Current mood:  working
okies.....for the record...something to think about...FACTS....Not as easy to find & verify as they once were, but they are still out there, somewhere..it just takes a little more work than it used to and a little comon sense to recognise the puzzle peices falling into place...how about you stop listening to the 'man'  behind the curtain who's sole job it is is putting on a show to Distract you & keep you frightened of the great 'unknown', & take a bit of  that time wasted in chatrooms , blogs, and/or porn sites & look for the undeniable Truth..learn what is Really happening, so at least you know..then decide what you want to do.

i'm gonna make it a wee bit easier than i had it & give you some facts to look up.....at least try finding these on Google, Youtube, Science sites & many other places Not limited to the un-united states controlled cyberairwaves...

Fact: The Mayan Calendar is accurate..it was not made to shock & amaze you it was made to keep track of a re-occuring event, for preperation purposes...many Indegenous peoples keep track of this event so they can prepare for it

Fact: Ainunaki - the birdmen & the lizards exist..humans are not, never were, nor ever will be the Only people at the Top of the pecking order...get over it, some things just are, and in the overal picture, it means nothing other than your history is all messed up & you do not know it. This greatly affects what you know of your future.

Fact: Nibiru - a very real cycle happens here every so many thousands of years..it has for millenia & it is happening again now. Some of you will live through it,  as always, and some of us will die

Fact: World Governments know all about it, but are not telling you cos they have no means or desire to protect every one of you

Fact: Archeology - there is ample physical proof being suppressed..maybe to prevent panic..of  ancient advanced civilisations  buried beneath the earth change rubble, many were as advanced as yours & some were even more so, as the ecology & economics were far more sound...also, physical evidence on epic earth changes, planetary changes, resulting from this cycle

Fact: Man can Not rule Nature, Nature Will have it's way..evolution is happening, only those whom evolve in time will be able to survive the long  years before earth is herself again

Fact: Multi celestial physical upheaval from this occurance has already begun & the bigger planetary changes is/are happening within the next 2-5 years, no matter who says what.

Fact: Most peoples know these things already, instinct on a celluler level, cellular memory, but, perhaps, out of fear choose to ignore it


Fact: Ignoring a thing will not make it go away


Fact: Learning  & Understanding can & will make a Big difference in your life, in how you live

LEGAL UPDATE                           25 June, 2008

Constitutional Violations

On August 6, 2002, a Petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus was submitted to the United States District Court in the District of Columbia. This pending appeal concerns the unconstitutional misapplication of the Sentencing Reform Act of 1984 (under which prisoners sentenced "under the old system" were to be issued release dates no later than October 1989) by the U.S. Parole Commission. On February 20, 2004, a Reply Brief on the government's Motion to Transfer (to the U.S. District Court in the District of Kansas) was filed. In March, the DC District Court granted the government's Motion to Transfer. The District Court denied the Petition and the case has been appealed to the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals. As of this writing, the case and a related civil action have been completely briefed and currently are awaiting a decision from the Court.
The Sentencing Reform Act (SRA) was passed to address what Congress thought were inconsistent sentences imposed by different judges on different individuals convicted of the same crimes, as well as arbitrary parole decisions. A new system—one of determinate sentences—was born and the Parole Commission was abolished.
At the heart of Peltier's argument is the refusal of the government to enforce Title II, Chapter II, Section 235(b)(3) of the Sentencing Reform Act. Effective on October 12, 1984, this part of the law ordered that parole dates "consistent with the applicable parole guideline" be issued to all "old system" prisoners within the following five-year period, at the end of which time (on October 11, 1989) the Commission would cease to exist. 
On December 7, 1987, Congress enacted Public Law 100-182 which amended the SRA; repealed, in Section 2, the release criteria established by the original section 235(b)(3); and restored the release criteria under 18 U.S.C. 4206.  This amendment did NOT restore the Parole Commission or remove its obligation to establish mandatory release dates, with sufficient time for appeal, by October 11, 1989. These changes to the law also applied only to crimes committed AFTER the law was amended on December 7, 1987. The amendment simply did not apply to the Leonard Peltier or some 6,000 other "old system" prisoners still held by the U.S. Bureau of Prisons today.
After it had technically ceased to exist, the Parole Commission claimed it needed more time to complete its work. Congress inexplicably granted a number of after-the-fact extensions, the first in 1990 and the latest in 2002. Peltier's attorneys claim these extensions were legally invalid and therefore inapplicable because, at the time they were made, the Parole Commission had already been abolished. 
Mr. Peltier should have been given his certain release date by October 11, 1989, minus sufficient time to exhaust appeals. Had the Parole Commission followed the congressional mandate, Peltier would have been released over a decade ago. Lacking in any statutory authority, the U.S. Parole Commission in fact illegally extended Leonard's term of imprisonment. The failure of the Parole Commission to give a release date to Peltier violated the ex post facto, Bill of Attainder, and Due Process clauses of the U.S. Constitution.
Withheld Documents
The legal team continues to press the government to produce the case documents which it has withheld for over 30 years. As a result of Peltier’s FOIA lawsuits, it has been learned that the FBI actually possesses over 100,000 pages of material which it has failed to provide to Peltier and his legal team.
The following is an overview of only one of Peltier's FOIA lawsuits in pursuit of documents still withheld by the FBI. Specifically, the lawsuit is against the Minneapolis Field Office of the FBI. The records in this FBI field office are of particular interest as Minneapolis was the Office of Origin for the RESMURS ("Reservation Murders") investigation. This field office maintains 90,000 pages of material responsive to Leonard’s FOIA request.
On August 15, 2003, Magistrate Susan Richard Nelson (U.S. District Court – Minnesota) issued an order denying without prejudice Peltier’s Motion for a Vaughn Index (a listing detailing the documents withheld and the FBI’s reasons for doing so) and granting the FBI’s Motion for a Stay of Proceedings. The magistrate concluded that exceptional circumstances exist where the resources of the FBI are inadequate to deal with the volume of FOIA requests it receives within congressionally mandated time limits. The magistrate also ruled that the FBI has shown due diligence in processing its requests. However, the FBI was ordered to give four-month updates and produce documents as they were reviewed. Specifically, the FBI was to begin releasing documents no later than December 2004 and to complete processing by December 2005.
On December 30, 2004, the FBI produced 5,112 pages of material from its Minneapolis Field Office File #70-10239 Sub X Sections 1 through 97. The documents released made it clear that the FBI was not acting in good faith with respect to the processing of Leonard Peltier’s FOIA request. The 5,112 pages released consisted of Leonard Peltier’s 1977 trial transcript, as well as the trial transcript from the case of USA v. Robideau and Butler—material to which the legal team already had full access. Incredibly, the FBI withheld 144 pages from these transcripts on the basis that they were exempt from disclosure under Exemption (b) (5).  The FBI subsequently released an additional 5,167 pages of records from its Minneapolis field office.
The government also tried to delay producing these documents and future documents by demanding the payment of monies (fees) up front. This was a change in tactics. Previously, the government had produced the documents and the legal team then reimbursed them for the cost.
As of this writing, the FBI has reviewed 77,149 pages and released 66,594 pages in full or in part. However, 10,555 pages were withheld in their entirety.
Due to the release of some documents, evidence was discovered establishing that Douglas Durham, who was a confidential source paid by the FBI to infiltrate the highest levels of the American Indian Movement and who was exposed on March 7, 1975, spoke with and provided information to William Halprin, the Chief Prosecutor from Canada against Leonard Peltier in connection with his extradition proceedings. Halprin requested Durham's involvement "to enable him to utilize source [Durham] to refute statements made by Peltier's defense." The FBI instructed Durham "to provide information requested by Crown Attorney [and]... If recontacted by Halprin, he would cooperate fully and would keep Omaha advised of developments."
Proof of extensive infiltration of Peltier's legal defense team would show egregious misconduct on the part of the government. Such proof would likely result in Leonard Peltier's conviction being overturned. Therefore, on September 8, 2006, Peltier's attorneys again argued before United States Magistrate Judge Susan R. Nelson for the full release of all FBI files maintained by the Minneapolis Field Office relating to Leonard Peltier.
Knowing the impact such revelations would have on Leonard Peltier's case, the government is fighting vigorously to prevent these documents from being released to the public. Among other things, the FBI claims that the release of this information would harm national security and reveal the identities of confidential sources. Leonard Peltier's lawyers argued that these claims are nothing more than pretexts to prevent the release of further evidence of the continuing violation of Leonard Peltier's constitutional rights, and further drives home the fact that Leonard Peltier never received a fair trial. 
The District Court, however, has concurred with the FBI's position. Therefore, on June 8, 2007, Peltier attorneys filed with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit an appellate brief asking the Court to review and release some 11,000 pages of documents related to the investigation and prosecution of Leonard Peltier. Oral argument in the case was heard by the Court of Appeals on March 11, 2008. The Court's decision is pending.

..darn clouds anyway *grins*...Supposed to have a Wonderful star shower tonight & the sky keeps closing up ><

So...read a lot of blogs & bulletins inbetween the time lapse

had some...not so random thoughts...that keep..reoccuring...

maybe can exorcise em here

..it's wicked living in this world...walking between worlds, in a precarious balancing act...one thing is certain, there is nothing i would not do without, nothing i would long for, not one product of this society, should it suddenly crash to the ground & allow us to return to our Old world. Nothing.
...how do i know? ...cos i drop out often....already living without 99.9% of what it has to offer...most, by Choice....almost all of their machinations feel....sick...depraved....unhealthy....damaged goods...poison.


gang mentality...is not a natural human development..just like the drugs on the streets did not grow in anyone's garden.. Gangsta, especially with drugs added, is a vile toxic concoction that robs our very identities in the deepest sense & replaces the essence of us with illusion & dissilusion..breeding Rage
When drugs proved to enslave, they dreamed up a vehicle illusion   of freedom called Gangsta to move these killer sicknesses into Your home..both are created by the same evil people, to control the masses...decades ago it was first tested in the inner cities where rampant abject poverty + fear = desperation..the shadow people put a lot of time & energy into creating 'hopeless' situations where ordinary people can not think clear..desperation does that.. & when Gangsta was shown to do exactly what they wanted it to do..it was re-packaged & spread, like the malignant cancer it is, to All communities they wanted controlled..decimated..what better way to solve the unwanted people problem than to get those people to kill themselves off?
...just look....it's working like a charm



Life is uncertain
and as such should be appreciated & lived to our full potential...your life, my life..IS NO SMALL THING, it is what it is & we ought use it as an evolutionary advancement or we Waste it

over the years..i've watched an oft frightening, always alarming thing...TV & Music industries telling us what is & is not cool.....duh? *blinks*
As if...we can not sense this ourselves?
 
& while watching this spread like a plague..there arose such a clamor...baaing & bleating & mooing from all points of the compass..Gang mentality sprung up overnight in some of the silliest places ....wtf.
& i saw/see hordes of kids & parents & wannabe second childhood peoples stampeeding to the stores to buy buy buy all kinds of embarassing ugly junk they do not need at insane prices they can not afford...cos...why?....cos the well paid & laughing PR people told em they Must Have it to be cool. Simple as that.
...ohh my gawd.
Well..cos i heard a different drum, Used to feel like the odd man out, alien type subhuman being and kinda hated it, didn't feel the need to look & act &b think like someone else told me to...lately im pretty darn glad to be so dysfunctional & abby normal, not giving a rats..butt if anyone else thinks im cool or not..cos if that is what it takes to become....naw, TY anyway, Please.

Gotta wonder tho..can anyone actually say that gangsta is in Any way a positive advancement? ...does speaking & dressing & acting like a mentally unstable, deranged, dangerous, angry with or without due reason, Very low IQ person with no useful intentions or contributions show positive advancement?? No! ...IT IS DISRESPECTFUL & DEMEANING to YOU & EVERYONE it is inflicted upon. 
Gangsta is built on Disrespect, Belittling...terrible state of mind to be in...and it destroys everything it touches...so....why?

John Lennon knew..he died trying to get the message out....
Cointelpro is alive & well, flourishing actually.....and it has you


moi...im going back outside & watch the starshower
with hot choccy & a blanket

Checkpoint Charlie

Stop resisting, though the individual does not move but from wince of repeated blow, the proof rushes in before you. I am not out of my mind. The world is for allowing the continuance of such behavior. We are told to approach with caution the steps where we tread, that questioning authority is rebellion. Somewhere out there, a memo preserved on the inside of a locker, the new policy down the ranks. The laws of man and science suspended, a defensive move countered as an upraised hand, planes roaming the countryside for near two hours with no response.

Fear palpable found in shaking camera, the jockey for better position, the obstructions rising up before us, crossing our path. Witness does not wish to see, cannot blink nor turn away lest detected by those with roving pry finger spread as the hand covers the face. Higher learning just got an education.

Current mood:  froggy
Tuesday, October 13, 2009 

At a fund-raising dinner for a school that serves children with learning disabilities, the
father of one of the students delivered a speech that would never be forgotten by all
who attended. After extolling the school and its dedicated staff, he offered a question:
'When not interfered with by outside influences, everything nature does, is done with
perfection.

Yet my son, Shay, cannot learn things as other children do.He cannot understand
things as other children do. Where is the natural order of things in my son?'  
The audience was stilled by the query.
The father continued. 'I believe that when a child like Shay, who was mentally and
physically disabled comes into the world, an opportunity to realize true human nature
presents itself, and it comes in the way other people treat that child.'
Then he told the following story:
Shay and I had walked past a park where some boys Shay knew were playing
baseball. Shay asked, ‘Do you think they'll let me play?' I knew that most of the boys
would not want someone like Shay on their team, but as a father I also understood
that if my son were allowed to play, it would give him a much-needed sense of
belonging and some confidence to be accepted by others in spite of his handicaps.
I approached one of the boys on the field and asked (not expecting much) if Shay
could play.
The boy looked around for guidance and said, 'We're losing by six runs and the game
is in the eighth inning. I guess he can be on our team and we'll try to put him in to bat
 in the ninth inning.'
Shay struggled over to the team's bench and, with a broad smile, put on a team shirt.
I watched with a small tear in my eye and warmth in my heart. The boys saw my joy
at my son being accepted. In the bottom of the eighth inning, Shay's team scored a
few runs but was still behind by three.
In the top of the ninth inning, Shay put on a glove and played in the right field. Even
though no hits came his way, he was obviously ecstatic just to be in the game and on
the field, grinning from ear to ear as I waved to him from the stands.
In the bottom of the ninth inning, Shay's team scored again. Now, with two outs and
the bases loaded, the potential winning run was on base and Shay was scheduled to be
next at bat.
At this juncture, do they let Shay bat and give away their chance to win the game?
Surprisingly, Shay was given the bat.
Everyone knew that a hit was all but impossible because Shay didn't even know how to
hold the bat properly, much less connect with the ball.
However, as Shay stepped up to the late, the pitcher, recognizing that the other team
was putting winning aside for this moment in Shay's life, moved in a few steps to lob
the ball in softly so Shay could at least make contact... The first pitch came and Shay
swung clumsily and missed. The pitcher again took a few steps forward to toss the ball
softly towards Shay.
 As the pitch came in, Shay swung at the ball and hit a slow ground ball right back to
the pitcher. The game would now be over. The pitcher picked up the soft grounder and
could have easily thrown the ball to the first baseman. Shay would have been out and
that would have been the end of the game.
Instead, the pitcher threw the ball right over the first baseman's head, out of reach of
all team mates. Everyone from the stands and both teams started yelling, ‘Shay, run to
first! Run to first!'  Never in his life had Shay ever run that far, but he made it to first
base.
He scampered down the baseline, wide-eyed and startled.  Everyone yelled, 'Run to
second, run to second!' Catching his breath, Shay awkwardly ran towards second,
stumbling and struggling to make it to the base.
 By the time Shay rounded towards second base, the right fielder had the ball. the
smallest guy on their team who now had his first chance to be the hero for his team.
He could have thrown the ball to the second-baseman for the tag, but he understood
the pitcher's intentions so he, too, intentionally threw the ball high and far over the
third-baseman's head.
Shay ran toward third base deliriously as the runners ahead of him circled the bases
toward home. They were screaming, 'Shay, Shay, Shay, all the Way Shay'. Shay
reached third base because the opposing shortstop ran to help him by turning him in
the direction of third base, and shouted, 'Run to third! Shay, run to third!'
As Shay rounded third, the boys from both teams, and the spectators, were on their
feet screaming, 'Shay, run home! Run home!'  Shay ran to home, stepped on the plate,
and was cheered as the hero who hit the grand slam and won the game for his team.
'That day', said the father softly with tears now rolling down his face, 'the boys from
both teams helped bring a piece of true love and humanity into this world'.
Shay didn't make it to another summer. He died that winter, having never forgotten
being the hero and making me so happy, and coming home and seeing his Mother
tearfully embrace her little hero of the day!
AND NOW A LITTLE FOOT NOTE TO THIS STORY:
We all send thousands of jokes through the e-mail without a second thought, but when
it comes to sending messages about life choices, people hesitate.
The crude, vulgar, and often obscene pass freely through cyberspace, but public
discussion about decency is too often suppressed in our schools and workplaces.
If you're thinking about forwarding this message, chances are that you're probably
sorting out the people in your address book who aren't the 'appropriate' ones to
receive this type of message Well, the person who sent you this believes that we all
can make a difference. We all have thousands of opportunities every single day to help
realize the 'natural order of things.'
 So many seemingly trivial interactions between two people present us with a choice:
Do we pass along a little spark of love and humanity or do we pass up those
opportunities and leave the world a little bit colder in the process?
A wise man once said every society is judged by how it treats it's least fortunate
amongst them.

 You now have two choices:
 
 1. Delete
 
 2.. Forward

May your day, be a Shay Day.

"Sun Dance Chief Fasts at White House For Leonard Peltier: seeks meeting with President Obama"

As a result of Peltier’s recent parole denial, Ben Carnes of the Choctaw Nation, and a Sun Dance Chief, states he will go to Washington D.C. to stand and fast in front of the White House between September 5th – 12th, in hopes of securing a meeting with President Obama.

Earlier this year, the LP-DOC sent a letter to President Obama to discuss the case of Leonard Peltier, but the reply from the White House declined to invite members of the committee for a meeting.

Leonard Peltier has been an international cause celeb based upon critical questions surrounding his conviction in 1977 in the deaths of two FBI agents. Amnesty International has designated Peltier as a political prisoner and a U.S. prosecutor has admitted in court during an appeal hearing that he did not know who killed the agents and cannot prove who did. A federal judge who heard this statement was unable to afford any relief wrote a letter to Sen. Inouye to ask the president to grant clemency.

Carnes is a recipient of the 1987 Oklahoma Human Rights Award for his stand against forced hair cutting of Native prisoners. He has been asked to speak before congressional committees and has served with numerous human rights, interfaith and Native organizations. He has worked tirelessly on behalf of Peltier for over 28 years, and first became a national spokesperson in 1991. He is also national support group coordinator and advisory board member for the Leonard Peltier Defense Offense Committee.

“The basis of Peltier’s denial by the parole commission is one of hypocrisy. It is also beyond belief that the chair of the US Parole Commission, Issac Fullwood, who is lectures on ethics in law enforcement, would turn a blind eye to the FBI’s abuse of the investigative process. And Ms. Patricia Cushwa, commission member, and Chair of the Maryland parole commission recently supported a pardon for a man who had been executed, because there were questions about the case.” said Carnes. He said that there are questions about Peltier case that remains unanswered, and with this denial, the parole commission have made Peltiers life sentence a sentence of death as he won’t be eligible for parole for 15 years when he is 79 years old. Peltier will observe his next birthday on September 12 when he will turn 65. He has already served 33 years in prison.

Supporters are calling for a world wide 24 vigils on September 11th – 12th to begin at 8:45 AM.

*********
FROM THE LP-DOC:
We call upon all supporters to organize solidarity events and actions in conjunction with Ben's solitary prayer fast in DC on September 12th.
If you can begin a 24 hour vigil on September 11 beginning at 8:45 AM and set up some means of a public address for the 12th to broadcast a live statement from Ben as he concludes his fast. This could very well be an important time in the history of the struggle to bring justice to free Peltier, and in the federal government's relations' with the Native people of this land.
Everyone is asked to work locally, we know not everyone can be in DC at that time, but your work in your area is vitally important.
"The president has made some promises to the First Nations people during his campaign," Carnes said, "and since the election we have been saying it starts with Leonard Peltier. He needs to prove to us he means this!
Otherwise, it is just another in a long running series of broken promises, treaties and broken lives. We will not accept this anymore!"
Leonard Peltier has long reached International celebrity status, based upon critical questions surrounding his conviction in 1977 in the deaths of two FBI agents. He was nominated for the Nobel Prize for the 6th time, and has had the support of world political/spiritual leaders from around the world, including 55 members of Congress who has joined in the call for justice.

Information for contribution can be made through this site to help the committee and the action taking lace in Washington, DC. You can also order litho’s of Peltier’s art or other products to help support the cause of Leonard Peltier.
This is not the time to be quiet, it is time to act – and right now.

The petition


President Barack Obama
The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue
Washington, DC 20500

Dear Mr. President,

Leonard Peltier, an innocent man, was convicted for the 1975 shooting deaths of two agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. U.S. prosecutors have repeatedly admitted that they did not and cannot prove Peltier's guilt and the appellate courts have cited numerous instances of investigative and prosecutorial misconduct in this case. As late as November 2003, the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals acknowledged that "Much of the government's behavior at the Pine Ridge Reservation and its prosecution of Mr. Peltier is to be condemned. The government withheld evidence. It intimidated witnesses. These facts are not disputed."

The courts claim they lack the power to right this wrong. But, as President, you can.
In this case, your concern should be for equal treatment. From the time of Peltier's conviction until the mid-1990s, according to the Bureau of Justice Statistics, the average length of imprisonment served for homicide in the United States ranged from 94 to 99.8 months. Even if you were to take Peltier's two consecutive life sentences into account at the higher end of this range, it is clear that Peltier should have been released a very long time ago. His continued imprisonment after over 30 years appears to be nothing less than revenge for a crime Mr. Peltier did not commit. Personalized and politically motivated vengeance of this kind cannot be tolerated. The concepts of justice and good government require that you act to correct this wrong.

Peltier has served his time. Even by the government's own definition, he has already been imprisoned for a lifetime. In that time, he has missed the simplest things of ordinary life�having dinner with friends, taking walks in the woods, gardening, children's laughter, dogs barking, the feel of rain on his face, the sound of birds singing... winter and summer and spring and fall. He has missed seeing his children and grandchildren grow up. They suffer, too. Mr. Peltier is now a great-grandfather. How many more generations must suffer this tragedy?

After careful consideration of the facts in Mr. Peltier's case, we have concluded that Leonard Peltier does not represent a risk to the public. First, Mr. Peltier has no prior convictions and has advocated for non-violence throughout his prison term. Furthermore, Mr. Peltier has been a model prisoner. He has received excellent evaluations from his work supervisors on a regular basis. He continues to mentor young Native prisoners, encouraging them to lead clean and sober lives. He has used his time productively, disciplining himself to be a talented painter and an expressive writer. Although Mr. Peltier maintains that he did not kill the agents, he has openly expressed remorse and sadness over their deaths.

Most admirably, Mr. Peltier contributes regular support to those in need. He donates his paintings to charities including battered women's shelters, half way houses, alcohol and drug treatment programs, and Native American scholarship funds. He also coordinates an annual gift drive for the children of the Pine Ridge Indian Reservationa successful program that, in 2006, expanded to include other reservations throughout the country.

Leonard Peltier is widely recognized in the human rights community for his good deeds and in turn has won several human rights awards including the North Star Frederick Douglas Award; Federation of Labour (Ontario, Canada) Humanist of the Year Award; Human Rights Commission of Spain International Human Rights Prize; and 2004 Silver Arrow Award for Lifetime Achievement. Mr. Peltier also has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize six times.

Leonard Peltier is over 60 years old and his health is deteriorating. He has suffered a stroke which left him partially blind in one eye. For many years, Peltier had a seriously debilitating jaw condition which left him unable to chew properly and caused consistent pain and headaches. Today, Mr. Peltier continues to suffer from diabetes, high blood pressure, and a heart condition. He risks blindness, kidney failure, stroke, and certainly premature death given his diet, living conditions, and health care.

We, the undersigned, say enough is enough, Mr. President. Do the right thing. Grant Executive Clemency to Leonard Peltier right away.

Thank you for giving fair consideration to Leonard Peltier.

*shrugs* ...ehhh...can't read a single note...but..i love love love all kinds of music, Always something wonderful to be found in every type....&..i've written a few songs, but they were part of a different world...i've played in a band, but, unfortunately not all that versatile, only play drums & harp fairly well to get by & a lil keyboards if it's not to involved..some say i can sing, dunnae about that......but, Music is in my blood, it's how i think, sung not spoken was my first words...maybe cos i hear music in everything.....both parents were musical & so is my bro...Dad was a masterful dancer too.....

..music...is the Original..Universal language...Spirits Voice
..it is as necessary to my survival as air.
This song.........is the one that got away....these words have been in my subconscious heart for a very..very long time....somehow it was flowing by in the river when i was not looking & Floyd snagged it..just as well, he did it far more justice! Beautiful song Floyd! TY!  *wipes tears away & grins*

Found this lil gem on my Besty's blog :) Nice song..sez a Lot
More Changes looming on the horizon now...i wonder...what they will be...



Long ago, for many years
White men came in the name of GOD

They took their land, they took their lives
A new age has just begun
They lost their GODS, they lost their smile
they cried for help for the last time.

Liberty was turning into chains
But all the white men said
That's the cross of changes

In the name of GOD - In the name of GOD - The fight for gold
These were the changes.

Tell me - is it right - In the name of GOD
These kind of changes ?

They tried to fight for liberty
Without a chance in heaven, they gave up.

White men won in the name of GOD
With the cross as alibi

There's no GOD who ever tried
To change the world in this way.

For the ones who abuse His name
There'll be no chance to escape
On judgement day

In the name of GOD - In the name of GOD - The fight for gold
These were the changes.

Tell me - Is it right - In the name of GOD
These kind of changes ?

Tell me why, tell me why, tell why
The white men said:
That's the cross of changes ?

Tell me why, tell me why, tell why,
In the name of GOD
These kind of changes.
..

Imho?...yes...it is in the name of a god..just..not the one they claim it's for...

...arggg!! *RRRROOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAARRRRRR!!*
Unfrikkenbelievable!
Those in power, albeit behind the scenes, are still in power...don't kid yourselves, by thinking Anything has changed for the better....this runaway train of a country is still on the same ill fated course
i've just learned last night that another brother is about to be taken from us....so very coincidently on the very same day they offer us a spark of Hope.....some hope that is.
July 28, mark this day Well..cos...we "might" gain Leonard's freedom..and we might loose Ben.
...it feels, smells, exactly like a hostage trade..& since the wondrous illustrious fbi Swore Leonard would never be Free, im thinking they feed us a false hope..but it's a setup..because we dare to rock their boat (evil day when those boats came here) they wish to deal us yet another blow & dispirit us..grab All our hero's..Gawd i Hope im Wrong

Sooo much lip service so little Action!! ...i've seen a lot of bulletins passed around..heard a lot of speeches & saw heaps & piles of trite condolences & patronising chatter...but i have not seem very many let it get under their skin....not many seem to realise how Real this nightmare, and yes, it IS a forever ongoing Nightmare, is..or..what it Really means to Them
it's like..the majority, of Both camps, are suffering...mass disassociation
i hear it & see it every day..."Poor Leonard"...& it makes me choke
Interesting, even sad..but..not quite Real..not quite interesting enough to keep them up at night, or worry more than 15 minutes about it....ohhh, sooo many don't even know the details, but they pass on the bulletins (complete with catchy stars, hearts & flowers)...with the best of intentions.
Thank You ... :( ... i guess.....

yea, this blurb does come off as sounding angry ennit, and maybe..it is..a little..it certainly is Passionate
can't help it & i won't apologise cos..it's about Real Living People, not pictures & words.

..we as a people are more than a coffee table book or pbs special..we are Alive & not extinct, as some have thought..but we are being decimated tho, thru massive assimilation...in the most insidious way imaginable....status symbol seekers..trophy hunters...i guess they decided if they can't beat us, they'll take us apart to join them...destroy us thru dilution..it's working like a charm..more on that later..it's another Passion rant altogether.
FYI,
Leonard Peltier is More than a face on a peice of paper folks, he's a living breathing Human Being, with thoughts & feelings & Dreams just like You & me...he's not just a 'topic of conversation' to impress your friends with your 'humanitarian interests' or a 'cause' to champion...

Lets Do More than pass the paper..lets All of us Stand Up and Move
Lets Dance

..i gotta get this out Now or bust into flames..
i can't help it and it's cost me some dear freinds & a few Loves, because even though they proclaimed colourblindness, when they found out..i was not the same 'colour'..the friendships waned....oh well.
Not just once or twice, but enough that it made me begin to take notice..of why this might be...and i saw that in their perspective..we are considered "different" quite in the extreme, and tho they will vehemently deny it, the proof is in their subtle actions & words..showing still, that those ingrained old fears about "different" linger in the dark un-used recesses of most people's minds, and consciously, or subconsciously..they do indeed act on em.

Movies & Books & TV shows & Cartoons...subtle brainwashing from cradle to grave...99.9% of the time the Good man/woman has blond hair & blue eyes..the Evil man/woman has black hair &..black eyes? Dark eyes.. Sometimes..grey eyes...ehhh
..i noticed that when i was a little kid..and..it bothered me..but..i pushed it aside..cos i live/ed in a predominately white area, all my life.

At first, up to about age 4..i never really noticed we were different..that lil bit of education came one spring in the form of adult parishoners talking amongst themselves about us, less than 20 feet away, looking right at me while i was outside picking flowers & they were saying awful things about us & our "kind" in general..on the steps of the church where my mother taught sunday school. Every Sunday. i guess..they thought i was deaf as well as dumb..or..grazing >< Hail Mary.

And as i got older..i watched these very same UpStanding Town Pillars do the most despicable, vile, dirtiest of deeds..and still..they glared at us? lol!
Hell, we grew up here and were More 'native' to the area than they were..no matter...we were that dread word..Different

School was interesting here too, the kids in my school, with limited imaginations & bellys full of lone ranger & Tonto..were..really confused as to what i was..most settled for such terms of endearment as Chink & Chinese lady & Jap eyes..cos they thought We were all killed off by Davy Crockett to keep Them safe. ehhh...

..then there were also the Hippies..and their whole 'scene'....which brought it(us) to most of the waking world that we did still exist..but, we were tragically fading into the woodwork like Hiyawatha, so..no worries..They would keep our culture alive...for a price. ;)

Time passed, but..little changed..none for the better
Adverts...show..skin & lots of it..alluring..Beautiful men & women, Mostly Blond, are steaming up our glasses with sex laden promises of...what exactly?
Well..whatever it is..we just gotta have it or we aint cool.
So..we buy what sells, don't we....look at the brothers who marry blond ladies..look at the sisters marrying their men.....then look at how many of us marry each other.
Eh?
"ideally" imho, this should/would be no problem, except...in most cases..the mention of Race Does come up in arguments..repeatedly...& guess who usually throws it first.....subconscious?
...it just frikken never ends...

They want us, but they want us to be Them, then they hate us if we comply cos we either become too much like them & dash their dreams of "exotic" or..not enough & they can't fully relax with us sitting there being so darn different...gad! talk about a rock & a hard place..damned if ya do & damned if ya don't
& it makes me wonder...do they even realise..they are being just as manipluated as we are?

...it's......awful....
So bad..i even paid a small fortune & dyed my hair blond..
..as a teenager i bought a blond wig..
then & now, took pictures..but i hide em tho
cos
hated myself..for trying to look like someone else
for good or bad
i am just.. me....

& that..seems to be my problem..being me.
& in great part..why i noticed this dangerous trend..engulfing our people..absorbing us..to get rid of us..
living here..in a sea of white faces..with only a few families left from our makeshift clan, which was representing several tribes, but they tried to keep to their own, i'll give em credit for that...until..my generation..when the onslaught of Assimilation was increased 10fold

The boys..all craved that yellow or red hair..& this is what gets me..lol..even if the girls were..ahh.. less than attractive, had to have that hair..it became a trophy...as much as we were to them.

Only two men ever really, truly loved me, and both were native...but..they both died young.
No, not from alcoholism, as most will immediately conclude, thank you, they did not live long enough to become alcoholics, thanks to the 'wounded knee incoidents' that kept arrising, causing mass hysteria throughout small minded communities accross this not so great land.
So..i had to marry outside. :(

Just as our men craved their women, so too did their men crave our women.,.and i was no acception...but..at least in this area, & not only for me, it was not a good thing..like all of my 'sisters, .i was abused in every way ..and i was Clearly told, in plain english no one could misunderstand, if i dared to complain or show any spunk, that... i was "just an injun & my people are used to it so..shut the *f* up".
So..ok..that ended badly...
Finally...i was chosen by one of our own & i was in 7th heaven.....and..the same thing happened...but this time, this one, he hated me because i was not white.
Why...even bother with me then?....what....was the point? ....ehh?
Still not figured out what that was all about, nor got exactly how it happened, but im not gonna try no mo, cos i see it everywhere...it's..conditioning at work


Ehhh...okies..jumping off the soapbox now...had to write my feelings down & see if they made any sense...not alltogether sure where i was going with it..except..not exactly appreciating being phased out................or treated like i came all the way from Mars to crash your party or something...

WakeUp Everybody!! Black, White, Red, Yellow.....the Borg are upon us...
