Why? BECAUSE THAT’S THE WAY WE ARE!

Posted In: A Dose Of Reality, Big Brother, Media Bias

It can cause us to be crazier than “normal”

Whenever I hear someone describe themselves, or others as “crazy”, I always reply with:

“We’re all crazy. It’s just that most of us bother to hide it from others and don’t act on our craziness.”

I’m not impressed by some idiot trying to get my attention by telling me how crazy they are.

WE’RE ALL CRAZY.

That’s one of the things that makes the world go ’round.

One of the craziest things we do is completely believing in fairy tales. You know….

“The world is a beautiful place, full of good people and beauty. Full of goodness and goodwill towards men.”

While that might be true, it also contains streets made of cold, hard concrete. Ugly streets full of ugly people who will shaft you for a nickel. People who are cruel because they enjoy being cruel.

Look for beauty

So…..

Your outlook depends on what you look for when you venture out into the world each day.

Do you look for beauty? Or do you look for the darker and uglier side of the world?

An ideal mix, I suppose, would be to look for beauty and to always be aware of the ugliness that exists out there. That way, your world isn’t shattered when you’re exposed to just how ugly the world can be.

Why does ugliness and evil exist?

Because we’re human and all crazy. Some of us are not crazy in a “good way”. Some people are just plain evil crazy. Watch out for those people.

Of course, these are all lessons we should have learned growing up.

As kids, we’re innocent. Then, reality sets in

As kids, we believe the fairy tales and as we age, we begin to realize there isn’t always a happy ending. Sometimes you don’t live “Happily ever after.”

But, we still hope at least part of our fairy tales remain true.

That’s why when some idiot, or group of idiots commit a crime (such as the Marathon bombing) so heinous that we can’t seem to wrap our heads around the evil of it all, we ask the question:

WHY?……

I read this today and thought I’d repost it here……..

“Why?” My questions is this…. Why do we always want to know “Why?”

What possible reason could make bombing and killing innocents acceptable? Asking “Why” gives validity to whatever argument these scumbags have rattling around in their skulls.

Why? Because sometimes our fairy tales can go horribly wrong and since there’s no rhyme or reason for it, we search for an explanation when there isn’t one. People are just crazy

How many times have you personally watched a situation unfolding where innocents are slaughtered and the “compassionate” among us and the media asks “Why?”.

Once that happens we see a progression of excuses and allowances made for a person or a groups actions.

I do not care that these two boys are possibly of the Muslim faith, I do not care if they are terrorists, I do not care if it is a father that abuses his child or wife, I do not care that it is a mother that allows her child to starve to feed her drug habit.

The only thing I can see these people have in common, all of these abusers, rapists, murderers and terrorists, is that they are all narcissists in that they believe their own thoughts, feelings, world view or religion is more important than anyone else’s right to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness.

Is this the only way to eliminate craziness in the gene pool? Heck, we’d all get a turn

Screw them all. I do not want to know why. Put them down like the rabid dog they are, turn off the cameras and never mention their names again. Cremate them and spread their ashes in the holding tanks of a sewage plant.

End of story.
This is my opinion and of course will be dissected and spit upon and I really don’t care.

Want to know “Why?”? Because anyone that would make ANY kind of excuse for someone or some group guilty of killing or abusing of innocents is a part of the problem and not part of the solution and thus a waste of my time.

Calico Blackie says:

Adios, Jamie Dimon! But, the world is full of them

When is killing our fellow human beings justifiable? Is it when they’ve proven themselves detrimental to the well-being of society? If that were the case, shouldn’t we be taking out all the banksters on Wall Street?

Is killing justifiable when a person, or persons become a threat to all of our physical well being?

Is killing justifiable when a person, or group of persons become predators, preying upon society?

So, maybe the question isn’t “Why?”

Maybe we should decide “When is violence justifiable?”

Oh, by the way, speaking of predators in groups preying on society….

Did anyone notice this?

Cispa bill on cyber security passed by the US House

Getting closer every day. But, we’ll be SAFER!

The US House of Representatives has passed the controversial Cyber Information Sharing and Protection Act.

Cispa is designed to help combat cyberthreats by making it easier for law enforcers to get at web data.

This is the second time Cispa has been passed by the House. Senators threw out the first draft, saying it did not do enough to protect privacy.

Cispa could fail again in the Senate after threats from President Obama to veto it over privacy concerns.

A substantial majority of politicians in the House backed the bill.

The law is passing through the US legislative system as American federal agencies warn that malicious hackers, motivated by money or acting on behalf of foreign governments, such as China, are one of the biggest threats facing the nation.

“If you want to take a shot across China’s bow, this is the answer,” said Mike Rogers, the Republican politician who co-wrote Cispa and chairs the House Intelligence Committee.

Keep believing the fairy tales! But, don’t listen to me. I’m a conspiracy “nut”! You know….CRAZY

Cispa has also secured the backing of several technology firms, including the CTIA wireless industry group, as well as the TechNet computer industry lobby group, which has Google, Apple and Yahoo as members. By contrast, the social news website Reddit has been vocal in its opposition to the bill. In March, Facebook said it no longer supported Cispa.

The bill could fail again in the Senate after the Obama administration’s threat to use its veto unless changes were made. The White House wants amendments so more is done to ensure the minimum amount of data is handed over in investigations.

The American Civil Liberties Union has also opposed Cispa, saying the bill was “fatally flawed”. The Electronic Frontier Foundation, Reporters Without Borders and the American Library Association have all voiced similar worries.

Cispa’s authors say existing amendments have addressed many of the criticisms and more oversight was being given to data before it was handed over.

Waste of money. They’re great for finding your body after the act, but we’re not any safer

Calico Blackie says:

So, you see…..

The government CAN get things done when they want to get things done.

Are we safer now? Do you feel better about our government now? Do you still believe in fairy tales?

Then, you’ll believe the government passes laws such as these to protect us.

Here’s another good one that has been flying under the radar these days…..

IRS tells agents it can snoop on emails without warrant, internal documents show

The Internal Revenue Service believes it doesn’t need permission to root through emails, texts or other forms of electronic correspondence, according to recently released internal agency documents.

Is it when they’ve proven themselves detrimental to the well-being of society?

The documents, which were obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request by the American Civil Liberties Union, reveal that tax department agents have been operating under the assumption that they can bypass warrants. The ACLU claims this would in turn violate the Fourth Amendment.

According to a 2009 IRS employee handbook, though, the tax agency said the Fourth Amendment does not protect emails because Internet users don’t “have a reasonable expectation of privacy in such communications.”

A lawyer for the agency reiterated the policy in 2010. And the current online version of the IRS manual says that no warrant is required for emails that are stored by an Internet storage provider for more than 180 days.

Calico Blackie says:

It ain’t the gun. It’s the fact we’re all crazy

Well, hey. I don’t know about you, but I feel much safer now!

Maybe we’ll all be safer when our government stops pussyfooting around and tells us the fairy tale is all a sham, and makes their police state official.

It won’t even be any fun to say: “I told you so”.

But, don’t worry!

We still have our GUNZ! (for now)

Gun vote shows gulf between Washington, country

After the proposal to expand background checks as a part of gun legislation failed to win enough votes in the Senate Wednesday, President Obama expressed his disappointment and said this is “only the beginning” to pushing for reform.

If there was ever a moment that symbolized the difference between the power of public opinion and the strength of a concerted minority, it came Wednesday when the Senate defeated a bipartisan measure to expand background checks on gun purchases.

This asshole signed NDAA and pushed through other legislation restricting our freedom, and he calls his failure to get Congress to dismantle the Constitution “shameful”? FUCK HIM AND HIS DUMMY TOO

By the time the vote took place, the outcome was expected. Nonetheless, the result was stunning, as was made clear by the angry reaction of President Obama, who had invested so much capital on getting gun legislation passed after the shootings in Newtown, Conn., only to see those efforts crushed on the legislation’s first real test.

Obama’s description — “a pretty shameful day for Washington” — captured the moment and summed up the frustrations that many ordinary Americans long have expressed about the capital, which is that the system appears tilted in favor of blocking action on important, if controversial, issues rather than enacting legislation to deal with them.

It was a defeat as well for the victims’ relatives, men and women who have walked the halls of Congress and spoken out passionately for action.

We’re told to worry about GUNZ while we’re being crushed. But, gun control will make us SAFE! Yeah, believe the fairy tale

It was a defeat for former congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords (D-Ariz.), who was nearly killed in a shooting in 2011 and who joined in the lobbying effort. They were at the White House with Obama and Biden after the vote, a tableau of hopes crushed.

Calico Blackie says:

Screw them and screw their misguided hopes too. What is shameful is how those cocksucker politicians cynically used victims of violence to further their own agendas of oppression.

But, enough about GUNZ and BOMBS….

What else are we reading about that is SO important?

Oh, yeah…..

SEX! WOOHOO!

Two female Long Island teachers pulled from classroom for ‘inappropriate contact with football player and wrestler’

Here’s one of the tarts now! Maybe we can get Homeland Security on it?

Sources told the New York Post that the girlfriend of one of the high school students found a text from a teacher on his phone.

The girlfriend then alerted the school’s principal, John Dolan, the sources said.

The Post notes that it’s unclear whether Newton-McNally and Ackerberg actually engaged in physical behavior with the two seniors, or if they exchanged inappropriate text messages.

Police in Suffolk County have not been contacted, as both the students in question are over the age of consent.

Students told the Post that they were shocked that their two teachers could have engaged in inappropriate behavior with the two students.

‘It’s just hard to believe this stuff goes on,’ one student tweeted. ‘I’m really hoping that there isn’t anything and it’s chatter.’

Both of the students, who sources say are a wrestler and a football player, both have girlfriends, sources said.

Calico Blackie says:

Taylor Swift’s ass. Why are we so hypnotized every time a celeb gets caught with his or her pants down when we can all get a better show at the beach? Why? We’re all crazy!

We’re fascinated with sex and violence and yet we’re constantly worried about our safety. We can’t seem to get enough of lurid sex stories and bleeding news coverage.

Why?

Because we’re ALL crazy.

And maybe that’s what makes us human.

AND…..

Maybe we’re misguided too? Maybe we believe what we’re told without question or analysis?

For instance…..

I’ve been half-heartedly following the “Gays in the Boy Scouts” stories for awhile and I’ve never been able to understand the root causes of all the homophobia that seems to grip our country. Is it because homophobic people are actually repressed homosexuals who have been denying their biological instincts all their lives?

I mean, think about it.

They can have all the guys they want. I’ll take Kari Byron and her GUNZ!

I’ve ALWAYS wished that 90% of the male population was GAY AS LIBERACE!

It certainly would have given a wart-hog like me a much better chance with the ladies “back in the day”!!

But, enough pontificating.

I’ve got yardwork to do.

The Sex, Violence and Gays will just have to wait for me another day.

In the meantime….

Not all fairy tales are lies.

Stay crazy!

KEEP THE FAITH

WHY WE SHOULD GIVE A DAMN

by Calico Blackie on February 26, 2013 at 3:07 pm

Posted In: A Dose Of Reality, Media Bias

Have we been wrong all these years?

I’ve been hearing “Who gives a damn?” more often lately when I discuss current events and politics with young people I know.

The last time I mentioned “Occupy” in a conversation, I was told: “Who cares? People are sick of Occupy. It’s old news.”

There’s too many distractions going on around us for us to focus on the issues. Instead, it’s as if we’re becoming a nation of ADHD addled idiots and it seems as if we like it that way.

Immediate gratification and a short attention span is the norm these days.

This photo of Maggie Trudeau (First Lady of Canada) caused a small scandal in the late 60s. Could you imagine the media circus if the media got a photo such as this of Michelle Obama today?

We get fed a steady diet of bullshit news that doesn’t matter, yet it’s dressed up by the media as if it’s important.

We’re allowing ourselves to be stupefied.

Most of us spend much of our time being so distracted by the meaningless shit in life that we forget to live our own life as it happens and we miss it.

Anyway, that’s the end of the sermon for today.

Let’s see what’s in the news.

Here’s an item from the Ministry of the Fucking Obvious……..

Not-so-golden years: Over 75, burdened by debt

The golden years are supposed to be a time when you can live off the wealth you’ve accumulated over a lifetime, not feel like you have to take on more debt to make ends meet.

But new research shows that Americans ages 75 and over appear to have grown more burdened by debt in recent years, and experts say a likely culprit is medical expenses.

Calico Blackie says:

THIS is how the medical industry and the banksters see you and when you’re empty, you’re useless

What a surprise! Don’t people realize that today’s system is designed to bleed a person as dry as possible before they’re kicked to the curb?

It’s not just medical expenses.

It’s also the upward spiraling high cost of living that keeps going skyward every year you’re alive.

What seemed to be a good pension or retirement fund 30 years ago doesn’t even amount to a poverty-level allowance these days.

The article continues with:

A new analysis of government data, released earlier this month by the Employee Benefit Research Institute, found that between 2007 and 2010 people who are 75 and older were more likely to have debt, and their average debt levels increased significantly.

Link is here: http://lifeinc.today.com/_news/2013/02/26/17090279-not-so-golden-years-over-75-burdened-by-debt?lite

Calico Blackie says:

All I can say is if I’m lucky enough to make it to 75 and if my wife goes before I do, the credit companies had better just watch out.

By the time I’m reading this book, I won’t care about my credit rating OR my debt load!

You see….

I never had kids and there would be nobody left for them to go after when I die with that BIG smile on my face, knowing that I stiffed ‘em all!

I just wonder how many of those debt ridden over 75′s out there still think they live in the greatest country in the world and dismissed the Occupiers as “dirty hippies“ when Zuccotti Park was in fashion?

I wonder how many of them will still blame whoever happens to be the President when they hit their decrepitude, instead of blaming a SYSTEM THAT IS DESIGNED TO WRING EVERY LAST DROP OF BLOOD OUT OF YOU in the name of maximum profit?

I wonder how many of them will say: “I thought I’d adequately prepared for my retirement years, but found out I wasn’t expecting the cost of EVERYTHING to go up so high” when some smug asshole tells them:

This is how I feel when some asshole starts talking about “poor decisions in life”!

“You made poor decisions in life and you should’ve saved more and prepared more“?

HOW CAN YOU SAVE WHEN IT TAKES EVERY STINKING DIME YOU MAKE JUST TO KEEP YOUR HEAD ABOVE WATER?

I’m not talking about “the little extras” and “luxuries”. I’m talking about SURVIVAL. Rent, food, clothes, transportation, etc.

But, oh well…..

Why should we give a damn?

Because, someday we’ll all be that old and if things keep going the way they are going, there will be no more “dirty hippies” left to care enough to help you out.

Speaking of poor decisions……

I hear the SS is going to lay off some of their people!

JPMorgan Chase to cut up to 4,000 jobs in 2013

JPMorgan Chase & Co plans to cut 3,000 to 4,000 jobs in its consumer bank in 2013, representing about 1.5 percent of the company’s overall workforce, as the bank tries to improve the profitability of its branches.

Here’s those bank employees before the layoffs were announced welcoming Jamie Dimon when he walked in to the room

The cuts will come mainly through attrition, spokeswoman Kristin Lemkau said. The bank’s branches have 63,500 employees, representing about a quarter of JPMorgan Chase’s total employees.

JPMorgan is one of the few big U.S. banks that is still adding branches to its network, but…

to boost profit it plans to scale back the tellers it has on hand for routine transactions…..

and to add some salespeople for products and services like wealth management that can boost revenue.

The net effect will be to reduce staff per branch by 20 percent through 2015, the company’s head of consumer banking, Ryan McInerney, said in a presentation to investors.

Here’s one of the laid-off tellers being escorted off the premises after the bank was through with her

In JPMorgan Chase’s mortgage business, the company reiterated its previously announced plans to shed 13,000 to 15,000 jobs by 2014.

The bank is hoping to focus on selling more to wealthy depositors.

Calico Blackie says:

FUCK ‘EM. GOOD ON THEM. I feel about as sorry for a laid off JP Morgan employee as I would for a laid off Nazi concentration camp guard or secretary. THEY’RE THE ONES WHO MAKE IT POSSIBLE FOR THE BANKSTER’S MACHINERY TO KEEP RUNNING.

They can all just go fuck themselves.

Yet, why should we give a damn?

Because we still accept the excuse of “I need a job and the banksters were hiring. I’m not guilty. I was only doing my job (just following orders).

Oh, then there was this little gem in the news this morning…..

South Africa study finds donkey meat sold as beef

Truth in advertising? It’s a thing of the past. Deception is what’s now in vogue

A study published by the local Stellenbosch University found that 99 of 139 samples contained species not declared in the product label.

It found soya and gluten were not labelled in 28% of products tested, undeclared pork in 37% and chicken in 23%

This was mostly in sausages, burger patties and deli meats, it said.

The disclosure comes at a time of a growing scandal in Europe about horsemeat being sold as beef.

On Monday, Swedish company Ikea withdrew meatballs from sale in 14 European countries after tests in the Czech Republic found traces of horsemeat in a batch made in Sweden.

Leading supermarkets in the UK, including Tesco and Sainsbury, have also withdrawn beef products from shelves after they were found to contain horsemeat.

Link is here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-21588575

Calico Blackie says:

Why should we give a damn?

Because we’re being consistently lied to and nobody seems to care. The shit Monsanto is feeding us is one hell of a lot worse than ass meat. Can you imagine what’s in OUR food?

And, finally……

6 Leaking Tanks Are Hanford Nuke Site’s Latest Woe

“IT’S PERFECTLY SAFE. THERE IS NO CAUSE FOR ALARM”

Federal and state officials say six underground tanks holding a brew of radioactive and toxic waste are leaking at the country’s most contaminated nuclear site in south-central Washington, raising concerns about delays for emptying the aging tanks.

The leaking materials at Hanford Nuclear Reservation pose no immediate risk to public safety or the environment because it would take perhaps years for the chemicals to reach groundwater, Washington Gov. Jay Inslee said Friday.

But the news has renewed discussion over delays for emptying the tanks, which were installed decades ago and are long past their intended 20-year life span.

“None of these tanks would be acceptable for use today. They are all beyond their design life.”

“None of them should be in service,” said Tom Carpenter of Hanford Challenge, a Hanford watchdog group.

“And yet, they’re holding two-thirds of the nation’s high-level nuclear waste.”

Calico Blackie says:

Why should we give a damn?

We should give a damn because this is the only planet we’ve got.

THIS IS “GIVING A DAMN”!! THIS IS WHAT WE NEED TO DO!!

When the banksters and their minions/politicians have destroyed enough of this earth so that they then retreat to their private and unspoiled islands or lands with their millions, leaving us to wallow around in an irradiated and polluted cesspool, there will be nothing left for us or left for our descendants.

Wall Street will have done it all for the dollar…..

AND THEY DON’T GIVE A DAMN.

That’s why we should give a damn.

WE ARE THE ONES WHO SHOULD GIVE A DAMN BECAUSE WALL STREET AND THEIR WHOLLY-OWNED SUBSIDIARY IN WASHINGTON DC SURE AS HELL DOESN’T GIVE A DAMN ABOUT US.

Do you give a damn?

FAITH, NUTS & DYING IN THE SADDLE: IS YOUR GOD MONEY?

by Calico Blackie on January 31, 2013 at 2:07 pm

Posted In: A Dose Of Reality, Big Brother, Bread and Circuses for the Masses, Divided We Fall, Media Bias

Thanks, Cindi. You’re SUPER!

First off….

I’d like to take a moment to thank Cindi for all she has done to help me with “the struggle” and also to thank her for her tenacity in doing her best to “get the word out” to everyone.

She’s probably one of the few people who actually read this website.

Or, at least it feels that way sometimes.

Anyway…..

A link to her excellent webpage is here:

http://exiledinhollywood.blogspot.com/

Moving on….

Quite awhile back, I was having a political discussion with someone I hadn’t seen in over 30 years. Someone who had married a rich Englishman, moved to England, affected a British accent, and now thinks her very British shit doesn’t stink.

She constantly touted the superiority of the English, and casted aspersions on all things American.

Little does she realize that with the caste system they have “across the pond”, she will never be among the aristocracy because she wasn’t born into it.

Little does she realize that she’s probably laughed at behind her back by the REAL aristocrats who see her in the same light that an American hayseed would look at a cute sheep.

A farm animal. Maybe good for a screw, but nothing more.

Anyway……

It’s always easier to be a skeptic than it is to think for yourself and do some research

She was really down on the “Occupiers” for being “crybabies” and argued that the protesters should just “get a job” and “pull themselves up by their bootstraps” because protesting on Wall Street was pointless.

She said, that if they wanted to protest, they should be protesting in Washington, DC.

Sound familiar?

Well, I tried to point out to her that the REAL seat of control is Wall Street and not DC.

I said: “It’s pretty darned hard to pull yourself up when all the bootstraps are now made in China due to the maximum profit mentality that has poisoned our society to death.”

She laughed and dismissed me as a “Conspiracy Theorist.”

I changed tactics and pointed out to her that during the early years of WWII, the English Government finally went broke trying to finance their fight against Hitler.

Do you think Jamie Dimon really gives a shit who is in charge of the government?

The Bank of England wasn’t going to loan the government any more money to fight the war, and The Bank was going to let Hitler win.

These are facts that can be researched.

I said, “So you see, whoever controls the cash, inevitably controls the world.”

She smugly dismissed the facts with the statement: “It’s all Hollywood History.”

I gave up. I realized I was having a discussion with someone who either couldn’t, or didn’t want to know the truth.

Which brings me to…..

BLIND FAITH.

Whether we want to admit it or not, we’ve all got to believe in something.

Do you believe everything you read just because there’s been a “study” done on the topic?

So, you might (or might not) ask……

What does Calico Blackie believe?

There’s an old song which was recorded by the band Blood, Sweat & Tears that contains the line:

“I swear there ain’t no Heaven, but I pray there ain’t no Hell”….

That’s what I believe.

What else do I believe?

I believe that extremism is dangerous.

I believe that anybody who thinks they are somehow SUPERIOR to any other human being for reason of race, color, creed, sexual orientation or social standing is also dangerous.

Do you believe?

BLIND FAITH IS DANGEROUS when it causes an individual to hate their fellow human beings simply because they don’t think as you do.

It’s even more dangerous when we get whole groups of people or nations believing in that superiority.

So now, we’ve “evolved” into a world where whole huge groups of people hate each other and think they are somehow better than the rest.

The extreme atheists think they have the answer and that most of the problems in the world can be solved by abolishing religion.

How can they accomplish this? Why, by killing off the “believers” of course and FORCING their will on the masses!

Is it dangerous to make people think?

The extreme Vegans think that most of the world’s problems can be solved if we all stopped eating meat.

How can they accomplish this? Why, by killing off the “carnivores” of course and FORCING their will on the masses!

The extremely religious people out there all think that they have the “true faith” and “the one true God” and are more than willing to kill their fellow human beings who don’t see things their way. They think the world’s problems can be solved if we all adopted their religion.

How can they accomplish this? Why, by killing off the “infidels” of course and FORCING their will on the masses!

Will we ever learn on our own?

The extreme racists think that most of the world’s problems can be solved if we all were members of the same ethnic group.

How can they accomplish this? Why, by killing off the people who weren’t born with their skin color of course and FORCING their will on the masses!

And so on, forever.

But, truth be told, they’re all wrong.

Members of the same races, colors, beliefs and creeds have been killing each other off throughout our history. Even if we all woke up tomorrow and discovered that every group which we thought we were superior to had vanished from the earth overnight, we would still fight wars, starve each other, exploit the weaknesses of others, and, in general, life would go on with all it’s associated misery, wars, and yes, even joys as if nothing drastic had happened.

Is this true for most people?

Why?

Because whether you’re an atheist, a racist, an infidel, a vegan, a “true believer” or cut from any stripe……

There’s a new “god” in town. But it’s not new. It’s always been around in one form or another.

It’s called: MONEY and as long as we’re a materialistic human race, we’ll be killing each other off forever.

Oh, you can argue the example of the American Indians and how they weren’t aware of the concept of money before they were corrupted by the “evil white man” but that’s bullshit.

They were perfectly aware of the concept of “trade goods” and natural resources, and land, which they gladly killed each other to get. Money with just another name.

Call it wealth, if you will.

So, what can we do?

Look around you. What do you see?

We can make people aware of what’s really going on in the world. We can urge people to reject materialism and greed. We can point out the follies we’re fighting each other over.

We can point out that most of the reasons we kill each other over aren’t because of race, color, creed, or sexual orientation.

We kill each other over money and greed. The greed of the few who control the media and the cash and can whip us up and manipulate us into a frenzy at any time to go kill our fellow human beings.

And for what? So that “the few” can have even more money!

Maybe it’s time to begin looking at things from ALL angles and not just from the angle we’re comfortable with

Oh, they’ll dangle a few carrots before our eyes to make us lust for more money for ourselves, but it’s an illusion.

They will never give up their stranglehold on the human race unless we force them to do it.

And we’ll never be able to force them to do it until there’s a rise in the consciousness of the entire world and a new way of thinking.

In short, we’ll probably never be able to do it because there will always be those among us who will slavishly suck the dicks of their masters in the hopes that they will get a bigger scrap from the masters table.

So, what can we do? We can live our lives as best as we can, in every sense of the word. We can reject materialism to a certain extent and still live.

Sometimes, things have to be spelled out for some people

WE CAN LEARN TO RECOGNIZE BULLSHIT WHEN WE SEE IT AND WE CAN POINT OUT THE BULLSHIT TO OTHERS SO THAT THEY CAN SEE IT AS BULLSHIT TOO!

But, what do I know?

Point out the bullshit, and you’re branded a “conspiracy nut.”

Speak out on your job or in your profession about the injustice of it all, and you get fired and/or blackballed.

Why? Because money is power and it controls EVERYTHING.

For instance, look at our news media and even our movies.

There was a scene in the old movie “Close Encounters of the Third Kind” where Richard Dreyfuss was sitting at a table with news reporters and other people who claimed to have seen aliens.

Who did the reporters flock to for their story?

Was it the “reasonably sane” people? No, it was the “nutcase” who also claimed to have seen Bigfoot.

“Let’s all laugh at the nutcase”

That’s what people want to see.

They want to be reassured that when phenomena occurs on this earth that can’t be explained, it can be easily brushed aside as a figment of some lunatics imagination.

When you watch the news, have you ever noticed that the members of the LGBT community interviewed are either the “swishers” or the “bulldykes”?

Have you ever noticed that the people in the forefront of the fight for gun control are the “bleeding hearts” who probably can’t even wipe their own noses, and when they interview someone opposed to gun control, it’s usually some “gun-nut with a hard-on” who has a whole house full of weapons?

WE NEED TO LEARN HOW TO CALL “BULLSHIT” ON THIS TACTIC USED TO KEEP US DIVIDED AND FIGHTING AMONG OURSELVES, and we need to start keeping an open mind.

THINK FOR YOURSELF. DON’T BE BLINDED BY FAITH IN ANYTHING.

On that note……

Since the “news” is usually presented to us to distract and entertain (unless it’s interpreted for us by “Bigfoot Believers” and “conspiracy nuts”)….

Here’s a couple of stories in a somewhat lighter vein……

Sexercise? Forget it! The average person burns only 21 calories while having sex

How did the Petries stay so slim for all those years?

It’s one of those urban myths that we love to believe is true – that it’s possible to burn up to 300 calories during sex.

But using a session between the sheets as an excuse to skip the gym is not as foolproof as you might think.

For the average person burns a mere 21 calories during the average session, researchers claim.

He discovered that sex lasted six minutes on average – ‘disappointing, isn’t it?’ – and that the energy output equated to a paltry 20 or so calories – about the same as walking.

His report in today’s New England Journal of Medicine says false assumptions such as this are the part of the reason for the obesity crisis.

Among the other widely-held beliefs he investigated were whether snacking or skipping breakfast is bad or whether physical education classes make a big difference to children’s weight.

Reviewing the best available research, he found that P.E. classes are are typically not long or intense enough to make much difference.

Link is here: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-2271121/Sexercise-Forget-Average-person-burns-21-calories-having-sex.html

But, he looks like such a NICE man!

Calico Blackie says:

Do you believe everything you read?

ONLY 21 calories? They’re not doing it right.

And if that were true, wouldn’t Nelson Rockefeller, Jr. still be alive?

He’s the guy who “died in the saddle” while screwing his secretary.

I’ll bet his wife, Happy Rockefeller wasn’t very happy!

Welcome to HELL, Mr. Rockefeller!

Oh, then there’s this….

SHE’S SINGLE AGAIN, BOYS!

Leave it to Beaver

Sharon Stone and her much younger boyfriend, Martin Mica, have reportedly called it quits after eight months of dating.

The 54-year-old actress wasn’t concerned about the age gap with the handsome 27-year-old Argentinian model.

“It wasn’t so much the age difference,” a source told the magazine. “They didn’t share the same interests. Her passions are philanthropy, politics, activism – he wasn’t into any of that.”

The two, who were caught cozying up on beaches and at fashion shows this past summer, reportedly broke it off after the holidays.

Calico Blackie says:

We’re all easily influenced by the media and we can’t help it. How else would we learn anything? It’s what we do with the information and how we use it that matters.

Even if we use it unreasonably, we’re still influenced by our social environment and all of our surroundings.

Look around at the best actors and public figures and how they can shape our minds.

“Uh, no thanks!”

For instance:

If I suddenly found myself having to spend a night in a deserted farmhouse and my fellow houseguests included Jack Nicholson, Steven King, Quentin Tarantino, David Lynch, and as a capper, Sharon Stone in my bed, I sure would try to last longer than six minutes and I SURE AS HELL wouldn’t fall asleep all night for fear of feeling an ice-pick or an axe!

I know, all unreasonable thoughts. None of those people even know I exist, and couldn’t care less. But, the thoughts are there nonetheless.

Even if it were to happen, the reality is that I would probably “die in the saddle” and my wife wouldn’t be very “Happy”.

Think about what????

So, we should all know our own minds and try to separate the reasonable from the unreasonable and learn to question the information we’re fed on a daily basis.

Maybe there are some of us who are not “nuts” for refusing to be gullibly led off a cliff.

THINK ABOUT IT

THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE

by Calico Blackie on January 16, 2013 at 1:23 pm

Posted In: A Dose Of Reality, Big Brother, Bread and Circuses for the Masses, Divided We Fall, Media Bias

The concept of “Will of the People” has been distorted for centuries by civic leaders in order to achieve the cherished goals of the few. It’s been used to burn witches. To kill Jews. To enslave the innocent. To turn law abiding citizens into pariahs

Something I’ve learned in my 57 years on this earth is that the “Will of the People” is whatever the government says it is and wants it to be.

Our “Will” isn’t ours.

AND THERE ISN’T A DAMN THING WE CAN DO ABOUT IT.

All that is necessary to secure the “will of the people” is to publicize the hell out of something, harp on it in the “news” everyday, take a few “polls” in areas that promise a favorable outcome for whatever view is being foisted upon us and PRESTO!

It’s “The Will of the People”…… You asked for it, you got it.

Politicians can say: See? I was only doing “The Will of the People”! Vote for me! Now, conform with the herd and go with the flow. Otherwise, you will be dehumanized and demonized. Called names. Shunned for what?

Gabrielle Dee “Gabby” Giffords in her vote-whoring, pre-shooting days showing gun owning voters what a “regular gal” she is

Shunned for not agreeing with a trumped-up Will of the People.

That’s right…….

YOU, YA RIGHT-WING MACHO PARANOID GUN NUT WITH A TINY PENIS!

Shunned and ridiculed when all this time you believed the lie: “If you’re not doing anything wrong, you have nothing to worry about.”

That line worked pretty good for you when you were using it to describe “dirty hippie occupiers” who were calling for an end to corruption in government and an end to Wall Street greed.

That line worked pretty good when you supported The Patriot Act and NDAA.

How’s it working out for you now, Cletus?

Here’s the latest, and you can’t spit. You’ll have to swallow.

Obama: “I will put everything I’ve got into this, and so will Joe. But the only way we’ll change is if the American people demand it.”

Obama unveils sweeping new gun control proposals

Assault weapons used on students? Can’t have that! Only the police and military should have guns and assault weapons

President Barack Obama unveiled sweeping new policies Wednesday aimed at limiting gun violence, teeing up a political showdown that will pit the broad public popularity for many gun control measures against Congress’s tepid appetite for approving the most stringent restrictions on gun ownership.

“While there is no law or set of laws that can prevent every senseless act of violence completely, no piece of legislation that will prevent every tragedy, every act of evil,” Obama said at a mid-day announcement at the White House, “if there’s even one thing we can do to reduce this violence, if there’s even one life that can be saved, then we have an obligation to try it.”

3 out of 3 Americans in this picture want gun control – and we can all sing “cumbaya” and get along too

“We’re not going to get an outright ban,” Rep. Carolyn McCarthy, D-N.Y., said of limits on assault weapons. Still, McCarthy, a leading voice in Congress in favor of gun control, said she would keep pushing for a ban and hoped Obama would as well.

Nearly six in 10 Americans want stricter gun laws in the aftermath of the shootings in Connecticut, with majorities favoring a nationwide ban on military-style, rapid-fire weapons and limits on gun violence depicted in video games, movies and TV shows, according to a new Associated Press-GfK poll.

Link is here: http://nbcpolitics.nbcnews.com/_news/2013/01/16/16544842-obama-unveils-sweeping-new-gun-control-proposals?lite

Prior to the Obama Show, there was this preview:

As adults, most of us see what they want us to see and believe what they want us to believe. As kids, we reflect our parent’s beliefs and values

During his announcement Wednesday, Obama will be joined children from across the U.S. who wrote letters to him about gun violence and school safety.

One of those children, a Maryland 8-year-old named Grant, wrote: “It’s a free country but I recommend there needs (to) be a limit with guns. Please don’t let people own machine guns or other powerful guns like that.”

Calico Blackie says:

Shameless and cynical exploitation of a child for a political motive. What a dick!

Uh, there already is a ban on machine guns in this country.

Where do you think an 8-year old got the idea that the average joe can walk into a store and buy a machine gun?

Now, we will have a committee formed to make recommendations by the end of the month to, you know, keep us divided amongst ourselves on the issue of gun control, instead of focusing on the main problems in our society.

But, you know….GUNZ!!!

But…..

Keep investing all your energy into the theater of intraclasswarfare (i.e.: gun debate). It’s for the kids, after all.

Besides, we all have to make sacrifices! Even Jamie Dimon has to tighten his belt!

Did you see this story?

JPMorgan Halves Dimon’s Bonus To $10.5 Million After London Whale Fiasco

While Dimon’s salary of $1.5 million was untouched from a year earlier, his incentive compensation of $10 million in restricted stock units is down 53.5% from 2011. The cut comes after Dimon was caught unaware by the risky trading in the London office of the bank’s Chief Investment Office.

Calico Blackie says:

We’re so screwed. The banksters have us fighting each other

The poor guy. I’ll bet he’s devastated. I bet when he gets home from work tonight he’ll have to tell his wife:

“Sorry honey. We’ll have to send our kids to public school now.”

Oh, sure. There are those of you who will say: “But he has a real tough job and a skillset that qualifies him for the salary and for the bonus.”

Don’t get me wrong. The man is smart. So is Lex Luthor, if you follow comic books.

However, is it morally right that anyone should amass more money than they will ever possibly be able to spend in 10 lifetimes?

Here’s how I see it.

To my simple mind, being rich is ok. But, being filthy rich? Well, there’s a reason it’s called filthy rich.

For example:

What is dependency? What is morality?

I raise chickens for their eggs. I feed them. I take care of them. I keep predators away from them. I allocate the space for them.

I gather their eggs too.

Would it be morally right, even though I did all the work, for me to hoard more eggs than I could possible ever eat in 10 lifetimes while my neighbors were starving?

Would it be morally right for me to trade eggs for their work if I was only willing to give each family 1 egg for an entire day’s worth of hard labor?

Would it be morally right for me to undersell and buy out or drive out the other chicken farmers in the area so that I can have a monopoly on the egg supply?

That’s what the filthy rich are doing in this country. They’re strangling us.

But, you know…..

GUNZ!

“Please Mr. Policeman, protect us on our school campuses”!

GUNS ARE KILLING US! PLEASE UNCLE SAM AND MR. POLICEMAN…..

PROTECT US FROM EACH OTHER!

You don’t want to hear that, do you?

OK. Here ya go.

It’s a birthday for Kate Moss! Yippee! Something we all can get behind!

So, take your goddamned prescription pills and let’s look at Kate’s tits!

Take those same pills that have been actively prescribed and encouraged for us from the cradle to the grave to treat symptoms, but never to cure.

It’s Kate Moss’ Birthday! Here she shows us her “bullets”. Take another pill

Those same prescription pills that started coming into widespread use around 40 years ago right about the same time school shootings and massacres started to become more common.

The same time the bogus “War on Drugs” got cranked-up full swing.

Do ya think maybe there might be a connection there?

But, you know……

GUNZ!!!!! BAD!!!!!

Fuck you.

Mr. Obama said today: “Our first priority is keeping our kids safe.”

OK, Mr. Obama. Let’s do that. Let’s start by ending the war in Afghanistan and let’s use the money we piss away on the fat cats running the Military Industrial Complex to end poverty in this country so that every kid can be taken care of.

OK, Mr. Obama. Let’s do that. Let’s start by ending the bogus and failed “War on Drugs”. PROHIBITION DOESN’T WORK.

OK, Mr. Obama. Let’s do that. Let’s start by having a fairer distribution of wealth (through better wages and health benefits) and ending the maximum profit mentality that was/is directly responsible for the offshoring of jobs and the lowering of wages in this country.

OK, Mr. Obama. Let’s do that. Let’s start by putting the brakes on an out of control Wall Street and putting a stop to corruption in government.

OK, Mr. Obama. Let’s do that. Let’s start by LISTENING TO THE REAL WILL OF THE PEOPLE.

Besides, who really cares when we’re still free to look at pictures of Kate Moss’ ass? How long will it be before you’re considered a perv for looking at her butt? YA RIGHT-WING MACHO SEXIST PORNO NUT WITH A TINY PENIS!

But, you know….

GUNZ!

Fuck you, Mr. Obama.

My head says: “Who Cares?” but then, my heart says:

“YOU DO”!!!

Please help spread the message.

Please follow the true “Will of the People”

THE “BUSINESS ETHICS” OF GETTING SCREWED

by Calico Blackie on August 15, 2012 at 11:20 am

Posted In: A Dose Of Reality, Media Bias

Are you wasting your life?

We’ve been conditioned over the years to believe what we’re told and to follow the path of least resistance.

Many of us even go so far as to believe that somehow our credit score is a key indicator of what type of human being we are.

We’ve been conditioned to equate a high credit score with goodness.

Nowadays, when you apply for a job, most places run a background check on you and if you have a “bad” credit score, you don’t get hired. So, having money and good credit is “good” while being broke and having a bad credit rating is “bad.”

See what they did there? Rich=Good. Poor=Bad.

Lost in all this is what type of human being you really are.

This could be the generic tombstone for a whole lot of people

We can’t help it.

The lesson gets pounded into us from the cradle to the grave, just like the concept of winning being the all-important thing in life.

Oh sure, we’re told “It doesn’t matter whether you win or lose, it’s how you play the game” but we all know that’s bullshit told to losers to make them feel better about being losers.

If you don’t win, you’re a loser!

As kids growing up, we all knew at least one kid who cheated to “win” whether it was cheating at Monopoly, or cheating at tests in school. If they didn’t get caught, THEY WON.

They didn’t care if they were screwing their friends or if the test was graded on a curve and they shafted everyone else in the class….

Imagine everyone being glad when you’re dead? You helped your fellow cheaters to win, but in the end, contributed nothing but misery to the world

THEY WON AND YOU LOST!

Nowadays, in the adult world, we call this type of behavior “Business Ethics” and we justify it by saying it’s necessary to cheat to win.

It makes me wonder if Jamie Dimon and his bankster cronies cheated their “friends” at Monopoly or cheated on tests when they were growing up?

Just, as many serial killers abused animals when they were growing up, I’ll bet if a study was done on the childhoods of cold-hearted and ruthless businesspeople, it would find that they grew up cheating their fellow students and friends.

They learned at an early age that cheating and cruelty had it’s rewards and they never were able to equate fairness with goodness. WINNING IS EVERYTHING, AND WE ACCEPT THIS PHILOSOPHY.

“We know you’ve been a good employee, but now you’re gonna have to take one for the TEAM! Don’t be a sore loser”

We’re taught to be a gracious winner and to not be a sore loser and it carries over into adulthood.

The difference is that it’s not a kids game anymore when you’re an adult.

The office ass-kisser gets the promotion and you don’t. Or worse, the office ass-kisser sees you as a threat and gets you fired. But don’t be a sore loser!

The new boss wants to get rid of the old employees in his department and bring in his own new “team.” Never mind that the old “team” worked faithfully and efficiently for the company. People start getting set up to be laid off or fired and are replaced with butt-nuzzlers.

“Thank you for your faithful service and we wish you all the best in your future endeavors”

But, don’t be a sore loser!

Be a “team player” right up to the bitter end and cheerfully accept the fact you lost and now you and your family ARE facing bankruptcy and homelessness.

And for what?

Because some heartless prick wanted to be surrounded by his own team of sycophants, and didn’t care how many lives he ruined in the process to achieve his goal.

It’s good for business.

Yeah, right. Keep telling yourself that

We convolute definitions of admirable traits such as “ambition” and “drive” and twist them to cloak malice and greed to somehow make screwing people to win alright in our eyes.

It’s like saying you watch beach volleyball for the skill and athleticism, thus making it alright, when in reality you’re just salivating over the butts.

Face it: It’s a meatshow.

Most people watch it for it’s softcore porn value. But, we’re not watching porn. We’re watching the Olympics!

We’re not screwing our fellow human beings. We’re conducting good business!

It’s called: “Business Ethics” to placate us and to ease the consciences (if they have any) of the pricks, and we accept that. After all, we wouldn’t want to be called “sore losers” or “complainers” or “malcontents.”

It has been ingrained into our society to just sit back and enjoy getting screwed.

On another note….

Japan nuclear disaster caused mutated butterflies

What might this be doing to OUR reproductive systems? But it’s alright. The power companies have business ethics! Don’t act concerned or complain. Don’t be a sore loser

TOKYO — “Researchers in Japan have found signs of mutation in butterflies, signaling one of the first indications of change to the local ecosystem as a result of last year’s nuclear accident in Fukushima, according to one of the first studies on the genetic effects of the incident.”

“Joji Otaki from the University of the Ryukyus in Okinawa, who led the research, collected 144 commonly-found pale grass blue butterflies two months after the March 2011 accident at the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear plant.”

“Initial results indicated that roughly 12 percent of the butterflies showed signs of abnormalities, such as disfigurement in their antennas, smaller-sized wings, change in color patterns and indented eyes, Otaki said.”

“Even more alarming, when he collected another 238 samples six months later he found that those abnormalities had increased to 28 percent and the mutations had doubled to 52 percent in their offspring.”

Calico Blackie says:

So, People of Japan, just accept the fact that you got irradiated again, and this time at the hands of your own greedy power company. Don’t be concerned. Don’t complain. You lost, they won. It was “business.”

On September 17th, let’s open Pandora’s Box in protest WORLDWIDE and give voice to our grievances.

There, people of Japan and all “little” people of the world. Doesn’t that make you feel better now?

SCREW THAT!

Who’s being a sore loser? We can only be losers if we accept defeat.

NEVER!

THIS IS WHAT OUR SYSTEM HAS BECOME AND WE’VE GOT TO CHANGE IT

Take back the Park on September 17th

Take back OUR world

OCCUPY WALL STREET

REPOSSESS WALL STREET! LET’S TAKE BACK OUR COUNTRY

by Calico Blackie on June 28, 2012 at 11:10 am

Posted In: A Dose Of Reality, Big Brother, Bread and Circuses for the Masses

This is not your beautiful house!

As we move deeper into the 21st Century, we are seeing an era of global financial failures, wars, and an end to the middle-class as we know it.

Our world is falling apart.

The rich are still getting richer, while we, the people get poorer. We’re awakening to the fact that our politicians and their owners, the financiers, will not act in our best interests. Our system has failed us.

Yet, we still have hope for tomorrow because there are still those among us with the courage to OCCUPY.

As I stated in my last column, we need to keep active with the cause for the sake of humanity. We need to talk to the homeless, the poor, the middle class, and all of the people currently struggling under the burden of making the 1% even richer than they already are at our expense.

They’re killing us and they don’t care.

We need to show the people how this is happening and explain why this situation MUST change.

Throw off the old Democratic and Republican partisan affiliations and OCCUPY.

Work outside the “approved and accepted” traditional channels until we’re a majority whose voice will OVERWHELM the cruel and inhuman system set up for us by the oppressors.

BE A PATRIOT!

So……

What is your definition of “obscene”?

What is your definition of “evil”?

THIS IS OBSCENE AND EVIL:

WHY ISN’T THIS STORY IN THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA? Where are Fox, MSNBC, CNN and the other propaganda machines when it comes to this?

The Sharp, Sudden Decline of America’s Middle Class

This could be YOU, if it isn't already

“Every night around nine, Janis Adkins falls asleep in the back of her Toyota Sienna van in a church parking lot at the edge of Santa Barbara, California.”

“On the van’s roof is a black Yakima SpaceBooster, full of previous-life belongings like a snorkel and fins and camping gear. Adkins, who is 56 years old, parks the van at the lot’s remotest corner, aligning its side with a row of dense, shading avocado trees.”

“The trees provide privacy, but they are also useful because she can pick their fallen fruit, and she doesn’t always have enough to eat. Despite a continuous, two-year job search, she remains without dependable work.”

“By the time Adkins goes to bed – early, because she has to get up soon after sunrise, before parishioners or church employees arrive – the four other people who overnight in the lot have usually settled in: a single mother who lives in a van with her two teenage children and keeps assiduously to herself, and a wrathful, mentally unstable woman in an old Mercedes sedan whom Adkins avoids.”

“By mutual unspoken agreement, the three women park in the same spots every night, keeping a minimum distance from each other.”

THIS IS WHAT'S HAPPENING WHILE MORE AND MORE PEOPLE ARE BECOMING HOMELESS IN AMERICA EVERY DAY. DON'T STAND FOR IT ANYMORE!

Each evening, 150 people in 113 vehicles spend the night in 23 parking lots in Santa Barbara. The lots are part of Safe Parking, a program that offers overnight permits to people living in their vehicles.”

“The nonprofit that runs the program, New Beginnings Counseling Center, requires participants to have a valid driver’s license and current registration and insurance.”

“Some 5.4 million Americans have been without work for at least six months, and an estimated 750,000 of them are completely broke or heading inexorably toward destitution.”

“In California, where unemployment remains at 11 percent, middle-class refugees like Janis Adkins are only the earliest arrivals. “She’s the tip of the iceberg,” says Nancy Kapp, the coordinator of the Safe Parking program. “There are many people out there who haven’t hit bottom yet, but they’re on their way – they’re on their way.”

THIS is what our leaders are doing and care about while you're losing everything

“When you come to me, you’ve hit rock bottom,” Kapp says.

“You’ve already done everything you possibly could to avoid being homeless. You maybe have a teeny bit of savings left.”

“People are crying, they’re saying, ‘I’ve never experienced this before. I’ve never been homeless.’ They don’t want to mix with homeless people. They’re like, ‘I’m not going over to those people’ – sometimes they call them ‘those people.’

“So now they’re lost, they’re humiliated, they’re rejected, they’re scared, and they’re very ashamed. I’m worried about the psychological damage it does when you have a place and then, all of a sudden, you’re in your car. You have to be depressed just from the fall itself, from losing everything and not understanding how it could happen.”

We've got to start standing up for ourselves and our country. Stand up in groups AND as individuals

“However long it takes to lose everything, to get to the point where you’re driving away from your repossessed home, the final unraveling seems eye-blink fast, because there is no way to imagine it. Even if you’ve been unemployed for a year and are months-delinquent on your mortgage, you still won’t have a mental category for your own homelessness; it’s impossible to project yourself into the scenario. The reality, when it occurs and endures, seems to have sprung from nowhere.“

Calico Blackie says:

In the “land of plenty” this is a DISGRACE. Where is the “plenty” for we the PEOPLE? It’s in the hands of the 1%. And what are our “leaders doing about it?

Have you seen this story? It’s being repeated across America:

Reno OKs tax breaks for proposed Apple project

THIS IS WHAT OUR LEADERS ARE DOING WHILE WE ARE GETTING THE SHAFT

“The Reno City Council is considering tax breaks meant to coax Apple Inc. to open two facilities in Northern Nevada as part of a $1 billion investment over 10 years.”

“At a meeting today, councilmembers are considering their portion of a deal that includes $89 million in county, city and state tax abatements.”

“Analysts say that’s a 79 percent reduction in the Cupertino, Calif., company’s tax burden.”

“Apple is proposing a 350-acre data center east of Sparks to house servers for its cloud computing service, and a business and purchasing center in Reno’s Tessera District, a blighted area on the northeastern side of downtown.”

“A report on the so-called “Project Jonathan” said the data center would eventually employ up to 41 full-time employees and 200 long-term contract employees. Construction is estimated to create 580 temporary jobs, according to the Reno Gazette-Journal.”

“But of the $105 million in tax revenue the project is expected to produce during that period, state and local governments would see just $16 million of it after various tax breaks and endorsements, according to the Las Vegas Sun.”

Calico Blackie says:

Are we willing to settle for this? HELL NO!

Tax breaks for major corporations and our civic leaders are falling over themselves in a competition to see who can suck the corporate dick the hardest?

Oh, I know what you’re thinking…..

“If our city doesn’t offer the breaks, they’ll go somewhere else.”

I SAY: LET THEM GO!

I SAY: NO TAX BREAKS FOR THEM OR ANY OTHER CORPORATION ANYWHERE IN AMERICA!

Now, you’re saying……

“But, they’ll just pack up and move out of the country and we’ll get nothing.”

I SAY: GOOD! GOODBYE! DON’T LET THE DOOR HIT YOU IN THE ASS ON YOUR WAY OUT THE DOOR WHEN YOU GO TO CHINA!

Here is what we need to force our “leaders” into doing:

KICK THEM OUT! Do we really need Monsanto poisoning us? Do we really need FRACKING? Do we really need corporations raping the land and turning America into a wasteland for THEIR profit while we become homeless?

Pass laws stating that if a corporation moves out of the country, they can NEVER return. THEY and all the chosen employees that go with them give up their citizenship and can NEVER return.

THEY can NEVER sell their products in this country again.

Now, you’re saying…..

“But this would create a “brain drain” in this country!”

I SAY: IS THIS THE TYPE OF “BRAINS” WE WANT IN THIS COUNTRY?

Brains that are poisoned by greed? Brains that will pass on their greedy and cruel tendencies on to their children? Brains that will perpetuate cruelty, lack of compassion, and greed? Brains that have ruined America with their quest for ever increasing wealth at the cost of the rest of us?

THEY’RE BRINGING YOU AND THE REST OF AMERICA TO IT’S KNEES.

LET THEM GO! They’re defective. Let some other country have our garbage.

LET THEM GO RUIN SOMEWHERE ELSE

Have our “brains” work on renewable and sustainable energy. Have our “brains” work on non-polluting industries which provide durable and safe products that we want.

Have our “brains” be the ones that stay in this country because they care about WE, THE PEOPLE.

Have our “brains” be the ones that stay here because they LOVE THEIR COUNTRY MORE THAN THEY LOVE MONEY.

ASK YOURSELF….

Do you really want this in your community?

Do you want tax breaks for big corporate entities that provide very few jobs for the locals and does very little for your hometown?

Do you want militarized police forces with tanks and machine guns?

HOW ABOUT THIS, INSTEAD:

Portland Police Officer John Maul

How about having well trained and compassionate beat cops who are willing to help you if you “fall down”?

How about using Officer John Maul as a national model for police recruiting?

How about having larger, better equipped and more modern fire departments, with armies of firefighters ready to go out and battle these forest fires, instead of having armies of “peoplefighters” ready to go into the streets and brutalize peaceful citizens for exercising their constitutional rights?

It's time we "FORECLOSED" on Washington, DC. They're not paying their debt to our society

How about we abolish all these useless and redundant “agencies” such as the DEA and ATF (both serve a function which can be perfectly performed by the FBI) and put the money we would save towards helping we, the PEOPLE?

How about we tell our congressmen and senators to abolish all of their goddamned worthless committees and sub-committees, stop wasting OUR money, and make it illegal to take anything but their salary?

If they can’t get the job done without forming a committee to “study the issue” or if they can’t afford to live without a “speakers fee” or other such bribe, then they’re fired.

How about making lobbying illegal?

How about all of these things? Does it seem like too big of a task for us?

BANKSTERS: WE ARE COMING

We’re not powerless. Our numbers are ever-increasing.

With every lay-off.

With every sell-out.

With every foreclosure.

With every instance of police brutality.

With every new person joining the ranks of the homeless.

With every parent who’s lost a child in a war for profit.

With every person who’s health has been ruined by the corporate rape of the environment.

With every new voice that takes to the streets and says:

OCCUPY WALL STREET!!!

Our numbers are increasing.

The scene at Occupy Los Angeles TODAY

WE SHALL PREVAIL

Fight greed.

Fight injustice.

Fight evil.

REPOSSESS WALL STREET!

TAKE BACK OUR COUNTRY

Keep the faith, fellow Occupiers

OBSCENITY AND EVIL IN THE MODERN WORLD

by Calico Blackie on June 25, 2012 at 1:12 pm

Posted In: A Dose Of Reality, Big Brother, Bread and Circuses for the Masses, Divided We Fall, Media Bias

Gratuitous show of titties. I ask: Is this image of Katy Perry in a see-through blouse obscene? It doesn't appear to be evil

What is your definition of “obscene”?

What is your definition of “evil”?

To me, while the definition of obscenity and what is offensive exists in the eyes of the beholder………

Evil is always evil.

Cut and dried.

However, when something or someone is able to be both obscene and evil at the same time, that’s where the definition becomes clouded with our pre-conceived and learned notions of what constitutes an absolute “bad.”

Therefore, as I have stated in my past columns, we need to not only redefine how we view different aspects of society as a whole, but we also need to adjust our own personal world view and where we think ourselves and our views fit into our modern society.

Good vs. Evil. Obscene vs. “clean.”

Does obscenity necessarily involve nudity? Does evil necessarily involve malice and greed? What are examples of something which constitutes obscenity and evil at the same time?

Is this image of Katy Perry falling on her ass during a live performance obscene, evil, or just "eye candy" for the male population? Why?

These are all points worth considering in a post-modern world.

So, where is this leading us to?

It’s leading us to a re-examination of good vs. evil. Obscene vs. not obscene. It’s leading us to a re-definition of MORALITY in modern society. It’s leading us to a re-definition of how we govern and are governed.

It’s leading us to group together into protest movements and mutual protection groups. That’s how unions and political parties are formed. Groups of like-minded people begin to get together and form loose coalitions.

Before long, those “loose groups” begin to coalesce into a something much larger and more powerful. They build momentum, until their viewpoints and voices can no longer be ignored.

Maybe that’s what we should allow the occupy movement to evolve into.

Consider this…..

It HAS finally come down to this

Can we get a consensus from the General Assemblies and their supporters across the country to at least loosely form a coalition of dissatisfied people that is willing to ALWAYS act in unison to support each individual group?

I’m not talking about a new political party per-se. I’m talking about an alternate group that doesn’t work in association with, or support ANY of our current political parties.

I’m talking about a group that works totally OUTSIDE of our current system.

I’m talking about a group of citizens that has the potential to become bigger and more vocal than both the Democrat or Republican parties put together in America.

We would not field candidates in the traditional sense in our current system of rigged elections. Why bother to take part in that? Our current system of “Government of the corporations, by the corporations, and for the corporations” means that us fielding candidates would just guarantee that we’ll never have change for the better.

LET'S WORK TOGETHER

No. We would remain loosely tied to the General Assemblies within the Occupy Movement and eventually become such a large and united front that we could no longer be ignored.

But, we’ve got to believe. We can’t get discouraged.

And, if the Occupy Movement does fade away into obscurity, then we must be prepared to form yet another group to take up the original ideals of ending greed and corruption in government and supporting human rights.

An alternate government, free from malice and greed, within, but not supporting our current system.

Who is with me?

Judging from the way our economy is going, we should be getting more and more recruits every day.

FINALLY, the mainstream media reported on one of our “dirty little secrets.”

This latest news item made me think:

“I wonder how many of these suburbanites wrote us off (or are still writing us off) as little more than a bunch of dirty hippie protesters six months ago?”

From MSNBC:

In suburban America, middle class begins to confront poverty

THIS is what Obama, Boehner, and the rest of them are doing while we're being reduced to poverty. Grab that Wall Street cash!

BOULDER, Colo. – “The small communities that dot the picturesque mountain landscape outside Boulder, Colo., conjure up an image from long before the great recession.”

“Here the manicured lawns and expensive cars are a testament to the achievements of a fiercely independent and educated middle class; a 21^st century version of suburban bliss. But often these days, the closed doors of well-kept houses hide a decidedly different reality: hushed conversation about food stamps and Medicaid, depleted bank accounts and 401K’s, kitchen shelves stocked with groceries from food pantries.”

“It’s this dirty little secret,” said Joyce Welch, a stay-at-home mother of three whose husband, a mechanical engineer, lost his job six months ago. “Everybody is supposed to be able to buy the new car, supposed to buy the new house. And what we don’t talk about is people who struggle, and they’re struggling more and more.”

“The Welch family lives in Superior, a Boulder suburb that was listed by Money Magazine as one of the “Top 20 best places to live in America” in 2011. Neighboring Louisville was ranked number one.”

THIS is Jamie Dimon and his wife arriving for a dinner hosted by President Obama for Chinese statesmen. Our jobs go overseas. Where's our seat at the table? What is this bastard doing at a White House dinner?

“While these affluent communities still boast some of the lowest poverty levels in Colorado, the statistics were nonetheless startling: since 2008 the combined number of families on Medicaid more than doubled, as did the number of people utilizing food assistance.”

” Lafayette, another well-to-do suburb in East Boulder County experienced similar increases.”

“And it isn’t just happening in Boulder County. A 2011 study by the Brookings Institute revealed that for the first time in United States history there were more poor people living in the suburbs than in cities.”

“The need for help may transcend any published statistics. Sarah Nelson, the program director at the Sister Carmen Community Center a non-profit organization in Lafayette, Colorado, that provides financial assistance to low-income families in East Boulder County, said that Sister Carmen’s share of clients from Louisville and Superior rose from four percent in 2010 to a whopping twenty-two percent by the end of 2011.”

WE are the tired, the poor, the huddled masses. And guess what? Democrat or Republican: THEY DON'T GIVE A DAMN ABOUT YOU

“Many of these formerly middle-class families, Nelson said, have struggled under the radar and have not accessed public assistance programs: ”Their resources are drained. They’ve utilized all of their savings, all of their retirement funds. Their unemployment’s run out. They’ve gotten as much help from family and friends as they possibly can. And we’re their last resort.”

“Boulder County has signed up non-profit organizations like the Sister Carmen Community Center to be conduits for some of its front-end services. With the center’s help Joyce Welch and her family qualified for county rent assistance until August 2012, enough time, Joyce hoped, for her husband to find a job that will get the family back on their financial feet.”

“But for now, she has begrudgingly accepted that she has become a new and different statistic of poverty in America.”

“People like me are on food stamps. It’s people who want to go to work and can’t find work and don’t have an alternative,” she said, drawing an invisible square around her face, “I am the face of food stamps in 2012. I’m the face of Medicaid in 2012. I don’t like it, you know, I don’t sit there and wanna scream it from the mountaintop. But this is reality. This is my reality. This is the reality for more and more people in America.“

At what point do we stop buying into THEIR labels for us and create our own new world?

Calico Blackie says:

We’ve got to put a stop to the killing of America at the hands of the 1%. At what point do we define poverty as “OBSCENE”?

After I read the above story, I read the comments left after the article and was genuinely surprised.

They weren’t the usual “Get a job” and “They made bad choices” type of comments left by smug idiots who don’t realize that eventually it’s going to happen to them too.

Here’s a sampling of those comments:

“The wealthy have gamed the system to their advantage.

Our elected officials do not serve the people.

And we, the people, continue to elect them.”

We're not buying into their bullshit anymore

“Tell me, gullible Christian consumers, when the whole thing does finally collapse for the middle class, will you sleep soundly knowing that you saved stem cells, or fetuses, or that you pushed for creationism in school, or trickle-down economics, or fought the godless democrats all for baby Jesus, or stood hand in hand against the dire threat of gay marriage?

None of that helped. None of it put food on your table. None of it made a bit of difference.

“While you were distracted and divided and riled up for the wrong causes, your future was outsourced and offshored. Tax laws were rewritten. Wealth shifted upwards while you were fooled into thinking that you were doing ‘better’.

Spend and borrow! Take out a home equity loan! Buy a cart full of Chinese crap! Put your neighbors out of work to save a few bucks while shopping!”

What kind of lives will your children lead, selling each other cheap consumer goods and fast food for $9 an hour with no benefits and a college degree?”

Don't support a system that is killing us. STOP BEING A PUPPET OF THE SYSTEM

The next comment was:

“What will it take for you to demand better from your elected officials?

What will it take for you to walk away from the pathetic distractions the Republicans drag out to trick you into voting for them, or the patronizing promises of ‘entitlements’ and ‘change’ that the Democrats weakly trumpet that never materialize?”

For the first time in my life, I really don’t care who is elected for President, it won’t matter one way or another.

On one hand we have Bush/ Obama who talks big, but does nothing. And on the other, we have Mr. Flip-flop who has yet to even say anything except for, “Economies bad”.

“I got a survey from the Obama campaign yesterday, and I said in it, “I would like for you too use your new NDAA law and just fu@king murder me already, I’m tired of ALL the political bullsh!t and lies from both parties.”

Then, the next comment was:

THIS OBSCENITY IS WHAT THE 1% HAS BEEN PREACHING TO US FOR DECADES

“Actually, we ALL have a part in the huge disparity between the rich and the poor, the “HAVES” and the “HAVE NOTS”. And it was a very simple matter of not paying attention to the ideological BS being subtly infused into our brains: That wealth is an entitlement of the few.

Show me where in the Constitution it states this. Now, show me where in the Constitution it states that a US CEO must, must, must earn the highest salary in the world or for that matter, earn 500 times more than his employees.

Don’t bother…there is no such entitlement and the BS 500 times higher salaries were entirely a fabrication of men who rammed that idea down their intimidated employees throats for 4 or more decades.”

And finally:

“When an ideology…ANY ideology seeks to create a huge disparity for self-promotion and self-aggrandizment…that’s wrong. When an ideology stresses that some may not have to pay what all others do…that’s wrong. When an ideology cause one single American to struggle for no reason other than grabbing wealth…that’s wrong.”

Wealth that causes mass suffering isn’t wealth…it’s evil. It’s wrong and it has to be stopped.

Mitt Romney "auditions" a prospective running mate. Obscene? The most obscene thing about this image is: NEITHER ONE OF THEM GIVE A DAMN ABOUT YOU. They're evil

No man in the US deserves to earn an obscene salary if that salary demolishes, dismantles and degrades any other American or their government.

So ….if you want more struggle…keep falling for the BS of the right. Keep believing that an employer is the only God to whom you owe your lives.

Keep believing that money, not people is all that matter….see how far that gets the civilization in which you live.

Oh and don’t expect the ritzy titzies to agree that their selfish, naricissism and greed is evil. They can’t “afford” to admit the truth.”

Calico Blackie says:

It’s time, people. We’re fed up. It’s time we take action and get together to take back control. Whatever it takes.

The only part of this image that is obscene is that she's not pointing the gun at the right heads

We can’t afford to delay. Every day, more and more people are falling into the ranks of the impoverished. More and more people are joining us among the ranks of the homeless and imprisoned.

More and more people are seeing their children go hungry, while their once secure lifestyle has turned to dust.

More and more good people are being humiliated and have had any last shred of pride taken away from them. The whole while the Wall Street banksters are reaping record profits.

More and more people are losing hope.

I say: GIVE THEM HOPE!

A BETTER WORLD IS POSSIBLE, BUT WE’VE GOT TO FIGHT FOR IT.

Remember…..

The only way we will EVER regain our freedoms and our way of life is to FIGHT THE ENEMY. That enemy is WALL STREET.

BANKSTERS: WE ARE COMING

FIGHT THEM!

The ultimate obscenity is greed.

STAMP IT OUT

Citizens of the WORLD: Unite and abolish the big markets and money changers.

They are NOT job or wealth creators for we, the people.

HANG THE BANKSTERS

OCCUPY WALL STREET

WHAT THEN MUST WE DO?

by Calico Blackie on June 22, 2012 at 12:20 pm

Posted In: A Dose Of Reality, Bread and Circuses for the Masses, Divided We Fall

WARNING: NOT SAFE FOR WORK (NSFW) IMAGES IN TODAY’S COLUMN.

Is it time for us to see things in a whole different light?

Our old philosophies and rules have failed us. Not because they were necessarily wrong ideas, but rather because we as human beings will take those ideas and corrupt them.

Maybe we should give the following points some serious thought and then take action to correct our ways of thinking.

Maybe I’m wrong and everything is just fine. Anyway, I’m working from the assumption that everything isn’t just fine. I’m working on the premise that we need to begin to re-shape the world before it’s too late (if it isn’t already).

Here are a few examples of what I see as “wrong” in the world.

This first example might be an oversimplification, but maybe someone could explain it to this country bumpkin….

The bankers get bailed out for legally robbing us blind

(1.) Why is it that when you buy an $85,000.00 house in America, by the time your 30-year mortgage is paid off, you’ve paid a fortune for it?

You hear the usual stuff: “Banks are in business to make money.”

Most people are ok with this concept, but when is enough ENOUGH?

Maybe it’s time to revamp the way houses are bought and sold here. The banks get to charge you a stiff rate for the money they loan, but how much interest do they pay for that same money when they get it to loan to you?

Let’s take that 85,000 dollars and spread it out over 360 payments (30 years). If you did that, you would have to put 236.11 dollars away each month to reach the 85k figure at the end of 30 years.

OK. The banks have to make money, so let’s add a $40.00 loan fee payment each month. At the end of 30 years, you would have paid an extra $14,400 for the original 85k.

Why isn’t that “enough” money for the banks? Is this too simple?

Explain it to me please.

Conspiracy theories aside, here is Marilyn Monroe. Rich, beautiful and famous, and yet she killed herself. Would you say she was happy?

2. Maybe on the personal level, we need to re-examine our entire concept of what constitutes well-being.

In our country, it’s become the norm to treat anyone who doesn’t work 40-60 hours a week like a degenerate, and pay them accordingly.

We then create a culture that equates purchases and possessions with luxury and happiness.

You need to make more money to buy better things, and we hope no one notices that all the distractions, coping mechanisms, and drugs people buy wouldn’t be necessary if they didn’t spend half their waking lives doing something they hate.

Much better to have our best and brightest churning their lives away so they can someday have the same nice car as their boss…..

RIGHT?

What is well-being? Should we re-define it? Should we teach a new definition of well-being in our schools?

Which brings me to……

Women making obscene gestures and flashing their boobs in St. Peters Basilica in Rome. How many religious people are offended by this? Offended enough to pass laws restricting it? Offended enough to KILL?

3. Maybe we need to create a society that regards extremism and fundamentalism (particularly religious extremism and fundamentalism) as a form of mental illness and begin to work together to eradicate this blight on the world.

I’m not saying we should embrace atheism.

The hard-core atheists I’ve met are, for the most part, self-righteous assholes that I wouldn’t trust to walk my dog, much less to run a country. They’re just extremists of another stripe.

A good example of extremism was thrown in our faces just yesterday in this news story from CNN:

Deadly standoff ends at Afghan hotel; hostages freed after several hours

Imagine if the Taliban extremists ruled the world? KISS FREEDOM GOODBYE IN THE NAME OF GOD

“Taliban militants attacked a hotel near Kabul on Friday and seized dozens of hostages, sparking a fierce gunbattle with Afghan and NATO troops that left 26 people dead, authorities said.”

“Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid said the hotel attack targeted Westerners.

Attackers are armed with suicide vests, rocket-propelled grenades and heavy machine guns, he said in an e-mail while the siege was under way.”

“Every night people come here for different types of debauchery, but on Thursday night, the number increases, including foreigners who come here and they hold anti-Islamic ceremonies,” Mujahid said. “Tonight, according to our information, a number of ISAF and embassy diplomats from foreign countries have been invited by some senior Kabul administration officials and are now under attack.”

Link is here: http://www.cnn.com/2012/06/21/world/asia/afghanistan-violence/index.html?hpt=hp_t1

Calico Blackie says:

"Prostitution, pimping, sex, dancing and the drinking of liquor?" Sounds like Washington, DC. Here we see a picture of the head "pimp" Jamie Dimon about to address a whole roomful of his whores.

Those “anti-Islamic ceremonies” included prostitution, pimping, sex, dancing and the drinking of liquor which the Taliban says is forbidden under Islamic law.

Now, I don’t know about you, but the vast majority of Moslems I’ve met over the years are basically a “live and let live” type of people.

It’s the extremists you’ve got to watch out for.

AND IT’S THE SAME FOR ANY GROUP OF EXTREMISTS WHETHER THEY BE MOSLEM, CHRISTIAN, ATHEIST, OR WHATEVER FLAVOR OF BELIEF THEY’VE CHOSEN FOR THEMSELVES.

So…..

What then must we do?

Worth fighting for

We need to embrace the concept of fighting for human rights and to reject the concept of extremism in EVERYTHING. Liberty and justice for all, whether you agree with their viewpoint or not, just so long as their viewpoint doesn’t hurt other people.

We need to protest for human rights.

TAKE TO THE STREETS. BLOG. EDUCATE.

AND WE NEED TO LEARN FROM PAST MISTAKES.

We can’t just blindly follow a concept. It’s got to be hammered out with an eye to our history and what we’ve done as a “civilized” species.

The following is a quote from the book Black Edelweiss, by Johann Voss, pg. 69:

Black Edelweiss insignia

“The idea of the individual as a subordinate of the State is the root of all evil in the history of man. It’s the same with the church.”

“It always ended with the oppression of man by the ruling class in the name of some higher entity.”

“The French Revolution restored the freedom of the individual and it was all in vain. Somehow the old institutions returned or prevailed.”

AGAIN: What then must we do?

We can’t just “bend over and take it.“

We’ve got to resist the attempts by the ruling class to push us deeper into the abyss of despair.

We’ve got to protest, and at every Occupy General Assembly, we will have to set clear and attainable goals, and build from there.

If we can’t do this, then we might as well accept our fate.

Send me your ideas.

“A goal without action is only a wish.”

OCCUPY WALL STREET

DRAG THEM OUT AND PUBLICLY WHIP THEM

by Calico Blackie on June 16, 2012 at 2:30 pm

Posted In: A Dose Of Reality, Bread and Circuses for the Masses, Divided We Fall

Just a quick message for all the banksters and politicians out there.

Personally, I would love to see every Wall Street banker…

Every politician in Washington DC….

Every shyster in our Statehouses throughout the country….

Every damned Officer John Pike (pepper spray cop)……

…..Dragged out of their offices and publicly given a “Fargo Shep Proudfoot – style” whipping until they mend the error of their ways.

Shep and "friend"

Screw the people with your bankster ways?

Make a campaign promise you KNOW you can’t keep?

Sign bills into law that take away our freedom?

Brutalize peaceful protesters?

Meet Shep Proudfoot!

For those of you who don’t know who Shep Proudfoot is:

Link is here. The whipping happens at the 2:35 mark in the video, but watch the entire clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lu5McR-bPpU

We're sick of the BULLSHIT. OCCUPY!

Wouldn’t it have been great instead of watching our Senators slobber over kissing the ass of Jamie Dimon when they were supposed to be “grilling him” to have watched him rolling around on the floor getting “The Shep”?

OCCUPY WALL STREET

DIG UP THE RICH! GRAVE ROBBING FOR FUN AND PROFIT

by Calico Blackie on June 1, 2012 at 1:23 pm

Posted In: A Dose Of Reality, Media Bias

We don't take the time to see. We don't take the time to reason. WE DON'T TAKE THE TIME TO THINK

Today’s column is a bit tongue-in-cheek…..

Or, is it?

Why is it that we’re shocked by some stories in the news, yet when basically the same stories are presented in a different light, we’re perfectly alright with it?

In this life, we get robbed from the cradle to the grave, and sometimes we even get robbed after our deaths.

Yet, we brush off these robberies, saying “That’s Life,” or “It’s necessary,” or it’s done in the name of science, so it’s ok.”

Why?

Because we don’t take the time to see. We don’t take the time to reason.

WE DON’T TAKE THE TIME TO THINK.

It’s easier not to notice, see, or think for ourselves. Either that, or we exclude or excuse what we find uncomfortable in our world in an effort to remain oblivious to life’s cruel realities.

For instance, this was in the news. Did any of you give it serious thought other than having an initial sense of revulsion?

From KTVU Oakland:

Community appalled by vandalism attack at Martinez cemetery

"Look at those grave diggers. Oh, wait a minute. This isn't Martinez. It's for science in this picture, so it's ok"

“Recent events have spurred a new push to improve security at a nearly 150-year-old cemetery in Martinez after vandals broke into graves and even opened up some coffins.”

“KTVU talked to a caretaker who said the recent vandalism was just the latest in a rash of problems there.”

“Cemetery custodian Pete Carpenter told KTVU a hiker on a nearby trail first alerted him that someone had broken into two crypts at the Saint Catherine Cemetery in Martinez.”

Link is here: http://www.ktvu.com/news/news/families-appalled-vandalism-attack-martinez-cemeta/nPHmS/

Calico Blackie says:

We’re appalled when someone “vandalizes” a cemetery, yet Native American cemeteries are legally dug up every year in the interest of “science.” Or, they’re dug up because they’re in the way of a new housing development, pipeline, or highway construction.

Heck, they're not "grave robbers", they're "hobbyists" and "art collectors!"

Or, even worse, they’re dug up by illegal artifact hunters looking for that rare item to sell for a few bucks.

The Native Americans are getting robbed. Their graves are getting desecrated. Where’s the outrage?

Actually, I’m surprised cemetery grave robbing hasn’t developed into a lucrative family pastime in this current economy.

Think about it. I’m an archaeologist, so it’s easy for me to imagine a scenario where grave robbing might become an attractive way to supplement a meager income. I’ve seen all kinds of valuable artifacts come out of the ground, but I’ve NEVER dug a grave. It just creeps me out.

But, I can imagine this scenario……

You’ve got kids to clothe and feed, a mortgage to pay, utilities that demand their profits, not to mention gasoline and all the rest of the things that demand cash if you’re going to survive in this world.

YOUR job went to China!

You’re looking for work, having been “Rightsized” by a heartless CEO in the name of maximum profit.

AND…

Your unemployment just ran out.

Your solution? VICTIMLESS CRIME!

Heck, they’re dead. They won’t miss the stuff they were buried with.

Can you imagine the wealth of rings, jewelry, brass coffins, silver coffin fixtures, nameplates, antiques and gold teeth that must be buried in a cemetery?

What is more ugly: An open grave, or an open pit mine?

Besides, if the big corporations can rape the land in search of mineral wealth, what’s the harm in digging up and “mining” a few dead people?

If Jamie Dimon and the rest of the banksters in this country are allowed to legally cause misery and poverty among the living in this country, what’s the harm in grave robbing?

It would be too easy. Archival records in county courthouses often contain records describing burial items and have photographs of the deceased laying in their coffins.

Those same records will usually indicate whether the dead were rich or poor.

Those pictures plainly show valuable antique buttons, cameos, necklaces, earrings and other jewelery that was buried in the grave along with the dead person.

This is a $350,000.00 gold coffin. Would you be willing to dig it up if you thought you'd get away with it?

It would be like playing a slot machine knowing you were going to hit the jackpot!

So, why don’t we do it?

Because it’s wrong. Because it’s immoral. Because it’s SICK.

That’s why.

Yet, we can justify digging up Native American graves in the name of “science” and “progress.” Some people, those artifact hunters, can even justify digging up those graves in the name of PROFIT.

But, ultimately, digging up dead people is wrong. Even if some people think they can justify it. Every bit as wrong as murder.

So……………….

Why do we justify the Jamie Dimons of this world in their killing of us for maximum profits?

Dig up his family? MINE THE RICH & FEED THE POOR!

WALL STREET JUSTIFIES KILLING OUR FELLOW AMERICANS BY MAKING THEM FIGHT WARS FOR PROFIT AND BY MAKING THEM JOBLESS, HOMELESS, HUNGRY AND HOPELESS.

Yes, it’s wrong. It’s immoral. It’s SICK.

But it’s legal and WE STAND FOR IT.

Anyway, enough of this ghoulish stuff.

The banks don’t even have to wait until we’re dead before they rob us.

From MSNBC:

Getting carded: Banks stack fees on students

“It took Mario Parker-Milligan less than a semester to decide that he was paying too many fees to Higher One, the company hired by his college to pay out students’ financial aid on debit cards.”

Pigs get rich robbing you from the cradle to the grave

“Four years after he opted out, his classmates still face more than a dozen fees — for replacement cards, for using the cards as all-purpose debit cards, for using an ATM other than the two on-campus kiosks owned by Higher One.”

“They sold it as a faster, cheaper way for the college to get students their money,” said Parker-Milligan, 23, student body president at Lane Community College in Eugene, Ore. “It may be cheaper for the college, but it’s not cheaper for the students.”

“Colleges and banks rake in millions from the fees, often through secretive deals and sometimes in apparent violation of federal law, according to the report, an early copy of which was obtained by The Associated Press.”

“Higher One founder and Chief Operating Officer Miles Lasater said in an email that the company takes compliance with the government’s rules “very seriously,” and officially swears that to the government each year.”

“We are committed to providing good value accounts that are designed for college students,” he said, and students must review the company’s fee list when they sign up for an account. He cited a study commissioned by Higher One that declared Higher One “a low-cost provider for this market.”

But, there’s still hope!

Have you heard the news? There’s a new growth industry in this country.

From ABC News:

Tattoo Removal Booms in Slow Job Market

"Will you respect me in the morning?"

“With the job market recovering but still shaky, people with tattoos find it even harder to get hired, prompting them to reconsider their body art.”

“According to The Patient’s Guide, a website comprised of 25 niche publications dedicated to skin care, laser tattoo removal has increased 32 percent over the past year, with many citing employment as a main reason for the treatment.”

“The trend I’ve noticed the most is usually college students who have finished their education, and it’s a mistake they made a few years ago, and they’re looking for a job,” Mundt told ABC News. “And, people who have lost their jobs and are trying to get back into the workforce and gain an edge.”

“Mundt said her clients are primarily concerned with tattoos that are located on the wrist and neck.”

Maybe we can all open up tattoo parlors, tattoo removal shops, and sell shovels on the side for when we need to get some gold teeth from the Dimon family graveyard!

Maybe we can grave-rob the rich to feed the poor.

The “Occupy Movement” is still going strong as are the protests in Canada. Do you know about them?

By the way, if anybody gives a shit…..

The Eurozone is collapsing. The dollar is trading strong against other foreign currencies. They’re still killing people in Syria and across the world, AND we’re still saber rattling against Iran.

OPEN YOUR EYES!

At any rate, keep the faith Occupiers.

OCCUPY WALL STREET

OCCUPY OUR STREETS
