Gil Scott-Heron - The Revolution Will Not Be Televised

Saturday, February 5, 2011

The days blend along. Not woven just bleed together.

How many times did I pass thru the looking glass before I realized that what I once knew as truth was nothing but a series of fabrications. Designed to lull everyone into a trance. Now that e trance is broken have I merely changed seats on an already sinking ship? Is this simply another trance yet broken?

Was asked the other day… “Do you believe in miracles?” Response: “After all the crud I have done to myself over the years and had happen to me… and I get asked that question? The fricken miracle is I still get to answer it! Uhh that would be "yes.”

The last time I was that much of a daredevil I dared the devil. Pfft! Silly devil was a wanker. I was not impressed. You could say I poured a glass of ice water all over his sorry butt.
 
                              **I like options. It helps me dither with out too much guilt.**
 
Was asked the other day… “What do you think of the bible?” Response: “I have no problem with the book. The problem is those who read from this particular collection of stories and spread their ‘interpretation‘ of it. I see them as a Bible distortionist. Read it for your self make up your own mind.”

Rather than bicker about what side said what etc. etc. How about confront the truth? Perhaps when the hungry out number the pacified. After seeing something such as this I wonder why governments would think of controlling the internet? Bah no matter I still got cable.

Natural selection? Thinning of the herd, hmm??? Perhaps not what is next but rather, whom? Who?

Saw on the news the other night that blame has been assigned for the BP oil disaster. Whoopee! No surprise about who did it. The point is lost when looking for blame. The point is to not let it happen again and is there a way to clean up the mess?

It will be many years or generations before all the data is in. I think the birds & the fish could very well be the result of the toxic sludge. Not only from the gulf but as stated above, from all the toxic ways of living that gets belched into the air and water everyday.

After wiping out indigenous peoples that were in tune with living with earth. The past assassins handed their offspring a legacy of greed and destruction. Blindly many followed their greedy lessons and now those that sit in positions of wealth and pull the strings continue to turn their eyes and ears away from their responsibility. They will write a check for pennies on the dollar, to the figure heads that sit on boards of confusion and regulation, when it is over.

Mean while a gallon of fuel will go up in price. While all the goods and services go up because of the ever rising fuel costs. Figure heads will talk tough to pacify those who could potentially organize and rise up to the ruling class. It is a juggling act that they are very good at.

The fact is we just do not know as of yet. But if we don’t ponder and think that it is simply all cleaned up and all over scares some including me more than anything.
A mess of that magnitude does not just go away. Like it, disagree with it or not where did all that oil go? It was absorbed by not just the skimmers.

I understand the skepticism. I do. But when one begins to see how things are all interconnected it can be rather daunting. To suggest that the spill, the multiple days of the crude being pumped into the gulf waters had little nor any long lasting effect seems rather simple. Sometimes life is simply not that simple. I wish it was.

***
Not sure. I don’t recall hearing as much as I did that annoying unfinished sentence, “Just saying…” Saying what for crying out loud. Jeebus finish the fricken sentence.

Another couple of phrases that is tired to me that is… “Really?” “Seriously?” When ever those phrases get tossed in my direction I wonder why is it they are asking that? If I start to explain they usually cut me off and say… “Yeah, yeah, I know, I believe it’s just… Really???”

***
True story… Had this “high” school teacher who was probably in his mid 30’s this was back in the early eighties. He got rather annoyed with me. (no surprise I know) I was, shall we say not very punctual for his class. In his attempt to set me on the right path he said one day… “Mr. Hutchins you obviously can tell time, I know this because judging by your state of mind you are never late to meet the person who is selling you the marijuana that you always seem to smell of when ever you are late for my class. Now stop being late you have no excuse, your watch obviously is working.” This was prior to Nancy Reagan’s “Just say no” stuff. “High” school it mostly went up in smoke.

Hand me the remote got some catch up to with that show about real housewives.

PT. 2 of what rights do sexual predators have?

It should be noted that after some further checking. These “criminals” are treated differently than the other prisoners. In some cases here in the state of Washington they are segregated from the general population. I call Nonsense! Let them mingle with the other prisoners for the 30 years that I suggested be imposed.

Why would the state be taking extra precautions for these criminals? If a convicted marijuana dealer has to mingle with the general population let the sexual predators mingle as well.

Where the hell is the GOP on this issue why are they not outraged? As opposed to attempting to re-define the meaning of rape.

Geeezum Crow on a corn dog! Where is the right wing on this? These convicted sexual predators are being handled with extra protection from the tax payers. Where is the outrage?

Sexual predators… What rights do they have?

I am opposed to violence... However in dealing with sexual predators… What would you suggest? How about this?

Once convicted first offense should be a minimum of 30 years to life. No option for parole. No parole hearings nothing the convicted does the thirty years. Before any possibility of a parole board hearing. With the possibility that the convicted may not get paroled.

Wesley Allen Dodd said before his execution, that he resorted to killing his victims to avoid capture so that he would stop having to deal with going to more rehabilitation courses. He said the courses were of no use. So his logic took him to the next level of abuse against his victims. Wesley Allen Dodd’s story should be required reading for anyone asking questions that pertain to this subject. It truly revealed how the mind of a predator works. Chilling, sobering, it pushed all the B.S. aside. He called out all the predators onto the carpet with his confessions. He clearly pointed out that the system failed and is flawed. Hence why after one conviction… See ya’ in 30 years ‘if’ you survive prison.

If the convicted sexual predator does manage to serve the thirty years and gets out and is convicted a second time. Life without the possibility for parole. End of story. Debating the death penalty is tiresome due to the fact that the death penalty simply will not prevent anything. That has been proven. Simply look at the murder rate. Not to mention that it allows the predator an out.

The problem is almost all sexual predators are simply wired wrong. They can not be trusted nor expected to change who they are. Anymore than one could tell me I was to change my sexual orientation because tomorrow it will be against the law. Absolute nonsense… Think about it for a minute, your sexual orientation is now against the law tomorrow. So how do you shut off the mechanism in your brain that dictates what you are sexually aroused by. See what I am getting at?

I am not passing any judgment on consenting adults. Adults means over the age of 18. That does mean that woman who go after under age boys are subject to the same guidelines. Across the board once concessions start being made based on gender we go back to the ineffective system that allows predators to roam free in society.

Just to clear this up and to point it out again. “No” “Stop” “Don’t” is not to be ignored. Once it is said out loud it is no longer two consenting adults. It has changed to a crime... The consequences for that crime need to be harsh. Otherwise the passive system of justice will continue to look the other way. The victim will be minimized again and again. Resulting in fear to even report the crime.

The notion that a rape victim was asking to be traumatized is absolutely appalling to me. Nobody asks to be tortured. I am not sure what is worse the notion that the victim asked for it or the people who suggest it and believe it. That sounds like the rationalization the predator makes prior to their victimizing the object of their abuse.

So it is my humble, along with outraged opinion that sexual predators have no place in society. The idea that laws could be relaxed on the definition of rape should have the citizens in the street. We should be crying out for stricter laws that put sexual predators away and out of society. There simply is no excuse for a so called civilized society to allow the leniency that the laws currently do. It is absolute madness.

If you’re a parent what would you do if your child was attacked? What if your partner / spouse was attacked? A relative? A friend? Would you truly think that the attacker should be allowed a pass, or two, three, four?

If you think I am not being very compassionate, please note I did not suggest torturing the predator nor did I suggest killing them. I suggested removing them from free society. After all what freedoms should a sexual predator have any way. They demonstrate time and time again that they have no regard for their victims freedom.

So all the reports of sea life washing ashore, birds dropping out of the sky… Is anyone asking if this could be a bit of cause and effect from the worst ecological disaster last year down there in the gulf? Nah, couldn’t be… Hand me the remote got some catch up to with that show about real housewives.
