THE NON-VOTING AMERICAN

THE NON-VOTING AMERICAN

      America’s sleeping giant is the millions of non-voting American citizens.  It is now believed that the sleeping giant has been awakened, and if so it will make a big difference in the election of November 2018.  This op-ed. is dedicated to those American citizens who did not vote in the 2016 election.  Your non-participation in the election process has allowed an evil regime to gain control of American government. 

     The members of the Republicans Party are some of the most egocentric people on the planet.  Their egocentricities have extended into the financial sector, the religious sector, as well as the political sector, of American society. They are only concerned about themselves, and will lie, cheat, and steal, for the sake of money.

     The Republicans have developed a mean-spirit towards everyone except the wealthy.  They have reduced health benefits for 28 million Americans, and are attempting to reinstate pre-existing conditions, which will only benefit insurance companies.  They have taken large sums of money from pharmaceutical companies giving them the right to charge unbelievable prices on prescription drugs, and have refused to pass laws requiring background checks before purchasing a gun.  They have reduced spending for Medicare and Social Security, and have declared never to increase the minimum wage for working Americans. They have reduced spending for programs that provide food for hungry children while giving millions in tax breaks to the upper 1% billionaires. It is unbelievable and egregious that they have been able to brainwash many working class Americans to support these policies.

     The Democratic Party is not perfect, but it is far better than the GOP. Democrats have concerns for all people regardless of race, sexual orientation, or financial status.  It is an evident fact that America is a diverse society, and the only path forward for America is the acceptance of diversity. It is also an evident fact that America was moving in a forward direction until Republicans, with Donald Trump as their leader, gained control of the government.

     We are living in an era where authoritarian governments are on the rise around the world. Therefore, it is very important for those who believe in democracy to stand firm and speak loud. It is a fact that the GOP is in favor of a one man, one party government.  At the present, the voices of the Republicans are much louder than the voices of the Democrats.  It is a shame that only a handful of elected Democrats are speaking out about the evil regime of Donald Trump.  The Democrats should be screaming to high heaven about the improprieties of the President, his cabinet, and his entire family.  This man has already gotten away with more un-American acts than any President in the history of United States.

      

     When Donald Trump took office the American economy was near full employment. The only thing he had going for him was a little money and a slogan that was pleasing to the ears of the less informed. He immediately began to deport workers without any knowledge of who would fill the vacancies.  The farming sector is just one example. At the present, crops lay rotten in the fields because they are no available workers. In a matter of six months or less, the price of groceries will increase at a much greater rate than the salaries of working Americans. Once again, while many Americans are screaming and hollering at rallies for Donald Trump, they have no knowledge of the fact that they are losing purchasing power.

     Donald Trump has not improved the life of anyone except for himself and his family. There has never been an American who had less regards for the truth than Donald Trump. There have only been a few examples in history where a leader could lie as much as Donald Trump and still retain followers. However, it is noted by experts that 96% of Donald Trump’s followers are uneducated. This sets a terrible example for America as the world looks on. 

     Every minute, every day, with every act the Republicans perform, America moves closer to an authoritarian government.  Millions know it but are unwilling to do anything about it. These millions must be reminded that the sins of omission are as great, or sometimes greater, than the sins of commission.  If there was ever a time in American history when the silent majority needs to speak loud and clear it is now.  America’s democratic government is being tested more than anytime since the dark days of the American Revolution, and the days prior to, and during the Civil War.

HOW LOW WILL THEY GO?

HOW LOW WILL THEY GO?

     All hell breaks loose when any nation starts a war with children. The most unbelievable act in all American history is for church leaders, governmental officials, and conservative TV and radio broadcasters, to use derogatory name-calling for children who have only asked for a safe school environment.  The dumbest leaders in the worse nations on the planet have not been stupid enough to declare war on children.
Is there no shame?  ---- Now low will they go?

     It has been reported that donations to the NRA have increased since the Florida shootings.  It has also been reported that the accused mass murderer has received hundreds of fan mail letters including donations, proposals, congratulations, and sexual explicit photos. If this doesn’t prove that America is a sick society then it cannot be proven.  If this does not awaken every moral fiber in every American, then as a human, you are stone-cold dead.

     The Republican Party will pay an unforgivable price for these actions.  Of all the foolish acts that have been done in recent months by members of the Republican Party, this one tops the list.  Decent American mothers and fathers are not going to stand for this! The world knows that the USA government, in order to protect the NRA, has done absolutely nothing to protect school children, and as a result, a record number of children have been murdered at school.  Now students are saying “enough is enough,” and they are being victimized with unbelievable name-calling, slur words, and straight out lies. This is one of the most disgraceful acts ever to take place on American soil, along with Native American genocide and slavery.  

     It is difficult to name all the horrors that have developed in America in recent months.  But the horror of all horrors is when the leaders of a nation start victimizing innocent children with offensive names and start praising the names of mass murders.   If this is not the bottom of the barrel, I do not know where the bottom is.

     Many of these children had to hide in closets while a mass murderer fired round after round of bullets that killed seventeen of their classmates. Others had to hide under the bodies of dead classmates with their clothes were being soaked with the blood of their friends, and some leaders have the unmitigated audacity to call these children “liars” and “cowards.” The person who picks a fight with children will soon discover that they have picked the wrong fight.

     Republicans who have had much to say about the 2nd amendment, made an about-face when children used the 1^st Amendment to petition the government for their own safety. American government has spent multi-trillions on wars, after wars, after wars. Yet American children were forced to petition their government to provide a safe school environment.  When NRA dollars become more important than the lives of children, the line has been drawn in the sand---but still this does not answer the question--------- HOW LOW WILL THEY GO?

SMALL STEPS MAKE BIG DECISIONS

SMALL STEPS MAKE BIG DECISIONS

     Throughout the centuries historians have described many special events that occurred on the planet earth.  But none was more important than Saturday, March 24, 2018, when millions of students from around the world marched in defiance of elected officials who have refused to pass sensible gun law restrictions. 

     It is a sad state of affairs and a serious situation when students are forced to petition the government for their OWN SAFETY.  On that special day millions gathered at the nation’s capital in an event entitled, “MARCH FOR OUR LIVES” to petition the government to say “enough is enough.” Kindergarten students, elementary students, middle school, junior high, high school, and college students, all participated in a peaceful march to emphasis the need for sensible gun law restrictions.

     It was not just children who marched but it was mothers, fathers, grandmothers, grandfathers, aunts, uncles, cousins, and distant relatives, all who believe that children deserve the right to learn in a safe environment.  Millions donated money, hundreds donated private jets, buses, vans, and cars, to make sure that the children arrived safely at the nation’s capital.  This is the America that the world learned to love and respect.

     A few days prior to this event students had planned a silent, peaceful, walkout, to pay tribute to the seventeen students who were murdered in Florida’s Parkland school shooting. Many teachers locked the doors, students were beaten, and some were suspended, but still thousands took to the knees and raised their fists, in defiance of a government that is controlled by the NRA.

     As the world came to support America’s children it is now firmly believed that they will be able to accomplish what adults have been unable to do, and that is to take down the powerful NRA. In a very short time these millions will be voters and they have publicly committed to clean up America’s political mess. They have said that those who have taken “blood money” from the NRA will be voted out.

     Any leader worth his salt would have gladly addressed the students, congratulated them for courage, and promised to do everything within his power to guarantee safe American classrooms. But instead the bone spur cadet, yellow-bellied coward, was spotted sneaking out the back door of the White House on his way to play golf to avoid facing the millions who had gathered at the nation’s capital for a worthwhile purpose.

     It is now evident that the USA is absent of honest leadership. What voters did in the election of 2016 will go down in history as one of the biggest mistakes of all times?  Each day more dirt, filth, lies, and dishonesty, is uncovered concerning the monster who occupies the White House. And if Christians, who support him, believe their own doctrine, they must believe that one day they will stand before the judgment seat of Almighty God and be held accountable for their deeds on earth.  Their Holy Book describes it as a day when thousands will cry for the rocks and mountains to fall upon them to hide them from the face of God.

Good luck my fellow kinsmen!

  

THE SINS OF...?

THE SINS OF …?  

     It is a scary experience to think that some Americans are willing to place America’s democracy in the hands of a group of evil men and women who call themselves a political party.  To think that Americans would carelessly throw away the sacrifice of millions of men and women who have given their lives for the protection of America’s democracy is   an outright disgrace. However, it is a greater disgrace that some Americans helped a foreign nation intervene in America’s political process.   

    The foundation of America’s democracy is being eroded by one political party and a religious organization. The fact that American church members proudly support a bald-faced, forked-tongued liar as the president of the USA has rocked the very foundation of American democracy. This man has already done more to destroy America’s democratic form of government than any other American in history, and so far he has gotten away with it.  When American citizens allow tax dollars to pay professional liars to lie for the president it is a perfect example of the corrosion of what once was a stable government.

    There has never been a time in the history of Christianity that the church has betrayed the teachings of Jesus as much as the present day American Christian Church.  There is no doubt that Jesus has taken a knee, raised his fist, and turned his back, in defiance of the actions of a religious organization that carries his name. From the voice that supports sin in the pulpit, to the actions of church members on the streets, sin dominates American lifestyle.

    It is a disgusting experience to have to admit that many Americans have lost the real meaning of human dignity.  It is a disgrace to ladies all over the world that some American women support domestic violence. It is a further disgrace to young American daughters to see their mothers support “wife beaters.” It is a disgrace beyond words that elected officials take “blood money” from the NRA and refuse to pass sensible gun law restrictions. 

     American democracy has allowed citizens to attain goals far beyond any human imagination. It is the American democratic form of government whereby the vast majority of the richest people in the world made their wealth.  Now those millionaires and billionaires want to change American government to an oligarchy. Once oligarchs gain control of the government, the power will never be returned to the people. This is a disgrace to all working class Americans, and a disgrace to all individuals who have given their lives to protect a democratic form of government. It is a further disgrace to all the men and women who are serving in a military capacity to protect the democratic process of American government. 

     Present day America has the largest number of selfish, greedy, money hungry, elected officials as any nation on the planet. The biggest number of liars ever assembled in any governmental capacity now exists in the United States of America.  And after hundreds of proven lies, still some Americans stick their heads in the sand and continue to support fake governmental officials.

     At the present, social America is similar to an egg and that egg is about to crack.  America’s political system is a powder keg that is ready to explode. It is no longer a matter of if, but a matter of when. However, American voters have the constitutional right to restore sensible government, but this can only be done by a majority of the people participating in the voting process.  Exactly when the majority will say “enough is enough” is hard to predict, but it seems as if the time is close at hand.

 

     The best thing that has happened to the USA is America’s youth have taken on the role of leadership. It is now hoped that young Americans will be able do what adults Americans have been unable to do.  It is a part of the good, the bad and the ugly, that America’s school children have been forced to petition the government for the purpose of their OWN SAFETY.

   When the final chapter of American history is written, it is hoped that historians will NOT write that America was defeated by ignorance.

POWER --- WHITE AS EVER

POWER, POWER, WHITE AS EVER

     From the beginning of American democracy progress has been slow, but world-wide progress has developed into a fast changing world.  In America’s political system a narrow-minded, regressive, mind-set still dominates.   It took years for women to gain the right to vote. It took a war for African Americans to be granted citizenship. It took decades for a Catholic to be elected president, and it took even longer for a man of color to occupy the White House.

     White men showed the real true color of white power when a respectable lady came close to being elected the first woman president of the USA. They conjured up, not just one, but a pack of lies to prevent this from happening.  What they got in return is a dysfunctional, crime ridden, group of elected officials.  When history is altered by lies, history retaliates.

     Historians have no choice but to write the truth, and already historians around the world are writing that the year 2017 started one of the darkest chapters in American history.  America is more divided now than any time since the Civil War and the division is getting wider.  Examples of hate are displayed on American soil in greater numbers than any time since the Civil War, and prejudice has once again become an acceptable social trait.  Even stable citizens are in a state of confusion, and chaos is rampant across the land. 

     White women are belittling themselves by becoming a part of the restoration of white man’s supremacy. Working class Americans are sacrificing not only themselves, but their families, in order to take part in the white supremacy movement. More than anything else, the evangelical church has completely destroyed Biblical Christianity in an attempt to support and restore White Power to America.  It is difficult to believe that any American is happy with present day America.  

     All across America savage acts of inhumanity are being carried out against innocent victims.  Working class, tax-paying, child supporting Fathers, are being torn away from their families just to satisfy the need to restore White Power.  Authorities are using deadly force against citizens at a much greater rate than any other civilized nation of the world.  Training grounds have been created to train mentally disturbed individuals to carry out acts of mass shootings against innocent school children, and government officials do nothing.    

   

     In the process of restoring White Power to America the devil has taken full control.  He is a slick character who is a master of disguise and a specialist in deceit.  He knows how to turn real facts into “alternative facts” and make people believe them.  He knows that the best way to get people to believe lies is to have them presented by women. He knows that a confused population can easily be made to believe “real news” is “fake news.”

     At the present, the devil has the easiest job of anyone in America. All he has to do is sit back and let politicians and church leaders do his work for him.  The devil has never been happier when he can get inside the church and turn Christianity into a fake religion.  He is pleasantly surprised when the selfishness of a few allows thousands to suffer. The devil is pleased when citizens turn on each other and hate dominates the social environment.  He loves to see the Confederate flag being flown in American streets, and the “hail Hitler” sign used by American citizens.

     It is true that the devil has full control of America, from the so-called Christian church to the political party that controls both houses of Congress and the executive branch. Already signs are being displayed across America and around the world, warning Americans that “the handwriting is on the wall.”  But history reveals that when a powerful nation goes into a decline and citizens become so confused they cannot distinguish virtue from evil, little can be done to change the tide.  

TROUBLE, TROUBLES DOUBLE TROUBLES

   TROUBLE, TROUBLES DOUBLE TROUBLES 

   Evil comes a-knocking on every body’s door.  Some knowingly open it but others are tricked into it.  It is when an individual engages in evil and enjoys it, to the point that a repeat engagement occurs, that real troubles begin.  Evil breed’s trouble and troubles double troubles.

------ THE QUESTION IS -----

*****Why does it rain on the just and the unjust, and why do evil men prosper? *****

    People can say what they please about God’s creation of man, but there is a definite flaw in the creation experience.  In creating man and giving him the ability to choose, God expected humans would choose good over evil.  But even God was surprised when his creation began to engage in malicious acts of immorality.

    The unchecked nature of mankind is evil, and of all the creatures on the planet humans are the most evil.  Humans will lock humans in cages and smile while they starve to death. Humans will throw babies into fires and laugh while they burn. Humans will hang humans for the color of their skin, and humans will murder humans for no other reason than sexual orientation. Humans will deliberately murder humans and rejoice as they die. The evolution of mankind has developed into obnoxious, evil creatures.  

     Humans seek dominion over other humans and there is no greater proof than in the political arena.  All over the world political leaders are involved in corruption, and there is no greater proof than in the USA. Today in America political leaders stand flat-footed and lie, and Americans knowingly accept it.

   It appears that the evolution of human intelligence is moving in a backwards direction, because it is now easier than ever for political and religious leaders to brainwash humans. Humans appear to be lost sheep looking for a shepherd; and many times the shepherd is wrapped with evil intentions.  And there is no greater example than in the USA today. 

(OPERATION PARK BENCH) 

    Then she slides closer on the bench and puts her arms around his shoulders.

     “What a world, what a mess this United States is in?” he speaks.

     “Oh, but don’t worry, Doc, God has it all under control.”

     “You may think so, Liz, but I don’t.”

     “Are you saying you don’t believe in God?”

     “I believe in God alright, but there are times when God gets fed up with the stupidity of humans.”

    “But God is a just God, and he always stands against evil.”

    “That may be true, but nowhere in history can we find where God intervened in the affairs of an evil dictator.”

     “But this is different, Doc, this is America, and America is God’s country.”

    “Yea, but don’t fool yourself, God gave man a brain, and he expects him to use it.”

    “Do you really believe that God has washed his hands of America?”

    “Yes, I believe there comes a time when God says if humans are so stupid as to allow themselves to be controlled by an evil dictator he will let them suffer the consequences of their ignorance.”

   “Do you really believe that America is headed for a dictator?”

   “I’m not sure about that, but I am sure that America’s democracy is being tested more so now than any time since the Civil War.”   

   “Yes Sir Doc, and that’s one thing we both can agree on.” 

(THE END) 

AMERICA: INSIDE AND OUT

AMERICA: INSIDE AND OUT

        For several decades outside America did not realize what was actually going on inside America. America is riddled with hatreds and prejudices and that is a shame. But it is a greater shame that these hatreds and prejudices are fueled by the American Christian church, and that a so-called religious organization has chosen to support an evil governmental regime. The donald trump administration has exposed inside America to the world and the picture is not pretty.

    Worldwide Christianity is suffering from decreased memberships but nowhere is greater than inside America. Thousands have rebelled against America’s organized religion and the numbers increase daily.  In the last decade the Southern Baptist Church has lost over 78,000 members.  Thousands believe that SBC has made a mockery out of the life of Jesus Christ.  But still some brainwashed church-goers inside America, sit silently by while millionaire evangelical preachers preach “prosperity Christianity” which is about as far away from real Christianity as is possible.

     History proves that a confused population leads to a dictatorial government. At the present, there is a group of confused citizens inside America who are bordering on the verge of insanity. This group has failed to realize that a wannabe dictator is occupying the White House, and this wannabe dictator is a fool.  Worse than being a fool is a fool with money, and this fool is sitting in the middle of a capitalistic society where money is god and money buys people.

     Inside America money has created one of the worse addictions on the planet.   The love of money is the root of all evil, and it develops an incurable addiction where “enough is never enough.”  Money will cause children to murder parents, brothers to murder brothers, and sisters to murder sisters.

      Money turns the hearts of good people into stone, and a heart of stone has no compassion for others.   Anytime a child dies from starvation we become less of a human and more of a creature. Nevertheless, in a land of plenty children die every day from hunger. 

     Inside America the church has developed policies that favor the rich, plus the US government has passed laws that benefit the rich.  Today, the quickest road to riches is inside America’s political system, and the system is riddled with corruption.  This has developed into a social tsunami.  It is hoped that the tsunami will only develop into a gigantic turn-out at the polls, but some are predicting actions much more severe.

       Outside America the world is stunned by a nation that was once the leader of the free world but now is attempting to build a wall of isolation.  It is possible that inside America another Civil War is looming.  The United States is more divided now than any time since the Civil War, and there is no compromise in the foreseeable future.
