What to make of the concentration camps being built and financed, the further wars that are a possibility, the hurricanes, the laws set up to make martial law a probability.....
the media not doing their job at decrying any of this well enough.
The movements of religious people to decry the ways of America by touting vague scriptures...
The 2012-ists.
What are you supposed to do? Pray? How do you pray so that you get what you are looking for? Leave America? Flee it before it's far too late? But how on Earth could we really let another holocaust happen?
Is it completely fixed upon your perspective, whether you are optimistic or pessimistic. Can you do whatever you want and go wherever you want, and survive without a scratch as long as you don't cave in to lower vibrations?
What does a person make of anything right now, other than nothing? Nothing is the only thing I can make out of anything. Fear wants me to jump on the Christian bandwagon and get out of Babylon...... but I don't qualify as being very much of a Christian and am fairly critical and cynical of the Bible.
Fear also wants me to stay right here and enjoy the luxuries that America has given me.
Reason says to just wait and see..... but if you wait and see, that's when legal travel out of the country might be impossible...... because you've waited too late.
Is nothing at all going on? Are they just corrupt..... no doomsday on the way? Because it just seems like the police state gets more and more solid as the people get more and more apathetic. If the end is near what in the world are you supposed to do? Who do you put your trust in?
The conspiracy theorists and their tales of Haliburton's detention camps? The religious ones and their takes on scripture and prophecy? The new agers and their spinoffs on Christ conscoiusness and 2012? Can you remain agnostic when you know there must be something going wrong, you just aren't sure if it will come to fruition?
-------------------- I am the MacDaddy of Heimlich County, I play it Straight Up Yo! ....I embrace my desire to feel the rhythm, to feel connected enough to step aside and weep like a widow, to feel inspired, to fathom the power, to witness the beauty, to bathe in the fountain, to swing on the spiral of our divinity and still be a human...... Om Namah Shivaya, I tell you What!

you do the same thing any free man does when bigots tell him how to act and what to think.
you say: "Fuck em" and do your own thing anyway.
what are you afraid of? Being nailed to a tree? Thats pretty much all they can do, and trust me, that ain't much.

Take your best shot. (I'm looking hard at leaving the country) Then if it doesn't work out, you can go down swinging. You're a dead man either way.

Actually that was at a concert where he was so drunk that all he could do was slump against an amp and say that famous line.

Come here, the drug police in my town is just another street gang of youngsters here (fresh from college), they don't obey the law much for the sake of keeping the law, but they can also be fooled more easily, sometimes they get beaten up by another gang, it's ridiculous.
One time, they searched the entire car of a couple of friends of mine, searching for drugs, and when they didn't find anything, they took them out for a drink for hiding it so well. They are just kids playing with guns and badges

What to do?
Well, if you believe in Biblical armagedon, then do nothing, be good, and you will never see the tribulations, you will be taken aboard a starship before it begins. They you will return together with Jesus and the resurrected souls, then you can "fornicate" all you want with your new wife for eternety in flesh, and make thousands of enlightened kids.
Hey, Isn't christianity the most promising religion?

lol.
Well I don't know. This Christian movement says we have to leave on our own.
All the pieces are in play for a holocaust, the only thing missing is sense... it defies all logic that it would happen... but you know what we have the camps. We have the wars. We have the code red martial law terror affect. We have no constitution. We have precedents set to persecute anyone we want by labeling them terrorist.
It was done in WWII by us to the Japanese.
The only question would be why in the world? What to gain? Nothing to gain, they already have everything..... do they want more? Who is they? Is it just paranoid conspiratorial nonsense? Why do they have the camps then?
Can the threat from terrorists truely be legitimate? Is that what it's for? Is the PATRIOT act actually needed ?
It's absurd.... I had a vision of mr LEDER and he looked nothing close to hostile or sinister..... or evil...... Are both dualities realized at the same time, with us left in the middle able to choose? Is this nazi America if we want it to be.... or a paradise in the making if we want it to be?
Is he just a part of our psyches, our lazy American apathetic psyches? Is it all that existential? All that much a dream where each of us is a valid author?
Does anyone get what I'm saying and asking?
I want to stay here and I want Americas freedoms restored. I don't want to abandon the civilized world. But if I have no say in it then I may have to leave fairly soon..... I dunno.

The "christian movement" should read the Bible because they swear on it. It is described there that christians would be taken in the blink of an eye, through a process of "rapture"
"Two shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord does come "
