I just feel that it should be ok to question when you think you see something wrong. There is a big difference between those who are set on "convincing" others as opposed to those who are giving their opinion to the collective for investigation and debate which should be the natural course in a free society.
speaking on fear of not saying something, it's shocking how many people say, "you shouldn't say that, they'll watch you for saying that" When nothing sinister was ever actually said. When I hear people say that, I do think about how many might be questioning shit but afraid to speak their minds because we're now living in a society where they want you to know they're watching what you read, what you say, who you talk to, where you spend your money and where you're going.
Oh I agree, but I get the feeling that if one questions the mainstream info on these events, that there is a general uneasiness and speculation as to whom your allegiance is too. The truth is, dissent, or in this case ''investigation'' really is the highest form form of patriotism.

Here's a good one to ask questions about. We all know for a fact that the government watches sites like facebook and youtube like a hawk! That's been well established many times for quite a while.
Now we have some dude who's traveling to areas of Russia with terrorist problems and posting terrorist related shit on youtube and having Russia contact the FBI over and we're supposed to believe he wasn't being watched by the government because they did a quick search and couldn't find anything in 2011?
yea... BWHAHAhahahahaha.... How fucking stupid are they asking me to be on that?
I guess that of majority since very few people seem to be questioning it, which could be out of fear of being ridiculed or put on a ''terrorist list''

Imagine if you are innocent and the FBI is putting up your image like that. What the fuck do you do? Now every vigilante wants to kill you, yet you haven't done anything wrong. You go to the cops and they will rough you up or even worse torture you for info. I guess you just call a lawyer who is willing to help and let him deal with it.
You can be sure that you will NOT be taken alive.

The triad thesis, antithesis, synthesis is often used to describe the thought of German philosopher Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel. Hegel never used the term himself, and almost all of his biographers have been eager to discredit it.
The triad is usually described in the following way: The thesis is an intellectual proposition. The antithesis is simply the negation of the thesis, a reaction to the proposition. The synthesis solves the conflict between the thesis and antithesis by reconciling their common truths and forming a new thesis, starting the process over.
According to Walter Kaufmann, although the triad is often[1] thought to form part of an analysis of historical and philosophical progress called the Hegelian dialectic, the assumption is erroneous. Hegel used this classification only once, and he attributed the terminology to Immanuel Kant. The terminology was largely developed earlier by the neo-Kantian Johann Gottlieb Fichte, also an advocate of the philosophy identified as German idealism.
The triad is often said to have been extended and adopted by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, however, Marx referred to them in The Poverty of Philosophy as speaking Greek and "Wooden trichotomies".

"Whoever looks for the stereotype of the allegedly Hegelian dialectic in Hegel's Phenomenology will not find it. What one does find on looking at the table of contents is a very decided preference for triadic arrangements. ... But these many triads are not presented or deduced by Hegel as so many theses, antitheses, and syntheses. It is not by means of any dialectic of that sort that his thought moves up the ladder to absolute knowledge."

uh huh....  Just now by Tom Brokaw: "...Beginning tomorrow, EARLY, there are going to be security considerations all across the country. However exhausted we may be by them, we're going to have to live with and get along and go forward and not let them bring us to our knees"I doubt he thought of this all on his own. You're being prepped for what they're about to do and you're to go along with it and not let it get you down.  Don't worry, there will be plenty of companies profiting off of you being stopped and scanned on the way to thanksgiving dinner lol... DHS-TSA drinking champagne tonight no doubt... If not them, those with or seeking contracts with them. mr.Chavez is wise.

My kid A. Woulndt be on facebook anymore B. Wouldnt be on the internet anymore C. Wouldnt have a camera anymore D. Would be grounded until he was 18 for doing something so stupid, especially after i would have been telling him precisely not to do this kind of dumb shit
I agree, your kid is fortunate to have a father like you, Amanda was not as lucky.

Haha, another pathetically brutal leap of logic on your part. The whore i railed (admittedly) started at 14, and she was 30 guys deep by the time i got there when she was 19.
But epic job trying desperatley to find any way you can to attack me because you cant handle the fact that youre acting like a menopausal woman, crying like bitch because someone doesnt feel bad that some chick offed herself over her own actions.
Shock, dont you have a child on the way? imagine if some 30 year old cyberbully pedo was tormenting your son or daughter. This shit is more common then you think and trying to keep your kid off facebook today is probably easier said then done.

The Vancouver area man who was named by the hacker group Anonymous as being Amanda Todd’s tormenter denied the allegations and pointed the finger to another online figure, Viper.
Today Anonymous released detailed online records for Viper, including a profile on an online website known for sharing child pornography.
The records, similar to one released earlier this week by Anonymous linked to another online profile, Kody1206, document a dark side of the Internet, where anonymous cybersurfers capture sexualized images and video of underage youth, sharing them in forums and on websites and seeing their creations lauded in mocking online awards, the “Capper Awards.”
Meanwhile, as the bullying that Amanda endured during her life continues after her death with viscous and vitriolic statements appearing online, a London, Ontario man has lost his job for mocking the dead teen on a memorial page set up in her memory. Amanda, who was 15, died last week, an apparent suicide, after months and years of online stalking and harassment that spilled over into school yard bullying.
In this story, Justin Hutchings told the Toronto Star that he wanted to “stir up the pot,” when he posted: “Thank God this b—- is dead,”
A Calgary mom reported the posting to Hutchings’ employer.
According to the Toronto Star story, the employer, Grafton-Fraser, parent company of Mr. Big & Tall Menswear, had this comment:
“Our company ethics are based on tolerance, respect and fair and honourable treatment of all individuals, internally, with our customers and the population as a whole,” said Kamy Scarlett, senior vice-president store operations and corporate human resources at Grafton-Fraser Inc., parent company of Mr. Big & Tall Menswear.
On Facebook, a page entitled Bullying Awareness and run by the “Amanda Todd reporting team” is urging Facebook users to report online abuse and cyberbullying.
In one post on the site, the moderators called on one company to remove advertising from what it said was “one of the offending pages.” The site is a Facebook page, a site with 126 members in the group that is clearly aimed a denigrating Amanda Todd’s memory. All the members of the group are identified by their Facebook profiles, although it is entirely possible some of the profiles are bogus — or created to hide the real identity of the person behind them.
Readers have pointed out auto-generated ads on other web sites, ones hosting child pornography. In a letter to one company whose ad appeared on such a site, a reader – who sent me a copy - wrote:
” The purpose of this email is to make your company aware of about the location of an internet banner ad on a very inappropriate website that should be a concern to your organization.
“…The reason for my email as noted above is that in the course of my research I found a website that helps people create their own ‘meme’ whatever that actually is. I have to say I was disturbed and shocked by what I saw on this site, I was in absolute shock when I saw a banner ad for your company (see attached image, please note that I purposely blocked out part of the images to ensure that I was not in fact sending through child pornography as the photo of this girl was taken when she was 14.”
In a response to that email, the company promised to have the ad removed: “Thank you very much for taking the time to send this email, we are currently investing how our ad ended up on a site with this type of content and in the process of having it removed.”

The drug companies, today, are one of the many scourges on planet Earth.
The FDA is supposed to define what a "disease" is. And the FDA has mandated that only "drugs" can treat "diseases".
You can see the math doesn't work if you want to keep profits growing. There aren't that many new diseases being found everyday. Furthermore, a lot of those are real hard to fix with drugs. So what do you do? Invest in research in "gray areas" of disorders and "issues" that aren't diseases, and hope for a drug that works.
Then, take your oodles of cash, lobby the FDA to re-classify a normal human disorder or behavior as a "disease". Then, unleash all of hell's hounds (the marketing team) to canvass the market (teachers, doctors, psychologists, politicians, leaders, media, everyone...) on this new incurable disease that, hallelujuah, has been cured by this miracle drug from Company X.
Thank god for the drug companies for saving us from all these rampant, horrible diseases.
We joke, but does anyone here really think erectile dysfunction is a disease? Or, is it more likely that some lab rat stumbled upon a cGMP phosphodiesterase inhibitor in a lab. And some smarter lab rat said "hey, that could improve blood flow which would be good for someone with heart disease". And then a wizard marketer said "Hold on, we can't compete with Lipitor. They have that market locked up and these old geezers don't want another heart pill. And we won't make much money from it...too much competition and market clutter. But you know what? Tons of old men (and there's more of these boomers getting older everyday) can't get boners. You think this crazy little pill can give old men hard-ons? Because if it can, our stock price will soar. Oh, what's that you say...it can give an old man a boner? Great...ok, Roy, call up the FDA. Tell them bonerless old men have a disease. Come up with some neat new name for it...yeah, 'erectile dysfunction'...I like that. Show it to the focus groups. See what the 55+ demographic says. And tell Young and Rubicam to get working on the TV spot. See if Bob Dole needs work..."
And there we have the way America creates a disease. And now you understand how the very companies you invest in medicate you into a euphoric state, and why the government sits idly by and lets corporate america bully you into submission. You don't stand a chance. All you have is your intelligence and ability to see behind the lies.
I still like capitalism. And I still like "buyer beware". But I also like intelligent people who know when they're being lied to.
On point, most parents don't. They work two jobs, are over-saturated with media messages, are so confused about how to parent with all these "how-to" books, and Oprah and The View and 60 Minutes. They get beaten over the head at work until they break for a shitty paycheck, only to come home completely exhausted. And all they want is a better life for their kid...a life that isn't as shitty as theirs. Only problem is, the capitalist machine is relentless, and isn't discriminatory. Rather, perhaps it is...it goes naturally for the easiest money. Easy money can found preying on the weak...the simpletons, the children, the idiots. Opiate the masses, and you control them. Get to the kids. When that doesn't work, scare the shit out of the parents...make them believe their kid isn't on the track to avoiding the life mom and dad have to deal with...but that a little pill can fix it all. This overwhelmed, over-worked, stupid parent who's kids are being overwhelmed by society, are frankly, beyond salvation. It's a wonder they survive, and really, is there any hope for them?
Step back from the rat race folks. Parent your children. You don't need a higher household family income. You don't need that 80-hour per week job to buy shit you don't need on credit cards you can't afford to pay off. You don't need the newest Audi, or the newest Sony, or the newest Channel #5. You don't need to keep up with Jones and his new boat down at the Marina. You need to be a human being. You need to raise good kids, and love them, and be there for them. Be cognizant of the fact that the voices surrounding your children are never-ending, and ever-searching for a weakness. You must protect them from all predators, and these are forms of predation. You can't just turn your kids over to these wolves with your laissez faire parenting. Grow a fucking set!
You let the state raise your kids, then why do the kids need you? Welcome to the matrix.
fkn great post man!
