Shooting a dead horse

I don't want to keep harping on this but the shootings just keep on happening. It seems like every day someone else gets shot. Now on the news they are talking about a woman who believed that "God turned her into the Anti-Christ". This led her to shoot her son, then herself, but not before calling home and telling her husband what she had done to their child. CNN even went so far as to show the video footage from the shooting range of then, her son in the front firing off some rounds, while the mother raises her gun to the back of his head. Of course, that's where they cut off the video, but I mean, come on! Are the so desperate for ratings that they would sensationalize the last few seconds of this young man's life? Based on what little I've seen so far, it sounds like we have yet another case of a person on anti-psychotic drugs who most likely was recently taken off of them recently, causing a psychotic break, it's been the case in nine out of ten of these shootings.

It seems to me, that before we start talking about better gun control, we should start discussing better pharmaceutical control. The problem that we're having right now, with people going ape shit and killing everyone around them, isn't going to be quelled by better gun control. The people perpetrating these atrocities are nothing but spoiled brats who decide one day that they've had enough, pitch a fit, and start hurting anyone around them. It's true, that when you have yourself a temper tantrum, if you happen to have a gun at your disposal, you're going to do a lot more damage than if you didn't. Now consider, what if none of these people had anti-psychotic drugs at their disposal? What if they only had something like, oh, I don't know, marijuana, could the temper tantrum (the psychotic break) been avoided altogether? I say, probably so.

Binghamton Shooter

The news is on right now that a shooter entered an American Civic center building in Binghamton, NY and started shooting people. So far CNN is reporting that 4 people are dead and 12 people have been injured. Jason Bermas on Infowars spoke with a police officer friend of his and is reporting that up to 40 people are being held hostage. Time will tell what the final count is, but even one is too many. This is all ongoing, and very few details have been released, but if the last few weeks are any indication of what's to come, it sounds very likely that this is a repeat of what has happened before. As with Alabama and Germany, we will likely find out that the shooter was on anti-psychotic drugs, that he was recently taken off of them, and that he had a psychotic break as a result of being taken off of these drugs. The military will once again be sent in to "maintain the peace" as they did in Alabama, a clear violation of the Posse Comitatus Act. Finally, they will use this tragedy as an excuse to rally for tighter and more restrictive gun regulations. Another engineered tragedy following the formula of Action- Reaction- Solution.

More to come as more details are released. My prayers go out to the families of the victims.

'Tis the season for Shooting Sprees?

I'm not sure what's going on these last few weeks, maybe it's global depression, who knows, but it looks like there are a lot of people out there doing a lot of shooting. These articles are all in the last week.


Cleveland, Ohio

Birmingham, Alabama

Berlin, Germany

Shreveport, Louisiana

Richmond, California

Troy, Illinois

Northern Ireland

And these are just a few of the many in the last week. Can anyone explain this to me?

** Updated 3/12 **

I heard a theory on the radio yesterday, that these are all mind controlled MK Ultra Assassins. That fish is a week old, and I'm not buying it. I do believe, however, that our government will use this as an excuse to take stronger measures toward tighter gun control. I just saw this morning that after the Alabama shootings, the US Army put soldiers on the streets. You can check that out HERE. I do find it interesting also that this fact has been conveniently overlooked by the mainstream media, but reported internationally. A clear violation of the Posse Comitatus Act.

Emergency Broadcast! New World Order Ahead!

Home Improvement

This week has been home improvement week for me. Sunday I spent all day working on my pond, installing lighting to surround that area, and put in a submersible green light to add a little ambiance. I also put our Lotus back in, which has been sitting in our garage in a plastic trash bag since it started getting cold in November. I'm really hoping that it blooms this year, we really didn't see anything out of it last year, which was disappointing for a $40 plant.

Last night I worked on our master bathroom. When we bought our house 2 years ago, the first thing we did was replace this god awful pink carpet that ran through the entire house, including the master bath. Our plan was to tile that bathroom at some point, so in the mean time, we cut an extra piece of the new carpet and put it in there. Two years later, we finally have the means to put the tile in. Thank you tax return! So I spent a couple of hours breaking apart a small area of old tile in front of the shower, and pulled the toilet. I love pulling toilets. The nasty old wax ring is my favorite part. There's always something that will go wrong when you start playing around with 20 year old plumbing, too. Of course the water line broke, so after the tile is finished, I get to shut off the water to the house, replace the water line, the wax ring, paint, and re-attach the toilet to the ground. I'd say that this will help our home value, but that's not looking real promising, no matter what we do to it.

Once I died

I don't know why, but the last few days I have been thinking about writing this blog. I tell myself that it's not something that I need to write, but then I come right back to thinking about writing it again. Maybe something is supposed to come out of this, who knows, so here goes.

I died when I was 3. I had no memory of this happening for most of my life, at least no memories that I could explain, but then a few years ago my mother told me that it happened. My mother had left me with my aunt to watch while she was out running errands. Apparently, I was outside for a few minutes, just long enough to fall into the pool and drown. I don't know how long it was, I guess no one really does, but it couldn't have been more than just a few minutes. My aunt was visiting with a friend of hers inside the house, when they realize that I was out of their line of site. They came outside and saw me floating there face down in the pool, and I would imagine that they pulled me out as quickly as possible. I guess it was my lucky day, because the friend of my aunt's was a nurse and she was able to resuscitate me in time before there was any brain damage. (As far as I can tell, anyway.)

When I say that I had no memories of this event, I mean that I had none until I heard this story. Once I did, it was as if my imagination combined with potential memories, and it was as if I could see all of this happening to me. I can see the two ladies panicked, running outside, pulling me out of the water I can see this other woman resuscitating me, all from about 10 feet in the air, then nothing. It's as if the only memories I can recall from that day are during the time I had my face in the water. Who knows, it could be just my imagination.

So, for obvious reasons, all of this makes me think of spirituality. I've always thought that I had more unanswered questions than I've had answers in this department. Growing up in a Catholic household, going to catechism classes every week for 10 years, I always felt like everyone around me was so sure in their beliefs. Growing up, I often felt somewhat inadequate spiritually because I had so much doubt in what I was being taught to believe. Catholic school teachers don't like being questioned, and though I didn't have a nun to slap me with a ruler, Catholic guilt can be just as effective as a form of punishment.

When I left home for college I started an age of real spiritual exploration. I started dating girls that were of different religion; Jewish, Baptist, Mormon, Church of Christ, and others. I learned what I could about them, and I would attend services. One of the most bizarre experiences was being in a service for one protestant religion or another, and hearing them talking shit about the Catholics. I'm not just talking about hanging out after service and hearing people talking shit. I'm talking about a deacon or minister, on the pulpit, preaching to his congregation about how bad the Catholics were. So much for loving your brother.

I then started reading what I could about "alternative" religions. I researched Wiccan and Liman witchcraft. I studied Alistair Crowley and I read up on the Kabbalah. I studied the Druids, astrology, the Greek and Romans Gods, and more recently, I've read up on Zachariah Sitchin and the ancient Sumerian texts. Running out of global religions to study, I learned also that there is a galactic, or universal outlook on spirituality, and that there are many people who claim to channel the spirits of our ancestors, or even alien beings from high above the earth who purport to be the very angels and prophets that are written about in so many of our Holy Books.

One of these channeled beings is Ra, that's right, the old Egyptian god, Ra. In his channelings, he speaks of the Law of One. A universal law that we are all one, that what I do to you, I do to myself, and that we are all connected on the quantum level. If you've heard of the book made movie, "The Secret" and the Law of Attraction, then you've heard of the Law of One. Most metaphysical theories now, much of what we are discovering about the nature of quantum physics, sound, and sacred geometry can find it's roots in the Law of One.

In everything I've learned, by keeping my soul and mind open to any possibility, I have learned that no matter what you believe, no matter what religion you subscribe to, if you tear away the dogma and the fear behind any belief system, there is one universal truth. Love one another. Jesus, Buda, Mohammed, a trinity of witches, or even space aliens, they all send the same message. Love one another. Be the example that I have set.

I believe now that I have a very good grasp of the true meaning of spirituality. It's tied into the reason that we are here, why we have chosen to take on this life in this body. It's all just One thing: To be given the opportunity to experience and deliver love. Just imagine the world we could be living in free of religious conflict, free from greed and the self serving results of fear. If this country is indeed on the brink of economic collapse, if the world is undergoing a change leading up to 2012, I hope that we can all put aside everything else, and just do one thing: love!
