Attempted Murder in Liberty Township: How conventional thinking can hide malice

Because it happened in my neighborhood the attempted murder trial of the young Lakota honors student has been unavoidable. Mitchell Simon tied his parents’ bedroom door together and lit their Liberty Township home on fire committing arson and attempting to kill them because the parents took away his laptop. The father jumped out of their window breaking his leg leaving his wife to be rescued by firefighters. Listening to this story I wondered if this family had been my rivals in previous school levies where they declared that high taxes for Lakota were needed to give their child a great education. This student was after all an honors student and was very well thought of so the reasoning that a child would hate his parents so intensely that he would actually try to burn down their house with them in it, so it took a lot of people by surprise. But why did the kid do it and why were people so surprised? I’ll offer my thoughts at the end of this article, which will be related to my own experience on these matters.

 

The trial of Mitchell Simon was slated to begin Monday with jury selection, but instead the teen pleaded guilty as charged to two counts of attempted aggravated murder and one count of aggravated arson. He faces a maximum of 33 years in prison — 11 years for each count — and will appear for a mitigation hearing June 10 at 9 a.m. prior to sentencing.

Simon’s defense attorney, Brad Kraemer, is expected to put a psychologist on the stand to testify during the hearing. Kraemer said the doctor will talk about how Simon “is still very much a young kid rather than a man” despite his age. Common Pleas Judge Craig Hedric is expected to hand down Simon’s sentence afterward.

According to sheriff’s detectives, on Oct. 23, Simon, then a 16-year-old junior and honors student at Lakota West High School, went to the basement of the family home, found rope left over from when he was a Boy Scout, and used it to tie his parents’ bedroom doors shut. He then retrieved a gas can from the garage and lit fires outside both rooms. Simon was allegedly angry with his parents over his laptop being taken away, according to detectives.

A journal found in the nightstand of Simon’s room near the charred second-floor bedrooms of his parents detailed the angry feelings the teen had for his parents and himself, according to testimony given during a hearing late last year in juvenile court.

Kraemer told the judge that Simon’s parents, Perry and Sharon Simon, “are aware of his guilty plea and do think it is in his best interest.” Simon had limited contact with his parents — who have supported their son at every court proceeding, including Monday’s plea — because of the nature of the crime.

I don’t know these people personally, but I do know the types of people that they are. Likely, they were rabid supporters of the Lakota levy attempts and also previous fire and police levies over the years. In a moment of crises, the father showed what kind of man he was by jumping out the window leaving his wife to be rescued by the fire department. These types of levy supporters do not have any inclination of self-reliance. It does not occur to them to break down a door by head butting it or kicking it down with authority, or if it is simply too think—using furniture to escape. The parents have likely never seen a rappelling rope and surely don’t have such things in their closet that could have been used to scale his wife and him to safety during the crises. The family probably doesn’t even change their own oil in their cars—expecting a specialist to care for every aspect of their lives. Gone are the days from people like this where a man would lay down his life to protect the woman he loves—because such romances have been cheapened to such an extent in our society that nobody thinks with valor anymore.

The level of anger the young boy had for his parents appears to be unjustified by conventional thinking. By conventional I am referring to the progressive mindset of the typical levy supporter who moved to Lakota for the schools and social services—and the sense of community shared by others like them who conjugate on the soccer field sidelines and community sidewalks talking about the latest scandal discussed on The View. Conventional thinking which is represented by the court of law does not understand why the kid did what he did—he lived in a nice home, had loving parents, went to a nice school, associated with nice people—the kid had everything a young person should ever want—and then some. So why would he be so unhappy?

I don’t know for sure—as I said I don’t know those people other than passing them occasionally in a supermarket isle. We only have in common that we live in the same community. But, if I had to place a bet, I would say that the child saw what kind of parents he had and had the crises moment of realizing that he was becoming just like them—and in his journals of hate hoped that he could change his fate by rebelling so violently against them. When he realized he couldn’t, he did the unthinkable—he tried to remove them from his life.

Now that it’s too late—he’s facing most of the rest of his life in jail—his problems seem pretty petty now. If he turned out like his parents it would seem a blessing now compared to the lack of freedom he will now experience for his adult life—his premium years. Compared to where he is in jail it would be wonderful to have a wife in a nice Liberty Township home with a career that paid the bills and then some. At least he’d have the freedom of a movie or occasional golf game. Perspective is everything and a year in jail already likely has diminished greatly the hate he had for his parents on the night he tried to kill them—but why was the anger so intense where he felt no other way out—and how can similar parents prevent the same thing?

As I have said I knew a lot of smart kids in my high school days, and several of them had fantasies of killing their parents. It wasn’t that the parents were bad people and didn’t love their children—it was just that the kids didn’t want to end up like those parents—fat, ugly, unhappy, bitter about life—unimaginative—suck asses so willing to whore themselves away for a nickel. Kids want to know that they have the opportunity to be more than that—and if the parents set the bar low for themselves, the crises of the child is to destroy their fate toward the same end by killing the path that will deliver them to such a destination. I got along with my parents for the most part because I was so rebellious that I didn’t fear falling short of my personal goals because I did not have the needless concern over impressing others to enjoy my personal happiness. But most people are not like that—and they have great conflict between their internal dreams and those provided to them by parents they want to please. Under such circumstances, a parent showing such disapproval of a child already hiding online to avoid becoming exactly like his parents is forced to confront his emotions when the parents take away that hiding place and force the child to deal with reality—which is what he was running from. Since the parents never dealt with the reason for the anxiety—likely because they didn’t pay close enough attention to notice—the boy tried to kill the source of his conflict hoping for relief from the pressure. And what he lost was all his potential freedom forever—and the parents are now stuck wondering what they did wrong when everything they thought they were doing right blew up in their face.

Their biggest mistake likely was in believing that their personal failures as parents could be hidden by a Lakota education. Obviously not. And also likely, this kid isn’t the only one thinking about doing such a thing. Being a smart kid, Simon likely played out his tragedy and saw no way out, where kids not so bright might find it easier to live with their disillusion. The situation is rather common if the reality of real emotions are explored not from the perspective of law and conventional thinking—but what is really going on in the hearts and minds of people. I certainly don’t want to add to the grief of the parents. They did what they thought was right based on what was taught to them. But for others out there dealing with the same raw emotions—there are reasons for the behavior, and those reasons must be confronted and not further pushed down deep into the minds of a troubled teen. Otherwise the consequences will be literal—as they were in this case or internal—as they most of the time are left. But the emotions are always there—and left raw, and primal.

And Lakota is not a substitute for good parenting……….otherwise, the kid would not be in jail.

Oh, and just for reference…………..when people hear about this case they assume that the entire home was ablaze to justify the father jumping out of a window, breaking his legs, and leaving his wife hanging out of an upstairs window in a panic awaiting firemen to rescue her. Listening to Sheriff Jones talk about the case, he declared that the firefighters and deputies risked their life to save the woman and provide care to the man of the house in the yard with broken legs. The son was ready to skip town with his girlfriend in Lawrenceburg to disappear forever—it all sounds very dramatic. But in all reality, the fire only did $2,500 in damage. It was so small that the father could have put it out with a couple of buckets of water from the bathroom sink. If he had burst open the locked bedroom door and put out the fire himself, his son would still be living at home—and would actually have a future. The trio could have talked about the family incident and worked things out. Instead, they panicked and placed their lives in the hands of public officials, and once they did that—the police, and legal system made a circus out of it—to serve their own needs at the expense of the family. Now the boy will live in jail, the mother will yearn for a man who won’t leave her hanging out of a flaming window, and the man will live in embarrassment from jumping out of a two-story window because of a silly little fire he could have easily put out himself—if only he knew how. Such a sad situation for everyone involved. They must have been levy supporters.

Second-hander Jay Carney Leaving Obama: Why the administration promoted another “white guy”

In a world of careful calculation where nothing happens by accident, Jay Carney’s decision to resign within hours of Eric Shinseki’s resignation as Veterans Affairs Secretary says more in what it doesn’t say, than what it does.  The Press Secretary and close advisor to Obama, suddenly decided to leave his post on a Friday at the end of May hoping that by the first Monday of June, the nation would have forgotten why—and forgiven the administration for not standing in front of the press to take barrages of questions that can never be answered especially now that the mismanagement of the VA scandal is just beginning.  Obama and his team at the White House have proven themselves to be everything people like me have said about them—they may be functioning communists, diabolical progressives, even religious radicals—but at the heart of them is serious incompetency that can no longer hide behind slick words carefully constructed by public relations tricks.  For Carney to leave at this point in time points to just how bad it is behind the scenes at the White House attempting to put five major scandals climaxed by the VA situation under a rock that no longer exists.  Carney’s exit is about leaving an administration that will soon collapse in front of the world under the full weight of sheer stupidity—and the now former press secretary is savvy enough to see it.

Carney said that he wanted to leave his post as far back as April indicating that he wanted to spend more time with his children whom he shares with ABC News correspondent Claire Shipman.  Yet such people as Carney and Shipman do not put their children before their careers under any circumstances—ever.  They plot and scheme their social-climbing every minute of every day always on the lookout for a rising star for which they can clip on a tow hook to ride.  As typical second-handers, they live through other people’s achievements.  They don’t raise children—unless they wish to hide behind them—as most progressives do when they desire something whether it is a school levy, or a new law through congress.  For Carney who has already lived in Russia for four years as a correspondent for Time Magazine and later served as bureau chief—what would it cost his children to wait two more years for the Obama administration to leave office?  The answer is nothing.  Carney and his wife have already put career over their kids, and it is unfathomable to think they would have a change of heart now when the most powerful man in the world considers them a friend needing an allay at the hardest point in his life.   Carney’s exit is a strategy in second-handed self-preservation ahead of the growing implication of serious scandals that won’t go away and are picking up momentum.

The blood is now in the water and the sharks smell it.  Obama is in trouble.  The VA debacle for most Americans is the promise of what Obamacare will give them and the world knows it.  Everything that is wrong with the VA—the waiting 115 days for treatment dying in line, the systemic misconduct from every level of that government office and the incompetency of 1700 vets not even put on the list being forgotten by a bureaucracy that has no value for their individuality.  The correct impression is that Obamacare will be handled in the same way.  The VA scandal is the future of America’s health care system—and finally people see it.

How do I know—well, my son-in-law is from England where his family already has this socialized medicine that Obamacare is molded from, and most of his family has moved to The United States chasing the benefits of American life.  Listening to their stories about how difficult it is to get medical care in England sounds exactly like the VA Department under president Obama.  There is no indication that Obamacare could be managed any better—and Americans know it.

Carney is leaving because as a second-hander he knows when there is nothing left to suck off of from the current White House, and also is savvy enough to think that passing duties off to Josh Earnest will buy time for Obama—as Earnest can claim ignorance for a month or two.  About Earnest, isn’t it interesting that such a “progressive” administration as Obama’s didn’t ask an African-American to be his press secretary instead of another “white male,” or even a woman.  Why do you think that is dear reader?  They certainly could have, yet Obama has picked his third white male as press secretary in six years.  Why not give an African-American a chance at the job if the White House is truly progressive.  I’ll tell you that answer too—it is because The White House truly fears that America is a racist nation based on their radical beliefs and will not listen to the lies of anybody but one of their own.  The White House fears these things because they are guilty—not because they are innocent.  The evidence of real behavior and motivations is always in what is not said, not what is.  If Obama really wanted to promote African-American advancement, he’d put someone like Morgan Freeman up as press secretary and let the chips fall where they may the way he has with his corrupt Attorney General Eric Holder.  But where Holder has failed, Obama cannot risk his personal shield—the press secretary to be of a type that will further anger the American public—so they put up a safe—clean cut white guy for the third time in a row.

The guilt of The White House is spilling over to such an extent that Jay Carney hopes to throw himself on the sword for Obama one last time in behalf of the VA scandal, but as a second-hander knows that Obama has nothing left to offer and does not want to be the guy answering questions that will come in the months that follow. So he left, not to be near his children, or hang out with his wife, but to hide from the storm that is coming where a new star will be sought out—or he will hide in obscurity defeated forever as being so intimately attached to an Executive Branch that is riddled with corruption and incompetence to such an extent it might as well be a third world dictatorship.

INTOLERABLE: How the TEA Party was started and why

It took me a few weeks to get around to it, but I finally had the opportunity to watch the new documentary by my old friend Doc Thompson featuring the origins and validation of the TEA Party movement which began during the Bush administration and exploded under President Obama. Now 14 years of deficit spending that is a train wreck in American history the TEA Party has risen as a direct response to the irresponsible nature of government. The documentary is very good and even better, it is free. Doc and his producer Skip LeCombe put a lot of effort into the enterprise and are offering it for mass viewing. They are asking for donations, but the heartfelt documentary can be seen in its entirety at the following link:

http://intolerable.us/

Or, you can see the movie right here:

Written and produced by Matt Roman, along with Doc Thompson and Skip LaCombe, Intolerable was released on Tuesday May 6th featuring original music and material marking the inaugural project of File 55 Productions. It was an ambitious effort that certainly caught the eye of Glenn Beck and was featured on his radio show.

http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2014/05/06/theblaze-radios-doc-and-skip-tell-the-true-story-of-the-tea-party-like-youve-never-seen-it-before/

http://www.glennbeck.com/2014/05/07/new-documentary-seeks-to-tell-the-truth-about-the-tea-party/

Glenn had been encouraging his audience to stop thinking and start acting when it comes to following through on various passions and projects. The Blaze Radio Network’s Doc Thompson and Skip LaCombe personified that advice.

Glenn asked Doc and Skip to talk a little bit about the purpose of the documentary.

“You know the misconceptions about the TEA Party that’s been pushed out there. I got really frustrated after our tour, and I said, ‘Let’s tell the truth about the TEA Party, so people can share it and save their friends and neighbors,’” Doc explained. “[That] is what it really is: It’s good, hard-working Americans that share your same values… You’re going to watch this. You’re going to get good information. And you’re going leave feeling good. You’ve going to have some direction for the future.”

“We offered it for free because we want as many people to see it as possible, but we’re also capitalists,” Doc said. “And then from here, some of the donations we get, we’re going to put the money toward a whole lot of other projects that we have rolling out. We have about 15 things we’re going to do in the next couple of years… We’ve got a bunch of good stories.”

As I watched the film I thought back in time a bit and remembered how the Republican Party tried to cozy up to me during this TEA Party rise. Actual candidates and the people who finance them expected me to be pulled into their web. The Republicans rode the wave of the TEA Party making it their own, and around 2012 turned on it all together. The establishment began taking drastic steps into the other direction, back toward the progressive middle. I remember well the difficult conversations I personally had with high level local Republicans in my town who hoped and prayed that I would play along nicely—which of course I didn’t.

Of course this is how they play the game in Washington and why people like John Boehner and Mitch McConnell are such bad people—at least as politicians.   They talk tough on the stump speeches, but behind the scenes, where the money gets raised—it’s a different story and they expect that the friendships established will make good people overlook bad things for the good of the Party. TEA Party supporters of course didn’t go for this and stood against the establishment which is the cause of a kind of civil war in modern America. The result is that only the strongest people of the TEA Party movement are still actively involved. Gone are the crowds shown in Doc’s documentary, but we all knew even back then that the momentum would not last.

My personal crises came as Judge Napolitano was pulled off the Fox Business Channel, and my friend Doc Thompson was fired from 700 WLW radio within days of each other. Doc was being attacked for his beliefs and the company he was working for hid the termination behind a ratings drain—which wasn’t the case.   And my Republican friends wanted to pull me into their world of charity events and careful politicking that was sensitive to progressive issues—which I personally have no sympathy for. I made my stand, pissed off a lot of people and relationships were fractured forever. When the smoke cleared, I was still a TEA Party supporter and my friends were left without the benefits of my friendship. It was foreign to them that a man would stand on principles and that realization made me very angry.

Many people have pointed out that my articles from the start to the present have changed over time. I can understand that. In the beginning I had hope for people like Governor Kasich, Governor Christy, Paul Ryan, even John Boehner—but after just a few years, they have all failed to hold their moral ground. They proved to be a lot of talk, but way too willing to make a deal just to stay in power. I have watched the NDAA get passed in the middle of New Years Eve, and watched Obamacare shoved down people’s throats. I have watched the Justice Department commit crimes and get away with it because they are the law. With each story, my hope for the preservation of the system as it is currently has evaporated. So the tone of my articles has evolved with that sentiment.

Doc Thompson could have just given up after he was terminated from 700 WLW and his home station in Richmond, Virginia. But he didn’t.   After a lot of fighting, he become employed by Glenn Beck and has excelled from there. Most people would be happy with just a gig like that—but Doc is taking things several steps further and this new documentary is just the start. I am proud to see the documentary Intolerable be released. There is a defiance in it that is healthy for America. Anyone who watches this film and thinks the TEA Party is a bunch of racist radicals is the actual villains of society. Nobody can watch Intolerable and then turn around and say the TEA Party is not the last beacon of light for the freedom that is unique to America—unless they are part of the undoing of it.

Doc and Skip did a great job of representing the TEA Party and getting to the truth of the movement and providing context to the rhetoric that is against it. It is a documentary that has been needed, and now it can be seen by anyone anywhere who has an internet connection. So there is no excuse to not see it. So watch it, learn from it, and spread the word around. Doc Thompson has done the hard work of making it. The least you can do dear reader is give it an audience.

Lakota Student Lies About NFL Career to Impress Teacher: The sickness of teacher/student appeasment

Lakota once again is plastered all over the Tri-State news market for sheer stupidity and carelessness among their reckless administrators and general employees. Word from within the Lakota school system has said that a former student from Adena Elementary came to the school to see his old teacher.  Jeff Kline bluffed his way past the supposed beefed up security which was improved after the recent levy passage in November and enjoyed something of a hero’s welcome as he paraded the halls talking about his experiences playing for the Jacksonville Jaguars.   Here is how Fox 19 reported the story.

At Adena Elementary School in West Chester, you have to check in, get a visitor’s badge and have an escort. That’s what an ex-student did last week. He committed no crime and was “who he represented himself to be,” says a school spokesman.

However, he lied about his career, saying he played in the NFL, according to police, and letters sent home by school staff.

That sent up some red flags, and leaves a lot of “What ifs” in the minds of parents. The incident has the school looking over their security plans and policies. 

“We have officers that are assigned to the beat. They’re obviously going to increase their presence. When you have concerns, when parents are concerned, they want to see that presence up there,” said Capt. Brian Rebholz of the West Chester Police Department.

Police have spent time on the school grounds as students are coming and going from the property.

 

  http://www.fox19.com/story/25520691/lakota-school-looks-at-security-after-man-poses-as-nfl-player

As to the name of the former student no media outlets are reporting it for some reason—the kid is over 18, so saving the boy from embarrassment as a former student is rather stupid—considering they say they are desiring to fix the problem going forward.  Channel 19 did put up the name of a fourth grader in their report, so why the police and school would protect a person who lied their way past security to massage his ego around a bunch of children is unfathomably idiotic.  The Cincinnati Enquirer has the name because they checked NFL records to see if the kid had actually ever played professional football even as a practice squad member—which he didn’t.   Lakota, after the incident is now boosting their police presence, which they stated was the reason for the latest school levy—and they got caught being star struck by a former student who could have just as easily have used the same story to get into a classroom and bring harm to students.  There are so many things wrong with this situation that is being ignored that it is literally unbelievable all the people involved actually consider themselves intellectually mandated to advance society as educators—and they have really missed the mark. As anybody who knows anything about dealing with such matters understands, you must identify the cause, not the effect.  These news outlets have reported the effect of the issue, but not the cause.  Throwing more police into the halls of an elementary school at Lakota and sending home a strongly worded letter might make all the parents feel safe and secure—but it does not solve the problem.

The former student obviously wanted to return back to Adena to fulfill some goal established during his days there as a student.  This is the danger of children bonding more with teachers than their own parents as children.  The parents of this NFL imposter should really be ashamed of themselves for producing such a shallow young man ill prepared for the world.   I mean what was he thinking—even after he went to Adena to have all the little kids and teachers suck up to him with his made up NFL experience—he would still have to return back to his car to drive away knowing that he is a loser who hasn’t done anything yet in life.  The fact that he was willing to put on a cloak of such deception speaks loudly as to his actual values.  He cares more about what people think of him than what he really is, and this will lead to a disaster as this event is just a prequel.

Then there are the idiotic teachers so hungry to believe that their work with the young man led to something wonderful, like an NFL career.  The fact that they so willingly bought the story says that they wished to be deceived—they wanted to believe that their adopted son—a former student of the Lakota school system, could punch out into the world and be successful based on their instruction—and all they really did was raise a liar.  And who would be surprised, after all isn’t that what Lakota is really about?  Aren’t they more concerned with appearances than actuality?  Lakota is about raising money through taxes for their unionized teachers disguised as basically pre-adult day care.  Parents drop their children off to daycare facilities up to age 5 and conduct their lives almost independently—as though they were disconnected from their children leaving the little minds to be raised by baby sitters.  When the children become of age for public school, they are then placed in an older version of day care organized by the state to spur job creation among the men and women who reside within its borders.  Much of what actually happens in public school is about illusion anyway—so that those busy parents don’t feel guilt and change their behavior.  The employees of this ridiculous system wish so fervently that it would work and inspire children to greatness that they will soak up any little morsel of success story as a fact without any analysis contrary to their desire.

Interesting how the school board president Julie Shafer didn’t put the young man’s name up on her Facebook account like she did when I called her levy supporting friends’ fat-assed whores—which they are.  They are metaphorical whores to the needs of the state at the cost of their children which sickens me.  If Lakota wanted to stop the kind of behavior shown at Adena they would have released the kid’s name to put the scare into anyone else thinking of doing such a thing—but Lakota is actually terrified that future students might not do the same and become deterred from massaging their egos with the illusion that their efforts at public education are worthy—and successful.  Lakota school administrators and teachers want to believe that they can teach a child to grow up and become a gladiator in an arena filled with drunken fools and scantily clothed cheerleaders to destroy other human beings with the force of their own head.  Their bodies may become ruined after only 15 years of this behavior, but heck, they might get on ESPN a few times.  That is success—a really good player might be able to purchase a boat in Florida and pour $10,000 into the G-String of strippers on a Saturday night before a big game.  Without question these are the thoughts of the teachers giving Kline a hero’s welcome in the halls of Adena elementary with children present and watching closely the adult behavior.

Ultimately, Lakota produced a child in Kline who would rather lie about his career just to impress others—which could be said about every level of the Lakota organization.  Suppressing stories are the same as lying because the attempt is to hide the truth.  The parents of Kline are even worse, they surrendered the instruction of the young mind of their son to a bunch of pretentious Lakota babysitters who created such a deep yearning for acceptance in the young lad that he actually made up a story about his success to visit an elementary teacher he should have long outgrown and forgotten about.  The story is actually a serious one—it’s not about lying to breach security, it’s about the deep need to lie, so to make a former teacher show once again respect to a grown man who still has unresolved issues from his childhood.  Lakota just as they taught the young fellow did what they always did, they threw a few more cops at the situation to make parents sleep better at night, and will undoubtedly throw more money at the situation which is essentially like throwing gas on a fire—but it makes everyone feel better about themselves.

The cause of this tragedy is that the student, Jeff Kline, desired to actually visit a former teacher and get their approval.  To do it, he had to give the school what he thought they valued to get them once again to look favorably upon him like they did when he was a child yearning for a gold star to be put at the top of his work assignments.  Lakota taught Kline to strive for that appeasement at whatever cost, even if lying is the method of obtaining the objective.  After all, that’s what Lakota does—so why wouldn’t their rudderless students do the same?  The answer is they will do as they were taught—and to that effect Jeff Kline did.

The Trouble With American Productivity: How cannibal cultures and religion destroy initiative

If you have ever tried to start a business, start a new product within a large organization, or make anything that involves the participation of the population at large you will undoubtedly have run up against tremendous opposition that needlessly seems intent to derail your plans. Deep pocket old money tends to purchase away opposition to their projects with political contributions and under the table buy-offs. But new money innovation has only one way through the gauntlet—and that is by surprise. A fledgling entrepreneur must hope that they can take the market by surprise before the parasites zero in and destroy their efforts. Currently in America—as in most places in the world, it is nearly impossible to do business as most organizations are plagued with do-nothing bureaucrats created by government for the purpose of job creation—without any zeal for production of any kind. They have a parasitic relationship with production—the key to any economic endeavor–and simply get in the way of creating anything of value. The reason for this issue is actually extremely complicated and must be understood by examining closely the map below. It is not enough to complain that the situation is one of economic theory or political philosophy—but is much more primal than that and extends back to the beginning of the human race.image

Looking at the map it will be seen the pattern of ritual cannibalism cultures as they flourished during various periods throughout the world. The map is useful and comes from the book Atlas of World Mythology: Way of the Seeded Earth Part II and is one of the most treasured books in my collection. The map is not concerned with periods by millennia so much as the pattern and residual effects of cultures that had foundations of cannibalism and human sacrifice in their societies. In Europe this was a dominate ideal which can clearly be seen in the Biblical translations that flourished in Europe during the times of the first printing presses and the Roman Catholic Church who built their version of Christianity around such ideals of sacrifice.

Across the Middle East it will also be noticed that the entire region from Greece down to the Persian Gulf had elements of cannibalism which should be obvious to the students of Zoroastrianism which became the foundation of Christianity and Islamic faith—both riddled with deep beliefs in sacrifice serving as their foundations. It should not be a surprise that the concept of Sharia Law allows for it’s followers to sacrifice themselves in this world for promises in the next—which is the basic premise behind the human bomb terrorism acts. The notion of human sacrifice is alive and well behind every Islamic terrorist. The goal of the terror is to convert people into Islamic faith through fear—to force them to take the path of least resistance. They are not asking people to become committed to the Muslim faith through religious purity—but through fear. This is a tribal remnant to their ancient tendency toward cannibalism. Their mythology which formulated the philosophy of their society is rooted in human sacrifice. The fundamentals of their faith believe falsely that something must be given up before something can be gained.

Cannibal cultures seen in the zones indicated on the above map tended to be agriculturally based. The workers of the fields at the time as they do today—tend to plant seeds in the ground and hope that the gods bring them rain to nourish the seeds to healthy crop yields. They felt they needed assurances that crops would grow prosperously and developed mythologies which attempted to appease nature by viewing the crops as gifts from some mystical source which desired some kind of payment. Because of this they developed human sacrifice rituals and other types of blood gifts hoping that they would not starve with bad crops.

The correct way to view agricultural activity then and now is to see the work of planting seeds as productive and the science as stable. If you perform the work, you tend to yield the results. This is why under American capitalism farmers tend to thrive where other countries not as free tend to starve if given the same type of land, the same access to water, and the same general labor force. The cannibal cultures of the past which led to the major religions of the world started with an incorrect premise that pointed their entire societies in the wrong direction. The emphasis of their religions is on sacrifice instead of productivity.

In business this old irrational notion congers itself up in the bureaucrats against industry who still believe that something must be sacrificed if something is to be built—as if all things were created in a finite state and that something must be given up to have something new. Job creation is an act of invention—of making something that wasn’t there before like a painting, a sculpture, or a literary work. A goat doesn’t have to be sacrificed to create a job. The gods do not hand them out to those who have been naughty or nice—jobs are created by minds able to make them. However, for those who do not understand such things, they believe their role in the process is similar to those old cannibals of yesteryear. They will sabotage creativity at every opportunity and attempt to stop any productive enterprise with an ancient commitment to the notion of greed—that a job creator is trying to build something without giving something up. For any such person in an altruistic society is viewed as greedy if they wish to make something—profit off it—and prosper without some kind of sacrifice to the gods of the past. These definitions are left over from their ancestors who literally believed that death of something had to occur before life could prosper.

Christianity is riddled with this type of behavior. The very core aspect of the religion is that Christ died for our lives and that we were condemned of sin at birth. But because Christ gave his life—we are allowed to prosper as human beings and that we should participate in some kind of sacrifice to give thanks to the effort. This is just an old variant of human sacrifice as it was propelled across the European region shown on the map. To replace the sacrificial tendencies of the Pagans Roman Catholics in a desire to preserve their empire used the notion of Christ’s sacrifice as a way to pull belief into their desire for a pacifist kingdom united under the flag of Christianity. There are of course wonderful values in Christianity, but the essence of it is false, the ideal of sacrifice as being needed to be productive.

Work is done by individuals. Goodness is not a gift from out there somewhere in the universe, but within our own hearts. Goodness is made by the mind of man. And everything that comes from the mind of man is considered productive when it is applied to reality. Productivity is the act of planting a seed into the ground and watering it with labor. Productivity is creating a job that was not there before to fill a market need that also wasn’t there before a mind made a need imagined by someone’s mind.

Productivity is not the government regulator who hampers creativity in business to protect a turtle habitat, or the union steward who keeps workers from hitting their piece rate while nearing a labor contract. It is not a mindless bureaucrat that thinks productivity is compliance to some stupid rule that man came up with out of a silly notion rooted in sacrifice—sacrifice to Mother Earth, sacrifice to mother government, sacrifice to our fellow man—sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice–ancient beliefs that were flawed four thousand years ago and are still wrong today.

When something productive is attempted the old cannibals of our society come out in full attack—and this is something that will not stop until the mythologies that form their cultures changes. As long as terrorists are willing to blow themselves up to gain access to a bunch of virgins in another world, or sins are removed from behavior because Christ was killed for disrupting the political order of the Pharisees—there will be lots of opposition to real productivity. And starting businesses, creating jobs, and conducting anything productive will be a constant uphill battle riddled with anxiety. That anxiety is needless, but is a direct result of old cannibal cultures and their stupid belief that sacrifice trumps production. Clearly all those who think in such a way are wrong—they just don’t have the ability to understand what a detriment they are to the human race.

Ohio Rights Group: Exploiting children to legalize pot

Family Supports Medical Marijuana

How far would you go to ease your child’s pain?

Unless Ohio’s law changes, some families are considering relocating.  Family Supports Medical Marijuana

That is the tag line of the progressive organization Ohio Rights Group who is attempting to exploit children in the same way that government schools do in order to pass school levies. They want Ohio passage of laws to use medical marijuana for children as a gateway to overall pot legalization. As usual, isolated cases of children suffering are being exploited by the masses to achieve an ultimate corrosive goal, the ability to smoke pot in public—and it is disgusting. If you voted in the recent primaries in Ohio dear reader you likely saw some of the activity this group was pandering as they are attempting to put the issue on the November 2014 ballot. Here is what they are saying.

Friends of the Ohio Rights Group, do you have one day, or even 4 hours this year to help put  therapeutic cannabis and industrial hemp on the ballot in Ohio?  Wondering how to use up your vacation time at work?  On May 6, we will be executing a coordinated effort to collect a large amount of signatures.  Signature gatherers will be provided with training, materials, a polling location, and rules about petitioning at polling locations.  

Every single person who exits a polling place is guaranteed to be a registered voter in that county.  Teams are being organized now to concentrate on target locations with the goal of obtaining the required number of signatures in 44 of Ohio’s 88 counties by May 7, 2014.

Sign up to be a Polls for Patients hero today.  And please, reach out to your friends and family and encourage them to help as well.  Click on the link above and someone will contact you to let you know how you can help.  Share this link with others and ask them to do the same!

United We Win!!

Let me make my position quite clear. I am against drugs of all kinds. I am against alcohol, especially for intoxication purposes, I am against cigarettes, I am against Viagra, Rogaine, aspirin—I don’t like taking substances that alter my state of consciousness, or attempt to trick nature, or change my genetic makeup in any fashion. If something is in pain it is because something is broken and needs to be fixed. It is best not to numb one’s senses to pain—it is best to solve the problem to begin with. We live in an age where there are cures for cancer, although the medical industry does not accept them—and regenerative growth is also an option—again, the medical industry does not support the repair of people. The medical industry advocates the degradation of people so that they can profit off their misery—so they do not support cancer cures and generative growth—generally. This is why they support legalization of marijuana for patients in pain instead of real genetic fixes for the ailments.

The goal of all progressives is interdependence and mass collectivism and marijuana helps them reach critical mass. Marijuana numbs the mind of users and drives down in the mind of participants their individual ambition which helps considerably the progressive objectives in society. Marijuana and alcohol are all about turning off a mind and surrendering thought to outside chemical influences.   What make marijuana worse than alcohol are the lasting effects. The ingestion is not as violent as alcohol but it sticks around in the body a whole lot longer.   Alcohol consumption is a quick experience. The drunken objectives can be achieved quickly and the body dumps the waste just as fast through the digestive system. Marijuana is much slower in that it doesn’t get processed so much digestively, but through the respiration system and attacks the mind directly.

I have known a lot of people who smoked dope yet I never have even under coercive circumstances. I have heard all the claims that people can smoke dope occasionally and still have successful and productive lives. Well, not by my measure which many think is ridiculously too high. My measure is the one that counts since it is the pace setter for conversation as the target objective. Smoking pot before sex, or to ease away the stresses of a hard day, or just to feel the euphoria of a high is weak and participants will amount to very little in life. I can always tell a pot smoker even a casual one just by speaking to them—so nobody on earth can tell me it has no effect on the mind. Marijuana smoke destroys thought and numbs ambition. Pot legalization advocates can conjure up the falsehood in their minds that pot laws were created to protect the monopolization of competing businesses, but ultimately the stuff is illegal because there is a real threat in attacking the very soul of a productive society by dramatically lowering the GDP of a nation.

If you look at the donor lists of progressive organizations like Ohio Rights Group you will eventually find people like George Soros and his other wealthy friends who are ultimately looking to profit off the fall of America. Wealth redistribution of American assets to a global government led by the United Nations is their goal. Pot is being used to destroy the American workforce and the ambition that drives it. It is nearly impossible for a child to attend a public school or college and not have interaction with a pot culture of some kind and progressive groups are behind the effort. It is a military strategy against American life pure and simple. It has nothing to do with saving a few children from seizures. It’s about attacking American productivity by destroying the minds of its youth, and nothing else.

Play chess with an habitual marijuana user, or even play Xbox with them. Two drug induced players against each other may think that they are both good, but if they play against a person who does not engage in drug activity of any kind the match isn’t even close. Marijuana changes the thinking process of a human being for the worse—and that is a trade-off that is not worth any measure of pain relief. A body can be in terrible pain but if it has its mind intact—it is still superior to the pain-free body of a person intoxicated. There is nothing good about mental inebriation. There is nothing sexy about a girl so stoned or drunk that she doesn’t even know if she is wearing cloths any longer, there is nothing cool about being so drunk that a person can’t count or string together two sentences, and there is nothing cool about seeing everything in life through rainbow colors and unicorns induced from THC consumption. The reality under such conditions is a false one, and not one of any merit.]

Ohio Rights Group wants to bring to a conservative state more purple tendencies to fulfill a progressive strategy of conquest. They don’t really care of families move to drug induced Colorado or socialist driven Seattle. They want to spread progressive belief everywhere and the best way for them to do that is by getting people stoned so they are too stupid to think otherwise.   Like scum bag boys who want to have sex with a girl, but don’t want the challenge of winning her over traditionally, they seek to get her intoxicated so she’s easy. Progressives want Ohioans high on marijuana so that they are too stupid to vote other than the socialist collectivism they are advocating. And that is the beginning and end of their story. It certainly isn’t about helping people. It is about destroying them.

A Fox and Her Babies: Being cunning, free–and ALIVE!

I found it fascinating and ironic that a family of foxes made a home in the drain pipe at the end of my driveway. For as long as I have been alive I have loved the character of Zorro which means “fox” in Spanish. They are nocturnal creatures who are extremely difficult to catch. As a young man in Liberty Township I knew plenty of people who trapped foxes hoping to catch them for their pelts. I always hoped that the foxes would evade capture—like Zorro—my favorite defender of justice. Only a few times did I see them captured, but otherwise they were like mysteries of the night. I would see them occasionally like ghosts sneaking across the yard—cat like, but large like dogs with their big bushy tails flowing out like the cape of Zorro. As soon as your eyes focused on them, they were gone again leaving their presence to be in question—as if doubt could be placed on their existence. So it came with some shock that a fox came to my home to give birth to her pups. It is highly unusual to see a fox in the daylight but because the babies had no idea what night and day was yet, they were up at all hours blowing the cover of the normally nocturnal fox. Here is a video of their activity at the end of my driveway.

Zorro is a character created in 1919 by New York–based pulp writer Johnston McCulley. The character has been featured in numerous books, films, television series, and other media. Zorro is the secret identity of Don Diego de la Vega, a Californio nobleman and master living in Los Angeles during the era of Spanish rule.

The character has undergone changes through the years, but the typical image of him is a dashing black-clad masked outlaw who defends the people of the land against tyrannical officials and other villains. Not only is he too cunning and foxlike for the bumbling authorities to catch, but also delights in publicly humiliating them. That last part is a trait that I have personally carried with me most of my life. It is what a fox does and if I had to identify with an animal, it would be that of a fox.

That left a question in my mind as to why if that fox were so smart, why would she decide to have babies at the end of my driveway right next to a road that has frequent travelers just feet from their play area? A fox should be smarter than that. Her nest was quite well out in the open causing many people to drive by and slow down in disbelief wondering if they were really seeing what they thought they saw. I watched the fox and her cubs playing and nursing just feet from the crushing tires of the large cars going by and found it interesting that the little animals never jumped out under them even by accident. The mother was secure in her knowledge that her children would escape danger. She seemed unconcerned.

Even when I went out to film the fox and her litter she seemed unconcerned by me. I deliberately stayed away so that the little ones would not become complacent to my presence, because they needed to stay vigilant. Not all humans they encounter will respect them they way I do. Many will want to make a coat out of them. So it is important that the little fox cubs not let down their guard. But the mother had made her decision after very careful assessment and her pick of birthing location was no accident. The nature of a fox is always a planned escapade that has elusiveness in their prerogative.

In the morning several times the mother fox would sit next to my driveway as the sun came up and I would drive my loud motorcycle right by her and she would not move. She had determined by some unknown method that I was not a threat to her or her children—but how did she know? As I thought of her strategy she was actually quite clever in her endeavor to give birth in that particular location. The success rate of having babies in the drain pipe is that coyotes, cats, and other small carnivores won’t have easy pickings of her cubs while she’s away hunting food. Her dangers are minimized if only she could have assurance that the humans who can see her in plain site will respect her space. The cars that go by are much less of a concern to her dashing children than the natural predators of the nearby woods.

The more I watched her over the last few weeks the more respect I had for her. A few times I had to chase off gawkers who were being too intrusive of her space, and the Butler County Animal control people had to be talked off the wire a few times—thinking that they needed to take some kind of action. My wife told them that the little ones would be big enough to go to the woods on their own soon, so their services were not needed. A few other nosy people behaved similarly thinking that it was their job to remove the little creatures from human eyes—because foxes are known carnivores and do kill cats and small dogs. To them a small army of foxes growing up under my driveway was a threat to their lives in some way. At our home we have an outside cat that lingers in our garage but is out and about in the day and the cat and the fox do not pay each other much attention. In our backyard is a ground-hog that is a full-time resident and harasses our two dogs with his pudgy body wobbling across the yard when he sees them. The fox has shown no desire to bother any of these animals. They are all living happily on my property without fanfare.

They will soon be gone and it is unlikely that I will ever see anything like them again. The more I watched them, the more cunning I came to understand the mother fox to be. Like Zorro, she knew how to hide from her enemies in broad daylight in much the way Don Diego hid in society disguised from his foxlike justice seeking alter ego. The mother fox had made the ultimate strategic move to preserve the lives of her children from the natural predators of the wild—she found safety under my driveway knowing well enough that my family would not be a threat to hers. And she hedged her bet that she would gain enough human support to fight off the parasites of humankind as she insulated herself away from the threats of the woods—until her children were big enough to care for themselves. The cars were surely dangerous, but not as much so as snakes, and other carnivores looking to feed themselves on the young babies—so the fox placed herself between the dangers of two worlds to find that perfect balance of safety for her children.

It was a bold move by the mother, but I am happy to have assisted her—a fellow fox of outsmarting the very nature of life itself and mocking it with her bold presence. Her daylight presence was almost like giving the middle-finger to the nearby woods and all the animals there wishing to make an easy meal of her babies. She knew what she was doing and I’m glad she did. It was a sight and trust that I will not soon forget. From one fox to another…………………………..adios.

The Last Chance to Fire John Boehner: Two challengers lose their jobs

Two days ago I wrote about J.D. Winteregg’s termination from his teaching job at a Christian college due to his challenge of John Boehner—the current Speaker of the House in the 2014 primary. Boehner in interviews makes it appear that he is just a common man in uncommon circumstance that does not care for the glory of high political office. Yet his actions defy such unassuming posturing. John Boehner and the people who want something from him in the form of machine politics want to keep him in power and they will literally do anything to keep challengers from jeopardizing Boehner’s congressional seat.

The Daily Caller exclusively reported Monday April 28th that Boehner’s tea party primary challenger J.D. Winteregg was fired from his job as an adjunct professor at Ohio’s Cedarville University for running an anti-Boehner campaign ad accusing the speaker of “Electile Dysfunction.” Winteregg is challenging Boehner in the district’s May 6 Republican primary.

But Winteregg is not the first Boehner challenger to lose his employment while on the campaign trail.

Justin Coussoule, a West Point graduate and former army captain working as a purchasing manager for Cincinnati-based consumer products manufacturer Procter & Gamble in Ohio suffered a similar fate when he ran against Boehner as a Democrat in 2010. Coussoule fired from his job for taking on the veteran lawmaker.

“In Justin’s case he was faced with resignation or termination from Procter & Gamble. They were surprised that anyone would want to run against John Boehner because he had been, as they said, so good for their business,” Alliea Phipps, Coussoule’s 2010 campaign manager, told The DC.

A vice president of government relations at Procter & Gamble took Coussoule out for coffee after he first decided to run against Boehner, and pressured him not to do it.

Read more: http://dailycaller.com/2014/04/30/boehners-last-two-opponents-were-fired-from-their-jobs/#ixzz30TvKevn9

This kind of activity is not the role of business. If a business is truly good, they should not be concerned about injecting themselves into the political process. In the case of Winteregg, and Coussoule each coming from different party backgrounds, they had their livelihoods taken from them just because they challenged the political establishment. The message has been clear, either vote for the progressive machine representative of the Republican Party, or lose your ability to make a living—which runs counter to everything America is supposed to be.

Boehner has spent a lot of money on this primary campaign to continue holding his seat. He would not spend that money if there wasn’t a chance that Winteregg could oust him. All the political pundits predict Winteregg is not a threat and in the end, he probably isn’t—because of situations like what has been described here. In modern business, there is certainly peer pressure to back certain candidates because often those companies give money to certain politicians in hopes of buying off their regulatory tendencies. Business should not have to engage in such a thing—but they do. They will fight to protect their investments even to the extent of preventing candidates like Coussoule from participating in the election process as a rival.

For those who scream for democracy these terminations of political rivals is an unabashed threat to the will of the people. For people who understand that the natural discourse of democracy is to migrate into socialism and instead regard a Republic as the superior government, the attacks against Winteregg and Coussoule is even worse. The threat of losing a job is an attack of a challenger’s livelihood and the intent behind the action is to steer political support in the direction of institutional control—not the will of individual voters.

Years ago it was common practice for supervisors at companies participating in United Way campaigns to strong-arm their employees for weekly donations. At that time I worked at Cincinnati Milacron and every year I was paraded into the office of my supervisor and given a lecture with the expectation that the guilt would coax me into donating for the charity organization. Of course “The Mill” wanted the political relief of a 100% contribution from their employees to brag about within the business and political circles that it was concerned with—so the supervisors were expected to use peer pressure against the employees to get “voluntary contributions.”

It was understood that if an employee didn’t give a donation, that they would be listed by the supervisor as a “troubled employee.” Overtime opportunities would go to United Way contributors before they’d go to those who refused to give, and if there was a layoff, the first targets would be those who did not give to the United Way. There was never an intention during these campaigns to know the real charity desires of employees, the goal was to force through peer pressure compliance to the company goal.

The same peer pressure goes on over a massive scale when it comes to political contributions. The punishments are not layoffs or lack of overtime opportunities, but regulations that come their way if they fail to support a particular candidate—or take a political position that is contrary to the orthodox acceptance of the general business community. In the case of John Boehner’s district, there isn’t a potential Democrat who could even think of running in what is likely one of the most conservative bastions of a district in The United States. Boehner has so much power and is so entrenched in the Republican Party that he now has celebrity status and if a businessman wants to be considered for an important new contract, or wants relief from government regulation, they learn to give some of their money to the political machine in charge.

In case of the Winteregg, and Coussoule their employers took the extra step of actually terminating them for challenging the political establishment. The behavior is the same as the company who punishes a worker for not participating in United Way campaigns. The method of achieving consensus within the party is force, and manipulation. The genuine emotions of the electorate are not desired—only conformity to the established party and its members.

John Boehner is not Speaker of the House and the third most powerful person in the world because he is the best person for the job, but because he has the political high ground that can destroy the lives of any potential challengers to his grip on power. Boehner is the first person to say that he is not a power-hungry detriment to the human race—yet he is willing to fight with much more vigor to hold his seat than he ever did against Barack Obama’s takeover of healthcare, and the various budget crises occurring during his watch. Boehner is the top Republican because people who might otherwise challenge him were eliminated from contention. The “Party” doesn’t care who is destroyed in the process, so long as the system of politics that they control remains in power—and that is a lesson that Winteregg, and Coussoule share in common that transcends their individual politics.

In Winteregg’s case there is still time to correct the John Boehners of the world by voting for the young victim instead and firing the Speaker from his job for a change. That power is still in the hands of the voters which is the reason behind the intimidation. Voters are coerced to vote for Boehner, they are not trusted to make their own decisions. And the history behind Boehner goes further than these two names which is all the reason that changes should take place. If Boehner were truly the best man for the job—nobody would try to eliminate his competition. Instead, they have, and they have been successful—at least twice.

The Lakota Headhunters: Band fans turn against the school board

Like headhunters about to cook a captured enemy supporters of longtime Lakota West High School Band Director Greg Snyder showed up at a school board meeting demanding an explanation for his suspension. Their effort was tribal at best and displayed an uneasy byproduct of the ultra levy supporters of Lakota—creations of that same school board designed to pass higher taxes so to increase a revenue stream directly into the mouths of their teacher’s union. The natives turned against the school board when disciplinary necessity was demanded upon one of their own. Greg Snyder was suspended on April 16 and agreed to resign following an investigation that revealed he received unethical compensation for personal gain, and the band fans at Lakota wanted the issue ignored with the same kind of activism that is common among pro public education radicals—a collective display as though their unified input could change the reality of deceit for which Snyder was in trouble to begin with.

http://www.journal-news.com/news/news/lakota-community-reacts-to-band-directors-suspensi/nfkhN/

Those same tribal malcontents even took a page out of my book and started their own blog—announcing their actions ahead of time. Again, their belief indicates that they wish to alter reality with mass protest and activist support of their beloved teacher. Parents of this kind represent everything that is wrong with the public education system and in their own way government in general. In the Snyder case they are behaving like Washington lobbyists working K-Street for their small section of the political pie. At Lakota there are radicals for the band program, radicals for the art programs, radicals for the football program, radicals for virtually every extracurricular program the tax funded school offers—and they all expect special treatment—especially when impropriety is discovered.   Have a look at their site for yourself—it is quite revealing.

http://supportlakotabands.com/

What these radicals of public education never indicate is what is really behind their motive. In the case of these band supporters—as it is with most government school radicalism, they are driven by guilt and the peril to them is very real. Since they have squandered themselves in most cases and surrendered their children’s future to people like Greg Snyder hoping that musical futures are on the horizon for their offspring—the threat of that investment losing value for them becomes all too real when trouble is discovered. Instead of doing the work of teaching their children themselves, they pawn that task off to a Lakota teacher then expect magical results. For them when their children are invited to the Macy’s Parade as a representative of Lakota’s famed band by the highly respected Greg Snyder—their dreams of being good parents are fulfilled and they gush with pride because of the experience. For them such experiences are the culmination of years of sacrifice—of social climbing so that they could earn enough money to buy a home in an area like the Lakota school district and send their children to teachers like Snyder.

The reality of impropriety within that system is simply too great for them to understand, so they ignore the evidence to preserve their illusion. What they perceive to be good parenting is literally all rolled up into building up this grand illusion against reality—and when it comes crashing down, they are dumbfounded like the aforementioned headhunters gazing up at an airplane flying overhead and thinking that it is some kind of god. Their mentality is that of a primitive. They are creations of that same school board encouraged to activism so long as it serves the collective institutional aim of revenue enhancement. When that activism turns on the headhunters of Lakota all the school board members can do is nod in appeasement and smile with sympathy. The levy passed, and the radicalism of those same supporters had already done its job for the good of Lakota.

Too late the band supporters learned that their activism was not wanted or appreciated unless it directly served the needs of the collective whole. The system of Lakota does not care about them, their children, or Greg Snyder. It only cares for Snyder so long as he can take Lakota to the Macy’s Parade and other high-profile venues. Once his usefulness is complete, the collective system of Lakota will discard him and his supporters the way a wonderful meal might be appreciated upon eating it, but once the digestion has taken place it leaves the body uneventfully, and unceremoniously to be flushed away from our eyes and noses.

What often is lost in these cases are the children. The kids usually join these band groups to make their parents happy, to see them proudly watching from the stands during a football game. Kids just want the love of their parents—but often the parents mistakenly believe that love comes from collective experience instead of their direct input. Such mistakes feed the false importance of people like Greg Snyder who are used by the Lakota school board to generate public relations support for their revenue streams of taxation. The children are used by the parents to make their lives seem meaningful—to make all their decisions as adults justified. The school uses the children for the same purpose—but from the other end to achieve community consensus. Once those school days are complete the children enter their post education years empty husks perpetually looking for a way to fill a void in their lives that they can never quite identify. Their lives away from their parents are never quite satisfactory, and without people like Greg Snyder, they are often lost—and depressed because they never learned self-reliance. They were used as teenagers, and as young adults are empty and often directionless.

Headhunters particularly in the South Pacific cultures believed that by consuming the body of an enemy, that the spirit of that enemy would become incorporated in the body of the cannibal. To a large extent, even Native American cultures believed such things—which is why they had elaborate dances to pay tribute to the spirit of the animals they consumed for their sustenance. Like those primitive cultures which progressives have so much reverence for, the band supporters of Lakota believe that the spiritual leaders of the band have power to enrich their children with magical prosperities if only they attend their class. The school board was happy to popularize that myth so that the public would support school levies and give them money to throw at the cannibals of their teacher’s union. But in the end, the lives of the children are simply consumed by all the headhunters involved in public education, especially the ones who protested with cult like reverence the Lakota school board over the Greg Snyder case. The headhunters believe that the fates of their children are attached to a Lakota deity who can magically whisk their children away to New York to perform on Thanksgiving Day, and give them a future that they as parents cannot provide on their own. But in the end, they discover too late that all that Lakota could do for them was taking their money and use their children as sacrifices to the gods of speculative success.

Beating the IRS: The Pride of the Liberty Township Tea Party

imageOn April 15th, “Tax Day” I woke up with a special sense of pride experienced the night before. Behind the trees of my front yard, seen above, and across the golf course behind them, Jordon Sekulow flew in from Washington D.C. to personally thank the members of the Liberty Township Tea Party for their fight against the IRS. Sekulow is from the American Center for Law and Justice and is handling the civil case against the IRS on behalf of their unjust harassment against liberty groups—specifically the Liberty Township Tea Party. The LTTP had a meeting at The Elks Lodge, which I think is the best golf course in Cincinnati painting a picturesque evening of cold beer with fantastic views out the north windows silhouetting Jordon as he spoke to the large group of Tea Party patriots.

Without the Liberty Township Tea Party sticking up for themselves during the IRS case, it is likely that Louis Lerner would have never been forced to take the “fifth.” The story would have died quickly as it was planned. It was Justin Binik Thomas and The Liberty Township Tea Party who refused to go quietly into the night resulting in the congressional testimony that forced Lerner to implicate herself by default. The primary issue with Lerner is not that she took the “fifth” but that she provided testimony, then took her constitutional right trying to avoid cross-examination. That was a big no, no, and that mistake was forced in essence by the American Center for Law and Justice in its case against the IRS who was able to take the Liberty Township Tea Party case because the issue was pressed. The ACLJ needs clients otherwise they cannot conduct a case—and the Liberty Township Tea Party gave it to them—and the whole battle took place essentially in my front yard. And that makes me very proud.

Without the LTTP this article from Breitbart.com would have never been written: Former IRS official Louis Lerner and her colleagues at the tax agency were under a tremendous amount of pressure from President Obama and other Democrats to scrutinize a Tea Party applicant for public disclosure, despite rules protecting the privacy of unapproved applications, according to a staff report from the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee.

For example, in emails regarding how the Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision could imperil the Democrats’ majority in the Senate, Lerner wrote that she hoped the Federal Election Commission would “save the day,” apparently by curtailing political speech.

In another email referencing a news article about the businessmen and benefactors Charles and David Koch, Lerner suggested the IRS should begin a “project” to rein in political speech but to craft it in such a way as to avoid the appearance of focusing on political activity.

“We do need a c4 project next year,” Lerner wrote. While she initially said, “my object is not to look for political activity,” later in the exchange she acknowledged that it will examine political activity. “We need to be cautious so it isn’t a per se political project.  More a c4 project that will look at levels of lobbying and pol. Activity along with exempt activity.”

Lerner is the only IRS staffer who refused to testify before Congress, so the report relies solely on information garnered from “e-mails, documents, and other testimony about her cracking down on tax exempt organizations that exercise their rights to free political speech,” the Republican staff on the Oversight Committee says.

One e-mail thread turned to the possibility of whether a Tea Party applicant would challenge the IRS ruling in court. Lerner said that Tea Party groups would litigate because they are “itching for a Constitutional challenge.”

The emails show concern from Lerner about the Citizens United case decision hurting Democrats in the upcoming Senate elections. One document shows Lerner saying the Supreme Court gave the issue to the IRS “to fix the problem.”

She said, “The Supreme Court dealt a huge blow, overturning a 100-year old precedent that basically corporations couldn’t give directly to political campaigns. And everyone is up in arms because they don’t like it. The Federal Election Commission can’t do anything about it. They want the IRS to fix the problem.”


After a senior advisor emailed her about the political danger Democrats could be placed in, she replied in an e-mail, “Perhaps the FEC will save the day.”

The Oversight Committee points out that Lerner mishandled 6103 taxpayer information by dealing with such data from her personal e-mail account. Lerner, however, told Congress under oath in Novmber of 2013, “I have not violated any IRS rules or regulations.” In a November 2013 letter from Daniel Werfel, Werfel writes, “We do not permit IRS officials to send taxpayer information to their personal email addresses.” Werfel stresses that this is the case even if information is redacted.

Ultimately, the Oversight report says, Lerner personally placed all Tea Party applicants through a “multi-tier review.” An IRS employee testified that Lerner “sent [him an] e-mail saying that when these cases need to go through multi-tier review and they will eventually have to go to [Judy Kindell, Lerner’s senior technical advisor] and the Chief Counsel’s office.” A D.C. IRS employee said this level of scrutiny had no precedent.

The head of the IRS office in Cincinnati disputes Lerner’s claim–and President Obama’s Fox News interview with Bill O’Reilly–that the scrutiny on Tea Party cases was only a local issue, saying, “[Y]es, there were mistakes made by folks in Cincinnati as well [as] D.C. but the D.C. office is the one who delayed the processing of the cases.”

All of that investigation started with the same Tea Party group that met at The Elks Golf Course on April 14th, 2014. If not for them, the IRS case would have ended as quickly as it started, and Louis Lerner would still hold her position as an activist for the Obama administration at the front of the powerful government agency the IRS. The evidence shown above that Louis Lerner was corrupt and everything that Tea Party groups feared about their government is extraordinarily clear one year after the story initially broke. Because of the Liberty Township Tea Party, a new day in America is emerging, one where people aren’t so terrified of the IRS and the government—where more people than ever are coming out from hiding and telling their stories of harassment and paperwork terrorism issued against them by the federal government. As usual, such things begin with just a few brave souls who help usher in movements that change the direction of society in general. And for me, I will always live with the pride of knowing that one of the biggest battles in our lifetimes took place in my front and back yard—with my friends and neighbors in a prideful community called Liberty Township who refused to back down when villains presented themselves with overwhelming force, and ever-present determination to impose themselves as the latest dictators in a long chain of human failure. In Liberty Township, those dictators were turned away, and slapped down in embarrassment.
