A tragedy that will never be forgotten

I didn't hear about it till after I got off work, but now it's the only thing that you hear about anywhere (aside from what's happening this Friday), if anything it tells you that this country happens to have a one track mind when we're over whelmed with something that takes place and makes us take a good look at ourselves. However for those of you that do read this blog, you'll notice that this is both on the My World side, as well as the political side. Personally I know that one shouldn't cross the sides, but the problem in our country is that those in politics that have not offered up condolences for the families that were involved in this tragedy, have seen something that they can be able to grasp onto and starting hitting up like crazy. I know who those types are, and they're making me sick to my stomach (and that's really hard to do these days), and I know that they're just going to do the blame game the entire time.

Problem is not in how the guns are sold or the ID's that are needed or the background checks, or the mental health state of mind, in truth it's not any one of those things, it's all of that and more combined. However saying that we need to have tighter regulations on guns won't do a damned thing, after all those tighter regulations (doesn't matter if they happen to be at the store or a bloody gun show), will only deal with the guns being sold legally, there's an entire section of gun being sold illegally, and there's no way in the world to regulate that. It's called the Black Market. Now we could always do what they did in MacGuyver and that is ship the firing pins outside of the shipment of the guns and make sure that they're never shipped together. However the problem with that are the guns that already have the pins in the guns that are stolen and resold on the Black Market as well, that's where you have another problem right there.

So in truth, you have no way to completely deal with the guns that find their way into something like this. Plus what also doesn't help is that you have the NRA making sure that the regulations never get tightened even further than they are right now. Plus every time that there's a Presidential election (doesn't matter if it happens to be a reelection or a new President coming in), the first thing that always comes up is dealing with the guns right off the bat. I've seen it for each and every single election that has taken place, and it actually gets tiring to see and hear after a while. After all this past election the nut cases came out and said that Obama was going to be taking gun rights away, in truth he actually had zero intention on doing that at all. However now that something like this has happened, he will be expected to do something, question is what will he do?

Personally for me I have no answers, I honestly wish that I did, but for something like this from a writers stand point, all I can think of is just going back in time and stopping this from ever happening. Problem with this (and mind you I write science fiction), aside from the fact that I can't do it anyway, is that once something like this made media attention as big as it's gotten, it becomes in the rules a red flag zone, meaning that it can't be changed no matter how badly one wants to do it, it's called playing God and that's entirely against the rules in real life, no one can be Him no matter how much we try.

Though on that note, there is one church that thinks they really know the Word of God, and yet they have no bloody "F"ing clue (trying to keep the blog mostly clean here), after all this baptist church has sported posters that says "God loves dead babies", and that "God hats fags" (both of which I really don't like here), and so forth. These people have zero clue to the Word of God, which I honestly believe (and have stated to friends, and might've mentioned once or twice on this blog) has to be understood with the mind of a child, after all the mind of a child is still learning and has a better understanding when it comes to learning everything that they need to learn. Just like I tell my mother (or at least try to tell her), Matthew 18:21-22 (please look it up since I really don't want to write it down here, and besides it might be written differently for your Bible compared to mine), that one must always forgive no matter what. If God forgives everyone of everything no matter what we've done in our lives, then we must do the same. I tried telling my mother that (considering that I had forgiven my wife of everything that she had done against me), and she says that there  are those that can never be forgiven, and that she doesn't think that I'm understanding the passage correctly. Problem on her end is that she wants to understand the Bible with the mind of an adult (she even has a Bible for Dummies book at her place), you can't you can read it with the eyes of an adult, but then you must understand it with the mind of a child, it's the only way that you can. After all Jesus told his followers that they must be like that of a child in order to understand and enter the kingdom of God. Now personally I don't like religion at all period, yes I'm Christian, but I have a faith, not a religion. Religion was created to control others, and to make sure that they don't have free will, but a true faith not only has free will, but a better understanding of everything around them, and a mind to think with.

The GOP (and Republicans in politics in general) don't like the thought of having people around them with a free will and minds of their own, that's why they use religion to try to bring everything under their thumb. However these days people are throwing off the shackles of the controlling GOP and religious institutions out there and making sure that they have a mind of their own and voice of their own to speak with. Only problem is, the GOP refuses to listen to what the people really want and are refusing to do anything that they need to for the country. Instead, they're trying to make sure that they ones that are paying them are getting what they want and not the middle and lower classes. It's made for a completely corrupt government on their side, and the belief is bleeding over to the Dems who aren't taking any money (however if they are, I don't know about it and that's a fact).

Believe me this is something that is going to be fought over for the longest time, and there doesn't seem to be an end light to any of this at all. I wish honestly that there was.

Religious freedom being trampled on

Now I'm Christian and I will continue to be faithful, however when it comes to others, I'm not going to force my beliefs onto others, unlike those in the Christian community who believe that everyone should be faithful to God. Well we have a problem with them right now and that's the fact that they want to change what history says. Currently history says that this country was not founded as a Christian nation, that it was founded with a religious freedom unseen anywhere else in the world. However right now the zealots in this country believe that this country was founded as a Christians country and will do what ever it takes to make the current and younger generations to believe the same thing. All to the point that they're not only willing to violate the Constitution of the United States, they want to completely rewrite it as well. The only problem they have is that they can't do that, so they're going through every under handed thing that they can get into a fester in them like a wound knowing that they can do what ever they want and call it religious freedom. The only problem is that you can't call it religious freedom if it happens to force others to what you want them to worship in the first place.

However what's currently going on in this country is that not only the Republicans, but those of the church community are trying to force their beliefs onto others saying that they're trying to save the souls of those around them. Gee the Catholics tried to do that during the Dark Ages and it lead to one of the bloodiest periods of our world history that no one will ever forget. The problem here is that with the advent of today's tech, leaving the past behind or trying to forget it, it's not something that's going to happen any time soon. It's just like with what's going on with this past election, the GOP was trying to get everyone to forget what Bush did in order to take over yet again, and the problem with that was that we weren't never going to forget what Bush did to this country. Hell some people actually believe that Reagan's trickle down theory actually worked because Clinton had a surplus, and not because he knew how to balance the books. Bullshit, Clinton not only knew how to balance the budget, but he also did the one thing that Bush's Tax Cuts have killed from happening, and that was that he taxed the rich. If it wasn't for the GOP not wanting to loose any more money, we would've gotten rid of those damned tax cuts ages ago. However right now, the GOP don't ever want to get rid of them so that way they'll continue to be extremely rich and can make us suffer for it all, the middle and lower classes that is.

Now when it comes to the religious side of the entire ball, that's the one thing that has been going back and forth for bloody years, however when court judges start saying that nothing can top Almighty God, that's when we happen to have a problem in this country, and that's the fact that the first amendment prohibits God from being used in anything government at all. Yet people say, then why is there "In God We Trust" printed on the cash or "Under God" in the pledge of allegiance. Those were added back during the McCarthy era when we were fighting Communism. They were not there back when the country was founded. However those points right there was the foot hold that the Christians zealots needed in order to get in and start festering like a virus that didn't need to be spread. And the worst part about all of this is that they they're going to try to get all of history rewritten and make it so that certain parts of the constitution are rewritten so that God has to be placed in everything. I know that this is the direction that everything is going in and you can count on it to happen, and GOP will be the BIGGEST supporters of this, and those that know that this is a violation of the Constitution.

The one good thing about all of this is that with all of the strife that we currently have going on, there's no way in the world that they can come up with the 2/3rds majority in order to be able to amend the Constitution to eliminate or rewrite the first amendment or any other part so that God is included in the Constitution making this a full Christian country which it is not in anyway shape or form. The founders were not Christian, and the Deceleration of Independence does not have 27 Biblical verses in it (yeah saw that in a video from a church presentation that took place at the Fresno Rescue Mission. That church is North Pointe Community Church and they had presented a video that said that God needed to be put back into our country, and even had a video that said that the Deceleration of Independence has 27 Biblical verses written into it. That right there was a bold face lie and I pointed that out to a friend of mine who (at first) didn't believe it (he read the Bible on a daily basis), but when I showed him the document and he looked it over, he saw for himself that they had lied. I'm sorry but this is wrong, lying just to try to win people over to Jesus isn't right at all, but that's what Christians now are doing on a daily basis. They believe that they need to do what ever it takes to get their message across, and they'll stop at nothing to get it done.

The only reason why I put a link to them is so that those that know the truth will know that there are churches out there that are trying to lie to people to sway them over to Christ, and that they're willing to do what it takes to do it. Personally I believe that this needs to stop, but considering that I'm one person with a blog and next to no followers, but all readers only, I doubt that this is going to happen any time soon at all.

Another location that this is actually taking place at, is West Point Military Academy, they're actually getting the Plebs (or Probies, those that are new) to get more privileges by taking part in religious activities including choir singing, and extra prayer, and calling the place a religious institution, which it is not by far. This military academy is violating the Constitution of the United States by doing what they're doing in the first place. The same document that they're sworn to protect and they're belateningly violating that same document. This is something that needs to stop, other wise, where is it going to stop, that right there is the question that seriously needs to be asked big time.

After all, the last thing I need is someone coming up to me asking me if I happen to know Jesus, and I got that all the time down in Fresno (it's another reason why I can't stand that city and county any more, they push it all the time down there to the point that you just want to hit them). I'm sorry but saying that I don't know Jesus is not only an insult, but it's basically saying that I'm going to go right to Hell if I don't stop and pray right then and there. Come on people wake up to the world around you.

An Impeachable offence that could also include prison with out trial

This morning I never thought that I would ever see this going around, but there's a petition going around to end the reign terror that's gotten a grip on Washington, that terror has a name as well, his name is Grover Norquist, and he's been having the Republicans sign a pledge not to bring forth any taxes at all, and to bring about the end of our government. (the definition of Terrorist by Merriam-Webster: the systematic use of terror especially as a means of coercion) which this man is using to get his pledge signed. And the kicker is, that when it comes right down to it, is not only is this an impeachable offense to anyone that signs that pledge in the first place, but under the Patriot Act (which Bush, with the help of the Majority Republicans that he had with him, to help bring it into place in the first place) constitutes a treasonable offense which could be considerable for prison with out trail. With the exception of those with diplomatic immunity (though the Patriot Act covers that as well), those that are currently in Washington right now could face this, and I don't really think that they realize it either.

Now since the word terrorist or terrorism was never given a definition beyond what's listed above, it basically means striking terror into someone to get what they want, and that's what Grover Norquist is doing in order to get the pledges. If the Republican doesn't sign the pledge for no taxes, then he does what he tells them he'll do and tries to bring down the Republicans career by getting them voted out of office. And since the Republicans were the ones that helped bring in that Act in the first place, they are subject to it as well since what they are doing goes not only against their oath of office, it also goes against the will of the country and is considered unpatriotic in the end.

This Petition (you must sign up for an account in order to sign the petition, I already did and have signed it myself) here is set that we will help bring about the end of the Grover Norquist reign of terror that he's bringing to our country. He wants to end our country for good and that needs to end forever.

This is what the bastard said: ""Our goal is to inflict pain. It is not good enough to win; it has to be a painful and devastating defeat. We're sending a message here. It is like when the king would take his opponent's head and spike it on a pole for everyone to see."
"Bipartisanship is
 another name for date rape."
"We are trying to change the tones in the state capitals -- and turn them toward bitter nastiness and partisanship."
"[Democrats] will only become acceptable once they are comfortable in their minority status. Any farmer will tell you that certain animals run around and are unpleasant, but when they've been fixed, then they are happy and sedate." Grover Norquist, Enemy of the USA Government Source: http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Grover_Norquist"

A Professor has made a video that is something everyone should see and hear: "Impeachable offence! Professor Robert Thurman of Columbia University draws attention to the treasonous behavior of congress persons who have made pledges to Grover Norquist that contradict their pledges made to the United States as congress persons. Source: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8fl0LklQvQI"

And this video with the words coming right from the horses mouth (sort of speak), tell why this guy is not only an idiot, but also a terrorist as well and needs to be stopped: "Norquist: At 1:40 you will hear a man describe politicians committing a treasonous act against the government of the USA. Source:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjlhcILFtf4"

Now this video here is different, but it also explains a lot when it comes to why Norquist is wrong: "Why Grover is wrong? Source:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wa2wmADrxNk"

If Norquist ever ran for an office (and I honestly did think that he was an elected official, he's not, my mistake right there), we can all be assured that about one second after he took the oath of office that he would violate it, as he's having other Republicans do at the current time. This man needs to be stopped, and to say that we need spending levels to be brought back down to Reagan era levels, he really doesn't know what in the world he's talking about at all.

I know that I've included a ton of links for this one, but everything is just too good not to check out. This man (and I know that I keep saying it and I will continue to say it till it's being reported that he's not only been stopped, but that he's been arrested for acts of terrorism against the United States of America. He's currently the worst thing to happen to our country in a long time, and he's not working for the American people he's working against us. After all he says that he don't need taxes to get things done in our country, just wondering, but how in the world does he expect everything in our country to either work or get fixed at all, it does take money to do all of those things, and since I doubt that the rich like Trump will actually be willing to donate the money to get all of that done in the first place, we do need taxes in order to get everything done.

When I called earlier for Republicans to be recalled out of office, I'm not backing off of that, however for those that have signed the the Norquist oath to violate their oath of office, they need to be impeached and taken out even sooner than a recall would allow. Besides if they were recalled, and they won, then it still wouldn't matter at that point. So for those that signed the Norquist oath, they need to be just straight up impeached period and taken out of politics. I'm sorry but once you violate that oath of office to the United States that you took, you've just committed treason against our country, and since we still happen to be in the middle of war time that is a serious offence right there. Take a serious look at those that were elected into office, if they signed that oath, they are not only committing an act of treason, they've violated their oath of office to the American people period.

Ending the "Potomac Two-Step" FOREVER!!!

I once read in a Tom Clancy novel (though I don't remember which book that it was, someone had said to the main character, it's what we call the Potomac Two-Step, it's how things get done around here, (Jack Ryan, I knew that I would remember the characters name, good book series there too, however trying to figure out where every book in the series belongs, considering that they were all written out of order to begin with is a beast of a problem). The response was, that's not how I do things. I personally loved the response and laughed at the fact that Jack Ryan was willing to do what it took to get things done and kick ass in the process.

With what Grover Norquist is doing by having the Republicans sign a no tax pledge, has basically screwed over Washington, and made sure that nothing gets done at all. Which is in a way the Potomac Two-Step since everyone that signs it is falling in line with what he happens to be saying and for the few that are telling him to go screw himself over, they usually get screwed over by him later on. Of course what doesn't help is that when it comes to the taxes on the rich, they follow Norquist to a fault since it happens to help them, and the idiot TEA baggers who are following the Republicans and aren't following their own minds for once.

We seriously need to change Washington and we need to get it changed before 2014, otherwise things are going to be worse off than we could even think of for when our kids start voting. It's not a matter of waiting for a certain time to get things changed for the better, we need to get certain people out of office like yesterday. I thought that California was the only state that had a recall, but it turned out that I was wrong on that one when another state (tried and failed) to recall their governor. Now that's something we need to do when it comes to the Republicans in office, is in each of their states, go through and do a mass recall on all of them and get them out of office period and start getting everything back to running in Washington the way that it should be in the first place. Because if we don't recall them now and get them voted out of office, then we know that they're going to have a change to gain even more influence before 2014 and make sure that they happen to stay in office. We need to change that here and now, and I'll continue to say this till I start seeing that states are running recalls to get rid of the Republican that is for their state in Washington. If we don't do this, this country will fail big time, and the Republicans will be the ones that will be fully in control over everything and they will turn a blind eye to anything that doesn't help them out at all. So yeah we need to stop them before 2014.
