retrospect, based on a SCREWED UP system, dad only got a misdemeanor because he only hit his son once, trying to stop him from killing his own mother while high? Yeah – makes PERFECT SENSE.

5. Now – I’m going to take an extra special look at this one – because all the others – you can justify with the mental, hysteria, media-driven, brain dead mentality that governs most Americans as my just being another ignorant person who believes in Constitutional freedoms. But, this one – “is under indictment or information for a punishable by imprisonment for a term exceeding one year.” Do you KNOW what constitutes an “indictment,” by a grand jury or the truth behind these fictitious documents? Try reading more about it if you want to have your brain blown away! Here are some facts:

  • Grand Jury indictments are used in only half of the States of this Republic, because according to the 5th amendment of the Constitution – THEY ARE ILLEGAL.
  • Grand juries do NOT require ALL of the evidence, and no one is allowed to defend themselves prior to being indicted.
  • Prosecutors – include those who have been proven to lie repeatedly – are left to “good faith,” in presenting the so-called “facts.”
  • GRAND JURORS ARE NOT SCREENED FOR BIASES! That’s right – hate-mongers, family members of police and prosecutions – and all the rest – sit on these panels!

WELCOME TO FREE AMERICA. Yes – YOU can be indicted while sitting at home, with your family, in the quiet of the evening, reading scriptures together. You can be indicted while on vacation. YOU can be lied about – legally – without accountability to the lying party. YOUR indictment will sit on your record – for life. And, based on this LIE – you can be denied your right to go out hunting with your best friend, or keep a gun in your house in Arizona to protect yourself against terrorists who might raid your home, kidnap you, rape and kill you.

THAT’S FREEDOM.

THAT’S YOUR RIGHT TO EXERCISE YOUR FREE WILL AS GRANTED BY GOD.

Oh wait, no it’s not! That’s the OPPOSITE of freedom. Yet, the police went to these shows, with undercover cameras (albeit an ILLEGAL act by ANY other person than the authorities who are given exemption to do ANYTHING they want), and bought guns without background checks where NO background checks were required.

Did you read my last article on “red herrings?” If not – you may want to peruse it – you know, when you’re done getting through this long monstrosity. You see, we will not hear anymore about this. We will hear more and more about innocent people being shot, in the news, while this “investigation,” is underway, so that by the time they present a bill to Congress, they’re sure the people won’t complain about it. Know what the red herring is?

The Fictitious Freedom Fallacy; pt 3

The investigation itself is the red herring. Why? Because, this is being done based on they were given a “grant,” from our stimulus money, to do exactly this. And, they’ll get MORE of it when successful. In the Pacific Northwest, the Attorney General of Oregon applied for a more than half a million dollar grant to track down all the internet predators out there – and got it. Guess what’s happened? Magically, the amount of “internet” related busts have increased. But, when you re-read the article – the AG stated that it will allow them to better control illegal abuse of the internet, and “save jobs.”

YES – SAVE JOBS. It was NOT about the world being FULL of internet predators (although this may be true), it was about the police “saving jobs.” It was about – MONEY. And, now, they’ll stop anyone and everyone. Airports, state border patrol, and cops are randomly finding ways to search everyone’s computers and turning in so many of these cases that the Judges between California and Oregon are getting sick of hearing the B.S. and garbage being spewed by the prosecution. But, they have to make their quota and make it look like they’re doing something and didn’t just take OUR MONEY, to “save their jobs.”

The reality is this – freedom is fictitious. It’s a fallacy. Yes, it is important, as Glenn Beck said, to be able to stay at home and teach our children what freedom really is. But, that’s not possible. If we can, we must accept the horrible things the system does to us, to stay at home, and protect our children the best we can from our OWN government. Because, taking the lies they cast upon the innocent will NOT teach our children how to fight for their freedom. It WILL make them cynical and afraid – and THAT’S NOT RIGHT. But, if we can shield them, from the video games, television, commercials, news, politicians, law enforcement and other CORRUPTED agencies masquerading as something “good,” – then maybe – just maybe – they have a chance.

News report 4 days ago – a BOY SCOUT – was kicked out of school pending an investigation against him for bringing a dangerous weapon to school –

A SPORK! (with a fold-out butter knife)

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, A SPORK. But, this wasn’t just any spork-wielding, violent offender – this was a BOY SCOUT. Someone who we MUST fear and run away from! Did the boy do anything wrong with his spork of doom? Did he threaten some child with a simultaneous spooning and forking? Did he threaten to cut the teacher’s butter in half with his butter knife? Nope. He intended to…. Hold on to your seats… EAT WITH IT! Dum, dum, dum, dummmmmm!

A spork. A Boyscout. And, this is America? This is the “free” country, you hate-mongers flame me about, asking me why I just don’t move to Iraq? This is the country who protects its children against the dangerous masses taking arms against them? This is the country where a falsely accused person’s just “whining,” because they were “caught,” because the NEWS told you so?

I’m sorry. I’m sorry for you if you believe ANY of that. I’m sorry for you if you don’t understand, what it means, to be American. I’m praying for you, that you might be blessed by the Lord, to have your eyes opened without violence or suffering, so that you may enjoy the blessings of free agency. I’m praying for your children, that your belief in this “system,” and “giving it a chance,” and “not speaking out to cause ripples in the water,” doesn’t leave them where it left me. Because – you are my brothers and sisters. And, no matter WHAT the system has done to me – I still have an obligation to God to exercise what free will I have left – and that is the free will to care about others. To tell you the truth as I know it to be. To share what I’ve learned that you may understand what’s coming. To speak only of the reality of our situation, that you may find some peace and happiness in avoiding these nightmares.

Good luck, and be well, my brethren.

Lies do not become us, pt 1

  "We are men of action, lies do not become us." - The Princess Bride

And, so it is, for America. I'm about to tell you something you won't like. I'm going to give you words that will fill you with anger and frustration - so be prepared - because I'm going to tell you the truth. America, the United States Of; is the most vile, corrupted and horrid of all nations on this big, beautiful Earth.

Hate me yet? You should - that's a terrible thing to say. Why? Because I LOVE America. Because I CARE about our Country. But, it's for THAT VERY REASON, that I say what I do. I cannot stand by while the nation I love dies under the regime of tyranny and disappears forever.

When countries like Cuba or Russia or China issue out laws that condemn their children to death, permit people to be shot in the streets and allow the government to commit whatever attrocities they want (sorry to Cuba, Russia and China - you were the easiest to pick on, so I did!), they don't "hide," it. They just do it. They say they're going to do it, and then they do. What they're doing is terrible for sure, but it's not a deception or guise. It's done because it's a tyrannical regime and they admit it. But, when a country does the very same thing and lies about it; hides it; manipulates the media to report otherwise and then drives its people into a frenzied hatred for the very same thing against another country - it becomes something worse.

I've learned a lot in my investigations into spirituality, and one statement made by the founder of the specific church I am attending said the following: "We cannot blame Satan for our mistakes. The devil lurks in the shadows waiting to pounce, but we must each be accountable to ourselves and one another for our own actions." - Joseph Smith [paraphrased to be inclusive here]. He was right. I have seen evil. I know it exists. I watched it destroy my life and tear my family apart. I'm sitting at its doorsteps, waiting to take my medicine for some brutal violation of the Constitution because evil exists. However - people are people. We make mistakes, and sometimes - intentionally. Sometimes it's for profit, or revenge, and sometimes, it's just because we can. Here's the sad part - the reason that some of you may not know - may not understand - what I'm talking about, is because "they," [our government], have spent billions of dollars (of your money - don't forget that), to shield you from the truth. If you knew what was happening in your own back yard, you would no longer be able to simply live life. You would be forced into action against the very people you elected into office. The fact is - we cannot blame "evil," for the evil that has corrupted America IS its so-called "authorities."

So, I ask you - why do we care about Obama's health care plan? Heck, why do we care about ANY of the ridiculous, irrational and corrupted laws the politicians make? Why should we care that Congress just gave themselves a raise? After all - this is a Republic - and our inaliable rights are protected by a set of unchangable doctrines as set forth within the Constitution; and, it is a government run by the people. If the politicians are going against the people for their own greed and their own self-righteousness, we can simply ignore them, can't we?

Well, that is, unless of course, they enforce their corruption through some form of life-threatening fear. I don't know, like say, law enforcement? I'm not saying law enforcement itself is corrupt (the authorities do a great job saying that for themselves), but I am pointing out that the words printed on every police car: "To protect and to serve," is a miscommunication. For, you see, it is to protect and to serve whomever is the most financially beneficial to them at that particular moment in time. If they are protecting and serving the financial goals of Legislature AGAINST the people - then we are NOT the recipients of their services - just the ones paying for it. Of course, this is all easy to say - so I better start providing some examples for you non-believers:

Cell phone bans. Cell phone bans in automobiles are happening as a direct result of a series of violent and dangerous accidents that could have been avoided had the driver been paying attention! HAHAHAHAHA - no wait, oops, I was reading my fiction book again - let me flip over to my reality book... oh yeah... here it is: Cell phone bans are happening because there is a potential for a dangerous accident if someone's not paying attention while driving.

You mean, like idiots, right?

Yep - pretty sure that cell phone isn't what's distracting an idiot. Pretty sure that was an accident just waiting to happen, because they're just BAD drivers! But, on that topic, I'll digress. What's important here is this: WE ARE GUILTY. YES - YOU AND I. YOU - the reader - who has NOT been in an accident, who has NOT hurt anyone as a direct result of your blatant negligence to look at the road while prioritizing on a phone call; YOU ARE GUILTY. You WILL hurt someone. You WILL cause pain and suffering.

No - no trial for you. No Constitutional rights to be protected in your person or things without at least being charged with a crime or being faced by a jury of your peers. YOU ARE DANGEROUS. So, we HAVE to take away your cell phones. (I won't waste the time here explaining the HUGE boost for the "telephone accessories," industries this is actually supporting... hmmmm). We have to punish you. We HAVE TO GET YOU BEFORE YOU GET US. Sound familiar? If not - go read my previous article on FANATICAL LEADERS.

Lies do not become us, pt 2

[cont'd from before]
 
Is that it, though? Is it simply that the government can make laws to support (ahahahaha... ) Capitalism and punish you, the innocent? Oh wait, these laws are to protect you. That's why there are heavy-duty fines for driving down the road witha cell phone - or rather - FEAR induced law enforcement that if you do this MAJOR BAD THING, you will lose money you don't have. You will pay for every other IDIOT on the road. It is for our safety, right? Well, if we read the "fictional," story about the millions of accidents daily occurring from cell phone use and ignore the other stories about accidents happening for one million other reasons, then sure - it's all about the people! After all, the people asked for this bill, didn't they? This wasn't some special interest group or self-righteous politician, was it? It certainly wasn't media driven, was it?
 
Oops. I think you know the answer. It was special interest. It was media driven fear. But, let's get back to the fact that: without the use of law enforcement as enforcers through fear, stupid laws, anymore than good laws, could not be enforced. Our tax money couldn't be used without our permission. Our corporations wouldn't be shut down, or bought out, without our say-so. The police have been used to keep people out of Townhall meetings. And, in a court of law, the authorities - the same ones who get busted for rape, theft, murder, assault and every other possible crime (because they're human), are given the "preference," as conveyers of only truth.
 
Two things: First off - this HAS to stop. Conveyers of truth? Go out and do your own internet search for corruption+police. See it for yourself and then decide if you would trust them outright (also noting that police can pass lie detector tests while lying - because while on the force - they're TAUGHT to lie.. hmmm?); and secondly, when our government uses law enforcement for corruption - we are only encouraging this behavior. But, it certainly doesn't stop there. There is corruption in District Attorneys, Attorney Generals, Judges, Magistrates, Senators and the list goes on. While I would like to spend this entire blog telling you everything that they are doing that I have personally bore witness to - the point of this article was how UGLY, America is, in relationship to the rest of the world, for this reason.
 
"We're the free-est country in the world!" Really? Ever look at the laws? Ever look at the counter-cases to the Constitution - that doctrine of freedom to which you refer as the basis for this being a truly, free Republic? Ever see how many hundreds of times per day - YES - HUNDREDS OF TIMES PER DAY - the Constitution is negated for prosecutors, law enforcement and government officials?
 
"We're the fairest nation on Earth!" Oh yeah, we are SO super fair. Congress can vote for their own raises, but the rest of us have to earn it. The police are one of the biggest UNIONS in existence. When the media talks about how the AFL-CIO and other unions have caused corruption for the American worker, don't miss out on the fact that law enforcement is protected behind a union. That's why you'll read stories of cops shooting innocent, unarmed children and getting a paid - "probation." And, of course - just look at our monetary system. It's not like there's the elitist rich and the homeless poor? After all - if there was - both chose their own path, didn't they?
 
"We are the most caring Country in the world!" Sure we are. That's why, in Oregon, DHS/Child Protective Services, gets a D or F grading score, not for "failure," to protect children, but what they're doing to them - for 11 years running now! That's why there are senators petitioning the Congress to hear their plea to put a stop to the child laundering scheme of CPS (no - not people - the government), but are ignored because other Senators profit from it (no - not conspiracy - I'll post the link if you want it).
 
"We are the most powerful country in the world." Yep, and Roman Polanski sits untouched, because their comes a time in the course of human events when the rest of the world must tell this bumbling giant known as the United States to back the heck off and start trying to think with our brains, not our butts!
 
America, The Beautiful? Sorry, not anymore. I would have said so only three years ago. Of course, I was watching television and had a tendency to believe at least some of what I was seeing. I supported the difficulties our 9-1-1 and military folks faced. I understood the plight of America to help out with foreign matters where oppression was concerned. Then, I woke up. Then, I watched as the doors of a church in Texas were busted down by cops with semi-automatic weapons, hauling off screaming, crying, innocent and frightened children in a bus from good, loving families. I watched as a nation positioned hatred against another country merely to support a war movement. I wtched and understood what the military does and says to the men and women we care about. I watched as special interest groups pushed our money into the toilet, flushed it, and then blamed US for it! I watched as children went hungry to the point of dying, politicians traded off favors and officers of the law lied to "catch a 'supposedly' bad guy." I watched as District Attorneys continued to aggressively attack a young adult even after the so-called victim said: oops - it was sort of a lie - didn't happen. I watched as District Attorneys put people in prison for circumstantial, unconfirmed evidence, called it justice and destroyed their lives, their children and the world around them.
 
I watched in horror - at a weeping mother, clinging to the coffin of her newborn child, who died of neglect from a DHS appointed home, taking him from her without reason, justification or cause, lying to the courts, supported by the "system," to get away with it, profiting in the tens of thousands from Federal funds and "raises for everybody," and heard DHS blame the mother for it all. I watched the news reports of children being shot in cars, unarmed, because the cops have too much time and money.
 
I watched and I watched and I watched. .....
 
This is America? This is my home? This is where I am raising my son? What have we done? Who are we? No wonder some of these other countries hate us so bad. I never understood it - their hatred that is - until I watched.. US. And, then, I understood. Their countries commit horrible attrocities against their own people - so why should they judge us? Because - we go over there - proclaiming our all-mighty righteousness and good intent (Obama, the olympics scandal and the corruption being projected anyone?), and we vainly claim our free right to be the example for the rest of the world - and it's insulting. It's downright disgusting, when our Legislature is "famous," for their lies and deceit, yet they continue to run. Dictatorships come - and they fall. Eventually the people rebel. But, look at history. How many rebellions have happened here? Peaceful ones are met by violence in the street with armed SWAT teams, beating kids into bloody messes. No wonder we have kids beating on other kids! It's in the media - the news - and the authorities they're supposed to be modeling themselves after. But, we HIDE! We try to cover up the nastiness with "other" news.
 
Lies do not become us. We are a nation of people who live in fear. Very few dare speak the words I do, for they know they will soon find themselves where I've already been - thrown to the lions. They know that if they try to change the system by force, they'll be killed or thrown in jail. WHAT? Is that America? What about protesting? How much affect has that had? How much of an effect are the townhall meetings having? Maybe some? I said a while ago that I thought the Tea Parties were turning into a waste of time, but I hoped I was wrong, and one person said that I was.
 
Congress just appointed themselves a raise, against the peoples' will, Obama just went to support Olympics in America, against the peoples' will, General McChrystal is still without troops against the peoples' will - and the list goes on. So - was I wrong? Sadly, I don't know what the answer is. But, yes, I hope and pray, I am wrong. For how long can the fear continue? How many generations before they ask: why ARE you afraid? How long before our children can no longer abide by their parent's fears and stand up for themselves in what may be a terrible disaster of pain and suffering, all because we were too afraid now? I am going down soon. I was fighting, but now they have my child. They have threatened to harm him. I can no longer fight. I must be careful in all I say and do - and yet, I cannot stop. I cannot quit telling the truth. I cannot give up hope that making sure enough people being educated WILL SET US FREE.
 
I hope the same for you, my brothers and sisters.

Capitalism or Free Enterprise, part 1 of 2

When did we lose track? When did we suddenly decide one day that we are sheep, not people, and let those in charge blatantly lie to us? At what point did those in charge decide to start lying to us? I know I've addressed this issue before, but I have a couple more tidbits of "interesting," ideas to help this concern along... for you see, the United States Government has been misleading the people for quite some time. Through Capitalism, America has become a nation of greed and power. Through Capitalism, good people have been hurt. And, while many members of the media talk about America's right to be a 'Capitalist,' society, what they are really trying to refer to (I hope), is free enterprise. But, there's a huge distinction between a Capitalism and free enterprise, and it begins with the corruption of entire nations. Let's begin with an old, "conspiracy," that is not quite such a "conspiracy," as some people might believe:

Flouride. What's that you say? What does Flouride have to do with anything in politics and scandals? Well, I'll let you read the article for yourself. In fact, I encourage you to not just follow the links I've posted, but do your own research - at home or in a library. The sum total explanation is this: Flouride is a toxic waste product, that many scientific studies and EPA standards have validated is poisonous. In fact, one of the EPA reports I've linked to, confirms the facts I am presenting to you now. So, why is it in water? The aluminum industry is huge. In fact, it's so huge, that it has been a major, economic driving force since the post World War II era, when, for many years, the toxic dumping of toxic waste byproducts from aluminum manufacturing were legally deposited in landfills. However, around the mid-70's or so, based on the poisons found in the bloodstreams of millions, the EPA began to set landfill standards - including the refusal of dumping toxic chemicals in oceans, lakes, streams and landfills. Flouride was then a problem that one of the largest textile industries in the world had to deal with. And, thank goodness to Capitalism and money, they were able to buy their way into the water streams of every household and mouth of every person in this country and dispose of it through human ingestion.

Now, let's look at the FCC, television and commercials. You spend time watching your television, enjoying your shows about beautiful people in perfect bodies, with great teeth, a full head of hair and nice, thin waist-lines. This is quickly and FREQUENTLY interrupted by a series of commercials that do what? They tell you how IMPERFECT and UGLY you really are. They point out your bad teeth and the toothpaste you need, the Rogaine or hair coloring products you need for your head, the diet pills and excercise machines for your fat, the face creams and anti-aging products for your skin, and so on and so on. In other words, Hollywood, much like the American Dental Association (ADA), was offered a big, fat check for LYING to you. Hollywood tells you who's ugly, and who's not. Hollywood tells you what's popular and acceptable, and what's not. This marketing strategy is amongst the most corrupt and vile forms of subliminal messaging that is possible, today. Trust me, if you go to take advertising and marketing in college for four or five years, you'll get to see first hand how they mold you into working for the Capitalist markets. But, given these two examples, what has this got to do with Capitalism?

Mind you, I could have chosen from a myriad of tens of thousands of examples. However, I specifically chose two areas of our common, every-day life that we tend to take for granted. I did this, because you need understand, that Government "lies," are not limited to what takes place in "Congress." Forget Congress. The laws they have already passed, the agencies already in place and the people supporting Congress are the biggest threat to our lives. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) - an agency set up by our Government and paid for through tax-payer dollars to regulate the safety of the environment and us, has passed regulations to dump toxic waste into the drinking water and do so under the guise: it's good for you! Remember the advertisements for cigarettes long, long ago? If you have a sore throat - smoke! It REALLY works! In fact, the cigarettes you smoke work so well that they'll numb your throat through the systematic destruction of the cells, providing you long-term relief. Hey, what about the ADA? It is a government established agency designed to regulate the administration of dental services, and along with the FDA, toothpastes, mouthwashes, etc. Go look at your tube of toothpaste right now. No - really, I'll wait. Go get it and come back........ (musical interlude)........... got it? Okay - now read the back: Warning: Harmful or fatal if swallowed - contact the poison control center immediately! [Sure - yours will be a variant of this - but you get the gist]. TOOTHPASTE WILL KILL YOU? Yes. Why? Flouride (amongst one or two other chemicals also contained in some toothpastes). But, that's not really the big one - the big one is a chemical whose initials are SLS. This is an industrial grade, silicon scrubbing agent that is abrasive and designed NOT to remove the plaque from your teeth, but the enamel. Don't believe me? Go ahead - you look this one up.

The point? The point is: The government is lying. And, when the government lies, WE THE PEOPLE SUFFER. I've been saying this for a while, but wanted to point out a couple small parts of your life here: the toothpaste you HAVE to buy to whiten your teeth so you can look like the perfect man or woman from your favorite, unrealistic reality show, is filled with none other than: Toxic waste and chemicals designed to make you need the services of a dentist. Capitalism people. Capitalism is NOT free enterprise. If you'd take a moment, there is a very well written article on Capitalism that was done in 2006, before the Obama era, that clearly outlines some of the major points of Capitalism. An overtly philisophical article was written in 1996 and detailed the failure of these two processes as functional together. The truth, which you will rarely find in many on-line articles and texts out there is this: Capitalism, by its sheer nature and definition, is a political structure that when, the leaders of an economy influence the decisions of a government - it becomes Capitalism. In the case of Democracy, Capitalism is the tip of an iceberg which will eventually sink the Titanic. Capitalism not only represents a minority few, but it represents those who want money. Its selfish greed is self-destructive and will inevitably destroy itself in sheer, Marxist Socialism style when arrogance marches headfirst into the arms of destruction.

Capitalism or Free Enterprise, part 2

While there are many angles of Capitalism to discuss, for the purposes of America and this article, I'll focus on Capitalism and Democracy.

Examples of Capitalism in Democracy:

Laws that are passed that do not include the voters, the interest of the voters or the interest of the welfare of the majority. Let's take for example the laws that were lifted from pharmaceuticals permitting them to advertise on television, and within a few years, the price of prescriptions 800% and people who needed prescriptions to survive, died. What about laws that permit the poisoning of our drinking water and the sale of toothpaste to children that contains poisonous chemicals like Titanium Dioxide? What about laws that govern the prices of our food, our oil, what we can and cannot buy, and so on? The truth is - I could detail some very disturbing facts for you about how our entire political structure has been commanded for many, many years now by Capitalist leaders (ie. DuPont - the leaders in Titanium Dioxide production), whose sole goal is money. But, if you don't already know this - by the computer you sit in front of, the number of televisions in your home, the cars in your garage, the size and mortgage of your home, the name brand on the clothes you wear, the cartoon/commercially driven to purchase toys in your child's room and the slew of other, obvious facts all around you- then I'm afraid you are the one I spoke of when I first wrote this article and asked: when did we trade being people - for being sheep?

This is just not wolves in sheep’s clothing. At least the wolves eat the sheep for the reasons of survival. This would be the equivalent of the shepard selling out his own sheep and leading them to the wolves in trade for a pocket of gold and all the wool he could want, shear free! This is NOT free enterprise.

So, what is free enterprise? Free enterprise is exactly what it says: a competition market where anyone can compete against one another. This is what creates good pricing – not the government giving sole rights for ISBN licensing to Bowker, LLC., so they can charge people whatever they want and control the market. Free enterprise allows people to build a better mouse trap and offer it on an open market, not create 3 credit bureaus with all their flaws and corruption to dictate the terms of an individual’s life. In an article by Robert J. Samuelson with the Washington Post, he attributes Capitalism’s ability to survive to its diversity and America as a whole. However, I would counter this and say that he is in fact, incorrect. Capitalism has not thrived based on a system of diversity. Anyone who invests at the upper echelons of the stock market knows this – because they know that companies such as Viacom, DuPont and others, are the parent/umbrella corporations for a vast array of companies below them, and in fact, there is little diversity in our current economy. Additionally, I would support this with the every-growing siege on America by Capitalism:

If Capitalism could thrive based solely upon its diversity – then why pay off government agencies (who have a dictatorial authority over the people through the enforcement of laws vs. the threat of prison and death) - to pass laws that permit the poisoning of our water? Why develop a nation of TV-brained imbeciles who don’t recognize the harm of constantly being told how bad they are, and then buy the anti-depressant from the next commercial to get their “pill fix?” Or, perhaps this is the Diversity that Mr. Samuelson refers to – even if he doesn’t realize it. Perhaps Mr. Samuelson’s references to “entrepreneurial culture,” and “work ethic,” as Capitalism’s building blocks are truly the masquerade upon which it keeps its victims as easy targets. No – there is NO free enterprise. Free enterprise is gone. I cannot go put up a stand on a corner in the middle of town, or outside my house, and sell my vegetables.

Why not? Taxation, regulation, ordinances, fees, licensing, permits, applications, limitations, infringements upon minority groups, and a slew of other nonsensical laws that the Federal Government – a body that was designed to represent the people and defend this country – had no business passing. If this were a free enterprise, I could build a car tomorrow and sell it. You say – sure you can – go ahead. You say, just fill out the forms, pay the fees, apply for the licenses, pay for your own advertising – and you’re good to go.

Really? Are you sure about that? What about the competitive clauses that I alone may not face as a small guy – but if I were to try and build, say 10 million cars – that would forbid me that right? Need a better example? Try looking up what Walmart has not only done to small business, but the added regulations Walmart has helped “encourage” in towns across America, in Federal and State Legislation, that kill those small businesses. In fact, many of those same laws have eventually come back to bite Walmart, hard, until it exerts itself upon our political leaders and forces through laws for its own special interest and success. Again – when government crosses over into free enterprise - it is no longer free. Greece had the perfect example:

Along the row of shops in the city, anyone could bring their wares, set up shop and sell them. End of story. Nothing else to tell. Now-a-days, if you try to set up shop, you get sued or some law is passed that forbids you to go into business. It would be like me contacting Toshiba, ordering 20 million computers and laptops, and setting up an on-line company to sell those laptops direct to consumers. Now we have a lawsuit issue with Dell, buyout options and government regulations galore. Sure – I suppose you can still argue that it is free enterprise – but as Samuelson said in his article: entrepreneurial culture. And, that is what Free enterprise is. So Capitalism stands upon the shoulders of that standard. Its foundation is the abuse of free enterprise and the systematic destruction of competition through political control. Else, why would Capitalism even need a hand in the political arena?

However, when the media and many others discuss the infringement on Capitalism by the Government’s march toward socialism, they are missing the mark entirely. Capitalism is the point in which free enterprise gives way to Socialism when it gets a boost from the politicians of the day who suddenly pass laws defending companies like Amtrak, because they are also invested in that company and have to protect their own interests. In the book: Corruption, Capitalism and Democracy, from Routledge Taylor and Francis Group, they discuss how the collusion between elitist politicians and elitist financially wealthy “capitalists,” (those who believe that the economy should dictate the laws – or He who has the gold “makes” the rules), are furthering the expansion of capitalist practive and market practice at the expense of democratic practice and public values.

So: Capitalism = free enterprise taking political control of the masses for its own, selfish gain; and in Democracy = the end of freedom. Thus, Capitalism = The end of freedom. But, you’re free, aren’t you? You can decide not to watch their shows, buy their “stuff,” and be independent, can’t you? HAHAHA – go ahead and try. The rules the government puts into place requires you to subscribe to the whims of Capitalism to keep it thriving. However, the greed on top never gets enough, the elitists get too fat, and the people just get poorer until there’s no more to give. This leads to rebellion and war (The Boston Tea Party for anyone interested in an example). Welcome to Free America. You’re free to shop and spend – and they’ll tell you to – a lot. It will be all around you; your iron will shall be shattered. Your beliefs shall be made frail upon your social condition. Your fear and hatred of your fellow man shall be made manifest by the infringement not upon your person – but your “stuff,” and how much it will cost you (or in a lawsuit – how much you’ll gain).  

But, what do you take with you from all of this?

Either you’re at home now, or you’ll be going home soon. And, you’ll need gas to drive your car. You’ll believe that you need 10 cops to every 1 person just to keep you safe on your journey. You’ll buy the food at the store that they make available, poisons or not. You’ll trust the FDA, the EPA, the ADA, the AMA and any other board that’s “government,” backed, because the government is SO honest – but regardless – you have to eat.

So when was it? When did we stray off the path? When was the point of no return? I ask these questions, because if you can discover the point that we were fooled by the Shepard, you’ll be able to see how and where the wolves got in. You’ll be able to be prepared for what’s coming. After all, with the entire Country up in arms over this president, a nation on the verge of frailty and fear, and a capitalist community just waiting for the opportunity to pounce, there’s no reason to fear, is there? It’s not like the fall of the government or the march to socialism will be replaced by Capitalists, is it? It’s not like the media is dishonest at all, is it? Or maybe – just maybe – if they know we can see them coming, the capitalists will lose their supporters – the sold out and self-righteous manufacturers that produce products that harm us. And, when we cut out our tax support, when the authorities no longer have a job in such great numbers, they won’t be as apt to stand up to us. When we turn off the television, they’ll lose their support.
 
I guess only time can tell if free enterprise shall rise from the ashes ever again. Until then, now you know, when you hear the word: Capitalism, what they really mean. Good Luck!
 
(by the way - when I reference a link - that does not mean I endorse it in whole or in part, but have found at least a portion of it to be useful - just fyi)

In the land of Oz, there lived a wizard...

   And, this grand, old and wisened wizard could only be found at the Emerald City. There, deep within the guarded walls of his crystal palace, those few, brave souls who came to call upon the wizard, were met with his terrible and fiery rage that had intimidated them into submission and agreement. In fact, stories tell of a girl from a star named Kansas who agreed to commit theft from another, simply because the wizard demanded it. He wanted her, to take away someone else's strength and power, so that he could make his own, and thus, the collective's power, even greater..... And, you know the rest of the story. Of course, the information spoken of within the central chamber where the wizard resided was safeguarded, and those who entered were told never to tell of the information they learned, for it was, "secret." Starting to sound more and more familiar? Makes you yearn for that simple, farm life, where you worked hard and gave up your search for wealth and accepted your lot in life. Not really a fairy tale ending either way you look at it.
 
Now, some of you... most of you... if any of you are out there.. lol... may take serious offense to what I'm about to write. In fact, I warn you now - don't judge till you reach the end - for I have another tale to weave that will offend. You see, there once was a young Senator named Barrack Obama, who was well off, well provided for and lacked for nothing. He knew he had the backing to overcome the odds, but also he knew, that the government was corrupted. He knew the politicians could be bought off, the police force acted with prejudice and without a sense of justice and that the law had so many holes in it, that truth leaked right out onto the floor every time you tried to use it. So, he decided one day to follow his dream. It wasn't to be a President, it was to make a change. He wanted to fix everything. But, he knew, as President, he was going to have limitations. For you see, in the land where young Obama resided, the President was to be a symbol for the people, but had become a patsy for Congressional and special interest. So, he began his career by appointing Czars - heads of departments, staffs and operations, who were above Congress. The only people they had to answer to was: Obama himself.
 
Should he make an office and leave it to Congress to run? How had Congress fared over the last Century or two? No, he had to change the rules - even his own rules - to supercede their authority. Obama knew that while the FBI will investigate a U.S. Soldier's background to the day of their birth, confirming where they lived and with whom they communicated in order to prevent anti-American sympathizers from gaining power (based solely upon their associations growing up), he would have to reposition himself and hide his past contacts the best he could. After all, if the FBI was that strict against top secret military personnel, wouldn't they be even stricter against him? So, Barrack fired the head Inspector General and hired a new one, who only answered to him. But, Barrack not only mistrusted Congress, he didn't trust the people. He knew they could be lead like sheep and be dangerous to his goals. So, he began drawing up bills for Congress to pass, that he would try to force through without having them read, so that the people didn't rebel.
 
Understand, Obama wanted change. He wanted to make things better. Rather than health care as it is now, he wanted the extreme opposite - because he had learned that "baby," steps, would get him nowhere. Rather than run out of money, he decided to authorize mass spending of money. And, there were problems in the land of Oz. When Jo the Plumber came to the Emerald City Gates, the gatekeeper wouldn't let him in. And, because Obama couldn't trust anyone, and was so afraid of trusting his own Government or turning to people for votes, that soon he was passing laws without the people - and without Congress. He was so afraid of his own Government, that he began he began passing votes without them and positioning people into power who would support his goals.
 
And, just maybe- Obama's not trying to destroy America. You see, this is a fairy tale ONLY because: We don't know what Obama's really thinking. But, then I stepped back and looked in again, and I saw exactly what I just wrote. Obama wants change - but Congress - good luck. Obama wants reform, but trying to get things passed by the people - heck - they voted for him, how could he trust ANY of them?! His only choice to save us is to do it his way, and that means over-riding the government and the people. The only problem, where Little Red Riding Hood's grandmother told her daughter what path to take through the forest, it seems that Obama's willing to follow one that has warning signs posted all over it.
 
Of course, I'm not saying this is what's "really," happening. I'm just playing Devil's Advocate here, and giving you a view into another, possible alternate to consider. Because, if we want change, what would you have Obama do, trust Congress to get it done? Would you have him rely on the legal system as it's designed now? Would you have him put it to vote? What course of action do you want him, to take? On the other hand, we mustn't forget what Mr. Bush Jr. told us: Once Obama was in the Whitehouse, regardless of whatever platforms he stood upon or principals he proclaimed, he would know what the President knew; the terrible secrets of "what's coming," that we, the people, don't know, and he would have to act upon it. And, what have we seen? We've watched Obama even go against his own party's desires with this health care bill now. What possible future could he have been shown - what truth could have been revealed to him, that he would do this? What fear of of his own government could give him cause to act as he is now? So - ask yourself - is it really a "totalitarian," attitude that he has, or is he really, "afraid?"
 
Oh well, enough of our fairy tale for today. Let's get back to reality now. What's on today's agenda - a four thousand page health care bill? Now THAT'S a fairy tale.....

Bend Parks and Rec calling for more cops.. oh boy...

Here we go again - more cops in Bend. If it wasn't bad enough the ratio of police is 1 to every 800 people, in our SMALL town (not counting sheriffs, state and federal officers...) - now they're in our parks. Wait... they were in our parks before (anyone else noticed the 'bike' cops?)! So - this IS about money. Not only will we be paying for the cops through our tax money - but the check that the Parks and Rec District write the cops will come from... wait... our TAX Money!! See how that works? And, let me offer the TRUTH for those of you who watched this report on television - it is NOT that the Parks and Rec director believes people will 'respect' the cops more than they will Bennett - it's that they will 'FEAR' the cops more than they do Bennett. Because, in truth, not one person can say that when they see a cop, they don't automatically have some level of fear or concern - even if that concern is to jutify being less concerned because they're not, doing anything wrong.... Either way - it's fear mongering - and this is AMERICA - NOT COMMUNIST CHINA!!

Here it comes - caching - more money out of our pockets for police. More money for the police and the courts through tickets for DOG owners. Sure - no one wants to see a dog bite someone - but that's not what this is about. How many 'dog attacks' from 'unleashed' dogs have we had in the parks (say, vs. homes or ANYWHERE else)? Can you name ONE? How about TWO? Maybe a few? Try looking it up and see that they don't exist. We're so busy handing off accountabilty and responsibility to the authorities - the same ones who shoot unarmed, innocent kids without remand, prevent sons from saying goodbye to their dying mothers in the hospital out of sheer pride and inhumane selfishness and most recently - as of recent headlines - are put on probation/let go for frauding the public, or hurting innocent people. We NEED to begin taking accountability and responsibility for OURSELVES - and that is the type of America that Bennett represents!

Maybe it's time we say: NO. No to the overpriced police department where the current budget is over $35 MILLION, third only to water and wastewater services as far as municipal costs go!! Maybe if the City were to invest even a lousy $3 million - of that $35 million - into the current, $13 million community development fund and build parks where leashes were offered for free, dog parks were made more convenient for their owners or do something FOR the citizens of Bend who are FOOTING THIS BILL, then we wouldn't need so many cops (starting to sound like AIG - or maybe - Marxist Communism?)! Have you been to the courthouse lately? Near 100 NEW names EVERY DAY! I don't know about your math, but in a town with 76,000 people - that is more than HALF of the people of Bend and a THIRD of the entire County's population in a year's time?? WHAT is going on?? We have park directors who want to instill fear, raise our expenses during difficult, economic times - and for what? To patrol the parks for potential, future risks? Because, if a dog hasn't attacked or hurt someone - then the leash law is nothing more than a 'predictive' measurement in which we're going to assume EVERY dog and their owner is GUILTY, and force them to prove their innocence later on. That is NOT AMERICAN. INNOCENT first - then - guilty. And, you ask, what if it was me who got hurt or a family member by the dog? Well, if you're asking that question - then YOU do not have the same faith and trust in God that I do, that believes in our ability to love and forgive, and at that point, relies on the law to come in and fix the situation so no one else, gets hurt. And - I'd die in a heartbeat, without a second thought, for my son, if the choice had to be made.

I say NO! If Bennet makes $60k of that $100k budgeted - and there's even an additional $25k in expenses - that's $15k left over for her to carry around dog leashes - give people their GOD GIVEN right to make a choice and not FORCE things upon them, ask people to be respectful, and then, if need be - CALL IN the cops when people are in violation. Because... what do you think they do now? Why do you think she carries around the walkie talkie? Maybe if Bend PD didn't require 15 officers on the scene to get a cat out of a tree - they'd be able to respond to her calls!! And, if we DON'T stop this - you know as well as I do - that the ENTIRE $100k check will go to the Bend PD, whether they're there - or not! Start making a difference people - If you love this town even HALF as much as I do - you'll demand the Parks and Rec PRESERVES our happiness and freedom and STOP them from turning the parks into a place of fear mongering!!

How the media drives us with lies - pt1

Sure, I know what you're thinking - "Hey, I came here to learn about the truth of the government, not to hear conspiracy theories about the media!" But, what if.... I mean.... just - "what if" - a good portion of the government's lies and corruption include driving the media and leading us down the primrose path? Well, I mean - that's just insane - right? The media never lies. They never make mistakes. They're ALWAYS fair and balanced, aren't they?

Okay, fine, let's dispense with the idiotic mentality that we don't know that this is happening and get down to brass tacks, shall we? The commercial came on from the government sponsored 'protecting kids' campaign against 'online dangers.' Let me first repeat for you EXACTLY, ver batim, what the commercial states:

"You try to protect them. You want to keep them safe. You monitor what they watch. You set filters to control their content. But, are they really safe? ....... But, the truth is, you can't control your kids' exposure to sex, but you can control how they behave."

For those who MISSED it - let me point out the MAJOR areas of concern:

1. You - the parent, the role model, the guardian, the protector, the guidance counselor, the loved one, the creator, the provider - YOU - have NO control at all - YOU CAN NOT control YOUR CHILDS exposure to SEX because YOU can't stop the media - the ones broadcasting this commercial - from putting sex in front of them. YOU can't stop the abuse of the internet where idiots whose evolutionary basis for sex starts and stops at monkeys will post sex. YOU can't stop the kids at school from talking about it. YOU can't stop your own child's self-driven interest in it (aka their evolutionary development as you are NOT God).

2. But, you can control their behavior.

WHAT? Did I, um, miss something? Let me try this one on you: "Hey little Joey, I want you to say yes and no, sir and ma'am, thank you and please, never talk out of turn, always do your homework, do your chores, listen to every word I say, do as I say not as I do and behave...... But, what happens if they don't? Didn't the TV tell you that you could "control" their behavior? Oh, that's right - because the media is GOING to BLAST sex ALL OVER EVERY show they watch, every commercial they hear and do it so repeatedly that its effectiveness rivals hypnotherapy and subliminal messaging - you CAN'T control them. So, um, why... did the TV... tell me I could?

Because, in the face of Congressional laws coming out such as the "forced" community service, Congress wants to empower you to do as they say. You see - THEY CONTROL YOU. YOU - do not even control yourself. They DON'T need your vote. They DON'T need your approval. What they want - is your OBEDIENCE. But, you argue and say - "no, I'm NOT an idiot, I'm NOT your slave, this is a FREE country and I EXPECT the DEMOCRATIC process to allow me to put in my vote."

Now there's conflict. A resolution is needed. Congress says, "Well, we 'do' represent the desires of the people and we 'should' do what they want, but - naaaahhhhh - why do that? Let's scare them, weaken them, take away their power, screw with their heads - and when they're helpless - let's hit 'em below the belt!" You see, for those of you without children, let me 'splain.... no, wait, let me sum up (what movie? c'mon... you know which one 80's generation.. hahahaha):

We love our kids. We live in fear because we KNOW there are bad people out there, the police and court systems are inneffective and we don't want them hurt. Why? WE WENT THROUGH IT. The parents who are ignorant of what their kids are doing - didn't go through the hardships. WE KNOW. We do NOT want them to grow up. We want something DIFFERENT for them. We want a life of happiness and joy and one that doesn't involve strife and heartache. But, that's not always possible. We know that. And, we know that the media is just getting worse - and worse - and worse. I took my son to see a PG movie - and boy oh boy - what they get away with in PG movies is FAR more than I EVER wanted him to see. Learned my lesson.... And, what does the government do? They ENCOURAGE sex in media. The FCC throws a temper tantrum because Janet Jackson had a 'portion' of her COVERED boob pop out during the super bowl half-time because 'families' were watching - but.... it's okay to them that many of today's cartoons include kissing, sexual scenes, sexual jokes and the music videos that ALL the kids are watching include 'pimpin' the ho's' and the degraded value of idols such as Spears and Lohan.

Right, makes a TON of sense, right? I mean, why not let the SOURCES of the MAJORITY of children's media input include bare butts, skimpy outfits, pimped out sluts, superficial make-up jobs to attract sex, but SLAM down those FAMILY values because... oops... it happened at the Super Bowl in front of everyone? The answer's simple - mom and dad saw. They saw what the FCC was putting in front of their children. Anyone watching this season of South Park knows EXACTLY what I'm talking about. Only when mom and dad become aware does the FCC lay the SMACK down on anyone.

How the media drives us with lies - pt2

 (continued on from "How the media drives us with lies - pt. 1) -
 
Let's examine this in some detail, shall we? Quiznos Subs - their commercial "Dave, put it in me," as the guy looks down at his crotch and says, "Nuh-uh, I burn." Um, maybe in ANY other context, I might have laughed. Sure, I've got the 13 year old mentality that finds fart and sex jokes funny - I'm a guy - EVERY guy (even those who pretend otherwise) - has this mentality by nature. But, it wasn't. Why? For two reasons -
1. IT IS A SUBWAY SANDWHICH COMMERCIAL BROADCAST ON CARTOON NETWORK - THIS is in front of OUR children??? Dammit! My son's not so stupid to have caught the theme of it. They weren't even subtle about it! Sex and subway sandwhiches... gosh.... sex hasn't PERMEATED EVERY SINGLE FACET of hollywood, has it? But - the truth is - not even that was what REALLY peeved me -
2. The OVEN WAS A DUDE. They did NOT use a female voice for the sticking in of the 'torpedo,' sub, into its REAR entry. For anyone who missed it - go look it up yourself, 'cause I'm not gonna encourage it.
 
Is that to say that the subtelty of the absolutely GAY reference was wrong because it was a 'gay' reference? No. In fact, I'm not even sure that the company advertising for Quiznos thought it through. Hell - they STARTED with DEAD hamsters, modifying an existing internet song for their advertising career. What I am peeved about, is that THIS is the VERY issue I FIRST started with - the MEDIA - the people BROADCASTING THIS COMMERCIAL - are the SAME ONES - that told us we 'love our children, and because we do, if we WANT to be GOOD parents, we'll try to keep them away from sexual themes - but..... too bad, we can't.' And, why not? BECAUSE HERE IT IS - on the VERY channel my son watches, right in front of him. Not only is the sexual theme blatant, but the subtle theme is grotesquely exaggerated.
 
Now, in contrast, I absolutely LOVE the Burger King mini-burger commercial because the idea of a horde of hot, playboy-type chicks crowding around me, giving me full attention is actually kind of - cool. Of course, because I'm NOT an idiot and I know that no matter HOW many times I unwrap those mini burgers, women aren't going to flood around me - I try to find the 'subtle' hint - since SEX is the NON-subtle hint. And, survey says: Even overweight, fast-food eating, can't hook up with playboy models because they're not rich and sexy guys can get the rich chicks - they just gotta do what the commercial says. So - what does that do for kids? It LOWERS their standards. And, what's the problem? (and I quote) "You can't control your kids' exposure to sex." Well, not only that - but I am now faced with their lowered standards of what's beautiful, what the easy road promises (but in truth can never produce), and I, the parent - become the liar. SO HOW IS IT I CAN "CONTROL" their behavior?
 
Well - next comes the 'Osbournes' variety hour. No, that's not going to be the full representation of the degraded mentality and unevolved state of humanity, is it? Then what else? Another reality show that relies on the completely 'unrealistic' to survive? Bill Cosby's show in the 80's is considered one of the defining elements of the current troubled condition of the America Family based on media input:
 
The quick fix doesn't work.
 
Mom and dad fight, and in 30 minutes, are they back, kissing and everything is okay? Nope. Billy gets in trouble in school and in 30 minutes is it fixed? Nope. Hell - even today on shows like 'House' (albeit I LOVE that show and will otherwise speak no wrong of it): the people who lived in a way that screwed themselves up, at the end of 1 hour - everything's better. Can the kid's go out, get pregnant and do the same? Nope. Media REALLY took us away from the point of morality. And how, why? Here's something I LOVE - HULU!! I give these guys MAJOR props.
 
What do they offer? Cerebral, gelatinisizing shows.
Can you control them? Nahh... what are you gonna do, shut off your TV AND your computer?
What is their goal? An evil plot to destroy the world.
 
That's it. THAT'S IT! Right there - in black and white. It's not Quiznos or BK's openly sexual content that tries not to say the word, "sex," - it ACTUALLY says what they want. TV rots your brain. TV over the Internet rots your brain. And, what would be the eventual goal? World destruction. Simple. To the point. Heck, if our Government was THIS honest - we'd at least ALL be in a better place!! If we were this honest with ourselves - we'd be in a better place. "Hey, I'd say it's nice to see you today, Bill, but that would just be some empty form of flattery based on socially accepted norms, when in fact, I actually hate the way you treat your family, think your arrogant and stuck up and wish I never saw you."
 
But, will we do that? Nope. Why? FEAR. Yes, I actually sit up at night and wonder if Hulu IS really made up of aliens destroying us. Why? Because - that is WHAT they are broadcasting BECAUSE they KNOW we are SO far down the rabbit hole that we can no longer distinguish reality from fiction. We are the sheep that went to the other side, realized the grass WASN'T greener, and are now wandering around aimlessly. We are a greedy, selfish, "thing"-driven population. We DON'T want the truth. If it's given to us, we REJECT it. And, the point of ALL of this?
 
The government knows this. They feed us what they want us to hear. Obama received 100,000 questions to answer on-line? C'mon - let's NOT be stupid. They filtered out 100 MILLION to only 100,000. And, the majority were about legalizing pot? Yeah - SURE they were. The MAJORITY were questioning his budget policies. And, what did he answer?
 
Four. Four out of 100,000 (out of 100 million). Four questions based on "how will you help lower my tuition?" That is CRAP. Sorry for the foul language - but the truth is - his 'people' chose questions about 'children' to gain public support. It was a media campaign to get the public to like him because 'he cares about the kiddies.'
 
Yeah - but he can't stop their exposure to sex, right? Nope - but he can tell you that you can control their behavior, right? Sure - so long as Congress has a SLEW of pre-determined bills sitting on their desks that they will pass, one at a time, slowly, that will place GREATER control on us. And, they KNOW better than to start with the adults. While the majority of America's made up of the gooey-mush brained television watchers, there are enough people (aka Glenn Beck) who will talk about the truth and raise Cain. So, let's do what the Nazi's did - go after the kids. The kids are easy targets. FORCE parents to believe they're in control - create a RIFT between the kids and the parents - and you have a nation of children willing to turn in their OWN parents to the Nazi regime...
 
Sound stupid? Maybe... in fact... I HOPE and PRAY that you're right and I'm wrong. Because, folks, it's happened before - and it WILL happen again.
That which is, was once before, and that which will come, already has been. Ecclesiastes.

The trouble with "special" advocacy groups

Is it wrong to advocate for change? Of course it's not! The whole point of free will is that when people are fully educated on a subject (mind you - I'm not talking about the majority of America, but those few who listen to ALL the issues and form their OWN opinions), they can contribute positively toward changes that will help us move toward a better tomorrow. This kind of change involves the whole of humanity, the majority of people - not the special interest groups. Why?
 
Special interest groups serve a 'small' portion of society. They represent a 'small,' portion of society, and their knowledge usually starts and stops there. They are motivated by emotion, not logic. They are out to make a change with the immediate need for self gratification. And, therein lies the trouble..... that which distinguishes us from primates is:
 
Delayed gratification.
 
You see, monkeys operate on primal instincts - aka - pure emotion. If they need food, they go eat. But, maybe, that means that if the monkey next to them has food, they'll just take it. This obviously leads to conflict and thus, we have a clear separator between homo sapien erectus and .... the monkey. The justice system tends to be a slow, poorly oiled and often corrupted machine - on BOTH sides of the fence. This often drives D.A.'s and law enforcement to resort to 'shoot first and ask questions later' style tactics that result in innocent people being injured, for no good or apparent reason. But, there are oft times small groups of people, like those at NoBAC.org, who feel they have been personally harmed through the tragic death or injury of a loved one or friend, and in their immediate need to 'rectify' that pain and undo it, they don't want to rely on the justice system, the law, or even God, they let their emotions get the better of them, and they turn outward, exercising their power through money, law enforcement and politics to push through their 'immediate' gratification.
 
Oh sure, you can go on the website and read the horror stories about how drunk drivers destroyed the lives of innocent men, women and children. And, it will most certainly pull on your heart strings (for those who might actually read this website - refer to my previous post on the D.A. using this same tactic in court rooms instead of facts and evidence). You will feel the same anger, hurt and frustration they do. You will MOST certainly be driven to the emotion of fear. And, folks - that is one of THE most POWERFUL emotions, standing side-by-side, with love.
 
You see, the website's not there because they care about the people they love. The website's there because they are afraid, and they want you to be afraid, too. It may look at first like it's filled with love through 'poetry' and the heart-wrenching tears of those who have lost, but the truth is this: if someone's dead, they're dead. We most certainly don't want to see anyone else suffer, but revenge, hatred, anger - is THAT what your loved one wanted you to go through? Did the person you care about want their death to drive you to fear and hatred? I know that if I lost my own child (Heaven forbid..as it would probably kill me), I would most certainly share many of those same emotions because I'm human. But, it's also my humanity that would say: I have to trust in God. Through God, He will affect the laws that will one day bring about an equality of justice. I will not HATE the person that wrongs my son or myself. I will defend him with my life. I will live for him - I will lay down my life for him. But, what justice would I do my son if I acted in anger and vengeance - ignorant of my human abilty to delay gratification? For, if I did this thing - I would be no different than the drunk driver who, under their immediate need for gratification drank without thought of the consequence. I would have turned into the very thing that killed him, and his death would mean nothing.
 
So, how does this relate to noBAC.org? It's this: they want the BAC contents to not be scaled based on level of intoxication, but have ANY reading count. ANY reading. Did you know, or were you aware, that more than 50% of you, right now, out there in America, will show up at least at a .01%? Your body naturally produces ethanol molecules, and the error rates in the intoxilyzer machines are so high, that the majority of states in the union won't even use them, and those that do, are constantly having to get rid of their 'older' series models and upgrade because of the constantly erroneous readings!! Did you know that if you have acid reflux/gerds, you WILL... not can... you WILL show up at an added several point increase? If you have hypoglycemia or diabetes, in states that require IID's (interlock ignition devices), you don't even have to use them because they know for a FACT that your disorder will cause an unusually high reading!!
 
What does this mean? Should we ignore drunk driving? No. There are FAR better ways to handle the matter (and I've posted it in previous articles - so I'll let you take the time to read). But, let's say a family slams into you, their son dies and you're given a BAC. Guess what? If you had gerd's, you know the fear, pain and emotions you're going through has more likely than not, set it off - and if noBAC were to get their way, you would be charged with drunk driving. If you're a painter, on your way home from work, and you get into a car accident - EVEN IF IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT - you will be charged with drunk driving (as the majority of all paint has high enough levels of ethanol molecules to cause a false reading). And, it's PROVEN, that if you smoke, or EAT certain types of BREAD - you'll get a reading on the BAC and blammo - straight to prison, don't pass go, don't collect $200, and have YOUR life, your CHILD'S life and YOUR family's life - destroyed.
 
But, hey - that's okay. You see, the people... rather monkeys... at noBAC are hungry. And, they're willing to deprive YOU to fulfill their immediate need. Maybe you WERE guilty - and you DID drink and drive - but what right has any group, who simply wants their banana, to hurt innocents in the quest to get to you? Do you see how logic is lost in this? Do you see how emotion has driven people down the wrong path? The punishments for drunk driving are already so severe, that if you haven't witnessed it yet, I can most assuredly give you horror stories that will wrench your stomach. But, it doesn't stop drunk driving, sad to say. The cops are profiting from it big time. And, what's worse, as I've posted in a previous article that the solution comes from taking the money AWAY from law enforcement and put towards actually FIXING the problem, there are a multitude of officers in Oregon, including one whom I happen to personally know is corrupt and a liar, supporting the noBAC move. This will most assuredly convince Congress... to see their proud and noble men and women of law enforcement supporting the bill.
 
But, we know why they are, don't we? What happens to their budget if suddenly, EVERY stop they make can turn into a DUII? Their cash levels go through the ROOF! What? You think they WANT people to stop drinking? HAHAHAHAHA - obviously - you haven't read the other articles on here... but I'll digress for now. No, they support this special rights group, along with the department of justice, because NONE of them care about justice. The monkeys at the bottom want their bananas, and so do the monkeys up high. The bottom monkeys are looking for punishment of everyone so they can feel justified. The monkeys on top are looking for gold so they can improve their bottom line.
 
What's the REAL danger? It's not just instant gratification - no - rather, it's a resort back to a legal system we fled away from. Do you know why "beyond a reasonable doubt" was REALLY put into our justice system? The Salem witch trials. go read on it. The most infamous case was a husband, who, in a fit of jealousy, accused his wife of being a witch. She begged and pleaded to him in the courtroom to tell the people the truth, and the courts relied on him ENTIRELY for the answer (of course, the original bible thumpers of this country forgetting that Christ said that where there are not 2 or 3 witnesses, let no person stand accused). He said she was, just to fulfill his anger. And, she died.
 
But, that's NOT the kicker - amazingly enough. Plenty of people died that way...
 
The husband, by helping with enforcing laws that supported 'instant gratification,' soon found himself at the accusing end of being a witch. And, after a long, drawn out court battle, was crushed to death, slowly, beneath a door, being covered by rocks, his bones slowly cracking, his muscles ripping, his pulse pounding and screaming in pain until he died. (Salem claims that to this day, the Sheriff's of the town are haunted by this man... hee hee).
 
So, what's the REAL problem? It's that the people at noBAC, just like the people at MADD, will soon find themselves at the other end of the very same law enforcement that was supporting their cause. Hmm.... did noBAC learn ANYTHING from MADD? Nope. Instead, they forget their humanity and act upon their primal - and they will suffer. But, not before the innocent masses before them suffer. If one small group, with a specialized interest in their OWN, personal agendas, not the well-being of the masses, can push through laws, then we end up with some very, serious trouble.
 
Anyone remember the group trying to throw out the pledge of allegiance from classrooms?
What about the row v wade group?
What about the anti Parental Alienation Awareness Day group?
What about capitalists who have drug this country into the dirt, pushing their own interests through?
People - what about the laws like the Adam Walsh Act or the Patriot Act that the government is now having to reconsider, having acted in haste, and having seen the repercussions of their actions?
 
It's not a mystery that this type of thing should not be allowed. But, it's incredibly horrifying, that it's happening today...

The corruption of the Oregon District Attorney’s Office (pt 1)

(note: this is the first part in a series of articles examining the blatant abuse of power and authority by the Oregon, District Attorney’s Office)
Let us examine, shall we, the problems facing this so-called "State" of the Union, otherwise known as "Oregon," as it relates to the judicial and legal abuse by those whom we pay out of OUR tax monies. Let us examine a blatant LIE and ABUSE of power with proof, examples and facts:

State of Oregon
District Attorneys Mission Statement

The mission of the Oregon District Attorney is to uphold the United States Constitution and the Constitution and laws of the State of Oregon, to preserve the safety of the public, to protect the rights of crime victims and to pursue justice for all citizens with skill, honor and integrity.

(
excerpt from http://www.odaa.state.or.us/mission.htm)

Excerpts from The Constitution of The United States of America, as quoted by the District Attorney's office, to be the FIRST doctrine that they exist to uphold:

Preamble (note - thanks to Steve Mount at http://www.usconstitution.net/const.html for the following, complete list):

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

  • Rewritten into laymen's terms: The American people, not its legislature, government, elected officials, law enforcement or other such members, but the people who work and live in this Country, as legal citizens, represented by the protecting Umbrella of our elected officials, in order to keep everything equaland fair for ourselves and our children, keep a general peace amongst us, avoid falling into the unscrupulous practices of the European countries we fled from by regulating the control and authority of the government, (NOT, the people), UNDER [us] the people, do hereby decree that we DEMAND the following rights:

Pretty straight forward. Not much to say. It's written clearly, in a way, that while it does contain elements that dictate the rights of the people, only insomuch as it regulates our involvement in matters so as to avoid false witness and punishment, the majority of its meaning lies within regulation of the government and their activities.


Amendment 4 - Search and Seizure. (Ratified 12/15/1791.)
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
=========================================================================================
The search and seizure provisions of the Fourth Amendment are all about privacy. To honor this freedom, the Fourth Amendment protects against "unreasonable" searches and seizures by state or federal law enforcement authorities.

The flip side is that the Fourth Amendment does permit searches and seizures that are considered reasonable. In practice, this means that the police may override your privacy concerns and conduct a search of your home, barn, car, boat, office, personal or business documents, bank account records, trash barrel, or whatever, if:
  • the police have probable cause to believe they can find evidence that you committed a crime, and a judge issues a search warrant, or
  • the particular circumstances justify the search without a warrant first being issued.

The Fourth Amendment applies to a search only if a person has a "legitimate expectation of privacy" in the place or thing searched. If not, the Fourth Amendment offers no protection because there are, by definition, no privacy issues. This is not, by its base meaning, a terrible thing by any stretch of the imagination. Courts use a two-part test (fashioned by the U.S. Supreme Court) to determine whether, at the time of the search, a defendant had a legitimate expectation of privacy in the place or things searched:

Did the person actually expect some degree of privacy?
Is the person's expectation objectively reasonable -- that is, one that society is willing to recognize?

The examples to consider are: A bathroom is a private place, but the front seat of your car - is not? I'm not sure about you - but the reason I have LOCKS on my car door, is because I don't consider the contents of my car to be "Public," and I'm sure that the reason that people who "steal" the contents of my car, are guilty because it is theft. How are the authorities exempt from this? Worse - private security guards, like those in shopping malls, have NO privacy requirements on them at all. The contents of your UNDERWEAR are free for them to examine!! So - let's examine the law:

Protection of privacy against unreasonable search or seizures. Hmm... does the law say... protection ONLY from law enforcement? Nope. In fact, there is NO identification of whom may violate this right. In fact, the only identification of anyone, is only that those who violate this right MUST have done so under oath or affirmation in a Court of Law.

If, upon review, a court finds that an unreasonable search occurred, any evidence seized as a result of the search cannot be used as direct evidence against the defendant in a criminal prosecution, state or federal. This rule, established by the U.S. Supreme Court in 1961, has come to be known as the "exclusionary rule." To this day, many commentators criticize it on the ground that it unfairly "lets the criminal go free because the constable has erred." But the rule's supporters argue that excluding illegally seized evidence is necessary to deter police from conducting illegal searches. According to this deterrence argument, the police are NOT SUPPOSED TO conduct improper searches if the resulting evidence can't be used to convict the defendant.

But, do they?

In the Ninth Circuit Blog, are "developments" as they pertain to Search and Seizure law. Developments... developments... ??? Hmm... does that mean... changes? Alterations to the United States Constitution as it is written? Why, yes - it does. Presedence set in Court rooms overrides the Constitution. So - just how is the District Attorney's office upholding the standards set by the UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION, when, in fact, they are ARGUING, to override it?

There are two main elements to consider here:

·         The first, is that the matter of unreasonable search and seizure was brought into question before the court. What does this mean?

o    This means - that law enforcement, DID, in fact, commit the act of an illegal search and seizure. They did NOT abide by the base standard set by the US Constitution. That law enforcement, in Oregon, has repeatedly, ABUSED their position, violating the rights of Oregon State's citizens, in their so-called, pursuit of justice.

·         The second is the matter of the District Attorney's Office. Did they, in fact, try to uphold the Constitution of the US?

o    The answer is simply, no. They used the excuse, that in their "mission," they are there to protect the safety of the public, and in doing so, they have argued for the right of an Officer of the law to have violated an individual's right to privacy.

Wait a second.... Doesn't that mean that they did NOT uphold the first doctrine that they have sworn to protect? Doesn't that mean that they have argued "probable cause," and "reasonable right to privacy and expectation," as it would fit THEIR perspective, not the perspective of the individual's CONSTITUTIONALLY protected right? Why... YES! YES it does.

So - the first question answered:

Does the Oregon District Attorney's Office uphold the standard, most base principal of the Fourth Amendment of the Constitution?

No, they do not. They try to circumvent it, abuse it, argue it, debate it and tear it apart, when private citizens choose to exercise their Constitutional rights. This is CLEARLY, a violation of the Constitution, and of the People, that in order to secure the blessing of Liberty, have fought for their privacy, and many times lost, because the agency - not elected - but paid for by and through our hard-earned wages, has chosen to ignore the first doctrine of their "mission."

(as a brief side-note, you may be asking: where are all my “examples,” or “proof?” If you’re asking this, then you haven’t followed the web links offered in here. I could list the thousands of cases for you, but that really wouldn’t be a beneficial use of space, now would it? Rather – I will reference the links. In fact – I won’t even waste the time – for the most part – citing anything specific, because that might be thought to suggest that the references are isolated. My purpose here is not to pick and choose isolated events, but, in the totality of circumstances, present to you, the reader, the overall picture. For, therein lies the fear. Therein lies the concern – that these events are NOT isolated, and these violations continue on, unchecked and unhindered and our freedoms, are quickly being lost). P.S. - sorry for grammar issues, no time for family to review it for me before posting....

The corruption of the Oregon District Attorney’s Office (pt 2)

In this second installment of our examination into the practices of the Oregon District Attorney’s Office, we continue on from where we left off, looking only at specific Amendments to the U.S. Constitution. But, make no mistake, the violations I speak of go way beyond that. I am merely pointing out the largest majority of violations of our rights, by the D.A.’s office – specifically – in contradiction to their claims.

State of Oregon
District Attorneys Mission Statement

The mission of the Oregon District Attorney is to uphold the United States Constitution and the Constitution and laws of the State of Oregon, to preserve the safety of the public, to protect the rights of crime victims and to pursue justice for all citizens with skill, honor and integrity.

(
excerpt from http://www.odaa.state.or.us/mission.htm)


Excerpts from The Constitution of The United States of America, as quoted by the District Attorney's office, to be the FIRST doctrine that they exist to uphold:

(note - thanks to Steve Mount at http://www.usconstitution.net/const.html for the Constitutional references):

Amendment 5 - Trial and Punishment, Compensation for Takings. (Ratified 12/15/1791.)

No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.

Let us examine the role of a Grand Jury:

The first instance of a grand jury can be traced back to the Assize of Clarendon, an 1166 act of Henry II of England. In fact, Henry's chief contribution to the development of the English monarchy was to increase the jurisdiction of the royal courts at the expense of the feudal courts. Itinerant justices on regular circuits were sent out once each year to enforce the "King's Peace." To make this system of royal criminal justice more effective, Henry employed the method of inquest used by William the Conqueror in the Domesday Book. In each shire a body of important men were sworn (jure) to report to the sheriff all crimes committed since the last session of the circuit court. Thus originated the modern grand jury that presents information for an indictment. The grand jury was later recognized by King John in the Magna Carta in 1215 on demand of the nobility. (are we recalling the first post, in which I clearly explained that part of the Constitution’s purpose was to no longer follow European traditions?)

Early in U.S. history, the grand jury served to screen out incompetent or malicious prosecutions. The advent of official public prosecutors in the later decades of the 19th century largely displaced private prosecutions, but also led to their capturing grand juries and using them in ways for which they were not originally intended. But, is the practice of a Grand Jury today, still at as much risk for corruption as they were back then? Grand juries are today virtually unknown outside the United States. England abandoned grand juries in 1933 and instead uses a committal procedure, as do all Australian jurisdictions. New Zealand abolished them in 1961 and Canada in the 1970’s.

In fact, only HALF of the States in our Union use Grand Juries. Yes – HALF. What does that mean? That means, that the U.S. is NOT using the fair and equal standard across the Country, meant to Form a MORE PERFECT UNION, as the justice system has slowly come to realize the corrupt and unconstitutional nature of grand juries. – Slowly – As it is, the “other” half of the U.S. relies upon preliminary hearings in which Judges are allowed to be presented with ALL of the evidence, from BOTH sides – to ensure fairness and accuracy of the issues. Where Grand Juries do exist, such as it is in Oregon – the one sided argument – from Law enforcement AND the DISTRICT ATTORNEY’S office (the ever-scrupulous bastions of fairness and hope.. right?), before dragging you into Court – and sometimes – JAILING you – without your even knowing that ANYTHING was going on!!

A grand jury is meant to be part of the system of checks and balances, preventing a case from going to trial on a prosecutor's bare word. A prosecutor must convince the grand jury, as an impartial panel of ordinary citizens that there exists reasonable suspicion, probable cause, or a prima facie case that a crime has been committed. The grand jury can compel witnesses to testify before them. Unlike the trial itself, the grand jury's proceedings are secret; the defendant and his or her counsel are generally not present for other witnesses' testimony. (a special thanks to Wikipedia, for this information – and references YOU can follow up on to find more arguments defining the unconstituionality of the Grand Jury process).

I won’t even waste the time in this argument to discuss the Double Jeopardy clause, except to say this: the TENS OF THOUSANDS of arguments, in our Judicial system against this practice, is reminiscent of what I said in regards to the Fourth Amendment violations by the District Attorneys- they are NOT upholding the principals of the Constitution as they claim – but are fighting them to their own benefit (see Findlaw for even more, detailed explanations).

''It is now the settled doctrine of this Court that the Due Process Clause embodies a system of rights based on moral principles so deeply imbedded in the traditions and feelings of our people as to be deemed fundamental to a civilized society as conceived by our whole history. Due Process is that which comports with the deepest notions of what is fair and right and just.'' (Justice Frankfurter)

Standing by itself, the phrase ''due process'' would seem to refer solely and simply to procedure, to process in court, and therefore to be so limited that ''due process of law'' would be what the legislative branch enacted it to be. But that is not the interpretation which has been placed on the term. ''It is manifest that it was not left to the legislative power to enact any process which might be devised. The article is a restraint on the legislative as well as on the executive and judicial powers of the government, and cannot be so construed as to leave congress free to make any process 'due process of law' by its mere will.'' (Lessee v. Hoboken) Let us begin by examining the more recent, “Adam Wash Act.”

On December 7, 2006, in U.S. v. Crowell, Magistrate Judge Leslie G. Foschio held that the Adam Walsh Act's requirement that specific pretrial release conditions be imposed on all defendants accused of certain crimes violates the Fifth Amendment's Due Process Clause, the Eighth Amendment's Excessive Bail Clause, and separation of powers. So, the question presents itself – is the District Attorney’s (and Judge’s) right to impose “pretrial” conditions on an individual’s release, a direct violation of the Constitution? Here’s where the Grand Jury indictments come in – for no person shall be deprived of life OR liberty, without the due process of law. But, in a grand jury indictment, for the few states that still choose to against the WORLD WIDE accepted standard and use this unconstitutional and outdated method, that IS due process. Yes – you are guilty. I define that by: the imposing of legal restrictions, as would be imposed on an individual found guilty of a crime in a court of law. You are guilty, because they impose limitations on you: curfews; use of the internet; the ability to drive; to go to a public bar; to go into certain locations; to possess legal and lawful items; and so on. You are guilty, and these impositions will continue to be placed upon you until such time as you can be proven innocent. Otherwise, if you are found guilty, then these impositions are increased and you are PUNISHED TWICE.

That’s…. real…. Constitutional.. isn’t it?

Finally comes the matter of personal property being taken for public use. Let me put this to you in the most clear and simple matter possible: search and seizure. The taking of your belongings, for examination by law enforcement, use as evidence in grand jury indictments (and court hearings), is a direct counterpart to the Fourth Amendment’s protection of privacy. Perhaps some of you might be thinking: “Well, this means they can’t take your T.V. to watch it for themselves.” Why? That would deprive you of the item’s: 1) ownership, 2) use, 3) freedom of liberty and 4) your Constitutional rights as they apply here.

But, what’s the difference? Whether the State’s taking your belongings to “build a case,” in which they are committing all four infringements listed in the previous paragraph, or to “use it for their own, personal reasons,” – it’s the same thing! Your items are in their possession for their use. Your items will now “profit” them. Not only will YOUR possessions be used against you – but they will be used for THEIR profit. If we were talking something as simple as unlawfully downloaded music, which you cannot legally possess, then, that would be something that could possibly be debated. But, if that music was on your computer, where you also kept your personal files, your letters, your email, your taxes and whatnot – then they are DIRECTLY violating the Fifth Amendment to the US Constitution by keeping those items – WITHOUT just compensation.

Let me give you an example: Your computer’s taken under the false pretense of an accusation. But, in Oregon, false pretenses count as probable cause in the eyes of the law (somehow – that too – is believed to be “Constitutional??”). Your tax records are on there and you have them nowhere else. The IRS or Dept. of Revenue come knocking at your door, claiming you made a mistake in your tax filings seven years ago and owe them $50,000.00. The only proof you have is on your computer – but the State, without just compensation (which would mean equal and fair – not of value – of content – clearly stating that ALL of your information could be duplicated and returned to you immediately so you were NOT deprived of your belongings without said compensation), is preventing you from presenting your case. Now, the IRS/DOR, garnish your wages. You lose your home, your vehicle, can’t afford your meds and lose your health.

THIS IS EXACTLY why the Fifth Amendment exists. To overcome such dangerous situations that not only infringe upon your liberty – but YOUR LIFE!! However, the Oregon District Attorney’s Office, even in light of precedence set by the State Courts and multiple other States, will hold onto your valuables and abuse their power and privileges over you. Why? If you simply plead guilty or no contest -  your items are returned. You take the penalty, pay the fines (probably only around $3,000 or so – just losing your car, not your home or health), they get PAID for doing this to you, and the Constitution – well – it means NOTHING.

Does the Oregon D.A.’s office uphold the Constitution, as per their mission statement, the first Doctrine, as it pertains to the Fifth Amendment?

No. They argue and fight and spend OUR taxpayer dollars, to circumvent the Fifth Amendment. Once again – we have DIRECT EVIDENCE, that their office is lying, violating our Constitutional rights, and doing so without any manner of checks or balances. Of course, Oregon believes in Grand Juries – the “once upon a time” check and balance to prosecutions, and, in that corruption, has more prosecutions, per capita, than almost EVERY other State in the Union, justifying the taking of children and offering them up to rape, death and abuse; the imprisoning of innocent people, even before trial; and the continued abuse of power that remains unchecked.

The corruption of the Oregon District Attorney’s Office (pt 3)

In this third installment of our examination into the practices of the Oregon District Attorney’s Office, we continue on from where we left off, looking only at specific Amendments to the U.S. Constitution. But, make no mistake, the violations I speak of go way beyond that. I am merely pointing out the largest majority of violations of our rights, by the D.A.’s office – specifically – in contradiction to their claims.

State of Oregon
District Attorneys Mission Statement

The mission of the Oregon District Attorney is to uphold the United States Constitution and the Constitution and laws of the State of Oregon, to preserve the safety of the public, to protect the rights of crime victims and to pursue justice for all citizens with skill, honor and integrity.

(
excerpt from http://www.odaa.state.or.us/mission.htm)


Excerpts from The Constitution of The United States of America, as quoted by the District Attorney's office, to be the FIRST doctrine that they exist to uphold:

(note - thanks to Steve Mount at http://www.usconstitution.net/const.html for the Constitutional references):

Amendment 6 - Right to Speedy Trial, Confrontation of Witnesses. (Ratified 12/15/1791.)

In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defense.

First, let me point out the emphasis I maid above on: accused. That means: not guilty of, not yet determined to be guilty of, and only by mere “accusation,” has been brought forth for trial (refer to 5th Amendment post on pretrial punishments). But, Congress HAS instituted laws that directly and blatantly violate the premises upon which the Sixth Amendment rests:

On January 28, 2008, in U.S. v. Winslow, Judge Smith, D. Alaska, found that the government's conditions for the defense's review of the computer hard-drive seized in the case violated the defendant's due process, fair trial and Sixth Amendment rights. As a result, the court ordered the government to provide the defense attorney with a copy of the hard drive, under specified conditions. Is this isolated? No. And, I’ve been trying to avoid ‘specifics,’ to avoid the unnecessary argument as to whether these violations are limited. The fact is, that Oregon has been putting more people in prison, for a violation of the Adam Walsh Act and associated laws, without a trial or hearing, because the Defense Attorneys, even those who are paid, are recommending that their clients automatically say “no contest,” because the Attorneys KNOW, they cannot adequately provide for their client’s defense. You can go to the State of Oregon’s, Public Defender website and read the numerous articles on this FACT, for yourself.

What’s really at the heart of the matter here though, is the violation of the Constitutional Right to confront the witnesses and the evidence. The Oregon D.A.’s office PREVENTS any “accused” individual from confronting their offender, in a court room, for many types of crimes, including sex offense. You cannot force the Courts to have to listen to the possibility that someone is lying, or that the ACCUSORS DON’T EVEN EXIST!! Yes – you cannot even prove that they are NOT REAL!! This has given way to the Oregon D.A.’s office blatantly abusing their power by trying cases solely upon “Circumstantial Evidence.”

In such cases where ONLY circumstantial evidence exists, the idea is to convince the trier of fact (a Judge or Jury), that you are probably MORE guilty, than not. And, in cases of internet pornography, murder, theft, and other such cases, the D.A. will present the so-called “evidence” to the trier of fact to help establish their disgust or anger against you. Do you need to see a picture of a nude child to determine that they are a nude child? Do you need to see the picture of a dead body to determine the individual is actually dead? Isn’t that what evidentiary hearings are for? To prove whether or not the evidence is real?

Here’s the catch. The Sixth Amendment does NOT say you are entitled to ‘competent’ or ‘effective’ counsel. It does not guarantee you protection against attorney’s who just want to take the money and run. Individual States are supposed to do that. And, where the D.A.’s office claims that part of its “mission,” is to preserve the safety of the public, to protect the rights of crime victims and to pursue justice for all citizens with skill, honor and integrity, the question is whether or not, their trying a case against you where you are not provided with effective or adequate counsel, is within the boundaries of “skill, honor and integrity?” I would argue that clearly, it’s not.

But, how do you even get a “fair” trial in front of a so-called, “jury of your peers?” The mere definition is an oxymoron. A Jury of my peers, that represents the peoples’ choice in this matter, is not 13 people sitting on a witness stand. It’s half a million people, it’s the entire nation. In fact, it goes so far as to be: NONE of the above. The truth is, that Jury, without any factual evidence such as “Witnesses to the crime,” are only being presented with evidence. And, in many cases, it is NOT EVEN evidence that a crime occurred! Ah, there lies the rub that makes calamity of so long life….

In Internet crimes, where the content of an individual’s computer contains contraband, the State and Federal laws BOTH, clearly state, that the crime is not in the mere possession of the evidence, in a digital format (as such would violate an individual’s free right to legally copy music they own and would most CERTAINLY violate the 4th Amendment right to be secure in your personal and private belongings), but in the knowing downloading, accessing, storing and use (and distribution in certain instances) of that material. If I show you a hard disk with music on it that I believe the defendant had accessed off the Internet, I did not show you their ‘knowing’ download, just my opinion that it “more likely than not, beyond a ‘reasonable,’ doubt, occurred.” But, what is the reasonable doubt? Who determines what’s reasonable? A Jury of 13 people that don’t know me, anything about my values and morals, anything about my history or life or even what actually happened at the time this supposed ‘download’ occurred? Maybe a jury of technically incompetent individuals who don’t know enough to understand the whole entire “hacking/identity theft” industry? And, that’s where the D.A. comes in…

You see, the D.A. is permitted to be involved in the jury selection process. Why? Is that to ensure fairness to you? Of course not, they want to ensure there’s no bias against them, right? What bias is there – when YOU are the accused, YOU are the one being falsely accused of committing terrible and horrific acts against the welfare of those 13 people judging you. The only purpose the D.A. has, and you can read this on the NATIONAL DISTRICT ATTORNEY’S WEBSITE, under the area of articles, where they list a specific article pertaining to the Jury Selection Process in digital crimes. It specifically states that: “Most jurors have an 8th grade intellect…” it goes on to say that it is imperative that the D.A. see to it that technically savvy individuals NOT be chosen for the jury, because they could identify the holes in the D.A.’s case, where it’s actually impossible to prove an individual was in front of their computer. It also states that: Completely unsavvy people should not be selected either, because their lack of computer knowledge will make it too difficult for you to explain to them that someone is guilty when you can’t actually prove that guilt. Instead, an individual of bare-minimum computer skills must be chosen, as they will be able to only understand that computers contain data, good or bad, but not understand the principals of how you actually “identify WHO” was on the computer and “who” committed the crime.

Okay – unconstitutional?

"....by an impartial jury...."

How much MORE UNCONSTITUTIONAL would you like to make this? What about the TV and media CONSTANTLY blasting horror stories about these types of crimes, creating an ENTIRE SOCIETY that is driven to be pre-determinately against the Defendant? If this is not an absolute violation by the D.A.’s office, ESPECIALLY in Oregon, I don’t know what is:

"….Pursue justice for all citizens with skill, honor and integrity,"

How much MORE against the D.A.’s so-called, “mission,” could this be? In fact – it gets worse. The State of Oregon has had it argued, with the help of the D.A.’s office, to reduce payment for Defense counsel and reduce the amount of financial aid provided by the Oregon Public Defender’s Financial Assistance office, making it virtually impossible for the Defense to adequately mount a case!! Folks – you can go online and read all this for yourself. I, sadly, cannot. As I write this, I do so with a pen and paper, using notes provided for me by my brother, because of some of the very issues that exist in this one, exact violation of the Constitution, and amongst others.

How many more INNOCENT people will have to be released from prison before someone realizes, that the inability to hold the D.A.’s office accountable to their “mission” statement, is perpetuating the violation of our rights?

Has the D.A. upheld the Sixth Amendment to the Constitution?

No, they haven’t. They have abused their authority to help select bias juries, to falsely and wrongly influence them, in the MIDDLE OF A TRIAL, without punishment for doing so, to prevent the Defense from proving his innocence – and for what? The “pursuit of justice?” When is it a pursuit of “justice,” when you blockade the “accused,” from proving their innocence? When is it a “pursuit of justice,” when you present so-called ‘evidence,’ to a legally unknowledgeable jury, falsely making them ‘believe,’ it’s evidence of a crime? When is it justice when you work to make the jury ‘hate’ the defendant, rather than rely upon facts?

When is it the pursuit of justice with SKILL, HONOR and INTEGRITY, when you try people based on the possibility they committed the crime, not the facts? Is this protecting us? Did this actually protect the crime victims’ rights (that is – going after the wrong person and possibly letting the guilty one free to do it again)? Is this supporting the Constitution of the United States, as claimed by the Oregon’s D.A. office?
