Good times are a comin'! This is old! I can't wait to see what 2009 is like! Booyah!

9/11 - In Memorial

noreply@blogger.com (/dn) — Fri, 11 Sep 2009 07:20:00 +0000

A moment.

Today is the anniversary of the most destructive of our self-inflicted wounds, the one that fundamentally hijacked the culture of liberty within our great nation. We were complicit, because as a nation we allowed our government to restrict our birth-rights all to offer a sense of snake-oil security.

9/11

Politics aside, please take a dedicated moment from your hectic lives to think of our many civilian losses, the many good men fighting a never-ending war overseas, along with the death of the American ideal.

Think Patriot Act. Patriot Act II. Waterboarding. Ubiquitous Surveillance. Checkpoints. Terrorism. Everywhere. White Al-Quaeda. Anthrax. Bio-terror. Up is down an down is up and we've always been at war with Oceania. Please remember the bushco statement "the Constitution is just a goddamn piece of paper" meanwhile the Federal government runs roughshod over our Constitutionally protected rights.

What has this meant for us?

In sum, Casus Belli

Think about false flag operations, and how the authorities have run roughshod over the American people for multiple generations. and we sit docile, awaiting things to "change". Meanwhile those tho vie for change are considered fringe.

However, change is coming. They will no longer have the freedom to get away more acts of terror against their own citizens. Should they provoke a response, they will reap what they have sown.

I heard a song when I was 16 - an old tune by a hack hardcore band called "black flag. Now they are called "seminal". Who would have thought that a song wrappered in the punk rock ethos could possibly embody the frustration of having liberties denied, stripped, and then told that we were wrong for feeling that way? Back in the day, with bad pseudo-mohawk and bad attitude, I wouldn't have guessed .. "me".

Regardless, this ditty has stuck with me for many years in it's brutal musical and lyrical simplicity - because at it's core, is a statement of defiance. One can only stretch so far, before the rubber band snaps.

The song is titled "No More"

.....
I knew what I had when I grew up
I know that it really sucked

Now I'm a slave to the same lies
If I don't get out I'm gonna die

I need action, won't take no more,
No more, no more, no more

It won't work, won't work
No more

Control, control for who,
For what?
I'm no robot, they can get fucked...

In Closing
The following article says it best. With some tears for the loss of life, and resolute action to stem the bleeding, that last inch will indeed be the last one taken.
Sipsey Street

Cheers,

= A Declaration of Separation =

==== To The Governments & People of Earth: ====
We claim the right to exist, and we will defend it.
We do not seek to overthrow anything. We do not seek to control anything. We merely
wish to be left alone.
All we ever wanted was to live in peace with our friends and neighbors. For a long, long
time we bore insults to our liberty; we took blows, we did what we could to avoid injury
and we worked through the system to get the offenses to stop. That has now changed.
We no longer see any benefit in working through the world’s systems. At some point,
working within a system becomes cowardly and immoral; for us, that point has arrived.
Regardless of the parties in power, their governments have continued to restrict, restrain
and punish us. We hereby reject them all. We hereby withdraw from them all. We hold
the ruling states of this world and all that appertains to them to be self-serving and
opposed to humanity.
We now withdraw our obedience and reclaim the right to strike back when struck. We
will not initiate force, but we do reserve the right to answer it.
We did not choose this – it was forced upon us.

==== To The Governments of Earth: ====
You are building cages for all that is human. In the name of protection, you have intruded
into all areas of human life, far exceeding the reach of any Caesar. You claim ultimate
control of our property and our decisions, of our travels and even our identities. You
claim ownership of humanity far beyond the dreams of any Emperor of any previous era.
Understand clearly: We reject your authority and we reject your legitimacy. We do not
believe that you have any right to do the things you do. You have massive power, but no
right to impose it upon us and no legitimacy. We have forsaken you. We are no longer
your citizens or your subjects.
Your systems are inherently anti-human, even if all their operators are not.
We are not merely angry young people. We are fathers and mothers; aunts, uncles and
grandparents; we are business owners and trusted employees; we are mechanics and
engineers and farmers. We are nurses and accountants and students and executives.
We are on every continent.
This is not a burst of outrage; this is a sober declaration that we no longer accept
unearned suffering as our role in life.
For long decades we sat quietly, hoping that things would turn around. We took no
actions; we suffered along with everyone else. But after having our limits pushed back
again and again, we have given up on your systems.
If our fellow inhabitants of this planet wish to accept your rule, they are free to do so.
We will not try to stop them. We, however, will no longer accept your constraints upon us.
- From now on, when you hurt us, we will bite back. If you leave us alone we will leave
you alone and you can continue to rule your subjects. We are happy to live quietly.
But if you come after us, there will be consequences.
You caused this because of your fetish for control and power. The chief men and women
among you are pathologically driven to control everyone and everything that moves upon
this planet. You have made yourselves the judge of every human activity. No god-king of
the ancient world ever had the power that your systems do.
You have created a world where only the neutered are safe and where only outlaws are free.

==== To The People of Earth: ====
We seek nothing from you. We do not want to rule you and we do not want to control you.
All we wish is to live on earth in peace. As always, we will be helpful neighbors and
generous acquaintances. We will remain honest business partners and trustworthy
employees. We will continue to be loving parents and respectful children.
We will not, however, be sacrificial animals. We reject the idea that others have a right to
our lives and our property. We will not demand anything from you, and we will no longer
acquiesce to any demands upon us. We have left that game. We reject all obligations to
any person or organization beyond honesty, fair dealing and a respect for human life.
We will shortly explain what we believe, but we are not demanding that you agree with
us. All we ask is that you do not try to stop us. Continue to play the game if you wish;
we will not try to disrupt it. We have merely walked away from it.
We wish you peace.

==== To Those Who Will Condemn Us: ====
We will ignore you.
We welcome and seek the verdict of a just God, before whom we are willing to expose
our innermost thoughts. Are you similarly willing?
We would stand openly before all mankind if it were not suicidal. Perhaps some day we
will have to accept slaughter for our crime of independence, but not yet.
Your criticism and your malice are much deeper than mere disagreements of strategy or
philosophy. You do not oppose our philosophy, you oppose our existence. Our presence
in the world means that your precious ideals are false. Some of you would rather kill us
than face the loss of your ideologies, just as those like you have either hated or killed
every sufficiently independent human.
You present yourselves to the world as compassionate, tolerant and enlightened, but we
know that your smooth words are costumes. Oh yes, we know you, servant of the state;
don’t forget, we were raised with you. We played with you in the schoolyard, we sat next
to you in the classroom. Some of us studied at the same elite universities. We watched as
you had your first tastes of power. We were the boys and girls standing next to you.
Some of us were your first victims. We are not fooled by your carefully crafted public
image.

==== What We Believe ====
#1: Many humans resent the responsibilities that are implied by consciousness. We
accept those responsibilities and we embrace consciousness. Rather than letting things
happen to us (avoiding consciousness), we accept consciousness and choose to act in our
own interest.
We do not seek the refuge of blaming others, neither do we take refuge in crowds. We are
willing to act on our personal judgment, and we are willing to accept the consequences
thereof.

#2: We believe in negative rights for all: That all humans should be free to do whatever
they wish, as long as they do not intrude upon others; that no man has a right to the life,
liberty or property of another; that we oppose aggression, fraud and coercion.

#3: We do not believe that our way of life, or any other, will make life perfect or
trouble-free. We expect crime and disagreements and ugliness, and we are prepared to
deal with them. We do not seek a strongman to step in and solve problems for us.
We agree to see to them ourselves.

#4: We believe in free and unhindered commerce. So long as exchanges are voluntary
and honest, no other party has a right to intervene – before, during or after.

#5: We believe that all individuals should keep their agreements.

#6: We believe that honestly obtained property is fully legitimate and absolute.

#7: We believe that some humans are evil and that they must be faced and dealt with.
We accept the fact that this is a difficult area of life.

#8: We believe that humans can self-organize effectively. We expect them to cooperate.
We reject impositions of hierarchy and organization.

#9: We believe that all humans are to be held as equals in all matters regarding justice.

#10: We believe that the more a man or woman cares about right and wrong, the more
of a threat he or she is perceived to be by governments.

#11: We believe that there are only two true classes of human beings: Those who wish
to exercise power upon others - either directly or through intermediaries - and those who
have no such desires.

#12: Large organizations and centralization are inherently anti-human. They must rely
upon rules rather than principles, treating humans within the organization as obedient
tools.

==== Our Plans: ====
We are building our own society. We will supplement traditional tools with networking,
cryptography, sound money, digital currency and anonymous messaging.
Our society will not be centrally controlled. It will rely solely on voluntary arrangements.
We welcome others to join us. We are looking for people who are independent creators of
value, people who act more than talk, and people who do the right thing because it is the
right thing.
We will develop our own methods of dealing with injustice, built on the principles of
negative rights, restitution, integrity and equal justice.
We do not forbid anyone from having one foot in each realm - ours and the old realm -
although we demand that they do no damage to our realm. We are fully opposed to any
use of our realm to facilitate crime in the old realm, such as the hiding of criminal
proceeds.
We expect to be loudly condemned, libeled and slandered by the authorities of the old
regime. We expect them to defend their power and their image of legitimacy with all
means available to them. We expect that many gullible and servile people will believe
these lies, at least at first.
We will consider traps laid for us to be criminal offenses.
Any who wish to join us are encouraged to distribute this declaration, to act in
furtherance of our new society, to voluntarily excel in virtues and to communicate and
cooperate with other members of the new society.

Free, unashamed men cannot be ruled.

We are The Free and The Unashamed.

The personal, as everyone's so fucking fond of saying, is political. So if some idiot politician, some power player, tries to execute policies that harm you or those you care about, take it personally. Get angry. The Machinery of Justice will not serve you here - it is slow and cold, and it is theirs. Only the little people suffer at the hands of Justice; the creatures of power slide out from under with a wink and a grin. If you want justice, you will have to claw it from them. Make it personal. Do as much damage as you can. Get your message across. That way you stand a far better chance of being taken seriously next time. Of being considered dangerous. And make no mistake about this: being taken seriously, being considered dangerous, marks the difference - the only difference in their eyes- between players and little people. Players they will make deals with. Little people they liquidate. And time and again they cream your liquidation, your displacement, your torture and brutal execution with the ultimate insult that it's just business, it's politics, it's the way of the world, it's a tough life, and that it's nothing personal.

Well, fuck them. Make it personal.'

Police Fight Police in Sao Paulo!

Striking police detectives in Sao Paulo have been involved in violent clashes with state troopers during a protest march over police pay.

Police Fight Police In Sao Paulo

Brazilian television news showed a melee as hundreds of state police in riot gear tackled plainclothes police investigators.

It came after the protesters tried to break through a barrier protecting the state government palace.

Officers fired shots, tear gas and shock bombs.

The Albert Einstein Hospital, located a few blocks from the government palace, said in a statement that it had treated 13 people who were injured in the clashes, none seriously.

It did not say whether those injured were state police officers or detectives.

Brazilian states have two separate law enforcement groups - a uniformed police force in charge of maintaining public order, and the so-called civil police who are plainclothes investigators.

In some cities there are also municipal guards in charge of protecting public property.

Detectives in Sao Paulo state have been striking for a month to demand better pay.

Markets are melting, credit is frozen and the shit is about to hit the fan. I hope all of you out there in internet-land are paying attention. All this stuff you are hearing on the news about wallstreet... it affects you. I had lunch at the office today and I was very surprised to find how many people didn't think this was going to affect them in any direct way. Believe me, it will affect you. And don't tell me "I don't use credit, so I'm OK". You see cause the tech worker turned farmer wants to grow some corn, so he goes to the bank to get a loan for some seed. The bank doesn't have any money to loan so the farmer can only grow a small bit of corn. The tortilla factory goes to the market to get some corn, unfortunately its been a crappy year and there is very little corn and that has caused to the price to spike to 20 times what it was 12 months ago. On top of that the tortilla factory cant get terms from the market as the market doesn't have any credit to extend. The CEO of the tortilla factory, Junior, is forced to buy very expensive corn for cash on the barrel head. The taqueria has been able to keep its doors open, its been run by the family for 3 generations and they all work there so workforce isnt a problem. They have been bartering with the local co-op for vegetables and spices. But to make great-grandmama's tacos they need tortillas. They manage to find a tortilla factory thats been able to keep operating, its three states away but Junior there say he can give them 30 day terms. Yay! Unfortunately interstate commerce, or actually commerce in general has been so slow there is no cheap transportation. So uncle bob gets in the dodge dart pools all the families gas and makes the trek... 3 states going and 3 states back. So you go in to the taqueria, and the cute waitress gives you a menu. And as is so common these days you see the prices are marked "MARKET PRICE". But you're feeling good, your app on iTunes is selling well in the Arab countries. So you ask after a soft taco...the waitress smiles, turns and shouts something to the kitchen in her native tongue. Turning back around she smiles again, but this time it seems a bit strained, and in a very soft almost embarrassed voice she replies... $78. SEVENTY EIGHT DOLLAR SOFT TACOS... thats how it affects you. I don't know what your situation is... But I think everyone should take a little bit of time to get ready for a couple of tight years. Secure credit NOW! Its pretty hard right now to get a line of credit... but its gonna be damn near impossible next year. Start saving money. Stock up on soft tacos.

well, the bathroom inside my fav cafe in Chicago. I positively love this place and bask in the glow of their rooibos latte. Shamefully, I am addicted to caffeine and therefore typically suck down green mate-lattes instead, but that's a topic for a different day and time.
