Just thinking to myself about physical fitness,\. I used to have a six pack but traded it for a keg.In reality I didn't think I would ever have Dunlop Disease.  You know where your belly dunloped over. I used to be able to run twenty or thirty miles a day. Now its about twenty steps. As my age meter went up my fitness meter went down. Now one is running on empty and the other is sputtering along.

I left the church I grew up in, not because I didn't take any of the scriptures at heart but because the church didn't.  a old saying I remember well "Children learn from both your words and your actions." I took the words to heart and found the actions far from what they preached.

Fear and hatred are things all too many teach the children today. Most of the isims are taught before a child turns thirteen. Some of the worst are Nationalism, Racism, Sexism and so on and on and on. We have a agenda then to teach every young person  not to hate, fear and give up in despair. We have to help them earn that their teachers were wrong because they to were raised in a climate of fear,  and learned the wrong lessons. Not because they were bad but because that is what the people running the various nations desired to be taught. We now have to reteach and rebuild not with fear and hatred but with cooperation. We need a new pledge of allegiance that includes all of us.   I pledge allegiance to nonviolence, to helping others to become the best they can, to learning to live and work in harmony, and above all to helping make my community,my state, my nation and my world better for me being part of it. We have to become examples of what we profess to believe or our lessons will not take root.

Two of the worst isms are in full display in the waring of otherwise sane and honorable people on others today. Proponents of Nationalism, Racism, Buddhism, Judaism and  so on are killing each other in various cobflicts around the world and the only ones gaining from this stoked hatred are the banksters.It's a old and well learned trick of those in control. Turn those who suffer from our policies against each other by blaming whatever consequences they are suffering on the different other. Keep them poor and keep them hating and we can sell all the weapons, all the war machines and so on over and over. After all a billion dollar aircraft here, a million dollar tank there, and pretty soon because the banksters are financing both sides, it amounts to some real money.

I remember something one of the people the banksters and fear mongers killed because he taught love said.  Ye shall do everything I have done and more". Well that potential still exists, if we would just pick it up and run with it.

Thoughts July 27th. 2014

I was thinking of the underfunded and misconceived VA. Amerikkka has never treated it's veterans with anything but contempt. How many know that Mr. Washington and Mr. Hamilton used their official positions to lay claim to all of the land on the frontier. Land promised to and settled by the veterans of our war for independence. Not just that but they began treating the poorer people including those veterans like the King had his colonies. So they rose up in what is called the Shay's Rebellion and the Whiskey rebellion and made demands on the government including title to the land they had cleared and built homes on. Mr. Washington himself led the troops to pit down the Whiskey Rebellion, which instead spread from Western NY and PA into Western VA. Only then did the government pass the Bill of Rights and give title to the land those Veterans had claimed as promised to them. Mr. Hamilton also bought up most of the script used to pay those troops which was almost worthless. then cashed it in at full value.
that means a government by and for the rich and the hell with everyone else has been the norm since the Constitution which did away with government by the people under the articles of confederation. Only the landowners and the trades people who owned their own tools had any rights under the new Constitution of the United States of America. Nothing has changed since 1779. Even justification for war. Look what happened when forty four forty or fight was a presidential campaign theme. We invaded Canada and got our ass handed to us by the British troops. that little excursion into trying to steal others land and resources was called the war of 1812. So instead we decided everything West of the Appalachian Mountains though it belonged mostly to the Native American Tribes was fair game including the areas settled by and part of Mexico. In every case promises were made to the people who fought our battles but never honored. Just like the Bill of Rights only applied to those with money. We need to sit down and write our own constitution, but not allow any corporate whores and so called upper class to have anything to do with it. That's what the RICH did to bring about our current constitution. Which is why they had to do it in secret. They created a republic which was nothing more then a continuation of the same government for the rich they had overthrown.

I have been a Peacemaker since 1979. the Elders who named me that said since I had been a warrior for 20 Years it was time I became a voice for peace. My duties include speaking out for the poor, the voiceless, the wronged and the one's who are used for others gain. I am to speak out against violence everywhere. I am to stand between armies and say "No to WAR." I am to speak out against injustice. Above all I am to speak for the poor, the children and the people who have nobody to speak in their behalf. I am to feed the poor, condemn those who use religion to enrich self and teach cooperation as the way to the greatest good.

This is a duty among former Native American warriors. However today I ask everyone to become a Peacemaker. I ask all of you to speak out on behalf not only of humanity but all Mother Earths CHILDREN. In other words the residence of this planet such as animals, trees, birds, fish, the creeping one's the crawling one's and the invisible life forms.

WILL YOU JOIN IN BECOMING PEACEMAKERS?

Thoughts July 23rd. 2014

Today I am thinking of the much maligned and badly used Constitution. It's Preamble is "

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America". That is it's stated purpose. Are we fallowing it today or are we using the words that follow to make that purpose serve our own self interest.

It's interesting that Congress has decided to try and do away with the Post Office and has cut back on it's duties to establish and maintain post roads. It is also funny how the Rethuglicans rile against any tax and against the National Debt except on the working poor. the following is part of the same Constitution.

"Section 8. The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;

To borrow Money on the credit of the United States;

To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes;

To establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization, and uniform Laws on the subject of Bankruptcies throughout the United States;

To coin Money, regulate the Value thereof, and of foreign Coin, and fix the Standard of Weights and Measures;

To provide for the Punishment of counterfeiting the Securities and current Coin of the United States;

To establish Post Offices and post Roads;

To promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, by securing for limited Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their respective Writings and Discoveries;

To constitute Tribunals inferior to the supreme Court;

To define and punish Piracies and Felonies committed on the high Seas, and Offences against the Law of Nations;

To declare War, grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning Captures on Land and Water;

To raise and support Armies, but no Appropriation of Money to that Use shall be for a longer Term than two Years;

To provide and maintain a Navy;

To make Rules for the Government and Regulation of the land and naval Forces;

To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions;

To provide for organizing, arming, and disciplining, the Militia, and for governing such Part of them as may be employed in the Service of the United States, reserving to the States respectively, the Appointment of the Officers, and the Authority of training the Militia according to the discipline prescribed by Congress;

To exercise exclusive Legislation in all Cases whatsoever, over such District (not exceeding ten Miles square) as may, by Cession of particular States, and the Acceptance of Congress, become the Seat of the Government of the United States, and to exercise like Authority over all Places purchased by the Consent of the Legislature of the State in which the Same shall be, for the Erection of Forts, Magazines, Arsenals, dock-Yards, and other needful Buildings;--And

To make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers, and all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof.

Section 9. The Migration or Importation of such Persons as any of the States now existing shall think proper to admit, shall not be prohibited by the Congress prior to the Year one thousand eight hundred and eight, but a Tax or duty may be imposed on such Importation, not exceeding ten dollars for each Person.

The Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it.

No Bill of Attainder or ex post facto Law shall be passed.

No Capitation, or other direct, Tax shall be laid, unless in Proportion to the Census or Enumeration herein before directed to be taken.

No Tax or Duty shall be laid on Articles exported from any State.

No Preference shall be given by any Regulation of Commerce or Revenue to the Ports of one State over those of another: nor shall Vessels bound to, or from, one State, be obliged to enter, clear or pay Duties in another.

No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law; and a regular Statement and Account of Receipts and Expenditures of all public Money shall be published from time to time.

No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States: And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.

Section 10. No State shall enter into any Treaty, Alliance, or Confederation; grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal; coin Money; emit Bills of Credit; make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts; pass any Bill of Attainder, ex post facto Law, or Law impairing the Obligation of Contracts, or grant any Title of Nobility.

No State shall, without the Consent of the Congress, lay any Imposts or Duties on Imports or Exports, except what may be absolutely necessary for executing it's inspection Laws: and the net Produce of all Duties and Imposts, laid by any State on Imports or Exports, shall be for the Use of the Treasury of the United States; and all such Laws shall be subject to the Revision and Controul of the Congress.

No State shall, without the Consent of Congress, lay any Duty of Tonnage, keep Troops, or Ships of War in time of Peace, enter into any Agreement or Compact with another State, or with a foreign Power, or engage in War, unless actually invaded, or in such imminent Danger as will not admit of delay."

It's also funny how the Militia (National Guard) is being used in our war of Terror. How is that part of defending the United States from invasion? But then the US started out attacking the Indians on it's Western borders right away. In a nightmare which today is directly copied by the Other Nations it supports. It goes by the name of genocide, confining to prisons called reservations and denying justice to the people who are the wrong race, wrong religion or wrong ethnicity. Even now justice is a one way street on the reservations. They only have jurisdiction over the prisoners and white's can commit crimes including rape and murder and walk free. On the Lakota, Dakota and Dakota Rezs. alone how many murders, rapes and so on have been either unsolved or unprosecuted by the FBI which is the sole police organization responsible for crimes committed by whites on the Rezs. Yep Manifest Destiny is a two edged sword and a idea which never should have been given any basis in fact. I ask the people how much does the current government follow it's supreme laws?

Thoughts 7/17/2014

Why would the government use paid agents to spread disinformation, false accusations and even entrapment against free speech on the web? Unless they are so afraid of us they are shitting their pants.
That's why they also want to make criminals out of reporters and news services like Wikileaks.

Israel is again committing more war crimes and crimes against humanity and lying about protecting them self from terrorist. The truth is they want to destroy the Unity Government between the West Bank and Gaza. Probably using a false flag killing of children to do so. Seeing as how they blamed Hamas without any proof. How about all the children they kidnap , torture, falsely imprison or kill? How about the illegal building of settlments in the West bank or the allowing of so called settlers going and killing their neighbors?

One of the best things I learned from the elders at Kinzu was that if a government keeps telling you the same thing over and over look hard at the propaganda. Most likely they are doing exactly the opposite.

Somebody was saying something the other day on a list I belong to about the Golden Rule. Another person responded with he who has the gold probably stole it from you. I hadn't heard that version before.

Unfortunately the government at all levels and the political party (RepublCrat or if you prefer DemoCran) are wholly owned branches of the Coch industries, Banksters and Wall Street Racketeers. The two headed monster that controls our voting is a criminal organization designed to extract bribes before selling to the highest bidder. No democracy exists within the banana republic of Amerikkka. Nor do the few corporate CEO's, Wall Street Racketeers and Banksters intend to allow democracy to ever break out.

The game Monopoly is very accurate. It was first designed to teach the truth about our economy and still does. Under capitalism only one winner is ever allowed.

If we could devise a game to counter Monopoly what would we name it and how would we play working together for the good of all? I don't care who gets the credit but we need to create a game where everyone wins.I don't know how but we need to create such a game and release it in online or board game form yesterday.

Old Mary taught me back in the early fifties that "Whenever you see a need, let everyone know. someone else or better yet many people will have parts of the answer."

Thoughts July 14th. 2012

Once more a so called war is being conducted against a people who have no army, navy or air force to resist. If that is not a war crime then I'll eat my hat.

By the same token we are still fighting so called terrorist in Afghanistan. How can they be terrorist when it is the people of the country trying to throw out invaders? If China invaded Amerikkka and imposed it's government upon us, I would be a terrorist also. Besides the reason we supposedly invaded other then building a oil pipeline from the Caspian Basin to Pakistan was to get Osama.  Main reason we are staying is we found a lot of resources that our corporations want to get their hands on.

Over and over I see that the price of photovoltaic is competitive with other sources of electricity. Over and over I see that wind sources are now capable of being in the backyard. for the cost of one new nuclear power plant, we can outfit many thousand buildings with renewable and tie all of them to the grid. Guess what free energy not just for the buildings but for the grid itself. No pollution, no worry about storm damage taking out the grid and only the maintenance of the grid itself as cost. Just using output factors published if every home in the six miles between here and town were to be used, that would supply most of the power needed in the whole county. That's not even fifty homes. Going by that Greene county coould install on every home and business and export energy on the existing grid.

The promises most often broken are the one's mad to self. The one's which you are going to do someday. Who needs a bucket list if you decide you are going to do something someday. Today is someday. Do something to bring life to that dream. After all most people are so busy making a living that they forget how to live.

Thoughts July 11th. 2014

I can't remember where I first heard this or why. However I see more and more the truth in the statement. "A expert is a drip under pressure." A expert is not someone who seeks new knowledge, new ways of doing things or new ways to apply old knowledge.  A expert is the guardian of keeping things the same forever. Perhaps we need less experts and more original thinkers. More people who stand up and say this is wrong or say why don't we try something new.

Why should we export our so called civilization to another planet. We have never shown any real sign of civilization here. Do we show any sign that we have learned, hell the Israeli government continues to treat their neighbors like they were treated by the 3rd. Reich. Including mowing the grass in Gaza every so often to keep the people imprisoned within more or less quiet.


Why do we allow corporations to treat human beings like slaves? Use them, beat them into submission of the job. Then discard them as useless eaters. The real useless eaters are those who call them self capitalist. they do not contribute anything to making or selling the crap they expect us to buy.

On Sat. who is going to have a drum circle, round dance or whatever to change peoples minds? Who is making signs to post or getting people to join in the protests against legalized murder which we call war, the legalized murder which we call lack of medical treatment or the legalized murder committed by the po-LICE?

You want to know why we get such crappy politicians, it's easy organized crime buy's them. By organized crime I am talking about the Banksteres, Wall Street Racketeers and Corporate Heads who love our one party two branches system. After all no matter which party wins, the crooks still own them.

I attended as a guest one of the full gospel churches a whle back. Didn't know if I was in a church or a Republican gathering. No wonder church membership is falling and half the church was empty. If I wasn't with friends I would have walked out. Maybe I should have, preacher asked me back after the sermon and I said I don't think so, nothing you said would go along with what Yeshua said and did. Friends don't come around much any more.


The only religion and people I have found who really are for peace is the Hopi nation. Least peaceful religion I note is a tie between Jews and Christians. Islam is a close third for being warlike. Guess no one has ever read the story about Cain and Able, except my Grandmother.

Has anyone noted that every where we export our democracy, the people end up poorer, the utilities stop working and the crime rate sours. Just like Amerikkka. No matter how much money we send to other nations, it always ends up as weapons being used against the people. That or propping up a criminal as head of government. Just look at the countries we have supported. Israel, Egypt, Ukraine, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Columbia, and so on. All pillars of democracy (not) and supporters of all the people. Our latest help to become a democracy like us is Syria which faces pirates who kill and cannibalize the very people they are supposed to help.

Thoughts July 5th. 2014

I have been thinking about war and violence. I have thought about how I have participated even to saying nothing when I observed it. I no longer am able to do so. It doesn't matter if it's the USA attacking Iraq for oil, or the local police beating up someone because they can. It's all wrong. I remember Grandmother saying a long time ago something I had forgotten until now. She was sitting in the kitchen while I was washing plates from supper and Kathy was cleaning the table and then getting Grandmothers sewing basket. Grandmother turned to Kathy and said "I understand you were in a fight with Nancy today." Kathy responded with a low "Yes." Because she knew from Grandmothers tone a lesson was at hand. Grandmother looked at both of us and motioned for us both to sit down. Then clearing her throat she said. "Do you remember the story of Cain and Able?' before either of us could reply she said Do you remember what Cain said when Great Mystery asked him where his brother was?" Kathy chimed in "Am I my brothers keeper?" Grandmother nodded and continued. "Yes Am I my brothers keeper and the two legged have been searching for the answer ever since." She looked at both of us again and then continued. "Your brother or sister is everyone on Mother Earth. Just because the government says you have to go to war and kill someone you don't know and have no quarrel with or he/she kill you doesn't make it right. That applies to fighting and even revenge also so both of you go apologize to Nancy in the morning. You for fighting and Bobby for cheering you on."  All three of them are gone now, so that conversation was about to be lost forever.  Just had to share it.

Thoughts 7/4/2014

Today Israel is bombing Gaza again. How can you have a war when only one side has a army? Occupation of another peoples land does not give you the right to take it over, kill the people whenever you feel like it or build settlements on it. Those are illegal under the rules of war. Nor can you collectively punish people for the acts of a few. Just because the people of Amerikkka did so doesn't make it right.

Today is the day the rich of Amerikkka revolted from Briton in order to have the freedom to continue to maintain black slavery and to do what they wanted about the Indians Briton had peace treaties with. Slavery was being done away with in all the other colonies. Then they wrote a Constitution which prohibited anyone not rich and white from having any say in government. Thats what the Rethuglicans want again. The hell with all the amendments.


Looking at today's actions by so called Christians it's time to start feeding Christians to the lions again.

Have a great holiday, just don't make me puke by celebrating Freedom and Democracy which we do not have.
