Musings On Feral Gummint

If the people of the United State of America have any sense whatsoever, then we should hear almost immediately calls for an end to the Transportation Safety Administration, loud and unending demands for the dismantling of the surveillance state and Homeland Security, and gun sales should not only hit the roof, but blow through it.

Why?

Because one of the most notorious criminals in recent decades was being held in a federal maximum security facility in New York City on suicide watch with 24-hour surveillance while in solitary confinement guarded by dozens of government agents and employees.  And he...um, died at a moment when the round-the-clock cameras just happened to fail and somehow this person had the means to "hang" himself though completely denuded of strings, belts, sheets, or other material suitable for the job.

If the feral gummint could not protect this person - either from himself or others - with all of this security around him, then it is completely powerless to protect anyone anywhere at any time.

There is, in fact, no place that is secure under the watchful eye of omnipresent gummint.  It can not stop anyone from harming me or my family at any time in any circumstance.  The only real alternative is to arm every man, woman and child, teach them proper gun handling and use, and stop paying for police services, prisons, surveillance, spies, military, et cetera ad nauseum.  It is all completely useless and Jeffrey Epstein is the proof we all need to see.

Gummint is by definition a concentration of power and wealth initially justified as a means to protect the rights and safety of a people.  However, the very act of concentrating power and wealth attracts corruption the way sugar attracts ants.  The most vile individuals in society gravitate towards gummint and ultimately they find ever new and creative ways to bilk, rob and control humanity.

History is replete with examples of gummint gone wild.  Tale after tale demonstrate that gummint is the deadliest force ever conceived by our species.  Millions upon millions of lives have been shattered and destroyed by gummint.  There is no scenario where it remains benign.  It is a cancer that grows and spreads until it consumes the society off which it lives.  The greatest contradiction of all time is the term "good gummint".

What the Epstein example shows us is that there is no place safe, no amount of security, that comes from gummint.  It is controlled by powerful individuals who can turn its knobs, push its buttons and pull its levers to make anything they choose happen.  It is painfully plain that gummint does not exist to protect us, its sole function is to ensure "they" are safe and sound from us.

Jeffrey Epstein had the power - through corruption - to bring down the global political, financial and academic power structure.  He was a glorified pimp to those who fancy themselves masters of humanity.  In an unguarded moment, he could have uttered a handful of words that could collapse entire nations (and may yet do so).  He spent most of his adult life providing forbidden fruit to the most wealthy and powerful individuals in the world. 

Do we really think he wouldn't have spilled the beans to save his own hide?  He figured, in his warped little mind, that either his own fortune or that of others would get him off (again) so that he could return to business as usual.  He had no reason to kill himself and thought no one else would either.  What's more, he was protected by the full force and power of the US feral gummint.

Fat lotta good it did him.

The point is one I have made repeatedly on this site: there is no reforming a broken System.  It is a self-protecting and self-perpetuating morass of evil and corruption that can not be excised, healed, repaired, or rehabilitated.  At best, people can take back their right and responsibility to protect themselves, but this cancer will only grow back more malignant than before.

The US feral gummint is a three trillion dollar per year fiasco that could not protect one individual is a maximum security facility - either from himself or others - surrounded by all the trappings of power.

This is not just true of one gummint, it is true of all of them.  This is just the most recent and blatant example.

The next time you are subjected to a phalanx of metal detectors, surveillance cameras, body pat-downs, luggage searches, interrogations, X-ray machines, safety rules and regulations, and calls for the elimination of self-defense tools, ask yourself:

What would Jeffrey Epstein think of all this?

If the goal is to save our children from predators, then let's begin with the Beast at the lowest level of Hell - the one that protects and enables all the others.

Q The Conspiracy - A Phenomenon

For background on today's rant, we recommend that you look up these YouTube channels: PrayingMedic, JustInformed Talk, SpaceShot76.

With that bit of housekeeping out of the way, time to turn our piercing eye on this Q-anon thing.  Perhaps you've seen the hashtags #Qanon or #WWG1WGA.  Maybe you're passingly familiar with this phenomenon.  If not, you're missing one of the most interesting internet memes I've ever seen, and I've been on the internet since before the web existed and there was any such thing as a browser.

I published an article a while back on the historical context of Q, and the phenomenon has gotten even more interesting since then.  What is pushing the intrigue into hyperbolic orbit are the recent "drops" from Q that promise some real July fireworks that can stand as a test of the Q's claims.

To fully appreciate this phenomenon, you will need a primer, as the insiders have developed a kind of jargon.  Many of the terms used by the Q-Anon come from a 1996 film called White Squall.  Phrases like "where we go one, we go all" (WWG1WGA), "the storm" and several others are lifted directly from the script.  Make of that what you will, but the fact remains.

Next, there are terms like "drops" (Q posts on 8chan - not 4chan), "proofs" (things Donald Trump does or says that ostensibly confirm Q's proximity to him), and "decodes" (the Anons decipher coded drops).  It is at this point that I direct the gentle reader to familiarize himself with  the Cicada 3301 phenomenon, which appears to be an early version of Q that I'll get into shortly.

The Anons are a secretive group of groupies that form a kind of priesthood.  They "decode" Q drops, do some rather interesting research in the public domain, and issue clarifications and predictions based on the drops.  A fictional allusion that would also fit the Anons are the Baker Street Irregulars who assisted Sherlock Holmes in gathering information.

A recent example of the proofs in action is the contention that on at least two occasions, Trump has spotted and acknowledged folks wearing Q t-shirts at rallies.  Another is a posted photo claiming to be a reflection off the back of Trump's iPhone of a lamp in the office on Air Force One.  Word is cryptic "proofs" like this help to avoid issues with national security laws.

So, here's the background so far:

Q began "drops" in late October of 2017, on an exclusive board on 8ch.net.  According to legend, this appearance coincided with the Las Vegas massacre and all of the speculation over conspiracies, official and otherwise.

The legend holds that the US military was on the verge of a coup against Barack Obama and the Deep State cabal that had taken over the federal government, beginning with the Bush I presidency.  Fearing that such a move would cause more problems than were manageable, the insiders decided to recruit Donald Trump as a "clean" outsider who could come in and "drain the swamp".  Let's set aside the fact that this seems like an enormous Hail Mary pass, the thinking is that Trump was a popular icon of the American Dream - rags to riches, self-made billionaire, man of the people, etc.

The legend continues that the Hillary Clinton campaign bought into this plan - without being aware - thinking that Trump would be a cake walk opponent in the general elections.  They did everything they could to both promote Trump as a viable candidate in the primaries, and to paint him as a buffoon, thus ensuring a Clinton victory in November 2016.  The rest, as we know, is not legend.  She lost.

What has ensued since then, according to Q Canon, is a massive covert war just under the public radar with the Bush-Clinton-Obama cabal on one side, aided and abetted by the GeezerMedia [my term], and Trump and his team on the other side.  If you use your Little Orphan Annie Secret Decoder Ring found in your jar of Ovaltine, current events can certainly be interpreted to support this reading.  But then, sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

Now, if you are unfamiliar with Cicada 3301, it is well worth your time to read up on it, especially in light of Q-anon.  In January 2012, a series of coded puzzles began appearing on various boards like 4chan and 8chan.  They were extremely byzantine, requiring vast historical, cryptographic, computer, linguistic, and geographic knowledge and/or exceptional research skills.  To date, no one knows (openly) who started Cicada 3301 or what the purpose was, though plenty of speculation goes to it being a recruiting tool, most likely for an alphabet organization within the 5-Eyes.

The more you learn about Cicada 3301, the more parallels you find to the Q-Anon phenomenon: encoded messages, research, a single source point, a bunch of cyber-jockeys going nuts with excitement.  If you buy the entire Q-Anon legend, then the 2012 start date wuld seem oddly coincidental with a purposed military coup during the Obama regime - particularly Round 2 - and the hatching of a plan like this one to "red-pill" the masses.

The plan would be easy to dismiss without someone in the presidency willing to throw the power of the office behind it.  Otherwise, it could be easily dismissed as just more conspiracy theory noise. Cicada 3301 recruited the Anon teams and put them in place, and Trump is certainly theatrical enough, with an appropriate poker face, to pull off a public narrative that is bread and circuses, while covertly running a massive operation to take down nefarious elements within the federal government.

All circumstantial, I grant you, but at what point does the evidence pile up high enough to be taken seriously?

So, here's where things stand at the moment:

• Mass resignations of Congressional Representatives and Senators, as well as CEOs of major companies (think Google); 
• thousands of arrests of child porn and sex rings (PizzaGate figures heavily into the legend, see John Podesta WekiLeaks email); 
• ANTIFA and their ilk; 24/7 bashing of the Trump administration in the GeezerMedia; 
• sweeping replacements of activist judges and Attorneys General across the country; 
• complete clean-out of upper management in key federal agencies;
• the latest hubbub over Imran Awan plea deal and what - exactly - the feds got in return (think servers and Seth Rich).

The list goes on, but you get the idea.  And it's not limited to the US, as Hungary, Austria, Italy, Germany and other countries have turned sharply to the nationalist/populist camp, as well.  These are facts.  How you interpret them is up to you.

The Q phenomenon started off quietly enough.  Q is purportedly an individual or group close to the president using 8chan to send leads to information ("crumbs") that is publicly available though ignored by the GeezerMedia.  It requires slow dissemination and grass-roots realization to initiate the "Great Awakening," also known as "red pilling," in order to side-step shock and backlash.

If you are a fan of spy novels and you aren't following the Q-Anon story, you are missing probably one of the greatest plots ever conceived.  Honestly, whether you buy into Q-Anon or not, it is addictive.  Are the Black Hats really bad?  Are the White Hats really good?  Do you know what you think you know?  Is Q real?  Does Trump sanction Q?  Will the Deep State actually be sent up the creek in public trials that will make Watergate look like a Sunday picnic?  Stay tuned...!

There are surprising plot twists, shocking revelations and nefarious characters who threaten the entire planet.  There's high technology and boots on the ground.  Answers are hiding directly in front of you, but only future revelations will make the current situation clear.  As Q likes to say, "The future proves the past."  Will the stunning predictions come to pass, or will the whole thing crumble into a footnote of internet history?

I might be tempted to dismiss the whole thing, except that I bought into Clif High's webbots years ago.  As anyone who has followed his work over the years knows, the Secrets Revealed meme has played a starring role in the ALTA reports for more than five years.  The Q phenomenon fits almost perfectly into those predictions, in a way and with language that seems to eerily presage the form and function of Q-Anon.

This is one of the most sophisticated media campaigns I have ever witnessed.  It is entirely free, using open resources on the internet.  It relies entirely on a growing underground of folk "in the know" to take the meme viral.  It appeals to a broad demographic spectrum, who come at it from many varying points of view.  People have invested vast amounts of their own time and money into promoting the phenomenon.  It is, well...at the risk of sounding hyperbolic, one of the most amazing media phenomena I have seen in my 40+ years as a media professional.

If you are a psychologist, sociologist, demographer, marketing/PR professional, cryptographer, MBA, media specialist, or just a fan of human behavior, and you are not following the Q-Anon phenomenon, you are missing what will likely become a case study of mythic proportions that will fill textbooks for years to come.  Viral campaigns of the past only wish they had achieved this kind of interest and devotion.

If you are just joining the fun, don't worry.  The whole thing seems to be building to a huge climax in the near- to mid-term (October Surprise?), and by the time it hits the mainstream, you will have missed much of the "pure" development - before it becomes clouded with truck-loads of academic gobbledy-gook and political spin.

Not No Way, Not No How

UPDATE: Here's a well-done analysis of ballistics in the Las Vegas case.

In high school, I had a trigonometry teacher named Fr. Cylwicki.  He would demonstrate parabolas with a water pistol, both to dramatically show what a parabola was, and to wake us up during the 8am slog through such tedium.

Trigonometry is used to calculate ballistics.  Arrows, bullets, artillery, and even Kim Jong-Un's rockets follow parabolic arcs.

What that has to do with the Las Vegas massacre and Stephen Paddock should become apparent shortly.

As I mentioned in a previous post, I was a competition shooter and a pretty good one, by most accounts.  I won awards and patches and a couple of nice guns, too.

Because of that, I have an intuitive sense of trigonometry.  I hated the class, but I understand the physics of it.  I know how to calculate where an arrow or bullet will go, based on my elevation, wind speed, muzzle speed and other variables.  I also know that one of the hardest shots to make is when the shooter is above the target - even a few feet.

Shooters know that at level, the arrow or bullet will travel in an arc - a parabola - from the muzzle to the target.  Depending on distance, air desity, wind speed, etc., the arrow or bullet will fall slower or faster, depending on these factors.  Even at 100 feet (30 meters) from the target, arrows and bullets will drop a significant amount, all other conditions being perfect.

Non-shooters generally don't know this.  Someone who picks up a gun for the first time with try to aim directly at the bull's eye, and will invariably hit low.  They also won't compensate for recoil, muzzle speed and the like, so the arrow or bullet may end up far to the right of left of center, and significantly below.

That's at the same level as the target.

A figure now called Stephen Paddock, who supposedly had no firearm training, was not known for shooting or even having and interest in it, and who certainly would not have sniper training that included elevated positions, would very likely have no idea how to compensate for all the listed factors in order to target even a large crowd.

Most folks will look at those last two words and think, "How hard can it be to hit thousands of people in a small area with a machine gun?"

Answer: incredibly.

The alleged sniper's nest was on the 32nd floor of a hotel that is 0.7 miles (over half a kilometer) from the venue.  The window is therefore a minimum of 320 feet (90 meters) above eye level, not counting any floors that aren't part of the numbering convention that gives us 32.

At that distance, the entire venue would have been about the size of a bull's eye on a standard target at 100 feet.  Without a very high-powered scope, the sniper would not have been able to see individual souls.

On the night of 1 October 2017, between the hours of 10:05p and 10:15p PDT, according to "official" records.  Sundown was around 5:15p, meaning it was 5 hours after dark.  The minimum temperature that night was 79F/26C, with a maximum humidity of 20%, air pressure was 999hPa, with no measured rain.  Wind speeds were measured at 3.1 miles/second, or 7mph/11kph, out of the South West, with visibility up to 10miles/16km.

Because the window was a minimum of 320 feet/90m up, there would have been a temperature gradient of roughly 5F/10F, meaning the air density would have changed moving downward, from cooler to warmer air.

According to Google Earth, the sniper's nest window faced South East, meaning the wind was from the back, but would likely have had some swirl effect around the edge of the building and into the cavity formed by the two wings.  The wind was blowing across the venue from audience right to audience left, with the stage facing the hotel.  The sniper's nest direct line of fire would have been to the far audience left of the seating area, meaning the shooter would have had to angle a bit to target the direct center of the venue.

So, a direct shot out the window, all other factors aside, would have hit the back left corner of the venue.  A cross wind, even a small one over 0.7 mile, would have hit wide of the venue into the street beyond.  There are no reports I have seen that say bullets landed outside the venue.

In clear, midday conditions, this would be a hell of a shot, even just spraying with a machine gun, at night it would be near impossible but for the best sharp-shooters.  No witnesses mentions tracer rounds (glow in the dark), so the shooter would have to way to confirm what was being hit.  A scope would be almost useless with a machine gun, since the constant jerking back and sweep to the side would make it impossible to look through, not to mention dangerous to one's eye.  The shooter would have no way to verify hits without a spotter (second person to verify hits).

Since I can find no reports of exactly what gun was used in Las Vegas, and the sound matches several that I know of, I can guess at what it was like to fire the rifle.

Machine guns are designed for close-range target suppression, not long range accuracy.  The muzzles expel gasses to the shooter's left, so that the gun automatically sweeps to the right.  The normal way to fire such a gun is to begin on one's left and let the momentum of the gasses carry the muzzle to the right, so that the bullets spread out over an arc.  They are not designed for use in full-auto mode when shooting with precision over long distances.

And 0.7 mile, or more than half a kilometer, is a long distance.

Back to our parabolas.  Since the shooter was supposedly up 320 feet, we can imagine that being the peak in the arc of a parabola.  The shots would fall off rather quickly and if one was aiming at something 0.7 mile away, would hit well short of the target.

Add in a cross-wind at 3.1 miles/second, changing air density, dry conditions (humidity), temperature gradients, low light levels, and very likely a high heart rate and adrenaline causing muscles to quiver,   In addition, the window makes for a small operational area, and the sweeping motion of the machine gun would limit the length of time one could hold the trigger (certainly not the 100+ rounds recorded on audio).

Add up all these factors and you basically have an unbelievably difficult situation for even a weekend warrior.  Certainly 58 kills and 500+ injuries in 10 minutes, given all these factors and variables, would put this shooter in a rare class indeed.  It doesn't sound like anything a millionaire accountant could pull off, even with two weeks' practice in the desert.

More than all the other unbelievable information coming out with the Las Vegas massacre story, this one assumption completely destroys the whole narrative, in my opinion.  Either the shooter was not Stephen Paddock, or what we are told about him is completely false.

And even once we've considered the logistics of using a machine gun at 0.7 mile from the target, there's the matter of the bullets.

You see, with standard ammunition, half a mile is pushing it for most loads, and one mile is about the limit for hot loads.  Most of the energy behind the bullets would have been spent by the time they reached the target, in this case.

Once one begins picking this story apart, the pieces don't add up.

Reality And The Anti-Solution

UPDATE: Photos purportedly showing the "sniper's nest" and arsenal have been "leaked."  It is important to note that none of the guns have more capacity than about 70-round magazines, yet audio recordings clearly indicated more than 100 rounds being fired in non-stop bursts.  This implies belt-fed machine guns, which are not seen in the photos.  Some folks have counted well over 2,000 rounds being fired, which without a belt-fed gun would leave piles of spent brass all over room and likely down on the street.  Clearly the photos are NOT of the actual sniper's nest, the crime scene has been manipulated, and/or there were multiple shooters in different locations.  The next question to ask is ballistics evidence matching rounds to rifles with a clear and believable chain of custody, which will likely never come. [end]

The Las Vegas shooting is a jaw-dropping tragedy.  I can't imagine being the family and friend of a victim.    It is quite bad enough being a detached observer some thousands of miles away.

What makes this tragedy (and the string of them that have come before) so much worse is that there is not a single "authority" figure involved that can be trusted.  The families of the victim can not now, nor will they ever receive a straight answer or a trustworthy investigation.  There is not one "authority" involved that hasn't been compromised and undermined in the past few decades.

Furthermore, with contemporary digital technology that can literally edit reality in real time (commonly called "augmented reality" or AR), not a single bit of video, photo or audio evidence can be trusted - even if the SOURCE is trustworthy.

In effect, no one will ever get a straight answer, groups will polarize over their scenarios, the true perpetrator(s) will continue obfuscating the timeline and evidence, and the end result will be decades - if not centuries - of speculation.

The fact of the matter is that despite whether Stephen Paddock was an accountant who went 'round the bend, or he was a patsy for a nefarious group of actors with an agenda, we will never know.  The "selfie" video of Paddock shooting from the room can easily be manufactured by digitally inserting a face over live video.  Surveillance cam footage from the casinos over the past 10 years could easily be manufactured.  Audio evidence of multiple shooters can easily be manipulated.  In fact, I can do all of that right here on my laptop with the various apps that I use for editing.

The primary investigative agency, the FBI, has been completely compromised since the Obama administration if not before.  The CIA is well-known for running operations like this for political agendas.  The mass media, well, after 2016, anyone that believes anything coming out of their TeeVees is beyond hope.  The US federal government has not been trustworthy since the founding of the country.  The documented use of "crisis actors" in "training" exercises that always seem to coincide with events like this make any scenario questionable.  And, as usual, the central figure who is said to have perpetrated the crime is dead, so no trial will ever present the facts to a jury in court.

Without an actual accused to try, the investigation can be manipulated in a thousand different directions, and the investigation can even be subverted and any narrative inserted, since no lawyers will ever have to present a case with evidence.

In the end, your guess is as good as mine, and the endless string of armchair investigators online are equally as valid (or not) as any other "authority".  It has taken more than 50 years to get the final documents released in the JFK assassination, and even then one of the critical volumes on the perpetrator has "vanished".  We must accept that we will never have a real, definitive answer to this mystery, as every source of information can be questioned.

We are left to believe our own lying eyes.  We can only trust what we can believe, and at this point, I believe no one and nothing.  I am thoroughly convinced that Stephen Paddock did not act alone, if he acted at all, and if he is in fact a real person, which I greatly doubt.  There were very likely multiple shooters, with some on the ground.  The amount of "salted" clues over the past year or so reinforces my conviction that this was yet another psy-op to manipulate people's perceptions, not to mention an occult human sacrifice to whatever gods the Hidden Bastards worship.

In the final analysis, I believe no one and nothing.  I can create my own scenario by looking for common threads within this story, and running through past events.  The symbols are apparent, the actors are obvious, and agenda is clear in my perspective.

It really doesn't matter what I believe to be the Truth.  I could publish my entire scenario and be just another voice out there with a conspiracy theory muddying the waters.  The gentle reader's thoughts and opinions are as valid as mine.

I find it useful to assume events like this are fabricated from beginning to end for whatever purposes the actors have.  In the best case scenario, the real story is high-jacked and manipulated to achieve the same ends.  Whether Stephen Paddock was a real accountant gone wild, or is a completely fabricated ghost identity on whom to place the blame makes no difference in the end.  The real story is that nothing coming from any source who/which calls itself an "authority" can be trusted in any way to deliver the truth.

The real lesson here is that all governments everywhere, and all their associated agencies, ministries and functionaries, cannot be trusted.  The only true authority is our own minds, and they must be guarded very carefully to prevent us from being manipulated.

Believe no one, trust nothing, and create counter-scenarios.

Needle And The Damage Done

UPDATE: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. talks about vaccines and autism.

Yesterday, we had the case of one individual - albeit a very credible one - blowing the proverbial whistle on NOAA "climate change" data manipulation.  Naturally, the debunking machines got into high-gear to discredit Dr. John Bates and control the damage done.

Today's story is a bit harder to sweep under the "conspiracy" rug, since the information comes from the Italian government itself, and involves a large study and paper published on the topic.

The topic is vaccines, and the story is that a government science agency has found toxins, carcinogens and bio-debris of unknown origin in a number of human-rated vaccines.  Furthermore, it appears that animal vaccines have greater purity restrictions than the crud being pumped into people from infancy.

Yesterday, we saw that one of the top science types at NOAA told the world that one of the most trusted climate data agencies around "massaged" date in order to manipulate world leaders into accepting a huge boondoggle whose sole purpose was to institute a global tax scheme that, by default, created a world government.

The Science Sacred Cow that we are about to slaughter the health and well-being of virtually every human being on Earth.  In fact, one of the possible conclusions of the new information is that someone or some group is trying to make the global population mentally incapacitated and quite possibly to "shut off" our lives at roughly the time we are no longer productive enough to significantly add to the global economy.

Lest the reader think that the new information on vaccines is coming from some questionable "conspiracy theory" factory, let's clarify right up front that the source is the National Council of Research of Italy and the Scientific Director of Nanodiagnostics.  The study was published in the Journal of Vaccines and Vaccinations.  Serious study from serious people published in a serious science journal.

According to the paper, the group sampled 44 common vaccines and found that they contained anomalous amounts of heavy metals and "bio-debris", like red blood cells from unknown sources.  The substances found are known carcinogens and toxins, and/or sources of autoimmune dysfunction.

Let that sink in for a moment.

The study also noted that some samples of animal vaccines from France were purer due to strict regulations that control drugs for livestock, but not for humans.

Let that sink in for another moment.

There is a whole laundry list of metals that are known or suspected of causing mental impairments, such as Alzheimer's and autism.  All of them are bio-accumulative, hard to flush out of the body and have additional toxicity when combined.

Some more sinking.

If this information doesn't piss you the hell off, then please go immediately to a doctor and have your pulse and blood pressure checked.  You may be dead already.

Ladies and gentlemen, not only are these vaccines being pushed on us - in some cases under penalty of law - for massive profits, there may well be a provable case here for malice aforethought with intent to poison humanity for some nefarious end.

Sink...sink...sink.

This is beginning to sound like the plot from Tim Burton's Batman, where the Joker has seeded toxins across a range of products, so that any one of them is harmless, but in combination cause serious health problems, including death.

Sink-a-roo.

At the very least, Big Pharma stands accused this moment of criminal neglect, absent proof of intent.  They have obviously poisoned a significant amount of humanity by not taking the necessary steps to ensure clean, safe products.  If malicious intent could be proved, this is nothing short of a massive conspiracy to poison all of humanity.

Sinkage.

I do not think I overstate the case when I say that we are collectively under attack by a group or groups with a death wish for humanity that is so callous as to want to profit off their efforts.  We are being manipulated mentally and physically in the way cattle or crops are manipulated, so that we produce a product (money, labor) and then die off when we are no longer useful.

Both the climate data manipulation and the vaccine contamination stories have been neatly slid under the carpet of the news cycle.  The information has been quietly laid out in the public domain in such a way as to provide plausible deniability.  "Gosh," they could say, "we released the information, but no one acted on it, so we just let it slide."

If all you've done is read my two columns, you should at least feel your pulse quicken and your blood pressure rise.  If you've clicked through to look at the links, then you should be taking stock of your ammo supply about now.

These are absolutely stunning revelations.  We have (provably) been lied to, manipulated and treated with the most cynical hands of real-life conspirators.  On top of that, the deception has been going on for at least the past 50 years of stabs, jabs and climate panic.

We now have objective proof in our hands that some number of individuals and organizations are out to get us.  At the very least, we have solid grounds to question the motives of government agencies and corporations.  The very foundations of science and transparent reporting by agencies and media are seriously eroded, like a certain dam in California, and we should all be in the process of evacuating.  We are no longer able to brush these issues aside as "tin foil conspiracies".

Now, the questions is, what are we going to do about it?

Offense Or Defense?

Well, it appears that Dallas is once again the center of a major sniper attack.  This further confirms my contention that the Red River should be re-routed south of the city and the whole mess conceded to Oklahoma.

More to the point, though, there is a deep, steaming pile of bullshit around this shooting.  Half the folks are blaming the cops, the other half are blaming this or that race or group or ideology.  I have a rather different take on things (surprise!).

I had a cousin who was a cop, now retired.  In the line of duty, he never once drew his gun in 20+ years of service.  Of course, this was back in the days when cops wore button-down shirts, trousers and in street clothes, looked like any other person in a crowd.

Nowadays, cops in the US wear black para-military uniforms, shave their heads and treat every individual and situation as a terrorist threat.  In addition, most cops now are former military and don't understand civilian law enforcement.  Not that they are supposed to, though.  The government now considers all civilians a threat and acts accordingly.  With a bunch of trigger-happy paranoid soldiers doing civil patrol, it's no wonder people are getting shot right and left.

And no, it's not a white or black thing.  That is a media lie designed to get everyone fighting each other while the "rulers" hide the sausage in the halls of power.  I even read one article that claimed the NRA (National Rifle Association) weren't jumping up and down about the Castile killing because, even though the man was licensed to carry a gun, he was black and the white cop was acting out of racist prejudices.

Good lord.  What a lost society America has.  I don't remember the NRA jumping up and down over Waco either, and that was a bunch of white folks who had licenses to manufacture guns being bar-b-qued by white FBI and BATF federales.

As much as the media are trying to make all this a "race" thing, the truth is it's a police training issue.  They are told they are at war on the streets and are trained to be so paranoid that they will shoot you for scratching your nose the wrong way.  Doesn't matter what color you are.  Hell, I've had a "black" cop draw down on me and damn near shoot me because I laughed at him, simply because I drove an extra 100 meters to get off a major road and onto a quiet and safer back street, instead of stopping and surrendering to his "authority" the minute his lights came on (I beat the ticket too).  It was a pure power trip on his part and had nothing to do with colors.

A large number of US cops today are war veterans who don't have many other options when it comes to jobs.  Amazingly, there's just not a lot of positions for trained killers who don't know much else.  Furthermore, the rules of combat are much different from civilian law enforcement, but these people are given military weapons, armor and taught that everyone is out to get them.  This is trouble waiting to happen.

In fact, many people suspect, as do I, that this is the plan.  "Civil unrest" is easily used as an excuse to curtail liberty and inhibit freedom.  It's a very old tactic.  The Romans used it.  The Nazis used it.  The US is using it.  All empires, in their dying days, become paranoid and start causing problems in order to justify clamp-downs on domestic populations, because it's just easier than worrying about all these damn liberties.

One could argue rather easily that this militarization of civilian law enforcement has been in the planning and execution phases for a long time.  Huge military build-ups under Reagan, followed by endless wars starting with Bush I have produced a large number of ex-military who are then funneled into civilian policing.  The militarization of the police then creates an equal/opposite reaction in the populace, which tensions bound to boil over at some point.  Especially with paranoid trigger-happy cops shooting everything in sight.

This is not a matter of "white" cops shooting "black" citizens.  It's a matter of all cops shooting all citizens because they've been trained to react that way, first in the military, then on the beat.  It doesn't help that government is making everything, including breathing (produces CO2), illegal.

To all of this, add TeeVee shows like COPS and all the rest that glamorize this behavior and condition folks to accepting lawlessness and over-heated responses as normal.  Top it all off with media that loves sensation and blood and guts to draw eyeballs, and you have a potent stew of conflicting goals clashing on the streets of Dallas.

Now, for the real conspiracy buffs out there, any reason not to think that the Dallas snipers were positioned by federal agencies at a Black Lives Matter rally to stir up racial division and promote gun control?

The Second Amendment to the US Constitution made it a sacred right of the people to own firearms, because every man was supposed to be trained to fight, should the country ever be invaded.  The other part of the concept was to ensure that the people had the ability to defend themselves from out-of-control governments.

As difficult as it is to admit it, wern't the Dallas shootings really just citizens protecting themselves from tyrannical government?

Time to start asking the tough questions, don't you think?

By the way, go read 18 USC 521, and compare the federal legal definition of "street gangs" to what we generally see of cops in the US.  Makes for an interesting thought experiment.
