"There is no crueler tyranny than that which is perpetuated under the shield of law and in the name of justice." - Charles De Montesquieu
"If you tremble with indignation at every injustice then you are a comrade of mine." - Ernesto Guevara
"Each
time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of
others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple
of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of
energy and daring those ripples build a current which can sweep down
the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance." - Robert F. Kennedy
"I
agree with Dante, that the hottest places in hell are reserved for
those who, in a period of moral crisis, maintain their neutrality" - Martin Luther King Jr.
Americans are just like me.....we want to kick ass, just like the Romans, only .01% benifit from this mass frenzy of mob mentality, or the Americans, The ones ,who agree with evertything the mass media are told to regurgitate, are still around , the rest are sill slaves...most just citizens really don't know they are economic slaves and are happily forced to work, not for themselves, but the states war machine and government to control and AND direcy streets and our social contacts, [they] really do tell us what to think ; education has been effectively educated out of the 'commons' the AM/Romans and Americans/brits (fuck france) and we are becoming extinct and quickly... truth snuffed, kos

please let this great soul go.....someone carry the mantle, need someone, everyone to step-up
During my lifetime I have dedicated myself to this struggle of
the African people. I have fought against white domination, and I have
fought against black domination. I have cherished the ideal of a
democratic and free society in which all persons will live together in
harmony and with equal opportunities. It is an ideal which I hope to
live for. But, my lord, if needs be, it is an ideal for which I am
prepared to die.
as boomers get older and can only tax the system, if oshe went after health care the way they did most any workers unions we would see this not be happening...educationally stunted,., poorly trained.. WE police our, own while we, even in health care, the older, we whom should not let ME die in a pool of my own waste....not that we worked all of lives and the apathy we teach our own to em,ulate, now
yes Americans pay, much, much, more exponentially, get lots, lots less more....thanks to current health care policy .......we import health care because our priorities are fucked up. For every inmate the u.s. houses than U receiving final healthcare more more tax dollars are spend housing non violent criminals for smoking pot that taking care of grandma.....
The federal authorities hold our money they should realize we work hard for the betrayals, be better at managing, spent on locking up knuckle-head punks thank helping those that paid their salary's all these years.............throw grandma under the bus....everyone will pay without a morale compass or anyone willing to work for false promises....the ME generation speaks volumes for society as of now, myself..........disappointment: we are better than this!!
this nation could be training a doctor, a nurse, a firefighter, a teacher..........on the same dime, what the fuck, these ideas might benefit society, half are locked up, and the other half of us are guarding? Can this insanity go on much longer?
More cops, detention officers, lawyers, judges, prisons what? do the math. what reheb no longer works? who saz..education fail? look here you, the sheeple are being led...to slaughter.....they already know what to do "another 'bric's in the wall"......(Brazil, Russia, India, China (bric),s,. the s is for us .they are getting to throw brics at us. watch the fuck out
I'm loving it.............

Hemp has been making a lot of noise lately, especially with the growing awareness surrounding the use of hemp oil for treating cancer. Although the word ‘hemp’ still often gets confused and lumped into the same definition as Cannabis, a similar but psychoactive plant, it’s important to realize hemp can be a major game changer for our world if used to its potential. As we go through this post, you will be wondering ‘why don’t we use this stuff all the time.. for everything?!’ Simple answer, farming hemp was banned in the US and other countries in the 1937 because of the threat it caused to certain companies and their businesses. More about that here.
Although hemp has many practical uses, let’s focus on one that would affect us every day; clothing. For this, we will compare hemp to cotton, as cotton is a very popular resource used in clothing production. We’ll need to focus on various areas that have to be taken into consideration when comparing the two so we can determine not only what is better for us, but also what is best for our environment as it’s important to view things holistically. Let’s do it.
Dear friends,
Quietly, across the USA, millions of bees are dying, threatening our crops and food. A new bill this week could ban one group of deadly pesticides and save bees from annihilation, but only if Congress feels the sting of public opinion.
America’s bees are facing a chemical Armageddon -- just last week, 50,000 died in a single car park in Oregon after being exposed to pesticides, and last winter over 50% of all California’s bees died. Leading scientists blame one group of pesticides called neonicotinoids. The evidence is so compelling that the entire European Union has begun banning them, and the Save America's Pollinators Act could impose a ban on these deadly poisons in the US.
Now it's up to us to get our politicians to save America's bees. Big Agriculture and powerful chemical companies like Bayer are already lobbying hard to stop the bill, but if we show an overwhelming public support for a ban, we can counter their influence. Sign the petition below and tell everyone -- when we reach 250,000 signers, we'll take Avaaz's giant inflatable bee to Capitol Hill to tell Congress to save our bees:

Bees don't just make honey, they are vital to life on earth, every year pollinating 95 types of fruits such as avocados, almonds, apples, and that’s just the A’s -- with an estimated $30bn value. Without immediate action to save bees, many of our favorite fruits, vegetables, and nuts could vanish from our shelves.
Recent years have seen a steep and disturbing global decline in bee populations -- some bee species are already extinct and some US species are at just 4% of their previous numbers. Scientists have been scrambling for answers. Some studies claim the decline may be due to a combination of factors including disease, habitat loss and toxic chemicals.
But increasingly, independent research has produced strong evidence blaming neonicotinoid pesticides, forcing the European Union to temporarily suspend use of one or more of these bee killers. But, in the US, the EPA has been slow to react -- their review won’t be completed until 2018 condemning our bees to 5 more years of chemical Armageddon.
This issue is now coming to the boil as major new studies have confirmed the scale of this problem, and Representatives Blumenauer and Conyers have introduced legislation. If we can get other members of Congress to act, we could shut down once and for all Bayer’s influence on policy-makers and scientists. The real experts -- the beekeepers and farmers -- want these deadly pesticides prohibited until and unless we have solid, independent studies that show they are safe. Let's support them now. Sign the urgent petition to Congress now, then forward this email:
https://secure.avaaz.org/en/usa_save_the_bees/?binitdb&v=27215
We know we can win on bees. Last April, over 2.5 million of us signed a petition calling on the EU to adopt a ban on bee killing pesticides and won! And in the US, nearly a million of us persuaded the EPA to review their position on these poisons. Now let’s go one step further towards saving bees!
With hope,
Iain, Luis, Anne, Alex, Allison, Ricken, and the whole Avaaz team

To be an artist is to fail, as no other dare fail...
failure is his world and to shrink from it desertion, art and craft,
good housekeeping, living... Samuel Beckett
Ever try, ever fail....... fail better
Why can no one see how modern social engineering has molded and polarized our society into one that the mass media has foisted upon us, on issues, that have historically should have galvanized us common struggling folks into action, we[they] do not want social services or free health care or illegal drugs....WE WANT FUCKING LIVING WAGES PROVIDED BY JOBS.......the poor will work for nothing when forced to feed others, some even provide for their own, however when you take everything, including eduction, to help ourselves and copy-write our own thoughts..... nothing left but rebellion....starve, fight, or/and die: choose one......least the elite have or already stole them. To slop [their] hog trough.....fuck'in SWINE
