Indians May be the Greatest American Heroes

Posted on March 20, 2007 by Guardian

Leon Shenandoah, chief of Onondaga Nation, and Tadodaho (“Firekeeper”) of the Haudenosaunee, or Six Nations Confederacy [or “Iroquois”], whose symbol is The Tree of Peace, passed over into spirit Monday July 22, 1996, at 7:20 a.m. EST, at age 81. In his peoples’ culture, Leon was both president and pope, but more the latter.

This gentle, soft spoken, humble holy man was principal chief of a surviving sovereign nation of indigenous people. And spiritual elder of one of the western hemisphere’s oldest cultures. And Firekeeper of the Grand Council of the eldest democracy in North America, founded in ancient times by the Peacemaker—a virgin-born messenger from the Creator.

Leon served his people as Tadodaho for nearly 30 years, remaining true to the spiritual nature of his office. The first Tadodaho was raised up by the Peacemaker many centuries ago.

Three police officers surrendered Monday to face charges

Posted on March 19, 2007 by Guardian

By PAT MILTON, Associated Press Writers

NEW YORK – Three police officers surrendered Monday to face charges in the shooting that killed a groom on his wedding day.

The policemen, accused of firing most of the 50 shots at three young men in a car outside a nightclub, were being fingerprinted and processed Monday morning before their arraignment.

Michael Oliver, who fired 31 times, and Gescard Isnora, who fired 11 bullets, face felony manslaughter charges, according to a person close to the investigation, who spoke with The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the results were secret. Marc Cooper, who fired four shots, faces a misdemeanor endangerment charge, the person said.

Grand jurors declined to indict on the more serious counts of second-degree murder, and attempted murder, or the lesser charge of criminally negligent homicide. Two other officers involved in the shooting were not indicted.

“We are a long way from a conviction,” said defense attorney Philip Karasyk, who represents Isnora.

Prosecutors have declined to discuss the grand jury’s work until the findings are officially released.

The Nov. 25 shooting killed Sean Bell and severely injured two of his bachelor party guests.

Bomb Making Materials, or False Charges?

Posted on March 18, 2007 by Guardian

Dear Administrator:

Hi, I have suffered attacks that I believe may have been perpetrated by the FBI, police or other government agency. At least the police had been attacking me in one form or another since I was 15. Also attacks with lrad put me in the hospital I believe this because the level of attacks were to advanced Including the psychotronic attacks. Also attacks with lrad or a similar loud attack method with the same sound as Lrad, called the attack mode or an aversion tone. After a night of attack(1-1-2001) from after midnight till the morning, and peeing brown I went to the hospital. With a false diagnosis of paranoid schizophrenia they attacked me with an attempt to have me commit suicide or to appear unstable and get an extended stay. As long as they had me there I couldn’t escape and they could threaten and torcher at will. When I got out in twelve days my phone and Internet services had been sabotaged. AOL or “America on Line” claimed something like a thousand messages had been sent in less than 5 minutes and this automatically closed the account. And I had no telephone I believe they said someone had closed the account thinking I was going to another company, and it would take so many days to be reconnected. Suffering from ,”Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome”. I also believe the battery in my car was dead, leaving me isolated for even another month. With no way to cry out for help.

We have to talk. The attacks went on for years before and after these particular events, but this is where they went in for the kill. They were also saying police had found bomb making materials at my house. While I was in there. I asked,” who said I had bomb making materials”, but they said they didn’t know , and asked me,” wasn’t I afraid that I would be arrested if I got discharged”, telling me I could stay longer and couldn’t be arrested if I stayed.

Sincerely yours,

Pete

A judges’ opinion is never right.

Posted on March 16, 2007 by Guardian

A judges’ opinion is never right.
But a judges’ opinion does have might.
Substantiated statements have height.
But only applicable facts are purely right.

A judges’ sentence has plenty of fright.
But disproportionate punishment is never right.
Only restitution is the light.
But prophylaxis is sometimes a necessary bite.

A judges’ opinion is never right.
But a judges’ opinion does have might.
Substantiated statements have height.
But only applicable facts are purely right.

A judges’ crime is the night.
When loss and injury is the sight
To follow false law is the blight.
State revenge is just not right.

A judges’ opinion is never right.
But a judges’ opinion does have might.
Substantiated statements have height.
But only applicable facts are purely right.

For a judge to pervert a constitutional right
Is to diminish freedom without a fight.
True is a greater number of right.
Not just for all of the bright.

A judges’ opinion is never right.
But a judges’ opinion does have might.
Substantiated statements have height.
But only applicable facts are purely right.

Left or right is not for the bright.
The only true freedom is to follow the light.
War is not the state right.
Patriots seem against the state with all their might.

A judges’ opinion is never right.
But a judges’ opinion does have might.
Substantiated statements have height.
But only applicable facts are purely right.

Recognition of Woman who Saved 2,500 Jews

Posted on March 14, 2007 by Guardian

Sendler is consitered a Utopian hero because she risked her life so that others could have and enjoy life. Utopian heroes are those that further life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, that advance human rights significantly, or that further the just recognition of the necessities of human life as law.

Poland honors woman who saved 2,500 Jews By RYAN LUCAS, Associated Press Writer

WARSAW, Poland – A 97-year-old woman credited with saving 2,500 Jewish children during the Holocaust was honored by parliament Wednesday at a ceremony during which Poland’s president said she deserves the Nobel Peace Prize.

Sendler was cited for organizing the “rescue of the most defenseless victims of the Nazi ideology — the Jewish children.”

Sendler led about 20 helpers who smuggled Jewish children out of the Warsaw Ghetto to safety between 1940 and 1943, placing them in Polish families, convents or orphanages.

The Right to Life

Posted on March 11, 2007 by Guardian

The theory of this site is that people have the right to life and everything necessary for life. The corollary is that the only rights of a state are to protect the rights of the individual. This site asks for others to give examples where this is not true. Until this theory is disproven by example, this theory is also a principle we encourage others to follow and espouse.

Some theory is fact – like the Pythagorean theorem. There are hundreds of proofs, including simple algebraic proofs that prove that this theorem is valid. It would be more correct to call it the Pythagorean equation rather than the Pythagorean theorem. A theorem actually asks others to find an example where it is not true.

A theorem is true until proven otherwise. An opinion, on the other hand, is not necessarily a theorem, principle, fact or proper conclusion. An opinion is religious in that only the person holding the opinion believes it. An opinion isn’t worth much.

There are two current ‘right to life’ arguments that center around this theory. One – the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness – pits the right to life of the individual against the right (of lack of rights) of the state. The other – the right to life for an unborn child – pits the right of the adult individual against the right of the unborn. The Republicans support the right of the state and the zygote over the rights of the individual.

The Democrats support the rights of the individual over the rights of the zygote and state. The Republicans choose NOT to take the side of the individual in either case. That’s an interesting synopsis so let it be repeated. The Republicans do NOT support individual rights in either argument.

The caveat here is the zygote. Is the zygote an individual human life? It does have the potential. It is my opinion that it is not a human life until it has a brain and experiences to recall. Until then, it is just the potential life and not equal to adult human life.

The American government does not have the right to life

Posted on March 10, 2007 by Guardian

FACT: We have the right to life and all things necessary for life.
PROOF: Without life there would be no human awareness of any other superceding right(s) hence no other rights. By default, the senior right is the right to life.

FACT: The American government does not have the right to life.
PROOF: We are given the right to have a constitutional convention to dissolve our current government.

Fact:
Article V.
The Congress, whenever two thirds of both Houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose Amendments to this Constitution, or, on the Application of the Legislatures of two thirds of the several States, shall call a Convention for proposing Amendments, which, in either Case, shall be valid to all Intents and Purposes, as part of this Constitution, when ratified by the Legislatures of three fourths of the several States, or by Conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or the other Mode of Ratification may be proposed by the Congress; Provided that no Amendment which may be made prior to the Year One thousand eight hundred and eight shall in any Manner affect the first and fourth Clauses in the Ninth Section of the first Article; and that no State, without its Consent, shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senate.

THEORY:
A necessary prerequisite for democracy is to establish that the rights of individuals are senior to government.

COROLARY:
If the state rights are greater than individual rights, then the state has the right by force to squelch individuals by intimidation and suppression and thus quench the right of democratic government.

COROLARY:
If the state rights are senior to individual rights, people exist primarily for the benefit of the state and/or for the people that control the state.

COROLARY:
If the state rights are senior to individual rights, the result is fascism, dictatorship, monarchy, oligarchy or communism.

A good country is any country where the goal of government is to allow life to exist as it would in a world without criminals, invasions, war, and government. I would like a government with true justice so good that people would never worry about being ripped off by others. Above and beyond that goal, it would be a plus if that government shielded the population from natural disasters and disease. It would also be nice if government shielded us from economic disasters.

The main thing is that any country that I would endorse would have as the prime goal to allow life to exist as it would in a world without criminals, invasions, war, and government. In other words, government isn’t the end, but the beginning. Government serves and protects the people in a way that is real and not just a slogan.

The government of America that existed from 1620 to 1860 was great except for the suppressive treatment of blacks, indians and women. Now everybody is suppressed equally by a government with negative intelligence.

The American government from 1865 to around 1913 was fair.

The American government during the Eisenhower, JFK, Reagan and Clinton years was the best of post WWII governments.

God, Vaporize them for they Know what they do.

Posted on March 9, 2007 by Guardian

When Christ was nailed to the cross he said “Pater dimitte illis non enim sciunt quid faciunt.” This translates to: “Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.” The pronoun “them” likely refers to all that contributed to the crucifixion of Jesus, inclusive of the judges and government.

If someone has an allergic reaction to the food you gave him, you should be forgiven if you didn’t know he had the allergy.  However, you should not be forgiven if you gave him food that you knew was going to cause him an allergic reaction. If a person has caused another or others loss or injury, it would be plausible to assume that he could be forgiven because he didn’t know what he was doing.  A plausible extrapolation of the statement made by Christ whild being nailed to the cross is that God is free to punish those that knowingly cause another loss or injury.

What if a judge condemned a man to jail when he knew the evidence against him could have been a fabrication, or falsified, or exaggerated? Would this imply that God should punish the judge because he knew what he did? Continue reading →

Amazing Grace

Posted on March 3, 2007 by Guardian

John Newton (1725–1807) wrote Amazing Grace to celebrate his conversion from being a supporter of slave trade. John was on board a slave ship on May 10, 1748, returning home during a storm, when he experienced a “great deliverance.” In his journal, he wrote that the ship was in grave danger of sinking. He exclaimed “Lord, have mercy upon us!” He was converted, though he continued in the business of slave trading. Many years later, he left the slave trade, eventually became a minister in the United Kingdom, and spoke out against it.

A typical slave ship would leave port with 600 slaves. They were kept in irons and horrible conditions for the entire voyage. By the time the ship arrived, only 200 slaves would be alive, the rest having died of dysentery and other disease contracted on the ship. Out of these wretched and hellish, conditions a beautiful song was born.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazing_Grace

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.
‘Twas Grace that taught my heart to fear,
And Grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that Grace appear,
The hour I first believed!
Through many dangers, toils and snares,
We have already come;
‘Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,
And Grace will lead me home. (Lead me home!)
The Lord hast promised good to me,
His word my hope secures!
He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures.
Yea, when this heart and flesh shall fail
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess within the veil
A life of joy and peace.
The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, who called me here below,
Will be for ever mine.
