CRIME, AS A GOVERNMENT SPONSORED TERRORISM

06/26/2009


CRIME, AS A GOVERNMENT SPONSORED TERRORISM

(Note: I know it takes me a while to get to the point of the title but you will see why)

You would tell me that the government is against crime, that everyday new laws are passed to protect the citizens of the United States to make us safer. Well don't we have laws against drunk driving, for wearing seat belts, against using cell phones while driving, heck we even have laws against using, selling and possessing sex toys,
http://www.gopetition.com/gopetition-in-the-media/194/alabama-ban-on-selling-sex-toys-goes-into-effect.html

It is all to protect you and keep you safer of course! mostly from your own self.
We of course have laws against drugs, your thirteen year old daughter can b e legally strip searched at school if she is suspected of carrying a midol, so long as they can say there was probable cause, of course probable cause is left to the s\discreation of the police/ school authority.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090625/ap_on_go_su_co/us_supreme_court_strip_search

Reading the decision, the court does not say that the search itself was illegal, but that the school did not have probable cause in the particular case.

"What was missing from the suspected facts that pointed to Savana was any indication of danger to the students from the power of the drugs or their quantity, and any reason to suppose that Savana was carrying pills in her underwear," Justice David Souter wrote in Thursday's majority opinion.

And again please read this carefully ,""

In a dissent, Justice Clarence Thomas said the search had been legal and the court previously had given school officials "considerable leeway" under the Fourth Amendment in school settings.

In this case, officials had searched the girl's backpack and found nothing, Thomas said. "It was eminently reasonable to conclude the backpack was empty because Redding was secreting the pills in a place she thought no one would look," he said.

Thomas warned that the majority's decision could backfire. "Redding would not have been the first person to conceal pills in her undergarments," he said. "Nor will she be the last after today's decision, which announces the safest place to secrete contraband in school."

The court also ruled the middle school officials could not be held liable in a lawsuit for the search. """

If you think that an authority will not find a probable cause easy enough to find you don't know the meaning of the abuse of power.

Case in point, say you are at a park sitting reading a book and police stops by and asks you to identify your self, the Supreme court of the US says that you must,,

http://www.csmonitor.com/2004/0622/p01s01-usju.html

These may be the extreme examples of the police powers in this country, but this is only the start, do you know how many different types of police agencies there are in this country. I am not talking about the store security at Wal-mart, (they have the power to make citizens arrests any way and most stores do hire the local ""off -duty" police ( talk about an inside track). I thought about counting the layers of police authorities in this country.

Local police and detectives
Sheriffs
State police
State troopers
State Bureau of Investigations
Tax collectors,
code enforcers
Game Wardens
National Guard
FBI
Federal Marshall's
BATF
ICE
Coast Guard
Military services with their own police, security, investigation services
Homeland security
NSA

this list probably represents only just the half of the police power available in this country, wonder what police state looks like.

Mind you I have discussed the role of poverty, broken families, lack of character boundaries, lack of morality, a society where anything goes, and more elsewhere in my blogs for years,

http://tombstone001.blogspot.com/2007/06/war-on-poverty.html



today here I wish to speak to the role of the police powers in creation of crimes that terrorize the populace.


http://www.november.org/stayinfo/breaking09/Prison_Rape_Guidelines.html

a paragraph from the above article states

"But the recommendations could pose a challenge for wardens who already battle crowding. Corrections officers, who according to inmate surveys commit a significant percentage of inmate assaults, also may protest more oversight."

It is hard to overestimate the power of fear, it is even harder to overestimate fear of the crime on the public's mind. When gangs roam free in the streets, when drug trade is conducted in the streets with thugs intimidating the populace with their brashness and weaponry, when witnesses are intimidated without fear of apprehension or consequence then what is the public but terrorized. But where are the police and what protection do they offer.

What do we get for our tax dollars, the protection money that we pay the governments at all levels, city, county , state and federal. Our government has eyes in the sky, everywhere there are cameras, satellites, listening devices, sniffing dogs, and much more. But the drugs come through our borders and are transported all over the country by "hapless" couriers. Deals are made on street corners, in motel rooms and high dollar penthouses, by cell phones and the inter net. Monies are transferred by the millions and billions.

Then there is the "illegal' weapons, traded over the world, bombs and bazookas, missiles and cannons, even air planes.

Trading of flesh is even scarier, kidnappings for not only for money but for sale of organs and sex, all of it not only happening in third world countries but right here, not in our back yards but in our collective face.

So one must ask what is the government doing, why is M 13 gang or any gang so powerful that we can not take care of them, how do we not know who the professional criminals are why they are not rotting in prison. Why are our streets dangerous and criminals so powerful. Or is the government nothing more than a protection racket where the rich can feel safe and the poor and the working classes are scared. .

Think of this, when was the last time (can't count Mt, Carmel fiasco, but may be the Wounded Knee) you heard of the police (of any kind) being in a shoot out with the gangs or the drug smugglers or even a "radical group", if the police are ever attacked, it is commonly a lone schmuck that wants to get killed. There are no SLA or Black Panthers, yet every local police department worth its salt has SWAT teams and automatic weapons and more and more are demanding the same if not more. Oh it is only for "your" protection, is it not? If crime pays, it pays handsomely for the police.
Again, we have exorbitant court cost fees tacked on to the ordinary traffic violations, and the police are encouraged to confiscate your personal property under any false pretense the may come up with, pray tell me what is terrorism, pray tell me if you really feel safer.

Wikipedia defines terror as such
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terror

Terror is an overwhelming sense of imminent danger. It is shock, horror and/or fear so intense that it elicits an acute stress reaction and a combat, faint or escape response in place of rational thinking. In relationship to terrorism, the provocateur aims to elicit terror for the purpose of using the three responses of combat, faint or escape to his advantage.

So then it follows that is not just the ordinary street crime we should be talking about,
take look at the economy of this country, the banking system, the health care, the global warming, the war on drugs, the war on terror, all designed to terrorize you in to submission. All designed to scare you in to giving up your rights, and to taking away your rights

WHATEVER "YOU" CAN AFFORD!

06/24/2009

WHATEVER "YOU" CAN AFFORD!

There is a big debate going on in Washington these days, what to do about the sky rocketing health care costs.

Let me put this to you straight!,in a free market you can only buy what you can pay for, no more no less. So this mantra of the conservatives and Republicans that the cure for what ails the health care system is in the free market is a pure lie.

Do we disregard these bare fact that people are losing employment, that the employers are cutting benefits and salaries, more so the health care benefits. That the jobs are being moved overseas to avoid paying high salaries and benefits. Thus wishful thinking or not, more and more people in country will become uninsured as the time goes on. This is not a prophecy this is just a simple acknowledgment of facts.
Is it so hard for the mouth pieces of the right and the commiseration radio to tell you to go fuck yourself?

Back in May of 2007 I wrote about the health care mess and sent copies to my local paper as well as to then president Bush and the Senator Shelby, I have also sent the copies of same to president Obama, and to congressman Bright.

http://tombstone001.blogspot.com/2007/05/eyes-wide-shut-ii.html

here are some facts

We can not afford to pay for every seventy plus with a chronic or terminal illness to live another six or eight months at the cost of millions, we need to pay only for them to die comfortable

We can not afford to pay for people who keep making babies whether they have the resources for their support, not food stamps, not free rentals, (section 8) not for their medical expenses, do away with medicare, it is bastardizing the nation. If the bleeding hearts want to pay for them let them pass the plate amongst themselves.

Social workers, psychologists, and their ilk make money of the misery of others, they don't work for free or for a stipend, no one should be paid for wanting to help others.

WHAT "TWO" IS?

06/23/2009

WHAT "TWO" IS?

The old adage says, that if you can add two and two and come up with a reasonably close answer, you are smart. So the question then must be what is "two"? Why so many have a problem adding up "two" and a "two" ? And why is the answer so darn difficult?

We want Obama to advise the Iranians about the elections but we forget, it was a mere eight years ago when we also had a disputed election in which an unpopular man apparently was declared the winner by our supreme leaders. The unpopular man started unnecessary wars and thumbed his nose at the world, so there.




















We forget that in our free country we cage the protesters, keep them away from cameras and the news media, oh come on, you are not ignorant now are you?

Apparently we don't see this as a double standard when our soldiers and police and undercover agents beat up, water hose, shove push and bomb with tear gas or shoot rubber bullets at the protesters who rally against globalization, GATT, and IMF, or G-8, 9, 10, 11, 20 meetings. And as I have mentioned our friendly governments who oppress their own people, like the Saudi's Egyptians, Sudanese and their ilk. We rail against North Koreans when the power is passed from father to son, but is not Hosni, our buddy our pal, doing the same?

What will happen when the seemingly endless stream of step brothers meets their end in Saudi Arabia and we have to prop up a younger thief that promises to be controlled by us most closely.

It is not that I do not wish freedom and democracy for my Iranian friends and brothers and sister, and their success in their struggles, It is the hypocrisy of the media and the US and European policies that I must question, "you have done enough. Have you no sense of decency, sir? At long last, have you left no sense of decency?"
Joseph N. Welch, the Joseph McCarthy Hearings 1954

And then look at what just happened, Chris Brown was given probation by a judge for beating the tar out of his girl friend, and that is way less than what Micheal Vick got for beating up his dogs. So much for the respect of human life and dignity in the good ole US of A, may be we need to get our heads out, before we advise others as to what "two" is!

My hat is off to Neda Sultan for her sacrifice, my condolences to her family, where ever they are. I only wish that the people of the world would not just call out the Iranian regime but also the Saudi' s and the Egyptians and the Israelis, and Palestinians.

AS IRAN BURNS

06/21/2009

AS IRAN BURNS

CNN is having a ball, they have a video of a possible arrest or more going down in Iran and they keep repeating it over and over. Why not, we have a free media don't we?

I felt like screaming at the screen, we were setting the poor Iranian bastards up for this, knowing full well there is not shit we can or will do to defend any nation, any people, any where.

Meanwhile there are protests, by some stupid supporters of this so called democracy in action? Protesting in far away places, like Europe and in Washington DC, but where are the protests in Riyadh, in Cairo, in Kuwait city? Are you just as impressed as I am?

It is said that McCain will show up on Sunday morning shows to protest the in action of Obama? what sleaze we buy in to? Damn it we don't even give a damn about the genocide in Darfur, we on;y like to talk shit.

What do we have over Iran? Do we not trade with China? Do the Chinese give shit about the Darfur? Do we not trade with the Saudis. How well they regard the human rights of their denizens? It was funny when Obama went to deliver his message to the Muslims, he first went to Saudi Arabia, then he went to Egypt where they lock up the people who want to make Egypt like Saudi Arabia, a fundamentalist Islamic country, and the Irony was lost on the media. None dare say a word about it.

So goodnight the budding Iranian democracy movement, hope only a few among you are killed or tortured, any way it will all be done in the name of Allah. All the good Muslims around the world will say, may peace of God be upon you, and then sit on their asses.

OBAMA, US, IRAN AND DEMOCRACY

06/19/2009

OBAMA, US, IRAN AND DEMOCRACY

So the free press and the news media are excited about the Iranian elections and their outcome where the president Ahmedinjad has supposedly lost.

We , in the US are pretending to support the so called "democracy" and the protesters, and we "hope" that there will be no violent confrontation, It is all so amusing, do we really wish for true democracy in Iran, do we really not want the regime to come down with a heavy hand brutally crack down on the protesters.

If the Iranian Mullahs had any sense of reality they would actually withdraw Ahmedinjad' s support and handover the power to the demonstrators. And then what will happen and what will Obama and the United states do?

If Iranian demonstrators are allowed to succeed the regimes in Saudi Arabia and Egypt will fall tomorrow. Kuwait and Dubai and Abu Dhabi will kick out the US forces, Iraqi Sheia will prosecute for peace with Suni's, none of it a desirable out come for the United States and her allies who are worse criminals than the Iranians

AS ROME BURNED

06/18/2009


AS ROME BURNED

As I wanted to use the phrase "AS ROME BURNED" as my title, I googled it to see if it had been used in regards to our current situation before. I have come across the title and you can read it also at, http://monthlyreview.org/mrzine/wolff130208.html. published in Feburary of 2008 it does however confirm my beliefs of August 2007 here at http://tombstone001.blogspot.com/2007/08/breaking-thebanks.html So I am not the only one being scared by or has been scared by our situation, but what I am about to write here and suggest to you is not at like what is in the above article, so it will be worth your time to continue reading.

In my earlier post, I talked about Honor vs Honesty, http://tombstone001.blogspot.com/2009/06/honor-or-honesty.html
but first, let me remind you I only write about how I see the things, and i don't tell you what to do, I show you the reality, as i know and see it, what you do , if you learn anything, is totally up to you .

There is a police strategy, you keep the criminal talking and sooner or later a bit of truth will come out. So it was when the American ship was hijacked by the Somali pirates media were talking about the business model. I suppose then that in a free market economy, the industrialists are no more than mere criminals in business suit, but with the same moral standing as the hijackers.

We all know that the communism failed, we celebrate that, do we yet know that the capitalism has also failed. We have been living a lie for the past thirty years. Tax reductions do not increase government revenues, no matter how you slice it. I have also proposed and explained that all money spent is actually and in fact government money, that the rich do not create jobs so you can buy food and iPods for your kids, the government controls the purse strings and "creates" new money as the economy expands.

For the last three decades the government has gone crazy and become irresponsible. As the manufacturing was shipped overseas and imports increased, the government kept increasing the money supply and kept the interest rates low to cover up the problem of lack of revenue, we should know that if the interest rates went up by just two points the deficit (due to increase in the interest payment) will become untenable. The opposite, if the interest rates are kept low the dollar will fall and inflation will go up.

In the midst of all this, we are spending money to keep up the false facade of a high standard of living, because if the standard of living of the Americans was to fall drastically and suddenly, there could be great problems.

At the same time, the commiseration media, also called the talk radio, keeps fanning the flames of stupidity, blaming Obama for all that has gone wrong with the country and there must be idiots by the millions who are buying the horse manure, dished by the likes of Hannity, Limbaugh and Boortz.

ONE NIGHT IN BANGKOK

ONE NIGHT IN BANGKOK








- One Night in Bangkok Lyrics

Download RingtoneSend “One Night in Bangkok” Ringtone to Your CellDownload Ringtone

[THE AMERICAN]
Bangkok, Oriental setting
And the city don't know that the city is getting
The creme de la creme of the chess world in a
Show with everything but Yul Brynner

Time flies -- doesn't seem a minute
Since the Tirolean spa had the chess boys in it
All change -- don't you know that when you
Play at this level there's no ordinary venue

It's Iceland -- or the Philippines -- or Hastings -- or --
or this place!

[COMPANY]
One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster
The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free
You'll find a god in every golden cloister
And if you're lucky then the god's a she
I can feel an angel sliding up to me

[THE AMERICAN]
One town's very like another
When your head's down over your pieces, brother

[COMPANY]
It's a drag, it's a bore, it's really such a pity
To be looking at the board, not looking at the city

[THE AMERICAN]
Whaddya mean? Ya seen one crowded, polluted, stinking town --

[COMPANY]
Tea, girls, warm, sweet
Some are set up in the Somerset Maugham suite

[THE AMERICAN]
Get Thai'd! You're talking to a tourist
Whose every move's among the purest
I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine

[COMPANY]
One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
Not much between despair and ecstasy
One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
Can't be too careful with your company
I can feel the devil walking next to me

[THE AMERICAN]
Siam's gonna be the witness
To the ultimate test of cerebral fitness
This grips me more than would a
Muddy old river or reclining Buddha

And thank God I'm only watching the game -- controlling it --

I don't see you guys rating
The kind of mate I'm contemplating
I'd let you watch, I would invite you
But the queens we use would not excite you

So you better go back to your bars, your temples, your massage
parlours --

[COMPANY]
One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster
The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free
You'll find a god in every golden cloister
A little flesh, a little history
I can feel an angel sliding up to me

One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
Not much between despair and ecstasy
One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
Can't be too careful with your company
I can feel the devil walking next to me

SO TELL ME THAT AGAIN! (GAME OVER)

06/15/2009

SO TELL ME THAT AGAIN! (GAME OVER)

So that I know that I get this right, you want people in the third world to support "your" American life style right. Of course that is what globalization means right? You want Chinese and the Indians and the Arabs to pay for our health care, and that is just for starters.
Isn't this true that the International Brotherhood of Morons (IBM) wants to create a smarter planet so they sold their manufacturing to a Chinese Government owned company. And why not, surely it will not be ALL Americans living in that smarter planet. Isn't it also true that the Unemployed Auto Workers (UAW) were sold out to the point that they accepted lower wages, reduced benefits and jobs cuts to the bare bones.


Do we really expect those Chinese who work fourteen hour days for four and half dollars per day to not only support our welfare system, but while they being forced to abort a second fetus, to loan us monies to take care of the likes of Nadya Suleman and the Tennessee guy with the twenty one kids.

And expect the people of the Indian and the African slums to pay us to keep our air conditioners going and have free health care?

Or the Arabs to give us oil for cheap while they buy billion dollar aircraft and pay for our high dollar prostitutes.

Or may be the Japanese and the Koreans who send their kids to ten hour school days followed by four hour home work to support our video game addicts and slackers?

I bet you the things are about to change. Change drastically, and for ever, only not for the better as we would like them to. GAME OVER!

HONOR OR HONESTY

06/14/2009

HONOR OR HONESTY

There was a time , not so long ago, when people, especially people of status were supposed to be honorable, today most people don't even know what honor means.
"Caesar was an honorable man", at least he had the sense to banish his sister when she was having pre-marital sex, today we take our daughters to get laid by boys and come home to watch mommy getting fucked,

or may be close OK.

But really this is not the point, we would really think that an honorable person will also be an HONEST person, HONEST AS IN TRUTHFUL, AS IN COURAGEOUS , AND RIGHTEOUS PERSON. Sadly though to day to be "honorable" does not mean that you must possess any of the above mentioned other qualities, not even one.

And that brings me to the politicians, and lawyers and law makers and law enforcers, world leaders, and church leaders.

USA, A REALITY SHOW?

06/10/2009


USA, A REALITY SHOW?

I keep hoping still, I don't pray for prayers don't work, I hope, I hope that the country and the humanity will wake up soon to the disaster that is about to befall most of us.

I have used examples before, told stories, the Bible speaks of the parables within it, and the Quran says, "tilk al-amsalu nadribuha lil nass fa lalahum yakeeloon", these examples we give so the people may become informed.

And I tell you stories too. Over time, I have used the stories of the "Pied Piper", "Of Mice and Men", "The Sherek", "It Can't Happen Here", "Alice in Wonderland" and others, I have used songs, and poems, to get peoples attention, and yours, I have succeeded in alienating many, all with the purpose and the goal to show you the reality as it is. Not many are interested, as the numbers below remind me every day, no one cares to know the truth.

A"Reality Show" by definition is a falsehood, we know that any person or a group will behave in an unnatural way when it knows it is being observed. But we "accept" it as "real" or a true representation of reality. I have no problem with reality shows per se, be it WWE, Survior or "the whores with real money (also promoted as "the Real Housewives of ----------" or "The Hills", The Simpson Girls, The Hulk Hogan Family, the Osbornes to name just a few except that consumers of such fare on TV have an altered sense of reality.

Then we have the millions who spend hours and days on the "Facebook",( I have a page), the twitter, or whatever the rage of the day is, if not abusing themselves otherwise,on the cell phone or the internet, that is.

We all have an altered sense of reality, we have submitted our selves to brain washing, the following commercial is actually true, the irony is that we think of it is as a joke




Years ago I had mentioned that the US is being destroyed internally, and whether you are liberal or conservative, the government is Democrats or Republicans, then end results of the policies and opinions is the same, and always damaging to the country.

So you say you are different, let me show you how you are not, first think of this, Republicans are for balanced budgets and the Democrats are for spending and taxes, right? Now look closer, it was under Mr. Reagan and with his tax cuts that the budget deficits started to bloom, budget was balanced under Clinton who got "lucky" with the boom created by the inception of the internet, Bush W. got us back on the track of becoming broke, any one trying to explain this away is only more full of shit than you are.

Many conservatives speak bad of our foreign involvement, evils of free trade and are anti globalists, but so are many liberal against the free trade and enslaving of cheap and child labor in distant countries. Here is an eye opener for the conservatives then





Abstract:

The role of international organizations in the governance of national economies is attracting increasing attention by economic sociologists. This paper examines the histories of two international organizations widely seen as influential in economic governance: the GATT (later WTO) and the IMF. We show that these organizations have become much more important sources of governance than they were several decades ago. Although both institutions originated in the 1940s, both subsequently experienced significant jurisdictional expansions, allowing them to set a larger number of rules over a much wider set of national economic policies. We trace the transformation of these organizations to a common “critical juncture” in the 1980s, when the Reagan administration embarked on a project of international institutional renewal and reform deliberately aimed at spreading the “magic of the marketplace” around the world and renewing America’s economic leadership. Although leading in the same general direction, this project of reform played out differently in the two institutions, reflecting distinct institutional logics, and varying responsiveness to domestic and international politics.

Today we are left to gimmicks and finger pointing, as the US economy descends into an abyss, social- security and health care are broke education is marginal at best, due to out sourcing of jobs which causes lower wages and lack of benefits, and we have a "work force" that is basically lazy, ill educated and unprepared, and a consumption based economy in which today people have already blown their wad, we talk about the wind mills, and computerized health care records as the solutions, and what is worst the people buy this crap.

And why not, as the technology has advanced, we are the least prepared "advanced" nation for it, mostly mentally. While education was being demeaned and ridiculed in the pop culture, ( W e Don't need No Education), we handed over the education to some of the worst shmucks , from educators to the administrators.

OBAMA'S MESSAGE TO MUSLIMS

06/02/2009

OBAMA'S MESSAGE TO MUSLIMS


It is fitting that the president of the United States should visit Arab or Islamic countries, and he did go to Turkey. But what message does the president of the United States carry to the Muslims.

It is said that every gesture and every word carries some importance and meaning in these situations. As it was with the visit of the pope, what words were used or left out, where he went and did not, all was parsed as to what this or that meant. So what does the travel of the president of the United States to Egypt and Saudi Arabia, to speak to the Muslim populace say about what the United States thinks of the Muslims in general.

The visit to the two Islamic countries that are not the beacons of democracy but the icons of corruption and cruelty, lack of freedoms of speech and any semblance of human rights and dignity IS a clear message to the Muslims , AMERICA DOES NOT GIVE A SHIT ABOUT YOUR RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS.

If the Saudi' can be "rewarded" in less than a week of their hanging of a beheaded body, (yes he was a double murderer as it is), and buddying up to Bashir, the genocidal thug of Darfur, Sudan, then what in the hell the US stand for, and what has changed in our policies, why do we cry crocodile tears for freedom amd democracy?

Obama' visit to Saudi Arabia and Egypt is not a hand reaching out to the Muslims, it is a slap in the face of all who want equality, freedom and justice, any where.
