Mr. Snipes Goes to Jail

The nation, indeed the world, is all a buzz over the conviction and now three year prison sentence that actor Wesley Snipes received yesterday. I have a serious problem with this verdict and sentence and so should you.


First of all, Mr. Snipes was convicted by a jury. A jury of 12 Americans most of whom I am sure do not like paying their income taxes. Most of whom, I am sure, wish there was a way for them NOT to pay their income taxes and get away with it.


Yet these same people convicted Mr. Snipes of doing what they wish they could do. Now I am not advocating breaking the law but you have to ask yourself, how legal is the whole income tax system? Does not the IRS say filing is “voluntary”? If it is voluntary then why is Mr. Snipes guilty of not filing a return for three years?


Seems to me he volunteered not to file. Or has the IRS rewritten the definition of “voluntary” so that ordinary Americans do not know what it really means. I think that is the case since Mr. Snipes was said to have “willfully not filed” under a system that says it is only voluntary to file. Which is it? Are we compelled to file or do we really have the right to file only if we volunteer to do so?


Also, this is a full onslaught on race and wealth. Yes, Mr. Snipes is a high profile case in that he is rich, he is well known, he is black. All three play a part in this.


First understand that the black middle and upper class is growing leaps and bounds. Blacks are fast becoming a group that contributes greatly to the tax base of this nation and thus can start to think for themselves. They no longer are under the thumb of the US Government as wards of the state via welfare and other social programs.


This means that blacks must learn they still have their place and cannot be allowed to challenge the US Government in any regard.


Most people who do not file a tax return for three years would get a slap on the wrist, pay hefty penalties for any past due taxes and be on their merry little way. Mr. Snipes was a target and the Prosecution even said point blank they wanted to make an example of Mr. Snipes.


Did they need to make an example of him? Haven't countless other high and mid level profile cases served to do this? One would think so, yet Mr. Snipes is arguably the first black high profile case. Look around, millions of people, black, white, red, yellow, are getting rich in this country. It is estimated that the USA will have over 10 million millionaires by the year 2010.


That is a lot of money. A lot of that money will be in the hands of minorities. Minorities that once used to be relegated to low wages and government assistance. The government is making an example of Mr. Snipes simply because they can, not because it is the right thing to do.


This has a direct impact on your liberty and freedom. With every case like this, juries are giving the government more and more power to take your money. This verdict and sentence basically states that the money YOU earn is not yours. All money belongs to the government and what you get to keep is what the government is so kind and generous to let you keep.


Why else do the Liberals play class warfare to the hilt. It is to get their hands on your money. Remember history tells us a tax on the rich is only a delayed tax on every one else. The Alternative Income Tax should be a hard lesson to us all. This tax or otherwise known as the AMT, was intended to get rich people to pay at least some income tax. Well, this tax has started to hit every day middle class Americans. As it was intended.


Don't think for a minute that it was not intended to hit you or me in the middle class. Look at the Capitol Gains tax. Yes they said it was to hit the rich when they make a killing on stocks or real estate but who did it hit the most and the hardest? The middle class especially when they retired and began cashing in on their retirement stock plans or they sold their home.


Americans began to see that the rich were now them even though they were not rich. You thought it would have been a wake up call. But the Liberals put a clever spin on such things and we still have many of the taxes that were “intended” for the rich but now hit the middle class.


Income taxes was not something the Founding Fathers of our nation thought was a proper way to fund a government. Wealth taxes, which is what income taxes are, were the bane of the old world. Part of the reason our Founding Fathers went to war was because of taxes.


You think Mr. Snipes got what he deserved? I tell you it can and will happen to you or someone you know and care about. Your freedom and liberty are held hostage by high taxes. You are a slave to the government and if you think you are not, then look at Mr. Snipes. Look at others who now find that even though they have money and power, the government has more of both.


When you vote for someone who plays the class or race card you are inviting danger and you are putting your freedom and liberty in jeopardy.


Stop. Think. Vote!

Supreme Court Trashes Constitution

The government is now free to break its own laws and you get to suffer for it. No this is not some lame conspiracy theory, this is now Supreme Court fact.


It now seems that the government can arrest you, and search you and your possessions even if that arrest was illegal. Let me tell you how bad this is and will be.


I will be very simplistic here so don't get yourself all in a twist because of what I use for an example. Read the greater moral of this tale.


Lets say you are jay-walking. Yes I said jay-walking. Many of you may not know what jay-walking is. It is when you cross the street at other than a crosswalk or corner. All major cities have jay-walking laws on the books although very few people are ever issued a ticket for doing such a thing.


This kind of law was instituted to help protect pedestrians and car drivers when the auto was first coming into its own. Jay-walking is a ticket and a fine. Nothing more than that.


Now lets say a police officer decides he is going to arrest you. Jay-walking is not an arrestable offense but the officer puts you in handcuffs. Now that arrest really is not legal in his state because it is a ticket offense not an arrest offense.


This cop now has the authority to fully search you and your belongings. If you jay-walk from your car, he can now search your car. What is worse is that any evidence that he gathers during this illegal arrest can be used against you in a court of law and any conviction that comes from it will stand.


Now you might be saying this is against the fourth Amendment to the Constitution and you would be right. In fact some of our Supreme Court Justices seemed to think this may be the case but they voted to allow such a thing to take place.


This full story came from Yahoo! News. It is very disturbing indeed. It now puts us on the path to an official police state. I am sure this is something that will get very little play in the media but every citizen should take note of this story.


You and your family are now in danger of being arrested for offenses that are not arrestable simply because now the police have free reign over you to do what they want. They can conduct and illegal arrest and still convict you on evidence that is illegally gathered.


This is a direct attack on your freedom and liberty. And yes, sad to say, the Bush Administration was fully behind in defending the state on their illegal arrest and search and conviction. What is next allowing illegally gathered evidence in a lawful arrest because the police were only after the truth?


Even though the Supreme Court has ruled on this issue, this cannot stand. It looks like we may have to enact laws that prevent the state from doing what the Constitution says it can't do in the first place. How sad. And our liberty and freedom suffers for it.

Operation Chaos code name Disruptor

Operation Chaos is in full swing. Yes, if you listen to Rush Limbaugh then you know all about Operation Chaos.


I would like to take it a little further though. Why? Because I believe Freedom and Liberty. I believe we do not have a viable candidate out there right now that cares as much about freedom and liberty as I do.


I also believe that Rush, although conservative, is wrong on some issues about freedom and liberty. In particular, Rush is wrong on the Patriot Act. He thinks that for the most part it is good. I disagree for the simple fact that it is not Pro-Constitution. Simple and plain.


However, Operation Chaos should be taken a step further because it should be a covert and overt action to raise up those who believe in the Constitution and takes down those who would subvert the Constitution.


Today, the major focus is on PA. Today the primary for the Democrats could take a sharp turn in either direction. It could be a major Clinton win or it could be a major Obama victory.


I understand that there are a lot of Republicans who have registered as Democrats so that they can vote in the primary in PA today. That is all well and good. In fact it is no different from when many Democrats in some states voted in the Republican primary in order to help secure McCain as the nominee.


What is fair play for one is fair play for the other. So should Republicans vote in a Democrat primary? If the rules and laws allow them to do so, then yes. If you use the rules and laws against a Liberal, they will be the first ones to stand up and shout to change those rules and laws.


Some would think this would be a reason for the Liberals to demand more laws. In truth this is what will most likely happen. However, by doing this cross voting and cross rule using you begin to force the hand of the Liberal.


They cannot stand to have their own rules and laws used against them. So they will scramble to to change them. They will call conservatives unfair. This will show their true light. But once that light is shown we cannot allow it to dim.


We have to let our government officials know that we will not stand by any more and have our Liberty and Freedom stripped from us any longer.


We must gather more people to our fold by showing how foolish those on the left really are. How they don't want to play fair or have debate on ideas. They just want to force their beliefs on each and every one of us.


Operation Chaos has to disrupt their train of thought. We have to get them so busy defending an undependable position that they do not have time nor money to make new rules and laws that limit our freedom and liberty.


Operation Chaos has to keep the Liberal on the ropes. It has to keep the Democrat Primary going for as long as possible so that the Liberals tear each other apart and so that more of their true beliefs surface. The more that happens the more people...you the voter...will see what a bunch of bunk these people are trying to feed us all. You will see that they do not believe in what they are pushing on the rest of us. It is all about feelings and making themselves feel good about doing something about nothing really.


Operation Chaos code name Disruptor is now in effect. Now is the time to make sure every single Liberal idea is brought to light. Keep pounding on the ideas they put forth and how they will restrict or eliminate your God given Freedom and Liberty.


This is an important election. We can turn the tide back towards freedom and liberty with the right people leading us in the battle. We can find and raise those who are far better than Ron Paul who will hold the Constitution in its correct regard. We can Disrupt the Liberal agenda once and for all and bring Liberty and Freedom back to the people from whom it was stolen.


Operation Chaos code name Disruptor is now in effect. Do your civic and American duty to stop those who would take your freedom and liberty.


Stop. Think. Vote!

Earth day and the Oil Cartels

Earth Day is here again. Yes, I said Earth Day. Now before I get into this wonderfully bogus holiday, let me say this. Earth day is nothing more than a sham at making a few people feel good and the rest of us feel terrible.


This is pretty much a USA thing. Sure, Earth Day is celebrated in some form in most western societies. But none of them have the fervor that we seem to have here in the United States.


We have taken Earth Day and turned it into a shrine holiday. Worship the earth and all that it gives life too except humans. We are evil scum that should get down on our knees and kiss the dirt from which we are born.


We here a lot about how we, those of us in the United States and to a lesser extent, Canada, are using more than our fair share of natural resources. Forget the fact that much of these natural resources come from our own lands. We still use more than our fair share.


I am not sure who decided what OUR fair share should be but there you have it.


There is a lot of talk about gas prices going through the roof. There is a lot of Liberal blame on President Bush and HIS war in Iraq.


To be sure, the Bush administration does have to take some of the blame for oil prices stretching for $125 per barrel. Our dollar has been weakened to such a point where the Canadian dollar is now worth more than the American dollar. That is a shame.


But you have to ask yourself, how can we get out of this mess in short order and do it in a way that would help the economies of the world? How can we shore up our dollar, bring down oil prices and force the oil baron cartel of OPEC to play more nice?


Easy. In fact we could have things in place within 3 to 7 years. But we would have to get rid of or at least expose and silence the radical left and environmentalist.


We have not built a new refinery since the early 70's in our country. How do we expect to keep up with technology and energy demands if we don't have the capacity to produce our own fuels? Why is it we have enough oil within our own borders but we cannot drill for it?


Here is the simple and easy plan. We do have to have alternative sources of energy. I agree. That is why every single wind farm that is on the books in the planning stages should be built. Wind is clean and renewable. We need those farms off the coast of our nation and inland on high hills and mountains.


We need to build more solar power generating plants in the south and southwest. Why not tap into the clean energy of the sun. It is silent and clean energy.


We need to start drilling for our own oil off the Gulf Coast, off the California and Oregon Coast and in Alaska. We need to begin extracting oil from shale in the upper Mid West of our nation. If we begin to flood the market with our own oil, that would force the price per barrel down through the basement.


Our dollar would rise in value because we would not need to buy oil from afar. We have enough right here. A strong dollar means that we can buy more with it. Gas prices in our country would head south and probably level off somewhere around $1.75 to $2.00 per gallon.


Lastly we need to build more geo-thermal energy plants in area where it is viable. Again a clean source of renewable energy.


We could also build (and should) more nuclear power plants. It is a proven and safe source of energy that would reduce the need for fossil fuel energy plants.


Speaking of fossil fuel energy, we should build more plants that burn the discarded tires we have all over the country. This would also serve to clean up huge piles of these ugly, dangerous and growing piles of used tires.


I read somewhere that the United States has enough tires currently to light up or 5 largest cities for 50 years. And of course more tires are produced and discarded every day so this is an endless supply of rubber. Well at least until we get flying cars that don't need wheels.


If we did all of these things (which we should have been doing anyway) we would become energy independent. We would lead the world in energy production. We would force OPEC to play more nice and cut prices. We would not be paying $3.00 and $4.00 a gallon for gas. Not when we have the ability to pay less.


Besides if we don't do the above things, it will only get worse. I mean China is now looking at big cars, trucks and SUV's to buy and put on their roads. Looks like a billion plus people are looking to join the industrialized west.


We need to act now or we will become the new third world. Conservation and restriction is not the answer. Innovation and access is the key to staying on top.


Stop. Think. Vote.
