Purge: America

People say America is truly the greatest nation on earth.  When I look at our history, I am not inclined to say so.  According to sources, there are 323.1 billion people that live in the United States.  That is more than Russia and more than the United Kingdom.  From this number, 32 million adults cannot read.  About 21 percent of adults read below a 5^th grade level and around 19 percent of high school graduates cannot read at all, yet people say we are truly the greatest nation on earth.

When we talk about purge, what are we really talking about?  Let’s look what purge is defined as.  It can be used as a noun to mean an abrupt or violent removal of a group of people from an organization or place.  There are many things that can be considered as purging.

I see commercials daily about giving money to help the poor in other countries, yet we have poor people in America who are suffering.  Let’s look at jobs.  Jobs are moved from the United States to other countries for the sake of paying a lower wage and increase in price in the interest of making more money.  The government gives tax cuts for companies moving their production in different countries.  These companies pay those citizens in other countries pennies on the dollar.  Meanwhile, American citizens are living hand in mouth due to lack of jobs, lack of opportunities, and lack adequate wages.  Most people will contribute funds around the world before helping a fellow American.  All contributed fund are tax deductible which means Americans can support other American causes to help each other.  My mother has this saying that goes “take care of home first.”  How are Americans supposed to feel?  How can this be viewed as a purge?  As a result of companies moving their businesses out of the country, it decreases the amount of Americans working to provide for their families.  This can also cause retaliation or uproar.  The effect of this can lead to increased population in jail as well as increased population among the homeless.  Walking pneumonia and disease can be adverse effects among the homeless which can cause a slow and painful death.  So many Americans look down on the homeless, but homeless people are kinder and more caring than other Americans who are well off.

Trump lifts the ban on big game trophy and now he puts the ban back on.  When the ban was lifted there were a lot of Americans calling him a great president.  This means we have people in America that want to go to other countries to kill a defenseless animal for the sake of having their head on a trophy.  This mean we have people in America that want to go to great lengths to have other animals killed for their own greed and pleasure.  There are many species of animals that are near extinction.  Currently, there are only three White Rhinos left in the world.  Out of a radius of 3,969 miles of earth, only three White Rhinos are left.  This radius is larger than both the moon and Mars.  The West African Black Rhinos are EXTINCT thanks to mankind.  As we go back in time to 1933, King Kong was brought to America for the interest of making money for man and then killed by man because he had gotten loose.  Destruction is what mankind is about and now it resorted to the destruction of God’s precious animals.  Man choose to call this sport when it is should be called what it is… execution.  These animals are NOT property, but living, breathing organisms.  It reminds me of slavery when others bought another living, breathing human and called him or her “their property.”  How can this be viewed as purging?  Americans taking innocent lives for the interest of money and power.  Man always wants to show their power, but never want to resort to humbleness.  A Godly man is a humble man.  It is very interesting how many people say they are Christians, yet can kill an animal to use as a trophy or prize.  Since a lot of people want to say they are a Christian, look at their lives and see if they are living the life of a Disciple of Christ.

The police has free reign of abusing their power.  Most police officers would kill an unarmed person and claimed they were fearful of their life.  Police officers have on a bullet-proof vest and yet afraid of their life if someone has a knife of state statue.  The jury acquits the officer which will allow other officers to do the same because they believe they will have the same fate.  Now, there is a slogan going around saying “Blue lives matter.”  I did not know we had blue people.  Not all police uniforms blue.  All lives should matter.  How can this be viewed as purging?  The paragraph speaks for itself.

There are many instances that purging can happen. I believe what others don’t understand are the cause and effects of their decisions.  The cause of moving production to other countries affects the well-being of most Americans who try to provide for their families.  The cause of senseless killing of wild animals for the sake of a trophy affects the lives of the animal’s offspring and extinction.  The cause of police abusing their power and killing unarmed citizens while getting away with it affects the trustworthiness of police officers and possible retaliation. I can bet you most of the people committing these acts call themselves Christians.  Do you honestly believe a Christian would behave the way those in the above paragraphs are behaving?

Trump Cost American Lives

Let’s look at the key players. Chad is a country that borders Niger and is 53.1 percent Muslim with Catholics being the second most religious group.

Niger is a country the borders Chad and Mali and 80-94 percent of the population is Muslim.

Mali is a country that borders Niger and is 98 percent Muslim.

The situation is calm, unlike most other situations as the United States elite military personnel teams up with the Nigerian military, along with Chad, to help combat Islamic extremist in Mali.  There are more African countries joining the Coalition to combat Muslim extremist.  And now… the trouble begins.

Trump puts a travel ban on Chad, a Muslim country.  Really!  I guess Trump forgot we are getting help from Chad and other Muslim countries in the region against Mali.  There are American citizens who are from Chad as well as other countries that are helping the United States military in the region.  It astonishes me that the Census Bureau defines white people as having origins in any of the original peoples of Europe, the Middle East, or North Africa.  This mean people from Libya are considered white even though they are African.  This also mean people from Israel are considered white even though they are from the Middle East.  To go further, Iraqis and Iranian people are considered white by the Census Bureau even though they are considered Middle Eastern countries.  Also, this would mean Iraq would be considered white as Iraq is located in the Middle East  Funny how society say who is considered white and who are not.  As I looked upon the list of banned countries, I see people who are considered black, yellow, or brown are on the list and I meant no disrespect on that statement.  There are not any white Muslim countries listed on the banned countries such as Kosovo or Albania.  If this is really the true situation then no country should be on the travel ban because every country on earth is not one hundred percent Muslim.  Even Iraq has a percentage of Christian people within their country.

Trump wants the help and the backing of Chad, but don’t want any of its citizens visiting America because of paper issue(s).  Wrap this around your head for a moment.  You want the backing of a country to help protect your troops, but you put a ban on the same country that is supporting and helping you.  Do you believe they will continue to help you or do you believe they would pull out or worse?  This is why I believe Trump cost American lives.  The lives of the Americans could have been saved if he did not put the ban on Chad.  As a former military service member, I feel sorry for the families affected by the actions of someone who decides to ban its citizens from coming to America.  I feel hurt and sadden by the fact that the lives could have been saved.  They say we have freedom in this country.  Look around you.  Do we really have freedom in this country?

The Reason Why…

The reason why people get bullied is because they are good at what they do.  Don’t give the bullies the power over you…

Really? Not again!!!

There are a lot of people always say America is the best country ever. People say there’s no racism. People say America is just for everyone. No one wants to talk about racism or how it affects us as “Americans.” No one understands what it is like to be of a darker pigmentation in America. The constitution states ALL men, not some men, but ALL men are created “equal.”  Is that true in the eyes of the law? Even the Governor of Minnesota said this was race motivated. My take… this police officer is not going to do any time for this act.

I read were a police officer in New York was convicted by his peers (the jury), but the judge made the sentence where the police officer did not serve any jail time. He only receive house arrest and probation. The person that officer had killed cannot tell his side of the story. That person cannot defend himself in a court of law. Police officers have bullet-proof vests and yet they are afraid of their life of someone who does not have a weapon. Even so, the military don’t wear bullet-proof vest and we are deployed in some of the most dangerous areas known to man. I would love to see a police officer deployed in a “hot zone” where he or she cannot wear a bullet-proof vest. I bet they will shot everyone in sight.

Incidents like this were known in the southern states, and now they are being done by police officers in the northern states. Videos that show the truth, yet not admissible in court, or the police get the videos first before it can be released. If the police officer did nothing wrong, then why are they so much in a rush to obtain the video before it stream live?

Sooner or later, America will pay for their sins and those that had gotten away with so much will have to be judged by God Himself, one day. I would love to be a fly on the wall because no matter what excuse a person gives of taking a life that is not just, would it be the correct answer?

The Death Sentence.

I had a thought that entered my mind as I was reading a yahoo news post just a few minutes ago about Delta Airlines. Delta Airlines states they will not allow hunting trophies (animals that are killed in other countries by humans) on their aircrafts. I think this is almost the best thing since sliced bread. Why?

Think of the mind of a murderer. Someone in the state that has the death penalty commits murder and is arrested for that murder. That person would likely give up certain information because he/she would not want to receive the death penalty. But why not? They had killed someone, thus according to that specific state they should die as well. Most of the deaths by jury are done by the electrical chair or by lethal injection. These two forms of the death penalty are supposed to be approved and more “humane.” However, the murderer’s victim(s) could had suffered a wound in the lung, a busted heart, shattering of the spinal cord, or other things that may cause extreme pain. Yet, the murderer will try to negotiate life in prison instead of the death penalty.

An animal who is hunted for their tusks and fur does not deserve to die either. They live on instinct where as we know the difference between right and wrong, yet us humans hurt down and destroy the life of an animal. Most animals don’t even have a chance, such as a deer, moose, and other defenseless animals for the purpose of having their heads on the walls of those that murdered them. I would be willing to bet that if such murderers would be caught and tried for these crimes, they would negotiate not to be put to death, which is a more humane way to die than to feel hot lead piercing through your organs as you struggle to breath or become scared of what may happen next.

Let me go on record to say I am not a believer of the death penalty. One of the ten commandments are “Thous shalt not kill” (Exodus 20:13). I know some may say that we kill cows and some other animals for food. Technically, all animals were forbidden to be eaten until after the flood. After the flood, the animals are revealed in Leviticus 11 what are considered clean and unclean. Again, this is considered as food, not as trophies.

Man

Another prime example of how destructive man is. When I say man, I am speaking of all mankind which does include women.

A Minnesota dentist (Palmer) traveled all the way to Africa to kill a lion (Cecil). Little did he know, this 13 year old lion is special to the region and has a GPS on him. This is his excuse…

Palmer issued a statement that reads: “I hired several professional guides, and they secured all proper permits. To my knowledge, everything about this trip was legal and properly handled and conducted. I had no idea that the lion I took was a known, local favorite, was collared and part of a study until the end of the hunt. I relied on the expertise of my local professional guides to ensure a legal hunt.”

So, if someone was to go to his neighborhood and shoot a person because they heard that person was bad and they have sources that would confirm that, would that be justifiable to take a life and have a trophy of the deceased?

Sure, you can say there is a difference between an animal and humans, but I don’t think so. An animal protect its family just like a human would. An animal can learn words just like a human can learn words. An animal bleed just like a human. An animal has feelings of sorrow, hurt, and fear just like a human. An animal desires to be in good hands and needs love just like a human. Funny! Animals and humans are the same in many aspects. Even today, people are being hunted like animals. So you tell me?

Man has messed up this earth in so many ways. Man believes their every excuse is valid for their actions against another or against an animal. Man has marked human beings and animals for death. Man is his/her own worse enemy and yet when we kill, we want to avoid the death penalty ourselves. Isn’t that just like human nature. We don’t want to die, yet we can kill animals and each other without a care in the world…until we are caught.

Just In August 9, 2014

Police…. are they on a killing spree of blacks and other minorities, including women?  In Missouri, Michael Brown, a black teen, was fatally shot while his hands were visible and in the the air.  Michael Brown was UNARMED.  Michael Brown was not shot once, not even twice, or three times, but ten times.  Really???

Police carries M-16 and have dogs.  Wow, does this reminds me of the 50’s where police put the dogs on black people?  This reminds me of how the law is for whites, but not for blacks.  I perfect example would be the Black Panthers.  They exercise their right to bear arms, a right under the constitution, for protecting their homes, yet they had gotten killed, or in jail due to the same laws that grant them rights to have a weapon.  I have read were the KKK are trying to recruit members by putting candy in bags.  Really??

People say this country is getting better racially.  Is it?  Home of the free.  Is it?  Police wonder why they are not liked in urban areas…can you say genocide?

I bet the police officer will get off for shooting another child that will not have a future, his hands up, and unarmed.  After all, they always get off don’t they?  This embarrassing history of America, yet millions of people desire to come here… Why?
