Overpolicing America

Can there be such a thing as over policing? Aren't police all about good things for us all? And isn't there simply a lack of money to get enough good policing?

The reality is that police are the tool of a governing body.

It is a month and a half now since our new President was inaugurated, and his democratic house and senate control has been made complete. Never before in a "democracy" has such an overreaching, overspending, leadership ran over a people that elected it in such a sound way, through every possible aspect of government abuse, vindictive revenge, and fiscal mismanagement such that it has completely and effectively bombed a country with chaos.

Never before have the complete people of a country stopped spending so rapidly, so radically, and so completely in reaction to such actions through fear that they have caused a complete economy to implode in such a failure of confidence except in 1929.

And in my focus on the policing power of the state, I have continued to watch the power of police now with a new consideration. The police forces of America are now the government's new militia, self supported through abusive traffic enforcement, and now ready to turn on us all as they have become the tool of an instantly militant, ruling class who have made clear that their moderate campaign of the election era has been abandoned to their real agenda instituting the communist manifesto with every violation of freedom, taxation, and control that make Marxism reprehensible to those old enough to remember what it is .

Unfortunately, we have two generations now that have grown up without the experience of observing the reality of socialist marxism. And in their ignorance, have joined with the disenfranchised left, the disenfranchised blacks, and the majority fools of Congress to build the new society here among us, on our backs.

If you don't think an armed police force won't do this governments bidding, you do not understand the way a police army works.

In the midst of state and municipal budget cutting at almost every level in our country, one of the only place our governments will not cut budgets, employees, or priorities is in the area of policing. Our new federal budget adds government cars, and government personnel, and yet cuts the budgets of every other department. Where do you think all that money is going folks?

The answer is policing. Not every aspect of government policing (read "control") involves a marked patrol car rolling down a road watching speeders, and traffic rule violations. We have new government offices to simply study the GPS patterns of cell phone users, the spending habits of bank accounts, the use of credit cards, the conversations of callers, and the way in which you interact with those around you. And yes you are paying for this with your taxes - if you are in the half of the population that pays taxes.

But you can also bet that when the whistle is blown by "Pharobama" and his control minions, every aspect of policing will lockstep against your wallet and your freedom.

So why not add self supporting traffic police at every level? A minimum drag on taxation based public funding, and a simple way to grow the control factor?

Won't you contribute today?

A Warring Piece On War And Peace

As Christmas finally lands this week in the land of peace (or war?) I am reminded of the dichotomies of this season in our history. In the traditional measure of generations at about 20 years a piece, we are three generations from America's last big one - World War II that is, two generations from the start of the Vietnam war - the American national disgrace, and now approaching a full generation since the end of the cold war. Well thank God, we're pretty much over 'war' as a national proccupation right?

Oh that's right we are still at "war". The White House reminds us this week that this is the first time in forever that the Presidency will transition while the country is at war. Now if your family is in Iraq or Afghanistan at this point - you know that they are away at war.

But ask an Obamanik, and the only problem we are trying to resolve is to end the financial commitment to Iraq. And end some kind of 'conflict' they are having over in that Afghan (?) place (like it's some kind of blanket thing on their sofa).

After all America is a land of peace. Except for a few problems in the past, America is the most peaceful country in the world. All we need to do is get GWB out of the White House and we can get back to the peace we generally consider normal.

Now, given their preoccupation with flushing Christianity from the public debate, the public property, and next the money, we can hardly blame Christianity for either war or peace, but at the time of year that celebrates the concept of 'Peace On Earth' as a basic goal of Christianity, we should ask ourselves what role Christianity plays in the concept of "peace".

Growing up Christian, I have been reminded in recent years - principally since 2001 - that Islam is NOT a religion of peace - despite GWB's new mantra that it is; that Allah and God are one and the same, and that he has apparently effectively announced that all roads now lead to heaven. (I didn't think we had turned over heaven to the American government - despite our relentless efforts to relinquish every other freedom and joy we have to them). In reality Georgie has missed it again. He doesn't know his authority level, and apparently doesn't know his enemies - or theology - either.

While I strongly agree with my teachers that Islam is not a religion of peace, the evidence is also clear that Christianity is not a religion of peace either. Both religions are about their own exclusivity as the only right way to God. And that is pretty much where the similarity ends.

Of course we confuse countries and fundamentalists on both sides of the fence. Islamic countries may or may not be peaceful (I'd say "NOT") and Christian countries may or may not be peaceful. (Much room for debate.), but fundamentalists on either side of these two religions are clearly growing definitive - and many militant about their positions. And the muslim side is growing militant faster.

So if you claim any type of Christian heritage from your country, you are soon going to be deciding if you prefer militant fundamentalist Christianity, or bowing to Mecca five times a day. Because peace is no longer remaining an option on the table.

And now with Washington's new flag waving decidedly in favor of Islam in the Jewish/Muslim support debate, this long growing international conflict is coming to land squarely in America beginning this coming year.

Of course you could never have explained this aspect of their choice to an Obama supporter in 2008 as they "rode the wave", but this is a sheep's life, and as long as 'the peace' can be maintained in the midst of pursuing greener pastures, why not enjoy the free ride?

And now the wake up calls begin as the growing beat of the steady drum now becomes faintly more audible, and the calls from Kenya, and Hawaii, and other lands of the 'obamanation' denomination begin to ring like a ding-a-ling thing. Adding of course to the chorus of Tehran, and Kabul and Damascus.

In reality, Christ was not a messenger of world peace. He was the messenger of personal peace with God - the only peace achievable in the midst of a world war - the only peace that supersedes the limits of human life.

In reality, Jesus was an instigator; a trouble maker; a rabble rouser and provoker. Anyone willing to take on the temple of his day, was taking on the equivalent of all known government and religion in one fell swoop.

Today, the equivalent would be all of Washington, Brussels, Rome and Mecca in one aggressive attack. Doesn't exactly seem peaceful to me. And imagine denouncing every known leader of people as incompetent with real authority based on the skill to 'out-speak' and 'out-perform' every voice on the stage of the day? Reducing leaders to a fools status with a stick in the sand, or a simple - but profound - question? Peaceful approach? Hardly. Master of non-violent provocation? Absolutely.

So what's with the Christian church of today?

It's decision time.

Enjoy this last 'peaceful' season because the end is near.
