The question is, how do we get to fewer guns? Given the country's history, and 
the Second Amendment, and the current political situation, it's much, much more 
complicated than you might think.

It'll come down to the will of the people. If the debate really is as polarised 
as it gets reported over here then I suspect you've got an uphill struggle. 
Look at the lame excuses people post on here!


I can't much believe in the concept of "the will of the people" when it comes 
to the United States. The country is simply no longer a participatory 
democracy. It has one of the lowest voter turnout rates among world 
democracies, and when people do vote, they don't get what they voted for 
because of all the corruption and lobbying by corporate interests. 

Plus, "the people" are too self-serving and self-involved to ever take the 
kinds of actions that cause governments to listen to them. No one ever goes on 
strike unless they're a member of some union that keeps their paychecks coming 
in while they're on strike. Unlike, say, France, where when the guvmint does 
something they don't like they just declare a General Strike and *no one* goes 
to work. The whole country just stops dead -- no trains, no buses, no trucks, 
no airplanes, nothing. And the country *stays* stopped until the guvmint caves 
to the will of the people.

I simply do not believe this kind of "go on strike and miss a few paychecks for 
the good of *all* of us" thinking is even POSSIBLE in the U.S. any more. Polls 
indicate that the vast majority of the people want something done about the 
murderous situation they have created in their own streets, but "the people" 
are such self-serving sheep that they'd literally rather die in the tens of 
thousands every year from guns than do anything about it. 

So they go out and buy guns of their own and wear them the same way Catholics 
wear St. Christopher medals, as if the guns were some kind of talisman that was 
going to protect them. Americans are so stupid that they consider their guns a 
form of Woo Woo.    


I can't see people handing over the weapons if they can't be sure the guy on 
the other side of the tracks has done it too. Guns are so ingrained in your 
culture people might get anxious at the thought of losing what they see as 
their right to protect themselves.

One of the reasons an armed police force has been resisted over here is that if 
the average plod was habitually armed all the criminals would be too and then 
you'll get an arms race on the streets, we know that shooting someone is easy, 
and the public will clamour for the right to protect themselves too. sooner or 
later we end up like LA.

The lid is kept on it somehow with police armed response units being instantly 
ready as fights between drug gangs for instance are getting more violent, but 
shooting on the streets is still a thankfully rare thing over here.

 Miss Klass, a former singer with the pop group Hear'Say, was in her kitchen in 
the early hours of Friday when she saw two teenagers behaving suspiciously in 
her garden.

 The youths approached the kitchen window, before attempting to break into her

 Miss Klass, 31, who was alone in her house in Potters Bar, Herts, with her

informed her that she should not have used a knife to scare off the youths

[FairfieldLife] Mindfulness; the Guru as mantra - Let 'er rip, or not?

[fleetwood_macnche...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]]

I was thinking about those here, that I know of - Barry, Barry2, and Anne - who 
have closely studied with a guru, or spiritual teacher, and how the concept, 
the practice of mindfulness, makes a lot of sense, in that context. 

As I have expressed before, I am not a big fan of mindfulness, as a meditation 
practice, on its own, eyes open, or closed, because to my way of thinking, it 
puts the cart before the horse. However, I can see the strong value in having a 
spiritual teacher that a person actually has a personal relationship with, 
combined with mindfulness. 

That way, the teacher is functioning, much like the correct use of the mantra, 
in TM -  bringing the student to subtler levels and experiences, without the 
student having a say, in where they want to go (aka, take it easy, take it as 
it comes). Breaks boundaries, quickly.

Seems to me, that the advantage, of a personal relationship, with a spiritual 
teacher, combined with mindfulness, if done right, would be big, dramatic 
breakthroughs, in many, many areas - much faster, than the gradual 'erosion' of 
the mantra - though possible not as comprehensive, either...Both of the Barrys 
have mentioned significant interactions, as a result of, both, their attention, 
or mindfulness, on where the guru was pointing, in addition to the strength of 
the experience, itself, as a result of the guru's proximity. 

A risky spiritual investment, with a potentially huge upside, and downside - an 
interesting way to roll. 

Barrys and Anne (and anyone else), any insights, comments, peanuts, popcorn, 
confetti, fun-fetti, hair-in-a-can, or spare change??

 Give me a break. People with guns do all sorts of things they wouldn't dream 
of doing without the gun in their hand. Basic yellow-bellied cowards will 
suddenly become "brave" when they're holding a gun. People holding guns kill 
people. Cowards with only their fists or their words to fight their battles for

 one of the things most defenders of the 2nd Amendment ignore is that one of 
the biggest reasons to have an armed militia had nothing to do with the British 
and their ways, the militia had a long tradition even before the American 
Revolution. Most of the colonies (except Pennsylvania) had slaves. Many of the 
biggest slave owning colonies like Louisiana and South Carolina had populations 
of more black slaves than white people. The militia was organized and armed by 
white slave owners who were scared to death of slave revolts.
 That's why the framers of the Constitution wanted that 2nd Amendment in

 Interesting. So we should allow the second amendment to stand just in case we 
all end up with a house full of slaves and they decide they want to sleep in

No politician here in the US would admit to doing TM if they were running for 
national office - and if one did, I guarantee you I will be there in the 
forefront of the move to denounce him or her. After the public was informed 
about the Burger King hat wearing rajas and the fear of south facing entrances

[FairfieldLife] Any dead people in the Dome?

[s3raph...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]]

 From The Daily Telegraph: Indian court asked to rule on whether Hindu guru 
dead or meditating The family and followers of one of India's wealthiest Hindu 
spiritual leaders are fighting a legal battle over whether he is dead or simply 
in a deep state of meditation.

 His Holiness Shri Ashutosh Maharaj, the founder of the Divya Jyoti Jagrati 
Sansthan religious order with a property estate worth an estimated £100 
million, died in January, according to his wife and son.

 However, his disciples at his Ashram have refused to let the family take his 
body for cremation because they claim he is still alive.

 According to his followers, based in the Punjab city of Jalandhar, he simply 
went into a deep Samadhi or meditation and they have frozen his body to 
preserve it for when he wakes from it.

 His body is currently contained in a commercial freezer at their Ashram.
 The late – or living – guru, who was in his seventies, established his sect in 
1983 to promote "self-awakening to global peace" and to create a world "wherein 
every individual becomes an embodiment of truth, fraternity and justice through 
the eternal science of self-realisation".
 While he is thought to have died from a heart attack, his devotees believe he 
has simply drifted into a deeper form of the meditation he promotes as a 
pathway to self-realisation.
 A statement on the group's website reads: "His Holiness Shri Ashutosh Maharaj 
ji has been in deep meditative state (Samadhi) since 29th January 2014."
 According to one of his aides, who asked not to be named, "Maharaj has been in 
deep meditation. He has spent many years meditating in sub-zero temperatures in 
the Himalayas, there is nothing unusual in it. He will return to life as soon 
as he feels and we will ensure his body is preserved until then", he said.
 His body is held in a guarded room in a deep freezer on his 100 acre retreat 
in Nurmahal, Jalandhar, where only a few elders and sect doctors are allowed to 
enter.
 Although Punjab Police initially confirmed his death, the Punjab High Court 
later dismissed its status report and local governmental officials said it was 
a spiritual matter and that the guru's followers cannot be forced to believe he 
is dead.
 Now his wife and son have filed a court application calling for an 
investigation into the circumstances of his death and for his body to be 
released for cremation.

Today we went to the Apple Store in the mall and we saw a Retina Display.

Gizmag compares the features and specs of the Microsoft Surface Pro 3 
and Apple MacBook Pro with Retina Display (13-in):

True. And it's still badly written. As an editor, would you let that sentence

The President of Brazil does TM. 

 At least one past-President of Mozambique does TM.
 

 William Hague,  First Secretary of State 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Secretary_of_State and the Secretary of 
State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secretary_of_State_for_Foreign_and_Commonwealth_Affairs

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deputy_Prime_Minister_of_the_United_Kingdom and 
Lord President of the Council 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lord_President_of_the_Council, both in the UK, do 
TM.
 

 No doubt many other people in high leadership positions do TM.
 

 

 It's not that far-fetched to expect more world leaders to learn TM in the 
future, as the research showing that TM has unique effects, continues to be 
published.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Scorpionland Style Parking

[s3raph...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]]

Plod are bit thick sometimes. This story is from a few years back but shows how 
the police care more for the crooks than the victims  . . .
 Miss Klass, a former singer with the pop group Hear'Say, was in her kitchen in 
the early hours of Friday when she saw two teenagers behaving suspiciously in 
her garden.

 The youths approached the kitchen window, before attempting to break into her 
garden shed, prompting Miss Klass to wave a kitchen knife to scare them away.

 Miss Klass, 31, who was alone in her house in Potters Bar, Herts, with her 
two-year-old daughter, called the police. When they arrived at her house they 
informed her that she should not have used a knife to scare off the youths 
because carrying an "offensive weapon" – even in her own home – was illegal.

---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com,  wrote :

 I must say that sometimes the authorities in Merrye Olde Scorpion lande are 
rather an odd bunch. I remember back a few years ago reading a BBC news item 
about a reclusive and according to the man's neighbors, not a very friendly 
chap who was in his farmhouse when two Irish travelers broke into his place. He 
shot them both and killed one, who as it happened was about 16 or 17. 

 

 Ah yes, Tony Martin. Bit of a folk hero for some. But was found guilty of 
murder. We are allowed to defend ourselves using reasonable force even if 
someone dies, it's up to the jury to decide. In this case they thought that 
shooting people three times was excessive and he probably intended to kill them 
but he got his sentence reduced to manslaughter on the grounds of diminished 
responsibility on appeal. Which sounds about right to me.
 

 Martin had an illegal shotgun and not even a license for his legal one. I 
think the answer is that if you break into someone's home you have to accept 
they might be a paranoid and lonely old man with a collection of illegal 
weapons. But there's always a few who will try it on.

 

 

 Both these intruders had criminal records a mile long, yet the authorities 
arrested the farmer and convicted him of killing the boy. He didn't have to do 
too much time just a few years, yet while he was incarcerated, the local 
geniuses who run things decided to locate one of the obligatory Irish 
traveler's camps within a mile of this man's farm. This after a number of the 
travelers had threatened this man with Grievous Bodily Harm during his trial, 
and said they were going to get him one way or another. 
 

 He's now got a price on his head and lives at a secret address apparently. 
 

 The whole issue is fraught with difficulty for the law, we really don't want 
to end up like america with "armed response" signs on every lawn and loaded 
semi-automatics by the bedside. Madness lies that way. But the other side is 
that if someone attacks you and you defend yourself you automatically get 
arrested, which obviously annoys a lot of people.
 

 I think the law is being changed now to favour homeowners - or anyone who gets 
attacked anywhere - more. It must be frightening to live in a big house in the 
country and get burglars all the time but shooting people is still out of the 
question. Easiest way to scare people off I would have thought...
 

 It was reported in the article that this man was very reclusive and didn't 
like dealing with other people, especially on his property. So out of concern 
that the travelers who now had a legal camp just a mile or so from the man's 
farm, the local authorities decided to locate a police substation staffed with 
a couple officers right outside the man's house!! I guess Scorpion land 
policing and governmental thinking are different.
 

 Sounds rather disconnected...

 “It's about letting the universe know what you want, and working toward it,

When you refer to the right to bear arms as "some obscure amendment," you make 
yourself look RLY RLY STOOOPID about American history. It's 
OK for you as a Brit not to be well informed about your former colony's 
post-independence history, but given your ignorance, you're probably better off 
not trying to make comments about it.
 

 You really should know what the Bill of Rights is, though. That's pretty basic.

[Michael Jackson mjackso...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]]

I haven't drunk tequila or smoked pot in over 35 years. 


India hardly qualifies as a "true Superpower." 


This claim that Modi is a TM'er is sketchy at best and is only being claimed by 
the TM Movement itself. No news organization independent of the Movement has 
said a damn thing about his being a TM meditator. As usual the Movement is 
using a thin excuse to bolster itself and try to make itself look good. 


And as is the case with D Lynch, Russell Brand and Howard Stern the association 
is ironic and yet appropo at the same time. How so, you ask?

This Modi is, among other things, a rabid Hindu nationalist, who has been 
accused of encouraging ethnic cleansing against the Muslims in the Gujarat 
riots of 2002. 

To wit:
Mr Modi has for the most part used his reign over Gujarat cannily. But 
what took place just after he came to office still casts a long shadow. 
On February 27th 2002, Muslims in the Gujarati town of Godhra set fire 
to a train carrying Hindu pilgrims back from Ayodhya, a town in Uttar 
Pradesh where, a decade before, the destruction of a mosque triggered 
nationwide riots that killed 2,000. Fifty-nine men, women and children 
died on the train; nine years later 31 people were convicted of a 
“planned conspiracy” to burn it.

After the attack on the train Hindu groups in Gujarat immediately called a 
bandh—a strike-cum-protest. Days of bloodshed, rape and torture followed, with 
weeks of further sporadic attacks on Muslims. Over 1,000 died, some 
18,000 homes were destroyed and around 200,000 Muslims displaced. 


On 
February 28th an attack on the home of Ehsan Jafri, a former Congress 
MP, killed Mr Jafri and 68 others. On the same day at least 96 were 
killed in Naroda Patiya, a Muslim part of Ahmedabad, Gujarat’s largest 
city. 


In many places the police either did nothing to protect the 
victims or, according to Human Rights Watch, an American advocacy group, 
“actively supported” the massacres. Where the police did their jobs, in 
southern Gujarati towns like Surat, no one died.

Mr Modi could have forbidden the bandh; he could have quickly ordered a curfew; 
he could have compelled the police to 
act. He did none of those things. Nor did he call in the national police force 
or the army soon enough. India’s human-rights commission 
described the response by the state government as a “comprehensive 
failure”. 


The BJP’s leader wanted to sack him (it was Mr Advani, 
ironically, who saved his skin). In 2005 America revoked Mr Modi’s visa, on the 
basis that “he was responsible for the performance of state 
institutions” in the riots. Some say he was more directly culpable, 
alleging that he deliberately stood down the police.

Critics say that attempts to apportion blame by India’s courts were 
obstructed by the authorities in Gujarat, with charges badly filed, 
minutes of crucial government meetings either missing or never kept, and 
evidence destroyed. 


A special-investigations team of the Supreme Court last year cleared him of 30 
allegations made by Mr Jafri’s widow and others. It rejected 
testimony that he had told police not to confront Hindu mobs, ruling one 
witness, Sanjiv Bhatt, who worked in police intelligence, unreliable 
after others contradicted him. Other claims along the same lines were 
ruled out as hearsay.

We HAVE restrictions on gun ownership. In California were have waiting 
periods and background checks before you can get your gun.  Nothing 
wrong with that.  But to think that banning guns which will never happen 
anyway is the solution then I have a bridge on sale today.

Barry, I got to hand it to you. When people say "America, love it or 
leave it", you did and I appreciate that! I hope I'm not compelled 
to do the same some day.



It was my call, and I certainly don't regret it. Especially when 
reading the real news articles and real statistics that led to The 
Onion writing this article.


I mean, Americans live in a society in which they are killing each 
other in numbers that are simply not seen in other economically 
developed parts of the world, and they feel helpless because don't 
think they can do anything about it. And yet they believe they live 
in a democracy.


When are people in America going to stand up and say, "Our dead kids 
DO trump your Constitutional right to have a gun"? After all, 
according to a study from the Yale School of Medicine, over 10,000 
children under the age of 20 are hospitalized or killed by guns in 
America every year. Of that number about 3,500 of them die of their 
injuries.


Do the math. That's a lot of dead kids so that people can own a 
penis substitute.


Sorry Turq, I'm with Mike on this one, not as if I haven't said so 
before.  Besides, we're not exactly dodging bullets every day. 
Besides, what about knives? Should we ban them too?  After all the 
Santa Barbara kid killed half his victims with a knife. That's 
probably why the liberal community has shifted the discussion from 
guns to mental health.  So you may be a bit off script. ;-)


Don't get me wrong...I am not suggesting that there are any easy 
solutions. You guys got yourselves into this mess with your frontier 
"My gun is my penis and the symbol of my masculinity and John 
Wayne-ness and my all-important, all-American independence" 
mentality, and now it's a done deal.


I'm just commenting on the fact that Americans seem to have GIVEN UP 
AND GIVEN IN to the gun nuts, and have rolled over and allowed them 
to steamroller them into a society in which they honestly believe 
that the only way to be "safe" is to carry around a piece of 
technology that has no other purpose but to kill another human being. 
Please explain to me how that's terribly more evolved than Stone Age 
thinking.


Let's see, guns are high tech rock throwing devices? :-D

BTW, I know some liberals who own guns. One local liberal talk host 
talks about having one in her purse and how it saved her and her dad's 
life during an encounter once.  Go 'figger'.



Do you actually believe that this either refutes or diminishes my 
argument?


Do you believe that the "liberal brainwashed" are in any way different 
than the "conservative brainwashed?"


I am surrounded every day by people who cannot conceive of the need to 
own or carry a gun to lead their everyday lives. Do you consider them 
"lesser" than those who are so full of fear that they feel such a 
need, whatever their political affiliations?


Just to be clear, I don't own a gun. But at this time in history with 
the inequality going on not only in the US but globally this may NOT  be 
the time to do away with the right to own guns.


1) There are over 7 billion people on earth.
2) The establishment  is piss poor at providing the 7 billion a livable 
and sustainable environment.
3) The establishment could provide the 7 billion a living environment 
but they would have to give up control.  Bucky Fuller said over 50 years 
ago.

4) The establishment won't give up control so they have to be overthrown.
5) If you don't overthrow the establishment you will live in a world of 
their tyranny where they rule like kings and everyone else is treated 
like chickens in a coop.
6) If you overthrow the establishment then it is probable chaos will 
ensue for a while but that may be far better than living under tyranny.  
If we a pro-active we might prevent those who want to grab power post 
the overthrow from doing so.
7) The is also the prospect that establishment is dumb enough to start 
falling apart itself.  They aren't as smart as they think they are and 
people like them who are principally focused on the bottom line are not 
that evolved spiritually.  In fact they are the supreme example of 
materialists. Good reason why they are on the third rung of the Indian 
caste system.  Some major corporation in the US are beginning to fall 
apart at the seams as sales go into the toilet. They seem to not realize 
that impoverished

 And, er, we don't "insist that some obscure amendment to the all powerful

Second Amendment  (the First Amendment is freedom of speech and religion), 
hardly "obscure." You might want to brush up a bit on your U.S. history:

 I don't know whether crime is endemic in travelling communities, the

all this stuff because of the different lifestyle and the ungodly mess they 
leave behind. Or maybe the kids are more likely to help themselves to your

 Classic student humour mag called Viz Comic started a cartoon strip called 
"Thieving gypsy bastards" It was condemned as racist and a group of gypsies 
took Viz to court, proceedings were only temporarily delayed by their spokesman 
having to do jail time for, erm, theft. 

 

 So the stereotype is real and part of our culture. Tricky to track down any 
convincing statistics though.
 

 

 I ask remembering a story my sister told me:

 

 Some years ago, my sister and several friends were traveling through Italy on 
a bus tour - the tour guide, a local native was pointing out various aspects of 
the countryside, and suddenly he announced that if the tourists would look out 
here comes some gypsies. He told them they had to watch out for these people 
because they engaged in criminal behavior and would readily steal and rob. The 
guide paused for a moment and said "This is not prejudice or anything like 
that. This is just fact."

But is the vilification justified?? 


I ask remembering a story my sister told me:


Some years ago, my sister and several friends were traveling through Italy on a 
bus tour - the tour guide, a local native was pointing out various aspects of 
the countryside, and suddenly he announced that if the tourists would look out 
here comes some gypsies. He told them they had to watch out for these people 
because they engaged in criminal behavior and would readily steal and rob. The 
guide paused for a moment and said "This is not prejudice or anything like 
that. This is just fact."

The U.S. has numerous laws against the unlawful possession of guns and 
firearms. For example, you cannot possess a gun if you are a minor, a 
convicted criminal, a felon, or your are demonstrably insane. The 
problem of guns in America hinges on the right to defend yourself from 
criminals intent of causing you harm.


So, I encourage all women who can pass the test to obtain a gun so they 
can protect themselves. While it is probably rare that anyone of us 
would be confronted by violent aggressor, it is still is a good idea to 
be prepared to defend yourself if your life is threatened. The real 
problem is not gun ownership, but /a national gun registry/. It's 
complicated.


In Switzerland, there are three main conditions for getting a gun carry 
permit:


/1. Fulfill all the conditions for buying a permit stating plausibly and 
clearly the need to carry firearms to protect oneself, other people, or 
real property from a specified danger.//
//2. You must pass an examination proving both the weapon handling 
skills and knowledge regarding lawful use of the weapons.//
//3. The carrying permit remains valid for a term of five years and 
applies only to the type of firearm for which the permit was issued. //

//4. Neither hunters nor game wardens require a carrying permit./

Mike, as far as I can figure, there are 2 routes to creating an armed militia.

a gun from your own arsenal.

Hitlers and Stalins that come, just about every generation( Mao, Pol Pot,

choose, so their kids aren't in danger and focus on denying the criminally 
minded and mentally ill, easy access to a firearm. If that sounds unreasonable 
, I guess Europe is a *safe* place to live... for now.

 Yep, that's what I'm sayin'.When you've got idiots like this spouting out this 
antiquated bullshit then I wonder if there is hope for America with regard to 
gun laws. It would be guys like this who would be willing to shoot their 
'fellow Americans' in order to protect their right to bear arms. Whoopdeedoo. I 
will probably never come back to the USA to live, it is getting worse on this 
front all the time. People who insist on gun toting are those who are the most 
fearful. Fear is what kills, fear is what takes away people's (like Joe the 
Plumber) ability to see clearly. It takes away an essential aspect of their 
humanity and they become dangers to everyone including themselves.

Maybe so, but Barry hasn't mentioned having a relationship with any

 I can guarantee that no one ever said "oh good the gypsies are staying

 It would be in the United States, where "Irish travelers" refers to a 
tradition of originally Irish Gypsies who still travel in groups throughout the

 Really? Would like to see that.

---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com,  wrote :

 I must say that sometimes the authorities in Merrye Olde Scorpion lande are 
rather an odd bunch. I remember back a few years ago reading a BBC news item 
about a reclusive and according to the man's neighbors, not a very friendly 
chap who was in his farmhouse when two Irish travelers broke into his place. He 
shot them both and killed one, who as it happened was about 16 or 17. 

 

 Ah yes, Tony Martin. Bit of a folk hero for some. But was found guilty of 
murder. We are allowed to defend ourselves using reasonable force even if 
someone dies, it's up to the jury to decide. In this case they thought that 
shooting people three times was excessive and he probably intended to kill them 
but he got his sentence reduced to manslaughter on the grounds of diminished 
responsibility on appeal. Which sounds about right to me.
 

 Martin had an illegal shotgun and not even a license for his legal one. I 
think the answer is that if you break into someone's home you have to accept 
they might be a paranoid and lonely old man with a collection of illegal 
weapons. But there's always a few who will try it on.

 

 

 Both these intruders had criminal records a mile long, yet the authorities 
arrested the farmer and convicted him of killing the boy. He didn't have to do 
too much time just a few years, yet while he was incarcerated, the local 
geniuses who run things decided to locate one of the obligatory Irish 
traveler's camps within a mile of this man's farm. This after a number of the 
travelers had threatened this man with Grievous Bodily Harm during his trial, 
and said they were going to get him one way or another. 
 

 He's now got a price on his head and lives at a secret address apparently. 
 

 The whole issue is fraught with difficulty for the law, we really don't want 
to end up like america with "armed response" signs on every lawn and loaded 
semi-automatics by the bedside. Madness lies that way. But the other side is 
that if someone attacks you and you defend yourself you automatically get 
arrested, which obviously annoys a lot of people.
 

 I think the law is being changed now to favour homeowners - or anyone who gets 
attacked anywhere - more. It must be frightening to live in a big house in the 
country and get burglars all the time but shooting people is still out of the 
question. Easiest way to scare people off I would have thought...
 

 It was reported in the article that this man was very reclusive and didn't 
like dealing with other people, especially on his property. So out of concern 
that the travelers who now had a legal camp just a mile or so from the man's 
farm, the local authorities decided to locate a police substation staffed with 
a couple officers right outside the man's house!! I guess Scorpion land 
policing and governmental thinking are different.
 

 Sounds rather disconnected...

It was my call, and I certainly don't regret it. Especially when 
reading the real news articles and real statistics that led to The 
Onion writing this article.


I mean, Americans live in a society in which they are killing each 
other in numbers that are simply not seen in other economically 
developed parts of the world, and they feel helpless because don't 
think they can do anything about it. And yet they believe they live 
in a democracy.


When are people in America going to stand up and say, "Our dead kids 
DO trump your Constitutional right to have a gun"? After all, 
according to a study from the Yale School of Medicine, over 10,000 
children under the age of 20 are hospitalized or killed by guns in 
America every year. Of that number about 3,500 of them die of their 
injuries.


Do the math. That's a lot of dead kids so that people can own a penis 
substitute.


Sorry Turq, I'm with Mike on this one, not as if I haven't said so 
before.  Besides, we're not exactly dodging bullets every day.  
Besides, what about knives?  Should we ban them too?  After all the 
Santa Barbara kid killed half his victims with a knife. That's 
probably why the liberal community has shifted the discussion from 
guns to mental health.  So you may be a bit off script. ;-)


Don't get me wrong...I am not suggesting that there are any easy 
solutions. You guys got yourselves into this mess with your frontier 
"My gun is my penis and the symbol of my masculinity and John 
Wayne-ness and my all-important, all-American independence" mentality, 
and now it's a done deal.


I'm just commenting on the fact that Americans seem to have GIVEN UP 
AND GIVEN IN to the gun nuts, and have rolled over and allowed them to 
steamroller them into a society in which they honestly believe that 
the only way to be "safe" is to carry around a piece of technology 
that has no other purpose but to kill another human being. Please 
explain to me how that's terribly more evolved than Stone Age thinking.


Let's see, guns are high tech rock throwing devices? :-D

BTW, I know some liberals who own guns.  One local liberal talk host 
talks about having one in her purse and how it saved her and her dad's 
life during an encounter once.  Go 'figger'.

You sound prejudiced against Hindus. Never pass up a political event if
it can help you win a debate about religion. In fact India, the worlds
largest democracy, had national elections that were totally non-violent.
So, now we can expect India to prosper more than it is already doing!



And the last time the conservative BJP was in power Richard was berating 
my tantra guru because he somehow thought he was a conservative.  FYI, 
not all Indians are conservative.  Most I have known were very liberal.

By some law passed in the 70's the Scorpion government is obliged to create 
camps kind-a like trailer parks for the Irish travelers to haul their 
motorhomes nad trailers to and hang out for as long as they like. According to 
the BBC, the local authorities decided to locate a traveler camp within a mile 
or so of this farmer's home AFTER the killings took place. Then when he was 
about to get out of gaol, they decided to locate the police substation next to 
his home at taxpayer expense of course. Sounds like some TM big wig was in 
charge of the whole affair.

Never mind. I Googled it, and "Irish travelers" IS, in fact, a euphemism for 
Gypsies in this case. That -- and that group's traditional supposed association 
with crime -- may have had more to do with the location choice of a police 
station than concern for this one elderly gentleman.

Just as a question for Salyavin, is the term "Irish travelers" in this story a 
euphemism for Gypsies? It would be in the United States, where "Irish 
travelers" refers to a tradition of originally Irish Gypsies who still travel 
in groups throughout the U.S. They were, in fact, the inspiration for a 
short-lived but excellent TV show called "The Riches," starring Eddie Izzard.

I must say that sometimes the authorities in Merrye Olde Scorpion lande are

shot them both and killed one, who as it happened was about 16 or 17. 


Ah yes, Tony Martin. Bit of a folk hero for some. But was found guilty of 
murder. We are allowed to defend ourselves using reasonable force even if 
someone dies, it's up to the jury to decide. In this case they thought that 
shooting people three times was excessive and he probably intended to kill them 
but he got his sentence reduced to manslaughter on the grounds of diminished 
responsibility on appeal. Which sounds about right to me.

Martin had an illegal shotgun and not even a license for his legal one. I think 
the answer is that if you break into someone's home you have to accept they 
might be a paranoid and lonely old man with a collection of illegal weapons. 
But there's always a few who will try it on.



Both these intruders had criminal records a mile long, yet the authorities 
arrested the farmer and convicted him of killing the boy. He didn't have to do 
too much time just a few years, yet while he was incarcerated, the local 
geniuses who run things decided to locate one of the obligatory Irish 
traveler's camps within a mile of this man's farm. This after a number of the 
travelers had threatened this man with Grievous Bodily Harm during his trial, 
and said they were going to get him one way or another. 

He's now got a price on his head and lives at a secret address apparently. 

The whole issue is fraught with difficulty for the law, we really don't want to 
end up like america with "armed response" signs on every lawn and loaded 
semi-automatics by the bedside. Madness lies that way. But the other side is 
that if someone attacks you and you defend yourself you automatically get 
arrested, which obviously annoys a lot of people.

I think the law is being changed now to favour homeowners - or anyone who gets 
attacked anywhere - more. It must be frightening to live in a big house in the 
country and get burglars all the time but shooting people is still out of the 
question. Easiest way to scare people off I would have thought...

It was
reported in the article that this man was very reclusive and didn't like 
dealing with other people, especially on his property. So out of concern that 
the travelers who now had a legal camp just a mile or so from the man's farm, 
the local authorities decided to locate a police substation staffed with a

and governmental thinking are different.

Yes, she was completely out of

Woman arrested but not gagged
By Eileen Dannemann | May 22, 2014
To the editor:
Spending eight hours in a cold cell in Jefferson County jail replete with gray 
and white stripes allowed me to realize that the “good ol’ boys network” is 
alive and well in Fairfield. So, let me tell you what I found out:
The Heartland project will ship 20 million bushels of GMO corn to Texas and 
Mexico​ despite Mexico being the corn capital of the Americas and disregarding 
the fact that Mexico has banned the planting of GMO maize. This is how the USA 
subverts the economies of developing countries.
Locally, it will take 25,000 semi-trailers to deliver the grain to Heartland. 
25,000 semi-trailers equal 50,000-semi trailers-round trip. Drivers will be 
reticent to drive under the 115-year old BNSF railroad, one lane Nutmeg Avenue 
gravel underpass, but will instead come down Burlington Avenue, past Walmart & 
HyVee substantially slowing down traffic and
polluting the city. It is interesting to note that 12 percent of Jefferson 
County residents already have lung problems. The county cannot ban Heartland 
semi-trailers from going down Burlington without banning all similar 
semi-trailers. So expect them!
Lee Dimmitt admitted that he was aware of BNSF railroad’s adamant refusal to 
renovate the Nutmeg underpass, a critical component in the deal. Yet the 
supervisors approved the TIF/bonding resolution, purposely leaving out what 
they know to be the county’s responsibility in the very near future – to 
renovate the dangerous one lane gravel underpass.
Were the entire Nutmeg
underpass construction included, transparently, in the front end of the deal 
where it belongs, the taxpayers would see that they are actually on the hook 
for $5 million. However, the supervisors put it on the back end, virtually out 
of sight. In other words, we are obligated to increase the debt at the time the 
one lane gravel underpass becomes untenable and dilapidated. At that time we 
will be forced to add another $2.8 million to fix the safety problem. Hence the 
aerial view of the taxpayer debt seeing both the front and back end is $5 
million dollars, not $2.5 million dollars. The service on the totality of this 
debt has not been calculated and disclosed to the public and appears to be 
financially unsustainable.
Moreover, the supervisors are remiss in not securing an “outside”
feasibility study. If Heartland does not meet its ambitious goals, it can fail. 
A CEO in the grain industry has told me, in his opinion, the Heartland project 
in not viable. If so, we will not only be left with an enormous debt but an 
abandoned monstrosity at our east gate with no property income to defray the 
debt. The supervisors’ actions are characterized by ignorance and “a lack of 
due diligence in securing professional advice, amounting to willful blindness.”
Just this week, in the face of the community’s concerns, the supervisors had 
the temerity to sign off on a $5,000 appropriation of taxpayer monies to hire

Sorry Turq, I'm with Mike on this one, not as if I haven't said so
before.  Besides, we're not exactly dodging bullets every day. 
Besides, what about knives?  Should we ban them too?  After all the
Santa Barbara kid killed half his victims with a knife. That's
probably why the liberal community has shifted the discussion from
guns to mental health.  So you may be a bit off script. ;-) 

Don't get me wrong...I am not suggesting that there are any easy solutions. You 
guys got yourselves into this mess with your frontier "My gun is my penis and 
the symbol of my masculinity and John Wayne-ness and my all-important, 
all-American independence" mentality, and now it's a done deal. 

I'm just commenting on the fact that Americans seem to have GIVEN UP AND GIVEN 
IN to the gun nuts, and have rolled over and allowed them to steamroller them 
into a society in which they honestly believe that the only way to be "safe" is 
to carry around a piece of technology that has no other purpose but to kill 
another human being. Please explain to me how that's terribly more evolved than 
Stone Age thinking.

Woman arrested but not gagged
By Eileen Dannemann | May 22, 2014
To the editor:
Spending eight hours in a cold cell in Jefferson County jail replete with gray 
and white stripes allowed me to realize that the “good ol’ boys network” is 
alive and well in Fairfield. So, let me tell you what I found out:
The Heartland project will ship 20 million bushels of GMO corn to Texas and 
Mexico​ despite Mexico being the corn capital of the Americas and disregarding 
the fact that Mexico has banned the planting of GMO maize. This is how the USA 
subverts the economies of developing countries.
Locally, it will take 25,000 semi-trailers to deliver the grain to Heartland. 
25,000 semi-trailers equal 50,000-semi trailers-round trip. Drivers will be 
reticent to drive under the 115-year old BNSF railroad, one lane Nutmeg Avenue 
gravel underpass, but will instead come down Burlington Avenue, past Walmart & 
HyVee substantially slowing down traffic and polluting the city. It is 
interesting to note that 12 percent of Jefferson County residents already have 
lung problems. The county cannot ban Heartland semi-trailers from going down 
Burlington without banning all similar semi-trailers. So expect them!
Lee Dimmitt admitted that he was aware of BNSF railroad’s adamant refusal to 
renovate the Nutmeg underpass, a critical component in the deal. Yet the 
supervisors approved the TIF/bonding resolution, purposely leaving out what 
they know to be the county’s responsibility in the very near future – to 
renovate the dangerous one lane gravel underpass.
Were the entire Nutmeg underpass construction included, transparently, in the 
front end of the deal where it belongs, the taxpayers would see that they are 
actually on the hook for $5 million. However, the supervisors put it on the 
back end, virtually out of sight. In other words, we are obligated to increase 
the debt at the time the one lane gravel underpass becomes untenable and 
dilapidated. At that time we will be forced to add another $2.8 million to fix 
the safety problem. Hence the aerial view of the taxpayer debt seeing both the 
front and back end is $5 million dollars, not $2.5 million dollars. The service 
on the totality of this debt has not been calculated and disclosed to the 
public and appears to be financially unsustainable.
Moreover, the supervisors are remiss in not securing an “outside” feasibility 
study. If Heartland does not meet its ambitious goals, it can fail. A CEO in 
the grain industry has told me, in his opinion, the Heartland project in not 
viable. If so, we will not only be left with an enormous debt but an abandoned 
monstrosity at our east gate with no property income to defray the debt. The 
supervisors’ actions are characterized by ignorance and “a lack of due 
diligence in securing professional advice, amounting to willful blindness.”
Just this week, in the face of the community’s concerns, the supervisors had 
the temerity to sign off on a $5,000 appropriation of taxpayer monies to hire 
outside attorneys so as to FEDA-fast track a legally binding TIF/bonding 
agreement between the county and Heartland, leaving out the Nutmeg underpass. 
No such agreement should be signed nor appropriations made to outside attorneys 
on behalf of the county before the whole Heartland/FEDA/supervisor story is 
pulled out from under the cover of darkness and the actual cost analysis 
including the Nutmeg back ended underpass is revealed to the taxpayers.

This is just an estimate because in the U.S. there is no /national

the U.S. has the best-armed civilian population in the world, ahead of

If you look at the order of Amendments to to Constitution, the first was 
for free speech and the second was to back up that right.  As I've said 
before we have no idea of where the US would be today if it wasn't for 
the 2nd backing up the 1st.  Probably would have had a history just like 
Europe with lots of coup d'etats (not that 9/11 wasn't but that's 
another story) and totalitarian governments.


Right now we have a small group of very, very rich people who don't like 
us having the 1st and our modern means of using it: the Internet.  They 
don't like it because we can criticize them on the Internet.  We can 
build coalitions against them and their business plans.  That First 
Amendment and keeping the Internet open is worth fighting for.

Yep, that's what I'm sayin'.When you've got idiots like this spouting out this

will probably never come back to the USA to live, it is getting worse on this

‘No Way To Prevent This,’ Says Only Nation Where This Regularly Happens

ISLA
VISTA, CA—In the days following a violent rampage in southern
California in which a lone attacker killed seven individuals, including
himself, and seriously injured over a dozen others, citizens living in
the only country where this kind of mass killing routinely occurs
reportedly concluded Tuesday that there was no way to prevent the
massacre from taking place. “This was a terrible tragedy, but sometimes
these things just happen and there’s nothing anyone can do to stop
them,” said North Carolina resident Samuel Wipper, echoing sentiments
expressed by tens of millions of individuals who reside in a nation
where over half of the world’s deadliest mass shootings have occurred in
the past 50 years and whose citizens are 20 times more likely to die of
gun violence than those of other developed nations. “It’s a shame, but
what can we do? There really wasn’t anything that was going to keep this
guy from snapping and killing a lot of people if that’s what he really
wanted.” At press time, residents of the only economically advanced
nation in the world where roughly two mass shootings have occurred every
month for the past five years were referring to themselves and their
situation as “helpless.”

Never mind. I Googled it, and "Irish travelers" IS, in fact, a euphemism for 
Gypsies in this case. That -- and that group's traditional supposed association 
with crime -- may have had more to do with the location choice of a police 
station than concern for this one elderly gentleman.

Just as a question for Salyavin, is the term "Irish travelers" in this story a 
euphemism for Gypsies? It would be in the United States, where "Irish 
travelers" refers to a tradition of originally Irish Gypsies who still travel 
in groups throughout the U.S. They were, in fact, the inspiration for a 
short-lived but excellent TV show called "The Riches," starring Eddie Izzard.

I must say that sometimes the authorities in Merrye Olde Scorpion lande are 
rather an odd bunch. I remember back a few years ago reading a BBC news item 
about a reclusive and according to the man's neighbors, not a very friendly 
chap who was in his farmhouse when two Irish travelers broke into his place. He 
shot them both and killed one, who as it happened was about 16 or 17. 


Ah yes, Tony Martin. Bit of a folk hero for some. But was found guilty of 
murder. We are allowed to defend ourselves using reasonable force even if 
someone dies, it's up to the jury to decide. In this case they thought that 
shooting people three times was excessive and he probably intended to kill them 
but he got his sentence reduced to manslaughter on the grounds of diminished 
responsibility on appeal. Which sounds about right to me.

Martin had an illegal shotgun and not even a license for his legal one. I think 
the answer is that if you break into someone's home you have to accept they 
might be a paranoid and lonely old man with a collection of illegal weapons. 
But there's always a few who will try it on.



Both these intruders had criminal records a mile long, yet the authorities 
arrested the farmer and convicted him of killing the boy. He didn't have to do 
too much time just a few years, yet while he was incarcerated, the local 
geniuses who run things decided to locate one of the obligatory Irish 
traveler's camps within a mile of this man's farm. This after a number of the 
travelers had threatened this man with Grievous Bodily Harm during his trial, 
and said they were going to get him one way or another. 

He's now got a price on his head and lives at a secret address apparently. 

The whole issue is fraught with difficulty for the law, we really don't want to 
end up like america with "armed response" signs on every lawn and loaded 
semi-automatics by the bedside. Madness lies that way. But the other side is 
that if someone attacks you and you defend yourself you automatically get 
arrested, which obviously annoys a lot of people.

I think the law is being changed now to favour homeowners - or anyone who gets 
attacked anywhere - more. It must be frightening to live in a big house in the 
country and get burglars all the time but shooting people is still out of the 
question. Easiest way to scare people off I would have thought...

It was
reported in the article that this man was very reclusive and didn't like 
dealing with other people, especially on his property. So out of concern that 
the travelers who now had a legal camp just a mile or so from the man's farm, 
the local authorities decided to locate a police substation staffed with a 
couple officers right outside the man's house!! I guess Scorpion land policing 
and governmental thinking are different.

Sounds rather disconnected...
