			<title>White Slaves in Early America</title>
			<description>&lt;p&gt;
	&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.whattheproblemis.com/documents/ra/they-were-slaves.pdf&quot;&gt;http://www.whattheproblemis.com/doc...slaves.pdf&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
	&lt;br /&gt;
	&lt;blockquote&gt; &amp;ldquo;They were of two sorts, first such as were brought over by masters of ships, to be sold as servants, such as we call them my dear,&amp;rsquo; says she, &amp;lsquo;but they are more properly called slaves.&amp;rdquo; &amp;mdash;Daniel Defoe, Moll Flanders&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
	&lt;br /&gt;
	&lt;img src='http://s017.radikal.ru/i442/1201/83/97e9e1f4f258.jpg' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
	&lt;br /&gt;
	&lt;blockquote&gt;This is a history of White people, that has never been told in any coherent form, largely because most modern historians have, for reasons of politics or psychology, refused to recognize White slaves in early America as just that.&lt;br /&gt;
	&lt;br /&gt;
	Today, not a tear is shed for the sufferings of millions of our own enslaved forefathers, 200 years of White slavery in America, have been almost completely obliterated, from the collective memory of the American people.&lt;br /&gt;
	&lt;br /&gt;
	Who wants to be reminded that half, perhaps as many as thirds, of the original American colonists came here, not of their own free will, but kidnapped, shanghaied, impressed, duped, beguiled, and yes, in chains?

			<title>Islamic Law says: Death for abortion not for homosexuality or adultery!</title>
			<description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Islamic Law provides an alternative prosecution protocol to the current powerless State and Federal statutes, in the matter of the ongoing slaughter of the unborn!&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;img src='http://s54.radikal.ru/i146/1007/12/3d0e487b56a9.gif' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To willfully kill an unborn child is a crime against the law of man and a crime against the law of God, witness numerous injunctions against unlawful killing generally and abortion / infanticide specifically in the Koran, which also describes the only circumstances when deliberate homicide is lawful,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Being just retaliation for unlawful killing following a fair trial, during the course of Jihad or just war against an aggressor, who must first have waged war upon oneself, ones children, ones family or ones country, or for capital corruption,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Injunctions and penalties endorsed in Mosaic Law and Christian Testament, which Moslems recognize as proceeding from God.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since 1970 abortion has taken billions of lives, this warns the guilty that their lives are forfeit in accordance with AL-ISLAM, anticipating the demise of virtually the entire medical, political and law enforcement establishments world wide.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It anticipates the fulfillment of the prophesy of Jesus Christ that, &quot;children shall rise up against their parents and shall put them to death,&quot; and heralds a new age of human history. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;Feedback:&lt;/b&gt; What about .. capital punishment for adultery or homosexuality?&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Koran does not endorse CP for either of those offenses, those who say it does have misinterpreted the scriptures, while persons carrying out executions for either of those offenses should themselves be prosecuted in a capital court!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;Feedback:&lt;/b&gt; Do you condemn any abortion for any reason?&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Yes!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;Feedback:&lt;/b&gt; What if the mother's life is at risk?&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Natural miscarriage often occurs in entropic pregnancy situations, where the developing infant is not in the womb but someplace else, which does not give doctors or anyone else the right to kill!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;Feedback:&lt;/b&gt; Or the foetus is developing with abnormalities that would deny it a reasonable quality life?&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you were brought to trial after killing because you decided that &quot;a reasonable quality of life&quot; was impossible for the deceased, then went before a jury composed of those who are &quot;gettin' along ok,&quot; despite any judgments you would have made regarding their physical and or mental properties,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And even as Master Confucius assures us &quot;for every day there is a dog,&quot; and that, &quot;every dog has his day,&quot; would not the day be theirs after all.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;Feedback:&lt;/b&gt; Or if in mid or late pregnancy, the mother's life becomes endangered or there is a risk of her dying during childbirth..&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With proper care and since the pregnancy has continued to the late stage without natural miscarriage, there should be no reason that such a situation would arise.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The woman in question will be attended by experienced in midwifery personnel, who will determine whether a Caesarian section is required, while those who made the initial prognosis will be put to the sword for making mischief in the matter of a capital offense!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;Feedback:&lt;/b&gt; Where specifically in the Qur'an is killing the unborn child mentioned?&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;In the name of Allah, the Beneficent the Merciful&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Say, &quot;Come let me tell you what your Lord has really prohibited for you: You shall not set up idols besides Him, you shall honor your parents, you shall not kill your children from fear of poverty - we provide for you and for them. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You shall not commit gross sins, obvious or hidden, you shall not kill - Allah has made life sacred - except in the course of justice. These are His commandments to you, that you may understand.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Surah 6: Al An'am - Cattle, Livestock - Verse 151&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Slay not your children, fearing a fall to poverty, We shall provide for them and for you, the slaying of them is great sin, and come not near unto adultery, for it is an abomination and an evil way. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And slay not the life which Allah hath forbidden save with right, whoso is slain wrongfully, We have given power unto his heir, but let him not commit excess in slaying, he will be helped. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Sura 17: Bani Israel - The Children of Israel - Verse 31&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;Feedback:&lt;/b&gt; You're wrong, the Koran does recommend the death penalty for adultery &amp;amp; homosexuality.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not wrong at all..&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;In the name of Allah, the Beneficent the Merciful&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The woman and the man guilty of adultery or fornication flog each of them with a hundred stripes: let not compassion move you in their case in a matter prescribed by Allah if ye believe in Allah and the Last Day: and let a party of the Believers witness their punishment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Surah 24 An Nur - The Light - Verse 2&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Remember when he said unto his folk : Will ye commit abomination such as no nation ever did before you, for ye practice your lusts on men in preference to women : ye are indeed a people transgressing beyond bounds.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Surah 7 Al Aaraf - The Heights - Verse 80&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;i&gt;In the case of adultery where similar text appears to endorse death, Jesus tells us to err on the side of mercy, while in response to homosexuality, the text expresses outrage and repugnance - it does not provide the death penalty! MT&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;Feedback:&lt;/b&gt; Islam does NOT provide the death penalty for ABORTION.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Oh yes it does,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We prescribed .. that life is for life.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;The Koran, Sura 5 - The Table, verse 45. &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This passage endorses execution in response to abortion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;Feedback:&lt;/b&gt; ..there is a death penalty for unlawful intercourse.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Were you in court charged with murder after arbitrarily carrying out a death sentence based on the perception outlined above,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;In the name of Allah, the Beneficent the Merciful&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The woman and the man guilty of adultery or fornication flog each of them with a hundred stripes..&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Surah 24 An Nur - The Light - Verse 2.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The preceding text would be read to the court, as well as the injunction from the prophet Jesus Christ that where contrary text appears believers should err on the side of mercy, your response will be recorded then you will be executed!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As far as retroactive legislation is concerned, where killings have taken place either within the auspices of the family, or as a result of a court decision based on blood lust in defiance of the law of Allah as outlined above, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So will those cases be prosecuted in capital courts, no matter that the crime was fifty sixty seventy years old, and the political regime of the day was compliant.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;Feedback:&lt;/b&gt; As far as abortion, Mufti Muhammad ibn Adam al Kawthari goes into the details and nuances in his fatwa.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Al Kawthari can shove his fatwas where the Sun don't shine, furthermore I would wish to examine his record in the matter of casting the true against the false as per the instruction in the Koran,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We cast the truth against the falsehood, so that it breaks its head, and it vanishes; and woe to you for what you describe;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;The Koran: Chapter 21 The Prophets, verse 18.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I would expect to see a full book of internet posts decrying the 911 attacks as a Zionist sponsored False Flag op for instance, as well as calls for Barak Obama to be prosecuted via the capital court system for similarly turning from the same hard evidence, were he unable to produce links I should then form the conclusion that he is indeed an unbeliever.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

			<title>Is this really &quot;Rage?&quot;</title>
			<description>&lt;p&gt;Will somebody turn out the light?&amp;#160; The music’s over, and has been for quite sometime now.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;I, like many others, travelled half way around the world to bear witness to the long awaited return of Rage Against the Machine at last year’s Coachella festival, fully expecting this performance to be a once in a lifetime event and the beginning of some kind of revolution. I had been inspired to travel at great lengths by the band’s guitar player, Tom Morello, who as the band’s spokesman had this to say prior to the event: “This is going to be a one off show, to deliver a final knockout blow to the Bush administration.” Well, if that performance and the band’s continued abuse of position is the best that music has got to offer in the form of hope and political attack, then we’re already f***ed! And I find that a sad, sad state of affairs to be in.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-indent: 0.5in;&quot;&gt;Having listened to Rage over the years, I was overjoyed to hear that they were re-uniting. I travelled to &lt;st1:place w:st=&quot;on&quot;&gt;&lt;st1:state w:st=&quot;on&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot;&gt;California&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/st1:state&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt; expecting to find the festival venue full of Revolutionaries and political awareness, but instead it seemed as though the crowd was made up of rich kid trend setter/followers who had gone and bought a Che Guevarra T-shirt for a day out in the desert, and borrowed their dads’ Mercedes to get there. As for political awareness, the only thing I saw was a photo shoot for an ‘Impeach Bush’ group and a small stand about &lt;st1:country-region w:st=&quot;on&quot;&gt;&lt;st1:place w:st=&quot;on&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot;&gt;Vietnam&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; vets. The kids organizing the photo shoot were being booed at by passers by and one year later, I’m still looking on the internet, trying to find the photos they took.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-indent: 0.5in;&quot;&gt;For a band with such a draw as Rage Against the Machine, I found all this to be a little odd. Sure I expected all the security checks to get in and out of the grounds, I could understand the lameness with regards to the ‘sheep herding’ tactics that were prevalent all over the festival, and the massive police presence which suppressed the whole vibe and feel of the event was no surprise, but what I couldn’t understand was how a band like Rage wasn’t using this opportunity to do more to enlighten people and actually&amp;#160;accomplish what they had supposedly set out to do. Why hadn’t they insisted the event organizers give space to outlets offering information about important issues, issues exposing hypocrisies in the world, issues inviting people to participate in change, issues like 9/11 truth, issues&amp;#160; that Rage have built a career out of over the years? I couldn’t understand it. It wouldn’t take a genius to look around the web for grassroots groups and organizations that would have been only too pleased to promote important ideas and offer support at this kind of event. With the kind of resources that a band like Rage has at there disposal, I fully expected to see a more direct attempt at action, but it wasn’t to be.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-indent: 0.5in;&quot;&gt;For most people, the first two days of the event were a battle to survive. The blistering heat was literally killing people and it was only in the cool evenings, when the blood in your head had stopped boiling, that you could try to fully embrace the music that was on offer. This changed on Sunday when you could actually smell revolution in the air. The police Chopper had kept most people awake throughout the previous night, and despite the already overwhelming police presence, the number of officers on duty had been increased and the security checks seemed more stringent. Still, there was a wild rumor circulating the campsite that the Big Brother eye that stood overlooking the stage was to be brought down during Rages performance. It was a brilliant idea of mine, but in the end, the planned destruction and carnage resulted in nothing more than some nice decoration using toilet rolls and police tape, and not of my own doing.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;Manu Chau gave a soul inspiring performance that in many ways was the highlight of the festival. They did as much if not more than any other act for political awareness before Rage hit the stage.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-indent: 0.5in;&quot;&gt;All at once, the lights went out and the red star on a black flag appeared along with a group of V.I.P fans sat right on the stage. What the f***?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-indent: 0.5in;&quot;&gt;Anyway, Rage ran through their set, which covered most of their hits and all in all, I can’t say it was a bad performance. The sound for the first track or two was a little off, but they fixed that soon enough. Zack gave a small speech which the whole world seemed to be waiting for in the middle of Wake Up. He called for the Bush administration to be ‘Hung, tried, and shot’ which I thought was nice, but other than that he didn’t say anything to the crowd, which I thought was ridiculous. To wait seven years to see a man in his position say nothing with the compassion and hatred that he once had, (take his speech at &lt;st1:city w:st=&quot;on&quot;&gt;&lt;st1:place w:st=&quot;on&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot;&gt;Stockholm&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:city&gt; 93 for example) was a major, major disappointment. Soon Rage left the stage and the lights went out and that was the end of that.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-indent: 0.5in;&quot;&gt;We all got herded out of the festival via one exit ( the previous two nights had seen many exits available) only to be confronted by riot police toting rubber bullet guns. There was no call to use them, but it seemed that the police were way more prepared than Rage. The knockout blow to Bush never came. I don’t think they even had him on the ropes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-indent: 0.5in;&quot;&gt;The sad conclusion is that despite this gig being a “one time only” concert, Rage had already signed up to three more concerts that we all received flyers for on the way out. And still one year later, they continue to announce further gigs throughout the world on an almost weekly basis at events sponsored by such corporations as Coca Cola, Clear Channel, and Ticketmaster, the sole distributors of Rage tickets. Depending on where you stand this is either the greatest (and cheapest) marketing comeback of a band ever or the biggest sell out and perfect example of hypocrisy to date by any group of musicians.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-indent: 0.5in;&quot;&gt;Despite the fact that Rage continue to sell out venues and festivals worldwide, offering nothing more to fans than a nostalgic trip down memory lane, whilst delivering no signs of hope or direction ( and at the same time taking in large amounts of money from our pockets and the pockets of corporate psychopaths), we the fans buy it up and give them the opportunity to do so. Why shouldn’t they keep it up? Apparently, we want this to happen&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;span&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160; &lt;/span&gt;There are a lot of problems in this world, problems we all face yet are not all fully aware of. We find ourselves looking to other people for the answers. People from the past, people like Rage Against the Machine, and any number of other musical icons that are reappearing. But what is actually so different? They don’t seem to be using their power of choice. They have gone through the channels of Ticketmaster and their fraudulent and morally devoid comrades. Of course, they could have distributed tickets on a more grassroots basis, performed in more independent venues, and started the much needed conversations and actions to take the corporate and governmental f***ers and their terrifying injustices down. &lt;span&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-indent: 0.5in;&quot;&gt;But these bands are from a different era, an era that is proving to no longer be relevant. Rage were once warriors, but they are not the commanders of a rebellious army any more than the Spice Girls. Zack is no longer the voice for mobilizing an evolution of society or psyche. They did what they did, but their time has come and gone. It’s time we stopped reminiscing and looking to past icons for answers. We need to forge our own answers. Zack once said “if you’re not a part of the solution, you’re a part of the problem,” and I couldn’t agree more. So now I ask Zack, are you really still a part of the solution?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

			<title>We're all completely FUC##</title>
			<description>&lt;p&gt;At least in the ol days (lates80's) as we sat and watched a lame duck for president sell out the country to foreign interests, whilst a flurry of perverted democratic nominees rolled by loosing election after election, we could all sit by and laugh at the state of affiars and get some relief as Ann Richards would say &quot;He was born with a silver foot in his mouth.&quot; We could BLAME someone. There WAS SOMEONE to blame.&amp;#160; Now who do we blame&gt;?&amp;#160; Nafta has come and gone, the corporations are gone.. jobs gone, money devalued, homes forclosed. In those years you could say, HEY MAN, You made this happen. Today, We look in the mirror and &quot;Note to self, We're to blame&quot;. We sat in our living rooms all lollygaged whilst a paid political assasin lulled us into false belief NAFTA was Good for us.&amp;#160; Now, ITS TO LATE. Headed down the road of false illusions, we're well into the North American Union. Pretty soon, The chuckwagons going to get rolled out!&amp;#160; HEY MORONS, The dollars devalued... Use the Amero.&amp;#160; And like the morons before us, we will lap this up and suck it down like true piglets led to the slaughter.&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;NO one is going to stop it.&amp;#160; We had our chance to stop this 20 years ago, but instead, we elected or own demise time and time again. We buy the lie time after time.&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We're all completely FUC@%!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

			<title>tent city</title>
			<description>&lt;p&gt;Finding the vampires of &lt;st1:city w:st=&quot;on&quot;&gt;Los Angeles&lt;/st1:city&gt; too much to bear, we made our way east to &lt;st1:place w:st=&quot;on&quot;&gt;&lt;st1:city w:st=&quot;on&quot;&gt;Ontario&lt;/st1:city&gt;,  &lt;st1:state w:st=&quot;on&quot;&gt;California&lt;/st1:state&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt;. We heard about a community of homeless people there that had set up camp in tents, so we decided that it would be worth a look.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;Located only 40 miles from central Los Angeles, Tent City of Ontario is a community of people, whom for such reasons as house foreclosure, illness, homelessness and general hardship, have been forced to set up camp with nothing more than makeshift shelters and tents as homes. &lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman';&quot;&gt;The community is tucked away at the back of Ontario Airport and proves quite tricky to locate. Not very many of the locals in the area know exactly where it was. Those we asked know that it exists, but not where. This is hardly surprising considering its location, tucked under the very noisy &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman';&quot;&gt;take-off flight paths of the airport and also alongside the busy railway.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman';&quot;&gt;The surrounding neighborhood is definitely poverty stricken. Empty home lots lay vacant and it is hard to tell if houses once stood on them or not. Of the few local houses in the area that are still standing, there aren’t many that don’t require major improvements. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman';&quot;&gt;Many have holes in the roofs, however about half of them still appear to be inhabited. One of the lots houses a couple of cramped R.V.s and it looked like a family is living on it. We noticed two kids and a dog playing in amongst the garbage that was overflowing from one of the abandoned pick up trucks on the property. It seemed like a grim environment for anyone to be brought up in. We were unable to tell whether or not the lot would be capable of hooking up to electric power, plumbing, or running water. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman';&quot;&gt;Tent City itself has been in existence for at least a year and houses approximately 150 people, although one report claims that until March 2008, it housed nearer 400 (http://www.latimes.com/news/printedition/california/la-me-tentcity25mar25,1,5813554.story). The noise polluted and unbearably dusty encampment once housed people from all over the states, however recent city actions to improve the area have made it only acce&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman';&quot;&gt;ssible to &lt;st1:state w:st=&quot;on&quot;&gt;&lt;st1:place w:st=&quot;on&quot;&gt;Ontario&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:state&gt; residents. All others are being moved on (read: forced to leave).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a title=&quot;onb00054.JPG&quot; href=&quot;http://www.doyouknowyourdead.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/onb00054.JPG&quot;&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;388&quot; height=&quot;292&quot; align=&quot;right&quot; alt=&quot;onb00054.JPG&quot; src=&quot;http://www.doyouknowyourdead.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/onb00054.JPG&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman';&quot;&gt;The camp is currently divided up into three areas. The main area, which houses nearly 130 identical tents neatly in line and of uniform design, is a result of the local city’s effort to clean the area up. The other two sections are “old Tent City,” the community that existed before the city got involved, and the caravan park, which contains the community’s rundown cars, vans, pick-ups, caravans, and motor homes, which also formed organically. The latter two are systematically being taken apart and made illegal with the ever growing ordinances imposed daily on the community.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman';&quot;&gt;      The city  claims to have spent over  $100,000, creating the 24 hour security&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;file-link image&quot;&gt; and newly fenced encampment. To the eye this area looks like a massive improvement from the conditions people were previously living in, and on adjacent fields, still are. With fresh wood chippings covering the dusty field, and several porta-potties (provided by the lowest bidder to the local government), it is hard to see the faults and newly created problems that have arisen with the corporate/governmental take over of Tent City. And even though the city only supplies 2 cold showering facilities, anyone would think this was a step in the right direction. However, local residents seem to think differently. We spoke with Jack, a resident of Tent City and homeless person for several years, who gave us the lowdown on what’s going on.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;file-link image&quot;&gt;“You see this area right here (Jack is pointing to “old Tent City,” and the caravan park, the areas where all those not eligible for a spot in new Tent City are currently staying). This was the center of Tent City, and now look at it!” All that remains are several tents, many of which appear to be abandoned, various piles of scrap metal that people are scurrying around collecting, and countless other piles of junk furniture and rubbish. There are remnants of a bustling community, of a tent city that was fully inhabited, a place that would have been relatively safe and certainly inviting for a homeless person. The effects of the city’s clamp down are hauntingly obvious. In one corner of the field, a few people are gathered round, starting a bonfire. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;file-link image&quot;&gt;“Everyone is stressed today. The police are saying we have to move.” Jack informs us that the authorities are coming to “clear up” this area in the next few days. By “clear up,” he means dispose of everything there and then prohibit the area from its tenants, an action Jack certainly doesn’t seem to approve of.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;file-link image&quot;&gt;“Them tents were donated to us by the church and other people, why do they just have to throw them away? Why can’t they donate them to some other people who need them?”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;file-link image&quot;&gt;He also informed us of some of the new rules around the place. Despite the fact that Tent City is on public property, one is not allowed to enter the area without obtaining a permit. Those eligible to live in Ontario’s new enclosed version of Tent City must:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;file-link image&quot;&gt;1) be official residents of Ontario, CA&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;file-link image&quot;&gt;2) never have had a criminal record, regardless of how small or dated it might be&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;file-link image&quot;&gt;3) leave behind all pets&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;file-link image&quot;&gt;4) re-apply for entry every 90 days. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;file-link image&quot;&gt;But even those that have qualified and obtained a permit are denied basic needs that they once had the freedom to pursue before the city’s take over of the tent community. For instance, tenants are denied entry between the hours of 10 PM and 6AM. Additionally, small fires for heat and cooking are refused, and any furniture besides camping gear is denied. This means that folks forced to relocate behind the fenced in area must leave their mattresses, couches, and cookers a few hundred feet away to perish in the fields they once inhabited and are soon to be restricted from.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;file-link image&quot;&gt;There’s also a huge effort to keep the non-homeless public away from Tent City. We had arrived with food to donate, and were told by an officer in the newly constructed wooden security hut that we weren’t allowed to be in the area whatsoever, and that if we wanted to donate food we would have to call a number and arrange it. Arrange what? Here we were with a bag full of food and a few hundred feet across the way were hungry people. But as we found out, this was just a small example of the degrading rules being imposed and enforced in the area. We decided not to leave on the officer’s request, and stood talking with Jack near “old Tent City.” When we walked perhaps twenty feet to take pictures just outside the city funded “new” Tent City, a local police officer asked for us to be escorted away by a private security guard, because we weren’t carrying permits. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;file-link image&quot;&gt;The freedoms of Tent City tenants and visitors are being dissolved as the jurisdictions pile up. The community is being patrolled and rebuilt by the lowest bidding companies. Homeless folks from around the south west once fled to this area in hopes of refuge, safety, and community. Now they are finding themselves uninvited and back on the streets. If the local homeless do qualify to stay, it is under a constant watchful, controlling eye- an eye that belongs to private security companies funded by the Ontario City tax payers.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;We talked to Rebecca and Sean, two residents of the soon to be restricted “old Tent City,” who were equally as dismayed as Jack. Rebecca used to work a few towns over in Stater Brothers, a local grocery store. She was injured on the job and “from there, it was a domino effect. I couldn’t pay my rent and was on the streets very soon.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;As for Sean, he doesn’t meet the recently imposed qualifications to stay in Tent City feels the city has done nothing for him. “They still look on me as a criminal. On my record, I am a criminal, but I haven’t done anything in 4 years and 8 months.” He is certain that more tent cities will be popping up as a result of mass house foreclosures and a tumbling economy. He gazes around at the large neighborhood around us and says “Everywhere you look, this is just the fruit. You can’t see the root. I don’t know what the root is. Maybe it’s the economy, maybe it’s American society.” He shrugs his shoulders and just behind him, a rent-a-cop pauses in his car and stares out at us from across the block.&lt;/p&gt;

			<title>Flying Pigs</title>
			<description>&lt;div&gt;The belief in University education is a heavy peice of machinery with the most loyal of cogs. I went through the rigourous experience of boarding school and my biggest motivation was that, &quot;I&#180;m going to get into a prestigious university, and I&#180;m going to have fun and freedom!&quot; And then I got a fat envelope with a congratulatory acceptance letter from NYU and a contract to sign that said I must pay back all $100,000, that I, as a seventeen year old kid, was going to borrow over the next four years. So, I proudly bolted myself into debt in exchange for four whole years of Enlightenment, a Golden Resume, and some weekend Decadence.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;I tried my hand at it for two years and nixed the last two after too many infuriatingly pointless required courses, a stodgy genetically modified university meal program, and swimming- no- treading water in a dense foggy swamp of test taking, leather boot clad, flying pigs-- classmates.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;When was I ever going to learn about and experience the things that were vital and mind opening? Instead of pursuing interests, I was given impersonal, uninspiring bullshit professors, the type that never learn your name and try to relate to their students with &quot;Who&#180;s vacationed in &lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot; id=&quot;lw_1199560470_0&quot; style=&quot;cursor: hand; border-bottom: #0066cc 1px dashed&quot;&gt;Italy&lt;/span&gt;? Isn&#180;t it fabulous?&quot; Instead of talking about the criminal legislation involved in the &lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot; id=&quot;lw_1199560470_1&quot; style=&quot;cursor: hand; border-bottom: #0066cc 1px dashed&quot;&gt;Iraq&lt;/span&gt; war, I was assigned to buy a 70 dollar opera ticket as a way of understanding world cultures. Courses like this were so saturated in the &quot;pearls&quot; of Western tradition- we rarely peaked out from under the veil of Glorious Capitalism or production based thinking. Whether it was a required dose of art history or environmental studies teaching us about &quot;the realities of global warming,&quot; everything was set up for us to bow down to the great Western thinkers and hardly question the system we were born into. The point was just to understand the perscribed histories and facts, and spit it back out to earn a passing grade. Furthermore, this &quot;academic practice&quot; catered to cheating, plagairising students. In nearly every class I attended, there would be kids texting at their seats, pens idle on the desk during whole lectures. The texting did not cease during exams, especially in the science lectures where curroption zapped through the air from phone to phone. Where were the kids with passion and dedication? Where were the professors that wanted the next generation to change this f***ed up planet? Why was I rarely meeting kids that weren&#180;t obsessed with being hip and successful? I felt as though I was reliving scenes from &lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot; id=&quot;lw_1199560470_2&quot; style=&quot;cursor: hand; border-bottom: #0066cc 1px dashed&quot;&gt;Night of the Living Dead&lt;/span&gt;, and everyone was showing up to class in a daze, and constantly fixing their ravenous hungers for parties, clothes, and social networking. I thought, I must get out of this NYU malarchy and find some freethinkers. So I applied for a few internships.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;I went to work part time for an indie rock marketing company. Bad move. If the NYU kids were robots, than these people were surely their mechanics. It only took a few moments on the first day to understand that that industry is full of ingenuine, sheepish money men. They were directly communicating with and grooming my consumer classmates. So I quit, and got another internship at Vice&#180;s VBS TV. Here I was working for the youthful, daring leaders of independent TV (or so I thought). They were sending reporters to &lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot; id=&quot;lw_1199560470_3&quot; style=&quot;cursor: hand; border-bottom: #0066cc 1px dashed&quot;&gt;Baghdad&lt;/span&gt; and &lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot; id=&quot;lw_1199560470_4&quot; style=&quot;cursor: hand; border-bottom: #0066cc 1px dashed&quot;&gt;Cuba&lt;/span&gt;! I was so excited. But when I got to work, I found out the network was funded by &lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot; id=&quot;lw_1199560470_5&quot; style=&quot;cursor: hand; border-bottom: #0066cc 1px dashed&quot;&gt;MTV&lt;/span&gt; and that the indie journalism was quickly being wittled away in place for &quot;indie rock&quot; and street fashion.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Everyone was so distracted with consumer culture and making money. When were we going to stop being cool and start radically addressing problems that the world was experiencing like a fatal cancer? I decided I had to f*** off from &lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot; id=&quot;lw_1199560470_6&quot; style=&quot;cursor: hand; border-bottom: #0066cc 1px dashed&quot;&gt;NYU&lt;/span&gt; and &lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot; id=&quot;lw_1199560470_7&quot; style=&quot;cursor: hand; border-bottom: #0066cc 1px dashed&quot;&gt;New York&lt;/span&gt;. I was getting hopeless and bored, and not to mention digging myself into a financial mess of college government granted loans. I needed a real education. I planned to start a new chapter in the fall volunteering at an orphanage in Gautamala for indegenous children. But that all changed in April 2007, when I decided to see what other young people were up to at a music festival in &lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot; id=&quot;lw_1199560470_8&quot; style=&quot;cursor: hand; border-bottom: #0066cc 1px dashed&quot;&gt;California&lt;/span&gt;. It was here that I met my wonderful partner Daley and decided to explore the Western&amp;#160;states,&amp;#160;boycotting exams back in &lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot; id=&quot;lw_1199560470_9&quot; style=&quot;cursor: hand; border-bottom: #0066cc 1px dashed&quot;&gt;New York&lt;/span&gt;.&amp;#160;Then, I went to live in England with him after consciously flunking out of America&#180;s number 1 dream school.&amp;#160; And now,&amp;#160;Daley has&amp;#160;sold his house inherited from his late father, and we are living in a camper van, determined to shine a glaring, unignorable spotlight on the contradications and injustices, and enslavment of First World civilization.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;I am not sure my choices have been viewed as wise or practical, but that is because all of my classmates and friends have been fed and digested a preprogrammed, nonquestioning sense of &quot;practicality.&quot; In their worlds, it is Practical to pay $100,000 plus worth of loaned money back to the government for four years of luxury dorms and dismal classroom experiences. It is also Practical to eat loads of genetically modified food and force fed, mass tortured chicken and cows. These youths dump their parents&#180;and their own incomes into the latest, coolest trends, and enjoy spending their money on weekend trips to their friends&#180;study abroad sites in &lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot; id=&quot;lw_1199560470_10&quot; style=&quot;cursor: hand; border-bottom: #0066cc 1px dashed&quot;&gt;Europe&lt;/span&gt;. They travel abroad to youth hostels full with other travelling students. When this sheltered&amp;#160;demographic is&amp;#160;feeling particulary intellectual or guilty, they might debate ancient philosophy or ethics. But that is as far as it goes. The rallying for justice, the urgency for revolution, is all but wasted on leather boots and &lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot; id=&quot;lw_1199560470_11&quot; style=&quot;cursor: hand; border-bottom: #0066cc 1px dashed&quot;&gt;cell phones&lt;/span&gt;. These people are going to reak the same havoc of their generations past because they are being groomed into their generations past. Their hobbies, their schedules, and rituals are all saturated in the crimes of the first world. Their Gap Tshirts were made by Indonesian factory workers- indentured servants to the white population&#180;s shopping addiction. They all want the special degree for the special job for the security of continued luxury and entertainment. Their apples, their aspirations, and their parties are all part of the general scheme for mind control, that is orchestrated by the people at the top of the pyramid, the people we refer to as the Illuminati. They are a dead people, an uninformed species being controlled by the leaders of society, to continue the blood bath, the stifling of evolution, and to push away the hope of an equal and advanced future.&lt;/div&gt;</description>

			<title>History Of Anti-depressant and how to band the drugs.</title>
			<description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;ORIGIN OF MODERN PSYCHOPHARMACOLOGY&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The roots of psychopharmacology as a scientific discipline&lt;br /&gt;
can be traced to the late 19th century when drug&lt;br /&gt;
treatments such as lithium were used for inmates of insane&lt;br /&gt;
asylums, though the mechanisms of both the illnesses and&lt;br /&gt;
the drugs being used to treat them remained poorly understood.&lt;br /&gt;
In the early 20th century, experimental testing of&lt;br /&gt;
the scientific basis of psychoactive effects of drugs with&lt;br /&gt;
opioid alkaloids led to coining of the term psychopharmacology.&lt;br /&gt;
1 This period also witnessed many attempts to treat&lt;br /&gt;
depressed patients by using psychoactive substances. As&lt;br /&gt;
only marginal success was seen with stimulants and&lt;br /&gt;
chemical shock treatments, electroconvulsive therapy remained&lt;br /&gt;
the treatment of choice for depressed patients&lt;br /&gt;
throughout the first half of the 20th century. It was not until&lt;br /&gt;
the 1950s that major breakthroughs in psychopharmacology&lt;br /&gt;
occurred (Figure 1).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The molecular manipulation of antihistamines led to the&lt;br /&gt;
first important breakthrough: synthesis of phenothiazines&lt;br /&gt;
by Charpentier at Rhone-Poulenc and the development of&lt;br /&gt;
chlorpromazine as an antipsychotic agent.2 Chlorpromazine&lt;br /&gt;
was found to exert potent tranquilizing effects and relieve&lt;br /&gt;
symptoms such as aggression and hallucinations. Researchers&lt;br /&gt;
in molecular chemistry took great interest in the&lt;br /&gt;
development of chlorpromazine and began to systematically&lt;br /&gt;
alter the structure of antihistamines and other psychoactive&lt;br /&gt;
agents in the search for potential therapies. Despite&lt;br /&gt;
these systematic efforts, serendipity played a large role in&lt;br /&gt;
the discovery of the first modern antidepressant agents.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Recent article about the shoting in Omaha, Nebraska&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Infowars.net | December 7 , 2007 &lt;br /&gt;
Steve Watson &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Robert Hawkins, the 19 year old who killed himself and eight other people with an assault rifle last night in Omaha, Nebraska had a history of treatment with psychiatric drugs for depression and ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) and was on prozac according to press reports . &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Of course the headlines will once again focus on how evil and dangerous guns are, how the second amendment should be reevaluated and will once again ignore the fact that this young man was subject to dangerous brain altering chemicals for a number of years prior to this tragic incident. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hawkins is the latest in a long line of shooters all of which were on prescribed antidepressants before they suddenly snapped and decided to kill as many people as they could before taking their own lives. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Investigators believe that Cho Seung Hui, the Virginia Tech murderer, had been taking anti-depressant medication at some point before the shootings last April, according to The Chicago Tribune . &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Columbine shooters Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, as well as 15-year-old Kip Kinkel, the Oregon killer who gunned down his parents and classmates, were all on psychotropic drugs. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Jeff Weise, the Red Lake High School killer was on prozac , &amp;quot;Unabomber&amp;quot; Ted Kaczinski, Michael McDermott, John Hinckley, Jr., Byran Uyesugi, Mark David Chapman and Charles Carl Roberts IV, the Amish school killer, were all on SSRI psychotropic drugs. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Antidepressant drugs have never been tested on children nor approved by the FDA for use on children, however, Scientific studies proving that prozac encourages suicidal tendencies in young people are voluminous and span back nearly a decade. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 2005, it was revealed that Eli Lilly had full knowledge of a 1200% increase in suicide risk for takers of their Prozac. This evidence came in the wake of findings published in the British Medical Journal a year previously. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 2006 a report was published outlining the fact that anti-depressant drug Paxil doubles the risk of violent behavior . Another study published in the Archives of General Psychiatry revealed that teens taking antidepressant drugs are more likely to commit suicide. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, prescriptions of antidepressants and other mind-altering drugs among schoolchildren has more than quadrupled in that time, while use of behaviour-altering drugs, including Ritalin, for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and Modafinil, for daytime sleepiness, has soared ten-fold. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is a well known fact among the makers of these drugs that they are directly linked to behavioural disturbances including agitation, panic attacks and extreme aggression, yet their use is so commonplace that they have now even found their way into our drinking water . &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since these deadly drugs are prevalent in almost all mass shooting incidents, where is the call to ban prozac? Where is the investigation into these drugs and the big pharma corporations that are pushing them and gaining record profits? Why is the knee-jerk reaction always to attack the 2nd Amendment rights of Americans to self-defense, a right that was exercised in January 2002 when students subdued a shooter at another Virginia university before he could kill more than three people because they were allowed guns on campus?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

			<title>Humanity Under Attack: The Tactics Of Social Engineering    </title>
			<description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#000000&quot; size=&quot;2&quot;&gt;Humanity Under Attack: The Tactics of Social Engineering&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#000000&quot; size=&quot;2&quot;&gt;Old-thinker news | Feb. 27, 2007&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#000000&quot; size=&quot;2&quot;&gt;By Daniel Taylor&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#000000&quot; size=&quot;4&quot;&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot; size=&quot;2&quot;&gt;The history of humanity has been one long stream of free human beings fighting against despotic tyrants; the tribe, and the families within it defending themselves against oppression. Today, the western world is falling into the depths of tyranny mirroring Orwell's &lt;em&gt;1984&lt;/em&gt;, and a predatory system is being erected. In the event that you, your friends, family, and the rest of the general population are successfully convinced that selfish needs outweigh those of others, are robbed of individuality, pa**ion, empathy and principle, the fabric of society disintegrates. In this social climate, the perfect environment is created for predators from within our own species to misdirect and finally enslave the distracted, decadent population. Corrupt politicians are venerated, celebrity worshipped, and security outweighs the desire for liberty. Mindless worship of power, support of dictators and their atrocities, general degradation of society, loss of liberty; it all stems from you not respecting yourself, not retaining your sense of individuality, and in turn the fire that beats in your breast for &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;FREEDOM&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/font&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
