I'm not sure, America?... but it feels as though somethings gotta pop here soon.... that's the feeling I have anyway.
I would be tremendously surprised that anything will happen. What's happening with 9-11? What will America wait for if we haven't done anything
bout THAT??? No disrespect to ya, my friend, you're dreaming.
The last time, as I remember, anyone had the guts in the USA to fight for an American cause (other than the lies of war) were those in South Central
LA. Right or wrong, they put it out!
Those, who while in Vietnam refused certain orders. That's guts!
Unfortunately, few Americans think out of the box. They are afraid of what people will say & consequences, still. When a country has an uprising,
they call it savage. Well, folks, pay the consequences. Our American Order is seen as weakness by the powers that be. So, here we are in our own
fine mess!
Short story: 1960s, Caracas, Venezuela. City Municipality wanted to place parking meters in a city which was extremely compressed, full of cars.
People said "NO". The Municipality saw fit to continue with the project and installed the meters. I think it was that same night, THE PEOPLE
showed up with tools and removed them. Whether it was right or wrong, it was a matter of principle. People did not want meters.
HOW CAN IT COST MORE THAN THE MEDIAN INCOME IN THE USA TO KEEP A PRISIONER? WHAT DOES A PRISIONER NEED CABLE TV FOR? AIR CONDITIONING? SORRY, UNTIL
EVERY AMERICAN CAN AFFORD THOSE LUXURIES.........I THINK THAT A PRISION BUDGET SHOULD BE PAR WITH THE POOR OR THE STANDARD OUR SOLDIERS HAVE TO
EXPERIENCE IN THE DESERT. TO ME, THEY ARE THERE TO PAY A DEBT TO SOCIETY. (caps just for emphasis, not shouting)
Anyone remember Hammurabi's Code? It reduces life to the simplest of laws. "An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. "The RHETORIC created in
the name of Religion and Human Rights is just a smoke screen to capitlize on the ignorance of the majority.
