As this world turns, each of us faces extraordinary challenges, ordeals, emotional pain, trauma, loss of loved ones and disappointments during our lives.  It goes with the territory of living.  Even at this point with a virus raging around the planet, we need to hold on to “hope.”

At the same time, we have BLM and Antifa anarchists attempting to not only break out country into chaos, but to turn it into a Marxist-Socialist nightmare where force and power supersede law and order.

We’ve got Somalian immigrants in Minnesota declaring:  “Suud Olat, a Somali Muslim, who is running as a democrat in a special election for the Minneapolis City council to represent Ward 6 said, “We Somali Muslims are going to take over!”

They’ve already taken over Detroit, Michigan, Miami, Florida and New York City.  These people mean business and they will take whatever opportunities to engage our U.S. Constitution against us.  As their numbers grow, their power grows along with it.  As that power grows, our country fractures into tribal groups, races and cultural conflict.  All the while MOST Americans don’t possess a clue as to what’s really happening in those Muslim enclaves.  It’s a guaranteed fact that none of those Muslims work for the best interests of America or Americans.  Why? Because they are most certainly NOT Americans or ever want to be! Their religion stands as THE most malignant virus in the world because it cannot be dislodged from their brains or emotions.  Its single mandate:  “Convert or kill all non-believers.” (Quran)

The fact remains: our U.S. Congress continues importing 1.5 million legal and illegal immigrants annually.  Around 2050, we’ll see 100 million more immigrants and their offspring changing the entire culture and majority race in this country to make us a nation of minorities from around the world.  If you don’t think we face a seriously conflicted future, you’re not paying attention.

I remember vividly when Andy Dufresne (Tim Robbins) the lead character in the “Shawshank Redemption” sat in the corner of the prison yard with his friend (Red) Morgan Freeman discussing how Andy got swindled into prison by another man’s deeds.  As they sat there, Andy gave instructions to Morgan Freeman to look him up at his hotel on a beach in Mexico as he worked on an old boat getting it ready for charter fishing for his guests.

The only problem: Andy faced life in prison for ‘killing’ his wife, which, of course, he didn’t do the deed.  And the prison warden held Andy into a stranglehold of his life.  There was no chance for escape to a free life.  But for Andy, “hope” made anything possible.  Andy uttered these iconic words, “It’s time to get busy livin’ or get busy dyin’.”  With that statement, he decided to get busy living.

Later, Andy dug his way out of prison, and with brilliance, walked into the banks in Portland, Maine to claim his accrued money that he surreptitiously purloined off the warden as the warden was scamming his slave prison labor.  He outsmarted the warden via the U.S. mail, crawled to freedom and skipped into Mexico. He left evidence of the warden’s evil deeds with the newspaper. The warden committed suicide as the cops came to lock him up.  Morgan Freeman reunited with his friend Andy in Mexico to show that Karma works.  Stephen King’s iconic book and movie will be seen 100 years from now by adoring audiences.  It epitomizes our struggles out of the darkness into the light.

At the same time, each of us enjoys the choices of creative thought, actions and deeds.  Since I have stood astride my bicycle for over 65 years, there’s a deep-seated joy in my soul.  From my Schwinn Wasp and my paper route in my teen years to my fancy road bikes, to my sturdy touring bikes, I’ve enjoyed great energy, tremendous joy and soulful fulfillment via touring around the world on my bicycle.

The one thing about riding a bicycle, especially a touring bicycle, it calls for your best integrity, your true grit that comes from your sterling character.

I am reminded of the great Roman philosopher Epictetus who said, “Tentative efforts lead to tentative outcomes. Therefore, give yourself fully to your endeavors. Decide to construct your character through excellent actions and determine to pay the price of a worthy goal.  The trials you encounter will introduce you to your strengths.  Remain steadfast…and one day, you will build something that endures; something worthy of your potential.”

During this tenuous period in the United States, Canada, Europe and the world, let’s all pull together, do our part, build our bodies, strengthen our minds and practice compassion.  Let’s let our actions, our minds and spirits triumph individually and collectively.  May the God bless each and every one of us.

What’s Coming To America Ain’t Pretty

On a very discouraging and disturbing note, in the coming weeks, I am going to write a series that will rock your world, frighten you and make you very distressed about your children’s future. If you’re alive from 2040 to 2050, you’re going to be in the middle of a political, racial, economic and cultural maelstrom that toppled Rome, Spain, Persia and is now toppling Europe, Canada and ourselves.  The series title:  Can America Survive the Next 100 Million Immigrants?  This series will deal with every aspect of your life and that of your children’s lives being impacted by this modern-day invasion.  You might say our leaders are “self-terminating” our country. My goal: to create a national conversation-debate about what we face and how to change course.

At this point, we possess the power to change course. But, if we wait another 10 years, we won’t be able to save ourselves.  If you think we’re fractured and fragmented in 2020, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet.

If we don’t change course, I guarantee you the future for your children is screwed beyond anything you can imagine.  Are you buckled up because it’s going to be a very rough ride?  If you can’t see what’s coming, this series will spell it out for you.

As it’s been said, “May the road rise up to meet you, may the wind be ever at your back. May the sunshine warm upon your face and the rain fall softly on your fields. And until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of his hand.”

Be well for yourself and your family.

The mayor of Portland, Oregon, Ted Wheeler, for the past 46 days, watched and supported Antifa and Black Lives Matter anarchists, burn and loot his city.  In the past two days, those criminals attempted to burn and loot the county courthouse.  When President Trump sent in federal agents to defend the city, Mr. Wheeler condemned the president for bringing law and order to Portland. Go figure!

Seattle, Washington’s Mayor Jenny Durkan encouraged and supported Antifa and BLM anarchists to burn and loot that city, and create an ‘autonomous zone’ whereby two people suffered death via shootings. She called it, “A summer of love in our city.”

One look at Minneapolis, Minnesota shows a total war zone. All of it allowed by the mayor and governor of that state!  As those anarchists destroyed the city, their City Council members voted to disband the police department in order to encourage more criminal destruction of that city.  And, that’s what they received—more crime and more destruction.

At this point, New York City’s Mayor Bill de Blasio has “defunded the police department” by $1 billion.  If you drove down 5^th Avenue or into Manhattan, you would see boarded up businesses, smashed glass, spray paint by the hundreds of gallons decorating everything.  Instead of the “Big Apple”, NYC stands as a prime example of a rotten, decayed and worthless fruit.  Gun shootings doubled in the past six weeks.

This year, Mayor Lori Lightfoot of Chicago has seen nightly gun shootings in her city.  She’s seen BLM loot, burn, rob and kill people.  Chicago faces a “Detroit, Michigan” future.  A recent NBC report showed 1,500-gun shootings in Chicago with 373 killed thus far in 2020.  Experts expect the total to exceed 800 to set a new record this year.  In Baltimore, 900 shootings this year and 134 deaths.

In McAllen, Texas, two days ago, a 23-year-old gunned down two police officers answering a domestic abuse charge.  They walked up to the door, knocked on the door, and the guy shot them point blank numerous times.

In other words, U.S. soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan enjoy greater safety than American citizens in those violent cities.

In Denver, Colorado, our Mayor Michael Hancock supports illegal aliens in his sanctuary city.  He supports violators of our state and federal laws.  Right on his heels, our Governor Jared Polis also supports our state as a sanctuary for illegal aliens, numbering over 400,000.  They bring drugs, gangs, MS 13, anchor babies, and chaos to our city.  Yet, those elected officials enjoy total immunity from the law.

The prime example of lawlessness and lawless leaders must be the former mayor of Detroit, Michigan, Mr. Coleman Young.  I worked in Detroit for 20 years to watch him and his cronies destroy that city block by block, carjacking by carjacking, business by business, school after school—until 1.2 million Detroiters fled the city. It dropped from 1.85 million to 650,000 today.  What did the federal government do? Congress imported 300,000 Muslims who now enjoy welfare for life, their own caliphate, honor killings, FGM, and a totally separate, parallel society that lacks anything in common or affinity to America. You won’t see a single American flag flown in our new Dearbornistan, Michigan.

With somewhere between 3 and 4 million illegal migrants now living and working in California, Governor Gavin Newsome celebrates their illegality in his sanctuary state, along with House Members Maxine Waters and Nancy Pelosi.  In other words, the corruption knows no end.  The venality runs as deep as the Mariana Trench in the Pacific Ocean, i.e., 7 miles deep!  All the while, never mind that 70,000 American citizens and Veterans live in tarp cities on the streets of San Francisco and Los Angeles.

In reality, all those mayors and governors violate their oaths of office.  They enable criminals. They are complicit in lawlessness and total disregard for our U.S. Constitution and the rule of law.

It’s depressing.  It’s disheartening.  It’s terrible.  It’s what’s driving our country to become like those other third world countries.

At the same time, the majority White population in America is being attacked, degraded and marginalized in favor of BLM and Antifa.

One of my readers said, “I’ve recently drawn the conclusion that ‘white privilege’ is simply a pejorative term for Western Civilization and American Exceptionalism.”

To all the supporters of BLM and/or Antifa, please understand they do not stand for the ‘rule of law’ or the ‘U.S. Constitution’ or the ‘Bill of Rights’ or ‘Free speech’.  If they burned and looted our country to death and total destruction, they have nothing to offer that would create a better future.  It’s pretty disconcerting to this American Patriot.

At least one good thing occurred in my neighborhood this past week. On my daily bicycle ride in these mountains, near sunset, I passed by Exit 254 on I-70, 35 miles west of Denver. On the bridge overlooking both eastbound and westbound lanes, two dozen kids and parents waved Old Glory.  Thousands of motorists, truck drivers and motorcyclists honked, waved and celebrated that someone stood for our flag, our country, our culture, our laws, and our incredible gifts to be American citizens.

(Kids celebrating America, July 14, 2020, Exit 254, Westbound, I-70, Golden, Colorado)

I don’t care if you are black, white, brown, yellow or red—this is your country.  Don’t you think we need to cherish it, preserve it and care for it for future generations?

For some reason in the summer of 2020, every White person in America seems to be the cause of every person of color’s misfortunes.  After one, single, solitary police officer kneed a convicted felon, wife abuser, drug addict, forged money launderer and local porno star George Floyd—the rest of America stands guilty of every sin since Cain murdered Abel.  Every cop stands guilty of everything anyone wants to charge against him or her.

Every White person must assume “White Guilt”, “Systemic Racism”, and “Racial Prejudice.”  Every White person must atone for the sins of the past.

Black Lives Matter wants to burn down every store, every community and every police department in America.  Its partner in anarchy, Antifa, wants to destroy the foundation of law and order in America. These two groups represent 21^st century hoodlums, vandals and killers.

If they succeed, our country would resemble Sudan, Congo and Somalia’s current state of war and chaos, which has been their hallmark for generations.  Notice those countries’ are run by “Black Privilege.” Notice they’re illiterate, starving, overpopulated, suffer constant conflict and endless hopelessness.

Here is a video of “White Privilege” that needs to be examined: Buddy Brown explains “White Privilege.”

The irony of this prejudice against White people in America stems from the fact that at 100, 300, 400 million and more, people of color would move to America tomorrow if given a plane ticket.  As Buddy Brown said, “My White privilege came from hard work.”

Well, for anyone reading this column, I grew up using an outhouse until I was seven years old. I started working by age 11.  I picked cucumbers at 2 cents a bushel. I cut hay on a 1949 B John Deere tractor from dawn to dusk. I busted my ass baling hay, running corn silage, and busting 60-pound bales of hay into the barn.  I’ve shoveled more cow manure, chicken crap and pig shit than any inner-city kid ever dreamed about.  I worked my way through high school and college.  I served in the Army. I became a teacher.  I quit teaching because of the horrible wages and became a long-haul truck driver for United Van Lines.  Few jobs equal the brutal hard work of moving furniture 70 to 90 hours a week. After all that work, I’ve written and published 15 books, which was always my goal since my youth.  If you think writing a book is easy—try it! I labor daily on my “keyboard salt mine.”  My 15^th book published this month:  Zen Between Two Bicycle Wheels: Eat, Pedal, Sleep. On Amazon. As Buddy Brown stated, you get to reach your dreams through HARD WORK!  That’s my “White Privilege” history!

Yes, this country stands at 90 percent White people and 10 percent Black people.  It’s a fact that Black Americans enjoy the HIGHEST standard of living in the world. Blacks in America, as told by Buddy Brown, enjoy every ‘edge’ for successful lives.  There are more Black millionaires in America than the rest of the world.  More Black sports heroes enjoy more acclaim than anywhere else in the world. More Blacks enjoy college educations and endless opportunities than the rest of the world combined. To be Black in White America remains one of the best gifts imaginable when you look at what’s going in Africa where millions starve to death and die of AIDES.  Anyone ever heard of “Black Privilege”?  I can name you 30 off the top of my head: BET, WIC, ADC, Miss Black America, Blackish on TV, affirmative action, African-American studies, Maxine Waters, quotas, all Black colleges, Oprah, NBA, NFL, EBT cards for unlimited food, Section 8 Housing, free breakfasts and lunches for inner city kids, medical care, SS, anchor babies, ESL and the list goes on and on.

As to the ones in the inner cities, it’s a choice that 60-70 percent of them quit school and join gangs, or remain burger flippers for their lives. Their financial mobility usually ends up in prison.  It’s a choice that 7 out of 10 Black teens get pregnant to end up as single mothers on their “forever trajectory” on welfare paid for by the rest of us who work for a living, obey the law and live civil lives.  All 1 million Blacks in prison chose to break the law. They knew their choices and they took them.

At the same time, I celebrate all Black Americans who remain in school, earn a diploma, obtain a job and work toward their dreams.  I’ve worked with African-Americans all my life in college, in the military, in the hospital, in school and in moving furniture in 48 states.  I’ve respected every single person of every color my entire life.

Does that make me guilty of bias, prejudice, systemic racism, White guilt or White privilege?

What’s my point?  I’ll bet that 99 percent of the White people reading this commentary can say the same thing as to their honorable treatment of Black people and all other Americans of color.  Additionally, we must stop the violence and stupidities of Black Lives Matter and Antifa.  I want those terrorists arrested, prosecuted and jailed.

Yes, we need to fix a few things, and we will, but the fact remains, we are the first country in the world to abolish slavery.  Please note that slavery has encompassed blacks, whites, browns, yellows and every major civilization since the dawn of time. It still goes on today in Africa and the middle east.  We enjoy a Constitution that allows us to move forward peacefully rather the violence now being perpetrated across our country in the past two months.

What can you do?  Can you call your two U.S. Senators and House member and demand they work toward law and order?  Demand that the FBI track down those anarchists and arrest them.  Can you demand that your governor and mayor of your city and state get off their butts and administer the “rule of law” in order to protect businesses and police departments?  Can you support your police because 99 percent of them are decent, good and responsible men and women?  Can you get on Social Media and demand your local and statewide leaders stand their ground against BLM and Antifa?

Because if you don’t, our country faces some nasty outcomes in the current  climate of violence and anarchy.

What separates American culture from say…Somalian culture?  Answer: the rule of law.  What separates American culture from say…Chinese culture?  Answer:  your 1^st Amendment rights.   What makes American culture work for all races as opposed to Saudi Arabia?  Answer: free choice of religion, dress and political pick.  What separates American culture from the misery of Mexican culture?  Answer:  over 15 million Mexicans vacated their failing country to illegally enjoy the opportunities of American culture.

In the past two months, Black Lives Matter advocates issued some really nasty statements about America culture.  Yusra Khogali, co-founder of BLM said, “Whites are sub-human genetic defects.”  She demands that Americans “Defund police departments” across this country.  She chooses insurrection against the U.S. Constitution over the rule of law.  Every ‘right’ she denounces stems from that document, but she wants to destroy it in order to bring about another culture such as Somalia, Sudan, Congo or Ethiopia.  Please note that those countries wallow in misery, poverty, illiteracy, starvation, rapes, murders and mayhem for virtually all their citizens.

The “Cancel Culture” movement celebrated by liberals wants to degrade America’s culture to bring it in line with say…India, Indonesia, Morocco, Pakistan, Bangladesh and/or any other failed states in the world.  In other words, no rule of law applies to leaders or citizens of those countries.  It’s sheer, brute power in those countries.

Ironically, over 1,400 Black on Black murders manifested in Chicago, Washington DC, Atlanta and Baltimore in 2019.  African-American mayors dominate those cities, but spoke not a word over that many killings that have been going on year after year.  But with one police officer killing of George Floyd, now it’s America’s ‘culture’ that must be cancelled.

As to Chicago, a city where I worked in the 1980’s and 1990’s,  U.S. Senator John Kennedy (R-LA) said, “Chicago is now the largest outdoor shooting range in America.”  Reporters call it “Chi-raq” because more Black people have been killed in the streets of the city than soldiers in Iraq.  On any given weekend, from 50 to 114 shootings occur with over a dozen deaths, some of them children.  Can African-American Mayor Lori Lightfoot stop the violence?  No!  Instead, she wants to defund the police.

In the past month, Mayor Bill De Blasio of NYC decided to cut his police department by $1 billion.  Because the police and National Guard could not stop the looting and burnings in the past month from BLM and Antifa anarchists, the Big Apple faces total economic breakdown.  Yet, he celebrates “Cancel American Culture.”

Right now, in this country, Antifa filled with zealot anarchists wants to burn down America and then, well, replace it with their style of lawlessness, which as you know, means no law and order.

Can we compare the kind of civilization and culture created in America by the U.S. Constitution with any culture and country in Africa, Iraq, Pakistan, China or India?  Which country would you choose to live your life?  Which country would afford you the ability to become educated, with free choice of job and choice of your life path?  Good luck with that!

Right now, in America the “Thin Blue Line” of law enforcement keeps us just one step ahead of all those countries in Africa.  While a certain percentage of African-Americans curse their existence in America, you will not see a single one of them migrating back to their home continent.  In fact, over 1.5 million immigrants pour into our country annually, year after year, decade after decade.

While you see BLM tearing down monuments to the past, you won’t see them building monuments to the future.  They seem to be in a blind rage over their own historical culture of violence which manifests daily in Africa and other third world countries.

While you see a semi-literate LeBron James making millions, but advocating racism and/or a Colin Kaepernick calling all white people racists—you won’t see either man migrating back to their home continent.

In other words, American culture promotes the most personal opportunities for every race, creed and color on this planet.  It is the most culturally diverse system and the very best that humanity has seen in the bloody history of the human journey.

Yes, the 1^st Amendment encourages free expression. And, at times, it’s a messy business to be able to speak your mind.  But would LeBron James or Kaepernick choose Somalia as a choice for home? Because that’s their roots!  Would BLM like to burn and loot in the Congo or Sudan to advocate for equal rights?   First of all, they would be starving to death from lack of food.

At some point, we Americans need to instill in our youth, especially our minorities, the fact that they live in the healthiest, cleanest, with the most personal freedom and politically creative “culture” on this planet.  In other words, it doesn’t get any better than the United States of America.  If a person wants to gripe, instead of burning down the past or looting against the future—try organizing a group of like-thinking persons and change the monuments peacefully.  Stay in school to educate yourself so you won’t become a felon, drug addict, woman abuser and porno star like the late George Floyd.

Instead of growing up illiterate, stay in school to educate yourself and become a meaningful contributor to American culture and society.  It’s a whole lot better to become a UPS or Fed-Ex driver than a felon.  It’s much better to become a sports star who stands up for Old Glory rather than stomping on our national flag.  It’s so much better to get married and come home to your kids and family rather than inhaling or injecting drugs on a street corner.

This is America. You’ve got choices much better than BLM or Antifa. How about taking your anger out by building up America rather than tearing her down?

Does this sound like a better plan?  Can we educate our kids toward a more positive future?  Can we change toward an “American Future” rather than a BLM or Antifa future?  Anybody want to support law enforcement across America rather than “Cancel our culture”?

At 80 years of age, suffering from onset dementia, and one of the richest House of Representative members, Nancy Pelosi’s ‘forever career’ in Washington DC spans three decades beyond comprehension.  Her wealth surpasses $124 million dollars.  Her power to impeach any president she wishes extends beyond understanding.  She continues as one of the most corrupt members of the U.S. House of Representatives.

She stands as one of the single greatest mandates for “Term Limits.”  She’s too old, stumbles through the day and possesses no understanding of what’s happening in the streets, towns and cities of America.

On weekends, she enjoys a private military jet flying her back to her mansion in California on your dime, but it’s not a ‘dime’; it’s millions of dollars over the decades to serve her ‘highness’ in the manner to which she is accustomed.

Her support of the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars for 19 years, while accomplishing nothing, has made her a fortune with insider trading on defense contracts that keep the money accruing in her bank accounts.  Steve Croft of “60 Minutes” caught her in a lie many years ago as to her insider trading on defense contracts.  She dismissed him and “60 Minutes” didn’t pursue her skullduggery.  She lives in mansions while her 70,000 homeless constituents in California live in tents on the streets of San Francisco and Los Angeles.

While our borders remain open to drug cartels dispensing their deadly products to our young, she sips tea with world leaders.  While she makes certain our main law, US Code 8, Section 1324, which calls for a $2,000.00 fine and up to five years in prison for each illegal alien hired, housed or transported—she accepts any and all ‘gifts’ to make sure the Yale Report of 2018 of 23 to 25 million illegal aliens living and working within the United States—will not be deported.  She supported DACA which is unconstitutional.  She makes sure the American taxpayer pays for all those migrants as to education, EBT cards, Section 8 Housing, medical care and maternity care—all on your wallet.

In her in excess of three decades in Congress, she has never advanced a bill to stop the average of 300,000 ‘anchor babies’ annually from tapping into your wallet to pay for all those babies birthed on our shores by pregnant illegal migrant women.  Can you imagine how much into the hundreds of billions of dollars it has cost you over the past three decades?

She supported shifting our entire manufacturing base over to China which we now owe in excess of $1.5 trillion.  We lose trillions of dollars in ‘free trade’ that is in reality, ‘unfair trade’ that benefits the Chinese, Indians, Mexicans and every other country, but America and our people.

Her children serve on the board of directors of major oil companies and the like for enormous amounts of money that they never earned or were qualified: but mommy’s name carries a lot of weight.

At a news conference where she spoke to Mexican illegal migrants who had jumped our borders, she said, “These are our future Americans.”  All the while, she welcomes illegal aliens numbering over 4,000,000 into her state of California.  She gifts them K-12, free college tuition, affirmative action jobs, helps them maintain their drug distribution networks, aids MS 13 and generally allows them to destroy all educational excellence for legal children of American parents in California.  At the same time, those illegals send $120 billion annually in cash transfers back to their countries. Thus, bleeding America of much needed financial strength.

What confounds the life out of me: why do the people of her district keep voting her into office?  Answer: they vote for the ones that give them the most freebees.  It’s called legal graft, legal aid, legal welfare, legal anything that keeps her in power.

She supported the Mueller Report that possessed no foundation of guilt in President Trump. She wasted millions of dollars and ran that drama out for two years when it should have been finished in three months.  She brought impeachment against Trump when she knew he would never be convicted.  She’s given us a $25 trillion national debt with no way to pay for it until our economic system simply collapses.

Beyond her working with other con-artists in Congress, while manipulating our system and eyeball deep in corruption, I’ve only scratched the surface with this report.

We need a president, Senate Majority leader and enough Americans to demand “Term Limits” for all members of Congress. Maximum of 10 years, period.  They serve long enough to make experienced decisions and bring creative solutions, but short enough to stop the long-term corruption now deeply imbedded in Congress.

How do we get rid of dead weight House and Senate members like Maxine Waters (D-CA) who has done nothing to further America in her ‘forever’ corrupt career as a politician? That includes John Lewis (D-GA); Hank Johnson (D-GA),  Charles Schumer (D-NY), Sheila Jackson (D-CA) and dozens of other dead weight republicans and democrats siphoning off the American taxpayer.

What have you done as a registered voter to bring about “Term Limits” to our U.S. Congress?  Do you possess any other ideas on how to bring integrity to our elected officials?

As a kid, I grew up mostly with “Andy of Mayberry”; “Father Knows Best” ; “My Three Sons” ;  “Mr. Wilson” ; “Adam 12” and “Captain Kangaroo.”  I pledged my allegiance to Old Glory, sang the Star-Spangled Banner, prayed before each meal giving thanks for my food and attended church on Sundays.  I treated everyone of different colors and faces with respect and integrity.

My siblings and I discovered that we lived in a great country where everyone enjoyed freedom of speech, job choices, higher education and spouses of our own choosing.  My dad said, “Always tell the truth, pick up after yourself and earn your keep.”

How in a very short 30 years has our country’s parents spawned America-hating 20-somethings of every color that terrorize our cities with looting, burnings, killings and outright anarchy? How do they get away with defying the police?  In the most abundant and free civilization on this planet, how did a bunch of thugs from Black Lives Matter and Antifa mangle the ‘rule of law’ as to destroying billions of dollars of property, looting stores and tearing down our historical monuments?

How and why did prominent mayors from major cities in America abdicate their oaths of office to allow anarchy to descend on law-abiding, taxpaying citizens?  The mayors of Minneapolis, Seattle, NYC and others are a bunch of incompetent weasels.  You cannot placate anarchists!  They build nothing. They destroy everything. They need to be jailed.

As this event plays out, we need police, FBI and CIA of every caliber to track down, arrest and prosecute every one of these internal terrorists.  Each one of them needs a severe lesson in citizenship.  Every single one of those terrorists in Minneapolis, Chicago, NYC, Denver, LA, Seattle and in all looted cities needs to be tracked down with video footage and made to pay the price of their terrorism.

First of all, this is our country. We built it. We defended it. We pay for it. We love it. And, we need to preserve it.  I’ll bet that everyone reading this column agrees with a reader who shared his views with me and gave permission to republish his thoughts:

Dear Frosty,

These are very strange and trying times and the following will sound inciteful, but it is reality.  As we approach Independence Day, possibly Americans need to wake up to a reality check.

The rats (dubbed the “deep state” a.k.a. Democrat Party) entrenched themselves in the government and country.   They opened borders and flooded every community of the nation with drugs and troublemakers.  They outsourced our jobs and manufacturing to our enemies for a few pieces of gold. [Notice House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is a mega-millionaire because of insider trading on defense contracts.]

The enemy has been invited past the gates by a few Communist traitors.  They adopted the motto “by whatever means necessary” to change the government of the people to a government that controls the people.  However, what the Communists fail to realize is that their motto goes both ways. Its time, as Americans, to apply the same motto back at them – i.e. fight back.

The Democrat/Communist Party is the enemy of the U.S.A. and freedom.  They are using U.S. laws and the Constitutional against citizens to undermine and destroy the country.  An example of this just occurred recently in St. Louis.  If you defend yourself and your home against looting criminals you will be charged as a criminal by a Black Communist Attorney and the real CRIMINALS will not – see what is now occurring to the couple in St. Louis).  What will you do if it is your home next?

The George Floyd riots were the vehicle used to start the removal of police from the nation.  The communists are looting and burning and destroying historic monuments with impunity.  They are not afraid to break our laws to destroy America. It is time to defend the country and restore law and order.  Politicians are terrified to do anything.

All Obama/Soros/Clinton must be removed from this country by “whatever means necessary”.  If a criminal enters your home you have the right to defend yourself, family, and property.

America is OUR home and we have the Constitutional obligation as American citizens to defend her against enemies foreign and domestic.

If the Democrat Party is pushing for Police Departments to be “defunded”, then it’s time for American citizens to form community militias to defend themselves and demand that the Democrat Party be removed from their country – “By whatever means necessary”.

Those persons and corporations funding this behind the curtain need to be deported or imprisoned for attempting to undermine the government of the U.S.A. The last time I checked American citizens were still the MAJORITY.

Are you a citizen American ready to fight for your country?

I’ve known this American from Chicago for two decades. He always gives me excellent feedback on my columns.  He asked the question: are you ready to fight for your country?  What are you doing to stop internal terrorists?  Have you been writing, calling and admonishing your elected representatives? How about your newspapers and local TV shows with feedback?  Have you sat by hoping it will go away?  Do you understand that it won’t go away by wishing it were so?

Please get on your computer, get on the phone,  call your mayors, senators, governors and give them a piece of your mind.  This is your country; care for it; defend it; love it and maintain it.

Anarchists, Antifa fanatics and Black Lives Matter rioters want to destroy Mount Rushmore, Lincoln Memorial and the Thomas Jefferson Memorial…precisely the men who gave every person of any race the most abundant and opportunity-filled life on this planet: The United States of America.

Anyone want to return to the “rule of law” that allows all of us of every skin color, religion and language, to live decent, ethical and moral lives?

At this point, Minneapolis, Minnesota slides into the morass of a burned out, looted and crime-ridden repeat of Detroit, Michigan.  Chicago has become the new “Murder Capitol of America.” Two weekends ago, 114 minority members shot 114 other minority members and killed 14.  Does anybody want to see that kind of mayhem in their cities?

Yet, the Minneapolis city council members voted to shut down their police department.  How do you think that worked out in Detroit?  Answer: it’s the perfect solution for destroying any semblance of a civilized society.

If the mayor of Seattle, Washington thinks thugs, anarchists and Antifa want to bring a “Summer of Love” into her streets, she’s in for a rude awakening. Already, one killed and another wounded in her “CHOP” section of downtown!

Tearing Down the Past Ensure Ripping Up Our Future

If we allow this current generation of naïve-gullible kids to tear down our monuments from our past, we will not remember or understand what gave us our freedoms.  Why do you think they preserved Birkenau and Auschwitz where millions died in gas chambers during World War II?  Answer: to remember that humanity won’t let that happen again.

Why did we erect a statue of Martin Luther King on the Washington Mall?  Answer: to demonstrate peacefully toward any goal to bring the greater good.

If you’re going to take away our past, you ensure shredding our future.  But if you still want to do it; then, do it by petitioning your city council for replacing statues that you don’t like.  That’s how change works in a civilized society.

Looting, burning, rioting and monument destruction do nothing to preserve the foundation and the basic goodness for all people in America.

Turn Chaos Into Reasoned Action To Preserve America

If mayors and governors continue allowing anarchists of any color to continue to destroy our heritage, our stores, our malls and our statues—it’s very possible to turn our major cities into replications of Detroit, Michigan.  At this point, Minneapolis gallops toward its own demise.  Without functioning police departments, the barbarians at the door will simply become the barbarians in your house or church or synagogue or other place of worship. Those barbarians won’t grow or bring you food, or pay your rent, or take your kids to school. They do nothing for the public good or the “Social Contract” of our society.

Already, huge businesses like Walmart, Kohl’s and Target threaten to vacate Minneapolis, Chicago, Seattle, Atlanta and other riot-torn cities.

If you lose the cohesion of jobs, communities and civil responsibilities to Black Lives Matter and Antifa anarchists—you are left with lawlessness.  They only employ thugs to tear things down, not build things up.

Instead of allowing their insanity in Seattle, Minneapolis, Portland and other big cities, what’s left of the police departments and National Guard need to track down those anarchists, arrest them, prosecute them and throw them in prison to help them understand that this is the most viable, fair and reasoned society in the world. America gives more people of every color and faith, more opportunities than all other countries combined. America features incredible welfare systems to feed and house our children, feed our poor citizens, give medical care and ensure domestic tranquility via police departments across the country. Without the rule of law, we become another Somalia, Congo or Sudan.

Do you see anyone immigrating to those countries?

It’s time for Americans who respect our past, respect our Constitution and respect our country—to stand up, speak out and support our police departments and the rule of law.

If not, we will certainly repeat Detroit, Michigan’s fate across the country. It will not be a pretty ending for anyone.

What about the police?  They must deal with the dregs of society 24/7.  Thousands of thugs, crooks, swindlers, cheats, liars, bank robbers, rapists and killers operate in America around the clock.  Without that thin blue line, you and your family wouldn’t stand a chance.

Sharon Marx wrote in FB:  I live in Littleton, Colorado. If you are a law enforcement officer and need a break, you can come park outside my home.  If you are thirsty, I will bring you a drink. If you are hungry, I will fix you food. If you are hot, I will invite you inside to cool off. If you need additional ammo, just ask. If you need backup, I will stand with you. If you need to cry, I will hug you and let you. If you need to talk, I will listen. If you need to pray, I will kneel with you. If you are wrong, I will tell you. If you are right, I will support you. I only ask that you don’t lose faith in Americans.  We are not all against you.  All lives matter. Take off your sunglasses and see the good people that are here for you. We are not as loud and obnoxious as these whiny media seekers. We are strong and waiting to follow your lead.  God bless you and your family. Thank you for your service.  The vast majority of Americans back the men and women in blue.

Have you called your mayor’s office in your city to encourage him or her to maintain your police department?  Have you called your governor’s office with support of the police to stop all violent rioters and arrest them?  Have you written a letter to the editor demanding that your elected officials honor their oaths of office to preserve the laws of your state and community?  If you haven’t, why haven’t you?  Who do you think will do it for you?  What do you think will happen in your community if you allow the same kind of anarchy that brought Minneapolis and many other cities to their knees?  Do you understand that the worst decision you can make is to think you can do so little that you do nothing at all?

Since Americans fought for Blacks’ freedom in 1865 with the end of the Civil War, our country spins around and around on the racial conflict merry-go-round.  Each decade, new players ride the spinning wheel from Dred Scott to Harriet Tubman to Martin Luther King to Jesse Jackson to Al Sharpton. Oh, and let’s not forget Maxine Waters.

No matter how many Band-Aids and changes to the White Man’s laws to eradicate ‘racism’, the Negro race and the Caucasian race fail to integrate, fail to get along and they fail to accept each other.  It’s biological.  European Americans arrived from sophisticated civilizations while Africans arrived from primal societies from the Dark Continent.  That fact illustrates a major dichotomy in the two races.

Whether you remember the Detroit riots, MLK marches, water cannons, LA riots, Black Panthers, Kaepernick, George Floyd and endless skirmishes in colleges, workplaces, and sports—it’s a sobering fact that Blacks and White simply don’t get along, don’t like each other and/or endure their circumstances in America.

This cultural experiment tests a faulty hypothesis: can people taken out of the jungles of Africa as slaves, become fully integrated as citizens in an overwhelmingly White country?

Historian and writer Ian Duncan said, “The whites were descendants of Europeans who had created a majestic civilization.  The former slaves had been tribal peoples with no written language and virtually no intellectual achievements.  Acting on a policy that was not fair to either group, the government released newly freed black people into a white society that saw them as inferiors.  America has struggled with racial discord ever since.”

Decade after decade, we’ve hoped for the best outcome in this racially and culturally disparate situation.  While most of the Blacks and Whites get along in America, there’s always that “edge” of distrust, as well as feelings of superiority and inferiority that persist in both tribes. One race enjoys superior athletic ability while the other race excels in the intellectual realm.

Whites introduced everything from the Great Society to Affirmative Action.

Duncan said, “They called in National Guard troops to enforce school integration.  They outlawed freedom of association.  Over the protests of parents, they put white children on buses and sent them to black schools and vice-versa.  They tried with money, special programs, relaxed standards, and endless handwringing to close the achievement gap.  To keep white backlash in check they began punishing public and even private statements on race.  They hung up Orwellian public banners that commanded whites to Celebrate Diversity! And Say No to Racism.  Nothing was off limits if it might salvage the experiment.”

Yet, nothing solves inner city Black violence against Blacks, failed schools, illiteracy, crime, gangs, drugs and astounding 7 out of 10 out-of-wedlock Black children arrive into this world without fathers in the USA. In Africa, it’s 9 out of 10.  You might call it an “evolutionary disaster.”

Duncan said, “Through the years, too many black people continue to show an inability to function and prosper in a culture unsuited to them.  Minneapolis degrades into total breakdown.  Detroit is bankrupt, the south side of Chicago is a war zone, and the vast majority of black cities all over America are beset by degeneracy and violence.  And blacks never take responsibility for their failures.  Instead, they lash out in anger and resentment.”

Our reality: nothing changes no matter how many programs or money spent.  Black president Obama couldn’t solve it.  Top Black U.S. Senators and House members haven’t solved it.  Some argue it’s a problem of culture, as if culture creates peoples’ behavior instead of the other way around. Others blame white privilege.

Duncan continued, “But since 1965, when the elites opened Americas doors to the Third World, immigrants from Asia and India, people who are not white, not rich, and not connected have quietly succeeded.  While the children of these people are winning spelling bees and getting top scores on the SAT, black youths are committing half the country’s violent crime, which includes viciously punching random white people on the street for the thrill of it that has nothing to do with poverty.”

Let’s face it, this mixing of races has failed.  I submit not from White culture or White racism. The fundamental problem is that American Black culture has evolved into an un-fixable and crime ridden disaster.  I submit that if you sent any number of Whites into tribes in Africa, they would fail, too.  There’s no way Whites can change to tribal culture any more than Blacks can assimilate into highly organized laws, education and disciplines of White culture.

I remember when I taught in the ghetto for two years: when a child could not perform mathematical problems, they became frustrated, then angry and finally, violent.  They dropped out and joined gangs where they found their identity. Of course, they suffered from illiteracy, which guaranteed a life of poverty in the White man’s world.

As Duncan said, “White people aren’t out to get black people; they are just exhausted with them.  They are exhausted by the social pathologies, the violence, the endless complaints, and the blind racial solidarity, the bottomless pit of grievances, the excuses, and the reflexive animosity.”

There’s no question that Black people live in White man’s culture that does not fit their own DNA tribal culture.  No matter what Whites or Blacks do to alleviate the problem, it’s unsolvable.

One unknown writer said, “You can’t legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom.  What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.  The government can’t give to anybody anything that the government doesn’t first take from somebody else.  When half of the people get the idea that they don’t have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is about the end of any nation.”

Riots in 75 American cities.  Cops being shot sitting in their patrol cars. Antifa and Black Lives Matter terrorist groups burning down police precincts.  Police cruisers being set on fire.  Thousands of innocent businesses looted and burned.  Historic monuments desecrated and destroyed.  Citizen-terrorists wrecking Main Street America.

Sound like the America you knew?  Or, is this a brave new America?  Or, is it America at all?

At this point, our country no longer remains our country.  Via endless immigration out of the third world, it’s being given away piece by piece, chunk by chunk and city by city.

Witness the results of the 1965 Immigration Reform Act that shoved 100 million people from third world countries down our throats. It’s changed our intelligence, our culture, our language and our sense of loyalty to our country.

Minnesota, the cauldron for the riots, has degraded from less than 1 percent foreign-born in 1965 to 10 percent foreign-born today.  A total of 45 million foreign born now stomp around in our country.  Who represents Minneapolis today?  Somalian Ilhan Omar, not an American, and who has never read the U.S. Constitution, and who committed immigration fraud to gain access to the USA.  Additionally, she said, “I want all Muslims to make Americans uncomfortable.”  Exactly why should we feel uncomfortable in our own country?  Would anyone feel comfortable in her country of Somalia?

“Instead of liberal but non-rioting Scandinavians and Germans, the new immigrants are overwhelmingly African, Asian, and Hispanic. In fact, Minnesota now has a much larger proportion of Asian and African immigrants than the nation as a whole,” said Ann Coulter. (June 10, 2020, Breitbart News.)

And yet, no one thinks immigration means much of anything as long as it’s legal.  What’s going to happen when the next 100 million bedraggled masses hit our shores by 2050?

California; Bow of the USS Titanic

California devolved from the state that elected Ronald Reagan to Governor Gavin Newsome and Nancy Pelosi along with Maxine Waters, who represent and encourage endless illegal migration.

How did all this happen?

You guessed it: endless immigration out of the third world.  Fifty years ago, California enjoyed 85 percent White residents.  They show a scant 37 percent today and dropping fast.  Detroit now stands as Islam’s first caliphate in Dearbornistan, Michigan. To visit there is to visit a country within our country.  It’s the same with “Somaliland” in Minneapolis with 120,000 foreign born African bush people. Arabic writing on store fronts and everywhere. You will not see one American flag being flown in the area.

In 2019, those same bush people scammed over $100,000,000.00 of American taxpayer money via Electronic Benefits Transfers credit cards. A sobering 9.5 out of ten of them subsist on welfare for life.

In big cities where immigrants enclave, they vote for the best democrats who promise the most goodies.  NYC May Di Blasio won 96 percent of the black vote, 87 percent of Hispanics, 70 percent of Asians and 54 percent of the White vote.

As we import more of them, we may expect them to express themselves on the forever welfare rolls, Molotov cocktails, burning police cars, leading marches and stomping on Old Glory.

“We don’t have the figures for the current, ongoing nationwide riots, but a Loyola-Marymount professor recently gushed to the New York Times that compared to the Rodney King riots, these have been “truly multicultural.” If we ever find out, I’ll lay even odds that a lot of the looters standing by with empty suitcases outside the luxury stores were our immigrant fraudsters, otherwise employed stealing billions of dollars from Medicare, Social Security, and food stamp programs,” said Coulter.

Why haven’t Americans figured this immigration invasion out?  What clouds the majority of Americans’ minds?  Doesn’t anyone put two and two together to discover the obvious answer?  How many more riots, flag burnings, Antifa thugs, looting, Black Lives Matter terrorists and cop cars burning will it take?

Are you, an American citizen, excited about the projected 100 million more foreigners imported into America from around the world?  If you are, well, just sit back and watch your country torched in the coming years.

Part 10:  Separate races, violent religions, make a new country

After 400 years of racism in America, and after 400 years of no solutions, and 400 years of no hope for any resolutions, has anyone thought about separating the races in America?  Again, ‘racism’ remains unsolvable because it stems from biological realities over the centuries of humanity’s march toward being modern mankind. It’s tribal.

The former mayor of Jackson, Mississippi, Mayor Chokwe Lumumba, promoted a separate Black nation in America. His son Chokwe Antar Lumumba carries on his father’s wishes to create the Republic of New Afrika in the five southern states of South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana.  Like his father, tens of thousands of American Blacks support his efforts.

If you remember back to India, the Muslims fought with the Hindus. After they realized they were totally incompatible, the Muslims separated into Pakistan in 1947.  How much conflict does anyone need in order to make intelligent choices.?  Today, the Indians stay in their country and the Muslims stay in Pakistan.  Both countries suffer incredible human misery from being overpopulated, malnourished and culturally somewhere in the Dark Ages.  But they maintain separate countries in order to co-exist.

In 1993, Thomas Chittum, Vietnam veteran penned a stunning book: Civil War II: The Coming Breakup of America.  I actually interviewed him on my radio show at the time and wrote several reviews for his book.  What absolutely blows my mind stems from the fact at the speed of it happening across America.

1. Buxum said, “It’s hard to criticize a book written 20 years ago which made bold predictions that haven’t come to fruition, but are pretty close to the mark. After the LA Riots and the increase in crime in the early 90’s, the idea of America fragmenting along racial lines seemed pretty compelling, but I think the author overestimated the speed at which collapse would take place. In any event, this book is a worthwhile read because many of the predictions concerning a possible collapse and civil war may still come to pass. In addition, the author provides some good information on what to do if things fall apart. It seems to me that we are more likely to move towards a police state and economic collapse, rather than outright civil war, but it is also easy to see the polarization of our country that could confirm the author’s vision in the next 5 to 10 years on account of failed leadership from both political parties.”

The anarchy of the past three weeks shows that Chittum’s predictions remain on track.

In 2003, I wrote a book:  Immigration’s Unarmed Invasion: Deadly Consequences by Frosty Wooldridge.  I based the book on Colorado’s former Governor Richard D. Lamm’s Washington DC speech, “The Eight Ways to Destroy America.”  I’m stunned at how fast his eight points manifest in America today.

In the past month since George Floyd’s death, the Black mayor of Washington DC has denounced the president, created a street “Black Lives Matter Plaza”, and she painted a three block long yellow paint statement as wide as the street, “Black Lives Matter.”

Perhaps, since the inception of America, Whites conquered, slaughtered and placed in internment camps the Native Americans.  Whites stole their land, changed their languages, stole their children and forced them into the ways of the White man. Not a pretty picture.  It’s possible with today’s racial revolution, Whites may be facing ‘cosmic payback’.

Additionally, White brought blacks to America in chains.  They forced them into the White man’s ways of laws, religion, White names, broke up families and lynching’s.  Not a pretty picture!  Notice Blacks have never accustomed themselves to the White man’s ways.  Blacks fill our prisons.  They fill our welfare rolls.  They suffer 7 out of 10 Black births come to a single mother out of wedlock faced with welfare.  They suffer extreme poverty.  They continue in illiteracy because too many simply cannot perform educational tasks of the White man’s schools.

Yes, many Blacks make it as reasonable, contributing adults, but there’s a whole lot of misery in the Black ghettos.  Gangs, drugs, shootings, and Black on Black crime is 100 times worse than police crimes on Blacks.

“We could make the United States an ‘Hispanic Quebec’ without much effort. The key is to celebrate diversity rather than unity.  As Benjamin Schwarz said in the ATLANTIC MONTHLY recently: “The apparent success of our own multi-ethnic and multi-cultural experiment might have been achieved not by tolerance but by hegemony.  Without the dominance that once dictated ethnocentrically and what it meant to be an American, we are left with only tolerance and pluralism to hold us together.”

Two weeks ago, Muslim students at San Francisco State University charged a student-run Republican voting table.  They knocked it over and threatened to blow up the place.  One Muslim woman vowed to become a bomber martyr.  They did not respect our Republican form of government where each of us is afforded our rights to free speech. Ironically, these are American Muslim student citizens.  Apparently, they didn’t realize that this is America.  No wonder their counterparts in the Middle East only know how to cock a gun or blow themselves up!

Should Blacks create a Black nation for Blacks only?  Could they become a trading partner like Mexico with White America?  Would it be more peaceful?  Could it neutralize racism?  Would they be able to maintain a healthy, viable and sustainable educational and economic system?  If you have other ideas on how to solve racism, please write at frostyw@juno.com.  Isn’t about time to solve racism in America?

Part 9: Black lives matter, need to think about race, Chicago endless murders of Blacks on Blacks.

Maybe African-Americans and all White Americans might demonstrate against this latest killing spree in Chicago in just 24 hours: It was all Black on Black killings. This slaughter made the George Floyd killing look like a picnic.

Chicago–18 murders in 24 hours: Inside the most violent day in 60 years in Chicago, weekend of June 6, 7, 2020.

“We’ve never seen anything like it, at all,” said Max Kapustin, the senior research director at the University of Chicago Crime Lab.  As reported by Tom Schuba, Sam Charles, and Matthew Hendrickson Jun 8, 2020.

While Blacks and Whites loot, plunder, riot and set fire to cop cars in our big cities over the George Floyd killing, a ‘usual’ killing spree continues in Chicago with enormous Black on Black killings.  How do understand Blacks killing 18 of themselves in the houses and streets of Chicago, but somehow, it’s business as usual.

First of all, Whites face charges of “White privilege” and “White Guilt” in the current mainstream media party that’s dividing our country into violent camps.  During the George Floyd killing, the other three officers with their knees on George Floyd were Asian, Black and Hispanic.  Exactly how do you bury that reality?  Does that mean there is “Hispanic Guilt, Black Privilege and Asian Superiority”?

The mainstream media buries anything it wants to make sure its narrative runs the current thinking across the nation.  No one wants to deal with the fact that Detroit, Michigan, because of minority violence in their schools, on the streets and in the stores—saw 1.2 million Whites flee for their lives within 20 years.  They left Detroit a ghost town.  I worked in Detroit to see it happen, firsthand.  I faced car jackings at stop lights, graffiti everywhere, trash, burned out cars, shoplifting, burglaries and Black Mayor Coleman Young led the crime wave that destroyed the city.

Now, it’s happening in Chicago.  You don’t dare walk outside in South Chicago. You could catch a stray bullet in a nano-second.  In the city that’s ‘gun free’, there’s shootings and killings 24/7.   It’s just that last weekend marked a mega-killing hour with 18 dead.  No mention of how many more dozens landed in the hospital with gunshot wounds.

So, are Whites guilty of all that killing like that one cop in Minneapolis?  Is there such a thing as “White Privilege”?  Should Whites suffer some kind of guilt for all Black Peoples’ choices as to dropping out of high school, taking drugs, joining gangs that get them throne into prison, or shooting another Black person, or 7 out of 10 single Black girls becoming pregnant out of wedlock?

Here’s a video that all Blacks and Whites might watch to gain greater clarification as to who’s responsible for what:

“Why we should not apologize for our race”

In the end, Blacks may choose to make choices that improve their lives, such as education, nutrition, job choices based on their educational excellence and healthy diet choices.  Blacks may want to respect themselves and choose peace over violence.

The same goes for Whites.  Respect each other and other races.

Finally, who will stand up among the races and take responsibility for personal behavior?  Who will stop the killing spree in Chicago and other big cities?  Doesn’t it sound better to say that “All Lives Matter”?  Doesn’t it sound better that the United States of America matters to all of us?

Part 8:  Riots, looting, racial conflict, Antifa

Just as the Constitutional Convention assembled at Constitution Hall to forge the Constitution of the United States in 1787, the founders faced a deeper moral, practical and religious question.  Could they pretend to promote the equality of all men and women, but continue slavery?

Thomas Jefferson said, “We’ve got a wolf by the ears; we can’t let him go, but we can’t hold him.”

Jefferson actually worked to abolish slavery, but the Southern States lived by it, worked by it and mandated it. If not for compromise, the Constitution would never come into being.  Jefferson said, “Future generations will have to deal with the moral plight of slavery.”

Even after 1865 when 500,000 White boys gave their lives to free the slaves, America has grappled with race relations from “separate but equal drinking fountains and restaurants” to All Black Colleges to Affirmative Action to job quotas for minorities to the Great Society to ongoing/cyclical poverty, illiteracy and criminal enterprise. Blacks represent about half of the 2.3 million people in prison, when they only represent 13 percent of the U.S. population.

First Detroit, Michigan faced a Black take-over that led to 1.2 million Whites fleeing the city in the 1980’s and 1990’s.  Blacks created a 78 percent dropout rate in area high schools.  Criminals shoplifted, carjacked, painted everything with graffiti and ransacked the welfare system. I worked for 20 years in Detroit to watch it become a war zone against Whites.

Today, Chicago, Illinois follows in Detroit’s footsteps.  In the past couple of weeks, Minneapolis, Minnesota, replete with 120,000 African immigrants, stands in the crosshairs of total anarchy and long-term racial dissension.

Even before the George Floyd incident, you heard of racial confrontation on a daily basis across the American landscape.  One Black professor stated, “If you’re White, you’re a racist.”   Today, Black Lives Matter has begun a national campaign of violence toward Whites along with Antifa anarchists.

Many Black activists urged total defunding of police departments. In other words, no police, thus no law and order.  That would give criminals a free pass across every city in America.  Every city would turn into another Detroit.

Former presidential candidate Herman Cain told reporters that we should mandate curfews for all peaceful demonstrators. Once anyone breaks the curfew, arrest them as the looters, anarchists and rioters.   It would quickly bring our country back to peace.

But it won’t change our racial conflict.  We indeed, both Black and White Americans, have a wolf by the ears.  And because racism remains a biological reality, there’s no way to solve it.  We’ve seen voter rights, equal rights, the Great Society, ADC, WIC, EBT cards, Section 8 Housing, Affirmative Action, Quotas, Black college scholarships, African-American studies in colleges, and $15.00 an hour at McDonald’s.  Still, Black poverty, crime and illiteracy persist.  Seven out of ten African-American children arrive out of wedlock to a single mother on welfare.  You would not want to live in South Chicago. It’s a killing zone of Black people shooting Black people, daily.

Few realize this, but George Floyd possessed a steady criminal past and he was passing off forged $20.00 bills at the time of his arrest.  In reality, although not his fault to suffer death, he caused his demise.  After his death, obviously mayors must change police tactics, protocols and more to at least give Black criminals a decent arrest, free from death and abuse.

“In the case of Freddie Gray in Baltimore, three of the four charged cops were black. The police department has only a small percentage of white officers. The police chief was black. The city council was black, the mayor was black….yet Obama, who was the president at that time, blamed Gray’s death on racism. Yes, you can say, “huh?”   Every year, dozens of white cops are gunned down by blacks; does that make the perps racist?  Likely, some are racist, and some are not, just like the cops who use deadly force. And just like the American public as a whole, the truth be known.”

The Eight Ways to Destroy America by Governor Richard D. Lamm

“Here is how they destroyed their countries,” Lamm said. “First, turn America into a bilingual or multilingual and bicultural country.  History shows that no nation can survive the tension, conflict and antagonism of two or more competing languages and cultures.  It is a blessing for an individual to be bilingual; however, it is a curse for a society to be bilingual.  The historical scholar Seymour Lipset put it this way, “The histories of bilingual and bicultural societies that do not assimilate are histories of turmoil, tension and tragedy.  Canada, Belgium, Malaysia, Lebanon—all face crises of national existence in which minorities press for autonomy, if not independence. Pakistan and Cyprus have divided. Nigeria suppressed an ethnic rebellion. France faces difficulties with Basques, Bretons and Corsicans.”

Lamm continued on how to destroy America, “Invent ‘multiculturalism’ and encourage immigrants to maintain their own culture. I would make it an article of belief that all cultures are equal. That there are no cultural differences!  I would make it an article of faith that the Black and Hispanic dropout rates are due to prejudice and discrimination by the majority. Every other explanation is out of bounds.”

Whether it’s Black Lives Matter or Antifa or the Muslim Brotherhood of America—if we continue on our present-day course of importing in excess of 1.5 million third world immigrants to enter our country annually—we don’t stand a chance of surviving as an intact and peaceful civilization.  Take a week visit to Sweden to see our future.  It’s that simple and that deadly for our children and all future generations—Black, White, Hispanic, Chinese, African, Indian, Native Americans and anyone living in America.

Do you think we will survive an added 100 million immigrants?  Do you think Black Lives Matter really care about White Lives Mattering?  What solutions would you offer to neutralize ‘racism’?  What do you see in the future as to our country’s ability to remain successful?  How would you change it for the better?

Part 6:  Racism, Martin, Wallace, Waters, Rioters, Antifa, Multiculturalism, Diversity

During my entire adult life since 1965 as a college student, racial conflict continues without pause in every state in America.  In the early 60’s, Dr. Martin Luther King marched for equal rights for African-Americans.  He met his last day on Earth at a motel.  Riots and destruction of property ensued.  Alabama Governor George Wallace stood in the doorway of his major university to stop Blacks from attending.  By 1968, Detroit, a city where I worked for 20 years, experienced race riots like nothing before.

In college Sociology classrooms at Michigan State University, they told us that people ‘learned’ racism.  They said that more education would make it vanish.  But no matter how the last 55 years have passed, I see racism across this country manifesting anywhere and everywhere Blacks and Whites mix. Africans and Europeans arrived in America from different continents, different cultures, different languages and different intellectual capacities.

Europeans created cities with dramatic architecture, laws, the wheel and agriculture.  Africans, hunter-gatherers, built mud huts.  They both possess the same humanoid DNA, but that’s about the extent of it.

In over 300 years of race-mixing in America, Blacks remain uncomfortable around Whites.  And, Whites fear blacks as witnessed by the downfall of Detroit, and now what’s happening Minneapolis. You can throw in Miami, Los Angeles and San Francisco.  Wherever Whites become the minority, they flee any city.

While we may pretend that America flourishes as a multi-cultural and diverse country—the hard facts show that discrimination and racism among our citizens continues unabated.  If you travel to southern California, you will see that Mexicans hate Blacks.  If you travel south of San Francisco, you will see entire cities dominated 100 percent by the Chinese with no affinity to America.   If you travel to Japan or China, you will enjoy smiling faces, but don’t try to move into those countries or even dream of becoming Chinese or Japanese.  They maintain strict racism and separation.  How do I know?  I traveled through them.

If you lived in Dearbornistan, Michigan in 2020 and you’re White, you would find yourself not welcome in their Muslim enclave where they maintain their customs, language, their barbaric Sharia Law such as ‘honor killings’ and female genital mutilation of young girls, and women with less value than a dog.  If they could, those Muslims would install Sharia Law throughout the United States in a nano-second.  And in fact, they are installing de facto Sharia Law in enclaves such as Minneapolis, NYC, Miami, Freemont, California, Denver, Colorado and wherever they enclave.

In a place close to my home in Boulder, Colorado, you will see hundreds of SUV’s featuring “Diversity Makes Us United” and “Multiculturalism Is America’s Highest Achievement.”  But in fact, those same mothers drive their kids to all-White schools to keep them away from the trailer parks and poor parts of town dominated by Mexican-Black kids with their parents illegally working in the kitchens of Boulder.

From my 55 years of experiences from world travel, I learned that multiculturalism and diversity have never worked,  not working today, and never will work in the future.

Yes, you will see a few Black guys marrying white women, usually sports heroes with lots of money.  You will see Blacks and Whites lovin’ it up on TV on Entertainment Tonight, and you’ll see Blacks and Whites “Dancing with the Stars.”  But in the end, they self-segregate and go home to their own racial enclaves.

If you go to any bistro in New York City, and I have worked in the Big Apple, you see different races segregating with their same races.

What confounds me:  why is it that White Europeans must be integrated with all of overpopulated Africa and why must European cultures and religions be bastardized by people from diametrically different cultures and religions?  Why isn’t there a push to integrate Africa or Saudi Arabia with White people?   Why are Canadian, European and American cultures being destroyed by failed-cultures from the Middle East and Africa?  Do you have any idea why? And who is doing it?  Why would any sane elite power broker want to change European culture into African or Middle Eastern chaos?

As much as African-Americans feel angst, none of them would return to Africa where they would face starvation, disease and poverty.

Because the fact remains:  Africa will not curb its exploding population that demographers predict will add another 1 billion, net gain, in 30 years and reach 4 billion by 2095.  Thus, no matter how many Africans America, Canada or Europe absorb—those Western countries don’t stand a chance of surviving by 2050—a scant 30 years from now.

Ironically, when I bicycled across Minnesota in 2017, a Black Somalia Police officer Muhammed Noor, pulled his revolver and shot a White woman, Justine Rusczyk, walking toward the police cruiser in her bath robe to speak to the officers.  He was arrested for third degree murder and sits in a jail cell for the next 12 years.  (They no longer carry the ‘affirmative action’ police program because they realized Somalians lack the intellectual capacity to become cops.)

No one rioted, burned down buildings, marched in the streets or torched police and civilian cars.  The people waited for justice to prevail.  Like George Floyd, she’s still dead, too.

Over the Memorial Day Weekend, in Chicago, 49 minority people shot 49 other minority people and killed 10 of them. No one from “Black Lives Matter” whispered a word. In fact, over 700 minorities died at the hands of 700 other minorities in Chicago in 2019.  Al Sharpton remained silent as did Jesse Jackson and Maxine Waters.  (Source: Chicago Tribune, Black Gun Killings in 2019.)

A double standard remains in place that ignores the facts and blames the Whites for every fault of American Society. While the White officer killed George Floyd, hundreds and in fact, thousands of Black deaths stem from other Blacks shooting them, knifing them or beating them to death.

In the end, Blacks and Whites may not be comfortable with one another, and they don’t want to live around each other—but they need to learn to respect one another.  Otherwise, our multicultural and diverse society faces a violent future.

How would you solve the ‘racism’ problem?  What ideas can you produce to create a more stable and fairer America?  Do you think it’s possible to educate our young out of this racial conflict?

Part 5:  Responses from more baby boomers on how Washington DC works, how it lies, cheats and steals from the American people.

First of all, thank you to the hundreds of baby boomers responding to this series.  With SO many boomers responding, it may very well become a book.  The fact remains: we all care about America. We care about what happens to our kids. We care about our culture, language and quality of life.  We care about our choices, and, we damned well will fight for them.

Please enjoy this response from a fellow American from South Carolina with permission:

Frosty, I just read your latest article, “Ruminations of a Baby Boomer:  Why Our Elected Don’t Represent Us”, and as a Baby Boomer myself (I’m 76 years old),  I have tried for many years to get a handle on the possible reasons why so many Americans would want to destroy America.  Such ruminations as you call them have produced more frustration and hand-wringing than anyone should experience in a lifetime.

Unfortunately, instead of producing good information on the sought-after reasons, I have settled on the same fault/cause as you: ‘Power corrupts’.  Through the years, many have predicted the end of a nation that experiences the events this nation has.  Every democracy is self-destructive, and ends in either a military explosion or a cultural/political implosion.  Had I studied our own history along with world history more, I would have learned this at a much younger age.  I wish I had become an avid American/world history buff during my school years, but, like so many others, I was a lower middle-class kid growing up in the fast-moving days of the post WWII era.  Life was good, what could possibly ever go wrong?  Life would just get better and better and the American utopia would last forever, right?  Americans were led to believe that those we elected to Congress and the White House were ‘on our side’ and were only making decisions that were for our benefit.  I actually fell for it and believed it—for a while, but then I began to see what was happening.  And now, at my advanced age, I see with my own old eyes exactly what could go wrong, and surely has gone WAY wrong.

Over the course of several decades, we allowed a bunch of unprincipled, greedy, lying politicians to pull the wool over our eyes, blinding us to the truth,  and the immense prosperity our nation experienced for many years added to the feeling that ‘all is right with the world’, when the opposite in fact was the reality.

Now that many of us know what is happening and why (greed, the love of money, the desire for power and control), the only remaining unanswered question is: “What can we do about it?”  Many will say, “Vote them out!”, but that is not a viable option.  The only choices we are ever given in major elections is for a candidate of one of the two parties that are chosen by the globalist elites.  As George Wallace famously said back in the 60’s, “There is not a dime’s worth of difference between the Democratic Party and the Republican Party.”

(It was U.S. Senator Huey Long of Louisiana who said, “ They’ve got a set of Republican waiters on one side and a set of Democratic waiters on the other wide, but no matter which set of waiters brings you the dish, the legislative grub is all prepared by the Wall Street Kitchen.”) And as accurate as that assessment was 50+ years ago, it is even more accurate now.  So, I even hate to ask this question, but, is another revolution, such as the one that founded this nation, the only option true American patriots have to get our nation, our freedoms and our liberties back? B.H. South Carolina

You can’t help but notice our country fragmenting and fracturing as our Congress imports millions of the world’s refugees.  You may call them legal or illegal immigrants, but the fact remains, they arrive from failed countries, failed cultures and very low intellectual abilities.  Once they arrive, they simply manifest in the USA what they manifested in their own countries.

There is NO WAY a Somalian refugee can cope with modern America. He or she can only survive with the welfare systems in place that were meant for Americans.  But somebody drives our country toward a conflicted future with clashing ethnic tribes, languages, cultures and religions.

Does it mean we are destined toward Civil War II?  A man named Thomas Chittum whom I interviewed on radio 20 years ago, wrote a book Civil War II: The Coming Breakup of America.  Do you realize that what he predicted grows ever closer each year we add the rest of the world into our midst?   Do you see our conflicted cities as to Los Angeles, Minneapolis, Detroit, Chicago and Miami?

Is it possible that we simply are too lazy, too apathetic and too sleepy to see what’s coming with another 100 million people added in 30 years?  Have you heard of the term “civilizational despair”?  Does it mean we simply are too weary, too weak and to exasperated to take action for a better future?  What do you think?  Can you send me your ideas?  frostyw@juno.com

Part 4: Monsanto, Dow Chemical, and Chevron all developed 70,000 chemicals now poisoning our world 24/7

As a baby boomer, my Schwinn bike and I delivered 80 Atlanta Constitution-Journal newspapers seven days a week at 5 a.m. with the rising sun.  After that, I sped off to school for classes all day.  Study, study, study every moment of my spare time!   After school, football, basketball and track in the spring.  Evenings, study, study and more study.

My dad said, “Do your schoolwork first, and then, sports. Your academics will carry you through life successfully. Sports will keep your fit and balanced.”

In 1965, I roared into college with little idea of what I would do with my life.  Nonetheless, I forged ahead with basic classes in English, history, math, science, French and humanities.  Not until my sophomore year did I take a class in Creative Writing with Mrs. Beatrice Moynihan. She inspired me toward journalism.  It’s been a raging passion since 1966.

When I first attended Michigan State University, I thought our elected officials carried out the best intentions of the American people.  I thought they were our best and brightest.  John F. Kennedy inspired us, but carried-on endless affairs behind his wife’s back. Bill Clinton and Kennedy should share a jail cell in Hades.  Later, I discovered Lyndon Baines Johnson was a racist, sexist, philanderer, crook and liar right up there with Al Capone.

My idealism changed by 1968 when I discovered politics and politicians represented a whole new class of dishonest, deceitful and self-absorbed scoundrels.  They lied and lied the about Vietnam War while young kids died to make bankers rich.  We awoke with the Pentagon Papers by Daniel Ellsberg explicitly showing White House big wigs continuing the war to make money and save face.  They were pathetic, amoral men.  Yes, a few good ones prevailed in the halls of Congress, but as attested today, the majority of Congressional critters take the American people into horrible wars, non-action as to the drug invasion over our borders, unsecured borders and dozens of other consequential acts to harm the American people.  You could name a dozen off the tip of your tongue right now.  The corruption in DC rages beyond our imagination.

Let’s talk about the current opioid addiction in 2019-20 orchestrated by Big Pharma and medical doctors. They KNEW those drugs addicted and killed tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of Americans, BUT they still distributed them.  Medical doctors and Big Pharma companies kill over 100,000 Americans annually with prescribed drugs, BUT still manufacture and prescribe them to innocent Americans.  They never mention or advise a healthy nutritional diet and exercise! NEVER, EVER!

As an optimistic youth, I graduated from MSU with a sense of being able to change racism to respect, the Vietnam War into peace and Dow Chemical Company along with Monsanto into honorable companies that wouldn’t poison the world.

Instead, I discovered that racism can’t be stopped because its biological.  I realized that the Military Industrial Complex created wars in order to profit the very rich.  I discovered that Dow Chemical and Monsanto bribed members of Congress in order to spread their poisons to the far ends of the earth with total immunity. Notice Roundup by the rows of gallons on the selves of Home Depot, Walmart, Lowes, Ace and the rest.  If their owners were ethical, they would not carry such deadly products.  If the American public wasn’t so stupid, it/they wouldn’t buy those poisons.

If not for Rachal Carson’s Silent Spring, Dow and Monsanto would have you believe that DDT, Roundup and Agent Orange benefited the Natural World.   At the time, we watched robins drop out of trees on MSU’s campus from DDT being sprayed all over campus.  It killed bald eagles. It poisoned insects that the birds ate and killed the birds in the process.  It seeps into the ground to poison the angleworms and destroy the PH balance and nitro-fixing bacteria.  Monsanto, Dow Chemical and Bayer and their shareholders are the true ecological terrorists on the planet.  Ask anyone with Parkinson’s Disease, MS, MD, Autism and the list grows.

We finally banned DDT because of Carson’s work, but Chevron and other big chemicals giants still produce it and sell it to South America and India.  How do I know? I traveled in those places to smell it and see it being sprayed, so I know it’s still being produced and used around the world.  Those corporate heads at Dow and Monsanto should share a jail cell in hell for their crimes against Mother Nature.

At this point, those huge companies created 70,000 chemicals being used in the world today 24/7.  They poison the air, ground water, soil, rivers, and ultimately our oceans.  We’re losing over 100 species daily to extinction around the world from those poisons and habitat encroachment. (Source: Norman Myers, Oxford University, “Sixth Extinction Session” 40-year study)

Do you remember Marlboro Man, Lucky Strike and Menthol Cigarettes?  Sports heroes promoted them.  Doctors praised the health benefits of smoking.  The tobacco companies paid billions of dollars to keep Congress from banning tobacco as an agent of death. Today, we lose 450,000 Americans annually to tobacco-cancer deaths.  And, still Congress refuses to ban tobacco.  Think: money, greed and more money.  In 2020, our kids don’t possess a clue of their lifetime addiction to nicotine and the cancers it produces in the human body. But once they become hooked, they suffer addiction until they die of a premature and nasty death.

As to Monsanto’s insecticides and pesticides, do you know about Bee Colony Collapse as it manifests around the world as the poisons kill the pollinators into the billions, if not trillions of bees.  Once we kill off enough pollinators, the human race faces a tenuous future.

Do you think the members of Congress would stop it with all the facts now on the table?  Did they stop tobacco from killing millions of Americans?  Answer: not a chance with bribes leading the way.

We wonder why Autism once affected 1 life birth in 80,000 births; but today, it affects 1 child in 88 live births. It’s a neurological nightmare for the body.  Of course, Dow Chemical and Monsanto will bribe our Congressional Critters to make sure no one stops the chemicals pouring out of their manufacturing plants in Midland, Michigan.

Again, it’s a “Faustian Bargain” where such people treasure money over health and wellness of our world.

As this point in the latter years of my life, I am under no  illusion that our presidents or members of Congress will ever do the right or ethical thing by the American people.  They serve money and power, first, last and always.  Soberingly, it’s much worse around the world in poverty-stricken third world countries, dictatorships and the like.

So, what can you do? Can you stop buying Roundup, Weed B Gone, insecticides, herbicides and any other chemicals that disrupt the Natural World?  Can you write letters to the editor to have those poisons banned from Home Depot, Lowes, Target, Walmart and Ace stores?  Can you educate your city council to stop using those poisons?

As I said in the previous column, Charles Kellogg saved the last 5 percent of the redwoods in California from the lumberman’s ax.  Is it possible that you can do the same in your own community?  I may be an old man, and I may be tired out from my struggles over the last 73 years, yet I carry the hope, the energy and the fortitude of John Muir that each of us can make a difference to make it a better world for  our children.  How about you?

Part 4:  Men and women elected to the US Congress submit to money, greed and power, systemic corruption, human nature of self-interest

Back in 1776, a whole bunch of American colonists lost their lives attempting to free themselves from the “Divine Right of Kings.”  As ‘subjects’, they lacked any enjoyment of the amenities of the King of England and his entourage.

Even today, the United Kingdom maintains the ‘royals’ who don’t work, don’t contribute and lead frivolous lives—paid for by every working stiff in the country.  Via their birth-lottery luck, royals enjoy wealth, public adulation and pomp—for doing absolutely nothing of merit or worth.   It’s almost comical to see Prince Harry, now led around by the nose by his American wife Megan Markle, try to figure out his life in Los Angeles where he flops around emotionally, mentally and physically trying to figure out his new life as a commoner.  His journey may see some contentious turns in the coming months. He’s a man without a country. I could speak few words about his manhood, but I’ll leave it to your imagination.

Whatever happened in America in 1776, a new brand of individual emerged.  That guy and gal gritted his or her teeth when England unfairly taxed them, housed soldiers in their homes and submitted to being wage-slaves to the Crown.  It didn’t sit well with Daniel Boone, Nathan Hale, Paul Revere, Samuel Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Ethan Allen, Ben Franklin and George Washington.

After driving the British out of America, those great men and their wives, Abigail Adams & Martha Washington, created a Constitution that mandated an extraordinary form of government, “…of the people, by the people and for the people…free speech…right to carry arms….”

In the amendments, they gave us, the average American citizen, the ability to control our government by our choices.  We enjoyed electing representative to serve our needs.  That proceeded rather well up until 55 years ago around 1965.

That’s when the Military Industrial Complex corporate heads bribed, lobbied, and cajoled our reps with gifts to create the Vietnam War.  They used the one thing that the Founding Fathers didn’t place into the U.S. Constitution: term limits.  Since 1965, our career, corrupt criminal class of ‘forever’ politicians continue to screw us out of our children in wars and out of our money through tax mandates.  As I’ve stated in recent columns, America has been creating and continuing wars for half my life. What exactly have we accomplished in Iraq and Afghanistan in the past 19 years?

Those same politicians play on our fears, on our emotions and on our sheep-like frailties to follow-support greedy men in high places.

Essentially, career politicians resemble the ‘royals’ that screwed their own ‘subjects’ in jolly old England.  Why do so many of them become millionaires?  Answer: they enjoy insider trading on massive defense contracts maintained by the Defense Department, et al.  It should really be called the “War Department.”

When you and I use common sense and painstaking accounting of our earned incomes, those people in Washington DC use their influence to make themselves rich, self-important and forever politicians.  As the great Lord Acton 150 years ago said, “Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.”

While we clamor for “term limits” or stand against the wars in the middle east after 19 years of futility, notice the wars continue whether we can afford them or not at $6 trillion of wasted money.  Those wars continue because we keep voting in the same scoundrels who make money off those wars at the expense of tens of thousands of our young soldiers. Is it possible that we can equate the 22 soldier suicides daily to PTSD, to the suicide of our country?

What about the massive and endless illegal immigration crisis?  It hasn’t stopped since it began in earnest in 1980.  It’s caused  our poor to become poorer and our 5 percent rich to become richer. We’ve got 40 million people subsisting on food stamps for heaven sakes!  Notice that we have 25 million illegal aliens displacing our working poor!  The big money people thrive while our country fragments and fractures on sociological, linguistic, cultural and religious fault-lines.

We don’t need or want 1.2 million legal immigrants annually because we can’t afford them, can’t afford the welfare, and can’t afford the exploding sociological fracturing—but Congress keeps pumping them into our cities at 100,000 per month, without end.  Some rich people along  with religious groups make a lot of money while you and I open our wallets and pay a lot of cash.

As a baby boomer, I’ve seen this grand criminal procession from 1965 onward to this day.  I’ve long given up hope that it will end.  Washington DC remains a den of thieves who could care less about the future of our nation.

“Here is how we can destroy America,” Lamm said. “First, turn America into a bilingual or multilingual and bicultural country.  History shows that no nation can survive the tension, conflict and antagonism of two or more competing languages and cultures.  It is a blessing for an individual to be bilingual; however, it is a curse for a society to be bilingual.  The historical scholar Seymour Lipset put it this way, “The histories of bilingual and bicultural societies that do not assimilate are histories of turmoil, tension and tragedy.  Canada, Belgium, Malaysia, Lebanon—all face crises of national existence in which minorities press for autonomy, if not independence. Pakistan and Cyprus have divided. Nigeria suppressed an ethnic rebellion. France faces difficulties with Basques, Bretons and Corsicans.”

Lamm said, “If you believe that America is too smug, too self-satisfied, too rich, then let’s destroy America.  It is not that hard to do.  No nation in history has survived the ravages of time.  Arnold Toynbee observed that all great civilizations rise and fall, and that, “An autopsy of history would show that all great nations commit suicide.”

Wouldn’t you say that we’re pretty much on the same path as when I witnessed this speech in Washington DC in October 2003?  Do you think there’s any chance that we will stop all immigration to save ourselves?  What do you think will happen to your kids if we don’t stop all immigration and add the projected 100 million more people by 2050?  Any chance you realize that we are committing national, cultural, sociological and linguistic suicide?

Do you think our elected forever criminal reps serve us or even care a twit?  My thought: in a pig’s eye!

Part 3: Rich versus Poor, Smart versus Illiterate, Middle America versus Inner-city America

During my college years, I became a volunteer teacher at Franklin Street School in Grand Rapids, Michigan.  I read all the educational success stories of inner-city teachers. I ate it up. My high-energy enthusiasm walked into those classrooms “knowing” I would change the world for the better.

Two years later, I fled those classrooms because of the violence, sexual deviance, drugs, beatings, alcoholism and emotional abuse those inner-city kids faced on a daily basis.  Their parents suffered from illiteracy, joblessness and simply not being able to cope with American life or the jobs that required educational excellence.  In a word: hopeless!  I discovered nothing works in ghetto schools in Detroit, NYC, Chicago, Atlanta, Miami, Denver, Dallas, LA and any big city with huge minority classrooms. At one point in Detroit, Michigan’s flushing itself down the toilet, high school dropout rates ran at 78 percent.  I worked there to see it myself. I’ll never forget a Detroit Free Press headline I read after I had worked a 16-hour day: “Welfare queen has her 24th child.”

I personally watched Detroit, which before 1941, featured 95 percent European-Americans, change to over 80 percent African-American and Hispanic by 2000. Today, it’s quickly becoming a middle-eastern immigrant city, and, essentially a parallel society with its own religion, culture, Sharia Law, banking system and language.

What did I find as to our educational shortcomings in America?  First of all, IQ’s dictate a child’s intellectual curiosity. The lower their IQ, the lower their interest in learning.  When they live with uneducated parents with commensurate low IQ’s, the TV becomes their teacher—which leads to no interest in learning anything.  Once they can’t master simple math-science classes, they turn in anger and frustration to gangs and drugs.  When that happens, their educational trajectory spirals into the toilet.  When they hit 18, they repeat their parents’ history with remaining on the lowest rung of the economic ladder.  What am I talking about when I state, “low IQ’s”?  The range I’m speaking about runs from 75 to 90.  The average European-American IQ in America stands at 100.

Inner-city kids stumble into dirt-poor jobs, and/or, the girls get pregnant and live on welfare created by LBJ’s “Great Society.”  It’s my estimate that welfare proved the worst program for minority America.  The “Great Society” should have been “The Educational-Workfare-Personal Responsibility Society.” Once you take away personal responsibility, it’s a vicious cycle of reliance on ‘free-bees’, and it hasn’t changed or improved since I started teaching in 1971.

The caveat? The television shows inner-city kids wealth beyond their means. It shows Black movie stars, sports heroes and musicians driving fancy cars and living in mansions.  Something those inner-city kids will never see!

Do you remember Bubba Smith at Michigan State University in 1963-65?  He suffered from functional-illiteracy, but on the football field, he hit like a freight train. He upgraded to NFL glory, but could barely read.  All the inner-city scholar-shipped kids in all the major colleges couldn’t pass a reading, math or science test in high school let alone college grade academics—but they received 4.0 (A) marks because all the big colleges made money off their gridiron skills.  Incredible academic fraud!  It’s continues today.

When I fled the inner city, I landed in Denver, Colorado where I taught at an average middle-income school where kids loved learning and performed to the best of their abilities.

But, as I traveled across America as a summer truck driver for United Van Lines, I witnessed ghettos in Detroit, Baltimore, Denver, Atlanta, LA, Houston, Phoenix, Chicago and on down the line. We’re not addressing job skills or educational skills or academics that lead to personal success in the job market for minorities.  At this point, very few school systems prepare inner city kids for working-talents in America beyond burger-flipper and janitor.  Thus, their lives remain in the ghetto. Worse, as robotics displace workers from redundant jobs like auto-assembly, we’ll see even greater unemployment for minorities.

Ironically, you see Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos enjoying $60 billion and $159 billion bank accounts.  House Speaker Nancy Pelosi secured a bank statement reportedly in excess of $124 million, but 62,000 homeless people live in the streets of her district.  That goes with House Member Maxine Waters, also a millionaire via insider defense contracts trading, but callously watches ghettoes grow in her district. In California, you see the filthy, filthy rich and ghastly, dirt poor.  I’ve bicycled through all of it!

The American Reading Society shows that 44 million Americans remain functionally illiterate: they cannot read, write or perform simple 3rd grade math problems. Over 40 million Americans subsist on food stamps and Section 8 housing. They live in trashed-out slums. Slums exist in America as horrible as the ones I saw in Asia.

And yet, in my last 50 years of traveling around America by bicycle, truck or motorcycle to all 50 states, nothing has changed for the better.  Baltimore, Maryland consists of horrible ghettos, thousands of poor living in hopeless situations and crime everywhere.  South Chicago stands as a monument to frustration, joblessness, hopelessness, drugs, violence and illiteracy. Not to mention it’s the new murder capitol of America as it replaces Detroit.

At the same time while our poorest and least intelligent live squalor-filled lives, we spend $750 billion annually for military dominance.  We spent $6 trillion in Iraq and Afghanistan for the past 19 years with NOTHING to show for it.  We’re not safer, smarter or more secure.  We’ve got wide-open borders that allow any terrorist to infiltrate our country.  How do I know?  I visited the border from San Diego to Brownsville, Texas, 1,952 miles, last spring.  It’s a free-for-all for anyone who wants to enter the USA illegally.

During my tenure on this planet as a baby boomer, I’ve visited the “hell-holes” of India, Bangladesh, China, Mexico City and many other overloaded, overwhelmed and overpopulated countries. They cannot save themselves. They cannot solve their problems.  They face SUCH enormously disastrous futures that their citizens face horrific consequences as to food, water, energy, environmental degradation and horrible quality of life issues.

But guess what, we’re heading in the same direction.  We’re on course to dump 100 million third world immigrants onto America within 30 years—thanks to our incredibly stupid members of Congress.  We already suffer millions of kids with so many emotional, physical, nutritional and mental problems—that we cannot find solutions.  Cell phones addict kids to emotional, intellectual and physical dependence 24/7.  Fast foods addict them to Coke, Mt. Dew, Pepsi, triple cheeseburgers and greasy fries. Childhood obesity rates skyrocket off the graft. Diabetes runs off the charts!

Nonetheless, our leaders don’t do anything to change it.  Our governors feel helpless.  Mental health and obesity clinics grow ever more crowded while the illiterate poor simply ‘exist’ from day to day.

And yet, the rich could care less and they do less. Bill Gates pretends to do a few things, but he lacks any vision of the ghetto-educational problems facing America.

What would you do to solve the rich versus poor equation in America?  What ideas would you bring forth to educate students with low intellectual abilities and inner-city hopelessness?  What ideas can you bring to the table to ameliorate the cell phone addiction syndrome?  How would you stop the drug epidemic? How would you help bring the poor up to some decent-standard living conditions? How would you bring some kind of balance to the economics of America in order to give every child a shot at the American dream no matter how dumb, low IQ’d or parental history?

If we fail to find solutions, at some point the poor and illiterate will break our welfare systems, which will lead to racial, cultural and religious conflict that we can’t imagine.  Covid 19 will seem like a birthday party compared to what’s coming, sociologically.

Part 2: Korean War, Vietnam War, Desert Storm, Iraq War, Afghanistan War, 700 military bases in over 80 countries around the world

“Arise, then, women of this day! Arise all women who have hearts, whether our baptism be that of water or of tears!… We women of one country will be too tender of those of another country to allow our sons to be trained to injure theirs. From the bosom of the devastated earth a voice goes up with our own. It says “Disarm, Disarm! The sword of murder is not the balance of justice.” —Julia Ward Howe, 1870 From her Mother’s Day Proclamation for Peace

Since her lifetime, no one listened in America.

For nearly half my life, my beloved country, the United States of America has been waging war around the planet.  If not participating in wars, Americans fund 700 military bases in over 80 countries to ensure our dominance in places where it’s not wanted or needed.  President Thomas Jefferson told us not to engage in other countries’ conflicts.  The costs in lives and financial debt runs into the trillions of dollars.  All of it wasted, needless and pointless.

Since 1950, the U.S. Congress and presidents continually engaged America’s Armed Forces in useless, meaningless and deadly wars.  We interjected ourselves in a civil war in Korea. It killed 33,000 of our kids and wounded tens of thousands more.  It was none of our business and we have no right to solve other countries’ wars around the world. Why? Because countless conflicts erupt all over the world between different factions. It’s like trying to put out a forest fire with a squirt gun.

In 1964, our government, led by the Military Industrial Complex and elite corporation power brokers, created the Vietnam War. LBJ based it on the spurious “Tonkin Gulf Incident.”  It ran for 11 years, killed 58,220 American boys, wounded 150,000 more, and caused massive problems with drugs brought back by returning veterans. It cost children their fathers and the PTSD destroyed thousands of marriages. Today, thousands of drunk & drugged- out homeless veterans camp in every major city in America.  If you visit, you will see 62,000 homeless in Los Angeles and 11,000 homeless in San Francisco. Another 6,000 homeless ply the streets of Seattle.  New York City remains a nightmare of homeless people.  You all know what happened to Detroit!

Desert Storm killed several thousand of them and nearly 400 of our kids.  It proved nothing.

Afghanistan and Iraq wars have continued for 19 miserable, stupid and insane years at a cost of $6 trillion. Tens of thousands of lives from the battlefield or the enormous numbers of suicides of our troops remind us of the insanity of war as a solution. Iraq was based on the absolutely bogus “Weapons of Mass Destruction” mandate brought to us by President George W. Bush. He should share a cell with LBJ in hades for his lies that killed and crippled so many innocents.

The big question: since we killed bin Laden in 2011, why didn’t we pack up and go home? Answer: the Military Industrial Complex possesses an iron grip around our throats. We’re told that our troops are stopping the terrorists over there, so they won’t reach us. What a bunch of hogwash!

What’s worse: no one has won anything or proven anything or accomplished anything in Iraq or Afghanistan.  We have not saved our country from Islamic terror, but in fact, have imported 3.5 million Muslims who advocate for Sharia Law and against the U.S. Constitution.  As their numbers grow, we will see horrific religious, cultural and linguistic conflict growing in our country.  At some point it will explode, or we will simply devolve into massive slums that our best welfare cannot sustain. Note that some experts tell us that 9 out of 10 immigrants live on welfare without end—at a cost of trillions of dollars to taxpayers. Additionally, Islamic immigrants have created deadly bombings and shootouts to kill countless Americans inside our own country. Remember San Bernardino, Ft. Lauderdale, Orlando, Fort Hood, Fort Dix, NYC, 9/11, Garland, Texas, Rocky River, Ohio, 25 honor killings in the USA annually and much more we don’t know about.

Nazi General Hermann Goring said, “Why of course the people don’t want war. Why should some poor slob on a farm want to risk his life in a war when the best he can get out of it is to come back to his farm in one piece? Naturally the common people don’t want war: neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But after all it is the leaders of a country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy or fascist dictatorship, or a parliament or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the peace makers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.”

As you see, the power brokers don’t care about lives. They care about testing weapons, creating phantom enemies and hoodwinking the entire American public into “Support the Troops.”  As General Smedley Butler from WWI said, “War is a racket.”  He wrote a book about it showing that the money grubbers cared more about their bank accounts than human lives.

So, here I am in my 73^rd year thanking my lucky stars that I didn’t die in Vietnam. But a half dozen of my friends got killed or shot up.  Many more suffered horrific PTSD.  The drugs and alcohol swept away countless lives and families.

As I sit her ruminating about the last 55 years, and these continuous wars, I know the American people show kindness, decency, hopefulness and generosity—but our governmental elected officials subscribe to bribery, lies, lobbyists and the Military Industrial Complex more than integrity.  It’s exasperating.

What’s worse: big people with enormous financial power in high places are already dreaming up another war for our boys to fight and die, and those big people don’t care a twit.  And, they count on the American people to follow  through like sheep from the Hermann Goring statement.

Do you think we can continue on this warring path? How will we avoid financial collapse at $25 trillion in debt? Is it worth it as our cities rot and ghettoes proliferate? Have you visited Baltimore? How about Chicago? Isn’t there something wrong with spending $750 billion annually for war, when we’ve got 7 out of 10 Black children born out of wedlock and living with single mothers on welfare?  Do you see the problems with drug and opioid addictions that are being swept under the rug instead of solved?  What about Congress adding another 100 million incompatible immigrants within 30 years? Do you think we will survive that situation?

Coronavirus may have us by the throat right now, but don’t we face much bigger problems on the horizon?

As this world turns, each of us faces extraordinary challenges, ordeals, emotional pain, trauma, loss of loved ones and disappointments during our lives.  It goes with the territory of living.  Even at this point with a virus raging around the planet, we need to hold on to “hope.”

I remember vividly when Andy Dufresne (Tim Robbins) the lead character in the “Shawshank Redemption” sat in the corner of the prison yard with his friend (Red) Morgan Freeman discussing how Andy got swindled into prison by another man’s deeds.  As they sat there, Andy gave instructions to Morgan Freeman to look him up at his hotel on a beach in Mexico as he worked on an old boat getting it ready for charter fishing for his guests.  The only problem: Andy faced life in prison for ‘killing’ his wife, which, of course, he didn’t do the deed.  And the prison warden held Andy into a stranglehold of his life.  There was no chance for escape to a free life.  But for Andy, “hope” made anything possible.  Andy uttered uttered these iconic words, “It’s time to get busy livin’ or get busy dyin’.”  With that statement, he decided to get busy living.

Later, Andy dug his way out of prison, and with brilliance, walked into the banks in Portland, Maine to claim his accrued money that he surreptitiously purloined off the warden as the warden was scamming his slave prison labor.  He outsmarted the warden via the U.S. mail, crawled to freedom and skipped into Mexico. He left evidence of the warden’s evil deeds with the newspaper. The warden committed suicide as the cops came to lock him up.  Morgan Freeman reunited with his friend Andy in Mexico to show that Karma works.  Stephen King’s iconic book and movie will be seen 100 years from now by adoring audiences.  It epitomizes our struggles out of the darkness into the light.

At the same time, each of us enjoys the choices of creative thought, actions and deeds.  Since I have stood astride my bicycle for over 65 years, there’s a deep-seated joy in my soul.  From my Schwinn Wasp and my paper route in my teen years to my fancy road bikes, to my sturdy touring bikes, I’ve enjoyed great energy, tremendous joy and soulful fulfillment via touring around the world on my bicycle.

The one thing about riding a bicycle, especially a touring bicycle, it calls for your best integrity, your true grit that comes from your sterling character.  As you watch this movie of a man on a bicycle, you know how he feels.  You know every movement, jump, 360-degree turn, balancing act, and total flow, even under water took his fortitude, many failures and countless mistakes to gain his expertise.  From that, he gained his joy!

He will look back on his life and that video of him riding his bicycle through all the trials and tribulations as a metaphor for choices, and in fact, each of us makes those choices.

I am reminded of the great Roman philosopher Epictetus who said, “Tentative efforts lead to tentative outcomes. Therefore, give yourself fully to your endeavors. Decide to construct your character through excellent actions and determine to pay the price of a worthy goal.  The trials you encounter will introduce you to your strengths. Remain steadfast…and one day, you will build something that endures; something worthy of your potential.”

During this tenuous period in the United States, Canada, Europe and the world, let’s all pull together, do our part, build our bodies, strengthen our minds and practice compassion.  Let’s let our actions, our minds and spirits triumph individually and collectively.  May the God bless each and every one of us.

As it’s been said, “May the road rise up to meet you, may the wind be ever at your back. May the sunshine warm upon your face and the rain fall softly on your fields. And until we meet again, May God hold you in the palm of his hand.”

Be well for yourself and your family.

For what it’s worth, I receive Time Magazine to keep up on national and international news.  Often their writers speak out of two sides of their mouths.  They focus on one story but fail to inform the American people.

Last week, they wrote about a “9 Percent Drop in Insect Populations per Decade”  I responded to a letter to the editor.

Dear Time editors: (letters@timemagazine.com)

Re: “9 percent drop of insects per decade” Time, For the Record, May 11, 2020, page 4

You report the horrific calamities facing humanity such as “bee colony collapse” and this latest report with “9 percent drop of insects every decade.”  At the same time, you need to follow up with what causes it.  Answer: Habitat encroachment by humans as we continue expanding into their wilderness. Habitat poisoning with insecticides, herbicides, Agent Orange, Roundup and more with Monsanto, Bayer and Dow Chemical.

Why do you hide the facts on the culprits?  It’s your job to inform and educate the American people.  Otherwise, we blissfully use Roundup to kill our weeds and poison our ground water.  We spray glyphosates onto our gardens and poison our children with contaminated vegetables out of the poisoned soil. One my dear friends died from Parkinson’s Disease because he sprayed poisons over his tomato plants for years, until one day, he contracted PD.  You could have exposed that before he and tens of thousands became victims.

As a news magazine, I urge you to inform and educate so the American public can make better choices such as: not using Roundup or other herbicides and insecticides.  Choose biodegradable organics instead of poisons.  Utilize biodegradable cleaners like 7^th Generation or Melaleuca.  We can change what we are doing to ourselves and the animals with your exposing the facts and educating Americans to make more intelligent choices.

Thank you,

This past week, they wrote up a piece on Nancy Pelosi that infuriated me with its balderdash. I responded with a letter to the editor.

Dear Time editors: (letters@timemagazine.com)

Re: “Her Art of the Deal” on Nancy Pelosi, by Molly Ball, Politics, May 11, 2020, Time Magazine

Your portrayal of Nancy Pelosi failed to expose her ‘forever’ congressional career of 40 years as one of encouragement of endless legal and illegal immigration to saturate the United States with tens of millions of people, and border violators. She has never upheld her oath of office as to Article IV Section 4 of the U.S Constitution. Never once has she mandated US Code 8, Section 1324 on deporting illegal aliens out of our country. Those undocumented people cheat our taxpaying citizens out of jobs, depress wages for legal citizens, and degrade the value of citizenship. Americans pay for K-12, medical and free breakfast and lunches for tens of millions of foreign children dragged here by their parents to work illegally in America with immunity. She sponsors ‘sanctuary city’ policies in her state and across the nation with over 500 cities protecting those who violated our borders.

Her actions funded two wars in Iraq and Afghanistan for 19 years at a cost of $6 trillion to U.S. taxpayers: that accomplished nothing whatsoever, other than killing our best and brightest. Exactly who does she serve, the American taxpayer or the Military Industrial Complex, and/or insider trading that has made her a multimillionaire?

She dragged Americans through a two-year costly and inane “Mueller Investigation” that she knew was fruitless within six months, at a cost of millions. Additionally, she launched a vacant-knowing-she-would-lose impeachment without enough evidence to convict a cow of flatulating. Now she wants to blame the president for everything that she has created in her 40 years in Congress.

Nancy Pelosi stands as the pre-imminent example and desperate need for ‘term limits’ of 10 years maximum for all U.S. Congressional critters. We need fresh blood, fresher and younger minds and more creative solutions other than old, worn out and hackneyed politicians who don’t know what’s actually happening to the rest of us average Americans. She exemplifies Mark Twain’s comment, “Suppose you were an idiot and suppose you were a member of Congress…ah, but I repeat myself.”

Thank you,

Do you write letters to the editors of Time, or your local newspaper, or to your local television stations?  The best things you can do to make this Constitutional Republic work: stay involved. Speak up. Write up. Stand up. Vote, make noise, say something, write something and be a standup American citizen.

Can you make a difference?  Yes!

Part 1: Examination of cruelty around the planet to humans, plants, birds and animals

During this Coronavirus event that slows down our world for the duration, I ruminate about life on this planet.  In this series, let’s examine what humanity continues perpetrating on itself and other creatures.  As a species, we may need to examine what we’re doing to ourselves and all other creatures on this planet.

One of the darker aspects of humanity that haunts me: our propensity for cruelty.  Not only to ourselves, but to the animals as well as plants.  The violence to our own kind really unhinges my sense of moral and ethical behavior.  Here in America, a man commits violence against a woman every 15 seconds.  The statisticians record two to three deaths daily from men killing their wives or girlfriends.  As a teacher, for a summer job, I drove for United Van Lines for 30 summers. I saw violence up close and personal.  Out in the truck-stop parking lots, whores would get the hell kicked out of them by mean truckers.  Once I saw a guy roundhouse-punch a girl totally senseless. When my helper and I walked over to confront him, the girl regained consciousness and jumped up to defend him, “It was all my fault,” she said.  At that point, we walked away knowing our help would be futile.

When I taught in the ghetto in Grand Rapids, Michigan, parents whipped, beat and verbally abused their kids.  Gang members forced horrible initiation rituals for incoming members.  Even when I fled the ghetto after having my idealism completely crushed, I taught in a middle-class neighborhood in Denver, Colorado. Some parents took the steel end of a fly swatter and whipped their little girls with it to turn the kids’ legs purple.  I watched parents turn their kids into future criminals. Talk about having my idealism totally obliterated!

Then, I remember being a bouncer at a bar during college, and guys would come in looking for a fight.  I always managed the bar fights by keeping a chair held up between the aggressor and me. I didn’t want to get cut or get my teeth knocked out.

The cruelty toward women really pains me.  In the Muslim world, fathers, brothers, and uncles “honor kill” 20,000 innocent women annually according to the United Nations report on Honor Killings.  If they want a new wife, but can’t afford one, they kill one of their present wives.  They kill them for any reason by stoning, by knifing, by suffocating, shooting and by hanging them. In the USA today, we have an average of 25 honor killings annually by our Islamic immigrants according to Department of Homeland Security. I watched the press conference that exposed that harsh reality.

We also have 500,000 female genital mutilation cases in the USA, and the ‘cutters” are immune from the law. But it’s still assault and battery of a little girl!  In male dominated societies, women suffer being of less value than a dog.  It’s beyond painful to me because I’ve never hit, yelled at or degraded a woman for any reason.  It’s out of my realm to be so violent to another person.

And then, early Christians in America burned witches at the stake and beat their slaves in the 1700’s and 1800’s until the end of the Civil War.  I saw “12 Years a Slave” and it brought it all crashing down on me how one tribe of people could enslave another.

At the same time, slavery has been a stalwart of the human race from the dawn of recorded time.  The Egyptians forced countless thousands of slaves to build the pyramids.  The Chinese forced over 1 million slaves to build the Great Wall of China.  The British enslaved the Indians.  Hitler, Stalin, Mussolini, Mao and others killed millions and tortured countless more innocent people, along with the Jews in concentration camps and gas chambers.  Last week, the national news reported 265 million Africans at risk for starvation in the coming months.  It exasperates my sense of humanity.

And then, there’s the cruelty to animals here in America and abroad.  On a bicycle, I saw thousands of dogs locked up to 4-foot chains for their entire lifetimes or living in tiny cages.  And when the owner walked out to feed and water them, they wagged their tails in thanks.  I would bite the SOB for treating me so poorly.  And when I traveled through Asia, I saw those ‘wet markets’ and the incredible cruelty, no, make that ‘OBSCENE’ cruelty toward animals.  Chinese and Indians provide a whole new level of ugly human behavior.  But then, you see dog and rooster fights in Mexico and in the USA.  Spain’s bull fights show horrific brutality toward animals.  Remember the NFL quarterback Michael Vick’s vicious treatment of dogs?  He would still be sponsoring dog fights it if he hadn’t been caught. He was only the tip of the iceberg.

In Korea, Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan Wars—we’ve killed over 3,000,000 (million) innocent people since 1950.  Just slaughtered them with napalm, bombs and other insidious weaponry!  Talk about cruelty!

On the plant front, we cut down 95 percent of the redwoods in California in the 1800’s.  Only 5 percent survive with protection from www.SaveTheRedWoodsLeague.org from 1917.  We inject Agent Orange, DDT, Roundup, Weed B Gone, insecticides and more herbicides into the Natural World by the billions of tons of chemicals, annually.  Those poisons destroy everything in their path and all life.  It’s beyond sickening how our large corporations choose money over integrity, and you know who you are Dow Chemical, Monsanto, Bayer and the rest of you filthy, unethical, rich Robber Barons of the 21^st century.

And zoos, we cage animals that live to roam. In Denver, they’ve got this elephant in a tiny pen and he literally walks 100 feet to one corner and back every waking hour of the day.  He’s unhappy, distressed, caged, and confined for a God-awful exitence for the rest of his life.  Would you like to be that elephant?  It’s sickeningly inhumane. After that experience, I do not support caging another living creature just for humans’ amusement.

In this short report, I can’t begin to cover the range and depth of humans’ cruelty to themselves, animals and plants. I’ll bet you could name a dozen methods for yourself.

To confront the cruelty, I do my part by giving money to ASPCA, Best Friends Animal Society, Humane Society, PETA and many other animal-care organizations. I also give to women’s shelters and other organizations protecting women. I give to Nature Conservancy, Greenpeace, Sea Shepard, Marine Mammal Fund and many more.

But it all seems futile because the cruelty continues, the beatings continue, and the deaths continue.  It’s like humans have not progressed since the time of the brutal Roman Empire.

As you read this column, those two wars continue.  Beatings and deaths of wives and girlfriends continue.  Honor killings continue.  Brutality to animals continues non-stop 24/7.  And we call ourselves a civilized society?

Have you experienced what I’ve witnessed? Have you seen cats set on fire or thrown into a microwave? How do you feel about it? What have you done about it?  Does it hurt you as much as it hurts me?  Is there any way we who care can take action to stop cruelty to humans and animals, and bring some semblance of sanity to our communities?   Can we educate our young toward a more peaceful and loving existence?

Coming Thursday Part 2: Our ghettos, inner cities, poor, homeless, drugs

Have you noticed the news lately around the world?  With the coronavirus bringing the big cities to nearly a standstill, the air pollution indexes dropped significantly within the past 40 days in Los Angeles, Mexico City, Beijing, Chicago, Mumbai and other multi-million-person cities.

Of course, once we create a vaccine to neutralize the virus, the human race will re-engage its methodical rampage on the Natural World.  We’ll jump back to burning 100 million barrels of oil 24/7.  We’ll ramp up the electrical plants by burning billions of tons of coal.  Our cities will return to gridlocked congestion while the Brown Cloud over them increases in its lethal toxicity.

As you know, my Facebook page, under the name of Frosty Wooldridge, enjoys countless people from around the world sending me information on what’s happening in their neck of the woods.

This past week, a new YouTube movie, at 1 hour and 50 minutes, titled “Planet of the Humans”, directed by Jeff Gibbs gives a stunning view of the riptide created by humans as they devour natural resources around the planet. What’s a ‘riptide’?  It is a violent undercurrent beneath the surface of the ocean that can suck you under and kill you in a minute. As a lifelong scuba diver, I know the power of those riptides. It’s a very good metaphor for this movie.  It’s what we don’t or can’t see that will kill us.  The video movie is free, so I clicked it for a viewing while I took notes.  You may access it here.

It’s very sobering for anyone who cares about the future of the United States, and in fact, for the entire world.  Why? Because we humans and everything we do, affects the rest of the planet.  And, as shown by the movie, many corporations continue to ‘fool’ us, and the ‘do-gooders’ like Sierra Club, Citi Bank and many others continue to undermine the American people—all for money of course!  The movie documents the “Green Movement” toward bio-fuels only to discover that major corporations continue to create a façade of ‘caring’ for the future.

In the past, most governmental actions under the Military Industrial Complex, also commanded by Wall Street giants, forced us into all the wars any of us baby boomers have endured since 1965.  But of course, the Korean War and those who fought it, also faced the fraudulent contracts, but didn’t know it.  Most of those Korean veterans thought they were fighting for freedom and their country. When in fact, they fought for pouring money into banker’s wallets.

The same kind of shenanigans continue today, but the Internet allows you to understand the fraudulent behavior of your U.S. Congress and the people who own them.  That’s why we suffer 19 yearlong wars that are neither won nor lost, but continue for profits for powerful men in dark and high places.

Now, with the entire planet reeling from incredible abuses to the Natural World, i.e., “Sixth Extinction Session” ; 5 trillion plastic pieces floating in and under our oceans; catastrophic climate destabilization;  70,000 chemicals injected into the air, water and land 24/7, burning the rainforests into extinction and the list accelerates, we’ve got movies like this one to inform, educate and motivate us to action.

So, please take time to watch this movie.  It directly affects you and your children if you or they will be alive in 2050.

Please understand that all great social movements started at the ground level.  No one in Washington DC stopped the Vietnam War. The baby boomer generation stopped it by marching, burning draft cards and tossing worthless metals back over the White House fence at Nixon.  No one in Washington DC gave the vote to America’s women. They marched, demonstrated and grabbed ears of Congress. No one gave equal rights to the Blacks until Martin Luther King marched.

What do you want for your children in the 21^st century?  After watching this movie, what will you do to take action?  Will you mobilize at the local, state or national level? What talents and skills do you bring to the table?

Can you continue to be disinterested, uninvolved and apathetic toward the future of your children?  After watching the movie, what newer understandings are you considering?   Do you realize that the worst decision you can make is to think you can do so little, that you do nothing at all?

Can you change the future toward a sustainable civilization?  What actions will that take?  What will you tell your children?  How will they be affected?

Summation: the 21^st century will prove the continuance of the human race because we made significant changes toward sustainable future, or, if we continue on our current path of endless resource destruction and population increase, as shown by “Planet of the Humans”, we could very well see some very rough sledding ahead.

P.S. Thank you for the hundreds of supportive letters you wrote from my last column. You’re very kind. God bless you, your family and friends and let’s do our best to make through this pandemic.

Last Thursday, April 23, 2020, I wrote a column titled:  An Even Greater Threat Looming Beyond Coronavirus Pandemic.  It chronicled the risk of America being overrun, overwhelmed and besieged with legal immigrants to the tune of adding another 100 million, net gain, by 2050—a scant 30 years from now.  It pointed out the consequences to our country and our civilization.

Included in the column were two videos, the first showed how the third world adds 83 million new babies, net gain, annually.   The second video showed what America would face with an added 100 million immigrants-refugees by 2050 and 625 million by 2095 at current immigration levels.  If you were one of the people who wrote a letter protesting my column, did you watch both videos?  Were you not stunned?  Do you want that kind of a future for your children?

Irate emails by readers ensued that assumed that I advocate “population control.”   Let’s make this 100 percent and crystal clear: I have NEVER supported or advocated  for “population control”, ever!  I have never supported abortion, EVER!  You cannot find nor will you find anything I’ve ever written in 50 years supporting the taking of innocent life via abortion.

Please be advised that I attend church every Sunday for most of my life.  At this point, my wife and I watch church services through audio/visual video from our church.  I pray daily, in fact, twice daily.  I pray for health for all and a better world.  I am also the son of a United States Marine and I served as an officer in the United States Army. I have never done anything to embarrass my parents, ever.  I love America to the last cell in my body.  I stand for America and you with every commentary I write.  I hope for a viable and sustainable future for every legal American citizen whether black, white, brown, yellow, red and otherwise.  I have read and support the United States Constitution. I vote in every election. I give my money to over 20 different charities.  I do charity work. I have picked up over 1 million pieces of trash in my lifetime because I care about this planet.  I’ve attempted to mandate a national 25 cent deposit-return law for metals, plastics, glass and other containers to preserve our resources and the landscape. I push for alternative energy.  I am sick of what we’ve done to the oceans with 5 trillion pieces of plastic floating and sunk under the waves, worldwide.

The fact is:  since Earth Day 1970 when humans hit 3.5 billion, American women via birth control by the pill or IUD or Norplant have averaged 2.03 children per woman.  That’s by intelligent choice. We maintain a stable and sustainable population.  At the same time, the third world women birthed an added 4.1 billion people to reach 7.6 billion—totally being irresponsible to themselves, their children and the planet. Over 4 million children starve to death annually according to the United Nations. Another 8 million adults starve to death!

What do I stand for?  I advocate for “controlling immigration” by stopping it for 20 years in order for our country to regain itself.  If you watched the first video by Roy Beck, you realize that the third world will not stop having babies, and will add another 3 billion by 2050, and that those babies are starving, illiterate and/or looking for a new country to land.  If you didn’t watch the video, watch it now: Immigration, Gumballs, Poverty by Roy Beck (five minutes)

That video is why I advocate for “controlling immigration” into America.  Because if we fail to control immigration into our country, we WILL lose our country to a very overwhelmed, nasty and conflicted future.  Again, do you want that for your kids?   Because I guarantee you, as a six continent world bicycle traveler, I’ve seen what happened in China, India, Pakistan, Mexico, South America, Bangladesh, Africa and other overpopulated countries-continents.

If you’re going to write letters to the publisher good or bad, write them to me, too—so I can give you the facts.  I love America, I love you as an American and I love what America can provide for your children, IF we survive the immigration invasion by stopping it.

As a man who has seen the consequences of overpopulation firsthand in my world travels, I can state emphatically:  we’re not going to survive another 100 million immigrants and their offspring.  Because this video shows what it will look like:  Immigration off the Charts by Roy Beck: (9 minutes)

If this video doesn’t sober you, I don’t know what else I can do to spell it out for you.

For every person who reads this commentary, please know that I bring the facts, I bring my world experiences, and I bring you wisdom of my 73 years of unique world bicycle travel, unlike anyone you’ve ever read across this country.  I graduated from Michigan State University in journalism, thus, I learned how to research and write at the professional level. Unlike the “fake news” you receive from highly paid journalists who keep Americans in the dark as to our immigration predicament, the fact remains that I don’t get paid a dime for my work or all the research and time it takes to write thousands of columns. I write to educate and inform you because I love my country, your country, our country—and the future of your children.

In the end, what do you think about adding another 100 million immigrants to America? Do you think it will benefit your children? Will doubling the size of our 35 most populated cities because of the immigrants’ onslaught make those cities more viable, sustainable, livable, enjoyable, brimming with fresh air, un-congested highways, and quality of life overflowing?  Will that next 100 million people allows us plenty of water, energy and resources?  Can you speak up as to all the good things those immigrants are going to bring to America?  If you do, would you like me to write a series of columns celebrating the wonders of another 100 million immigrants?

If you have time, write a bunch of “thank you” letters so that I know that someone in America actually appreciates my work.  Thank you and God bless America and you.  And, we should make it through this Coronavirus, but do you think we will survive another 100,000,000 (million) immigrants?  frostyw@juno.com

Eleanor Roosevelt said, “We must prevent human tragedy rather than run around trying to save ourselves after an event has already occurred. Unfortunately, history clearly shows that we arrive at catastrophe by failing to meet the situation, by failing to act when we should have acted. The opportunity passes us by and the next disaster is always more difficult and compounded than the last one.”

Years earlier, Winston Churchill said much the same thing, “Want of foresight, unwillingness to act when action would be simple and effective, lack of clear thinking, confusion of counsel until the emergency comes, until self-preservation strikes its jarring gong – these are the features which constitute the endless repetition of history.”

Registered Nurse Stephany Gabbard in 2003, in the book Immigration’s Unarmed Invasion: Deadly Consequences, said, “Immigrants bring diseases into the United States that were unheard of a few years ago and the problem is—they are spreading to US citizens across the country. We are importing a multiple disease epidemic into this nation.”

We face an ominous threat to our existence as a free Constitutional Republic because of Covid 19.  But beyond that, we face an even greater future threat to the very survival of our civilization.

The latest copy of Time Magazine, April 27, 2020, “Finding Hope”, a special report on Coronavirus, interviewed a dozen world leaders.  They all spoke about coming together to defeat this Covid 19 pandemic.  Time editors addressed every problem facing America, EXCEPT the single greatest problem bearing down on us like Hurricane Katrina hitting all 50 states for days, weeks, months and beyond.

I visited China in 1984. What I witnessed changed my world view. They eat ‘anything that moves’ and their sanitation equals the lowest of third world countries. Their cruelty to animals sets the benchmark for inhumane, God-awful horrors and lack of morality.  On top of that, their 1.4 billion people crawl and smother the landscape.  Same with India, Pakistan and Bangladesh.  It’s astounding that plagues haven’t wiped out the majority of those hapless, unsanitary and overpopulated countries.

And yet, Time Magazine’s entire special report made NO mention of the main driver of lowered quality of life, diseases, pandemics and hunger in those countries: human overpopulation.

That’s why my beef with America’s mainstream media grows: the heads of the major networks and newspapers refuse to educate the American people as to what’s it’s going to look like as we import another 100 million legal immigrants into our country by 2050—in a blink of time.

Thus, the American public remains like the frog in the pot of water that lounges while the burner raises the temperature to boiling—and dies thinking he’s enjoying a sauna bath.

Therefore, I urge you to take action instead of mimicking the frog.  We need a national discussion-debate on what we’re bequeathing to our children in 30 years.  Will we continue to lounge while we add that 100 million people or will we change course?    Are you going to sit by and watch your children face a ‘new’ America that jumped from 300 million in 2006 to 440 million by 2050?

Are you as angry as I am at Time, Newsweek, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, New York Times, ABC, CBS, NBC, NPR, PBS, 60 Minutes, CNN and FOX?  None of them will educate any of us as to what’s coming.

Are you willing to take 15 minutes to make impact on Time Magazine?  Here’s my letter to them. You may copy it and customize it to your own needs.  Let’s flood their “Letter to the Editor” office.  Do the same with the networks on Social Media such as FB, LinkedIn, Twitter, Yelp and more.  You can send this same letter to FOX, NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, NPR and more on Facebook. What are you waiting for?

Dear Time editors:  (letters@time.com)

RE: Time Magazine Special Report: Finding Hope, April 27, 2020, interviews with top leaders worldwide to solve the pandemic

Thank you for featuring world leaders attempting to pave the way for a better tomorrow for all human beings.  At the same time, with the pandemic raging across the globe, not one of your interviews dealt with humanity’s mega-crisis of the 21^st century: human overpopulation.

According to the United Nations, we remain on course to add 3,000,000,000 (billion) of ourselves within 30 years.  Scientific fact: exponential growth always leads to collapse.  This reality must be addressed:  if we fail to stabilize human numbers around the globe, and gracefully decline them via birth control, to live within the carrying capacity of this planet—all cries for solutions provide only a respite to the ultimate collapse of our biosphere, environment, quality of life and standard of living.

Instead of emotional pleas, please interview top experts like Chris O. Clugston with his book: Blip—Humanity’s 300-year self-terminating experiment with industrialism.  Edward C. Hartman’s book: America’s Population Fix.  Peak Everything: Waking Up to a Century of Decline by Richard Heinberg, Dave Foreman’s book: Man Swarm and the Killing of Wildlife.  Frosty Wooldridge: America on the Brink: The Next Added 100 Million Americans.  The Long Emergency: Surviving the End of Oil  by James Howard Kunstler.  Chasing Water: The End of Abundance by Brian Ritcher.  SKIL.org by Dr. Jack Alpert.

This pandemic will pass, but humanity faces LARGER problems with its unsustainable numbers.  Time Magazine needs to research and offer the American public a special issue on what will happen to America with the projected 100,000,000 (million) more people, added, net gain, within 30 years.  As a six continent world bicycle traveler who has seen it all firsthand, it’s not going to be pretty for future generations.  Don’t you think it’s a good idea to educate Americans so they can choose to change course for their children?  How will your children feel if you don’t provide a special report and they face the year 2050 with 10 billion humans on an ecologically crippled planet?

Thank you,

Your name —-
Address —-
Ph. Number —-

Will you fulfill Eleanor Roosevelt’s quote?  How about Winston Churchill’s wisdom?  Do you want to allow RN Stephany Gabbard’s prediction to come true?  Are you going to let 2050 happen to your kids?  Do you want to see our 35 most populated cities double in size?  How will we sustain them?  Where will we find more fresh water to hydrate that 100 million more people?  How about feeding them?  How will we solve the dozens of consequences of adding THAT many people?

The worst decision you can make is to think you can do so little that you do nothing at all.

As to your actions, if not now, then when?  If not you, then who?

If you look at these two videos, you will see exactly what I am speaking about:

As of this past Sunday night, America suffered 755,000 Coronavirus cases and 41,000 deaths.  For each death, a loved one feels shock, pain and horrific loss.  Whether it’s a mother, father, child, friend, grand parent or someone in your community—we all face a national calamity.  I, honest to God, break down in tears when I watch the national news.  This is my country, this is our country, and these are our countrymen and women.  This pandemic baffles me.  How and why?  What happened in Wuhan, China?  What person gave this virus frivolous thought and let the “Kraken” escape upon humanity?

Since I am a baby boomer, I’ve witnessed a lot of tragedies around the world in the past 55 years of my adult life.  I’ve seen opioid drug overdoses, suicides of our teens, 10 years of Vietnam war deaths, 19 years of Iraq and Afghanistan war deaths, car deaths, lung cancer deaths, heart attack deaths and the other hundred ways of dying. But this Covid 19 frightens me most of all because I can’t confront it.  It’s going to kill more of us, maybe even someone in my family or me.

As I look at my father and mother’s photos in my office at the side of my computer, even though they have passed, I feel their presence with me daily to give me courage to face the day.   I hope my siblings and their children remain healthy.  I hope my two sons remain healthy.

Hopefully, you too, practice the accepted protocols for yourself and your family.  We’re going to get through this, but it’s not going to be easy or pretty.

At the same time, we need to come to terms with the fact that this disease kills less than two percent of its infected victims.  We face far more deaths in America from a dozen other maladies.  Each day, 1,700 Americans die of heart attacks in the USA from being overweight.  Another 1,600 die from cancer.  About 1,200 smokers die of lung cancer every day, 24/7. They chose their early deaths via a lifetime of sucking on a cigarette.  Diabetes kills over 85,000 Americans annually from choosing obesity.  Another 40,000 driving deaths!  Around 13 teens die from overdose of drugs hourly according to the CDC.  Prostate cancer kills 45,000 men annually.  Over 500,000 people fall off ladders annually resulting in hundreds of deaths.

Out 330 million people in America, Covid 19 may be tragic for that two percent, but we must come to terms with its minor death rate.  In other words, if we fail to get back to work, we could see this entire civilization and its economy drop out from under us and millions would die from lack of food—once the food growing and distribution chain breaks down.

We may have to wear masks everywhere in public.  We may have to home school.  We may have to order out and pickup.  We may have to zoom church services.  We may have do everything differently, but must get back to work.

What other aspects of Covid 19’s onslaught of America come to your mind?  Can you take a few minutes to think about what we are doing to ourselves as a civilization?  What would you do to alleviate what our country faces?

Do you think it’s wise to import 100,000 refugees monthly into our country as per the dictates of our U.S. Congress?  Do you think all those legal refugees at 1.2 million annually, streaming into our country continues as a positive?  How about the diseases they carry or worse, how about their cultural proclivities for unsanitary living?

Can we absorb another projected 100 million of them?  What will that do for “density” of our cities and “compaction” of our living conditions? Can our cities continue exponential growth forever?  How does that endless growth equate to quality of life in our cities and communities as they explode out of their britches?

Hopefully, will you, no matter what your state or community, give serious thought to what our country faces and what your kids face if we remain on course?  Do you think this pandemic stands as a canary in the coal mine?

Do you remember the adage, “If you’re going down the road and you realize you’re going the wrong way—stop, turn around and walk back to the beginning.  Choose a new road that will get you safely to your destination.”

Do you think our country heads along the right road by importing 100,000,000 (million) foreigners to our ranks within 30 years?  How do you think it will logically turn out?   Do you think it’s time to change course?  What actions will you take to help Washington DC change course?

One of the issues that escapes most Americans, certainly our U.S. Congress, and even President Trump: our exploding population density.  Our ever-closer proximity, our ever-growing density and our overcrowded cities create havoc for the Natural World.  Unfortunately, few leaders connect the dots, either here or worldwide.

I spoke with one of America’s foremost environmentalists, Leon Kolankiewicz, on why our leaders along with the main stream media refuse to put 2 and 2 together to arrive at the obvious answer, which is four!  I’ve known him and read his work for 20 years. He’s irrefutably one of the finest specialists in America today who keeps ringing the bell on human overpopulation’s consequences. As a world traveler, he’s seen what I have seen in my own travels.  Hopefully, his voice reaches the major networks where he might expound on what we face as a civilization.

Mr. Kolankiewicz, give us an idea of what we face and why we face it:

“The current pandemic is perhaps the inevitable outcome of an unprepared, globalized, borderless, overpopulated world,” he said. “And the importance of borders is clear: In addition to all the obvious medical measures, more than ever the world needs borders, population stabilization, and more ethical approaches to our non-human neighbors on this ever smaller planet.”

“It seems like just yesterday that I was warning about the threat of viral pandemics on our overpopulated, interconnected planet. 

“In fact the year was 2014, at the time of the last horrific outbreak of the deadly Ebola virus in Africa, which went on to kill thousands. The first ever case of this lethal disease had just been diagnosed in the United States. 

“Back then, I wrote words that could almost have been penned again just yesterday:

“It was perhaps inevitable that this terrifying scourge should arrive on our own shores, given its exponential growth in West Africa, its long incubation period, the ease of international air travel, and the sheer number of both returning Americans and foreigners (tens of millions of travelers and migrants annually) entering the United States from abroad.

“Today with Covid 19, just substitute “China” for “West Africa.”

“Even earlier than that, back in 2009, I warned in a radio interview during the Swine Flu epidemic that: 

“If they could speak, what would germs or viruses call millions of weakened, malnourished people living in overcrowded conditions? Answer: A feast!”

“Understandably, no one listened to me, an obscure environmental scientist and blogger. But you would think they’d have paid more attention to the prestigious and well-connected Rand Institution in 2012 when it warned that pandemics were “capable of destroying America’s way of life.” 

“Or maybe U.S. authorities would have and should have been more inclined to lend an ear to Microsoft founder and mega-philanthropist Bill Gates, richest man in the world for much of the past two decades, when he warned in a 2005 TED talk that the greatest risk of a global catastrophe was “not missiles, but microbes.” 

“Gates re-issued his warning in another 2015 TED talk called “The next outbreak? We’re not ready,” now viewed by more than 18 million on YouTube. 

“The first lesson of the 2020 coronavirus/COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic for Americans and most other nationalities is how little heeded warnings of such predictable catastrophes are – even when amplified by reputable, prestigious sources with large public platforms and considerable megaphones. 

“Most ordinary folks are just too caught up in life’s day-to-day travails and pleasures, and most public officials too busy in putting out fires. Thus, neither heeds dire warnings of some sweeping disaster that might (or might not) happen over the next decade (even though it’s inevitable over the next several decades or century) or to invest adequately in preparedness for the future. They (we) all ignore the Boy Scouts’ motto to “be prepared,” and they (we) do so at our common peril.

“The second lesson is that we are in part a victim of our own technological and scientific hubris In the 1950s, dazzled by the stunning advances of antibiotics and vaccines in conquering humanity’s ancient microbial enemies, some in the medical profession had the audacity – now perceived in hindsight as incredibly naïve – to prophesize the imminent elimination of all infectious diseases from the world. 

“This led to a certain complacency on the part of society, when all along scientists knew that, 1) Nature abhors a vacuum; 2) Nature is dynamic, not static or stagnant, and 3) organisms evolve. The moment we began throwing antibiotics at microbial bugs was the very moment they began evolving resistance to them. Feeding antibiotics to increase the growth (and profitability) of livestock destined for our dinner tables was not an optimal long-term strategy to manage and integrate food production and public health.

“Third, zoonotic diseases – those caused by viruses, bacteria, or parasites that can spread from non-human animals or wildlife to human beings – are a major threat to Homo sapiens. Some 75% of emerging infectious diseases we face are believed to come from animals. These include the coronavirus at the center of the current pandemic.”

I’ve seen what you’ve seen in my own world travels.  I’ve been tooting my own horn over the past 30 years, to no avail.  Leon, why aren’t America’s leaders connecting the dots? 

“This is an incredible irony, because the big picture is that humans and our domesticated livestock (e.g., cattle, pigs, sheep, chickens) are literally taking over the planet. 

“As shown in the diagram below from the UK group Population Matters (permission given to republish the graph), based on the research of University of Manitoba ecologist Vaclav Smil, some 10,000 years ago, just before the advent of agriculture, if one added up the weight of all the land vertebrates then living on Earth, the combined population of human beings comprised about 1% of that total weight, or biomass. 

“Back then, prior to the Agricultural Revolution, there were no livestock. 

“Nowadays, in stark contrast, humans comprise some 32% of the total terrestrial biomass, and our livestock another 67%, for a total of 99%. In essence, we have replaced all but 1% of all wild birds, mammals, amphibians, and reptiles with ourselves and the domestic animals that we maintain to feed us.” 

“At the same time, humans have spread diseases to remaining wildlife populations around the world,” said Kolankiewicz.  “Including the fungus that causes White-nose Syndrome, which has wiped out tens of millions of bats in eastern North America, and chytridiomycosis, the lethal fungus causing a precipitous worldwide decline in amphibian populations. The tiny golden toad of Costa Rica’s cloud forests succumbed to the chytrid fungus only a quarter century after science first discovered and described it.” 

“At the same time, humans have spread diseases to remaining wildlife populations around the world,” said Kolankiewicz. “Including the fungus that causes White-nose Syndrome, which has wiped out tens of millions of bats in eastern North America, and chytridiomycosis, the lethal fungus causing a precipitous worldwide decline in amphibian populations. The tiny golden toad of Costa Rica’s cloud forests succumbed to the chytrid fungus only a quarter century after science first discovered and described it.” 

Costa Rica’s golden toad, last observed in 1989 and officially declared extinct in 2004

“Yet paradoxically, even as wildlife is indisputably disappearing from Planet Earth because of human overpopulation, we humans seem to be more than ever at risk to the diseases they carry. Several factors account for this. 

“One factor is the cruel “wet markets” that are widespread in China and other Asian countries, where farmed and captured wild animals such as bats, snakes, and pangolins are kept confined in crowded and unsanitary conditions prior to their slaughter, often right in front of a customer. These hellholes for hapless animals – where the blood, guts, and feces of myriad creatures are intermingled – have been called incubators of zoonotic diseases like the coronavirus. 

A “wet market”

“Two other factors are the growth in human populations and the increase in human population density. In their 1968 classic, The Population Bomb, biologists Paul and Anne Ehrlich warned that overpopulation often breeds the high population density and unhygienic living conditions that facilitate the spread of a wide variety of contagious infectious diseases. 

“In the context of the current crisis with the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, The New York Times referred to New York City’s density as its “big enemy” in the fight against the coronavirus, which propagates readily when people are in close proximity to one another. 

A final factor is one that NumbersUSA.org supporters are all too aware of: increasing rates of migration and mobility. In Vaclav Smil’s fascinating 2019 MIT Press book Growth: From Microorganisms to Megacities, which Bill Gates calls “Vaclav Smil’s latest masterpiece,” the master ecologist writes that during the “Spanish” flu pandemic a century ago:

“In 1918, the Atlantic crossing took six days on a liner able to carry mostly between 2,000 and 3,000 passengers and crew; now it takes six to seven hours on a jetliner carrying 250-450, and more than 3 million passengers now travel annually just between London’s Heathrow and New York’s JFK airport.

“The current pandemic is perhaps the inevitable outcome of an unprepared, globalized, borderless, overpopulated world. Let’s hope that we’ll learn from the lessons cited here, which are about more than the merits of additional social distancing, ventilators, hospital beds, and personal protective equipment (PPE).

“In addition to all the obvious medical measures, more than ever the world needs borders, population stabilization, and more ethical approaches to our non-human neighbors on this ever-smaller planet.”

After speaking with Leon, I grow more concerned for America’s fate.  Because of our U.S. Congress and its horrid immigration levels of over 100,000 refugees every 30 days, we remain on course to add another 100,000,000 people by 2050.  Again, disease, germs and viruses love “proximity” and “density” of humans or any animals. 

Dear fellow American, all great social movements began at the ground level, with “We the people, in order to form a more perfect union….”  Since those jokers in Washington DC refuse to act on the connection and consequences of endless immigration, it’s up to you to force this issue onto the front pages of America.  We need to change course the very survival of our civilization. Get on Social Media and start ranting, writing, suggesting, pushing and moving this issue to the front page of every paper, every TV talk show and onto the radio shows.  I’ve got 50 top immigration-population specialist who will bring the facts and solutions.

So, what are you going to do about it?  Will you sit by and watch as it consumes your children?  Or, will you call your senators and House member to urge them to stop all immigration into America?  Would you like to be around once that next 100 million people lands on this country?  Do you want your kids around when it does?  Do you want to know more and take action?  Join 10 million other Americans of every walk of life to change course:  www.NumbersUSA.org

On December 7, 1941, President Franklin D. Roosevelt said, “The only thing we have to fear, is fear itself.”

Today, in this Covid 19 world, we need not fear what’s happening, but instead, use our brains, our sanitary practices and our knowledge to defeat this viral enemy. It’s a mindless adversary with only one talent: to transmit itself through human proximity.

At the same time, we might understand that this virus brings a moment of reflection to our lives, communities and nation.

For the moment, let’s look at the hysteria foisted upon us by the mainstream media. In the last 28 days of this epidemic, 21,000 Americans suffered death while over 500,000 Americans have been infected. That’s around 2 percent death rate.

At the same time, 1,700 Americans die of heart attacks, daily. Another 1,600 die from cancer, daily. Another 227 die from being overweight via diabetes, daily. Over 450,000 Americans die from lung cancer annually by their own hand: smoking. Prostate cancer kills 44,000 men annually. All of those deaths easily preventable by nutrition and exercise! Medical doctors kill off 100,000 Americans by prescribing drugs that cause a reaction and death, annually. Car accidents kill off 38,000 Americans annually. Half of those deaths from drunk drivers! Texting while driving kills over 4,100 annually! Around 527,000 people die from falling off ladders and buildings, annually. Around 6,000 die from being shot. Knife stabbings run around 1,600 annually. Thousands of teenagers die of drug overdoses, annually. The opioid crisis killed over 70,000 in 2019, or over 130, daily.

What questions does this raise as to our choices in this high-speed society? Answer: it’s driving a lot of people to death via emotional imbalances, mental anguish and cultural addictions such as tobacco, drugs and alcohol. In other words, we commit ourselves to death much more by our own hands than Covid 19.

Let’s pause to reflect. What are we doing or not doing as a society to bring on this much death to ourselves, and, so systematically? Why haven’t we addressed it? Found solutions? Why haven’t we taken action to implement positive results?

In my own life, I’ve thought about these items in the past 27 days of self-quarantine:

With the renewal of springtime in our country, may we contemplate deeper thoughts, introspection and balance. Perhaps we might play in the yard with our kids daily. I know my dad played baseball with us every spring and summer. He coached us in football. Mom and dad watched every game in basketball and track. Dad stood on the tennis court to watch us grow. I can’t thank my mother and father enough for their nurturing my siblings and me through our younger years.

Is it more meaningful to ride your bike with your kids or walk down the street with them and your spouse?

Instead of that smart phone addiction, how about enjoying the activities of life with friends and family?

What about cooking dinner with your family?

How is remote work more efficient and better for the environment?

Do you need new clothes, trinkets, and devices to be happy?

What about growing a garden to connect you to the earth?

Maybe if enough people wake up to a better way of life, then we can define new metrics of collective success and the myth of endless growth can be repudiated.

Perchance we can create sustainable local economies that don’t require exploitation of anonymous workers and landscapes around the globe.

Maybe we can rediscover a passion for civic engagement and reinvigorate the public square.

Perhaps we might care for this wondrous planet much better in the months and years ahead, because in the end, Mother Earth provides us with the ability to live our marvelous lives.

What did my wife Sandi and I do over the weekend? We bicycled to our favorite “Meditation Rock” where we removed our shoes and socks, and planted our feet on the rock for “grounding” ourselves to the planet and its healing vibrations. We gazed over the wilderness, listened the chirping of the black capped chickadees, crows, eagles, robins, sparrows and chattering of the squirrels. We picked up four large bags of trash along the roadway to leave that area much more beautiful. We shared virtual church services. We watched “Highway to Heaven” with the late Michael Landon of “Bonanza” as he came back to Earth as an “angel” to help people out of their own jams. We sat on the front steps to say high to our neighbors and their dogs as they walked about.

(Grounding is a proven method for reharmonizing your body, mind and spirit with the vibrations of this planet. It takes 15 minutes to draw the negative vibrations out of your body and infuse your body with positive vibrations, much like the action of a battery. Keep yourself healthfully charged by “grounding” everyday or as often as possible.)

And with the hope of spring, we filled our hummingbird feeders with nectar in anticipation that our marvelous aerial friends will once again herald the delights of summer.

As to you dear fellow American, thank you for your positive attitude, your conscientious 10-foot social distancing, respect for sanitation and a sense of expectation for better things to come.

“May the road rise up to meet you, may the wind be ever at your back. May the sunshine warm upon your face and the rain fall softly on your fields. And until we meet again, May God hold you in the palm of his hand.”

This week, quite a few responses arrived in my “inbox” concerning my column last week, “I cry for my country: A baby boomer’s Lament.”

One reader complained, “It’s all your generation’s fault for what’s happening to America today.”

He said, “I’m 38, so I’m either the oldest millennial or the youngest generation X’er. Who knows?  My point is most of us 30’s guys all believe the boomers are what happened to this country and why we are now going down like the Titanic.”

He complained that we created Earth Day in 1970, but with all our enthusiasm for stopping the Vietnam War and saving the planet, we returned to the “make money” path that led to the largest consumer- civilization in history, and we destroyed the environment of the planet in the process.

“I literally still make the same wages per hour did when I was eighteen,” he said. “I was the pastry chef at my state’s most awarded fine dining restaurant. But when you look at the fact they pay no overtime with salary and work us 65 hours a week, I’m still making the $13.00 per hour.  I did the same at UPS throwing boxes 20 years ago.”

No question, wages have been kept low because of endless and continuous infusion of foreign labor as to H1-B, H2-A, Diversity Visas, 1 million refugees annually, birthright babies, and chain-migration. Not to mention 500,000 illegal migrants annually, year after year, decade after decade.

“The boomers took all the money,” he said. “I once heard my police- chief brother-in-law ask a millionaire why he only pays his guys $12.50 per hour.  The boomer’s response? ‘I don’t want them to be able to leave. I pay them enough for rent, a truck and a Mountain Dew, and they’re happy enough.’”

Unbridled and unethical capitalism in the hands of America’s corporate elites definitely keeps the average American worker in the poor house.  Guess what?  The corporate elites, no different from the kings and queens of Old Europe, don’t give a twit. Money begets power and power creates the ruling class in every civilization since the dawn of humanity.

He complained, “That’s disgusting. People over 65 now control well over half the money in the USA. Gee, why are millennials so “lazy and malcontent”? Because we bust our butts, and no one will share or even pay us a living wage.

“Also, the boomer controlled government of our country allowed mass illegal immigration to keep wages down, allowed feminists to ruin our workplaces and families, allowed a certain desert tribe living in an ethno-state to take over our entire media (Islam), and watched as their sons were demonized so their potential wives run to foreign ethnic groups for breeding. The list can continue for miles….

“When this lockdown lets up and the zoomers realize what the boomers have done, it ain’t gonna be the millennials you have to worry about. And I will salute the young-ins as they express their emotions.”

That’s the voice of frustration, the loss of the American Dream, the complete disregard for American citizens first, and/yet putting foreigners to the head of the line, whether at Silicon Valley or affirmative action quotas.

When you look at the vacancies in their skulls-brains like House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Senator Charles Schumer, House member Maxine Waters, House members Ilhan Omar and Alexandria Cortez, Senator Feinstein and dozens of others—you see them refusing to secure America’s borders, but in fact, they do everything they can to encourage endless illegal immigration.  To heck with the American people and their jobs!  Do you think they will suddenly care about your wages, your jobs, or your citizenship rights?

As this man’s anger showed me, he’s feeling the same problems that I felt as a young baby boomer.  My worry back in 1968 at Fort Benning, Georgia, U.S. Army boot camp, was, “How am I going to live through that bogus war?  Will I come back without a leg or arm?”

As I said in my “lament as a baby boomer”, it’s been very distressing to watch America degrade and devolve at the hands of our elected representatives.

Am I confident that our representatives in Washington DC will take action to save our country from all the problems we face?  Can we expect rational solutions to the multitude of our problems?  Will we see solutions for the hundreds of thousands of Americans suffering from homelessness?  Will we solve our infrastructure degradation?  Will they help us solve our racial conflicts?

As Mark Twain said, “Suppose you are an idiot and suppose you are a member of Congress…ah, but I repeat myself?”

If this man who blames us baby boomers waits for baby boomers to solve his problems: good luck with that.  If any of us think our leaders will work on our behalf as American citizens, think again.  When I was a young man, it wasn’t the president or Congress who gave us “civil and voter rights” for Black Americans.  Dr. Martin Luther King marched.  The Congress and president didn’t give women the right to vote back in 1917.  Susan B. Anthony and the suffragettes marched.

What does that mean?  Doesn’t it mean YOU must change your situation in your community at the local level?  If you want change, doesn’t it mean that YOU must engage?

Do you want a better, fairer America?  Who do you think will make that happen?

To you, the readers of my columns, stay safe, keep your social distance, be smart with a face mask, keep your families sheltered and may God bless you and yours.  We’ll make it through this Covid 19 with our courage, determination, smarts and discipline.

While we keep our social distance, and, while we watch Covid 19 rage across America, few appreciate a greater ‘virus’ that’s creating the ‘death’ of America as we knew her in 1965.

As quickly as the Coronavirus races across the American landscape killing thousands of people, another virus, self-imposed by our own elected representatives in Washington DC, races across our country at a rate of over 100,000 new additions every 30 days.  What constitutes this modern disease creating the ‘death’ of America as we knew her?

The disease more dangerous and deadly than Covid 19?  Answer: endless legal and illegal immigration of third world people and their cultures and religions.  Few understand the long-term ramifications of making America a quagmire of dozens of foreign cultures, languages, violent religions and world views.

Can Western Civilization Survive Another 100,000,000 Legal Immigrants predicted by 2050?  Why or why not?  What are you doing about it?

If you take time to read Mark Steyn’s book, America Alone, he sensibly and rationally dissects what’s happening to Europe.  They commit demographic suicide at blinding speed. He predated Douglas Murray’s, The Strange Death of Europe: Identity, Immigration, Islam.  Another book shows Canada’s demise, Canadistan: How Multiculturalism is Destroying Canada by Sarah Yasini.

Within 20 years, another astute author will write his or her book: The Self-Chosen Death of America by ******* ************.  If I’m still alive at that time, I will write that book, if the new immigrant majority will allow me.

Steyn says that Western Civilizations suffer from “civilizational despair.”  In other words, western countries have become SO complacent about freedom, free speech, women’s rights, children’s rights, religious choice and loyalty to their specific countries—that they simply sit on their butts to watch their cultures fade.  And, we seem to think that it won’t happen to us.

Except, it IS happening to us at blinding speed when you look at the four border states with Mexico.  Spanish dominates businesses, schools and workplace conversations.  It IS happening in Miami where a White American cannot secure a job or enjoy anyone resembling an American who speaks English.  It IS happening with parallel societies exploding in New York, Minneapolis, Detroit, San Francisco, LA and Houston.

It IS happening where Muslims dominate and are imbedding themselves into key political positions across America. Whether it’s the Council on American Immigration Relations or The Muslim Brotherhood—they follow one prime directive: install Sharia Law. Or, as their numbers grow, they de facto practice it against American Constitutional Law.

So many Americans point to Europe and Canada for allowing their cultures and languages to be immigrated to death.  Most Americans have heard of “no go zones” where the immigrants do not allow anyone other than their own people to trod.  Guess what?  We’ve already seen honor killings and FGM in America, and now, “no  go zones” in the aforementioned  cities.

Second Aspect Of The Death Of America As We Knew Her

If that doesn’t sober you as to the death of America, this second aspect cannot be denied or escaped.  We remain on course to add in excess of 110 million foreigners to America by 2050—a scant 30 years from now. That’s not “if” but a fact that will manifest by 2050 when our population jumps from 330 million to 440 million—unless we, the citizens of America—force Congress to rescind the 1965 Immigration Reform Act.

Do you know what it takes to sustain another 100,000,000 people beyond the 330 million already here?  Do you understand how much water must be available as the average American uses 166 gallons daily?  What about gasoline?  What about natural gas?   The horrific amount of resources?  Any idea as to the amount of food that must be generated to feed THAT many people?

“Immigration by the numbers—off the chart” by Roy Beck

This 10-minute demonstration shows Americans the results of unending mass immigration on the quality of life and sustainability for future generations: in a few words, “Mind boggling!”  www.NumbersUSA.org

All the while, THAT much population gain will completely destroys our quality of life and standard of living.  It means a doubling of populations of our 35 most populated cities.  How will we sustain that?

Do you remember the Titanic steamship in April 15, 1912? Captain Smith pushed it too fast through iceberg-filled waters.  Result: he sunk his own ship and all its passengers.  Do you remember  the movie “Thelma and Louise”?  They committed so many crimes that consequences drove them toward that cliff in their 1966 Thunderbird. They couldn’t fix their problems, so they chose suicide by driving over the cliff.

What’s happening to America?  Within 30 years we will be 440 million people and a hodgepodge of minority races, incompatible religions, linguistic confusion and virtually everybody will think on a different cultural page. We’ll suffer from too many people, too little resources and gasoline will be exhausted.

Coronavirus will be solved at some point, but unless we change course, nothing will solve the “immigration virus” that will permanently cripple the United States of America and all Western Civilizations.

Would you like a reasonable national discussion-debate on what kind of a civilization you’re handing over to your kids?  Or, would you like to see your children repeat the mistakes of the Titanic and Thelma and Louise?

At this point in our country’s history, with this Covid pandemic knocking on all our doors 24/7, I find myself contemplating life, our country’s future, our children’s future and the rest of humanity.  This crisis proves itself beyond anything I’ve seen in my 73 years of living.

If it’s true that some maniacs scientist in Wuhan, China created this bio-weapon, or it simply erupted out of the filthy conditions of ‘wet markets’ that you may have seen on YouTube videos—the Chinese maintain an exceedingly unsanitary culture in their food chain. Whatever it is, it’s killing a lot of people.

From what we’re being told, something like 100,000 to 200,000 of us will see death in the coming months.  It could be anyone in my family. Heck, I could be gone because it kills most folks over 70 years of age.

As a baby boomer, I’ve lived a wonderful life.  By dumb luck, I lived through the Vietnam War.  I haven’t died of a heart attack.  I made a reasonable living as a teacher and truck driver my entire life.  I explored the world on my bicycle.  I’m happily married.

But as I look back on my life, and this country’s history since 1950, I can’t help but wring my hands and wonder what happened to the United States?  What happened to our integrity as a constitutional republic?   Why did our leaders plunge us into the Korean War that killed 33,000 young Americans for absolutely no good reason?

Why did we allow Lyndon Baines Johnson and the Military Industrial Complex, filled with sickeningly greedy, amoral men, to start a 10-year war in Vietnam over the bogus “Gulf of Tonkin Incident”?   Why did our “Silent Majority” allow those power brokers in Washington DC, filled with lies and deceit, to fund that deadly war for 10 years?  Why at the expense of 58,220 of our finest kids?  What did it prove?  Answer: nothing.  Who did it save?  Answer: killed over 3,000,000 (million) Vietnamese, men, women and children. Who benefited?  Answer: power brokers who made defense contracts, war munitions, uniforms, tanks, food and endless weapons to kill other human beings.

That war shaped me, affected me for the rest of my life, and affects me today. I don’t trust one son of a bitching senator or House member in Washington DC to do the right thing. They prove themselves a den of thieves and racketeers.  And our presidents, not much better as they led us into those wars. Note: keep your weapons and 1^st Amendment rights!

What about the fraudulent “Weapons of Mass Destruction” ruse to force us into Afghanistan and Iraq?  What about these two 19 yearlong wars? For what?  Answer: money, money, money for war corporations and stockholders.  For whom?  Answer: corporate profits.  Why? Answer: screw the American public.

Why 700 military bases and over 450,000 military personnel housed in over 80 countries around the world for the last 50 years?  Why?  Answer: no sane reason.  What cost?  Answer: into the trillions of dollars over the decades.  For what purpose?  Answer: can you give an answer?

We’re $23 trillion in debt for heaven sakes!  We’re overrun with legal and illegal immigrants that are totally changing our culture, way of life, language and citizenship.  We’ve got 13 million children living under the poverty level.  We’ve got over 100,000 homeless living in tarp tents in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Denver, Chicago, New York City, Miami, Dallas and many more cities.  Seven out of 10 Americans suffer from being fat around 40 pounds overweight or obese at 80 to 100 pounds overweight.  Why won’t fast food joints serve healthy meals with healthy beverages?  Answer: they could give a crap about your health.

We’ve got 7 out of 10 Black kids born to single mothers living on welfare.  We’ve got 40 million Americans subsisting on food stamps.  Yet, we give billions in foreign aid.  We’ve got $120 billion in drug trade annually that causes incredible horrors for families with addicted members.  We watch over $100 billion in cash transfers exit our country annually by immigrants of every stripe.

We’ve got 22 military service men and women committing suicide 24/7.  And, according to MADD, 14 million people drive drunk on our highways 24/7.  Around 18 teens overdose to death hourly on drugs 24/7.  Alcoholism affects upwards of 30 million Americans.  It kills families, ruins lives and wreaks deadly havoc on our nation’s highways.

Can we continue to watch 500,000 people jump our borders annually to come to America, “For a better way of life”?  Can we sustain the projected 100 million more immigrants within 30 years?

I could cover another 20 items, but don’t have time in this column. Suffice to say, our country stands eyeball deep in trouble.

For a kid out of the 1940’s, I feel blessed beyond measure to have enjoyed an educated mind, free choices and good health. I feel blessed with an exceedingly wonderful wife, two great boys, and dear friends.

I hope this pandemic helps us re-arrange our choices.  We need to take care of our citizens first, second and always.  We need to stop all immigration to integrate the millions of disparate people already here.  We need to mandate English as our national language.  We must stop any other foreign or religious laws from forming in our Constitutional Republic.  We need to take care of our young with solid educations, personal worth and allegiance to our country.  We need to create jobs that contribute to our world in a healthy and ecologically sane manner.

We need to pull our troops out of all wars and corners of the globe.

We’ve got to start thinking and acting on alternative energy. We MUST stabilize our own population to live within the carrying capacity of our finite land mass with finite water, energy and resources.

We need a national-discussion-debate on what kind of a civilization we’re handing over to our children.  What are your ideas?  If we don’t change course, do you think your kids stand a chance?

May God bless you and yours during this time of painful uncertainty.

This morning, I walked into my local Natural Grocers food store in Golden, Colorado to buy our weekly stock of food. Inside, virtually everyone wore face masks. No happy chatter by anyone with anyone! Big sheets of plexiglass separated cashiers from customers. One couple walked in with full hazmat blue uniforms and face masks, plus gloves.  In fact, everyone wore gloves as they picked out their produce and food products.  Everybody seemed to be defending themselves from breathing on everyone else. No handshaking or friendly banter.

Once back at their cars, they cleaned their hands with disinfectant wipes or sanitizing cleaners.  Everyone drove their cars out of the parking lot happy to get out of there.

This Covid 19 disease caused this complete change in our country in the past 14 days.

It’s already claimed 33,000 lives on the world stage while it approaches 1,000,000 infected cases in 151 countries.  It’s killing so many people so fast that they cannot handle them in crematoriums, nor can they handle the bodies piling up.

In America, reports show over 3,300 deaths and more than 80,000 cases, and climbing.  Dr. Anthony Fauci and Dr. Rebecca Berk, of the president’s task force, estimate that we could see 100,000 to 200,000 deaths in the USA in the coming months.  The disease already claimed one famous character actor and a top CBS executive Maria Mercader.  The virus hit U.S. Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky.  World famous actor Tom Hanks battles it as of this hour. Our own New York City escalates into a mass-disaster zone.

This disease dwarfs 9/11’s nightmare.  It supersedes anything our country has ever experienced.

If we’re going to contain it and squash it, every American citizen must follow the guidelines for not spreading it.

1. 10 feet apart social distancing.
2. Handwashing anytime you’ve grocery shopped or pumped gas or opened a door.
3. Avoid groups, that means to stay with yourself and your family.
4. Wear a mask when shopping for essentials.
5. Keep your hands away from your face and keep them washed.
6. Disinfect all surfaces in your kitchen and arena of living.
7. Wipe all food purchases and packages with cleaner.
8. Self-quarantine as much as possible.
9. Avoid public transport.

Also, one of the big things that spreads any disease-plague like this: proximity to other humans.  Ironically, human population density encourages such diseases.  For the past 50 years, our country has been forced to grow via immigration by our U.S. Congress.  Those members of that body jammed and crammed too many people into this country.

We must question whether or not we want to jam and cram another projected 110 million people within the next 30 years to make ourselves even more vulnerable to viruses that most certainly will visit our country.

We Need a Paradigm Breaker-Changer to Save America

Useful paradigms forged this country.  The same ‘exponential growth’ paradigm, if not abandoned, will kill America.  The great question: why are we importing over 1.5 million more people annually to explode our population beyond sustainability and putting future generations into the cross-hairs of newer and deadlier Covid 19’s in the coming years?

In Denver, our city expects to explode by doubling within 30 years, yet a recent Westword commentary asked the question of consequences of ‘density’ via endless growth.

Writer Gary Wockner said, “The closer people are together, the greater the likelihood of disease transmission, including the coronavirus. This basic epidemiological fact — that human density increases disease transmission — is not at all new; it has been known for hundreds of years, as various plagues and viruses have swept across the planet infecting humanity. Hundreds of books have been written on the topic, and entire fields of research model and predict how disease can spread through human urban areas.

“What is new, however, is the large-scale political movement in the United States to ignore epidemiological facts in order to support more population growth and vastly increase the wealth and profits of real estate developers by packing more and more people into America’s cities.

“Sometimes called the “YIMBY” (“Yes in My Backyard”) movement, this profiteering scheme alleges that the way to solve America’s rapid population growth and affordable-housing problems is to pack more people into smaller spaces in American cities via “density.” The goal of these groups and people is to outlaw single-family zoning in towns and cities, increase the number of apartments and condos, and literally pack more people into cities.” Westword, Denver, CO, March 2020

Does that path make sense?  Do the disease vectors that it will further make for a healthy future?  Wockner asked scary questions, such as “who” drives this insane growth paradigm? What’s their end solution to all the consequences they create by their adhering to a senseless ‘growth’ paradigm?

For three decades, I’ve reported on our growing consequences that are now catching up to what’s happening in Bangladesh, Mexico, China and India.  We’re literally growing our population into the quagmire already being suffered by those countries.  And yet, who has spoken up across the nation to change to a sustainable and stabilized population paradigm?

Are we not in trouble as a civilization? Do we want to continue on this ‘growth’ path-paradigm until we become another India?   Can we support or survive the diseases or pandemics brought to us by importing another 110 million foreigners and their children?  Are you going to stand by to see your children perish in this old paradigm?  What will you do about it to change course?

Last week, radio talk show host of Ohio Exopolitics interviewed yours truly for 30 minutes on the subject of overpopulation, health and what we face.  You may find it interesting.

Again last night on the national and international news, we humans face some rough gravel on the road ahead.  It’s disconcerting for our families, friends and communities.  For the first time in 50 years, I’m not sure how to deal with this virus affecting countless Americans and certainly all people around the world.  So, in this story, please step out into the gathering dusk with me.  Take a deep breath.  Appreciate your blessings.  Walk with me.  Let’s do our best to move toward the light. This story occurred in my youth as a farm boy.

While taking a hike down a country road near dusk in my teens, an old farmer, plodding along with his walking stick, abruptly stopped me.  His wrinkled-weathered skin did not diminish the energy in his clear blue eyes.  Silver locks flowed from his wide-brimmed hat while his peppered beard gave him a majestic air of wisdom.

(As the sun sets, fireflies create magic in the air.  Sleeping outside in a teepee makes you one with the universe. The energy of stars transforms your spirit. You look to the heavens and see peace.)

“Where you goin’ sonny?” he asked.

“Just taking a walk to catch a few fire-flies when the night settles in on us,” I said.  “They seem to show their magic just as the sun goes down, but before the stars come out.  I like the way they turn the long grass into street lamps, but none of the city noise to go with it.”

“Should be a lot of them out this evening as soon as the red-winged black birds fall silent,” he said.  “So, if you don’t mind my asking, where are you going with your life?”

“My mom wants me to go to college,” I said.  “She said it will give me a leg-up on living as well as make me a better educated man.”

“Good for you,” he said.  “But what do you want to do with your life?”

“After I graduate from college,” I said, “I want to travel the world before settling down to a job.  I want to figure out some things about this life.”

“Do you mind a bit of advice?” he asked.

“My dad told me to listen to my elders to learn their knowledge,” I said.

“The path to your destiny has “forks in road” that require the imperfect ability to discern the difference between opportunity and pitfalls,” he said.  “You will make mistakes in judgment.  You will fail often. But remember to make those failures into stepping-stones toward your ultimate success. Never get down on yourself. None of it comes easy, but it gets easier as you travel the path with a good attitude, application by work and your ingenuity.”

“My dad said something like that,” I said.

“Smart dad,” he said.  “In addition to “forks” there will be “cul de sac’s” or “dead end’s” where you rest and re-evaluate the route you have taken. Everyone comes to these markers at some point. You will become wiser.  Experience is the best teacher.  So, if you find yourself going down the wrong road, or the road isn’t working for you, turn around and go back. When you return to your original location, strike out in a new direction with the wisdom you learned while you traveled along the wrong road.”

“That works for me,” I said.

“As a young man, you are heading toward your “destiny,” he said. “To me the term “destiny” implies a pre-ordained purpose by some higher power. This implies a personal belief in that higher power.  That may or may not work for you.  It also implies that one’s “destiny” answers the question, “Why am I here?”  You will find out on your journey.”

“Another thing,” he said.  “Your mom is right…choose your friends carefully. You will adopt some of their characteristics into your personality.  When you hang with the smarter, more responsible folks in your school, you become more like them and succeed like them.

“Additionally, memories of your experiences are what come to you in those future quiet times with yourself. Make sure you accept yourself at all times.  Even if you are not sure, assume a sense of confidence in your own talents whatever they might be or come to be.

“Some memories will be filled with regret and some will be joyous. You will have both in your life. You get to choose the number of each by the way you live. And, one final thought from my days of meditation on hay bales and sitting beside a quiet pond with dragon flies, turtles, snakes and muskrats: everything you become, you chose. And, everything you chose, you wanted.”

As the fireflies lit the long grass, the old man tipped his hat before continuing on into the gathering darkness.

“Thank you, sir,” I said, as I walked through the magic of fireflies and stars twinkling in the sky.

We live in the 21^st century, which caught us in a time of converging extremes.  What constitutes those extremes?

Six of them come to mind: human conflict, disease proliferation, catastrophic climate destabilization, economic chaos, plastics-poisons, and human overpopulation. We could probably come up with another dozen extremes, but it would take a book.

As human numbers increase to extremes around the planet: countries fight for water, energy, arable land, resources and turf. For example, China cannot feed its 1.4 billion people. It grows environmentally more unsustainable with each sunrise. Thus, it expands into Africa, South America, Europe, Canada and America. Please note: demographics determine superiority and destiny.  Remember what happened to the Native American Indians.

February 2019:  My friend Barry, a businessman, said, “Italy entered into China’s new Silk Road initiative. In one year China has taken over critical port cities in Italy. Many Italians in Northern Italy sold their leather goods and textile companies to China.  Italy then allowed 100,000 Chinese from Wuhan to move to Italy to work in these factories.  Many took direct flights from Wuhan to Italy resulting in Northern Italy being a hotspot for the virus.

“This is why China is sending Italy foreign aid and medical equipment.  There’s a rampant illegal immigration problem in Italy because of the massive numbers of Chinese going back and forth between Italy and Wuhan.  Chinese illegal factory workers are avoiding the taxes due Italy by not being registered as guest workers.

Work for three months then they disappear for a month and come back and go to work under a different name, different factory.

“Chinese are buying up port cities in Italy and taking over the textile industry. Those businesses that didn’t sell to Chinese are being put out of business by the Chinese. There are some neighborhoods in Italy that are only Chinese now. There was an outcry from the US but Italy ignored the concerns.”

The exact same thing happened to Vancouver, BC, Canada where Chinese immigrants now dominate at 65 percent.  They continue to chase out Canadians.

In America, Africa and South America, Chinese buy land and take-over businesses. They’re chain-migrating by the hundreds of thousands.

Disease proliferation:  tuberculosis kills 2,000,000 (million) people annually according to the United Nations.  That’s year after year.  This latest Covid 19 pandemic originated in Wuhan, China.  It could be a bio-weapon or it could be Nature’s response to compacted numbers and filthy food/living practices by the Chinese people. I’ve visited China to see the filth myself.  As humanity increases by another 3,000,000,000 (billion) people, net gain within 30 years, look for more pandemics that will kill millions, perhaps even billions.

Catastrophic climate destabilization:  because of our extraordinary exhaust of fossil fuel burning, coal burning, wood burning and methane gas exhaustion—we continue to set in motion responses from Nature that we cannot understand nor do know the outcome as to long term ramifications. Think: Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

Economic chaos:  if this Covid 19 continues its exponential growth journey, it very well could leave countless dead and completely destroy the entire working economy of America and the world.

Plastics and poisons:  if you think this planet and its marine creatures can tolerate another 5,000,000,000,000 (trillion) pieces of plastic tossed into our oceans on top of the 5 trillion we’ve already tossed in the past 50 years, you might want to consult with a counselor.  At present, we inject 70,000 deadly chemicals into the air, water and land 24/7—and have been for 60 years.  Do you have any idea of the long term consequences of such a combination of abuse?  Can you imagine our entire food supply poisoning us to death via cancers, neurological diseases like Parkinson’s Disease, Multiple Sclerosis, Autism, CP, MD and many others?  Everyone reading this column knows someone with cancer or who has died of cancer. Yet, annually, we continue to poison MOST of our foods and sell to a clueless public.

Do you remember the movie, “Thelma and Louise” in their 1966 Ford Thunderbird?  Do you remember they had blown up a tanker truck and had committed enough crimes to put themselves in prison for many years.  As the cops chased them toward a cliff near Moab, Utah, (which I have visited), they stopped just short of the edge. They were trapped.  They faced consequences so great that they both decided to ‘floor it’ and drive their Thunderbird over the cliff and die.

It’s my observation, that back in 1970, at 3.5 billion people on the planet; we focused on overpopulation on that first Earth Day. We were warned about our impending future and that we needed to change course.  First world countries did change to 2.03 children per woman, but third world countries decided to “floor it” by adding another 4.1 billion of themselves to reach 7.6 billion, as if tomorrow wouldn’t come.  Religious leaders applauded and praised endless population increases. So did corporations worldwide.  Consumption driven by population growth yielded massive profits for a very few.  To hell with the environment or quality of life.

Well, tomorrow is here.  We’re looking down both barrels of a 12 gauge shotgun with both hammers pulled back.

It’s here and it’s going to get dicey.  If we survive Covid 19, but keep adding another three billion by 2050 as projected, Mother Nature will send another form of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.  Guaranteed!

What can you do?  What are you going to do for your children?  What kind of a civilization will you hand over to them?

My thoughts?  Since none of the world leaders will speak to this issue, including our own president and Congress, we need you, the average American citizen to speak up.  You need to call or visit your governor, U.S. Senators, House Member, TV station, radio stations, NPR, PBS, CNN, FOX, PBS, 60 Minutes and as many as you can to demand a national discussion-debate on America’s carrying capacity, immigration invasion both legal and illegal, energy, water and resources.  If you don’t, they won’t. Things will continue exactly as they have been since 1970.  Ask them what they think about and how will we feed another 140 million people added to the United States and another 15-20 million people to Canada within the next 30 years.

Just like Thelma and Louise, at some point, do you want your children to face driving over that cliff? Because if you do nothing, they will be forced to drive over that cliff.

This is what the future will look like:

My friend, writer Les Blenkhorn said, “Stay well there. This contagion is going to fundamentally change the world forever.”

In a matter of five days, Covid 19 affected everyone in my small town of Golden, Colorado.  The movie theaters closed.  Restaurants closed. My gym closed. The pool closed. Plays cancelled. Sporting events cancelled. My church placed worship services online last Sunday.  No one shakes hands anymore.  Friends stand 10 feet apart when talking.  We shop at the grocery store near closing to avoid people.  Anyone could be carrying the virus.  My wife Sandi cancelled a conference in Phoenix.  She cancelled a visit to her friend with cancer in Sedona, Arizona.  She cancelled the rental car.  She cancelled the airline tickets.  She cancelled her Air B and B reservations.

My cousin Elaine faced quarantine on a cruise ship in Thailand.  She finally returned home after a month of incredible ordeals and stress.  One of my sons, who travels extensively, remains home working through his computer.  The other son, a pharmacy tech, must wear a “moon suit” to disperse medications in a Denver hospital.

Times Square in New York City resembles a vacant lot filling with trash.  Macy’s and Saks Fifth Avenue stores locked their doors.  Target and Kohl’s look to close, too.

For the first time in 40 years, Congress and this president closed the border with Mexico to stop further injection of diseases from border jumpers.  Other than necessary goods, we closed our border with Canada.

The major stock market indicators keep dropping like a brick in water, while, airlines and cruise ship companies face massive cancellations.

Everyone may become infected with the slightest contact to this virus residing in the body of another person.

This Corona Virus originated in China, at least, that’s the news mandate. These days, none of us can really be sure about anything the main stream press spouts.  As an extensive traveler in Asia, and seeing firsthand their lack of sanitation, germ-filled food preparation and drinking water—I am astounded that all of India, China, Pakistan, and Bangladesh haven’t died of horrific diseases such as cholera, leprosy, HIV, malaria, tuberculosis and other infectious diseases.  It’s filthy in those regions.

In India, 77 percent of its citizens lack the use of a toilet.  With 1.25 billion people, and headed toward adding another 300 million within 30 years, it’s a wonder pandemics haven’t hit weekly.  China, with 1.4 billion expects to add another 100 million by 2050.  How they hope to survive those numbers beats the heck out of me.  And Bangladesh at 161 million people living in abject misery, expects to reach 201 million within three decades.  Illiterate humans only know how to do one thing well: procreate.

What am I getting at?  It’s simple: there are too many humans multiplying across the planet in unsustainable numbers.  At 7.6 billion, we humans remain on course to add another 2.5 billion by 2050, to reach 10.1 billion.  What do you bet we don’t make it?  What are the odds that humans face a terribly bleak future?

Additionally, if you watch the video reports on places like Los Angeles with 62,000 homeless people living in tarp tents, tossing filthy trash everywhere, and defecating-urinating in the streets—you can’t imagine how it is in India, but let me say, it’s sickening beyond imagination. In LA, it’s only 62,000, but in India, it’s 1.25 billion.

If humans fail to invent and install sanitation systems worldwide and garbage collection, you can bet that Mother Nature will do the job for us.  If humans fail to stabilize their numbers before mid-century, you can bet that Mother Nature will stabilize our numbers for us.

If you think Canada and the USA face endless refugees out of the overpopulated third world in 2020, can you imagine what the human-flood will be in 2030, 2040, and 2050? Can you imagine the diseases being transported within their bodies?

This year, 2020, our U.S. Congress will dump another 1,000,000 (million) legal third world immigrants onto our shores.  We need Congress to rescind the 1965 Immigration Reform Act. Bring all immigration down to zero.  We need to stop the chain migration with bill HR 891 and stop the Visa Lottery at 50,000 annually by voting in HR 479.  In 2019, 372,000 border-crasher women, without being vetted, birthed their anchor babies on US soil.  If we don’t change our laws, they will keep coming.

What kind of diseases will they bring to us and our children?

“Covid 19 virus kills 3,000 people worldwide and we lose our minds,” said a top personal trainer.  “Obesity kills 300,000 Americans annually so we create a new flavor of Doritos or slap another layer of cheese onto a Big Mac or enlarge a 64-ounce Big Gulp by another 10 ounces.”

On the coast of Texas, where Katrina and numerous hurricanes struck,  locals know the storm approaches, they know it’s going to hit, and they know that it will blow through.  When they say, “see you on the other side,” they mean they will see each other when the hurricane has come and gone.

Covid 19 expects to kill thousands in the USA.  At the same time, we suffer millions of deaths annually from various preventable conditions.

For instance, obese Americans suffer 700,000 heart attack deaths annually, while not blinking at the death toll.

Let’s talk about car accidents:

Annually, over six million car accidents occur in America resulting in 33,000 deaths.  Worse, over 11,000 accidents result from texting while driving and another 15,000 deaths stem from drinking while driving.  Nobody bats an eyelash at those deaths.

Because so many Americans suffer from obesity, 84,000 of them die annually of diabetes.  But the rest of the country swamps all the junk food establishments in a stampede of fast (garbage) food addictions.

Over 700,000 obese Americans die from heart attacks annually, but no mention of those 700,000 people saving their lives by eating healthfully, becoming trim, exercising to live full lives.

Another 450,000 Americans smoke themselves to death annually, year after year, decade after decade, costing trillions of dollars in health care, but no run on toilet paper at Wal-Mart, or mention of outlawing tobacco addiction.

Another 88,000 deaths from alcohol consumption annually in the USA. Not any hysteria about that!

Cancer deaths, at 606,000 in 2019, rank second as to cause of death in America annually, yet you won’t see Americans charging into Publix or King Soopers stores demanding an end to Monsanto-Bayer-Dow Chemical companies from poisoning the food chain with foods that cause cancer.

Covid 19 virus may take out hundreds or even thousands of Americans. Indeed, it will be tragic beyond comprehension.  Heck, I’m frightened for my family, too.

The disease thrives in overpopulated countries like China, Bangladesh, Mexico and India.  Heck, it might kill me or any of my family.  That’s one thing about Mother Nature or God’s plan or whomever you think manages the universe—this life proves a dicey proposition. You can be here one day riding high, and gone the next.

While we’re facing this discussion about pandemic diseases, you know me as a writer, and world traveler, who speaks to the human overpopulation crisis as the greatest scourge across the planet in the 21^st century.  We face many warning signs already in the first 20 years of the 21^st century.  The same signs affect all the obese people, but they too, refuse to take responsibility for their bodies and their lives.  Thus, they become victims of early death.

The same holds true for drug addicts who knew that drugs hook a person;  they shot up anyway and turned their lives into horror stories.  The same holds true for cigarette smokers. Nonetheless, 37 million Americans still smoke, and vaping continues to rise in deadly numbers.

As to a philosophical question: are we humans just about the smartest, most clever and dumbest species on the planet or what?  We’ve overrun this tiny globe out in the ink-black of space.  We’re poisoning it  with 70,000 chemicals we inject into the air, water and land 24/7.  We’ve trashed our oceans with 5.5 trillion pieces of plastic in less than 50 years with no end in sight.  We’re stuffing the biosphere that nourishes us with excessive amounts of pollution.

We’re causing the extinction of 100 creatures every day of the year! (Source: Oxford University Study, “Six Extinction Session” “Extinction rates worldwide” by Norman Myers)

And yet, we’re about to add 3,000,000,000 (billion) more of ourselves by 2050.

Anyone out there with an IQ over room temperature think that’s going to end up well for us or the other creatures who share this planet?

We remain on course to add 100,000,000 (million) people to the USA within 30 years because we’re either too thoughtless to stop ourselves or we carry a death wish for our country and future generations.  Anyone reading this column think the projected 100 million people added to the USA by 2050 or 30 years from now will be a beach party?  And does it surprise you that I can’t get one single interview to discuss this acute population issue on any of the major networks in the past 20 years of trying?

Do you understand that when you shove too many chickens into a chicken coop, they start pecking each other to death? Do you realize that we inject them with nine different chemicals to keep them breathing until they are slaughtered?  Do you grasp that China at 1.4 billion people must feed, water and house too many people crammed into too little space?  Do you realize they eat dogs, cats, bats and rats?   Do you understand that when too many people are jammed into a limited space, they destroy the homeostasis of their environment?  Diseases erupt such as Covid 19 in China.  Notice the murder rates in Detroit, Chicago, NYC and Los Angeles. Are you aware that humans keep piling themselves onto one another to a point that diseases-viruses-resource shortages WILL engage them and ultimately kill them?  Are you aware that it’s Mother Nature’s way of dealing with imbalance?

Ultimately, Mother Nature WILL bring homeostasis

We enjoy two choices in this century:  we either stabilize our numbers gracefully on this planet to live in harmony with Mother Nature; or, secondly—this 21^st century will kick humanity’s butt back to the stone age. One way or the other Mother Nature will return to balance.

We Are Past Time To Wake Up Fellow Americans

What’s America’s choice? What choice will humanity make? What choices are you making?  Ultimately, how do you think it will work out for your children?

With all the political mayhem, name slinging and Covid-19 spreading across our country and the world—like you, I am pretty sick of it. All of us face 24/7 stress.  I’m fed up with our U.S. Congress with its 535 elected officials doing pretty much nothing to solve our national problems.  They won’t secure our borders and haven’t for 40 years.  They keep piling debt upon us. They keep funding two worthless wars for 19 years.  They won’t stop the immigration invasion no matter what consequences to our citizens.  It’s sickening to watch it.

For the record, my wife Sandi and I live day to day with a sense of hope and harmony.  We exercise, do our jobs, fix dinner, watch movies and contribute to our community in Golden, Colorado.  We enjoy friends, go dancing and laugh a lot.  We’re grateful for all our blessings.

So, instead of a serious column today, please enjoy a bicycle adventure that carries you into the wonders of Nature.  We live in a beautiful world.  Let’s try to preserve it and all the other creatures living in it.

A Bicycle Journey from Mexicali, Mexico to Calgary, Canada

In the spring, Doug and I pedaled from Mexicali, Mexico toward Calgary, Canada to meet Bryan Delay who had bicycled South America with us. We rode up the middle of California, through Oregon and upwards through Washington State. Because of springtime, we watched millions of birds flying over our heads all day long. Wave after wave after wave! Big Canadian geese, lovely white pelicans, cranes, Arctic Terns, mallards, Western grebes, and many more that we couldn’t identify.

We rolled our bikes past the Saltan Sea in southern California. We cranked through Joshua Tree National Monument with its wondrous boulders. We headed into the southern end of Death Valley at 116 degrees F. on April 1st. That Henry Wade exit proved itself 30 miles of sand and butt-busting cycling. We packed plenty of water in order to make the pavement of the regular highway through the valley.

Interestingly, when you lay your life on the line, but you’re prepared, life meets you. I mean, death could meet you, too. But with intrepid hearts, Doug and I pedaled northward into the heat-tempest of that scorching day. If you ever felt like you had died and gone to the fiery dungeons of Hell, that day would define it.

Along the road, we saw an approaching motorhome creating a dust storm behind its wheels. When it came up to us, the driver stopped. “Do you guys know the temperature?” he asked. “It’s 116 degrees.”

“We feel it with every push on the pedals,” Doug said. “Not our lucky day to be pedaling in this kind of intense heat.”

“Here,” the wife said, “Two cold pears out of our cooler and two ice cold lemonades.”

Monika and Reinhold, a lovely couple from Germany, gave us two gifts in that scorching desert that we remember to this day. We broke open the cans and guzzled the cool liquid that slid down our throats as refreshingly as if we had drunk the water cascading over Niagara Falls. And those two cold pears, well, a five-course dinner at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York City could not compare to the joy of those delicious, juicy, life-giving pears.

More wonder, please!

As we cranked our iron steeds into the Sierra Nevada mountains, one night we stopped by a lake named “Lake Almanor” that was named for three sisters, Alice, Martha and Eleanor Gay.  As we sat there under a clear, star-lit sky with the sun just touching down over the mountain peaks, the fire burned brightly into the gathering dusk. Overhead, a 50 gaggle of Canadian geese honked their way across the lake before flapping their mighty wings to settle down on still waters. What a racket they made! Within minutes another gaggle of Western grebes, diving ducks, settled near the geese. Before us, we saw mallards creating V-wakes across the glass-still waters of the lake. Then, the diving ducks began diving for food and popped up to create circles that expanded across the waters. Before us, a mathematical board of triangles, circles and lines cut the lake into sections, much like a protractor and a sextant gone wild.

“Gees,” said Doug. “I can’t imagine how much more intricate and beautiful Nature’s showcase at this moment.”

“I’d say we’re right in the middle of the magnificence of the universe,” I said.

More wonder, please!

Several days later, we reached the General Sherman Sequoia at 2,500 years old, and a whopping 120 tons of wood with a 30-foot diameter base. Standing beneath it, you, a mere human, become less than a speck of sand, a tiny blob of protoplasm. Yet, you share the same energy as that 2,500-year-old tree, and you share a moment in time for your life. That tree drinks 500 gallons of water a day and expires 500 gallons of water. That tree was ‘old’ at the time of the Roman Empire, and today, it’s 25 centuries later, and it’s still growing strong. To stand at the base of it with our bicycles, well….

More wonder, please!

On that trip with Doug, a man who has bicycled seven continents and ridden through 130 countries, he knows the wonders of the world. He and I have marveled at our stunning moments in the Australian Outback, the fantastic beauties of South America and the sheer magnitude of the history of Europe. Not to mention Asia and the Wall of China on our bicycles.  I don’t mind sharing with you that I feel incredible gratitude as a small farm boy milking cows in Michigan, to a journalist and world traveler, I have much to be thankful for as a citizen of the United States.  It’s why I write with such passion to save our country from endless immigration—which will prove the greatest nightmare for America in the 21^st century.

More wonder, please!

As we moved further north, we captured rare moments in Yosemite National Park. We pedaled up that winding road that featured an eight percent incline! Raging white waters poured down the Merced River out of the High Sierra Mountains. Our legs felt like fried bacon after a day of climbing and descending. It’s a roller coaster ride, but our minds pushed our bodies into it; our legs obeyed our commands.

Somehow, they eagerly respond to the task. Our lungs heaved and our hearts thrived. We “willed” the spokes to spin via the power of our legs. Around us, Nature thrived with flowers, eagles, bees, hummingbirds and the promise of spring. We headed into Yosemite more than 4,000 feet of elevation gain while pounding the pedals. Froto and Condor, the names of our two bikes, responded by carrying us upward.

We became aware of every movement because our thighs felt tender with the sensation of living. We pushed on, toward the final ascent into the valley. In front of us a monster of a mountain appeared—El Capitan. Our eyes grew wide. We took a deep breath. Suddenly, we felt only wonder.

Like I said, More Wonder, Please! And that’s bicycle adventure.

We enjoy a beautiful country; I’ve seen all of it in its glory; I want to preserve it for future generations.  We must take action for the preservation of America.  What are you doing for the future of America and your children?

Dough Armstrong, 7 continent world bicycle traveler, with his sidekick Frosty Wooldridge, 6 continent world bicycle traveler; Yes! Please bring on more WONDER!

In my last column, March 5, 2020, “Balkanization of America Accelerating Faster Than Expected” I showed the facts on how America’s culture, language and ethos are being dismantled before our eyes.  Worse than that, nobody, and I mean, NOBODY stands up or speaks out to stop it.

It started in 1965 with Senator Teddy Kennedy’s passage of the Immigration Reform Act.  Nothing has stopped it for the past 55 years. We’ve added 100 million people, with incredible cultural disruption, linguistic fracturing and racial conflict.

And your letters, wow, you flooded my mailbox with your frustration, anger and exasperation.  I hadn’t received that many letters since I wrote, “The Eight Ways On How to Destroy America: A Speech by Governor Lamm” back in October 2003.

Unfortunately, those eight ways to destroy America play out faster and faster as we import more and more incompatible immigrants.  It’s incredible how we’ve allowed our country to be saturated with 45 million foreign born people who lack any affinity to America.

One reader said, “It was not just the immigration laws that did us in but the suppression of the science of human behavior contributed greatly.  You wouldn’t know that multiple sociologists have determined that increased diversity leads directly to decreased social cohesiveness or that xenophobia is hard wired into us.  That hard wiring is actually observable with brain scans.

“Diversity within a nation destroys unity and leads to civil wars,” said social scientist Garret Hardin. “Immigration, a benefit during the youth of a nation, can act as a disease in its mature state. Too much internal diversity in large nations has led to violence and disintegration. We are now in the process of destabilizing our own country. The magic words of destabilizers are ‘diversity’ and ‘multiculturalism’.”

“Amy Chua recently wrote “Political Tribes: Group Instinct and the Fate of Nations” and it is brilliant because it uses actual current science that is otherwise difficult to find.  That is until the last chapter where she goes optimistic on the future of America and replaces science with feel good anecdotes.  I suspect she would not have been published without that chapter.

“It is certainly too late to fix our problems legislatively.  I am 72 and will miss most of the coming anarchy.  I would advise young people to start thinking on how they are going to get their tribe into a defensible position or consider migrating to Central and Eastern Europe.

“Of course my thinking is colored by war. I was first introduced to the science of human behavior in “African Genesis” by Robert Ardrey.  I read it on a plane bound for Vietnam where I served as a paratrooper.  That book and the others Ardrey wrote on human behavior (Territorial Imperative) caused me to see how the science was suppressed and continues to be suppressed.  E.O. Wilson, who is one of the acknowledged greats of biology, wrote “Sociobiology, The New Synthesis” in 1975 and was immediately attacked by his fellow Harvard scientists.

“They accused him of using NAZI level science.  He was shunned even to the point they would turn their backs on him as he walked down the halls. Once while giving a lecture, protestors got in through a side door and dumped water on his head.  The suspicion was that the door was left open by insiders.  Today sociobiology is accepted by biology and Wilson is called the “Father of Sociobiology” and the grandfather of “Evolutionary Psychology” but it does not leak out beyond those narrow boundaries.

“This suppression of science is done with malice aforethought by a tribe of powerful and influential people.  I suppose their motive is a combination of profit and revenge for past hurts by Whites.  They have isolated themselves from the immediate fallout which is failing schools and communities and their revenge is complete.  Ironically, their revenge will bring about their own destruction, but most seem oblivious it. Well keep writing.  The future of our tribe needs clear thinkers.”

Having read Robert Audrey, I follow exactly what Garret Hardin, Thomas Chittum, E.O. Wilson and other brilliant minds surmise.  As a civilization, we’re in deep, DEEP doo-doo.

Stefan Molyneux axiom: “Diversity plus proximity equals conflict.”

Even France’s leader, Macron, spoke last week about losing his country,

“We must never accept that the laws of religion can be superior to those of the Republic… Islamist separatism is incompatible with freedom and equality…. We are talking about people who, in the name of a religion, are pursuing a political project, that of a political Islam that wants to secede from our Republic… In the Republic…we cannot accept that we refuse to shake hands with a woman because she is a woman. In the Republic, we cannot accept that someone refuses to be treated or educated by someone because she is a woman. In the Republic, one cannot accept school dropouts for religious or belief reasons. In the Republic, one cannot require certificates of virginity to marry.”

Unfortunately for France, and now, most of Europe, they failed themselves and face almost certain disintegration of their countries with the barbarians they allowed to enter the gates.  Think the “Trojan Horse” pulled into Troy by the order of the king.  Bad mistake!

They are coming to America; and they are coming faster and faster. Think of the 2,400 mosques in America as territorial markers.  Once constructed, only civil war will bring them down.

In Dearborn, Michigan: $50 million complex.  150,000 sq.ft. The largest mosque currently is in Dearborn, Michigan (92,000 sq. ft.) wherein Islam has infiltrated all levels of government and society, taking over businesses and out numbering citizens through higher birth rates. Muslim takeover in Dearborn Michigan. This is unfolding precisely according to the Explanatory Memorandum wherein Silent Jihad is instructed… the only way to stop it is to ban all manifestations of Islam.  Nations around the world are recognizing this as the only option.  Trying to separate so called progressives (good Muslims) from bad Muslims is  impossible. The enormity of such a task is comparable to trying to take a silo filled with salt and sugar and then be instructed to separate the two.  It is impossible and Canadian’s must no longer be put in the position to be expected to do so.

“We are under siege by a crafty enemy who is using self-victimization, manipulation and strategically maligning our Charter of Rights to use against us.  Islam is not a religion but a dangerous set of political ideologies intending to dominate the World.  The burden to protect so called progressive Muslims becomes even more complicated when you consider Taqiya…Muslims directive to lie …as instructed in the Quran, to advance their agenda.  We are losing our freedoms and democracy just as we see rapidly unfolding throughout Europe and the UK.”

Dear fellow American, I have traveled through Dearborn, Detroit, Minneapolis, NYC, and Miami.  Those Muslims are entering every political race in this country from the lowest to the highest, and they are imbedding into our political infrastructure with a sole purpose of installing Sharia Law.

Once installed, it will take civil war to battle our way back to our own country and our own U.S. Constitution.  You voice is needed, now!

How can we save America: Simple—stop all immigration, legal, illegal, diversity visas, H1b, H2b, anchor babies, period.

If you look across the American landscape in 2020, you might notice half of America hates the other half. Half of our U.S. Congress hates the other half, so much so, they’re doing nothing to further the interests of the American people. It’s called, “legislative gridlock.”

Back in 1960, democrats and republicans worked together.  Americans pulled together.  Even with our black/white/brown challenges, we enjoyed a common heritage.  We worked through those challenges in a positive manner. The only mistake: Teddy Kennedy’s “1965 Immigration Reform Act” that commenced the disintegration of America.

Today, about 100,000,000 million legal immigrants later, we’ve got ourselves into a tangled web of multiculturalism, incompatible religions and violent cultures—all by the hand of our elected leaders.

The same thing happened to France and Europe in the 1970’s.  A perceptive writer noted: When France opened its borders to unlimited Muslim immigration in the 1970’s, Frenchman Jean Raspail, penned a prophetic novel, Camp of the Saints, describing the consequences of that senseless choice, “You don’t know my people—the squalor, superstitions, the fatalistic sloth that they’ve wallowed in for generations.  You don’t know what you’re in for if that fleet of brutes ever lands in your lap. Everything will change in this country of yours.  They will swallow you up!”

Today, another writer chronicled the result of that mistake in his book: The Strange Death of Europe—Immigration, Identity, Islam by Douglas Murray

If the United States maintains its current immigration course, much like the Titanic, someone  around mid-century will write their magnum opus:  The Strange Death of The United States of America—By Her Own Hand.

For certain in 2020, we see plenty of historians and wise men telling us about the future based on what’s happening today:

“Immigrants devoted to their own cultures and religions are not influenced by the secular politically correct facade that dominates academia, news-media, entertainment, education, religious and political thinking today,” said James Walsh, former Associate General Counsel of the United States Immigration and Naturalization Service. “They claim the right not to assimilate, and the day is coming when the question will be how can the United States regulate the defiantly unassimilated cultures, religions and mores of foreign lands?  Such immigrants say their traditions trump the U.S. legal system.  Balkanization of the United States has begun.”

It can’t get much clearer than that statement by James Walsh. He can see it. I can see it. Roy Beck sees it. Dan Stein sees it. Jason Mrochek sees it. Dr. John Tanton saw it 50 years ago. Kathleene Parkers saw it. Barbara Jordan saw it. U.S. Senator Tom Cotton (R-Arkansas) and Steve King (R-IA) see it. All of them wrote about it. Virtually no one in the U.S. Congress heeded the messages.  If they did, they suffered name-calling such as the “R-word.”   That pretty much shuts up anyone in the political arena.

Because of our open-door policy for the past 55 years, we’re being balkanized to death.

This past week, Missouri State Senator Maria Chappelle said, “I hope Trump is assassinated.”

To make such a call constitutes “treason” but since she’s a minority, she gets a pass.

Another woman in my State of Colorado, Denver Councilwoman Candi de Baca said, “If I get the coronavirus, I am going to attend as many MAGA rallies as I can.”  In other words, she would deliberately infect anyone who doesn’t hold her views.  Also a minority, she enjoys immunity.

Presidential candidate Bernie Sanders said, “Trump is a racist, a sexist, a homophobe, a xenophobe and a religious bigot.”

That statement condemns half the American public that voted for Trump. It enflames half the American people. When a national leader attacks SO virulently, it incites civil unrest, social anger, racial animosity and cultural chaos. It’s poor behavior and a dangerous example for our young people.

The Somalian immigrant and House member Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, a democrat and a devout Muslim intent on installing Sharia Law in America, said, “I want all Muslims in America to make all Americans uncomfortable.” Indeed, they have made us uncomfortable with 9/11, Fort Hood murders, Fort Dix attack, NYC car bomber, San Bernardino Christmas killings, Garland Texas killings, Fort Lauderdale massacre of 50 at a gay nightclub, Denver bomber, an average of 23 to 27 honor killings in our country annually, and female genital mutilation cases now numbering 500,000 in our first world country where women maintain equal rights, but not in their religion.

If you whisk off to Hollywood, Debra Messing, a star in a homosexual sitcom, stated, “Trump puts all Americans in mortal danger.”

This week, U.S. Senator Charles Schumer, (D-NY), and the man who gave driver’s licenses to the 9/11 hijackers, told two Supreme Court justices, Kavanaugh and Gorsuch, “You will pay the price” if they support any case against abortion rights.

“Justices know that criticism comes with the territory, but threatening statements of this sort from the highest levels of government are not only inappropriate, they are dangerous,” Chief Justice Roberts said in a statement. “All Members of the Court will continue to do their job, without fear or favor, from whatever quarter.”

The Council on American Islamic Relations works 24/7 to bring Sharia Law to America. The Muslim Brotherhood works to incorporate black minorities into that religion with the intent of overthrowing the U.S. Constitution. The greater their numbers the greater their power.  Black Lives Matter members intimidate, carry weapons and absolutely loathe the United States of America.

With over 15 million illegal Mexicans within America, La Raza, “The Race”, works to recapture the four border states back into Mexico: Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California.  One demographer noted on the Tucker Carlson Show on FOX NEWs this week, that immigrants birthed more babies in American in 2019 than Americans.  As a matter of fact, in the same report, illegal pregnant women birthed 372,000 ‘anchor babies’ inside our borders in 2019.  (Source: Tucker Carlson, FOX News, www.cis.org)

Don Lemon, a minority-gay CNN news host said, “The most dangerous terrorists in America are white men.”

As James Welsh said back in 1991, “The balkanization of America has begun.”

If you are reading this column, whether liberal, independent, millennial or conservative, do you think our country will survive? Do you think we can import another projected 110 million more legal immigrants from 196 countries by 2050 and survive the sociological, religious, linguistic and/or cultural chaos coming to our shores?  Do you think we can survive the environmental degradation?

If you do, write me so I can interview you: frostyw@juno.com  I want readers to understand how you think as to endless immigration and open borders—benefiting our civilization already at 330 million and headed for 440 million within 30 years.

Before you write, watch these two videos to see what your children face:

Isn’t it totally amazing to see politicians speak? Aren’t you excited as to all the solutions they promise on their campaign tours?  How about all those promises they make with your tax dollars?

Today, in America, most of us enjoy reasonably positive lives. Most of us work jobs. Most of us live in an apartment or home. Most of us enjoy food, family and television. Most of us love our country. Most of us own a smart phone. We go dancing or hiking. We celebrate with our family and friends.  Let’s face it, we’ve got it pretty good in America.

Yet, if you listen to the campaigns from Bernie Sanders, Liz Warren, Mike Bloomberg, Mayor Pete (can’t pronounce his last name), Sleepy Joe Biden, Cory Booker or Kamala Harris and the rest of them—America can’t survive another four years of Trump.  We’re all going to hell in a handbasket.  This country is being led by a racist and everyone who voted him into office can only be one thing: a racist.

But let’s look at what’s really going on in Washington DC.  First of all, Bernie Sanders never held a job before wiggling his way into Congress. Reports say that he lived on food stamps, welfare and handouts.  He’s never passed a single bill in all his years in Congress.  But, he’s going to solve all of our problems as president.  At the same time, he honors Fidel Castro as a progressive and thinks Venezuela meets the benchmark for the successes of socialism.   Sanders neglects to mention that Castro executed anyone who disagreed with him and he kept Cuba in the economic prison of the 1950’s to this day.  Freedom in Cuba: none!  And, Venezuela, Bernie, I need to speak with you about that place.  Its people are starving to death.

Yet, at 78, and one heart attack already, when will the next one hit? Sanders keeps scolding anyone who supports Trump.  Why would an old man past his prime want to work in a job that carries SO much stress and will give him another heart attack that might kill him?  As Lord Acton said, “Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.”  From my 50 years of watching them, politicians prove themselves the strangest breed of cat on the planet.

Liz Warren may go down in history with her right and left hands having waved to the most people on the planet.  She lied her way into college as a Native America.  She lied her way into a college teaching position by calling herself a Native American.  Yet, she demands integrity and honesty above all else in her screeching career in the U.S. Senate.  Could that lady lead America if she won the White House?  Could she pass a 9^th grade math test on balancing a budget?

Then, you see Mayor Pete.  He makes sense. He served in the military. He’s the mayor of a large city.  He’s slim, trim and fit.  But then, you see him kissing his husband in public, and, oh my God, exactly how will that go over with maleness in America? Can you imagine how that would go over with international meetings with Muslims in the Middle East?  Lord, we live in confusing times.

Of course, Mini-Mike Bloomberg apologizes for everything under the sun.  He stopped the mass shootings in New York City with “stop and frisk”, but now, he made a mistake even though it stopped over 700 murders, annually.  Whether it’s Detroit, Chicago or NYC, why do minorities kill each other with such zestful gusto?  Anybody ever thought about talking differences out?  While Bloomberg tries to ‘buy’ the White House in order to save America from itself, why doesn’t he or the rest of the candidates actually work to solve the basic problems causing all the rest of our problems?

Okay, Sleepy Joe Biden. Time Magazine’s Molly Ball reported, “They’ve been very careful how they handle Biden.  He’s like a porcelain candidate—they don’t expose him very much.   Biden often wanders around in his mind searching for the end of  his sentences, cutting off digressions with an apologetic “anyway.”   The fast-talking politician has been replaced by an old man who can’t stop talking about the past.”

At 78, and having served in Congress over 40 years and as vice president, he has made zero impact on the American landscape.  The question remains: what makes an old man keep churning into the public eye?  He’s only in touch with his understanding of America from a ‘royal’ point of view and totally not in touch with what’s going on in present-day America.

To complicate the field, billionaire Tom Steyer entered with excellent solutions based on his business acumen.  But he never caught the public’s attention.  From my own perspective, I felt that Tulsi Gabbard and Marianne Williamson presented the problems of America and solutions the most effectively, but once again, the main stream media actually ‘picks’ who wins and who loses.

Ironically, all those career politicians from Sanders, Warren and Biden—did nothing to secure our borders, stop two 19 year-long wars, voted to fund those wars, voted us into a $23 trillion debt, watch our oceans face 5.5 trillion pieces of plastic, watched the immigration invasion by doing nothing, and did nothing about another dozen enormous challenges facing our country.  They would bring their same old “solutions” that have not solved anything in their entire Congressional careers.  Einstein said, “If you keep doing the same thing over and over again hoping for a different result, it’s the definition of insanity.”

At this point, our racial divide equals the Grand Canyon.  Our national debt equals the height of Mt. Everest.  We face two opposing political camps that refuse to work together for the good of the American people.  We’ve got parallel societies and ethnic groups plotting against our own country in the Muslim Brotherhood and La Rasa.  Our politicians refuse to deal with reality or realistic solutions.  Bernie, Liz and Joe won’t save America or any of us.

Whether you love him or hate him, Trump actually works for the best interests of Americans.  Yes, he’s bombastic and carries a super ego. At the same time, he’s getting things done.  And,  he’s succeeding in many, many ways.

In the end, you and I must save our country first in our own homes, second in our own communities, third in our own states

and fourth, voting people into office who actually take logical actions to make America better.

Finally, we must all pull together.  Wouldn’t you agree?

The First Amendment remains the most powerful tool in the United States Constitution.  It secures and ensures our freedom of expression. It assures us of being educated by the media.  It empowers each of us to discover for ourselves the knowledge we need to make good decisions for ourselves, our families and our country.

Unfortunately, as we head into the 21^st century, as a citizen-journalist, I find our leaders lie, our media covers-up and top national news services serve us a line of balderdash. Powerful forces, loaded with money, keep the American people in the dark.

One of my journalist friends, Kathleene Parker of New Mexico, said, “We have a corrupt media—I’m working on a piece for Progressive on how and why—that buried population growth issue for 30 years, and it’s a clear, there is an ORGANIZED effort by media to brainwash us into believing population is “no longer” a problem. As if another 100 million people added to America is not a problem! CBS in the Morning even had a jackass on who had written a book about the “dangers” of a U.S. population implosion due to a lack of births.  As if 330 million people isn’t enough of us!

“How far up his butt is his head not to notice what’s happening around him?  Now, we’re helpless as media brainwashes the public, something I’ve encountered personally by people arguing with me that “we aren’t growing.”  How can we compete against media—all media. Newspapers are already headlining a possible slowing growth rate in the census, never mind the real numbers.

“As to leaders, we have none!  I didn’t watch the debate last night.  Why should I?  To see them act like angry kids to the benefit of the T.V. cameras?  If leaders were worth a  spit, they’d be fixing broken media and campaign financing.  Our nation is paralyzed, and it will take something draconian—coronavirus, or a collapse of the entire Colorado River system—to awaken people of no integrity or ability to think.”

My first experiences with the media covering up the truth: Vietnam War from 1965 to 1975.  They covered up the facts for 10 years that got 58,220 kids killed.  They’ve covered up the facts on the Afghanistan and Iraq Wars that have killed more by suicides than war casualties.  And, they covered up the costs at $6 trillion and where it all vanished.

The MSM covered up the fact that Barack Obama carries a fraudulent Social Security number, 042, from Connecticut, a state he never lived in, but his adoptive mother, who worked for the Social Security administration, took it off a dead man, and gave it to Obama because he cannot produce a valid birth certificate within the USA. Additionally, the fact that all his records are sealed from the public shows you one horrific scam on the American people that the MSM covered-up and still covers-up.

Even the Sierra Club, which I maintained a membership for 20 years, took a bribe for $100 million to make sure they “fought for the environment” but not to address the most destructive issue destroying our environment: endless immigration.  I quit in 1998 to protest, but the lie continues.

The greatest lie:  the 1965 Immigration Reform Act continues to pour 1.2 million legal immigrants into this country, annually, but it’s overloading and overwhelming us. But no matter how snarled our cities or how much air pollution, and worse, contamination of the air, land and water—MSM will not report the facts.  And more than that, as Ms. Parker said, we’re kept in the dark as to the fact that we’re about to add 110 million more people to our country—that will destroy our ability to sustain ourselves with water, food and energy.

Along with that, the MSM refuses to report on chain-migration, 50,000 diversity visas annually and 300,000 anchor babies at we foot their bills.  Notice they never go after any of the Senators or House Members as to what’s really happening to our country.

Notice that Monsanto-Bayer-Dow Chemical legally poison us with Roundup, glyphosates, GMO’s and dozens of other chemicals, but they bribe Washington DC bureaucrats to make sure they avoid prosecution. But MSM help them in every way.  That’s why “fake news” actually operates at multiple levels.

If you look to Los Angeles, California, notice the MSM refuses to report on the horrific 62,000 homeless making LA a third world country of diseases, rats, feces, poverty and human misery not seen in this country, ever.  This four-minute video will make you sick. I witnessed this situation on my 2018 bicycle journey down the West Coast. It repeats in San Francisco, Seattle, Chicago, NYC and more. It’s just plain sickening:

And then, you’ve got everyone screaming about “Catastrophic Climate Destabilization,” but you will NEVER hear about the connection as to what’s driving all our problems:  Bill Maher, the comedian and political pundit said, “The great under-discussed factor in the climate crisis is that there are just too many of us.”  Yet, every environmental and climate change organization avoids any mention of the main driver: human overpopulation.

At our southern border:  nothing has been done to stop the immigration invasion in 30 years.  It keeps coming and coming like an Energizer Bunny. I visited for the sixth time in the past 20 years. Our borders remain wide open! Illegals are swamping our welfare systems, schools, communities and changing the demographic and language of our republic.  But you won’t get the straight scoop from the Main Stream Media because they are in cahoots with Congress to let as many refugees into this country until we face destruction from within, and essentially total cultural, sociological and ecological collapse.  Someone with more money than God, wants to kill the United States of America. And, they are succeeding.

Both parties remain complicit in destroying our country from within by allowing the refugee-world instant and total access.  But the MSM remains the worst aspect of what’s destroying our country.  What’s worse, I haven’t seen any change in 30 years, and I am not optimistic that Congress or the MSM will do a d*mned thing in the future.

Do you think Congress will finally shut the borders? Do you think Republicans and/or Democrats will stop the flood? Do you think they will correct the lawlessness of employers? Do you think our children will survive another 110 million immigrants by 2050?

Good luck with that!

Nearly every evening in the news, you hear about a racial smear, a racist act, discrimination on a job site, prejudice at a school function and another dozen charges against white people in America.

This country remains a dominate ethnic group of European-Americans, but not for long as Caucasians will become a minority by 2042.  Additionally, they suffer every charge of racism in this country. Bernie Sanders, Maxine Waters, Don Lemon and countless others call the president of the United States a ‘racist’.  Of course, they also say that most Americans are racists.  (Source: PewResearchCenter.org, minority-majority future for America.)

Ironically, if you listen to House Members John Lewis, Maxine Waters, Alexandria Cortez, Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, Hank Johnson and many other minority leaders—whites are the single worst element of human beings in America.  Whites are racist, xenophobic, nativist and supremists.

Still further irony, if any of them moved back to their racial roots of their own countries, they would be living in overpopulated, violent and intensively squalor-filled third world regions.  Instead of living in luxury, they couldn’t count on their next meal or clean water. On average, four million children and eight million adults die annually in those countries where they originated. (UN report on starvation worldwide)

Ironically, if not paradoxically, millions upon millions of “people of color” from six continents desperately want to move to America for a better life, for freedom, for equal rights and for opportunity.

At the same time, minorities in America enjoy their own brand of ‘racism’ that cannot be questioned.  They can practice their racism without a whisper or question by the majority white race.

Starting at the top, the Black Caucus in Washington DC remains entirely African-American.  The Hispanic Caucus also remains one ethnic group with no outsiders allowed.  If white lawmakers entertained a “White Caucus”, they would be branded ‘racists’ and see their political careers destroyed overnight.

Black Americans enjoy “Black History Month”, but if whites ever attempted “White History Month,” they would be run out of town on a rail.  The same goes with “Miss Black America.”  But if anyone attempted to run a “Miss White America” pageant, all hell would break loose.

The same goes with “Affirmative Action.”  This government-forced law gives minorities preference over white people, whether they earned the academic skills to do the job or not.  If “White Affirmative Action” gave whites a leg up, you would see riots against it.

In the entertainment field, Black Entertainment Television features “blacks only” movies, TV and other media events with only black players.  If anyone attempted to feature “White Entertainment Television”, lawsuits and violence would erupt.

If you’re a white person who moved to a black neighborhood, how would you fare?  If you’re a white neighborhood, you must be integrated.  If you’re a white state like Minnesota, the government moved 125,000 Somali immigrants into Minneapolis to turn it into a free-for-all multicultural experiment.  But no one can speak up about what’s really happening in Minneapolis—drug gangs, Somalia Sharia gangs, FGM, honor killings, jihadists groomed and ready, schools destroyed, hundreds of millions of dollars scammed from their EBT cards and taken out of our country, knife attacks and pushing old people off their bicycles or terrifying them as they try to walk home. If you say anything, you’re a racist.

The long-beleaguered NAACP organization strictly allows blacks only. If anyone tried to form the NAAWP, what do you think would happen?

Across America, you see all-black organizations from lawyers to colleges to culinary alliances to Black Wall Street to Black Engineers.  You’ve got the Rainbow Push Coalition to the National Urban League to Blacknews.com.

If you include Asian, Russian, Chinese and Mexican organizations, it becomes sobering that America is no longer a unified country of Americans.  The Mexican organization of La Rasa, “The Race”, stands as a club for the specific recapture of the four border states.  The Muslim Brotherhood and Council on American Islamic Relations possesses a single purpose to overturn the U.S. Constitution and install Sharia Law or Islamic law.

“Islam isn’t in America to be equal to any faith, but to become dominant. The Qur’an should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on Earth.” Omar Ahmed, director of Council on American Islamic Relations.

So, is America racist because it’s a white majority or is it racist because it’s a minority of blacks?  Is racism a black-white phenomenon or is it a Hispanic-Asian-Indian-Chinese-Arabic and every other ethnic group in the world?  Is racism biological or is it learned?  Is racism tribal?

Do blacks or any other race want to co-exist with whites or the other way around?  Is there any chance that, at some point in the future, through education and total equality, we won’t hear of racial conflict in the streets of America with every newscast?

If the current immigration-onslaught continues into America for another 30 years, another 110 million immigrant-people of color will dominate this nation.

Will our country be able to function?  Will it remain stable?  Will it be able to dance with hundreds of incompatible cultures, languages and world views?    Will it fracture as whites flee the cities like they fled Detroit or are now fleeing “Somaliland” in Minneapolis, or Mexico-Los Angeles?  Will America survive its ever-growing and hostile parallel societies such as Minneapolis, Miami, New York City and Detroit?

Will we survive the certain water, energy, land and resources exhaustion that we most definitely face?  Will we survive the environmental degradation and quality of life factors already coming down around our ears? How many more gridlocked, air polluted and overwhelmed cities can America survive?

If we don’t change course, this ‘future’ is coming and it’s coming fast.  What are you thinking and what are you doing about it?  Finally, is it in our best interest as a civilization and our children’s futures to continue mass immigration into America?

If you look at these two videos, you will see exactly what I am speaking about:

In his epic book, The Call of the Wild, Jack London said, “There’s a patience in the wild: dogged, tireless, persistent—like life itself.” You might like the movie portraying the book with Harrison Ford as the grizzled old man who befriends the dog, Buck. The movie runs nationally this Friday.  I hope it inspires all of us as to our own potential in the face of enormous challenges not only as individuals, but also as a nation.

A couple of years ago, I led a group of  60 to 70-year old’s across America on a coast-to- coast of the Northern Tier. We started on the Pacific Ocean at Astoria, Oregon to the Atlantic Ocean of Bar Harbor, Maine.  It stretched across 13 states and 4,200 miles of rugged mountains, the vastness of the northern Great Plains, the beauty of the five Great Lakes, Niagara Falls, and the serendipity of the Catskill Mountain chain.  To take such a bicycle journey at our advanced ages, took guts, gumption and true grit.  One of the group, Gerry, brought his guitar to sing songs from Reba McIntyre to Willie Nelson and Roy Orbison.  We sang our hearts out around the campfire nightly. As you can imagine, everyone had been married once or twice, and even three times.  The stories around the campfire proved hilarious and just plain wild and crazy.  The book published in January: Old Men Bicycling Across America: A Journey Beyond Old Age.  It gives a rollicking story of how old men manage their triumphs, failures and disappointments, yet move forward.  It also shows anyone, especially the 80 million baby boomers, how to ride across America themselves.

Two of the guys on this journey proved themselves “day riders” for all their lives. But, at over 70, they enjoyed retirement with time to spare. All of us sported gray hair, or no hair, gray beards, high blood pressure, bad knees, sore hips, touch of diabetes, and spare tires around our mid-sections.  One note after a week on the road, “Frosty, I had no idea this bicycle trip could be so fantastic…and we’re just starting. This is the greatest experience of my life.”  I responded, “You’re welcome, Don. For certain, it’s going to get even more fantastic.”

At one point as we reached Niagara Falls, we saw the water cascading in a thunderous roar, a double rainbow over the falls and the eclipse of the sun all in five minutes.  It proved one of those moments the literary greats call “eudemonia” or that perfect second where everything in your life meshes for an instant of sheer euphoria.

For certain, when you overrun the age of 70, your life changes. Your perspectives change. Your understandings of the years, piled up like silage in a silo, remind you that this life is a terminal experience.  At this age, you’ve used up a good bit of your time on Earth.  You might enjoy a year or ten years, but you’re not sure as you attend a lot of funerals.

But if you’ve lived through those first 70 years, you’ve got a sense of patience that allows you to penetrate life’s challenges with the wisdom of your old advanced longevity.  You know that if you maintain your course with dogged determination, you will ride across that mountain chain, one pass at a time.  You will cross the Great Plains one mile at a time. You will glide by the Great Lakes one day at a time.

You also know that by being tireless in your pursuit, the final victory shall come into sight; in this case, the Atlantic Ocean.  Sure, your legs hurt, and your high blood pressure throbs in your head, but you rest, drink some water, and then, you set out again with dogged determination and tireless resolve.  It’s a part of your essence as a human being.

When you hit those Catskill Mountains along the Appalachian Trail, you realize that your persistence brought you this far, to this age, and so, why not present yourself onto the doorstep of life’s ongoing challenges?  Really, on your bicycle or a hike or a canoe trip or a XC ski trip or anything that you enjoy outdoors, you understand that age does not define you. You’re living in your “eudemonia” pure and simple.  It’s that “sweet spot” in your life that encourages great joy and gratitude for being alive.

That’s what I discovered with those grizzled old men who rode with me.  Gerry, Robert, Don, Frank! They delighted in their lives as if they were kids.  They all knew that their windows of opportunity grew narrower with every sunset.  That’s all the more sobering when one of our fathers died at 46 and another one died at 62.  In my case, one of my brothers died at 50 and the other a stroke at 55.  It gives you pause when you realize you’ve exceeded those ages already.  Yet, you persist in your own choice of courage.

London portrayed it in that courageous dog, Buck. As the story goes, dog thieves, in 1897, dognapped Buck out of his comfortable California home. He found himself shoved onto a train and whisked away to Alaska-Yukon and harnessed to a dog sled.  End of luxury life: beginning of the hard life in the frozen north. (By the way, I cycled to Dawson in the Yukon to stand by Jack London’s cabin where he wrote his stories in the Gold Rush of 1897-98. He lived in a tiny log cabin at 100 square feet, potbellied stove, small wooden desk, chair and bed, plus an outhouse. Talk about hard living at minus 50 degrees below zero F.)

Today, should you choose to harness yourself to your touring bicycle for such adventure or any outdoor adventure, you too, face hellacious mountains to cross under your own steam. You will encounter dry, hot, miserable deserts that could sweat you to death, cramp your liquid-starved thighs and even break your will with the heat.

And talk about the liquid-misery of rain, cold, ice, even snow!  Nothing like riding into a rainstorm to drench yourself in liquid-wretchedness.  You’re soaked, you’re sweating, glasses fogged, and everything in-between. In any rain, sheer liquid torture! Same on the Alaska Highway out of the Yukon.  On that road, you might meet up with a grizzly. We did! We lived or this tale wouldn’t be told.  One thing stands as a certainty on your adventure: Life lets you know you are alive!

“In this manner, Buck fought forgotten ancestors. They quickened the old life within him, the old tricks which they had stamped into the heredity of the breed were his tricks… And when, on the still cold nights, he pointed his nose at a star and howled long and wolf-like, it was his ancestors, dead and dust, pointing their noses at the stars and howling down through the centuries and through him.”

Like Buck, you choose to move forward. You make choices.  In those selections, you create an extraordinary life.  You never know what’s around the next bend.  You never know where you might sleep that night.  You devour food with rapacious gluttony.  You never know who or what you will meet in the next sunrise.  Isn’t that the “Call of the Wild” in each of us?

You thrust yourself into the adventure.  You engage it with the tenacity of Buck’s courage.  With your 70 years of living, you choose your own valor at our own speed.

This coming summer of the “Roaring 20’s” of the 21^st century, whether you day-ride or explore across the planet, young or old—let’s all pursue our own creative and expansive lives on our bicycles or our chosen mode of travel.  Much like Buck in Jack London’s epic novel, a real-life adventure awaits you.

Few want to address the single most ominous issue facing America in the 21^st century.  This dilemma threatens every American who will be alive in 2050.  It will affect persons of every race, creed and color.  It will affect the rich, poor and in-between.  Nobody, and I mean, NOBODY, will escape its consequences.

Yet, few want to talk about this problem. Few politicians respond to its implications. Not one single TV network will pursue it.  The Mainstream Media avoids it at all costs.  Governors dodge it.  Big city mayors from Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, Miami, San Francisco, Seattle, Detroit, Denver, Houston and Phoenix—will not whisper a word about it.

No matter how snarled and gridlocked our cities around this country, and even the world, or how polluted our air, or poisoned our oceans, or the chaos of the “Sixth Extinction Session”, or, dare I say it, “Catastrophic Climate Destabilization”, not one single world leader will address it. And, religious leaders arrogantly continue promoting it.

Everybody knows what’s driving it, but most remain fearful of uttering a single word or pointing a finger.  Why? They will be called the R-word, N-word, X-word.

But these facts cannot be called any names.  They’re just facts.  And, these facts threaten the foundation of America’s future.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, Pew Research Center, Fogel/Martin “US Population Projections”, www.NumbersUSA.org, and  other research organizations—the United States accelerated from 200 million people in 1965 to 300 million people in 2006, to 330 million in 2020 and we are projected to reach 440 million people, by 2050.  If we maintain our current path, we will reach 625 million by 2095.

That means, we face the consequences of adding 110,000,000 (million) more people, net gain, within 30 years.  Yet, you won’t hear a word from any leader in America.  A few hundred top experts like Leon Kolankiewicz, Fred Elbel, Marylou Tanton, Tim Murray, Dan Stein, Roy Beck, Brenda Walker, Paul Nachman,  Valerie Price, Glen Colton, Paul Ehrlich, E.O. Wilson, Kathleene Parker, Jason Brent, Bob Dane, John-Debbie Rohe, Dave Gardner, Dave Paxson, Bromwell Ault and dozens of others write books, speak out and present their cases to every media organization in America.  But, to no avail.  You will not see any of the media educating or alerting the American people.  You will not see any contingency plans. You will not see any preventive plans.

Ironically, their children will be caught in this demographic “Catch 22” like the rest of us.  And, all the big corporate leaders silence anyone who speaks up.  We’re blocked from 60 Minutes, Face the Nation, Meet the Press, Talk of the Nation on NPR and PBS.  We’re blocked from CNN on down the line. Radio show hosts flee this topic.

At some point, America will race past the tipping point of sustaining our overloaded cities and entire U.S. population.  Author Chris Clugston in his latest brilliant book, Blip: Humanity’s 300-year self-terminating experiment with industrialism, said we face running out of all the metal-minerals that facilitate and power our massive cities and supply routes.  When? He states that we face certain collapse by 2050.  The book proves sobering if not terrifying as to his extraordinary research and triangulation of what we face in 30 years.

The single greatest source of power in the world, oil, will be exhausted in this century.  Probably in 2050, give or take a few years.  Once that happens, how do you feed 10 billion people on this planet? There’s no viable alternative energy on the horizon to replace oil.  Walter Youngquist, energy expert, said it best, “As we go from this happy hydrocarbon bubble we have reached now to a renewable energy resource economy, which we do this century, will the “civil” part of civilization survive? As we both know there is no way that alternative energy sources can supply the amount of per capita energy we enjoy now, much less for the 10 billion expected by 2050. And energy is what keeps this game going. We are involved in a Faustian bargain—selling our economic souls for the luxurious life of the moment, but sooner or later the price has to be paid.”

What’s driving our overpopulation juggernaut?  We all know: legal and illegal immigration, their birth rates and chain migration.  Last year, 2019, over 3.1 million immigrants penetrated America, legal, illegal and their birth rates. Why?  They fled their own overpopulated countries.  Note that American women of all colors averaged 2.03 children per woman since 1970.  It’s not us doing to ourselves, but our U.S. Congress doing it to us.  And Congress will not stop the deluge.

In the name of common sense, why?  What makes any of them think they enjoy immunity?  The immigration issue has been front and center for 30 years.  Instead of correcting it and stopping the invasion, Congress does nothing to secure our borders.  The big money people and pompous politicians must think they and their children will be immune as to adding another 110 million people within 30 years.

What’s it going to be like in 2050 in America with another 110 million people?  In the world with another 3,000,000,000 (billion) people?

Our problems will become irreversible and unsolvable.  If you’ve traveled through China, India or Bangladesh—you know what I’m talking about. If you’ve stepped into Mexico City, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Sao Paulo or New York City—you have a taste of what we face.  Cities of over 10-20 million create chronic madness of crime, poverty, misery, mental instability, drug addiction, homelessness and worse.  Air pollution, water contamination, degradation of Nature, and hopelessness abound. Notice all the sickness and human depravity on such programs as “Criminal Minds”; “Special Victims Unit”; “NCIS” and many more.

Our water shortages will become acute and dangerous.  Our energy consumption will create horrifically polluted skies, acid rain and contaminated soils.  Our arable land will diminish as we destroy wilderness and accelerate species extinction of all our fellow creatures.  Gridlocked traffic will paralyze our cities because 110 million people means a doubling of our 35 most populated cities.  Quality of life and standard of living will drop like a brick in water.  You will need a lottery ticket to visit our national parks.  The cost of living will explode through the roof.  I could name another two dozen consequences that few think about.

Just think of the sociological, racial, linguistic and religious impacts of adding 110 million people with hundreds of different world views, religions and cultures.  We’re looking at fracturing and fragmenting America into hundreds of different ethnic enclaves—all in conflict with one another.

Are you asking any of these questions of your senators, House member, mayor or governor?  What kind of a civilization are we bequeathing to our children?  How can we change course?  What about “carrying capacity” study for every city?  What about a “population stabilization policy” for every city and state according to its water, land and resources?  How can you save the future for your children?

Dear reader, what are your concerns and solutions?  Write me, frostyw@juno.com , and I will bring them to the American public. We’re all in this together.  We all need  to take action if the United States of America hopes to survive the 21^st century.

In a five minute astoundingly simple yet brilliant video, “Immigration, Poverty, and Gum Balls”, Roy Beck, director of www.numbersusa.ORG, graphically illustrates the impact of overpopulation.  Take five minutes to see for yourself:

Last week, while my friend Steven and I rode up a ski lift at Winter Park Colorado, I shared my latest book by astronaut Scott Kelly:  Endurance: A  Year in Space—A Lifetime of Discovery.  He spent a year on the International Space Station.  He lived the most time in space of any American.  This week, Christina Koch returned from 328 days in space—the longest for an American woman.   I can’t wait to read her book.

Last year, I visited the Kennedy Space Center with a real-life simulation of blasting off to space.  Talk about thrilling!  It chronicled our space exploration from John Glenn to Neil Armstrong standing on the moon.   My wife Sandi and I enjoyed a thrilling day of the NASA space program.

In the autumn, I watched Brad Pitt in Ad Astra, a space movie where he flies to the moon. From there, he blasts off to Mars in search of his father who suffered a bout of ‘space-craziness’.

The entire movie showed humans crammed into spaceships that landed on concrete bunkers on the moon.  Everywhere: computers, steel, concrete and glass!  The bunkers showed pictures of waterfalls, grassy fields and animals to help the astronauts feel more at home.  But in reality, the moon remained barren, cold and dead.  When Pitt blasted off to Mars, he landed on a cold, lifeless and indolent piece of rock known as Mars.  On Mars, the same concrete, steel and glass!

The movie SO depressed me that I walked out of it.

As I talked about my experiences while riding up the Panoramic Lift to 12,000 feet, Steven said, “That’s all well and good, but you can’t camp on Mars.”

Steven’s remarks made me think.  Right now, humanity ransacks this planet with enormous amounts of biosphere exhaust via billions of cars, chimneys, wood and chemical pollution.  We degrade the oceans with over 5.5 trillion pieces of plastic.  We’re inject over 70,000 chemicals into the air, water and land 24/7.  We’re changing the DNA of animals and plants by making them genetically modified organisms. We’re causing the extinction of 100 species 24/7 without even a second thought.  We’re packing the planet with an unheard-of number of human beings at 7.6 billion—headed for 10.1 billion and up to 14 or 15 billion in the next 80 years.

In other words, we live in Eden, but we’re destroying Eden as fast as we can destroy this paradise.  And then, we think we might colonize the moon and on to Mars.

Only one problem: why would we trash this planet to go live on two other barren pieces of rock?  Why don’t we take care of our primary home?

After reading Scott’s book, he suffered vision degradation. His joints were and are still crippled.  He experienced blood ‘pooling’ in his brain and in his organs from lack of gravity.  He suffered bone deterioration and loss of muscle mass.  He proved to be a staggering example of why humans won’t ever live in space or colonize another planet.  They carried him off the returning space capsule because he couldn’t walk.

As Steven said, “You can’t camp on Mars.” That begs the question for me: Why aren’t we taking better care of our viable, beautiful, living planet named Earth? It sustains us. It feeds us.  It offers incredible opportunities to live, thrive, love and enjoy our families.

Right now, in 2020 and during this decade, we face enormous challenges, if not, outright catastrophic consequences to all life on this planet—including ourselves.  I mean, we’ll add 83 million more humans to the planet in 2020. And the next year, another 83 million.  Another 1 billion humans by 2032!  The utter insanity of these additions to this planet cannot be sustained.  Last year, according to the UN, 12 million humans starved to death.  Another 1 billion humans couldn’t access clean drinking water.  In India, 77 percent of its citizens lack access to a toilet.

Yet, we’re spending  trillions of dollars trying to colonize Mars.  Going back to the moon?  Does this quest make sense to you dear fellow American?

How about we preserve, protect and cherish what we have on this planet?  How about we stop tossing our plastics and chemicals into the oceans?  How about recycling, reusing, re-fitting everything responsibly?  How about economic return incentives on all plastics, metal, glass and all other materials back into a re-use circuit?  It can be done in a heartbeat with a 50-cent deposit on everything recyclable.

What about you? Do you want your children living on Mars?  Do you think you would like to camp on the moon?  Are you satisfied with how Americans treat this North American continent with all the trash across the countryside, pollution in the air and chemicals sprayed on all our crops?  I could add another dozen nasty things we’re doing to our country: Dow Chemical, DuPont, Monsanto, Roundup, Weed-B-Gone, GMO’s, high fructose corn syrup, sucralose, dextrin, insecticides, herbicides, chemical fertilizers and the list grows.

What else grows?  Answer: cancer, heart disease, diabetes, coronavirus, Lyme’s disease, Chagas, mental illness, autism, Parkinson’s Disease, and Malaria.  Homelessness and poverty grows in America by the hundreds of thousands and into the millions.  Wars explode around the world from lack of resources.  Why don’t we solve those problems before blasting off to Mars?

Steven and me?  We like to go camping. We live to feel, touch and see the incredible beauty of this planet in our lifetimes.  We love the good green grass growing under our feet or a dive into a cool mountain lake.  We love to sling our backpacks on and tramp through a field of wildflowers.  We love to sit by a campfire’s glowing embers. We like to follow that curling gray smoke as it rises through the pine trees and guides our eyes to those distant stars in the ink-black of the night sky.

(Backpacking the Colorado Trail at Elk Creek at 11,000 feet)

Let’s take care of this precious planet, first, middle and always.  Wouldn’t you agree?  What are you doing in your neighborhood to care for this planet?

Norah O’Donnell, CBS anchor, said, “I’ve never seen so much cultural change in such a short period of time.”

Whether she was talking about her office arena being changed from all sexual conquest allegations, or what’s happening to the America’s culture, she’s correct on both counts.

One outspoken American said, “Multiculturalism creates racism.”  Another said, “Racism is a direct result of multiculturalism.”

“Diversity within a nation destroys unity and leads to civil wars,” said social scientist Garret Hardin. “Immigration, a benefit during the youth of a nation, can act as a disease in its mature state. Too much internal diversity in large nations has led to violence and disintegration. We are now in the process of destabilizing our own country. The magic words of destabilizers are ‘diversity’ and ‘multiculturalism’.”

Today, over 45 million foreign-born people now live in America as our Congress imports in excess of 1.5 million legal and illegal immigrants annually, their negative impact on America’s culture rains down on cities and ascends to the Halls of Congress.  Ironically, all of it counters U.S. culture built over the past 240 years.

In the past month, House of Representatives member Jesus Garcia (D-IL), introduced, HR 5383, a bill he calls, A New Way Forward.  Forty-four other democrats, such as Omar, AOC, Tlaib and Waters, who exhibit extreme anti-American bias, sponsored the bill.  It promotes illegal alien citizenship, criminal deportee aliens a free pass back to America, open borders, anti-ICE enforcement of America’s immigration laws, and worse, American taxpayers foot the bills.  It abolishes our right to control who comes over our borders into America.

Reporter Tucker Carlson exposed the bill last week, “A document produced by Democrats to promote the bill says: ‘Convictions of convicted criminal undocumented immigrants should not lead to deportation. Keep in mind, we’re not talking about convictions for double parking. The bill targets felony convictions – serious crimes that send you to prison for years.”  A press release from Rep., Jesus Garcia, D-Ill., is explicit about this portion of the bill.

“Garcia brags that the bill will break the “prison to deportation pipeline.” How does the bill do that? Under current U.S. law, legal U.S. immigrants can be deported if they commit an “aggravated felony” or a “crime of moral turpitude” – that is, a vile, depraved act, like molesting a child. Under the New Way Forward Act, “crimes of moral turpitude” are eliminated entirely as a justification for deportation. And the category of “aggravated felony” gets circumscribed, too.”

What’s happening to our U.S. culture of law and order, personal accountability and personal responsibility?  People from other countries have worked their way into some of the highest offices in America: example, House member Ilhan Omar (D-MN), from Somalia, faces felony accounts of illegal immigration and marriage to her brother.  She carries diametrically opposing views as to U.S. laws and citizenship. She swore into office on the Quran, which promotes Sharia Law over U.S. Constitutional Law.  Ironically, these immigrants arrive from failed third world countries, yet want to impose such degraded standards onto our country.

Consider this: Under current law, immigrants who commit serious crimes – such as robbery, fraud, or child sexual abuse – must be deported, regardless of the sentence they receive. Other crimes – less severe ones like racketeering – require deportation as long as the perpetrator receives at least a one-year sentence.

Carlson said, “We checked the Bureau of Justice Statistics. According to federal data, crimes like car theft, fraud, and weapons offenses all carry average prison sentences of fewer than five years. And that’s just looking at averages. There are people who commit rape, child abuse and even manslaughter and receive sentences of fewer than five years. Lots of them.

“If the New Way Forward Act becomes law, immigrants who commit those crimes and receive those sentences would remain in the country. They’ll all be eligible for citizenship one day, too.”

If this information doesn’t show you a total disregard for your own American citizenship, this bill would allow a Mexican drug cartel leader released from prison, to freely return to America immediately. And if he wants, he could come here illegally, and it wouldn’t be a crime – because the bill also decriminalizes illegal entry into America, even by those previously deported.

This Shows You How Corrupt Our House Members

From 2002 to 2018, 480,000 people were deported for illegal entry or reentry into America. And under this bill, you must buy them all a plane ticket to return. The tickets alone would cost a billion dollars, and that’s before Democrats make you start paying for these criminals’ free health care, food stamps and housing, too.

“The New Way Forward Act fundamentally inverts every assumption you have about America,” said Carlson. “Under this legislation, the criminals are the victims. Law enforcement is illegitimate. It’s racist, just like the country you live in, and the only solution is to get rid of both. America would be better off as a borderless rest area for the world’s worst predators and parasites.”

To compound this approaching American nightmare, as Norah McDonnell said, “I’ve never seen so much cultural change in such a short period of time.”

The questions I ask you as an American citizen, do you want to see your country changed from law and order to open borders?   Do you want criminal aliens to enjoy a return after deportation? Do you want to see ICE disemboweled? Do you want or will we survive our country changing from English to 100 different languages? Do you want to see another 110 million legal immigrants land on our shores within 30 years?  Because, that’s what’s coming.

Call your senators and House rep:  1 202 224 3121 or 1 888 995 2086. Demand a stop to all immigration and stop this HR 5383, The New Way Forward bill.

Email response from a reader from Chicago:

Mr. Wooldridge: “Sanity won in the U.S. Senate. Thank God! This Congress consists of misfits, criminals, and corrupt representatives.

“As for stopping the mass immigration among other things well, I believe the President has tried and every time he made a move to do something, it was blocked by Democrat/Communist leftovers from Obama who could care less about the country or its future.  The Democrats are relying upon the ILLEGAL aliens voting in our next elections to keep them in power.  However, the likes of the Muslims and trans-weirdo’s getting into power will destroy the last bastion of freedom in this world.  I am not a gun owner, but I am taking classes now to own a gun.  I see no other way to protect my wife and myself from the sick bastards that are being let into the country.

“When Congress-people only leave office by dying we have a very serious problem. Please God, help the normal people of the U.S.A. regain the country and bring sanity to get us out of this mess.”  Barry, Chicago, IL

Another email:

Ruth said, “The truly pathetic thing is that Pelosi, Schiff(t) for Brains, Nadler, et al, don’t realize how STUPID their antics look to normal people.”

Judi said, “Artificial Democrat House Speaker Nancy Pelosi tried to attach glitz and glamor to the most repugnant political act in all of American history yesterday. Imagine Pelosi handing out commemorative pens—with her name on them—after signing a resolution to transmit two articles of impeachment against President Trump to the Senate for trial!  Gall never had it so good!

“The commemorative pens are the equivalent of Pelosi perfuming the feces-filled streets of the once beautiful San Francisco, now one of the nation’s biggest health threats after Pelosi left it to rot while playing out the Impeachment Game.”

At the end of the State of the Union address, Pelosi tore up her copy of the speech.  Worse, it proved to be a brilliant celebration of America’s reemergence on the world stage and an honoring of a 100-year-old Tuskegee Airman General Charles McGee from WWII, an Army Sergeant meeting his wife and kids, a Black girl gaining a scholarship and another ten people regaining their lives as Americans.

But the liberals featured their two Muslims dishonoring the Black General McGee and hating everything about America’s history. Omar and Tlaib need to be tossed out of Congress for being un-American. One should be returned to Somalia and the other over to Palestine.

What absolutely infuriates me: Maxine Waters, Charles Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, Nadler, Lewis, Tlaib, AOC and the rest of their ilk—spouted “impeachment rhetoric” even before Trump became president of the United States.

Those people don’t serve us; they inflame us and our country. That 78-year-old, wicked witch of the north, Nancy Pelosi, suffering from onset dementia, represents California’s failed nightmare of over 70,000 homeless people in L.A. and San Francisco. Instead of solving America’s problems in her own back yard, she celebrates illegal aliens and welcomes as many as possible to crash our borders.  She said, “These immigrants represent America’s future.” If they do, the future for our kids: very, very bleak!  She stands as one of the main reasons for over 25 million illegal aliens invading our sovereignty—in her forever congressional, corrupt, criminal career.

We Americans stressed over two years of the bogus Mueller Report.  It divided us with no substance.  It cost us with no cause.  It inflamed and divided us.

Yes, Trump may be bombastic, rude and tweets colorful missives.  Yes, he shakes up things.  At the same time, he gets America’s work done for the American people.  Obama sounded nice, looked smooth; but accomplished mostly nothing in eight wasted years.

The House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate?  They haven’t done squat for years and decades.  We give them a 17 percent approval rating with each polling.  If any of us failed so miserably at our jobs, we would be fired with a 17 percent report on our work evaluation.

As Pelosi tore up Trump’s speech, she metaphorically shredded the fabric of our society.  She ripped apart our continuity.  She tore at the foundation of our Republic.  She’s useless and needs to be put out to pasture.

We need Term Limits of 10 years maximum for anyone in the House and Senate.  We need our laws and country respected.  We need to honor our culture, language and work laws.  We need our representatives to do their jobs, which they aren’t.

Instead of impeaching and harassing our president, Congress needs to stop all immigration. Congress needs to enforce existing laws against hiring, transporting and housing border violators. It needs to stop the 300,000 ‘anchor babies’ becoming birthright citizens illegally, annually.  Congress needs to stop chain migration and diversity visas. It needs to stop funding the Afghanistan and Iraq Wars and bring home our troops.  Those 100 senators and 435 House Members need to serve us instead of themselves.  If not, they need to quit and get a real job, where they actually must accomplish something daily, or get fired.

What do you think we need to do to get our elected officials to actually serve us?

Ten years ago, my column, “What if 20 million illegal aliens vacated America” published with incredible responses.  (Source: NewWithViews.com, October, 29 2007) Over 100 emails landed in my ‘in-box’.  Angry Americans, fed-up Americans and really PO’d Americans!  Even radio host Michael Savage read the column verbatim on his show.  It still makes the rounds on social media, but for some mysterious reason, my byline vanished as the original author.  For a cliff note review, that commentary chronicled all the benefits Americans would enjoy if those 20 million border hoppers, anchor baby mothers, welfare recipients and illegal workers and their employers actually followed the rule of law—and were sent back to their countries.

At the time, Colorado Congressman Tom Tancredo spoke up nationally about closing our borders and obeying our laws.  He received white-hot anger from La Rasa, ACLU, CAIR and the Southern Poverty Law Center—groups that do everything in their power to destroy America’s borders and legal citizenship.

In the past ten years since that commentary, the borders remain as wide open as Maxine Waters’ mouth, immigration added 35 million more people to the USA, net gain, and, not a single person in Congress has succeeded in stopping the endless flow of legal and illegal immigrants.  Big corporations like Marriott, Holiday Inn, Hormel Foods, Tyson Chicken, Chipotle and hundreds more, bribe the majority of 535 Congressional critters to make sure they take no action to stop the invasion. Results: our country continues to fracture, polarize and fragment faster than ever.  Not to mention our exploding cities, poverty and population hyper-growth.

What few understand in Washington DC: these immigrants could care less about America or about becoming Americans.  The liberal elites think they will never be touched by those unwashed and illiterate masses collecting in our cities.  They feel immune.  Lewiston, Maine or Minneapolis, Minnesota or Miami, Florida or Los Angeles, California?  That won’t happen to my city!  Unfortunately, it IS happening to every city in America with a welfare office and refugee center.

So, last week, I interviewed Director Fred Elbel (www.Cairco.org)  about how White Americans face being displaced from their own country.  ‘The Great Displacement of Americans: Devolving Western Civilization by Frosty Wooldridge”  NewsWithViews, January 30, 2020.

Once again, that commentary hit a cord in over 100 readers who responded.  While millions read these commentaries, very few return with their own feelings.  Readers shake their heads, feel powerless and simply accept what’s happening as if there are no alternatives.  I’ve called it, “Civilizational Despair.”  It’s so exasperating to watch those 535 elected people do NOTHING to stop this invasion no matter what the consequences.  At some point, we’ll all be riding a sinking ship as we add another 110 million people by 2050.  By that time, TOO LATE to save ourselves or our children!  We’ll all become victims, much like Europe today.

In the meantime, you might share the frustration of readers from across America who did respond to that commentary last week:

“Mr. Wooldridge, You are correct, but it isn’t, in my view, just a cultural war, it’s also a racial/ethnic war. I will be candid, blunt, even. As America browns, the Caucasian people will become the minority; and it won’t take 20 years.  [Pew Research Center says America’s new majority, Latino-Mexicans, will become 51 percent by 2042.]

“The irony of this is, in part, the leftist Caucasians who allow this, and even seem to desire it, will find themselves in that same minority, and the majority will vote them, much to their dismay, out of office, and those leftists will find, albeit far too late, they are no more loved and appreciated by the various non-white cultures that  we the conservatives are hoping to desperately hang onto America, and what is left of it.

“It’s been oft said this nation will not fall from any outside forces but from the traitors and fools within.” Best to ya, Richard

Next responder:

“Mr. Wooldridge, Totally agree with you.  It’s SICKENING to think we fell for this.  Unbelievable that this was started by just a handful of people that could have been easily run out of office but managed to stay there for decades plotting our demise when we paid them handsomely, trusted them, and worse honored them.  What FOOLS we were!

“They must have been laughing so hard when our backs were turned.  And to think most of them could be considered insane by any psychological standards.  Many were sexual deviants, cowards, traitors and little cheats.

“You want to solve the problem?   START hanging them.  We have the evidence, the crimes.   That is why you have the very, very, serious demise of your country right now.

“The enemy is on your soil without FIRING a shot!  Thanks to the traitors you elect year in and year out to do this to you.  Now you ask me who has a mental illness?  Who is really insane?

“Combining the immigration rate, their high birth rates and our declining birth rate and aging population and I predict a little more than a decade and you’ll see nothing but third world citizens surrounding you and salivating at your demise.” Nelson

Another responder:

“Dear Frosty: Excellent article about the displacement of Western civilization. Unfortunately, however, Spence’s article, which you quoted in part, mentions, “This war is not properly called a “Global War on Terror.” What we’re up against is the world’s largest and most violent religion: Islam. I doubt that anyone understands Islam better than the men who had been living and breathing it all their lives and killed 3,000 of us in a single morning on 9/11.”

“Well, the true enemies behind 9/11 were not that bunch of idiots who could not fly a Piper Cub, but Bush, Cheney, and their globalist masters at the Council on Foreign Relations. Those are the same people who conceived the present displacement and are financing it. They call it the New World Order. Keep up the good work!” Best, Servando

Fourth responder:

“Frosty, one of the reasons why Islam is winning in the West is because the West has bought into the lie that Islam is “a religion” among many other religions.  Islam is not just another religion, it’s a totalitarian religious-political-economic system no matter what nation with varying degrees of severity.

“Pretty simple isn’t it? Well not quite, because western Christian civilizations have been brainwashed by secularism to think that way about Hinduism, Judaism and Christianity also which is also another lie. So, the mass-mind now thinks of religion as something to do apart from the rest of life, when in fact it’s just the opposite.

“There is no government on earth without a religio-philosophic foundation, none! Never has been, never will be because we cannot govern people apart from a consensus of religious or philosophic belief.

“Yesterday I had a conversation with a very nice elderly Swedish lady who has been living in Florida for years, but is returning to the land of her birth. I am of the opinion that she knows nothing about the Islamic spiral her native country is now in. Any nation that will not only not protect its citizens from the ravages of foreign invaders, but favors the invader over the citizen is a failed state. It’s only a matter of time and Sweden will become an Islamic state because this is the stated objective of Islam and Swedes are not resisting.

“The problem the west has is with turkeys and foxes in the pulpits!

‘I wish I had ready access to a letter I wrote a couple of years ago wherein I cited quotes from the state church in Sweden that in effect proclaimed victory for Islamic invaders. It sounded like the French Vichy following the Nazi takeover of their nation.” Respectfully, Jon

Do you see the ‘realities’ of their responses?  Can you see it in your city or one near you?  Dear reader, this ‘thing’ races toward us at breakneck speed and nobody attempts to stop it.  They haven’t stopped it in Europe and in fact, they invite it into Canada. We’re no different and we and our children face a really nasty future with another 110 million more foreigners landing on our country.  Are you okay with that?  If not, what are you doing about it?

In an interview with my longtime friend, top immigration specialist Fred Elbel, he gave a frightening look at America’s future.  He said, “In the United States, the culture war can loosely be defined as the battle between those who adhere to conservative, traditional, and constitutional views and leftists who espouse political correctness, diversity identity group politics, and belief in more than two biological sexes. (www.Cairco.org)

“Mass immigration is a tool of the global elites and of the Left – that is, of the Democrat party – to fragment American society and to displace those who adhere to traditional American values and the foundational premise of our Constitutional Republic. In other words, to disempower Whites, who will become a minority in their own country by mid-century. This isn’t a slur on Blacks or any other nationality, but in essence it is White Europeans who invented and perpetuated Western Civilization. This great displacement of Whites is therefore synonymous with the displacement of Western Civilization.”

If you don’t think this displacement isn’t going on right under your eyes, take a trip to Detroit, Michigan; Minneapolis, Minnesota; Miami, Florida; New York City; Los Angeles, Atlanta, Georgia and most other large cities with welfare offices and refugee centers.  Be prepared to see a deformation of American culture into strange and incompatible cultures taking root.

“In Canada, it’s the same, only worse,” said Elbel.  “There is no fundamental protection of freedom of speech as there is in the U.S. Indeed, Canada has hate speech laws which are readily interpreted to restrict criticism of mass immigration and the agenda of political Islam.” (Trudeau has his country’s free speech by the throat.)

One trip to Vancouver, British Columba, now known as “Hongcouver”, 65 percent pure Chinese have run native Canadians out of that city and, in time, will run them out of that province.  Soon enough, the Chinese will secede from Canada. At that point, you will see millions immigrate from China to newly named “Chinese Columbia.”

“Western Europe is much like Canada, only worse still,” said Elbel. “European nations have been systematically overwhelmed with hostile, unassimilable Islamists – Muslims. For the most part, individuals are prohibited from discussing and objecting to the invasion.

“In all of these nations, the outcome is converging on displacing the native population (e.g., Whites) who perpetuate Western Civilization. The fabric of Western Civilization is under significant threat. While we like to think that the great works of art, music, and architecture of Western Civilization will be revered and preserved forever, all of it is on the chopping block.”

In the January 25, 2020 American Greatness article, In the Global Culture War, People and Paintings Are Both at Risk, Karl Spence explains how much is at stake. The article is well worth reading in its entirety. Here are a few excerpts:

“The global war we face today puts everything—both civilian lives and cultural artifacts at grave risk. (Has anyone noticed what Muslims do to artifacts?  Answer: they blow them up or destroy them no matter what their importance to humanity.)

“This war is not properly called a “Global War on Terror.”   What we’re up against is the world’s largest and most violent religion: Islam. I doubt that anyone understands Islam better than the men who had been living and breathing it all their lives and killed 3,000 of us in a single morning on 9/11.

“I call it a cultural war because it is a struggle over whose values, beliefs and practices will prevail.”

In the end, who wins such cultural wars?  Answer: the army with the most people and religious fervor. Who might that be?  Answer: Muslims!  And, we aren’t winning it in America because we continue importing them to increase their numbers and powers.  It’s purely America’s suicide death march in action, all in the name of, “We’re a nation of immigrants.”

Would Muslims destroy the Sistine Chapel?  Yes!  How about the Mona Lisa?  Yes!  Would they destroy “David” in the city of Florence? How about Notre Dame Cathedral?   Without a doubt, they would destroy every statue and painting of every classic in the known world if they gained power.  How about the Lincoln Memorial? You betcha!  Once in control of any country, Muslims destroy any artifact that fails to honor Allah.  That means: everything.  Then, they install Sharia Law, the most barbaric practices under the sun against women, children, animals, free speech, free thought and anything rational.

And yet, the Canadian and American people, as well as all Europeans—work for their own suicides as cultures, religions and languages.

It’s curious to watch. It’s curious to see the speed of it.  It’s painfully curious that it occurred in my short lifetime on this planet.  It’s sickening how a barbaric 6^th century religion could topple Western humanity, Western civilization, Western thought and Western Law.  But day by day, city by city, that’s what’s happening to Europe, Canada, Australia and Americas.

How can we stop this accelerating destruction of Western Culture and society?

Answer:

1. Rescind the 1965 Immigration Reform Act and shutdown all immigration immediately.
2. Enforce E-Verify documentation of an employee applications.
3. Outlaw and deport all illegal alien pregnant woman who are here to birth their “anchor baby.”
4. Stop all chain migration and diversity migrations.
5. Stop all welfare, food stamps, medical care and schooling for all illegal aliens within the United States.
6. Enforce US Code 8, Section 1324 in order to take jobs away or the ability to live in the USA by anyone in violation of our laws.  The estimated 25 million illegal aliens would have no other choice but to leave on their own dime.

Have you noticed the U.S. House of Representatives, all 435 of them from 50 states, fail us year after year after year?  They refuse to attend to the needs of Americans.  They refuse to enforce our laws, maintain our borders, engage with the needs of American taxpayers and they degrade our citizenship at every turn.

The majority of them lie to us, cheat us and connive us into debt, into wars, into opioid addiction and exploitation by foreigners.  They ran us into circles for two years pretending that the Russians had anything to do with our elections or changed even one vote.  They chased after our president with an “obstruction” charge, which proved false.  Now, they’re chasing after impeachment, which won’t happen.

Men like Schiff, Nadler, and women like Pelosi and Feinstein simply “gut” reality and scream for impeachment for personal vendetta reasons. It makes them feel important.  They love to keep the American people wound up tighter than a mosquito’s ass stretched over a rain barrel.  They love to waste tax dollars on a purely partisan impeachment charade.

Congressman Adam Schiff’s accusing Trump of criminal acts is like a skunk accusing a rabbit of having bad breath!

The majority of them should be impeached because they sit on their butts and do nothing as to bettering our country.

1. They funded two outrageous wars for 19 years with nothing accomplished, not gained and nothing resolved.  They killed over 6,500 of our finest young men and women.  They killed tens of thousands of innocents in Afghanistan and Iraq. They feed the pockets of the Military Industrial Complex.  They enjoy insider trading on defense contracts that fattens their bank accounts.  They ruined thousands of men’s lives and their families with PTSD, drug addiction and divorces.  They’ve ruined thousands of kids’ lives with fathers being deployed up to 11 times. We’ve got 22 military-veteran suicides 24/7 because of those wars.  It’s criminal for the members of Congress to commit such brazen acts of stupidity for 19 years.
2. While Congress funds those wars, it has done NOTHING to stop the invasion of our country by over 25 million illegal border violators.  Congress won’t enforce the laws on our books, so employers brazenly hire them, transport them and house them.  We pay for their medical, their children’s K-12 schooling, breakfasts and lunches, and ESL classes.  We American taxpayers get screwed while those employers bribe Congress and make billions upon billions, i.e., McDonalds, Hormel, Tyson Chicken, Montfort, Chipotle’s, Marriott Hotels, Holiday Inn and hundreds more.  At the same time, we’ve got millions of Americans barely able to exist above the poverty level.  Yet, we wasted $6 trillion in those useless, stupid, and insane 19-year wars—that could have been used for life-giving education, better housing, better job training, and better everything for Americans.
3. An average of 300,000 pregnant illegal alien women birth their babies on our soil annually to gain “jackpot” or “anchor baby” status in order to tap into our welfare systems.  HR 140 by Rep Steve King of IA has sat in committee for 10 years.  It would stop this anchor baby scam, but Congress won’t pass it.  All of them should be rounded up and impeached.  The DACA scam, the same corruption caused by the members of Congress.
4. Congress gave us a $23 trillion national debt.  It’s criminal what they did to us.  And, we keep paying the interest into the billions and billions of dollars.
5. The opioid addiction epidemic:  Congress gave that to us because Big Pharma bribed enough of them and the FDA to allow those drug companies to addict and kills thousands of Americans. More than 70,000 Americans died from opioid addiction caused by members of Congress.  And not one of them faces prison.  They continually get away with murder.
6. Poisoning our food chain:  Monsanto-Bayer-Dow Chemical companies poison our food supply with deadly accuracy 24/7.  They produce poisoned GMO corn-soy and other crops. They spread Roundup and Weed B Gone on every crop in the USA. They are  killing the pollinators and they are killing us. All those poisons seep into our ground water.  Acid rain falls from the skies loaded with chemicals.  Will Congress stop them?  Not a chance!  Money remains the top “god” in the majority of Congressmen’s panoply of tools for self-enrichment.  Jane Goodall said, “Historians will look back on the 20^th and 21^st centuries and ask the simple question, ‘Why did humans poison their food supply?’”   Cancers, birth defects, autism, heart disease, diabetes, dementia and just about all our health problems stem from the  poisonous foods we eat, especially fast foods and processed foods.
7. Right now, 5.5 trillion pieces of plastic float or sink into all the oceans of the world. We’ve known about the 100-ton “Great Pacific Garbage Patch” for 25 years.  Has Congress enacted a simple 25 cent deposit-return policy to give economic incentives to return all plastics, glass and metals back to recycling centers to have them properly recycled or captured?  Answer: not a damned single bill in Congress to solve this national and international nightmare for all living creatures on this planet.  Somebody’s got to lead the world in stopping the desecration of our oceans, but clearly our US Congress lacks the will, the gumption and the common sense to lead.
8. We’ve got a health care crisis of obesity, cancer and heart disease in this country.  What do we do?  We spend $6 trillion on 19-year wars.  We’ve got an obesity-disease epidemic where 7 out of 10 Americans suffer from horrible weight problems.  Has Congress tackled it, or childhood obesity?  No, they fund wars.
9. We’ve got a racial divide in this country that grows more conflicted by the day, but Congress keeps pumping over 1.5 million immigrants into this country annually that arrive from 196 different countries with 196 different cultures, religions, languages and world views.  Congress refuses to rescind the 1965 Immigration Reform Act that is killing our country in 2020 and beyond.  Not only do we face another 110 million more people by 2050, but we face horrific cultural divides, linguistic divides and, the daddy of them all will be the “religious abyss” caused by importing violent religions into our society.  One look at Canada and Europe gives you a nasty look into our future.  One philosopher said, “The two great dividers are: religion and language.”
10. In the end, we’re all going to pay for the folly and the corruption of the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate, a total of 535 men and women who don’t serve us or our Constitution.

The majority of them need to be impeached because they betray us daily with their unfaithful disservice to our country.  My own two senators and all my House member in Colorado should be impeached because they have done NOTHING in their long terms in Congress.  I am willing to bet that your two senators and House member would qualify for impeachment as to the top nine points made in this commentary.

God save us from our leaders!  As Mark Twain said, “Suppose you were an idiot, and suppose you were a member of Congress…ah, but I repeat myself.”

If you want to feel the “heartbeat” of this nation, either write a bi-weekly column on a major news service website, and/or, interview on national radio stations.  When you stick your nose out into the public sector, you receive praise and/or contempt no matter your honesty or integrity.  Some people want to chop you to pieces.  They call you names, degrade your family tree and would lynch you if given the chance.

My bi-weekly columns run on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Yelp and many others.  One guy by the name of Robert calls me every name in the book.  He harangues my columns and curses me with every sentence.  One guy from Mexico, “Comandante Pedro” promises to be easy on me when his friends take over California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas.  He will spare my life if I apologize for defending America.

Over the past 20 years, I’ve interviewed on George Noory, Jeff Rense, Chuck Wilder, Mark Snider, Jeff Crouere, Kevin Burns, Ernest Hancock, Don Jefferies, Deanne Spagnola,  Zeb Bell,  Richard Carpenter, Bill Handel, Peter Boyle and dozens of national radio talk show hosts from New York to Los Angeles.  I interview once on NBC with Adam Schragger as to what America could expect if we add the projected 140 million more legal immigrants.  THAT interview rocked the audiences that saw it.  I hoped all Americans could see it, but NBC killed any further discussion.

In fact, ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN and even FOX won’t touch the subject of legal immigration overrunning America with another 140 million people.  In Mark Twain’s time, he called it “Silent Assertion” or the “Big Lie.”   And that lie has held solid for the last 50 years.  Even former Senator Teddy Kennedy’s “big lie” continues to manifest in fracturing this country. But the big corporations won’t allow anyone to give a dose of “facts” to the American public.  I’ve attempted to interview on 60 Minutes, JNPR, PBS, Meet the Press and Face the Nation—with the facts of what another 140 million people will do to this country.  Response: “Sorry, we can’t interview you.”

All the while, the immigrants pour into this country as if Hoover Dam broke wide open.  Over 4 million last year entered the USA either legally or illegally, and their birth rates.

And, amazingly, 500 mayors and city councils across America legalized border jumpers with total immunity in their “Sanctuary Cities.”  It’s almost beyond criminal that our own elected leaders in 500 cities chose to violate their oaths of office and the U.S. Constitution.  I can share with you that none of what they are doing will end up well for Americans.  If you read my last column on the book, BLIP by Christ Clugston, you understand that we cannot sustain the projected 440 million population by 2050.  We’re guaranteed to collapse from lack of metal-mineral resources.

But each week, writers from across the country email me:  “I only wish your articles were on front pages of New York Times , Washington Post and WSJ.”

This email should jolt you by a global airline pilot based in south Florida,  “Yesterday I needed some items and went to Costco in Pembroke Pines.  Sunday shoppers and crowded.  The sobering reality of the situation hit me like a ton of bricks.   Twenty years ago, I moved North from Miami to southwest Broward to escape the crime,  Latin, Haitian and Jamaican cultures that had overrun Miami.  Out of hundreds of shoppers I only saw one other American.  I passed her a couple times and we looked at each other making eye contact.  I could see it in her face.  The crowd in Costco went far beyond the typical Miami types.  Yes, it is was far more diverse with burkas on the women, Orientals, ethnic Africans with many children, Indian and islanders.  No whites.  I heard at least 10 languages and very little English spoken.

“Southeast Florida is lost.  None of these people are here to adopt our way of life.  At check-out, I was pulling out my money to pay and just about all in the other lines are paying with government plastic.   Fifty percent of my income is taken at threat of a gun and redistributed to these people.  Then the Communists in Congress tell me that there will be means testing for Social Security after they have given all the trust to these people who have never contributed to anything.   All of these refugees, evacuees, economic migrants and malcontents have their extended relatives hooked up on SSI with checks being sent all over the world to elders that have never even been in the country.

“All of this is by design and intentional.  At the top is the Rothschild’s City of London debt/slave East/India Co banking Cartel.   Wealth extraction has reached a climax as the .001% want it all.  USA is still the honey pot and the vermin and insects will keep coming because it is still better than the sewers, they have all come from.  With the dollar constantly being stomped on by the FED, Americans have seen a constant increase to maintain their American Standard and now we are seeing cities fail as the working wages can no longer support the standard.  This trend will continue and what is left will continue to be shared by all the newcomers.

“As an Airline Pilot, formerly TWA and now with the biggest carrier, my frame of reference goes back more than 30 years.  All the cities globally I layover have all suffered dramatic drops in living standards as the population explodes unabated.  London, Paris, Istanbul, Rome, Buenos Aries, Caracas, San Francisco, LA, Chicago and Miami to name a few.  It is no longer safe for a White American in any of these places.  I seldom leave the hotel any more as crews are frequently targeted.”

Do you think America and Americans will survive the next 140 million immigrants? Do you think America will remain viable, sustainable or intact as a culture, language and a quality of life country? Me? On the radio shows, I tell it like it is…I think our country is doomed if we continue importing immigrants until they outnumber us.

I hope “Comandante Pedro” goes easy on me when Mexico takes over the four border states.

America supports 330 million people who eat food, drive cars, consume everything in sight, and utilize over 80 different minerals and metals that make our civilization work. Those non-renewable natural resources allow us our extraordinarily mechanized, chemicalized and advanced society—as well as our extraordinary standard of living.

Today, 1.4 billion Chinese, 1.25 billion Indians and all total, 7.6 billion humans scour this planet for—ever decreasing amounts of non-renewable natural resources under the crust of this planet.  Worse, within 30 years, 2.4 billion more humans will be added, or a total of 10 billion humans expect to scrounge this planet for any resources remaining to keep the engines of commerce operating.

In 2020, this planet holds 7.6 billion people who eat food, use water, burn fuels to keep warm, and essentially waste finite resources on a fixed planet.  Humans add another 83 million, net gain, annually.  Soberingly, the more people we add, the faster we exhaust those resources.

While everyone screams about “Catastrophic Climate Destabilization”, few understand the “Exponential Growth Factor” that threatens our very existence as a viable species on this planet.  Fewer still realize that “The Age of Oil” that makes our societies operate—will reach exhaustion just past mid-century.

“What we do to enable our existence as an industrialized society simultaneously undermines our existence,” said Christopher Clugston, author of the blockbuster book, Blip.  “Our persistent and ever-increasing extraction and utilization of non-renewable natural resources—the finite and non-replenishing fossil fuels, metals and nonmetallic minerals that enable our industrial existence—is causing increasingly pervasive global NNR scarcity, which is causing faltering global human prosperity, which is causing increasing global political instability, economic fragility and societal unrest.”

In other words, “This scenario will intensify during the coming decades and culminate in humanity’s permanent global societal collapse, almost certainly by 2050.”  Give or take a few years!

In the past three weeks, I read Clugston’s book. He articulates humanity’s ever-increasing usage of resources that can never be duplicated within the context of “exponential human growth.”  What is exponential growth?  It’s the same as a cancer cell.  It multiplies until it kills its host.  Once NNR’s suffer exhausting, American society or any industrialized society cannot continue operating. Why? Because they lack the energy, metals, minerals and resources to continue.

It’s like a man who walks into the desert with two gallons of water, but given enough time in the desert, he runs out of water, however he’s 100 miles from the nearest well. He sets out toward the well.  The closer he walks to the well, the faster his own supply of water runs out.  When he arrives at the well, he’s out of water, but he finds the well has run dry, too.  He’s out of luck.

It’s the classic Faustian Bargain, whereby he started out with ample water, so he wasted it, but he ends up with Hobson’s Choice.

America, Canada and Europe may be riding high in 2020, but in 30 short years, Hobson’s Choice cannot be avoided.

Clugston said, “Our impending collapse will result from our irreparably and irreversibly impaired global natural environment—specifically, from Earth’s extensively depleted and/or decimated finite and non-replenishing, non-renewable natural resources—a circumstance that cannot be remedied.”

Please note: no amount of “technology” will save us.

Restoration of our irreversibly depleted and irreparably impaired global natural environment will be physically impossible, as will restoration of human industrialism.

The bigger our cities around the globe, the faster and harder they will collapse as to water, energy, food and resources.

Clugston said, “While it is possible that some local and natural environments will remain favorable to support subsistence level agrarian societies comparable to those that existed prior to the inception of industrialism, the extraordinarily favorable, NNR-rich, global natural environment that enabled our 300 year industrial “blip” will be gone forever.”

After reading Clugston’s book, I am sobered as to the future of every single person living in Canada, America and Europe—and any big city country with millions of people to feed.  Essentially, Clugston researched his book with the brilliance of an Einstein in the realm of resources.

If we fail to change course in this decade, we cast our fate to an inexorably bleak future. Along the way, we face more conflict over resources with China, India, Mexico, South America and across the planet.

Can we somehow mitigate our impending fate?  Can we minimize the results?  Can we give future generations a chance?

As a lay person in this arena, I propose a few solutions:

1. We need a national-international discussion-debate on human population and how to stabilize and gracefully decline it through birth control to live within the carrying capacity of this finite planet.  www.skil.org
2. We MUST, and I mean, we MUST move toward alternative natural energies that don’t pollute and are renewable.  We should engage every scientist to find solutions before we’re like that man wandering in the desert in search of water.
3. We MUST stop trashing our oceans with chemicals and plastics.  We must force Monsanto-Bayer and Dow Chemical companies to quit screwing with our Natural World.  Stop all poison productions. We must engage an international 50 cent deposit law on every piece of plastic—to ensure its return for recycling.
4. We must define carrying capacity in every country and move toward sustainable societies.
5. We must engage world leaders, environmentalists, biologists, population specialists, climate experts, ocean experts and, most of all, religious leaders to educate their followers as to the negative impacts of humans on this planet.
6. What solutions might you offer to this predicament?

Finally, do you think humans will try to save themselves?  Will we make any effort to change course?   As for me having observed humanity around the world for the past 50 years, my bet?  We will continue the Faustian Bargain with a grand finale of Hobson’s Choice.  Some call it the “Darwinian Solution”, but it’s coming.

I don’t about you, but I am sick of Nancy Pelosi and every democrat who voted for impeachment.  I’m sick of the charade going on in Washington DC by a bunch of shallow, egomaniacs and career, corrupt, criminal politicians.

Adam Schiff lacks a meaning life, and a purposeful life—so he decided to take it out on the American people. Rep. Sadler, ditto. Two goofballs that don’t realize how insanely out of out of touch they are with the American people.  One should see a shrink and the other should sign up with Jenny Craig.

Over a simple phone call to the president of the Ukraine?  Give me a break!  Talk about reaching for a straw dog.

Again, I repeat Mark Twain, “ Suppose you were and idiot and suppose you were a member of Congress…ah, but I repeat myself.”

Nothing has changed in over 100 years. We’re being led by idiots that we pay $174,000.00 annually, and to think we allow the leader of the idiots, Pelosi, Alexandria-Ocasio-Cortez and Maxine Waters to continue their shallow-as-plastic-wrap-on-unused-vegetables—-lives in the halls of Congress.

Every problem in our country stems from: they’ve not accomplished anything according to our Constitution during their ‘forever careers’ in Congress.  Schumer has been in the Senate since he wore diapers.  Pelosi has been there since she wore a training bra as a teen. Maxine Waters, and God help me, couldn’t pass a 6^th grade math test and couldn’t read the Constitution because my bet is: she’s functionally illiterate.   They and the rest of them that have served over 10 years prove themselves fossils. Rusted out, rotted out and completely useless for the American people.

Hearing Nancy Pelosi talk about the Constitution and the Founding Fathers is like hearing the devil quote the Bible.  She makes me sick to my stomach. Worse, the inane people of her California district keep voting her into office.  She’s about as useless and meaningless as a mosquito trying to fly to the moon.

They’ve hounded the president for three years. First with a two-year scam Mueller Report that turned up empty.  They knew that within six months.  It wasted millions of taxpayer dollars.  Dumbest thing I’ve seen since Nixon’s trial.  Then, failing at that scam, they brought up a new scam for impeachment over a friggin’ phone call.  Imagine that all democrats voted for impeachment and not one, single republican voted for impeachment.

We’re talking a trial by partisanship, not justice, not due process, not reality based.  I’ve never seen so many pre-Madonna’s since the last time I taught at a Mensa convention.

To give some appreciation, I think Trump represents childish behavior, bombastic conduct and he’s egotistical beyond comprehension.  I personally would not accept a dinner invitation from him.  I like to sit down with regular, normal and average Americans—that make this country work.

Trump hasn’t stopped illegal immigration. He hasn’t stopped anchor babies. He’s hasn’t stopped “Diversity Visas” and he hasn’t stopped chain migration. He doesn’t understand that our country faces horrible overpopulation issues as Congress dumps over 110 million more legal immigrants on us within 30 years.  He’s gutting EPA that keeps some kind of law protection for our environment.  He hasn’t brought down the national debt, but added to it: $23 trillion.  He hasn’t gotten out of Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan.  He’s being controlled by the Military Industrial Complex and the Federal Reserve bankers.  He’s wasting lives of our finest and money out of our pockets.

He hasn’t stopped Muslim chain migration that will prove the greatest catastrophe in the history of our country.  Ultimately, Muslims will conquer our country at the going rate of immigration and their vengeance against “The Great Satan”.  We’re facing one hell of a nasty future as Muslims will clash with Americans for dominance.  And, because Americans are so fat, so lazy, so apathetic—I’m betting, in time, Muslim will take over city after city in our country—and they will install Sharia Law. They already have in Detroit, Minneapolis, Miami, New York City, and many more cities where they created parallel Islamic societies.

We’ve already got multiple wives, honor killings at 25 per year and over 500,000 documented female genital mutilation cases in our country by Muslim immigrants. They’re dragging our country back into the 6^th century.

At the same time, Hillary and Bill Clinton back in the White House would have proved the greatest boondoggle in American history.

May the U.S. Senate get this stupid impeachment mockery of the Constitution finished and acquit Trump, and then, all those “asses” in the House and in the criminals in the Senate—get back to serving we, the people.  Gees, I’m pissed!

Again, I repeat Mark Twain, “ Suppose you were and idiot and suppose you were a member of Congress…ah, but I repeat myself.”

Have you ever seen a country devolving, degrading and/or disintegrating right in front of your own eyes?  One took at Canada would shock most Americans to see their major cities like Vancouver being taken over by the Chinese immigrants, and Toronto and Montreal no longer Canadian—but something ugly and foreign.  One look at all of Europe shows their leaders bending over backwards to destroy their cultures, languages and quality of life—-all by the hand of importing third world refugees by the millions.

Ironically those same refuges degrade, devolve and desecrate everything European.  If you bring them out of the sh*tholes of Africa and the Middle East, they will, and they ARE destroying Europe.  Read, The Strange Death of Europe by Douglas Murray.  It not only sickens you; it connects the dots on how it’s being done to America and Canada by their-our own leaders.

Well, look around America as to the same path, same systematic immigration patterns being forced upon America.  If the current legal, illegal and refugee numbers remain for another 30 years—we don’t stand a chance of surviving as a viable civilization.  We won’t survive it as to the sheer numbers projected at 110 million more added people, net gain, to our country.  We won’t survive as to water shortages, energy exhaustion and depleted resources.  We won’t survive as to quality of life and/or standard of living.  If you think we will, or any member of Congress thinks we will survive, you and they are out of your cotton-picking minds.

I just read the book, Blip by Christopher Clugston, one of the most brilliant minds in America as to resources.  He point-blank shows you exactly how America will completely collapse by 2050 on our current course because we won’t possess the resources to sustain our bloviated population at 440 million people.

What more must be done in 2020 to save us from our fate?

Ninth,  we need to track down all visa overstays and deport them, and any members of their families.  We’ve got thousands of Nigerians, Ethiopians, Sudanese, Middle Easterners, Chinese, Indians, Brazilians and SO many more illegally violating our country.  Enforce US Code I, Section 1324 to get rid of them.

Tenth, pass Term Limits for all of Congress.  Maximum of 10 year’s service and mandatory retirement, and go back to making a living on your own not taxpayers backs.  We cannot afford to continue the incredible corruption and criminality of our Congressional leaders such as Nancy Pelosi, Charles Schumer, Maxine Waters, Hank Johnson, John Lewis, Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, Diane Feinstein and the list runs long on both sides of the aisle.  We must mandate a Convention of the States by Article 5 of the Constitution: Term Limits, Balanced Budget and Mandatory Border Security.

Eleventh, no amnesty for the estimated 23 to 25 million illegal aliens.  No DACA. Engage our laws to take away their ability as to jobs, housing and transportation. We don’t have to deport them as they will wind up leaving on their own dime when they cannot continue to use our jobs, welfare and schools for their illegal purposes.

Twelfth, NO MORE refugees!  Stop all immigration. We cannot save the world, but we can and are destroying our country, culture, language and way of life.  Those countries add 83 million, net gain, new babies annually, therefore nothing we can do will save them, but continued immigration will destroy us.

Thirteen, outlaw and prosecute over 500 U.S. sanctuary city mayors and city councils for breaking our laws as to illegal aliens being allowed to flourish and thrive illegally in those cities. It’s wrong, it’s illegal, and it’s against everything for which our U.S. Constitution mandates for a country of laws.

Fourteen,  student visas must be slashed by 99 percent.  We don’t need to educate all those foreign students and then, have them remain in our country.  Let’s enjoy American cities with Americans, not the rest of the world taking up residence in our cities.

Fifteen, trust-bust Monsanto, Bayer and Dow Chemical for poisoning our entire food chain and promoting GMO’s that poison our bodies. Break their financial strangle-hold on our corrupt Congress.

Sixteen, mandate that the United States vacates the United Nations.  It’s useless, it’s powerless, it’s done nothing for world peace and we, the American taxpayers refuse to continue funding that corrupt body of  vacant egotists from 196 countries around the world.

Sixteen and a half, we must take all 700 bases out of 80 countries and bring them back home. We don’t need to rule the world with our military and bases. We have enough problems to solve back here.

(One point: in the first part of my “Quotes by our Leaders” column last week, January 9, 2020, I mistakenly said that Sam Rayburn gave the speech accusing Teddy Kennedy of having an affair on his yacht.  The correct person who made the statement: Howell Heflin of Alabama. I hope you all got a chuckle out of that column. More to come!)

Seventeen, this past weekend, Sandi and I watched an incredible movie on what’s happening to America as to free speech.  Adam Corolla, a liberal with no college degree, and Dennis Prager, a conservative with a college degree—and both radio talk jocks with over two billion I-Pod downloads last year, made a documentary on “No Safe Spaces”.  In it, they showed how college kids are shutting down free speech and they shout down and commit horrific violence for anyone with opposing views.

That’s the beginning of fascism, dictatorships and authoritarian government.  The single most important amendment in our Constitution is the right to free speech. It may be messy, and some may not like it when it doesn’t go their way, but we MUST allow everyone to express their minds in America.  They must be able to speak their minds on radio, print, TV and any other medium.

In the end, hopefully, reason prevails.  If not, we become another Communist China or Saudi Arabia or any other dictatorial construct.  Prager and Corolla point it out that we must guard, treasure and fight for free speech.  I stand with both men and every woman who stands for free speech in America.

Again, Mark Twain said, “Suppose you were an idiot, and suppose you were a member of Congress…ah, but I repeat myself.”  That’s the reason for Term Limits in Congress!

Our national leaders tell us the truth, nothing but the truth, so help them God!  As you look around America, you see U.S. Senators pontificating about our country—the one they serve with such integrity for decades of their careers in Congress.  Of course, they prove themselves honorable and proper.  U.S. House of Representatives members speak to the people with integrity and honor.

Those assumptions, of course, illustrate our stupidities for re-electing them decade after decade to lead our country.  Notice many of them chalked up over 30 years in Washington DC.  Notice, too, where they have flushed our country—down the toilet faster than a bullet train flies through a tunnel.

In 2008, Barack Obama said, “I have campaigned in all 57 states.”  Finally admitting his Muslim faith “after” entering the White House as a “Christian”, he referred to the 57 Islamic states.  Interestingly enough, he spent millions then and millions today to keep his life history, education and actual birth records sealed away from the American People.  When historians finally expose him, wow, what a story for us to gag upon.

House Majority leader Nancy Pelosi, 78 years old with onset dementia said in 2006, “You don’t need God anymore; you have us Democrats.”  Thanks, Nancy, for your astute understanding of our religious preferences in America as you work for wide-open borders for terrorists, murderers and drug cartels from Mexico.  Where do you cash your U.S. salary check? In Banco de Mexico?

House member Sheila Jackson, not one of the brightest bulbs in the array, said in 2016, “Homicide is the leading cause of murder.”  Thanks, Sheila, for your grippingly astute observation.

Another House member, Hank Johnson from Georgia sat in a House committee meeting and told the members that if too many people were placed on a base in Guam that the island would tip over and capsize into the oceans. (It’s on video tape April 1, 2012 in the House of Representatives)  The question might be asked, “Did you pass 6^th grade geography or are you just plain too stupid to learn anything?”

The comical Joe Biden, always second fiddle, in 2015 said, “No ordinary American cares about Constitutional rights.”    I’m an ordinary American and I’ve read the Bill of Rights, Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.  I care about every single paragraph of those documents because they allow me to expose a phony SOB that you’ve been in public office for 40 years.

And Senator Liz Warren said, “Having an abortion is no different than having one’s tonsils removed.”  Let’s see—a human baby being killed by its mother versus having inflamed tonsils taken out to save your life…oh, that’s rich Liz.  And you want to be president?

And the latest joke in DC, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez who has never read any founding document for our nation, said in 2018, “Owning guns is not a right. If it were a right, it would be in the Constitution.”  The question I ask, “How did someone as stupid as a third-rate bartender become a member of Congress?”  There should be a minimum IQ of at least 100 to serve.  How far below that mark do you think she hits?

And, in 1998, Hillary Clinton said of her sexual predator husband Bill Clinton, who molested over 42 women who charged him with rape or molestation, Hillary said, “Bill is the greatest husband and father I know. No one is more faithful, true and honest than him.”  Of course, we all know that Web Hubbell is Chelsea’s biological father because she looks exactly like him.  Hillary, you’re not so honest with any of us.

And the Mother Superior of stupid herself, Nancy Pelosi, in March 2010, said, “We have to pass Obama’s Healthcare Bill to see what’s in it.”  As one doctor said, “That is also the perfective definition of a stool sample.”

Same Rayburn, Speaker of the House, once noted after Senator Teddy Kennedy was caught on camera having sex on the deck of his yacht with one of his aides, “Ah see that the good Senatuh from the great State of Massutwoshits has changed his position on off-shore drilling.”

And, one of the most brilliantly illiterate House Members, largemouth bass Maxine Waters, in 2017, said, “My fear be that if North Korea nukes us, well, then, dat Trump, he gonna’ get us into a war, yup.”  When the history books write her name down, they will note that there wasn’t an IQ test yet created that could measure her tiny brain.

Finally, and it troubles me to pick on Nancy Pelosi, but she said in 2019, “You need to vote for the Democrats, otherwise the undocumented (illegal) aliens will lose their rights.”  Gosh, Nancy, thanks for standing up for our citizens and our citizenhip rights fought for by every soldier since Valley Forge.  You’re a real gem of a gal, lady.

As my mentor Mark Twain said, “Suppose you were an idiot and suppose you were a member of Congress…ah, but I repeat myself.”

God help us through 2020 with that group of…ah but I repeat myself… in Washington DC.

Like a brand-spanking shiny new dime, 2020 offers America’s leaders a chance to correct a lot of wrongs against her citizens. Let’s review the most important items our U.S. Congress and this president need to solve.

First of all, we need to withdraw ALL our troops and bases out of Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and all other places in Africa and the Middle East. They don’t want us there. Iraq passed a resolution for us to vacate their country. We’ve wasted tens of thousands of our young men’s and women’s lives in the past 19 years. We’ve killed countless thousands of people in their own countries. We’ve wasted $6 trillion that could have been spent in America for Americans.  Since 2001, we accomplished absolutely nothing to maintain our own safety or theirs.

Whether it’s the Taliban or insurgents or Al Qaeda—they are a bunch of mostly drug-addicted goat herders or sand rats in their own countries.  Just leave them alone, let them be and get the hell out of their regions.  The U.S. Military Industrial Complex created this entire war-hoax funded by the American taxpayers’ wallet.

Let all those crazy, violence-prone religious nut-bags and their violent cultures have at it in their own countries. Let them figure it out or not. Just pay them for their oil and let them kill each other or create peace as they understand it.  Not one more U.S. soldier needs to lose her or her life, or limbs in that most insane part of the world.

Second, stop all immigration into the USA for 20 years.  We need to get our house in order before we add the projected 30 million more immigrants by 2030.  We need to stop importing incompatible and violent religions that carry no respect for women’s rights, animal rights, free choice of dress, free choice of religion and freedom to choose one’s spouse.  We all know that religion and what it does to degrade anyone it touches.

We do not need any more immigrants coming from countries that add 83 million more people, net gain, annually.  We’re being inundated by their cultures, their languages, their religions and their world views.  They aren’t Americans and they don’t want to be Americans.  They’re here for the free ride. Or, to change us to be like them.  Help them in their own countries, because, in the end, if they won’t practice birth control, no amount of immigration will save them as they add three billion more of themselves in the next 30 years.  It’s absolutely insane to let them turn our country into what they created and fled in their countries.

Stop all illegal immigration by enforcing existing laws: US Code 8, Section 1324–it’s illegal to employ, transport or house anyone illegally in our country. Fine of $2,000 per illegal and up to 5 years in jail.  Arrest employers, prosecute and jail them.  Take all benefits such as schooling, medical care, food stamps and housing away from illegal aliens and their children.  Once they have no standing or means to stay in this country, they may leave on their own dime.

Along with their sobering overpopulation levels, we do not want to add the projected 140 million more people to our country in 30 years to reach 440 million people. It’s simply national suicide if we continue on this path.

Vote a bill onto the 14^th Amendment to stop the 300,000 women who birth their babies illegally on our soil annually and claim birthright citizenship.  It’s a travesty against our citizens to pay for those babies, their mothers and their education K-12.  We’re tired of it.

Third, we MUST create an educational system to educate our ghettos where 7 out of 10 children arrive without fathers.   Our elite educators need to create educational systems such as separate boys and girls schools, mandatory discipline protocols, highly paid teachers and nutritional care.

As robots become more dominate in the work force, we need to create jobs for low intellectual horsepower kids that may be redundant, yet pay a living wage.  One note: all smart phones must be checked at the door before kids come into the school building.

We must move students into vocational tech schools such as electrical, plumbing, woodshop, carpentry, cooking, mechanics, transportation and the like.

Fourth, we need a complete nutritional-exercise overhaul of food offerings in our food stores, fast food joints, our schools and our lives.  Let’s face it.  Seven out of ten Americans face being fat to grossly obese.  We need to mandate all the junk food places like Wendy’s, McDonald’s, Burger King, Pizza Hut, Little Caesar’s, White Castle and others to stop selling the crap food they sell to unknowing buyers.  And, mandate healthy, nutritional choices for all customers.  It starts in the schools where healthy meals must be offered and not the sugary, caffeinated, chemicalized junk they receive in the lunch lines across this country.

We need to offer exercise classes as a regular and normal part of every citizen’s daily routine.  Swimming pools with classes, bicycle riding classes, Zumba classes, yoga classes, weightlifting, track, tennis, racquetball and just about every athletic activity possible for our young citizens in the making.

Fifth, we must move farmers away from Monsanto-Bayer-Dow Chemical’s poisoning our foods with sprays on the tops of crops or injected into the ground where they grow, or those God-forsaken GMO foods that contaminate and poison the entire natural world—along with us when we eat those Frankenstein foods.  We need to mandate organic farming, organic foods and return to natural pest control with the correct combinations of flowers and crop rotations.

Sixth, stop all foreign aid to countries that do not like us, nor does that aid reach the poor people of their countries.  Foreign aid: taking money from the poor people of a rich nation and giving it to the rich people of a poor nation.  It does NOTHING to improve those people in those countries.

Seventh, we need to move away from fossil fuels and toward any and every alternative energy: wave, river, geothermal, wind, water and anything natural.

Eighth, we need to take our $23 trillion debt and start reducing it before it reduces us to complete economic meltdown.

Yes, we face dozens of other challenges.  Write me and let me know what other ideas I can submit into the public viewing.  frostyw@juno.com

Happy New Year 2020 and God help us to make through this year in one piece.

As 2019 slips into the rear-view mirror faster than a firefly flashes its tail-lights, 2020 rolls into view like a wildfire across Australia. Or, like a forest fire in California. This new year faces jam-ups like Los Angeles, Denver or New York’s gridlocked traffic. Yes, 2020 grows dirtier faster than the Brown Cloud arching over every major city in the USA.  Cancer chases and catches millions of Americans faster than a Tesla can re-charge its batteries.

What’s so amazing about 2020: Americans face multiple horrific challenges on many fronts.  We’ve got the killing fields of Chicago where folks kill each other daily in that city’s “gun free” zone.  We face racial violence growing in the ghettoes across this country.  We water systems going dry.  We continue killing people in Iraq and Afghanistan—with no end in sight.  We see our schools graduating teenagers with little ability to read, write or perform simple math.  An astounding 7 out of 10 African-American babies arrive out of wedlock to be brought up on welfare and single mothers.

Across our major cities, we saw 38 police officers meet their death at the hands of violent citizens executing them in 2019.  How many will die defending us this year?  In New York City, thug teens poured water on officers and taunted them with impunity.

Our country faces more problems than a bathtub full of worms.  And you know, it’s not going to get better in our big cities. It’s going to get worse, much worse.  We’re going to see racial tensions escalate into major violence. We’re going to see backlashes on Muslims as some of their jihadist buddies blow up a few places in the USA or kill a bunch of Americans.  We’re going to see drug addiction, suicides and opioid deaths skyrocket.  It’s in the cards.

We may be facing “civilizational despair.”  A debilitating sense or loss of our culture, our language, our laws and our connectedness to each other and our country.  It’s the end result of multiculturalism: and it’s moving across our land at breakneck speed.  We, the American people, don’t know who we are anymore because we’re no longer ourselves inside our own country.  You see it reflected in the nasty divisions in our U.S. Congress.  Two sides hate each other: democrats and republicans will not pull together for the common good.  And several House Members from Michigan and Minnesota would like to destroy our country: Somalian Ilhan Omar and Palestinian Rashida Tlaib.  Another from New York, Ms. Ocasio-Cortez follows their lead.  All three possess cotton-candy for brains.

But one of the most pressing items for 2020 stems from our entire planet facing horrific problems.  Last year, Time named Greta Thunberg “Person of the Year” for her stance on “Catastrophic Climate Destabilization.”  At 15, she’s outspoken for the children of her generation. At the same time, she’s suffered a boat-load of negative feedback from many quarters.

Whether you understand climate change or not, accept it or not—the human race faces some of the greatest consequences for our species in over 2,000 years.

She said, “We are at the beginning of a mass extinction of life on this planet, and all you can talk about is fairy tales of eternal economic growth…how dare you.”

She’s correct!  According to the 40-year study by Norman Myers of Oxford University, we lose 100 species every single day of the year to extinction in 2020.  The famed Harvard biologist Edward O. Wilson stated emphatically that, on our current course, “The human race will wipe out 1/3 of all animal species on this planet via encroachment or poisoning of their habitat by 2050.”

Because, at some point, as we destroy the “Web of Life” on this planet, we too, one day, will find ourselves heading into Mother Nature’s wood-chipper.

Greta Thunberg said, “I often talk to people who say, ‘No, we have to be hopeful and to inspire each other, and we can’t tell [people] too many negative things’ . . . But, no — we have to tell it like it is. Because if there are no positive things to tell, then what should we do, should we spread false hope? We can’t do that, we have to tell the truth.”

For example, 20 years ago, Oprah Winfrey exposed the “Great Pacific Garbage Patch” just off San Francisco at 60 million tons of plastic compacted between two gyers, about the size of Texas and 30 to 90 feet deep.  As a veteran 60 year scuba diver around the world, I’ve seen it.  It’s huge, it’s ugly, it’s growing, and it’s deadly to MILLIONS of marine and avian creatures in our oceans.  Today, because no world leader has moved to stop it, the “patch” grew to 100 million tons.  Today, fish eat the plastic, birds eat the plastic, the sun breaks it down so it’s in our food chain; so, we humans eat the plastic and our children.

And not one single leader in the world will put a simple 50 cent deposit-return law into the mix to create an economic incentive to return all plastics for proper reuse.  NOT ONE leader and NO ONE in the United States Congress!  We humans may be clever, but we are stupid beyond measure.

I’ve given you a couple of the problems facing America and all humans on this planet in 2020.  We created 70,000 chemicals that we inject into the air, water and land 24/7.  Anybody speaking up about that?  Of course, every person reading this commentary knows a friend with cancer or you face cancer yourself.  Why?  Because no one speaks up against Monsanto, Bayer or Dow Chemical Company.  Go see the move: Dark Waters, to show you how amoral those people prove themselves.

And, even with the “climate change” people, they refuse to connect the fact that the human race grows by 83 million people, net gain, annually—so, as we head toward adding 3 billion more of our selves—there’s no way in hell we could save ourselves as we exceed 10 billion people by 2050 on this fragile little planet out in the far reaches of the Milky Way.

Sobering point: I have tried to interview on 60 Minutes, NPR, Face the Nation, Meet the Press, CNN, FOX and over 100 radio stations to bring the facts for the past 20 years.  Result: they flee any discussion of human overpopulation in America.  Yet, we remain on course to add another 140 million people in 30 years!  It’s too late for India; and once that next 140 million people land on America, it will be too late for us.

As a civilization, we face horrific consequences as to our numbers, to our water, energy and resources.  We face tremendous consequences as to our quality of life and standard of living. Are we doing anything to make it a better future for our children?  Answer: Nope!  We prove ourselves as stupid as those people who let India reach 1.3 billion and China hit 1.4 billion.

We might survive 2020, but the sleddin’ going to get rougher, nastier and more than gritty in the coming decade.

And Greta Thunberg?  She’s got guts and we need to move on her activism with our own activism for our own children.

The past year saw the United States weather “Black Lives Matter”; “Antifa” riots; Muslim Sharia Law creeping up in city after city, La Raza competing more powerfully in the four states along the border with Mexico.  We saw 59,000 homeless in Los Angeles; 11,000 homeless in San Francisco; 10,000 homeless in Denver; and over 13,000,000 children living below the poverty line in America. Yet, we give billions of dollars in foreign aid to countries with no merit.

We faced and paid for our 18^th year fighting a “terrorist ghost enemy” in the Afghanistan and Iraq wars that wasted $6 trillion and thousands of our young men and women who died in combat or suicide.  At 22 suicides per day, and well, add them up over 18 years.  And yet, our Congress keeps sending them over there to die or get their brains and emotions scrambled enough to kill themselves. How many suffer daily from PTSD that destroys their lives after their military service?  Answer: hundreds of thousands of men and women.  (Source: www.WoundedWarriorProject.org)

We added another $1 trillion in national debt. We survived the Mueller Report, Impeachment, Climate Change, racial conflict just about every day in the news somewhere in America, Muslim terror attacks in America and Europe—and, well, pretty much the world races toward hell in a handbasket.

Ironically, with Muslims and their terroristic religion, our Congress keeps importing them into the USA as if tomorrow won’t get here.  Well, try to live in Minneapolis, Minnesota in the “Little Mogadishu” district of 125,000 Somalians with an average IQ of 68. If you’re white or Latino, you wouldn’t last a week in that multicultural hellhole.  Same with Lewiston, Maine and Detroit Michigan.  Or, Miami, Florida. Or, New York City where they now feature “Muslim Community Patrol” cop cars replicating New York City cop cars and carrying out their “Sharia Law Patrols” to enforce their terroristic religion.  Anybody understand how that’s going to work out in the long term?  Not one single Muslim that professes his faith in the Quran wants to become an American. Why? Because the Quran forbids any allegiance to anything but Sharia Law.  Talk about “no go zones” in America: we got them!

And to think we’ll import another 20 million of them within a few short years!  Anyone think that’s going to turn out well?  Try House Member Ilhan Omar’s Minneapolis district with the most Somalians returning to Africa to wage Jihad.  Or, how about the $100 million Somalians scammed off the American taxpayer in 2019 with fraudulent EBT card theft.

While our 535 U.S. Congressional weasels twiddle their thumbs in Washington DC, another 1.1 million illegal aliens jumped our borders.  Our trade deficit with China exceeds $1.5 trillion.  We pay around $319,000,000,000.00 (billion) of our tax dollars for illegal immigration, their kids’ education and food, and medical care. (Source: www.Balance.org)

Ah, and another 300,000 pregnant mothers from other countries, birthed their children within US borders to ensure their “anchor baby” U.S. birthright citizenship. What did your U.S. Senator and House Member do for the last 30 years concerning that ongoing taxpayer nightmare?  Answer: NOTHING!

How about those “Golden Ticket” Diversity Visas given out to 50,000 totally unskilled, inept, uneducated, totally illiterate foreigners for simply hitting the lottery jackpot to come to America—where you get to support them for the rest of their lives.

Yet, those same 535 Congressional critters did nothing to stop the invasion of our country.  They engaged ZERO solutions to reconstruct our infrastructure.  They voted to keep funding those two insane and worthless wars, along with Syria.  For the love of God and country, why does Congress keep us in that insane Islamic region filled with people out of the 6^th century who refuse to move into the 21^st century?  Why pretend that we’re stopping Muslim terror when we import them daily via immigration?  This quote by a Muslim in America should give every American reason to stop all Muslim immigration:

“Islam isn’t in America to be equal to any faith, but to become dominant. The Qur’an should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on Earth.” Omar Ahmed, director of Council on American Islamic Relations.

Yes, the Military Industrial Complex has Congress by the gonads, I mean, is there any other way to put it?  Does another day fighting in Africa and the Middle East make sense?  After 18 years of not making any sense?  Does another $6 trillion wasted in warfare make sense?  When do we stop giving up our young men in those useless wars?

All the while in 2019, we just added 1 million legal immigrants from 196 different countries with 196 different world views, languages, cultures and religions.  We added another 1.1 million border jumpers, according to the U.S. Border Patrol, and they’re here to stay. The Yale Report stated that we house 23 to 25 million illegal aliens, but Congress tells you it’s a pultry 11 million.  Congress fails to do anything to stop the invasion.

And your Congressional Critters keep helping them into our country. The majority of senators and House members fail their sworn oath and our Constitution, daily and all year long.  My two Senators, Cory Gardner (R-CO) and Michael Bennet (D-CO) haven’t done a damned thing to stop the invasion in 10 years each in Congress.  Both prove themselves totally, completely, horrifically useless!

Congress paid more attention to quibbling and squabbling than serving the American people.  The majority of them wasted our money and our minds with their inane bickering and arguing. If not for House member Jim Jordan and former House member Trey Gowdy, and a few others like Tom Cotton of Arkansas—I’m not sure I think there is a rational person in Washington DC.

The youth of this country sprayed water on cops and openly defied our laws with impunity.  While the young demonstrated against “Climate Change”, none of them connected the FACT that human overpopulation constitutes the MAIN driver of carbon footprint.  While an old man like Bernie Sanders advocates for “Socialism”, which takes money from workers to give to non-workers—our national debt jumped to $23 trillion.  How long before our entire system collapses?

How long can we sustain our nation when our young people hate our country?  How much longer can we survive multiculturalism when it’s tearing our guts out while it destroys our culture?  Do you think a Muslim has anything in common with an American?  Does that immigrant from Somalia, Sudan, Congo or South Africa carry any affinity to our Constitution or culture?

I could write another two dozen consequences to 2019, but you get the picture.

ON TO 2020 AND THE CHALLENGES OF THE NEW YEAR

Top specialists around the United States question whether or not we will make it as a viable civilization by 2050.

If the same kinds of events continue into 2020, especially with the addition of another imported three million foreigners, I wonder if we will survive sociologically?  Linguistically?  Culturally?  How can we hold in the middle when 45 million foreign born people who don’t think on the same page as Americans? What happens when we import another 100 million foreign born?  How can we survive a 6^th century religion that continues ‘honor killings’ and female genital mutilation in our own country?   How can we survive competing languages that lack any connection or world-view to English-speaking Americans?

How will we survive the projected 110 million more people added to the USA within 30 years by 2050?  Anybody want to take a guess?

“Where liberals see as an ever-more-splendid diversity of colors, creeds, ethnicities, ideologies, beliefs and lifestyles, thinking Americans see the disintegration of a country, a nation, a people, and its replacement with a Tower of Babel. Visions in conflict that democracy cannot reconcile.”

In 2020, I see more racial, religious and cultural conflict among competing tribes that we imported to our own demise and our own disastrous future.

It seemed like a minute ago, December 1st, I erected our Christmas tree, decorated it with bulbs and strung lights across our front door with a wreath to welcome all our friends.

The night before Christmas, our two boys visited with their girlfriends for dinner and gift sharing.  We sat by the fireplace as the tree sparkled in the corner.  We snapped pictures, talked about the year and, in an instant, they left our house as they headed toward their own lives.

On the radio, the old crooners like Dean Martin, Elvis Presley, Big Crosby and Andy Williams sang to us from 50 years ago. Doris Day and Reba McIntyre sang to us.  Ironically, the newest singers on the scene, the Pentatonix, an acapella group led by Scott Hoying (the son of one of my best friends of 35 years, Rick Hoying), became the top selling Christmas album for the past three years.

One of the things that bothers me about Christmas: it’s no longer celebrated as the birth of Christ, but in fact, a consumer bonanza that finds people fighting over endless junk in stores to bring home to their kids and spouses who already own everything they need or want.  It’s an orgy of consumption.  Instead of Christmas, we need to call it, “Inane Consumption of Junk Season.”  Most of the toys will reach the junk toybox by the end of the day.

As I sit here on Christmas day, I feel sad about what’s happened to Christmas in America.  I feel sad at the change our national ethos.  It’s devolving into a two-headed political dragon with no interest in solving our national problems. I really feel sad that the anger against our nation swells up in the minds our own citizens, especially our younger generations.  They refute our Constitution, economy and flag.

I see paradox and irony every day in the news with war, racial conflict,  ethnic conflict and religious conflict.   It’s almost too depressing to watch the national-international news every night with Nora at CBS, David at ABC or Lester at NBC.  You would think that the horrible things they report about could and would be solved by our national leaders.  But instead, our national leaders quibble, lie and obfuscate everything in their favor as they accomplish virtually nothing.  They refuse to solve the problems facing our nation, year after year, after year.

At the same time, I sit around our fireplace missing my own mother and father.  Their memories remain fresh in my mind with their pictures in my office where I work daily.   I greet them, thank them and appreciate them.  I’m also sad that my wife Sandi has lost her mom and dad. I miss their energy in the world.  I miss my youngest brother who died at 50 of a heart attack, and my third brother of a stroke at 55.

As my life path carried me around the world, I miss some of the friends that have come and gone out of my orbit.  One in particular, Gary, wow, the adventures we shared.  And Paul, the sports we played.  And one old girlfriend of 29 years, Pam, gone out of my life.  Only memories remain.

Essentially, Christmas causes huge expectation, and in many ways, magnifies our spiritual, emotional and mental state of mind.  As it approaches, we gather with friends and family to celebrate the “rebirth” of our lives with the metaphor of that Christ-child.  Just about every culture celebrates in different ways—this “thing” called living.

Some 4,000 religions on Earth via its 7.6 billion human beings, try to figure out the meaning of life.  Hope, faith, belief!  All of them seem to fit every ethnic group’s need for comfort, meaning and validation.

While I attend church every Sunday, I find my greatest comfort in applying what I learned in a pew-seat by engaging Nature, her creatures, her trees, her rivers, her flowers, her lakes and her oceans.  I worship her blue skies, her gray skies and her rainy or snowy skies.  I carry tremendous reverence for her seasons, her flowers and her mountains.  Also, her deserts!

In this grand scheme of life, I feel the “awe and wonder” of living.  We’re here for a very short time of 70 to 80 years, and, as always, I cherish each moment, each season and every breath.  Because I will not ever come this way again, at least not in this frail bag of bones and skin.

As the New Year approaches, I gather my will to live with joy, with gusto, with enthusiasm and with heart.  I hope you will, too.

As the Starship Enterprise Captain Jean Luc Picard said, “Someone once told me that “time” was a predator that stalks us all our lives.  I rather believe that time is a companion who goes with us on the journey and reminds us to cherish every moment, because it will never come again. What we leave behind is not as important as how we’ve lived.”  The video of the quote.

“Bicycling unites physical harmony coupled with emotional bliss to create a sense of spiritual perfection that combines your body, mind and soul into a single moving entity. You, the cyclist, power your steel steed with two spoked metal rims wrapped in rubber tires toward the distant horizon. That far off place where the sky meets the earth, holds promise on multiple levels.  Bicycling allows a person to mesh with the sun, sky and road as if nothing else mattered in the world.  At the perfect speed, you flow unerringly toward your destiny.  In fact, all your worries, cares and troubles vanish in the rear-view mirror while you bicycle along the highways of the world: you pedal as one with the universe.” ~ Frosty Wooldridge, on tour through the hills of Tuscany, Italy

The mystique of bicycle travel fascinates most people.  Why would anyone “endure” the pains of providing their own locomotion via pedaling rather than the comfort and speed of a car, boat, plane or train?  The answer lies in the antiquity of “pedaling bliss.”  It thrives in the meshing of your energy with the energy of the universe. It rushes into the secret corners of your mind to explore the world on your own terms.  Too much comfort leads to tedium or the indolence of life. Once you swing your leg over the saddle of a bicycle, a whole new mental, physical and spiritual dimension opens to every cell in your body.  You “fly” at the “perfect speed” with a comet’s tail of memories following you into eternity.

On a recent bicycle tour through the enchanting history of Europe, my friend Gary and I sweated our way into the Italian Alps.  We pushed our bikes around hairpin curves, through boreal forests and across mountain ramparts.  At Splugen Pass, we coasted 37 kilometers along a winding, violently descending mountain road that carried us through dark tunnels that led into bright sunshine and flowery Italian meadows.

Ancient Roman ruins dotted the landscape.  At lower elevations, 1,000-year-old stone homes housed farmers who worked the land.  At the bottom of the Alps, we entered Lago Como (Lake Region) for a ride south into the enchanting land known as Tuscany.  If you watched the movie “Under the Tuscan Sun” with Diane Lane, you felt the romance of that vineyard-filled region of fine wines and superb dining.

When you travel through Italy, you travel back in time to walled-cities that protected their inhabitants from the constant charges of competing armies from other towns.  Whether you travel through Sienna, Cali-val- Delsa, Florence, Naples or Rome—all those cities once featured or still maintain thickly layered brick ramparts surrounding their main living and commerce areas.  And always, each walled-city features an ancient, marble church with tapestries, paintings, stained glass windows and stunning architecture.

One night, we pedaled through a hilly region of Tuscany until we reached a river with a hill that swept upward.

“Let’s bed down up on that ridge after we take a bath in the river,” said Gary.

“Roger that,” I said.

Upon washing the day’s grime off our bodies, we walked the bikes up the hill about 150 feet above the highway to a flat spot.  We pitched the tents, cooked dinner and watched the night sky reveal millions of twinkling stars.

Next morning, we pedaled along the same road until, in the distance, we discovered a walled-city perched high on a hill.

“Let’s check that one out,” said Gary.

“I’m with you,” I said.

We pedaled through woods and fields until the road spiraled upward toward massive 150-foot-high brick walls over 1,500 years old.  Along the way, we passed a small abandoned chapel where a work crew repaired furniture.  We stopped to see old paintings and statues along the church walls.  Those repairmen didn’t think much about working with artifacts and antiquities from centuries ago.

Finally, after sweating up the road, we reached the massive 20-foot high wooden gates of the city.  They hadn’t been closed for a hundred years or more.  Once inside the city, we stopped at a water fountain to fill our bottles and splash cool liquid into our faces.  Around us, shopkeepers and patrons walked along the inside of the walls.  A few kids pedaled their rusty bikes as they stared at us.   About 100 feet from the fountain, a gray, marble cathedral soared toward the sky.  At the top, stained glass windows perched atop beautiful carved frescos.

“Do you hear kids singing?” I asked Gary.

“Sounds like a children’s choir inside that cathedral with someone playing a guitar,” he said.

“Let’s check it out,” I said.

We walked up the marble steps of the church.  “Look at these steps,” Gary said.  “They’re worn down an inch at least from the centuries of worshipers coming to church.  Generation after generation for over 1,500 years.  Man, this is living history.”

We entered the church to sit in 1,500-year-old wooden pews that sat 100 people.  In the front, about 20 children and a guitar player practiced their songs in Italian. Their young voices mesmerized us.

For the next half hour, children’s voices carried like musical chariots across the inner chamber of that ancient church.  The sun shone through the stained glassed windows like colors from a double rainbow.  The scent of history permeated every painting. Gray marble columns rose 150 feet over our heads.  A stunning statue of Christ hung from a cross with blood dripping down his hands and body.

For the next 30 minutes, we sat in sublime joy with Italian songs floating through the air.  We couldn’t understand the language, yet our hearts and spirits felt their beauty.

While my bicycle carries me into magical moments on this planet, that day in the cathedral with a children’s choir lifting their voices to the heavens must be one of the most sublime moments of my lifetime. Afterwards, we thanked the children with, “Grazia” and “Molto bene” (exceedingly good) from our limited Italian language talents.

Back into the sunshine of the day, we remounted the bikes for our journey through the enchanting countryside of Tuscany. I thanked Gary for his friendship. I thanked the children for their voices.  I thanked my lucky stars to bear witness to the beauty humanity offers in music, spiritual quest and architectural beauty.

On our touring bikes, we added another thread into the tapestry of our lives.

To you, my dear reader of this year or many years, my wife Sandi and I wish you the very best during Christmas.  May your family be gathered, may your table be abundant, may your health be superb, and may you enjoy this season of the heart.  For certain, let us give thanks for the renewal brought about that special child in a manger of all Christendom.

Also, a special thank you for reading and forwarding my columns this year and for the last 20 years.  I attempt to alert Americans on multiple levels as to what we face as a civilization and as individuals.  I always give you my best research, my best work and my heart.  I love America and our people.  I love our energy, creativity and laughter.  I love our compassion, our generosity and our humanity.  May God bless you and your family.  Merry Christmas, Sandi and Frosty Wooldridge

Part 5: Kent State killings, Armstrong steps on the moon, day to day

When you’re living through horrific times in history such as the 60’s, you don’t think about it.  Instead, you make choices.  You make mistakes.  You lose friends.  You get betrayed by classmates.  You get things stolen off you.  People lie to you like the entire U.S. Congress and the president of the United States. You find yourself arguing with your parents.  You question the “why” of Vietnam.  You’re also scared of dying over there.

I returned from Fort Benning, Georgia late in the summer of 1968 with my head completely shaved from boot camp.  I could drop for 100 push-ups without batting an eyelash.  I could shoot the dot on a target 100 yards away.   But I realized that the “other guy” gunned for me with his rifle sight pointed at my head.  And, snipers, they killed any soldier who stuck his head up above the bunker.  It dawned on me that war didn’t care about your status, your brains, your height, your weight, your color or your religion.  If a bullet, bomb, I.E.D., or napalm carries your name on it, you’re a dead man or your body faces being totally mangled.

Boot camp taught me a whole new way to look at the world.  Letters from my buddies already fighting in Vietnam gave me a greater understanding about power, money and greed.  I read William Lederer’s: Our Own Worst Enemy in Vietnam: Our Government.  Later David Halberstam wrote: The Best and the Brightest.  That book really lays the facts of the Vietnam War at your feet.  Our politicians: a den of liars, thieves and swindlers.

That’s right! Lyndon Baines Johnson proved to be a sidewinder rattlesnake.  Tricky Dick proved himself a “Dick” of the lowest order.  Robert McNamara: a slime ball who kept us fighting in Vietnam for his “honor” at his decisions. It all came out in Daniel Ellsberg’s: The Pentagon Papers.  What all of us discovered:  American men of money and power, i.e., corporations of the Military Industrial Complex, didn’t mind sending all of us little twenty-year-old’s to meet our maker, JUST to line their wallets with millions and billions of dollars.  Worse, that complete “expletive” Westmoreland kept calling for more troops to kill every last Vietcong in the region.

Exactly what’s happening in Afghanistan and Iraq for the past 18 years–happened in Vietnam.  Only now, those MIC bastards enjoy a volunteer Army of kids that don’t speak up, but they do follow orders.  Every one of our troops died for nothing, and every kid without legs or arms, lost them for nothing.  And more than 60,000 soldiers who committed suicide in the past 18 years in Iraq or Afghanistan or after their deployments, well, the MIC considers them collateral damage.

When I returned to the MSU campus, I grabbed a job as a waiter at Coral Gables in East Lansing.  After not dating my first two years, a couple girls made me their boy toy.  That proved quite an introduction into the world of love or should I say, lust?

In January of 1968, the Tet Offensive began, and it created a blood bath on both sides.  When I finally realized what was going on, I became very disillusioned with the Federal Government.  No honor, no integrity and no respect.  Just bomb, napalm and strafe millions of people in Vietnam.  Final toll in 1975: over 3.1 million people in Vietnam killed.  We lost 58,220 to death. About 150,000 wounded.  Agent Orange created by the deadly Monsanto Corporation killed everything in its path and created birth defects for Vietnamese children for decades.

I carried my class load.  I took humanities, social studies, journalism, biology, math, astronomy, history, English, and now, military science courses in ROTC.  More riots nation-wide and more angry people everywhere.  College kids found themselves pitted against the “Silent Majority.”  Ironically, the Silent Majority trusted the political rattlesnakes, and didn’t mind letting their sons die in that God forsaken war.

McGovern and McCarthy stepped up their stances against the War in Vietnam.

In the summer of 1969, July 20^th, Neil Armstrong landed on the moon. I watched it on a black and white TV after coming home from working the late-night shift at Coral Gables Bar.  It’s an amazing feeling to see humanity at its loftiest good, only to realize that we’re still war-beasts that kill each other in massive numbers.

At East Holden Hall that fall, I hunkered down with heavy studies. While I wanted to date, I didn’t have time.  Until, that is, I met a 6-foot-tall, built like Cindy Crawford, gorgeous lady who seemed interested in me. She made herself available.

The one thing I discovered about women:  they pretend they like all the stuff they find in a man they want to date. They go skiing with you, scuba diving, backpacking, windsurfing, bicycling, tennis and more.  But if that’s not their lifestyle, they soon return to what they rather be doing.   I didn’t know that. But I sure the heck found out the hard way.

This lady, and she proved to be a wonderful woman, pretended to like tennis, racquetball, skiing and more—but in reality, she loved comfort, security, constancy, expensive dinners and hotels.  She liked camping with me.  So, I asked her to marry me.  Big mistake.  In actuality, she loved to buy clothes and watch TV.  She proved to be a “couch potato.”

Anyway, I married her in the spring 1970, the day after I graduated.  She did not understand that I loved camping and sports more than hotels and beaches in the Caribbean, unless I dove under water with my scuba tanks.  I did not possess a clue that we were totally incompatible.  Neither did she!  Three years later, we shook hands and said goodbye.  No kids, no problems, lots of emotional pain!

He got the 1973 Mustang Fastback and all our furniture. I grabbed my 1970 CB 750 Honda and a new apartment.  I stayed single for the next 35 years.

As I look back, all my buddies that married their gals right after college, over half of them suffered divorces, weekend fatherhood and alimony. We baby boomers created the largest wave of divorces in U.S. history.  Lot of pain out there and the kids paid dearly.  Once a couple divorces, the kids lose structure, security, peaceful existence, and get caught in the middle of two angry people.

That summer of 1970, I attended advanced boot camp at Fort Riley, Kansas.  Holy crap, killing and being killed got serious.  Because I stood at the top of my class, I reported to Col. Starr.  We received three branch choices: two combat and one non-combat.  When I walked into his office, I said, “I’ll take Armor and Artillery.” “What’s your non-combat choice cadet Wooldridge?”  “What’s the safest branch,” I asked.  “Those pussy MSC people,” he said.  “I’ll take MSC,” I said.

Medical Service Corps!  I would be patching up war wounded, dressing wounds, training medics and dealing with napalm patients who suffered horrific burns from that jellied gasoline.

When the branches came out, guys dropped to their knees in tears when they got infantry.  Out of that class of 50 cadets, a lot of them died in Nam.  To this day, being an MSC officer saved my mind and body.

That spring, May 4, 1970 at Kent State University in Ohio, the National Guard opened fire on students, killing four and wounding nine. It enraged the country.

Over the weekend, all five major networks reported on a marathon runner grabbing the rear end of a female reporter.  As she stood alongside the long line of runners, one of the men slapped or grabbed her with a perfect picture of his face as he ran by the reporter.  Later, she threatened a lawsuit and prison time.  Sobbing profusely, the guy begged her forgiveness and promised never to do such a profane act again.  Every bar waitress should enjoy such apologies!

Meanwhile, in the United States Congress, full of 535 mostly ‘randy’ men, they maintained a $20 million slush fund from taxpayer dollars to fend off sexual harassment charges from female aides over the last 50 years.  President Bill Clinton, of course, led all presidents in his pursuit of women—some 42 of them charging him with rape or molestation.  He, of course, maintains his innocence. He defended himself with, “It depends on what the meaning of “is” is….”

Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton’s daughter, Chelsea, looks exactly like her former lawyer colleague Webb Hubbell, not any resemblance to her purported father, Bill Clinton. The cartoon goes like this, “Ever notice how the media always asks Ivanka Trump about her fathers’ treatment of women, but they never ask Chelsea that same question?”

Remember when the Dems took America on a two-year ride with the Mueller Report on Trump’s collusion with the Russians?  But they never followed up on the microphone recording when Obama told a Russian, “After my election, I’ll have more flexibility.”  The media had direct recorded evidence of Obama’s collusion with Russia, but nobody cared follow up with impeachment proceedings.

In the Trump impeachment hearing, Ambassador Marie Yovanovich said, “Trump treated me badly.” Yes, he fired her, which angered her.  If Ambassador Chris Stevens could speak from the grave, he would say, “Obama left me out to be drawn and quartered by Islamic terrorists.” But of course, in his book, Dreams of My Father (which he really doesn’t know which one), Barack Obama said, “If the political winds turn ugly, I will stand with my Muslim friends….”

I love the one showing Speaker Nancy Pelosi saying, “President Trump can be investigated, because no one is above the law.  But Joe Biden cannot be investigated because he is running for president.”  Notice that all those top leaders have family members on the Ukraine Oil Company’s board of directors, making $50,000.00 per month in salaries for doing absolutely nothing.  Talk about irony!

While House member Adam Schiff won’t identify the mysterious whistle-blower who started the impeachment, remember the U.S. Border Patrol agent Brian Terry. Don’t forget that Obama fired the whistle-blower who exposed Terry’s murder during Fast & Furious.

How about the political cartoon with Nancy Pelosi, “No one is above the law!  Except Joe Biden, Hunter Biden, Hillary Clinton and her Clinton Foundation, John Kerry, Ilhan Omar, Al Sharpton, and 30 million illegal aliens.”

Ironically, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Maxine Waters, Diane Feinstein, Swalwell and Schiff tell the president what a failure he is, yet they represent California which houses four million illegal aliens, multi-billion dollar underground economy breaking American taxpayers’ backs, 59,000 homeless in Los Angeles with rats and feces everywhere, 11,000 homeless in San Francisco, more illegal alien prisoners in jail than any other state, educational chaos in California schools with no less than 100 foreign languages per classroom, and MS 13 drug gangs entrenched in every city in that state.

At the democratic debates, “No American flags in that American presidential debate because they didn’t want to offend their base of Muslims, Mexicans, El Salvadorans, Hondurans, Indians, Chinese, Pakistani’s, Iraqians, etc.  Let that sink in.”

A little girl rolling her eyes, sipping on a straw from her soda, “That face you make when democrats repeat “No one is above the law” while refusing to enforce immigration laws or securing America’s borders.”

“Funny how all those young people advocate for socialism, but really don’t contribute much to society to begin with…”

“I have campaigned in all 57 states,” said Muslim Barack H. Obama while speaking to a crowd of Americans in 2008. He thought he was addressing Muslims and their 57 states.  He became our president. Fancy that!

“You don’t need God anymore; you have us democrats,” said Nancy Pelosi, 2006

This one from our newest vacant-mind in Congress, Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, “Owning guns is not a right. If it were, it would be in the Constitution.”  Which, by the way, she has never read, or the Bill of Rights, or the Declaration of Independence.

And to show you the people that lead America, “We just have to pass Obama’s Healthcare Bill to see what’s in it.”    Nancy Pelosi, March 2010

Finally:

Tokyo, Japan – 1630-September 1, 1945

To: H S Truman
From: D A MacArthur and C H Nimitz

Wilco Sir, but both Chester and I are somewhat confused, exactly what does the term politically correct mean?

(4)  Washington, D C – 2120-September 1, 1945

To: D A MacArthur/C H Nimitz
From: H S Truman

Political Correctness is a doctrine, recently fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and promoted by a sick mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a piece of shit by the clean end!

Now, with special thanks to the Truman Museum and Harry himself, you and I finally have a full understanding of what ‘POLITICAL CORRECTNESS’ really means….

Boy, is that marathon runner in a world of political correctness….

Part 5:  Racism, Same Riddle, nasty situations

World War I U.S. Army General Smedley Butler said, “There are only two things we should fight for. One is the defense of our homes and the other is the Bill of Rights. War is a racket. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives. War is just a racket… I believe in adequate defense at the coastline and nothing else.”

After the Tet Offensive, more Americans realized that Vietnam killed a lot of kids, caused enormous drug addiction problems, and fractured our country.  At the same time, Dr. Martin Luther King faced an executioner April 4, 1968 at the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tennessee.  The riots and the burning began!

America faced an ever-growing racial conflict.  Segregation wouldn’t cut it much longer. Governor George Wallace stood in front of the school door to stop Blacks from integrating in Alabama, but the old south, lynching’s and intimidations painfully gave way to equal rights for African-Americans.

What I saw since I lived in the South for the last three years of my high school career gave me pause.  Integration, while it proved moral and ethical, resulted in some nasty results.  Blacks in Albany, Georgia entered my old high school as my little brother arrived. They beat him up, stole his lunch money and degraded him so often that my mother pulled him out and placed him in a private high school for his own safety.  He became a “Star Student” and salutatorian of his senior class.  Worse, most whites fled their own schools and moved to all-white cities.

Integration wasn’t the handy be-all and end-all that Martin Luther King envisioned.  Tragically, 50 years later, not a day goes by that you don’t read about racism or racial conflict in America.

In fact, the same goes around the world.  Everybody says that whites caused racism in America.  But in fact, racism occurs in Japan, India, China, Mexico, Africa, the Middle East, Europe, and well, just about every country that mixes ethnic groups. I’ve come to realize that racism stems from culture and tribalism.  It’s biological.  The only hope we must work toward: respect each person as he or she lives the best he or she can in their time on this planet.

As to the Vietnam War, “Hanoi had launched the offensive in the belief that the offensive would trigger a popular uprising leading to the collapse of the South Vietnamese government. Although the initial attacks stunned the allies, causing them to lose control of several cities temporarily, they quickly regrouped, beat back the attacks, and inflicted heavy casualties on PAVN/VC forces. The popular uprising anticipated by Hanoi never happened. During the Battle of Hue, intense fighting lasted for a month, resulting in the destruction of the city. During their occupation, the PAVN/VC executed thousands of people in the Massacre at Hue. Around the U.S. combat base at Khe Sanh, fighting continued for two more months. The offensive was a military defeat for North Vietnam though General Westmoreland reported that defeating the PAVN/VC would require 200,000 more American soldiers and activation of the reserves, prompting even loyal supporters of the war to see that the current war strategy required re-evaluation. The offensive had a strong effect on the U.S. government and shocked the U.S. public, which had been led to believe by its political and military leaders that the North Vietnamese were being defeated and incapable of launching such an ambitious military operation; American public support for the war soon declined and the U.S. sought negotiations to end the war.”

All my ROTC classmates wished, prayed and hoped the war would end before they graduated into active duty in the U.S. Army.

After leaving the White House, Lyndon Baines Johnson retreated to his Texas ranch. He remained depressed and reclusive for the rest of his life. Why? Because he created such a deadly massacre of young men and all for nothing.  Again, LBJ and George W. Bush should share the same cell in hell for their obscene actions and their dishonesty that killed so many young men.

While in college, I attended journalism classes, which really excited me. I became a cub reporter for the Michigan State News.  Loved it!  That launched toward becoming a writer and author.

One thing about college, I attended Shakespeare’s plays, live theater and debates.  I mixed with people from all over the world.  I discovered that few people think the same way from other countries.  It’s a wonder anyone gets along from various countries because their cultures conflict and their languages conflict because they see the world differently.  Probably the worst thing that happened to humanity in the 20^th and 21^st century stems from instant  travel and migration.  I think we will continue to see internal conflict from mixing cultures, religions and languages from here on out.

In the meantime, I became a Resident Assistant with 50-man floor. I organized, counseled and kept order on my floor: Uncle Fudd’s Pump House, East Holden, the newest residence hall on campus.  Of course, while on duty in the cafeteria, a particular Black guy named Sam Riddle from Detroit, tried to gain the back door for a free meal. I stood in his way. He told me that he and his friends would be back to kill me the next evening.  I said, “Bring it!”

He sure did!  The next evening, he brought 50 black thugs from Detroit. They broke into the front doors of the cafeteria and lined the walls. Then, they swept across the 50-yard-long cafeteria that served 1,200 students by tipping over tables, pouring milk on students’ heads. They even poured liquid on the Head Resident Advisor and his wife and two kids.  Girls screamed, and the guys backed off from the thugs.  We called the cops.  By the time they arrived, Sam Riddle and his thugs vanished.

We faced a serious racial situation as most college campuses experienced at that time.

From being a peaceful farm boy, to a southern high school student, to a big-time college kid, I learned that life wasn’t so simple.  The war frightened me.  Racial conflict confused me.  I attended ROTC classes, but always walked to class with my uniform in a suit case because I didn’t want to suffer rocks thrown at me or name calling.  At the same time, I met a 6-foot-tall art student who proved quite gorgeous.  I started dating her.  We hit it off.

Part 4:  College, Vietnam, coming to terms with political corruption

When I entered college in the fall of 1965, I didn’t know anything about how our U.S. Congress worked.  I didn’t understand the ramifications of entrenched corruption, good old boy clubs and how corporations greased the palms of our elected officials to overlook our laws or pass what they wanted.  I didn’t think such honorable officials would cheat their own countrymen.

My daddy was a U.S. Marine. America was the finest country in the world. America was true, just, fair and honorable.  Yes, average Americans proved to be all of that, but our elected officials proved themselves to be a den of thieves.   In the end, Robert McNamara engineered the Vietnam War. He killed off millions of people, but lived to 90 years of age.  He wrote an apology book: Fog of War. Read it and it will make you sick to your stomach.  McNamara, Westmoreland and LBJ should be roommates in hell. And every Senator and House Member who funded the war for 10 years should join them.

As to screwing the American people, Woodrow Wilson signed the Federal Reserve Act in 1913, which put a bunch of private bankers into the driver’s seat of our entire money system, where they dictate everything in our money system today.  Essentially, those men are pure aristocracy of financial power.  That’s total corruption, and yet, they get away with it in 2019 and beyond.  Lord Acton said, “Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men, even when they exercise influence and not authority; still more when you super-add the tendency of the certainty of corruption by authority.”

As many readers have responded to this series, yes, I know that the Rothchilds, Bilderbergers, J.Paul Getty’s, Ford’s and others, enforced enormous financial power to sway public opinion, and in reality, buy elections and make wars happen.  While John Kennedy gained the  White House primarily with his father’s illegal booze money and outright election fraud, President Kennedy also carried on with a 19-year-old intern.  It’s even documented that he committed many affairs all the way up to Marilynn Monroe.  Like Hillary Clinton with her husband Bill, Jackie Kennedy knew her husband cheated on her, often.

This whole thing about ‘power’ began to make its way into my brain and understanding of how the world worked.

After reading that President Franklin D. Roosevelt knew about the impending attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, but he ‘let’ or even ‘made sure’ we were ‘surprised’ and unprepared on that early morning, well, he sacrificed all those men’s lives for his political agenda to enter WWII.  I call that cruel and amoral.

But one of the worst acts of the Kennedy’s: Senator Teddy Kennedy, a drunk and sexual predator, along with Howard Metzenbaum and Jacob Javits, passed the 1965 Immigration Reform Act.  That single bill birthed the biggest monster that’s leading to the ultimate downfall of the United States—massive and endless immigration out of the third world to create a multicultural, racially & religiously incompatible, linguistically separated and culturally chaotic America—which we face today.  We’re no longer the “American people” but a mishmash of very incompatible cultures, languages and cultures at odds with one another.  That one bill will prove the undoing of the Founding Fathers and this Republic.

Vietnam Protests, ROTC

Heading into my junior year at Michigan State University, I received many letters from floormates in Nam who had been drafted, that we weren’t fighting to stop communism, but only to keep the war going to fill bankers’ pockets and continue the war for the war’s money-making sake.  We weren’t there to win or lose, just to keep fighting and dying. One thing about conscripted soldiers: they tell the truth of what’s actually happening.

That fall, Life Magazine published 320 kids who had been killed in Vietnam in one week. They covered the front page with wallet-sized photos in black and white. Inside, 320 of them: dead. Lives taken by the ‘masters’ in the White House and Congress. At that point, I already knew a half dozen who had died.  I crapped my pants in the fear of the reality that time would bring up my number for the draft.

We marched in the streets.  MSU campus became a war zone. Rocks got tossed into the administration building, classes disrupted, and peace signs everywhere!  I participated in several marches:  Detroit, Chicago and Washington DC.  “Hell no, we won’t go….”  Guys burned their draft cards.

So, in the summer of 1968, I signed up for Army ROTC.  I wanted to be able to finish my degree, and if possible, choose my future rather than being a draftee grunt in 11 Bravo, Infantry, Queen of Battle.  I reported for duty at Fort Benning, Georgia.  Again, if you want to know what it was/is like in basic training, watch the movie, Full Metal Jacket.

Drill sergeants treated us like the lowest scumballs on the planet. They screamed out degrading names.  They shamed us at every chance.  They made us do 100, 150, even 200 pushups per day for no other reason than their power over us. I found myself in E-8-2.  Never forget those hot, humid Georgia barracks from WWII. Ticks, mosquitos, chiggers, gnats, flies and poison ivy.  We were commanded to stupidly, unquestionably and mindlessly follow orders.  That’s why the My Lai Massacre and other outright murders happened by the thousands over that 10 year war.  War turns men insane, crazy and deadly.

They forced us to sing, “I wanna’ go to Vietnam, I wanna’ fight the Vietcong…I wanna’ go see Ho Chi Min, to pull the whiskers on his chin…sound off, 1, 2, sound off, 3,4….I wanna’ be an Air Born Ranger, I wanna’ live a life of danger….”

Now I really shit my pants.  Forced marches, night marches, four hours sleep, firing range, PT endlessly, bayonet training,  (what’s the call of a bayonet fighter, “To kill, to kill!”), degradation daily and reduction of your humanity into that of a killing machine.  Crawling under concertino wire, lobbing grenades and night crawling under live fire with tracers.  Bunkers blowing you off the ground to simulate real battle….

If I could have killed my sadistic drill sergeant with immunity, I would have considered it.  He had fought in Vietnam and got his jaw shot half off.  For some reason, he got a kick out of war. He showed his shrapnel wounds and scars. Around the base, I saw guys with missing limbs and horrible disfigurement.   Many guys with napalm burns lost their ears, noses or lips. Some had their eyelids burned off with that deadly jellied gasoline that stuck to their bodies.

One night on fire watch, I sat at the front door of the barracks around 3: 00 a.m. wondering if I would live or die in Nam, or simply be burned to a crisp.  Or, come home missing my legs or an arm. The one thing I discovered about war: you can be smart, dumb, short, tall, skinny, fat,  rich or poor—it doesn’t make any difference.  If a bullet had your name on it; you would die or be maimed.  There are no heroes in war as they portray in the movies.  Just the lucky ones who live through combat by the luck of the draw!  I sat there in the moonlight crying.  “God, dad,” I muttered.  “Is this what you went through in the Marshall Islands?  I’m scared.  Help me get through this, dad.”

Part 3: College years, Vietnam, racism, affirmative action, buddies dying, discovering the people leading the US Government thrive on corruption, Simon and Garfunkel, Beatles.

As to being a “Baby Boomer,” none of us realized that we constituted an 80 million person “wave” of kids from 1946 to 1964, who stepped off the farm, with all its hard work and long hours—and ran headlong into TV, muscle cars, women’s rights, civil rights for Blacks, Elvis Presley, the Vietnam War, the Beatles, Simon and Garfunkel, and a nasty feeling that our “safe” world wasn’t so innocent.

After Kennedy suffered assassination on November 22, 1963, I sat in my 10^th grade English class with Mrs. Clyatt when the principle announced it over the P.A. system. Vice President Lyndon Baines Johnson became president.  No one knew he constituted one of the most corrupt, money grabbing, lying and deceitful S.O.B.’s ever to reach the White House in the 20^th century.  Even Bill Clinton couldn’t beat LBJ out. Johnson literally created the Vietnam War via the Gulf of Tonkin Incident, which proved a total fraud.  It duplicated G.W. Bush’s “Weapons of Mass Destruction” in Iraq fraud that has killed over 6,500 U.S. soldiers in combat in Iraq and some 60,000 veteran and active duty suicides since 2001. Johnson and G.W. Bush should share the same locker in hell. Nixon should be their cleaning maid.

In the case of Johnson, he killed 2.1 million civilian Vietnamese and over 1.1 million Vietcong and South Vietnamese troops.  At the same time, he took the lives of 58,220 American kids he forced into combat, along with another 150,000 horribly wounded.  I knew a half dozen of them personally who died for that bastard.  Johnson unknowingly started the drug onslaught in America of heroin, meth, cocaine, MJ and more from soldiers who got ‘high’ just to survive Vietnam.  They returned to broken marriages, being spit upon and suffering from P.T.S.D. If you want a taste of what it was like, watch the movie: Full Metal Jacket. 

All the while, the WWII generation, known as the “Silent Majority” quietly supported the Vietnam War because they trusted their president and Congressional leaders to do the right thing.  When in fact, the majority of Congress funded an illegal “Bankers’ War” instigated by the Military Industrial Complex.  Those same Senators and House members dipped their wallets into the “War Machine” via insider trading on stocks from defense contractors.   President Eisenhower warned against the MIC, but nobody paid any attention.

So, for 10 years, 1965 to 1975, corporations made billions while my generation got shot up, drugged up and maimed emotionally and physically. Pretty much the same today with two 18 year-long wars and an all-volunteer Army of young kids that do not know what awaits them once they join the Army or Marines.

If you start talking about the African-Americans, well, racism raged everywhere. Separate drinking fountains, motels, restaurants and schools.  With Martin Luther King, that changed with the Civil Rights Act.  Much changed since the 60’s, but racism still thrives on both sides of the races.  Everyone pretends that it’s learned, but in fact, it’s “biological and tribal” and it’s not going to calm down in the near or far future.  It’s going be a thorn in the side of America for the rest of our existence as a country.  I used to think we could solve it, but I am no longer optimistic for such a utopian future.

On a historical note, slavery built the pyramids, Great Wall, Carthage, Rome and other big empires.  The one thing that African-Americans can at least appreciate: over 500,000 white Union soldiers gave up their lives to end slavery.  Martin Luther King gave up his life to bring equal rights.  No other country gives Blacks as much benefit and opportunity as in the United States of America.  Yet, slavery still exists in Africa, the Middle East and other third world countries.

In my senior year, my mother struggled to balance the check book and raise our family.  She worked at a church where the priests sexually harassed her.  She came home in tears at times.  I lack any clue as to how she survived all those years being single.  In fact, she remained single the rest of her life.

I struggled to keep my sense of purpose. The summer of my senior year screamed by in a blur.  We did not enjoy grief counseling. Therefore, each of us staggered through daily living.  I really don’t know how any of us made it through those first couple of years after dad’s death.

At some point, the pain ebbed and life carried on, and took us with it.

My Senior Year 1964 to 1965 in High School

Mrs. Nancy Steller, my English teacher, divorced with two kids, provided me with balance and incentives to maintain my grades toward college.  I don’t know how our poorly paid teachers taught school.  They lived on poverty wages.  Yet, they taught us.  Rex and I played on the football and basketball teams, plus track. I applied to Michigan State University and enjoyed the acceptance paper.  We lettered in three sports, and participated in the class play and junior-senior prom. I took Judy Smith to the prom, my only date in high school!

I worked four jobs all summer in 1965.  In the fall, mom bought a VW bug for  $1,495.00 and drove it 1,000 miles to East Lansing, Michigan and the sprawling Michigan State University campus.  That first night in 433 North Wonders Hall, I sat up in my room in the window—and cried my eyes out.

“What in the hell have I gotten myself into?” I muttered through my tears.  “I promise you this, dad, I’m going to do my best and make you proud.”

My freshman year passed with me being voted V.P. of my 50 man residence hall floor.  I volunteered to be secretary of the hall council government.  The Head Resident Counselor who ran the hall saw my potential.  I became a resident assistant staff member the next year.

I attended every class by using my $10.00 used Schwinn bicycle on the 500 acre campus.  I studied every spare moment outside of class. I booked it every weekend.  I played paddleball three times a week for one hour to blow off energy. I didn’t date because I didn’t enjoy any spare money.  I played freshman football with some of the biggest stars of the 1970’s in pro-football: Bubba Smith, Clint Jones, Gene Washington, Saul Brothers, Mickey Webster, Al Brenner and others in baseball like Steve Garvey.

What I didn’t know: those inner city kids could catch a pass and hit like a freight train, but they were dumber than a box of rocks.  Bubba never attended class and spent all his time in the grill checking out the women.  The academic fraud blew my mind.  I studied my rear-end off while those free-ride minority athletes enjoyed free grades.  Many of them ‘graduated’ functionally illiterate.

In my sophomore spring practice, a 240 pound linebacker hit me so hard that he knocked me into the hospital for three days with a severe concussion.  I never suited up again.  Football is one God-awful vicious and deadly sport.  How anyone survives a whole season in the pros blows my mind.

In the summer of 1966, I worked as a baggage handler for United Airlines for a whopping $2.12 an hour.  I slept in a tent all summer to save money.

In the fall of 1966, the Vietnam War began taking casualties of young kids like me.  And, we needed to keep in the top half of our class to be exempt from the draft.  My roommate didn’t make the grade, got drafted into the U.S. Army—and trained in Advanced Infantry at Fort Polk. When he shipped over to Nam, he stopped by to give me a small peace ring.  He said, “If I make it back, we can drink a beer and laugh about it…if I don’t, wear this peace ring and be a man of peace for the rest of your life.”

He got killed in a firefight within three months of landing in Nam.  Each time I visit The Vietnam Wall in Washington DC, I cry my eyes out that he didn’t get to live his life because of the bastards in Washington DC.

I have worn his ring every day of my life since 1967.

Part 2: High school, Cuba blockade, race riots, separate drinking fountains, Vietnam War

In my high school sophomore year, my father moved us to Albany, Georgia.  At the age of 15, I jumped from a northern climate to the hot, muggy temperatures of the Deep South. Additionally, from getting beat up by bullies back in Michigan, I joined a whole new pecking order of southern hicks who wanted to show me where I stood—at the bottom of their pecking order.

I promptly grabbed an 80-customer paper route with the Atlanta Constitution-Journal at 5:00 a.m., seven days a week.  I also played football, basketball and track.  At the time, the Cuban Missile Crisis jumped out of the SAC base there in Albany.  Enormous B-52’s filled the skies 24/7.  President Kennedy finally made a blockade move that Khrushchev, couldn’t handle—so the Russian leader backed down after the blockade.  However, Castro remained in power and became a nemesis for the next 50 years.  Essentially, the Monroe Doctrine held, but Cuba continued as a thorn in our side in the Western Hemisphere.

At 15, I slowly began understanding that the world carried a different tune of violence, wars, political positioning and tension.  As a kid living an average middle-class, middle-American life, I didn’t really know about or understand the geo-political intrigues of WWII, Korea or the impending Vietnam War.

I delivered papers seven days a week at 2 cents a paper.  I worked as a  pool cleaner at 60 cents an hour from 7 to 10 a.m., and lifeguard at 75 cents an hour from 10 to 6 p.m. and dishwasher from 6 to 9 ever night, seven days a week.   My mom said, “You’re saving for college.”  By the time I hit 16, my father said I could drive his 1953 Chevy station-wagon with a straight six and three on the column.  A beast!  All I had to do was pay for the insurance, tires and maintenance.  It only carried 1^st and 3^rd gears as 2^nd gear blew out and we didn’t have the money to overhaul the transmission.

With all of that, my brother Rex and I found ourselves being picked on, beat up and hassled by the top four bullies of the school. As you can imagine, at 6’2 ½” and 180 pounds, I wasn’t a pip-squeak anymore.  I started lifting weights with Charles Atlas instruction.  All four of the chief bullies suffered horrible pains after Rex and I beat the crap out of them. Rex matched my size.  After those events, nobody bothered us for the rest of our high school careers.

From 10^th to 11^th grade—school, study, paper route and sports. Dad umpired games, wrote articles for local paper and gave our family the best of the best.  He didn’t drink, smoke or curse.  He and mom danced on Saturday nights.  Life for us—pretty normal!    The Cuban Missile Crisis faded, and the Cold War didn’t seem much of a big deal to me.  I really didn’t understand the way the world worked at that point.  Still very much naïve!  That would quickly change in the spring of my 11^th grade year.

My brother Rex and I drove home from baseball practice in the 53’ Chevy.  We talked about the last game with Macon.  Then, I noticed one of my dad’s friends pull up behind me, motioning me to pull over and honking on his horn.

“What’s up, Mr. George?” I asked, as he came to my window.

“I got some bad news, Frosty,” he said.  “I don’t know how to tell you boys this, but your father was umpiring behind the plate at the Albany game today.  At the top of the second inning, he called a batter out, grabbed his chest, and fell over the catcher, and died on home plate of a massive heart attack.”

“Oh my God!” I cried out.

Rex started screaming, “No, no, no….” in the seat beside me.

All of a sudden, our world changed drastically.  From enjoying a great childhood to being thrust into instant pain, sorrow, and total loss of structure in our lives.

Mr. George jumped into the car and drove us home.  A couple of preachers sat with our mom, our other brother and sister.  Neighbors brought food, but all I wanted to do was run away. I comforted mom, but didn’t know what to do.  Later, they left, and our little family sat in the living room, crying, sobbing and confused about life.

Three days later, we attended an open casket funeral of my father.  One day I saw him vibrant with life, and three days later, he’s decked out in a casket, with his life vanished.  We traveled to Michigan to bury him at the Reed City cemetery of his youth.  As they lowered him into the grave, U.S. Marines gave him a 21-gun salute.  (Even 55 years later, as I write this story, huge tears stream down my face. It’s still as painful to lose my dad a half century later as it was in 1964.)

To this day, I hate funerals.  I never attend open casket funerals.  I attend memorials and I speak about my friends’ lives and celebrate their time on this planet.  And, at this later stage of my life, I’m going to a lot of funerals.  My old Army buddy Archie said, “Frosty, if we live long enough, we’ll keep going to these memorials until we too, are the main attraction.”  Always the joker, that Archie!

I staggered through the summer.  I stumbled into my senior year at Dougherty High School.  While I became a top player on the championship basketball team, it didn’t mean much because dad no longer sat in the stands.  I think all young men play for their dads to be proud of them.  I lost that, and, it took something out of me.  But I can say that his legacy to me remains today: true grit, never say quit and uncommon tenacity.  He proved an average man, but he stands as a towering figure in my life.

During those years, Dr. Martin Luther King marched from Selma to Montgomery, Alabama.  Race riots spread.  And yes, I was in the middle of “separate drinking fountains, schools, bathrooms, motels and restaurants.”  Then, Kennedy suffered assignation on November 22, 2063. Upon reaching 18, I registered for the draft.  Lyndon Baines Johnson began building up troops in Vietnam.

My life as a baby boomer was about to go on a hell of a ride.

Coming in part 3:  College years, Vietnam, buddies dying, discovering the US Government lies like a thief.

Part 1:  Becoming a baby boomer after World War II, the early years

On January 26, 1947, my mother gave birth to her first-born child.  That 8-pound 12 ounce bouncing baby boy turned out to be yours truly.  Since my father, a Reed City, Michigan boy, and U.S. Marine M/Sgt. Howard Wooldridge, returned from fighting in the Marshall Islands, my birth took place at the Great Lakes Naval Air Station, Illinois, just north of Chicago.

Within weeks, we moved back to our 80-acre farm in LeRoy, Michigan, a farming town of 500, which by the way, in 2019, still sports 500 farmers.  It’s a sleepy little berg south of Cadillac, Michigan on old 131.  It features rolling hills, massive maple-pine-poplar forests, many lakes and lots of rivers.  If you visit, you might see fields of hay, corn, wheat, barley and numerous barnyards with old-style barns, most of them red.

In our 120-year-old farm house, I grew up with four siblings.  My younger years saw me using an outhouse until age seven.  We took baths in a tub until I turned seven when we finally installed a toilet and shower.  Wow, hot water, a sink in the kitchen and a Maytag stove that still works today.  We finally replaced the 50-year-old refrigerator, NOT because it broke, but because it became too small for our needs.  Needless to say, back then, they built stoves and fridges to last.

Once during my childhood, with my long johns drooping on my body, I had to stoke the furnace with coal in the middle of the night.  Snow fell everywhere during a normal Michigan winter with 10-foot snow drifts.  I finished shoveling coal into the Holland Furnace, but needed to visit the outhouse.  Can you imagine a young kid with boots, trudging through three feet of snow to get to the outhouse in the dead of night? Only the yard light gave me an indication of the location of the outhouse in the middle of the darkness.

Upon opening the door, that same “outhouse odor” slammed into my nostrils.  Cob webs in the corners, and a Sears Magazine for toilet paper.  I don’t mind telling you that I came from humble beginnings.  A Sears Magazine is about as humble as it gets for toilet paper.

When I sat down, that -10 degrees F felt like sitting on a frozen doughnut.  It about causes your rear end to jump from the seat, but then, you’ve got to get your business done, so you force yourself to stay on that iceberg seat.

Later, I trudged through the snow, back into the house, and crawled under my quilt to sleep the rest of the night away.

For breakfast before school, I walked up to my grandfather’s barn up the hill 100 yards to milk the cows, and then, bring home a gallon of fresh milk. In the early morning darkness, my imagination ran wild with the prospect of some monster jumping out of the bushes to eat me.  We were too poor for a flashlight, so I suffered regularly from certain death by unknown demons.

Mom cooked oatmeal and baked bread.  My siblings and I enjoyed homemade blackberry jam, butter and toast.

As we grew older, we watched grandpa place chickens onto a wooden horse and take an ax to their necks.  We thought it quite humorous to see a chicken running around without its head.  That’s where the adage originated, “Running around like a chicken with his head cut off.”  Of course, today, kids would never understand that idiom. Same with “getting down to brass tacks.”  Heck, kids today lack any understanding about the origins of America, or for that matter, where our food and milk originated.  Most city kids, glued to their cell phones from age 8 onward, think food comes from a grocery store.  They can’t imagine seeing a bloody deer, cow or chicken carcass being butchered and prepared for human consumption. They don’t possess a clue that milk comes from the udders of a cow.  Same with chicken eggs. We used to collect them from the hen house.

I attended LeRoy Elementary School.  My father and mother told me to always do my studies and homework first, and then, play sports. Best advice I ever received in my youth.  As I grew taller at 6’2 ½”, I became a shortstop in baseball and guard in basketball.

Of course, the older I became, the more my parents and grandparents put upon me to work.  Spring wheat saw me working my rear-end off.  That old 1949 B John Deere tractor ran from dawn to dusk with me in the driver’s seat cutting hay.  Then, baling it, loading it and slamming those 60-pound bales into the barn loft.  Seems like I cultivated the corn until it grew over my head.

On Sundays, we attended church.  By mid-summer, we picked all the vegetables out of the garden for canning. We picked blue berries, and later, apples for apple sauce.  My mom canned everything for winter stores.   We also played a lot of baseball catching and hitting.  I built a basketball hoop in our adjacent cow pasture.  And yes, fishing out of a rowboat, much better than a therapist.  I enjoyed my childhood with my three brothers and sister.

One thing about growing up on a farm: you’re wanted, you’re needed and you learn the value of hard work and healthy living.  You’re also very close to Nature which gives you a balance that stays with you all your life.

But then came 9^th grade with bullies who got a kick out of busting me in the arm with their fists.  Because I became tall and athletic, I got a taste of the male pecking order.  If they couldn’t compete with me on the athletic field, they decided to beat the crap out of me off the field.

My dad said, “Son, they might make a meal out of you…but you stand your ground…and just land one punch that they’ll remember…and they won’t bother you anymore.”

Dad called it!  The next time Bobby Varnado hit me going down the hall, and then, shoved a pencil up my butt when I walked back to my seat, I turned around and gave him a black eye he remembers to this day.  At every 10-year reunion, he remembers that I busted him up pretty damned good.  He never bothered me again.

Losing Your Memory

The last time I visited my mother before she passed away, I walked into her room with my wife, and sat for 30 minutes telling my mom how much I appreciated her being a super mother during my childhood.  I thanked her for a litany of events that stood out in my mind.  I covered everything from birthdays to sporting events to camping to helping take my first bicycle ride.  I thanked her for celebrating my high school and college graduation ceremonies.  I really thanked her “for being proud of me.”

At that point, I walked out of her room down the hall to the bathroom.  While I was gone, she asked my wife Sandi, “Who is that nice young man with all those compliments?”

“Why, that’s your oldest son, Frosty,” my wife said.

“Oh, I never imagined him looking so different,” she said.

When I walked back into the room, my mom stood up to hug me as she now recognized me as her oldest son.  As a matter of fact, she didn’t know her other sons, either.   We had all become strangers to my mother.

Old age isn’t fun.  It’s okay for some people and totally miserable for others.  One of my old triathete buddies, one of the fittest men I ever met, now moves around in a wheelchair with vertigo and loss of hearing.  He’s hoping to regain his hearing with an hearing implant.

Another X-terra super athlete friend of mine, only 62, suffers from Alzheimer’s disease.  He’s slowly losing his mind.  He knows me, but can’t recall my name half the time.  He’s not allowed to drive any longer.

Even my mother-in-law, for the last 10 years of her life, couldn’t tell you the name of the president of the United States.  She always smiled at me, but I don’t think she knew my name. She passed away at 88.

In reality, old age ain’t for sissies. We face aching joints, arthritis, obesity, diabetes, heart disease and cancer.

But the one thing that jolts me the most: losing my mental abilities.

About a year ago, I started losing ‘words’ in my everyday speech.  I wanted to say the word, but I couldn’t find it in my mind.  I quickly came up with another word to replace the one that I wanted.  That’s when I started doing research on how to halt the loss of my memory.

Most, 7 out of 10, Americans today, especially the baby boomers, which I am a lead member, suffer obesity in its many forms.  We also watch 4.1 hours of TV seven days a week.  Most of us don’t exercise.  We eat a lot of garbage foods that don’t help our nutrition or our health.  I almost think we’re giving up on living or tired of it or simply exhausted by living into our seventies.

But not this kid!  I’m living life like a man running down the road with his pants on fire toward the next adventure.   I’m maintaining my attitude like a teenager.  I’m eating to keep slim, trim, and a lean athletic machine.  While I’m on this planet, I’m am squeezing everything out of every day I’m alive.

This life provides us with a one-time amazing opportunity to taste anything and everything on Earth.  Fortunately, we live in a country that offers anyone just about everything to live his or her dreams.

Thus, I aim to keep my mind working at full bore.  In order to keep my mind sharp, I found out about a ton of foods and nutrients that keep the mind sharp.  Below, please enjoy the 7 Top Foods for Brain Power:

Additionally, it’s really important to exercise six days a week for 1.5 to 2.00 hours.  Aerobics!  You want to force fresh blood into the brain to feed your mind with energy, food, oxygen and cleanse it out.  I swim ½ mile every day, six days a week.  I run on the elliptical track for 20 minutes and 20 minutes on the stationary bicycle.  Additionally, I push weights for 45 minutes. I also do 100 sit ups every day.  After the workout, I hot tub it and pray-meditate.  I take a shower, dress and go home to work. Why do I enjoy the time to exercise? I don’t watch 4.1 hours of TV daily.

Additionally, I’ve been taking a number of supplements to make my brain’s neural net and synapses fire efficiently. You can look up many brain supplements at Natural Grocers and the Internet.

Secondly, what you eat makes a HUGE difference in keeping your mental acuity.  Which would you rather eat for breakfast:  bacon, eggs, sausage and greasy hash browns along with, toast and butter?   Or, oatmeal, blue berries, bananas, walnuts, and wheat toast with apple butter?  For lunch: a ham and cheese sandwich?  Or, mixed greens salad with kale, chard, spinach and cabbage, with radish, beets, carrots, onions and olives?  For dinner: steak, roast, pork chops, greasy potatoes with gravy, fried chicken, sour cream and finish off with ice cream? Or, salmon, broccoli, baked potato with lime juice, olive oil-salad, and fruit salad for desert?  Make sure everything you eat: organic and non-GMO.

One way of eating will slog your brain down and the other will fire-up your brain cells for your highest and best mental health.  The choice: yours every day of the week!

Additionally, all of us baby boomers suffer from different levels of lead, mercury, arsenic and cadmium metals, along with other heavy metals in our blood and tissue.  Those metals destroy our brain cells.  You can utilize different cleansing techniques to “chelate” those foreign metals out of your body.

Confused?  You might try several books on how to clean your body and brain up for maximum health:  Grain Brain: Whole Life Plan by David Perlmutter.  He really gives you all the information you need to renew your mental and physical health.

You might also try the “Brain Games” on the Internet.  It stimulates your brain in an intriguing manner:  Luminosity.  My wife Sandi plays it every day.  She loves the challenge and it makes her brain work.

My brain?  After a year of regular aerobic exercise, highly disciplined eating style, and those “7 Foods for Your Brain”, I’m not searching for words any more.  You can do the same for your brain and remain a vibrant, highly articulate and healthy person.

Experts tell us that the major food chains in America offer 60,000 food items for Americans to feed their families. The same experts tell us that 59,000 of those packaged, processed, chemicalized, hydrolyzed, preserved and sugared-to-death foodstuffs create horrific health consequences to all of us.

Today, seven out of 10 Americans suffer 30 to 50 pounds overweight bodies, and half of those folks register grossly obese bodies.  Ten-year-old children walk about with 50-year-old pot bellies.  Childhood diabetes and high blood pressure skyrocket from poor eating habits created by their parents.

Because of such weight problems, heart disease kills millions of men and women.  Diabetes rages across the country, killing millions over the years.  Cancer rains down death like Hurricane Katrina.

While the American Medical Association, along with Big Pharmaceuticals attempt to prescribe chemical solutions, we’re all at risk every time we walk into a major food chain.

The Environmental Working Group showed that 2,000 untested chemicals inhabit conventional packaged foods.

If we buy hot dogs, we eat nitrates, which damage our bodies.  If we eat pepperoni pizza, we consume a chemical bath.  If we drink diet soda, we ingest aspartame, sucralose and other synthetic sugars that wreak havoc on our livers and entire bodies.  Red meats, raised in stock yards where beef cows, pigs and chickens, live on top of their own dung and urine. They eat GMO corn products, which prove to be totally against their normal intake of grass, and worse, the big beef industry injects or feeds 9 different chemicals into those cows—bacitracin, growth hormones, anti-biotics, etc.

In packaged foods, we consume sodium nitrates, sulfuric acid, polypropylene, bisphenol A, and dozens of other chemicals.  Then come the dyes.  Fruit Loop cereal feeds your child red, blue, green, yellow, gold, pink and chartreuse dyes that must be filtered by your child’s liver.

Cereals and sugar: Since 1945, Gerber’s Baby Foods laced your child’s vegetables with sugar to create an entire generation of sugar addicts.  I’m one of them as I fight my sugar urge 24/7.    Beyond that, Snickers candy bars, Gummy Bears and another 100 different sugary energy bars await your taste buds without mercy—at the checkout stand, or, point of purchase.

Soda Pop and sugar:  Coke, Pepsi, Monster Drinks, Mt. Dew and all the rest—deadly to your health.  You see thousands of ads showing athletes guzzling Mt. Dew, Coke and Pepsi. Red Bull and Monster drinks kill teens with overdoses of caffeine and other stimulants.  They never tell you about the dental cavities, high blood pressure from the caffeine, premature ventricle contractions caused in your heart by the caffeine, or the microscopic hemorrhages in your stomach caused by soda pop.  Studies show soda pop to be a major contributor to heart disease.

Nonetheless, those junk drinks own the sugar addicted public.

At fast food joints like Wendy’s, McDonald’s, Burger King, White Knight and the rest of them: they feed you mono sodium glutamate (MSG).  It’s an ‘excito toxin’ that causes you to suffer never-ending hunger. So, after one Big Mac, you face hunger pains for another Big Mac with double the fries and another Coke. Talk about an “obesity epidemic” created by CEO’s who care only for money and nothing for your health.

Today, we find glyphosates, an insecticide sprayed on 90 percent of our crops, now imbedded in women’s breast milk, wines and just about everything in the food chain. Thank you, Monsanto-Bayer, for your deadly Roundup weed killer and “RoundUp Ready” GMO crops.  Talk about a poison bath on your foods!

How much poison in our foods?  “It really depends on what level of risk consumers are comfortable with,” says Dawn Undurraga, a nutritionist at EWG and co-author of the study. “The more we learn about what is in conventional foods, the more evidence for concern we accumulate.”

Americans should be able to trust the Food and Drug Administration to keep us safe from unscrupulous CEO’s who gun for profits over integrity.  But of course, money keeps too many people silent.

Last year, a study showed that 70 percent, yes, that’s correct, 70 percent of conventionally grown produce exposed pesticide contamination. That means you’re poisoning your kids by shopping at your local grocery store.

Last year, I bought a jar of Sunsweet Prunes, only to find them soaked in “high fructose corn syrup” which is a synthetic sugar made out of GMO corn.  It’s dangerous. It addicts you. Then, it fattens you.

I called Sunsweet and talked to a representative who said he would take it to their health officials. I even wrote a letter to follow up.  In order to write this expose’ column, I walked into my local Walmart and King Soopers to find the same jar on the shelves a year later with the same high fructose corn syrup offered in the prunes. I called them again and demanded they soak their prunes in prune juice.  What do you think I will find a year from now as to Sunsweet Prunes in a jar?  Of course, high fructose corn syrup!

What that means:  these big food giants don’t really care about your health or the health of your children.  If you look at all the packaged foods out there such as easy dinners, frozen goods, energy bars, energy drinks and anything packaged—you will see names you can’t spell, pronounce or find in a dictionary.  They feed you chemicals.

What have my wife and I done to save and preserve our health?  We eat all natural, non-GMO, certified organic fruits, vegetables and food products. We READ the contents of everything we buy. We shop at Natural Grocers. We used to shop at Whole Foods, but their new CEO Jeff Bezos thinks GMO foods fit the bill for healthy foods.  NOT!  We no longer support Whole Foods because of his lack of common sense and science.

At your own grocery, demand certified organic produce.  Demand healthy food products from responsible food manufacturers. They are out there and we all need to support them.

While growing up, my father took us camping all over the United States and abroad.  As a U.S. Marine, he liked things neat and clean.  If he found litter in a campground or in the woods on a backpack trip, he directed us to pick it up and take it home with us.

He said, “Son, always leave a place nicer than you found it.  That way, you will encourage others to be more respectful of the Natural World.  Besides, you wouldn’t want anyone coming into your room and tossing trash on your floor, would you?”

“I got it dad,” I said.

(Frosty Wooldridge picking up trash, eastbound rest area, I-70, west of Denver by 35 miles. Two bags a week in the summer right under the sign: $1000 fine for littering.)

Over the past 65 years of being old enough to pick up trash from the age of seven, I have picked up over 1,000,000 pieces of litter on six continents.  I’ve joined and/or organized litter pick-ups of rivers, lakes, streams, baseball and football stands, wilderness areas, oceans and much more.  I even picked trash out of the Mississippi River when I canoed it 20 years ago.  I’ve scuba dived all of the oceans of the world to pick up a maddening amount of plastic trash tossed by millions of people and ships.

Sometimes it feels like my father cursed me because I find no end to the amount of trash people toss onto the landscape, or rivers, or lakes, or into the oceans.

Most people think of poor people tossing their trash into their own streets in large cities like Chicago, LA or Detroit.  Yes, they do, and, in fact, they wallow in it, walk by it, but never consider picking up their communities.  Trash becomes part of their landscape in their minds and communities.  It’s the same all over the world.

You might think that middle-Americans would maintain their yards, farms and parks by keeping them pristine.  You would be wrong.  You might think that high-class college students who attend top universities would never think of throwing litter onto the school grounds.

At Michigan State University, my college, they hire over 10 different grounds keepers to pick up trash 24/7.  It’s the same at most other colleges.  We’ve created generations of fast-food litter-bugs.  Last spring, students attended an “Earth Day” celebration on a beach off New Jersey-New York only to leave huge mounds of trash for others to pick up.

What accelerated the lack of respect for the land?  Answer: fast food from McDonald’s to Pizza Hut to Little Caesars to Burger King.  Secondly, really poor parenting.  Additionally, 50 percent divorce rates might have something to do with kids being confused, hurt and irresponsible.

One of the things that bothers me: only around 20 percent of Americans toss their trash out of cars, out of trucks, and out of boats.  But most people will walk by trash and never stoop down to pick it up, even in the nicest natural settings.

Name the worst culprits:  truck drivers and cigarette smokers; teenage kids with fast-food trash too lazy to place it in a trash can; farmers who toss their trash in gullies and into the woods along with farm equipment; ocean-going ships that carry tourists to military ships that toss it all off the fantail; and dozens more too numerous to list.

I pick up trash weekly on I-70 up in the mountains of Colorado. I always come away after an hour with two bags of trash weekly on Exit 254 up ramps and down ramps.  Truckers toss 1-gallon milk jugs filled-up with their pee.  They empty their ashtrays on the shoulder into the grass.  Women toss their soiled baby diapers out of their cars and into the grass or leave it all on the pavement.

And smokers! Or, tobacco chewers. What a bunch of bums!  Cigarette butts create the most hazardous litter on the planet.  I wish cancer would catch up to them faster to stop them from smoking.  If smoking killed you within two years with lung cancer, people would stop or never start. But instead, 30 to 40 years in the future gives smoker’s a sense of safety.

What have I found while picking up trash?  I’ve picked up everything from books, jewelry, pumpkins, box of raw chicken carcasses, drugs, hundreds of thousands of beer cans and whiskey bottles, clothing, soiled baby diapers, human waste with toilet paper (used my rubber gloves and pooper scooper), signs, shoes, bras, panties, flags, condoms, shooters, plastic, needles, glass, chains and a hundred other items.

Why do people toss their trash?  Conservationist Aldo Leopold said, “We abuse land because we regard it as a commodity belonging to us. When we see land as a community to which we belong, we may begin to use it with love and respect.”

In reality, we do not own the land. We’re merely visitors for 70 to 80 years.  And, the animals don’t litter the land; we do.  As to our oceans, within 60 years, we’ve tossed 5.5 trillion pieces of plastic into the oceans. I suggest at least another 5.5 trillion in cans and bottles have been tossed into the oceans.  My scuba diving exploits around the planet attest to that environmental nightmare.  In less than a century, we’ve made a holy-hell mess out of this planet.

If you travel through India, Sao Paulo, Paris, Cusco, LA, NYC, Mexico City—you cannot help but walk away shaking your head at the barbaric behavior of humans on their planet home.

Since I’ve bicycled across America 15 times and across six continents in the past 44 years, I witnessed the land being trashed at 12 miles per hour.  Farmers toss their tractors, combines and farm equipment into fields to rot and rust for the next 10 million years.  I’ve seen motor homes and trailers abandoned all over the USA.

And, for the most part, very few Americans care enough to act to stop it or pick it up.  So, thousands more of us litter picker-uppers will keep picking it up, but we will never catch up.

It’s a very sad commentary on our country and I don’t see it changing for the better.

What would help?

1. 25 cent deposit return laws on all containers, all plastic sold from mercantile stores.
2. Massive recycling of all farm equipment, trailers and motorhomes left strewn about the country.
3. Education of our children about the importance of respecting Mother Nature and the Natural World.

“Immigration is a form of war in which the violence is delayed.” —Martin Van Crevald

This week, movie theaters opened with one of the most epic sea battles of World War II:  Midway.  It’s a heart wrenching movie depicting the lives of men fighting off a carrier and flying into Japanese anti-aircraft guns.  It’s about the brutality of war.  It’s about them killing us and us killing them.  We turned the tide against Japan at Midway.

As a service brat of a United States Marine who served in the Marshall Islands during WWII, I walked into the movie with dread.  I lived on Navy bases; I lived on Marine bases and I lived the military life my first 18 years.  It gets into your gut as the son of a U.S. Marine.  You feel pride and patriotism like few others.

You stop and stand for the flag being lowered at dusk.  You place your hand over your heart.  You stand at ball games while singing the National Anthem. When I entered Boot Camp at Fort Benning, Georgia in 1968, I crawled through the mud, muck, chiggers, gnats and ticks.  I learned what every combat soldier faced from the Revolutionary War all the way to Vietnam.  War proves itself a dirty, nasty, God-forsaken, and a violent expression of animal nature.  And yet, humans war against each other every day on this planet.

We won WWII.   We pulled out of Vietnam after losing 58,220 men and 150,000 wounded.  That war started the drug invasion of America that has caused thousands of deaths and ruined families.  For the past 18 years, we’ve lost Afghanistan and Iraq—but our Congress keeps funding those ridiculous wars.  Even if we won, we lost.  We lost young kids and $6 trillion.  If you count the 6,500-war dead, it’s painful. If you count the 70,000 suicides from active duty and veterans—it’s totally insane why Congress funds those wars that accomplish nothing.

What makes this column so poignant?  I’m writing it on Veteran’s Day 2019.  This day commemorates the incredible sacrifices of our men and women from Valley Forge to Afghanistan-Iraq.  Yet, we’re being betrayed by our own congressional leaders and presidents as to securing our borders as a sovereign nation, culture, language and ethos.

The Single Most Important War We Are Losing: Our Borders

Sobering fact: the one greatest war in our nation’s history—we’re losing —the legal and illegal immigrant invasion of our country.  That’s the one war that eventually will kill, and in fact, is killing our country at this moment in history.

This ongoing, insidious and complete disregard for our borders undermines our way of life, our culture, our language, our heritage and our future.

Our own leaders facilitate it from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) to Senate Majority leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) to all the senators and House members who sit by watching the invasion with passive denial.

Our own major corporations like Marriott Hotels, McDonalds, Hormel Foods, Tyson Chicken, Monfort, Holiday Inn, Chipotle’s and dozens of others employ illegal migrants by the millions. And they grease the hands of Congress to make sure our laws never see enforcement.  Talking about our own citizen cutting our own citizens’ throats!

The leaders of Congress encourage open borders that allowed into our country over 1.1 million illegal immigrants in 2019. (Source: US Border Patrol, “Illegal Entries) Over 25 million illegals according to the Yale Report of 2018.  They allowed over $150 billion in drugs to cross our borders by not doing anything to stop it. (Source: www.Rand.org) They twiddle their thumbs as 300,000 pregnant women violate our borders annually to birth their baby on American soil—to gain a free ride paid for by you. (Source: US Border Patrol)  Entire “birth tourism” websites facilitate pregnant women from India, China, Mexico, Brazil, and dozens of other countries to cheat the American people as to citizenship.   Congress gives a free ride to 50,000 ‘Diversity Visa” recipients unqualified for anything, annually who enjoy a free ride once onto our shores. Oh, it’s not free! You pay for them.

Both legal and illegal immigrants send $150 billion back to their home countries annually.  (Source: www.FAIRUS.org)   You, the American taxpayer shell out $113 billion annually across 15 federal agencies to educate illegals’ kids, medical care, and feed them in school K-12.  (Source: www.FAIRUS.org)

In 2019, our 125,000 Somalian refugees in Minneapolis, MN, discovered how to defraud EBT cards and Cash Welfare handouts to swindle the American taxpayers out of $100 million.  They flew it back to Africa in suitcases while you paid their airline tickets.  Millions of refugees, now at 93 percent, remain on welfare as a lifestyle. You pay for it.  Congress facilitates it.

MS-13 gangs thrive with their drug distribution networks because your Senators and House member fail to do anything to secure the borders.  Result: drug addiction deaths accelerate dramatically annually.

Along this treacherous path, Congress saturates America with millions of incompatible refugees, legal immigrants and jihadists that proclaim their intentions NOT to subscribe to our culture, language and national ethos.

“Most non-terrorist Muslims cringe when Muslim leaders speak, but the non-terrorists keep quiet lest they get their throats cut by “peaceful Muslims.” Such professing Muslims are not committed Muslims. Not only do true Muslims advocate terror, they clearly have plans to make America a Muslim nation and will use terror if necessary! They plan to conquer America by sperm, speech, and sword. They will use one or all to accomplish their goal—world caliphate!” Boyd

What exactly will happen to us if we allow Congress to force us into accepting another 110 million legal immigrants and upwards of another 30 to 50 million illegal migrants?

This will happen to us for starters:  “Diversity within a nation destroys unity and leads to civil wars,” said social scientist Garret Hardin. “Immigration, a benefit during the youth of a nation, can act as a disease in its mature state. Too much internal diversity in large nations has led to violence and disintegration. We are now in the process of destabilizing our own country. The magic words of destabilizers are ‘diversity’ and ‘multiculturalism’.”

Finally, what about our environment and quality of life?  Can you imagine what another 110 million foreigners means to our national character?  Our English language?  Our Constitution? Our ability to water, feed ourselves and maintain energy to live?

One writer on FB said, “If you want to experience a front row seat on the loss of the core American identity, I recommend taking a ride on public transportation in any major metropolitan area, especially New York City, Detroit, Miami, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, etc. The lack of intelligible English spoken in public spaces will truly astound you.
Former MLB pitcher John Rocker knew something was up when commenting about riding on the 7 Train to Shea Stadium in Queens, NYC twenty years ago.”

Once you lose the cohesive glue of a common language and culture, you lose your country.  That’s what’s coming and that’s the final war we must win, or we will simply lose our country.  No if’s, and’s or but’s.

Call your senators and House rep:  1 202 224 3121 or 1 888 995 2086. Demand a stop to all immigration.

• We need to rescind the 1965 Immigration Reform Act. Simply stop all immigration.
• If that sounds too harsh, how about “Egress Equals Ingress”?  If 50,000 people leave the USA in a year, we import 50,000 with skills and viable abilities to remain off welfare, and WANT to become Americans.
• Stop all 300,000 anchor babies annually by amending the 14^th Amendment to NOT give instant birthright citizenship to pregnant illegal alien mothers. It’s costing us trillions of dollars.
• Stop 50,000 Diversity Visas given out each year.  We cannot save the world, but we can destroy our country.
• Stop all visas overstays with biometric tracking technology.
• Stop all employers of illegal aliens by enforcing our laws on the books.
• Mandate E-Verify for all new employees with prohibitive fines and jail time for employers who cheat.

This past week, Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau proclaimed that his country no longer enjoys a “core identity.”  With his father’s quest to multiculturalize Canada away from being Canadian, the son continues to immigrate our northern neighbor into a quagmire of cultures, languages and violent religions.   He’s succeeding, too.

Canada’s large cities such as Vancouver no longer feature the Canadian flag.  The Chinese dominate that city via numbers, culture and language.  It’s truly no longer a Canadian city.  The Chinese ran out the Canadians in the past 30 years via massive chain-migration. I wouldn’t put it past them to secede from Canada and make BC a Chinese state, which will import millions of Chinese.

If you visit Ottawa or Montreal, you see more people from other countries than Canadians.  You hear more languages than English or French.  You see that none of those immigrants assimilate into their new country, but they create replicas of their own countries known as “parallel societies.”

Ironically, you see those same immigrants, especially from the Middle East, feeding at the welfare trough paid for by what remains of Canadian workers.

Since Canada no longer enjoys a “core identity” and Trudeau expects to import another 10 million third world immigrants, will Canada be able to hold itself at its center, and remain a viable civilization?   It already features “honor killings, female genital mutilation, de facto Sharia Law” and a host of foreign cultures too ugly to describe.

The same loss of “core identity” rampages across Europe.  You can no longer consider London, England a British city or a British society.  Same with Paris, France; Munich, Germany; Amsterdam, Holland; Oslo, Norway; Brussels, Belgium; and most other major cities overwhelmed by immigration from Africa and the Middle East.  Read: The Strange Death of Europe by Douglas Murray.

If you look at what’s happening to the United States, the same cultural nightmare rampages across America 24/7.  We’ve got racial conflict every single newscast of the year.  We’ve got Muslims creating “parallel societies” in New York City, Minneapolis and Detroit, along with Miami and Freemont, California.  Do our four million Muslim immigrants identify as Americans?  Not a chance!  They don’t fly Old Glory anywhere in the “separate societies” where they dominate. They vote into office only officials who promise to install Sharia Law, which by the way, contradicts every freedom we enjoy in America: women’s rights, free speech, animal rights, choice of religion, choice of dress, choice of marriage partner, choice of no religion, voting rights, and choice of food.

“Islam isn’t in America to be equal to any faith, but to become dominant. The Qur’an should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on Earth.” Omar Ahmed, director of Council on American Islamic Relations.

We’ve got in excess of 20 million illegal Mexicans speaking only their languages while they utilize our welfare, food stamps and free schooling for their kids with welfare lunches, paid for by your tax dollars.  Do they identify as Americans?  Dream on.

Even the Chinese form their own cities in California, with their own Chinese signs and language, as well as their own shops.  If you ride south of San Francisco, you will see totally dominated Chinese cities. I did last summer, and I was stunned at how “Un-American” their stances.

Again, we’re about to add 110 million immigrants from 196 different countries by 2050—a scant 31 years from now.  They bring 196 different world views, cultures, religions and languages.

Anybody with a brain over room temperate think we will survive such an onslaught?

“Immigrants devoted to their own cultures and religions are not influenced by the secular politically correct façade that dominates academia, news-media, entertainment, education, religious and political thinking today,” said James Walsh, former Associate General Counsel of the United States Immigration and Naturalization Service. “They claim the right not to assimilate, and the day is coming when the question will be how can the United States regulate the defiantly unassimilated cultures, religions and mores of foreign lands?  Such immigrants say their traditions trump the U.S. legal system.  Balkanization of the United States has begun.”

Exactly how will America remain American once that next 110 million immigrants lands on our shores?  Do you think we will survive it culturally? Linguistically?  As to our identity?  Do you? If you do, you’re smokin’ some funny weed.

Think again. I’ve traveled through all those cities not only here, but in Canada this summer, and in Europe.

Once you lose your core identity as a country; your country cannot survive.  And, you can’t get your successful ethos back. A country like India lurches into each day as a mass of overpopulated, illiterate, unhealthy, conflicted citizens who don’t know their identity, what culture or where they stand. That’s why they flee to America. They’ve landed in a time and place out of their understanding. They enclave.  Do you think any of the Somalians from Africa care about Thomas Jefferson, our Constitution or women’s rights?  Does a Muslim care about the Bill of Rights or women’s rights?  Oh gees!

Then, there’s the accelerating nightmare of feeding, educating, finding jobs in a robotic world, keeping environmentally viable—with another 110,000,000 (million) more people.  Think we’re going to succeed?  Think again.

I don’t know about you—nonetheless, if we hope to survive this nightmare descending upon our civilization, we need to stop it while we still stand a chance.

• We need to rescind the 1965 Immigration Reform Act. Simply stop all immigration.
• If that sounds too harsh, how about “Egress Equals Ingress”?  If 50,000 people leave the USA in a year, we import 50,000 with skills and viable abilities to remain off welfare.
• Stop all 300,000 anchor babies annually by amending the 14^th Amendment to NOT give instant birthright citizenship to pregnant illegal alien mothers. It’s costing us trillions of dollars.
• Stop 50,000 Diversity Visas given out each year.  We cannot save the world, but we can destroy our country.
• Stop all visas overstays with biometric tracking technology.
• Stop all employers of illegal aliens by enforcing our laws on the books.
• Mandate E-Verify for all new employees with prohibitive fines and jail time for employers who cheat.

If don’t get our elected officials to act on our behalf, we will become like Canada and Europe:  No More American Identity.

We, the American people, pay our House and Senate members huge salaries to make our country work.  Starting pay runs $174,000.00 for a bartender voted into the House of Representatives with virtually no qualifications, whatsoever.  We pay an anti-American Somalian refugee voted into the House, with no qualifications, a whopping $174,000.00 to disparage our country at every chance she gets in front of the cameras.  In fact, she represents a district where ISIS recruiters obtain the most Somalian jihadists out of America to fight in the Middle East and Africa for their cause.

For all the money we pay veteran lawmakers like Charles Schumer of New York and Nancy Pelosi of California—we’re getting cheated, gipped and swindled.  Maxine Waters must be the biggest gip in all of history.  She’s done nothing during her tenure in office.  In fact, MOST of the House of Representatives and the U.S. Senators refuse to uphold their oaths of office.  MOST of them don’t serve the American people.  If they did, they would solve our basic problems within weeks by passing laws to correct the situations we face.

As to our porous borders:  Members of the House of Representatives continue sitting on a bill that would force employers to “E-Verify” every person who works for them.   It would stop the invasion of illegals who could not obtain jobs because they couldn’t pass the E-Verify mandate.

Instead, House leaders for the past 30 years squashed that bill and they make sure it never passes: from John Boehner to Paul Ryan to Nancy Pelosi.  They were, and they are corrupt.  It’s ironic that they voted to impeach Trump, when they, in fact, cornered the market on corruption through their storied corrupt careers in Congress.

As to building a wall against Mexico’s invasion:  total waste of time and money.  What’s really happening, 40 percent of all illegals arrive on legal visas, and then, overstay and melt into America.  Congress refuses to create a tracking system to arrest and/or create a deposit-return that would stop such lawlessness.  None of our Congressional Critters will enforce US Code 8, Section 1324 that mandates a $2,000.00 fine per illegal and up to five years in prison for anyone housing, transporting or employing illegal aliens.  In other words, your own senators and House members are screwing you while you pay them huge salaries. And then, you pay for illegals’ health care, taxes, schooling for their kids and much more.

Problem: annually, 300,000 illegal, pregnant women arrive with their new ‘anchor baby’ to drop on US soil.  It’s a total usurpation of the 14^th Amendment, but NONE of those 535 elected DC reps will introduce and pass a bill that will stop that practice.  We’re the last country on the planet to allow it. Ireland stopped it 10 years ago. It costs us trillions of dollars.

Problem:  Monsanto-Bayer kills us with Roundup, glyphosates, and GMO’s in our food chain—but they grease the hands of our career, corrupt politicians, so they never get those poisons out of the food chain. Thus, we suffer cancers, PD, MS, MD and a host of other neurological health consequences.

Silent problem: the CDC knows we’re importing dozens of third world diseases via the bodies of unchecked illegal aliens jumping our borders without papers, but it squashes any knowledge to the average American citizen.  Will the members of Congress do anything to stop it?  Not on your life!

Problem: who in their right mind would send our kids off to wars that lasted 18 years, yet accomplished nothing?  Answer: your two senators and House member.  All of those 535 lying, cheating and corrupt elected officials buckle under the power of money and the Military Industrial Complex.  Thus, over 6,500 kids lost their lives in Afghanistan and Iraq: for NOTHING, but to line a corporation’s pockets with money.  Over 70,000 suicides since 9/11 from active duty and veterans—who lost their minds in those two wars, and decided to kill themselves.  That’s on your two senators and House member.  Additionally, we shelled out $6 trillion for those two wars and counting.  At the same time, ‘they’ tell us that we’re keeping the Muslim jihadists from our shores. What a bunch of crap on a bun!  Hell, we’re importing terrorists into Minneapolis where Ilhan Omar leads them to undermine our Constitution, and the same with Rashida Tlaib in Detroit.

Problem: we’re paying billions of dollars if not into the trillions,  for millions of illegal aliens’ kids to attend school K through 12.  And, we pay for their breakfasts and lunches—while we must pay for our kids to attend school and eat lunch. At the same time, those illegals don’t pay taxes and send over $120 billion annually in cash transfers back to their home countries.  Yet, your Congressional  Critters let this travesty continue year after year, decade after decade.

Problem:  our U.S. Congress has legally imported more than 20 million third world immigrants in the past 20 years.  They allowed another 23 to 25 million illegal migrants as documented by the “Yale Report” of 2018.  Those immigrants created parallel societies in Miami, Detroit, Minneapolis, Houston and Los Angeles. They’re totally un-American with “honor killings” and female genital mutilation, along with multiple wives.  Our educational standards plummeted for our kids.  Our costs skyrocketed.  In Denver alone, we face 173 different languages.  Do you see any benefit to this situation?  Additionally, you pay $113,000,000,000.00 (billion) annually across 15 Federal agencies to maintain those unskilled, illiterate, illegal and un-American border jumpers. (Source: www.NumbersUSA.org, “Annual Cost of Illegals in America”)

I’m touching on the tip of the iceberg of what’s going on in our country.  We’ve got infrastructure of bridges and highways degrading into chaos. We’ve got inner cities with gangs, murderers and anarchy. A little Chicago girl goes “Trick or Treating” this past Halloween and ends up dead from gang gunfire.  We’ve got the poor shoplifting over $50 billion in mercantile goods annually.  You pay for that when you buy products legally.  How do you think Detroit fell? Chicago and Minneapolis follow Detroit.

We’ve got major air pollution, gridlocked cities, water shortages and over 1 million homeless people.  But we’re spending $4 billion a month in Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan and other countries.  We pay billions and trillions to maintain 700 bases in 80 countries around the world.

We’re $22 trillion in national debt.  That debt will end in collapse of our civilization; that in turn, will end in anarchy at some point.

And yet, a bunch of really stupid citizens re-elect Charles Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, Maxine Waters, John Lewis and hundreds of corrupt politicians back into office every two and six years.

If we continue on this path, we’re not going to make it to 2050.

This past week, a high school classmate of mine got rear ended by a lady texting at 70 miles per hour. She killed my classmate and two of his friends landed in the hospital with critical injuries.

This summer, on my 40-state journey around the United States, I witnessed women, men and teens texting by the thousands. They texted racing down the highway, in gridlock traffic, and at stop lights.  I saw a school bus driver texting driving down the road, I-70 in Denver, Colorado.  I reported her. My wife witnessed event.  I gave the bus number, license plate, Jefferson County Schools, time of day, and the route number.  They said I should have taken a picture of her while I was riding my motorcycle.

“You want me to take a picture with my cell phone while I’m driving my bike to prove that she was texting?” I gasped.  “It’s against the law!”

“If you don’t have a picture, we can’t follow up on her,” the lady dispatch officer said.

Good grief!  We need a national discussion concerning cell phone texting. It’s killing a lot of people and injuring hundreds of thousands.

“The National Safety Council reports that cell phone use while driving leads to 1.6 million crashes each year. Nearly 390,000 injuries occur each year from accidents caused by texting while driving. 1 out of every 4 car accidents in the United States is caused by texting and driving.”

Last year, 2018, 4,647 needless deaths because drivers of all ages texted their friends about inane topics while driving at 40, 50, 60, and 70 miles per hour.

“With the latest statistics available as of 2018, according to statistics compiled by the Department of Transportation, 4,647 people died and another 391,000 were injured in motor vehicle crashes caused by drivers who were distracted because they were texting or using cell phones.”

Hello America!  You think we face an opioid epidemic?  Steve Jobs and the tech industry created a cell phone addiction epidemic leaving hundreds of thousands of cell phone users, and, innocent drivers at risk of getting killed and/or maimed.

• Almost 390,000 injuries occur annually in the US due to texting while driving.

• Driving while texting causes 1.6 million car accidents in the US every year.

• 21% of US drivers reported sending emails or text messages while on the road.
• 14% of all fatal crashes in the US involved the use of a cell phone.

Have you ever attended a funeral of a friend or family member who died because some idiot texted while driving at some terrific speed, only to crash into your loved ones?

Not only drivers:

• The rate of pedestrian deaths rose by 27% percent from 2007 to 2017.

This can happen when pedestrians talk on their cell phones when crossing the road. According to statistics, more than 80% of drivers saw pedestrians absorbed by their phones while crossing the street.

• 11 Teenagers die every day because of texting and driving. 

The distracted driving and texting stats don’t favor young drivers. Overall, this demographic is 400% more likely to be involved in a car accident while texting and driving compared to more experienced drivers. (Source: IceBike.com)

How would you like to be one of the fathers or mothers who attends your own child’s funeral because someone texted him or her to death?

• Distracted driving causes 35% more injuries than drunk driving.

According to distracted driving stats from 2015 alone, driving while using a cell phone caused 391,000 injuries while driving under the influence of alcohol caused 290,000 injuries.

(Source: TheZebra.com)

We desperately need a national conversation-debate on how to stop people from texting while driving.  THAT much carnage on our highways, especially when it’s totally avoidable, needs to be addressed.

My solution:  when you earn a driver’s license or renew it, you sign a piece of paper that you will not drink and drive, or text and drive.  If you should break your sworn promise, you lose your license for five years the first time and you lose it for life the second time you’re caught.  You pay a $20,000.00 fine and your car is impounded for five years. You must pay for all towing and impound fees, or your car will be sold at auction.

This texting and driving, and drinking and driving can be stopped when we make the  law SO prohibitive that you would have to be a mental moron to commit the crime.  But if you did, you’re off the road without a license, and/or you’re in jail.

It’s time to step up and step into this national outrage. Talk to your state representatives, federal senators and House members. Make them act or vote them out for someone who will act.

As for me, I’m leaving for my classmate’s funeral this weekend. Makes me sick to my stomach, because it could have been my funeral or my wife’s or my kids.  It could be your kids or spouse.  For certain, all those fatalities are someone’s family members.

Writer John Kaminski said, “If we keep importing minorities,  we will irreversibly step down the stairway to our own destruction.”

By 2042, at current legal and illegal immigration rates, Mexicans, Latinos and Hispanics will become the new majority in America.  They bring their cultures that have failed them in Mexico and Central America. They bring their language that fails them as to progress, education and functioning governments.  They bring their religions, which mandate endless babies. Which, in turn, causes illiteracy from too many children and no way to educate them.

“When minorities rule, nations strangle and die,” said Kaminski.  “We see it happening today, all over the world. Worse than that, and something to worry about: when minorities become majorities, they generally kill off the previous owners.”

He continued, “To flood target nations with helpless imbeciles is the reverse of what usually happens. Typically, an invading power such as the East India Company was able to demand subservience because of its superior military might no matter how small its contingent of invaders. And it’s how Jewish strategists can rule countries today despite being a minuscule percentage of the population, because they control all nations’ money supply.”

Notice in America how we are controlled by the Military Industrial Complex.  Notice how multi-national corporations call all the shots.  Notice how huge percentages of minorities enjoy all the welfare, but refuse to participate in education and personal accountability.  A whopping 7 out of 10 Black children arrive without fathers and live with a single mother on welfare.   How many and how much longer can Americans pay for that birthing phenomenon?

“Either technique inevitably destroys the host country,” said Kaminski.  “The one we’re getting today is a deliberately planned Third World invasion which will produce an upsurge of random violence (a la South Africa) necessitating a police state crackdown in order to “restore order” (read: cancel all civil liberties) and “guarantee the safety of law-abiding citizens” (those who keep their mouths shut).

“The accelerated invasion of Third Worlders into the white countries of the Northern Hemisphere is obviously a strategy by the moneyed intelligentsia to keep the American public as feeble minded as possible in order to maximize profits from their various exploitation potential.”

One look at Minneapolis, Lewiston, Maine, Miami, LA and Detroit should scare the daylights out of every American.  They are NO LONGER American cities.  We’ve got 45 million foreign born in our country an tens of millions of them subsist on welfare. That’s your money.

Kaminski said, Simple math: take a 68 IQ Somali and mix him in with your average 93 IQ American and you get a country full of low-ball retards, sucking at the public trough and contributing nothing to the economy, just the way the Jews want it, a tried and true recipe for social disintegration. (Source for IQ’s per country: www.brainstate.org )

“This is the situation in the world today. That’s why all our politicians are plastic and either totally in hock to the Jews or not in office. I think that’s why Tulsi Gabbard was eliminated by the Democrats from their prospective presidential candidates.”

“This is our future, casting a giant black shadow as great as our final black shadow that haunts us all, yes, that one that is repressed, which by doing makes every answer we ever invented totally false,” said Kaminski.   “We now have white homosexuals and black Communists telling the rest of us “normal” folk how to run the country. Of minorities telling the majority what to do. It was a major mistake that we did not oppose this with every resource at our command, because now we have the tail clearly wagging the dog and our country going down the drain.”

Notice that most of Africa suffers from AIDS, Ebola, massive childbirth rates, and everyone’s starving.  It seems to be a popular meme among blacks these days that they are “owed” reparations for the indignities their ancestors endured in the past. Yet in all these “Democratic” schemes there is never a mention of how it was whites who saved so many Africans from themselves from a continent that has proven itself unable to develop civilized societies, or in some cases, unable to refrain from eating each other for dinner.

“Does anybody remember why this country was founded — freedom from the unfeeling acts of a foreign government controlling our lives,” said Kaminski.  “Yes, I know, that is what the Indians told our forefathers, and what the Palestinians tell us today about the homicidal, U.S. backed, Israelis. Since we are saying this today, does that mean the fate of all Americans is destined to mirror that of the American Indians and Palestinians? Only you get to decide.”

Dear Fellow American: our Congress remains on schedule to import another 110 million minorities from over 100 third world countries. If they succeed within the next 30 years, do you think our country, and/or your children stand a chance at survival?

John Kaminski is a writer who lives on the Gulf Coast of Florida, constantly trying to figure out why we are destroying ourselves, and pinpointing a corrupt belief system as the engine of our demise.

Within the last 120 years, humans jumped from horse and buggies to rockets to Mars.  Technology today drives everything we do, say, think and feel.

At first, technology engineered the automobile to give us speed to travel, then the phone to give communication over distances, and for the free spirits, airplanes gave us flight.  Soon after, rockets to the moon, Mars and beyond.

In the last month, Sarah, a high school girl from Idaho asked me to write about the negative aspects of advanced technology.  As I researched this column, it became dreadfully apparent that we do not control technology; it controls us.  And, it’s destroying the planet on which we live.

In the past, 70 years since WWII, technology has caused more harm, more danger, more death, more destruction and more contamination of this planet than ever in the history of the human race.  Additionally, it’s quickly driving us crazy emotionally, spiritually and socially.

Let start off with the obvious negatives of technology:

Since 1965, plastics overtook everything, and today, they pollute every piece of land, waterway and all the oceans around the world.  Plastics float and sink in our oceans to the tune of 5.5 trillion pieces. Humans add 2.5 million 24/7.  That technology kills millions of marine life and avian life around the planet 24/7.  Plastics now contaminate the tissue of ocean-going fish.  Worse, humans refuse to stop or do anything to change it or improve it.  Plastics will prove the worse invention for the Natural World ever invented by humans.

Since 1950, humans created and continue to create more than 70,000 chemicals that they inject into the air, land and water 24/7.  Point blank: we poison the nest that feeds us.  We poison the foods that nourish us. We poison everything on this planet.  Results range from bee colony collapse worldwide to accelerating cancers in humans around the globe.  We’ve got Big Pharma companies spreading opioids that kill hundreds of thousands and addict millions, but they continue to produce and distribute their poisons.

Since 1904, the automobile took over the planet as to carbon exhaust on the ground, in the air and underwater.  That technology slowly but surely strangles the planet’s ability to keep the oceans in PH balance, viable temperatures and workable living conditions for all marine life.  In other words, human technology puts all living creatures on this planet at risk.  Ultimately, it puts all humans at risk.

It is a fact that: whatever happens to plant and animal life on this planet, ultimately it will circle back on humanity.  At this point, technology that allows humans to multiply at terrific speeds as we grow from 7.6 billion to 10.1 billion by 2050.   We cause the extinction of over 100 species every single day of the year, i.e., 24/7.  The famous Harvard biology Edward O. Wilson said, “Humanity at the current extinction rates very well could kill off 1/3 of all animal life by 2050.”   It’s called the “Sixth Extinction Session.”  Because technology allows us to travel fast, spread our poisons and cut away rain forests at over an acre per second globally 24/7, the animals cannot adapt fast enough.  (Source: Animal Extinction rates by Dr. Norma Myers, Oxford University, UK, 40-year study)

Another nasty piece of technology: the microwave. It alters the foods that humans heat and then eat.  For the cruelty of some very sick humans, they use it to cook live animals, just for fun. While you might enjoy a hot meal in seconds, that food you eat destroys the bacterium in your stomach that keeps your body healthy.  More and more Americans suffer from gut issues because of the processed foods they eat and the microwaved foods they digest.

Another piece of technology: genetically modified organisms.  Monsanto and Bayer now poison the crops we eat with glyphosates, but also genetically modify plants and fish into different kinds of DNA not compatible with anything on this planet.  Monsanto infects the Natural World with GMO apples, soy, corn, fruits of all kinds, fish and vegetables.  Those companies directly poison and destroy the pollinator bees that make all life on this planet possible.   The CEO’s of those big corporations should be arrested, prosecuted and jailed for crimes against humanity and the Natural World. (this author’s opinion)

Negative Effects of Technology on Today’s Youth

Kid Sloxs said, “Today’s world is crammed with technology. Almost every family owns a computer, laptop, smartphone, tablet, television etc. All these make our lives easier. Originally created to serve faithfully to humanity, digital devices have also revealed their harmful impact on our lives. Many studies have concluded that our physical, social, and mental health suffers because of the excessive exposure to technology. Let’s discover the negative effects of technology on different aspects of our lives.”

The Smart Phone allows instant communication around the world, but it isolate and insulates countless millions of cell phone addicts that curl into its mesmerizing power to cut them off from social interaction.  NPR reported that teenagers in America text 3,300 times a month. That’s over 110 messages a day!  How on Earth can such addicted individuals learn social skills, study, eat, play and carry on normal life processes?  Answer: they don’t! They suffer from cell phone addiction.

Additionally, cell phone texting while driving causes over 4,000 deaths annually, second only to alcohol related driving deaths.

Smart phones cause total disruption in a classroom, so much so, kids fail to learn the basics of their educational building blocks.

Not to be outdone, cell phones cause millions of kids to live sedate lives slouched over in an easy chair which causes them to become obese.  It creeps up on them, and suddenly, they’re fat. Seven out of ten Americans suffer from some stage of obesity. That situation causes enormous health risks for a lifetime and destroys-costs our health care system billions of dollars.

Cell phones cause mental and emotional consequences surfacing across the modern world.  Those phones ‘rewire’ kids’ brains into unhealthy and oftentimes anti-social behaviors just now erupting around America and the world.

Cell phones have given rise to 43,000 child-teen pornography sites in the USA as of 2019.  That’s correct.  Our children face tremendously graphic and sickening sexually explicit websites that destroy any kind of emotional-sexual balance in their youthful lives.  I have no clue as to where that aspect of technology will end up.

So, as you can see, technology may have given us a washer-dryer, kitchen stove and air conditioning—but today, it’s giving us more consequences than anything that ever popped out of Pandora’s Box.

Part 2:  Other consequences of technology as to this planet, the future and human beings.

Every time I see a bumper sticker reading, “Support Our Troops”, I want to puke.  After 18 years fighting two wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, what do we have to show for it?  Answer: nothing but human misery!

I remember when I slogged through basic training at Fort Benning, Georgia, 1968, E-8-2, I figured I was a walking dead man.  My buddies wrote me from Nam with letters that said, “The Military Industrial Complex” that Ike talked about makes those CEO’s tons of money and gets us killed.  We’re not trying to win this war, just prolonging it.  Westmoreland is full of sh*t.”

In Iraq and Afghanistan, we’ve wasted $6,000,000,000,000.00 (trillion) on ‘forever wars’ that accomplished nothing but death and destruction of people and countries.  Presently, we spend over $4,000,000,000.00 (billion) monthly.  Note that we carry a $22 trillion national debt.

The MIC tells the press that the insurgents will resurge if we vacate the area.  But in fact, the Kurds, Sunnis and Shiites have fought each other for centuries. Once we leave, they will go after each other as usual.  Even Bin Laden told us in the 90’s to leave Muslim lands. The MIC didn’t listen.  They caused 9/11.  You piss off a Muslim, they will get back to you.  If you look at all Islamic countries, war remains a way of life over the centuries.

How about more than 6,000 combat deaths for our young men and women since 2001?  How about $6,000,000,000,000.00 (trillion) wasted on killing over 500,000 people in those two countries according to Newsweek Magazine (online)?  How about 20 suicides 24/7 throughout the year?  How about 60,000 suicides by our military veterans and active duty personnel in the last 10 years?

We killed Bin Laden in 2011.  We should have left the area the next week.  Instead, we’re still there getting our kids killed. The media tells us that we’re protecting America.  B*ll Sh*t!

“The new data was made available in the VA’s National Suicide Data Report, which found that, in 2016, 6,079 veterans ended their own lives compared to 6,281 in 2015. However, the suicide rate for veterans between the ages of 18 and 34 increased from 40.4 deaths per 100,000 veterans in 2015 to 45 in 2016. Notably, veterans below the age of 35 were the only age group that saw an increase in suicides from 2015 to 2016. The suicide rate was even greater for young female veterans.

“The report also noted that veterans accounted for 14 percent of all suicides in the U.S. in 2016, even though veterans account for only 8 percent of the national population, with more than 6,000 veterans committing suicide every year for the past decade. On a related note, the suicide rate in the U.S. has increased nationwide in recent years, rising nearly 30 percent since 1999.” (Source: VA Report.)

Why are we doing this to our youth?  What possible reason could make us war against two third-world countries for 18 years?  Who is responsible?  When will those wars stop?  Why do our representatives keep funding those wars?

The MIC created the lottery to stop the demonstrations against the Vietnam War.  Once half the kids knew they were safe, the unlucky few got drafted and killed in Vietnam until 1975.

Today, the MIC dreams up wars for future generations.  They created Korea, Vietnam, Desert Storm, Iraq, Syria and more to come.  Since it’s an all-volunteer army, less than 1 percent of our youth serve, and nobody cares.

What about tens of thousands of cases of Post-Traumatic Stress Syndrome?  What about thousands of kids coming back with plastic legs and steel-pincer arms and hands?  What about the drug addiction, broken families, and broken children.

One Army sergeant from Fort Carson, Colorado, south of me, died in Iraq after his 11^th deployment in 14 years. He left behind three kids and a wife, mostly not having seen them for most of their lives. And, now he’ll never see them.  That’s abuse of our finest and their families.

Who keeps those wars going?  The MIC enjoys a distinct group of men who make the meals, build the war planes, clothing, weapons, munitions, ships and thousands of war assistance materials.

As it stands today, we support military 800 bases in over 70 countries around the world.  It costs us countless trillions of dollars.  Over 450,000 military personnel man those bases.  What an incredible waste of money, manpower and greed!

Meanwhile, our inner cities rot with poverty. Chicago is a killing zone 24/7.  Schools suffer overwhelming undocumented youth using up our resources and gaining free meals while our youth cannot be educated with another 100 languages being spoken in their school systems. (In my city of Denver, 173 different languages in Denver Public Schools.)  And still, Congress floods us with another 100,000 legal immigrants every 30 days.  Our youth overdose to the tune of 13 every hour, 24/7.  We’ve got an opioid death crisis burgeoning across the country.  We’ve got racial unrest every day of the year, but we continue to import more foreigners from incompatible cultures to create even more cultural and racial unrest in the future.

“Immigration is a form of war in which the violence is delayed.” ~ Martin Van Crevald

Therefore, I ask the question: do you want to see another 18 years of foreign wars that kill off another 6,000 troops that you support, and another 60,000 veteran suicides?  Do you think we’ve accomplished anything of merit?  Do you think it will change the Middle East into a peaceful region?  Do you think Muslims like us over there in their lands with our “Satanist” culture?

If we don’t vacate, and now, we could see another 6,000 parents, and another 60,000 other parents get a call that their child died on the battle field or in the park where he or she took their own lives.

Do we want that for any U.S. military personnel in the future?

Apparently, we do because we’ve done nothing to stop it in 18 years, and as long as the people from the Military Industrial Complex have their way, expect another 18 years of wars with commensurate consequences.

If you live in or around a large American city like New York, Atlanta, Los Angeles, San Francisco or Houston—you find yourself in gridlock traffic six days a week.  While you sit fuming about your situation, you’re inhaling all those CO2 fumes by millions of cars spewing their own exhaust into the air.

As for this journalist, I live 30 miles away from Denver, but I see the infamous “Brown Cloud” covering the city like a dirty blanket—every day.  Every Denverite breathes that toxic cloud of chemicals with every breath.

The New York Times reported this week that CO2 emissions from car traffic remain “stubbornly high.”

No kidding Sherlock!  The USA burns 20 million barrels of oil 24/7.  Internationally, the human race burns 99 million barrels of oil 24/7.  It’s astounding to me that we find ways to pull that much oil out of the Earth every single day of the year. Worse, oil experts predict that China, by 2030, will burn 98 million barrels of oil 24/7, by itself.  By that time, we humans expect to add 1 billion more of ourselves.  It will be astounding how we can pull 200 million barrels of oil out of the planet every day of the year.

By 2050, 440 million Americans burning oil 24/7

Whether you appreciate catastrophic climate destabilization or not,  Jeremy Beck of www.NumbersUSA.com , said that “Transportation is the largest source of planet-warming greenhouse gases in the United States today. Explore this map from @nytclimate, which shows a year’s worth of CO2 from passenger and freight traffic on every road in the U.S.: https://t.co/3vL1qw3uvP.”

If we care about traffic emissions, however, we must pay attention to our individual consumption and the number of  individual consumers. The Census Bureau and Pew Research Center project the U.S. population to pass 440 million in the 2050’s, unless Congress significantly reduces immigration.

Will the addition of 110 million more Americans make it easier or more difficult to reduce our traffic emissions?

Unsurprisingly, the report dances around the elephant in the room, but discerning readers will quickly conclude that the sheer number of Americans on the roads or relying on trucks to deliver us goods is a major factor in our total emissions.

“The New York area, home to 20 million Americans, accounted for the largest share of driving-related CO2.”

“There it is. Despite its commitment to density and public transit, the New York metro area – not Dallas – is the biggest contributor to CO2 traffic emissions because it is the most populous metro area,” said Beck. “Not surprisingly, the five most populated metro areas are also the five biggest traffic-related contributors.”

1) New York (1)
2) Los Angeles (2)
3) Dallas-Fort Worth (4)
4) Houston (5)
5) Chicago (3)

The harsh reality remains: by 2050, the top 35 cities in the USA will double their populations at current immigration rates. Thus, the gridlock and exhaust cannot help but rise dramatically.

The numbers matter. The United States has the 3rd highest per capita emissions and the 3rd highest population in the world.

China and India, by contrast, rank 12th and 20th in per capita emissions, respectively. But they rank number 1 and number 2 in population and, as a result, fill out the top three carbon emitting countries along with the United States:

1) China
2) United States
3) India

Beck said, “With our “stubbornly high” emission rates, population growth in the United States has a greater impact than population growth in other nations. The last thing the world needs is 440 million Americans. If our politicians are serious about reducing our emissions, they must reduce immigration.”

This summer, I rode my motorcycle through 40 states and all four corners of the USA.  I can share with you by first-hand experience that the top 20 cities I visited continue growing, and their traffic gridlock stunned me beyond imagination.  My own city of Denver expects to grow by 2.5 million more people.  That means the “Brown Cloud” will double in thickness and toxicity.  That goes for those other top 35 cities.

All of this explodes because Congress pumps over 1.7 million legal and illegal immigrants into our country annually.  That’s over 130,000  immigrants every 30 days.  We’re on course to grow from 330 million to 440 million within 30 years.

The pressing question:  do you want your children to face such an ominous future?  Do you want them breathing such toxic air?  Do you think our country can sustain another 110 million people?  Will we survive as to quality of life and standard of living?  Will our environment allow us a quality life?

We desperately need a national conversation on what kind of a civilization we expect to bequeath to our children.  If we keep on this path, it will be an unbreathable nightmare of too many cars, smokestacks and carbon exhaust for anyone to breathe.

Solutions you might give to your two U.S. senators and House member:  Call your senators and House rep:  1 202 224 3121 or 1 888 995 2086.

1. Rescind 1965 Immigration Reform Act. We don’t need any more immigrants.
2. Enact a law to stop the 300,000 anchor baby births by illegal alien mothers who violated our borders.
3. Rescind the “Diversity Visa” immigration bill.  We don’t need another 50,000 diversity visas immigrants added to the 1.2 million already allowed into the country annually.
4. Create Visa biometrics to stop the 40 percent of illegals who overstay their visas into the USA. Arrest them and deport them.
5. If the total stoppage of immigration seems to harsh to you; we must press for an “Egress vs Ingress” bill.  If 50,000 people leave the country, we allow 50,000 merit-based immigrants to come into our country. Result: net gain of zero. A stable population equates to a sustainable future for Americans and all living creatures.

Part 1: A rational and reasonable voice with common-sense solutions

Right now, in America—Our U.S. Congress, Federal judges, Military Industrial Complex, Big Pharmaceuticals, American Cancer Society, American Medical Association—work against the American people.  Those huge entities cover-up, lie and obfuscate all their shenanigans that hurt the American people.

Those 535 Congressional critters continue to bicker, whine and complain about all the wrongs in America—but they don’t get together to hammer out solutions.

President Trump tweets his way into infamy, and gives very divisive speeches blaming  the democrats.  They, in turn, ran a two-year campaign to unseat him, when in fact, they knew within six months, no collusion and no laws broken.  Now, they push for impeachment over a phone call that the leader of Ukraine verified no pressure against him or his country.

In other words, the American people continue be smashed in the face with stress, anxiety and drama 24/7.  One week of CNN, FOX and the rest of them could well drive a person into chronic depression.

Along the way, Trump proves himself an egotistical if not maniacal blowhard.  He ramps up audiences to make sure everyone remains on different  and divisive pages.

Democrats and Republicans swore on the Bible to serve us.  Instead, they fill the military coffers with two 18 yearlong  ‘forever’ wars.  They’ve sacrificed over 6,000 young kids to nasty deaths, thousands more to amputated limbs, and countless more to PTSD.  According to the “Wounded Warriors Project”, 22 active and retired military personnel commit suicide 24/7.

And yet, the Military Industrial Complex, made up of enormous money and political powers—keep those futile and meaningless wars going as if they mean something.  Like Vietnam, those wars kill, but don’t accomplish anything.

Except for the stockholders, bankers and support companies in textiles, boots, weapons and war planes.

We stand eye-ball deep in $22 trillion debt, a fractured political system and the rich crush any chance of stopping those wars.  All the while, the democratic candidates offer blustery speeches with no content, because all of them belong to Congress as corrupt, career politicians, which remains the problem.

Hence, I have listened extensively to an amazing candidate named Marianne Williamson.  She receives little fanfare because the media actually ‘pick’ the top candidates with polling, but they don’t allow compelling platforms like Williamson’s and/or Tulsi Gabbard.

Fact: Americans face a “Titanic Boatload” of challenges that threaten us from under the surface, but the majority of reps in Congress, SO corrupt and SO unethical, refuse to work together in order to solve anything.  Thus, we keep paying while our country keeps sinking.

While I possess other political persuasions, Marianne Williamson presents some of the best solutions to our problems that I have heard in the past twenty years. She shoots straight. She offers brilliant strategies.  She talks common sense.  By the length of a football field, she stands out in front of Sanders, Warren, Harris, Mayor Pete and Booker.

Visit, Marianne2020.com for her platform of erudite solutions.  Witness  her on YouTube for some of the most reasonable choices with a non-combative and measured, as well as, intelligent demeanor.

Instead of waging two $6 trillion wars for 18 years in Afghanistan and Iraq, why not bring all our troops back home?  Let the Muslims fight amongst themselves like they have for 1,400 years.  Let them live and fight their way of life.

Instead, Williamson expects to create a cabinet post: U.S. Department of Peace.   Because, the fact remains:  our Department of Defense stands for war.  And, the Military Industrial Complex creates wars like Korea, Vietnam, Desert Storm, Afghanistan and Iraq.  The MIC provokes  wars and our soldiers kill endless innocent people in foreign lands, including our own kids while stockholders cash their checks to live in big homes and drive fancy cars.

How about a president who creates:  U.S. Department of Children and Youth.  Right now, 1 of 6 children faces hunger in the USA. That’s correct!  Here in the USA, 13 million children live in poverty.  Here in America, the richest country in the world;  we face 42 million Americans who cannot read or write, i.e., functionally illiterate.  Any wonder that they turn to drugs and addiction in their desperation?  Any wonder that 60,000 homeless wallow in the streets of Los Angeles along with another one million around America?

Williamson said, “If a child cannot read by age eight, that child’s chances for jail multiply as their illiteracy increases.”

This well-versed woman states that the USA encompasses two political universes, “The first is huge money and power versus the American people.  Power is not in your hands if not in your head.  Our amoral economic system has us by the throat.  One percent of Americans own more wealth than the bottom 90 percent. I will stop government subsidies to big corporations.”

Some of her detractors opine that she’s not a veteran politician. She responds with the fact that ‘veteran’ politicians got us into the nightmares we now must overcome.  She’s intelligent enough to hire the finest minds in this country to solve basic American needs.  The depth of her integrity has not been seen in politics that I’ve watched in the past 30 years.

Forty percent of Americans live in permanent anxiety about their next paycheck.  Our citizens offer 200 food banks and 60,000 food pantries for people who cannot find work.  What is the U.S. government doing? Answer: spending $6 trillion on 18 year-long wars while our citizens rot in the gutters across this nation.

She said, “The new aristocracy is insurance companies, defense contractors, multinational corporations, Big Pharma and the Military Industrial Complex.”

Williamson states that today, by not funding our schools in the inner cities, and by using property taxes for education of our children, we force poor areas to remain poor, and that constitutes passive repression.

As a former ghetto teacher, I attest that we’ve educationally become worse not better in the past 50 years. That’s why 7 out of 10 Black kids grow up on welfare with a single mother.  If you’re uneducated, and fatherless, you cannot help but become a replica of your parents.

Williamson expects to solve that, and you know something, I agree that she will solve it.  She manifests incredible resolve.

She voices that all great social changes came from the American people.  The government didn’t just one day say that it would give women the vote.  The Suffragettes marched, wrote and demonstrated to force it into being.  Equal rights for Blacks didn’t just pop up from Congress; people marched and demonstrated in the 1960’s.  I joined them, because it was the right thing to do.

If we keep electing the same old, entrenched and corrupt politicians, we face monumental continued malfeasance in a government that refuses to solve our country’s myriad problems and move forward.  We MUST change course.  Marianne Williamson offers a new path, with a new reckoning, and the same power that drove Susan B. Anthony to give women the vote.  How compelling to see such an extraordinary candidate in our midst.  Let’s hear more from her in order to offer all of us a more intelligent choice for President of the United States.

Part 2: More of Williamson’s brilliant ideas that need to be incorporated into US policy.

In the past week, I read several editorials by various newspapers all the way up to the Washington Post and the New York Times: top name journalists chastised Trump for shutting down the borders to refugees.  They chided him for his callousness toward immigrants, both legal and illegal.  They smeared him as a liar and heartless villain.

Nancy Pelosi, Maxine Waters, Charles Schumer, Adam Schiff and dozens of Congressional leaders absolutely do not know what they are talking about. They don’t know where this ‘thing’ will land. They insolate and isolate themselves so far from reality—they can’t represent us. Pelosi once said at an illegal alien gathering, “You are the future of our country.” I saw her and heard her say it.  She’s that daft!

The Bloomberg News printed the most egregious pile of literary manure of them all.  Their editorial read, “The truth is, the U.S. can admit far more refugees—and in doing so would advance its values, interests and global leadership…expose his cruel deceptions….”

What a crock!  What a total abrogation of the facts to the American people!  What kind of intellectual blowhards germinate in their tiny heads, such hogwash?

Therefore, I wrote this op-ed to many of the newspapers that published those editorials condemning Trump.  You may use this same response to write your own newspaper—to give them a dose of reality. You have my permission to put your name on it and get it published. Change it as you need it to make it local for you area.  We need to understand that we cannot sustain ourselves with this immigrant invasion, and we won’t survive as a cohesive country if it continues. We must rescind the 1965 Immigration Reform Act, and we need to do that now!

To:

From: Frosty Wooldridge,  (put your name, phone and address in this spot) math-science teacher, 6 continent world bicycle traveler, author of:  America on the Brink: The Next Added 100 million Americans.

Words: 750

Purpose for this submission:  At 330 million Americans today, this civilization faces enormous water, energy, resource and environmental challenges beyond comprehension as we add a projected 140 million more Americans by 2050—to jumping from 300 million in 2006 to 440 million by 2050.  (See population graph below) And, onward to 625 million by century’s end.  These numbers cannot be sustained with our consumption, waste and destruction of the biosphere levels.  We need to create a national discussion-debate on what we will bequeath to our children.  (Sources: www.PewResearchCenter.org ; US Population Projections/Fogel-Martin; U.S. Census Bureau)

Title:  America’s Exploding Population Predicament by Frosty Wooldridge (put your name in place of my name)

Dear editor:

In 2006, ABC’s Diane Sawyer heralded the 300-millionth person into the United States. Thirteen years later, we exceed 330 million on our way to 440 million by 2050.  Ironically, Americans chose 2.03 children per woman in 1970, but Congress overwhelmed that choice with the 1965 Immigration Reform Act that began adding over one million legal immigrants annually, and millions of undocumented immigrants.  We jumped from 194 million in 1965 and gallop toward 440 million within 31 years.

As a six-continent world bicycle traveler, I witnessed firsthand the consequences of exponential population growth around the planet.  At 1.4 billion people, China seethes with humanity and copes with unsolvable environmental degradation while India, at 1.25 billion, limps into the 21^st century with entrenched poverty, illiteracy, horrendous environmental chaos, and appalling civilizational despair.

Both those civilizations cannot solve or reverse their population consequences.  Ironically, India expects to surpass China to lead the world with 1.55 billion by 2050 while China reaches 1.5 billion. They face environmental, food, arable land and water consequences beyond the scope of this report.

At the same time, legal and illegal immigration drive America’s population juggernaut toward 440 million people. What will that look like?  Answer: with the addition of 140 million more people, net gain, we will double the populations of our 35 most populated cities.  For example, New York City, at 8.3 million, will jump to 16.6 million. Los Angeles at 11 million will hit 22 million. Florida at 18 million will jump to 36 million people.  Exponential population growth, much like a cancer cell, grows until it kills its host.

At some point, we must ask ourselves about quality of life and standard of living. We must deal with the fact that we face the “Tragedy of the Commons” introduced by the bioethicist Garret Hardin.  How many horses might a 1-acre plot of land with a water tank hold indefinitely? Answer: two horses.  If you put 100 horses into the paddock, the sheer numbers destroy any chance at long term sustainability.

What does that mean for the United States?  Currently, we face enormous scarcity issues with water in seven states, led off by California, Arizona and into Florida.  As California adds its projected 20 million more people by mid-century—at some point no viable solutions exist. California and America face irreversible consequences with unsolvable problems.

Beyond America, the rest of the world will add three billion more people by 2050 according to the United Nations report on world population projections.  Africa alone expects to explode from 1.1 billion today to 2.0 billion in 2050 and 4.0 billion by the end of the century.    What do such enormous and unsustainable populations do?  They migrate. They flood into Europe, Canada and America.

Unfortunately, America already faces “overshoot” or the inability to feed, water, provide energy and resources to its current population.

America already faces unsolvable problems with over 60,000 homeless in LA and 11,000 homeless in San Francisco and 10,000 in Denver, illustrates our own Catch-22.

When you consider the fact that adding another 140 million people will drive us into massive carbon footprint exhaust into the biosphere—we face “catastrophic climate destabilization” on a level not known since the dinosaurs vanished.

I could present “ecological footprint”; “water footprint”;  “resource footprint”; “species extinction rates” and more information that would depress the most optimistic person as to what’s headed toward their children.  Because once America reaches 440 million people, everyone becomes a victim with few workable solutions.

Thus, let the American citizens demand, with their knowledge of what’s coming, a national discussion-debate with our leaders.  Let’s engage our top food, farming, resource experts, environmentalists, animal extinction experts, climate professionals and other experts who understand our predicament. They need to be interviewed on 60 Minutes, NPR, PBS and every network regularly to educate the American people.  Today, the major networks avoid this issue like the Bubonic Plague.  Those experts might offer solutions now before, at some point in the future, when no solutions will solve our dilemma.

Let’s publish this knowledge in every media center in America.  Let’s deal with our future before it becomes our ugly present. In fact, by reading this commentary, what kind of a world would you like to hand over to your kids?  Because if you fail to act, fail to speak up—your kids face an extremely unpleasant “Tragedy of the Commons” in their future.

Frosty Wooldridge

During my 40-state bike journey around America this summer, I witnessed, up close and personal, exactly what’s happening to our country.  More than 90 percent of Americans don’t possess a clue as to what’s happening to them and the rest of us, and our major cities.  Most of our big cities, welfare magnets, no longer can be called “American cities” because immigrants dominate them.  Americans continue fleeing them.   We assume that all immigrants want to live here, thrive here and become Americanized.  That would be a gross mistake when you saw what I saw in my travels this past summer.

At the same time, I keep an eye on Social Media, and thousands of Americans write me letters telling me what’s happening in their neck of the woods.  At this point, I want to share some of those letters with you, so, you too, can ‘see’ what’s really happening to us.

Remember this: it’s all coming at us like a brakeless high-speed train filled with cars of multiculturalism, diversity, endless languages, incompatible religions, and in the case of millions of them—outright dislike for our country.  Just this past month, Portland, Oregon accepted certain aspects of Sharia Law within its city limits.  Sharia Law provides the most barbaric treatment to women, animals, human rights and rational living. It’s deadly, it’s malignant and it’s spreading across America.

Rick from Idaho said, “From my research over the years, I suspect that the optimal percent of non-heterogeneous people in a society is half a Standard Deviation.  This is approximately what exists in the north Asian dynamos (Japan, Korea, China). Note: They don’t seem to be suffering from a lack of “diversity!”

“During my younger years, and throughout most of American history, we had at most “one” (14-15%) STD of non-H population, and usually a few points less than that.  And I remember a study of Philadelphia schools in the 60’s which revealed that once the population of minorities exceeded 22% (1.5 STD), not only was the majority dominance challenged, but violence in the schools also commenced between the groups.

“As Sam Francis wrote: “You cannot separate a culture from the genetic endowments of its founding people, nor can you expect to transfer it to another people.”  Sure, a small minority of any culture will be attracted to another culture, but the majority of a genetic group will be ruled by blood ties.

“Whites are now at about 61% of the population, and yesterday I read that in ten years, whites will be a minority of those under 20. Stopping ALL immigration today, both illegal and legal, would not change the future demographics. It would only delay the inevitable by a few years. And whites MADE Western civilization, and when they are a minority, that civilization will disappear.

“Either deportations of minorities (benign with financial incentives) commences soon, or the country will fracture. I live in north Idaho, and this region along with Montana and Wyoming would be the core of what some call the American Redoubt.”

Art from Philadelphia said, “Frosty, the game is over.  We lost. I have given up. Not even a civil war can save the US, too much fragmentation, no unifying culture.  Most “conservatives” are neocon-Zionist-war-mongers.  Many people in my middle-class area look like mutations, sloppy, brain dead, etc.  Every smart patriotic citizen should have a Plan B for when disaster strikes.  My prediction is that the government will go bankrupt and massive civil unrest will follow.  [When welfare checks and EBT cards fail, people will riot like animals at food stores.  If you think Los Angeles’ 60,000 homeless are a mess today, just wait until they start starving to death.]

“The US is in its death throes, it is culturally decayed and financially depleted with debt.  No way out now, no base to rely on like we had during the Great Depression, actually it was WW I & WW II that Made America Great Again.  That option is gone, WW III will not work.  Americans have suicided their country and will pay a painful price.  Nobody forced them to be stupid and immoral, it was a free choice.

“I appreciate your efforts and hope you have some success and a good Plan B.”

John from Florida said, “Mr. Wooldridge, Here in South Florida, Miami is 90 percent foreign born.  Any illegal can blend in, buy a home, send children to schools and vote.  Basically, they are not going to be turned in by their own kind.

“The ones coming legally on HB visas are stealing jobs and also a burden on social welfare systems.  As my tax load ever increases, I see the money going directly to people that don’t even belong in the US.  They are 99.9% economic migrants.

The USA is headed to Civil War II.   Americans are sick and tired of the Federal Government and the immigration problems are all created and designed to destroy the country.  None of it is by accident.

“George Soros is financing hoards to illegally migrate?  Then why is he not arrested for insurrection and treason.  All his assets should be forfeited to the US Government and he and his children need to be executed for such crimes.

“Civil War II will accomplish these things.  All 25 million illegals in our country will self-deport because they will have an offer they cannot refuse.  All the others once cut off the tit, will also leave as the financial incentives are abruptly erased.  In some places it will be unpleasant  as frustrated Americans clean house.

“I am glad to see you back focused on these issues.  We are at war and it will soon turn hot.  Keep stoking the fuel!”

This reader said, “The Florida Keys were a paradise growing up in 60’s and 70’s.  My Great Grandfather worked for Florida East Coast Railway.  He was a blacksmith and built the viaducts you saw abandoned off the current highway including the seven-mile bridge.  I think you were taking your life in your hands completing such a trip.  Incredibly inattentive drivers here.  The keys are fished out and I haven’t been in years.  Used to go down fishing and diving frequently.  Had a time share in Marathon but don’t go anymore because the fish are gone and reefs dead.  There are 13 million living on SE coast and nature cannot support the load.

“Don’t be so hard on working Americans.  We have had a 100% bought- off media since the Brass Check Days.  While we are all busy trying to pay the tax load the criminals in DC have sold out to the globalists who want to destroy our culture and steal the resources of this great country.  Most people are isolated and unless you live in a city you are insulated from how bad it has become.  The internet has awakened the masses.  Many folks are beginning to pay attention.  As the communist party is doing their Hail-Mary, the American public is not buying it.  People I consider extreme liberals are assessing their views.  The pressure is building, and the relief valve is open civil war.

“The next couple years will be pivotal.  Please keep hitting it hard.  Keep it blunt.  I blast everything you send on immigration; this war will soon go hot.  We will win because there’s no place for any of us to evacuate to.   The communists are all outing themselves and it will not be difficult to mop up.  If you ever need logistical support, a bed, meal and shower.  Anytime!”

This reader said, “I am a pilot with #1.  Used to work for TWA.  I have seen the world first hand. I overnight in all those cities you mentioned.  The changes in the last five years are incredible.  Back in 80’s, I would enjoy a dinner cruise on the Nile.  Now Egypt is suicide for a white man.

“I have observed the common thread to be the City of London,  Rothschilds debt/slave banking cartel. It has corrupted and destroyed the world.  They call the shots with 1,000,000 associated banks.  They control elections, politicians, governments, major industrials and promote endless war.  It is a demonic force and lapdogs like Soros and Rockefeller’s are their agents.  The CFR has 5000 willing agents in the US all spread like corn roots destroying the fabric of our Republic.  The USA has immense mineral wealth.

“If they create destruction and chaos here, they can rob those resources at will.   As the US defaults on the massive debt it owes to the FED cartel, the bankruptcy will give up federal lands with all the wealth to satisfy the debt.   By flooding the country with nonnatives, it essentially creates a “Tower of Babel”.  No cohesive society left to stop them.   The Epstein pedo-saga is the City of London blackmailing useful idiots in power.    Our time is short to stop this.  Trump is the last chance for our country to restore the Republic.”

If you would like to tell your story so I can publish it to all Americans, send it to me from your neck of the woods.  We need to create more knowledge for all Americans on how fast our country degrades and deteriorates into a multicultural quagmire and parallel societies along with more racial, religions and ethnic conflict—just like Europe and Canada.

Once we gain a “Tipping Point” of Americans who demand a full stop to all immigration, we might stand a chance to survive the 21^st century. On this current path, we won’t.

God bless you and God bless the United States of America.

Part 4: Limits to everything in order to thrive in everything

America cannot continue to exist with endless and exponential immigration growth.  Everything faces limits: Number of people in a pool. Number of people on a dance floor.  Number of people in restaurant. Number of people on an airplane.

Today, though mass immigration, we exceed our limits, and in the coming years, we will pay a heavy price as to environment, culture and viability as a civilization.

“American institutions rest solely on good citizenship. They were created by people who had a back-ground of self-government. New arrivals should be limited to our capacity to absorb them into the ranks of good citizenship. America must be kept American. For this purpose, it is necessary to continue a policy of restricted immigration. It would be well to make such immigration of a selective nature with some inspection at the source, and based either on a prior census or upon the record of naturalization. Either method would insure the admission of those with the largest capacity and best intention of becoming citizens. I am convinced that our present economic and social conditions warrant a limitation of those to be admitted. We should find additional safety in a law requiring the immediate registration of all aliens. Those who do not want to be partakers of the American spirit ought not to settle in America.”  —President Calvin Coolidge, December 6, 1923

As it stands today, two U.S. House members, Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib, both Muslims and one born out of our country, swore in on the Quran, and both oppose the concept of America: free speech, free choice of dress and religion, women’s rights and animal rights.  They form the beachhead by which other Muslim immigrants will install Sharia Law—already being practiced in Detroit, Michigan; Minneapolis, Minnesota; New York City and Miami, Florida.

Everything in Islam contradicts everything in the U.S. Constitution.  And, followers of Islam intend to conquer America given enough time and numbers of followers.  One look at Europe gives you a peek into America’s future.

Editor of the Social Contract, Dr. Wayne Lutton said, “As the crisis at our southern border deepens, it is sometimes easy to forget how far-reaching the cultural impact of immigration can be. Even a place as distant and exclusive as the Hamptons has not been immune. With fancy summer homes and upscale shopping, Long Island’s northeastern coast has long been the seaside resort-of-choice for New York’s upper classes. It has also attracted immigrant workers. (www.TheSocialContract.com)

“When the 2008 recession hit, about two dozen day laborers in the Hamptons ran out of housing options and took refuge in some nearby campgrounds. They built fires, butchered a deer carcass, and slept on beds of old Budweiser boxes, all in the shadow of tony vacation homes and chic department stores. The New York Post ran the headline “Homeless in the Hamptons,” and residents were shocked at the squalor. Unsurprisingly, the sudden confluence of rich and poor caused social tensions, as angry homeowners worried about property values, and police monitored the campgrounds. Even after the recession ended, the familiar problems of overcrowded houses and schools continued to rankle the community.

“Concerns about rising inequality and cultural balkanization due to immigration are often downplayed by policymakers and members of the media. They assume these problems are temporary, just as they seemed to be a hundred years ago when European peasants were coming ashore. In their view, conflicts between natives and newcomers are just transition costs, footnotes to America’s long history of self-renewal.

The optimists do seem to have history on their side. Descendants of European immigrants may feel nostalgia for an idealized “Old Country” and express pride in those roots, but their ethnic identity usually has little or no importance to their daily lives. Most have undergone what John Fonte calls “patriotic assimilation.” They see themselves as plain-old Americans, the people who define the cultural mainstream rather than stand apart from it.

“Since 1965 we have experienced a new wave of immigration, this time primarily from the Western hemisphere rather than from Europe. Although Asian immigration has been rising — about as many immigrants arrived from Asia in 2018 than from Latin America — the overall post-1965 immigration wave has been dominated by immigrants from Mexico and increasingly Central America.

“Some observers expect Latin American immigrants to follow the European path to assimilation, but their optimism may not be warranted. In several ways, today’s immigrants are different.

“One of the most obvious differences is in numbers. Any given individual can potentially join the American melting pot, but the likelihood shrinks as the size of the out-group grows. In 1930, just after the Great Wave had ended, 12.6 percent of America’s foreign-born population hailed from Italy, the highest percentage of any nationality at the time.

“By comparison, 29 percent of immigrants were born in Mexico as of the 2010 census. Adding immigrants from other Latin American countries brings the Hispanic proportion of America’s foreign-born to 53 percent. The long-term effect on America’s population is notable. Hispanics, both foreign and native-born, were just four percent of the overall U.S. population in 1970, but today they are more numerous than black Americans. By 2050, Hispanics are projected to be more than one quarter of the U.S. population.”

By 2042, Hispanic-Latino-Mexican Americans will become the new majority.  And, that will include an additional 100 million more people, net gain, trying to make a living in America while the environment suffers enormous consequences.  Quality of life: forget it.

“A second key difference between today’s immigrants and those of 100 years ago is the persistent disparity in economic status. First-generation Hispanics—like those who slept on Budweiser boxes in the Hamptons—are quite poor on average, but their children (the second generation) will certainly make economic gains. The problem is that assimilation slows at that point. The Hispanic third generation remains well behind in measures of educational attainment, test scores, and earnings.

“A recent report from the Center for Immigration Studies found that in a sample of third-generation Mexican Americans born between 1980 and 1984, 24 percent graduated from college, compared to 38 percent of the white “fourth-plus” generation (meaning people with four U.S.-born grandparents). Similarly, Mexican Americans in the third generation scored at just the 42nd percentile on a test of math and verbal skills, and they earn 20 percent less than the white fourth-plus generation.

By contrast, third-generation European Americans slightly outperform the white fourth-plus generation on education and earnings measures. The economic contrast between the grandchildren of European immigrants and the grandchildren of Mexican immigrants could not be clearer, and it raises concerns that the latter group will have trouble seeing itself as part of the American mainstream.

The situation on the ground should add to these worries. Probably the most visible evidence that Hispanic assimilation is lagging is the prevalence of ethnic lobbying groups such as the National Council of La Raza, the Hispanic Congressional Caucus, the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, the National Association of Hispanic Journalists, and many others. They encourage ethnic awareness on a day-to-day basis, couching political issues in terms of what helps or hurts Hispanics as a group.

Lutton continued, “Most Americans reject such an ethnocentric approach to politics, but the existence of these lobbying groups seems inevitable. When an identifiable ethnic minority is noticeably poorer than the majority, someone is bound to exploit that situation for political gain. This is why it is useful only in theory to argue that Hispanic assimilation would happen much faster if La Raza were to disappear. The two are not separable phenomena in the real world. One comes with the other.

“Fortunately, average Hispanics may be different from the leaders who claim to represent them. Perhaps they are not motivated by ethnic identity as much as national Hispanic organizations want them to be. But it is hard to ignore the troubling data and anecdotes that suggest ethnic consciousness is common even among ordinary Hispanics. Consider the ethnic tensions that erupted at a high school in Morgan Hill, a small city in the San Francisco Bay area. On Cinco de Mayo, four students came to school wearing bandannas and t-shirts depicting the American flag. Citing concerns about safety, an assistant principal told them to change their clothes or face disciplinary action.

“The principal deemed patriotic clothing unsafe because it offended Hispanics who wanted to celebrate a Mexican holiday. “I think they should apologize ’cause it is a Mexican heritage day,” the AP quoted one Hispanic student as saying. “We don’t deserve to get disrespected like that. We wouldn’t do that on Fourth of July.” The quote betrays a decidedly unassimilated mindset—Cinco de Mayo is for us and Fourth of July is for them, the student was saying in effect. The day after the flag incident, Hispanic students organized a march through town, protesting the actions of the four students and supporting the school administration’s actions. At least one protester waved a large Mexican flag. In response, the Morgan Hill city manager promised the group, in the words of the AP reporter, “a community-wide celebration of diversity.””

Contrast Cinco de Mayo with European cultural celebrations in America. Would someone object to an American flag at a St. Patrick’s Day parade? Is Oktoberfest rife with ethnic tension? Does Mardi Gras elicit calls for sensitivity training? Because many Hispanics have not fully joined the melting pot, Cinco de Mayo can feel politicized and exclusionary as a result.

“Hispanic identity was also on display during the World Cup,” said Lutton.  “Global sporting events tend to encourage nationalistic fervor, with rich and poor and young and old coming together to root for their country’s team. For many Hispanic Americans, that team was Mexico’s. When the Mexican team played World Cup warm-up matches in the U.S., it easily sold out large venues, each time filling the stands with Mexican green. Over 63,000 people in Charlotte, North Carolina, for example, packed a stadium to see a Mexico-Iceland match. The New York Times even suggested the Mexican national team could be the most popular soccer team in the U.S.

“Moving beyond anecdotes, the Pew Research Center asked Hispanic respondents in 2002 for the first or only way they identify themselves. Three choices were available—American, Hispanic/Latino, or the specific country the respondent’s family came from. Even among third generation and higher Hispanics, just 57 percent chose American. In 2009 Pew re-asked the question, this time limiting its sample to ages 16 through 25 in order to capture “young Latinos coming of age in America.” In the third generation and higher, only 50 percent selected American as their first identity.

“One might be tempted to conclude that the melting pot works for Europeans but not for Hispanics. That is an oversimplification. In fact, the power of the melting pot has always been limited. The historian David Hackett Fischer observed that cultural differences among the four major settler groups from England — New England Puritans, mid-Atlantic Quakers, Southern Cavaliers, and the Appalachian Scotch-Irish — still persist in the U.S. today. Furthermore, George Borjas has shown that economic disparities among immigrants in 1910 were still noticeable among their descendants around 80 years later. Perhaps most surprisingly, Tom Rice and Jan Feldman have found that civic attitudes among European Americans can be predicted by present-day civic attitudes in the countries from which their ancestors came! For example, Sweden has a more civic-oriented population than Italy, and Swedish Americans are more civic-oriented than Italian Americans.”

Given that cultural-economic differences can persist for so long among different groups from within Europe — and even among different groups from the same island country, in the case of Fischer’s work — is it any wonder that people from outside Europe are struggling to assimilate?

The melting pot does not succeed or fail in a binary fashion. It would be fairer to say that it exerts a limited power of assimilation over all groups, but that groups with greater initial differences will see those differences persist far longer. In the case of European immigrants from the Great Wave, the melting pot appears to have enabled “patriotic assimilation,” but not complete assimilation in the economic or cultural sense. Whether the descendants of immigrants from Latin America will experience even patriotic assimilation — not to mention socioeconomic parity — is an open question, but the evidence so far is not encouraging.

“Open borders and sanctuary cities are blurring the distinction between illegal immigrants and Americans, and activist judges are eroding the Bill of Rights.” Victor David Hanson, author of Mexifornia

Last October, the Yale Study exposed the latest numbers of illegal aliens inhabiting, working and living in America:  the study showed between 22 and 25 million people live, work and play in America—without being citizens.  They violated American borders and live in violation of our laws 24/7.  Yet, Congress and even this president, do nothing to stop them.  Federal judges do everything in their power to negate our laws as to arrest and deportation of illegal aliens.  The ACLU also works against American citizenship.

Judges do nothing to sustain the laws already on the books:  US Code 8, Section 1324, makes it a crime to employ, house or transport an illegal alien living within the USA.  Fines:  $2,000.00 per illegal hired and up to 5 years in prison.  The American Civil Liberties Union thwarts our laws at every juncture. They must be the most Un-American organization operating in the United States.

Result:  millions of employers lie, cheat and steal from the American taxpayer.

At this time, American citizenship means very little to our elected leaders. Top sources state that nearly 500 cities legally protect border jumpers.

“Nearly 500 jurisdictions are now sanctuary cities, according to a group that’s tracked the issue for more than a decade, and who said there’s been a massive surge in the number of places trying to thwart federal immigration agents since President Trump’s election.

“The Ohio Jobs & Justice Political Action Committee has added more than three dozen new cities and counties to its list in 2017 alone, as jurisdictions rush to try to shield illegal immigrants from what they expect to be a new push for deportations under Mr. Trump.”

Additionally, an average of 300,000 pregnant illegal mothers birth their children on U.S. soil annually at a cost into the billions of dollars annually and over time as American taxpayers must pay for the births, food, schooling and medical for 18 years and beyond.  No one in Congress will stop it.

Hanson said, “Multiculturalism has reduced the idea of e pluribus unum to a regressive tribalism. Americans often seem to owe their first allegiance to those who look like they do. Citizens cannot even agree over once-hallowed and shared national holidays such as Christmas, Thanksgiving, and the Fourth of July.

“It is eerie how such current American retribalization resembles the collapse of Rome, as Goths, Huns, and Vandals all squabbled among themselves over what was left of 1,200 years of Roman citizenship — eager to destroy what they could neither create nor emulate.”

In my Denver, Colorado city, we pay for schooling of kids with 178 different languages. We house over 300,000-400,000 illegals in our state.  We pay for ESL classes that amount to nothing but a waste of money because those kids do not care to learn or speak English.  They live on welfare while they disrupt education for American students.  The last two Colorado governors mandated ‘sanctuary status’ for the entire state.  Illegals run around as a protected criminal class.  Even when they kill our citizens through drugs or accidents or outright executions, illegals enjoy immunity from our laws.

Hanson continued, “If a student cannot safely express opposition to abortion on demand, question the global-warming narrative, or object to safe spaces, trigger warnings, and race-based theme houses on campuses, does it matter that in theory we still have a First Amendment?

“We are unwinding at both ends. Tribalism, the erosion of the middle class, and de facto open borders are turning Americans into mere residents of a particular North American region between Mexico and Canada.”

Talk about unwinding, we’ve got Muslim lawmakers working feverishly to install their 6^th century Sharia Law, which mandates women as ½ the value of a man, female genital mutilation of little girls, and the integrity of ‘honor killings’, acid in women’s faces, loss of animals rights, and virtually no women’s rights.  In fact, Assistant District Attorney, Ed O’Callaghan, Feb 2, 2018, stated that America now features 23 to 26 honor killings in the USA annually, and 500,000 cases of FGM throughout the country. FGM stands as assault and battery, but it’s not enforced. In other words, we’ve lost the ability to adjudicate our own laws, and we’re relinquishing them to a barbaric religion out of the 6^th century.

These same illegals register to drive cars and vote in California, New York and more states across the USA.  Thus, your citizenship means less and less as their numbers grow more and more.

Each month, Congress imports 100,000 legal immigrants.  Another 500,000 cross our borders illegally annually.  Total: 1.7 million people mostly from third world countries.  Congress gives them citizenship whether they can read, write or perform simple math, or not, which is mostly the case.

When it comes to citizenship, does anyone think that Minnesota House Member Ilhan Omar possesses anything in common with any American?  Does she work for the betterment of America and Americans?  Why hasn’t she been indicted for marrying her brother to defraud our immigration system, which has been proven, but no action taken?  Is she the kind of citizen we want in our country?  Do we want more of her?  How about all those honor killings in the USA today? What kind of citizens practice that barbarism as Americans?  Answer: Muslims never intend on become Americans.  Or, FGM cases bursting out of the woodwork.

“Immigrants devoted to their own cultures and religions are not influenced by the secular politically correct façade that dominates academia, news-media, entertainment, education, religious and political thinking today,” said James Walsh, former Associate General Counsel of the United States Immigration and Naturalization Service. “They claim the right not to assimilate, and the day is coming when the question will be how can the United States regulate the defiantly unassimilated cultures, religions and mores of foreign lands?  Such immigrants say their traditions trump the U.S. legal system.  Balkanization of the United States has begun.”

What do we face in the end game of a projected addition of 110,000,000 (million) more immigrants invading America by 2050?   What kind of educational systems will we see in the future?  Can we educate those who lack the intellectual horsepower to learn?  What do we do with the offspring of 25 million illegal alien parents?

Will our country uphold the rule of law or become a chaotic anarchy much like Baltimore, Detroit, Chicago, Los Angeles or Miami—where so many people lack any sort of education, citizenship or loyalty toward America?

You might want to think about the loss of value of your own citizenship, and soon, that of your children.  I’ve seen enough of the third world to understand that once we cross over the Rubicon River with too much lawlessness that we tolerate—one day we won’t be able to save ourselves.

What to do?  Call your Senator and House member:

1. Rescind the 1965 Immigration Reform Act. We don’t need another 1.2 million legal immigrants annually.
2. Install the “Ingress equates to Egress Equation” for immigration. If 50,000 vacate America, we can import 50,000 educated, merit-based immigrants who speak English and want to become citizens.
3. Better yet, stop all immigration for 20 years.
4. Outlaw all anchor baby births and send back to their own country.
5. Stop all ‘diversity visas’ as they do nothing to enhance our country.
6. Arrest, prosecute and jail all employers of illegal aliens and start with the big ones like Marriott, Hormel, Tyson, McDonalds, Chipoltle’s and then, go after construction companies, landscape and painting companies.
7. Slowly and gracefully begin deporting all illegal aliens as caught when they can’t secure a job.

Part 3: Creating new non-citizens with no compatibility toward America

In this series, you watch the disintegration of your own society as your own U.S. Congress jam packs America into a polyglot of incompatible foreigners who carry no sense or need to become Americans.

Brenda Walker, living in San Francisco, suffers a front row seat as to how her city no longer enjoys American roots, but has become a foreign city within America. Much like New York City, Detroit, Minneapolis, Miami, Los Angeles and more to come.

“If only today’s schools still presented America as a nation of great ideals and progress, instead of a racist failure,” said Walker. Out on the left coast, California has been busy re-interpreting history into a diversity fable where every tribe has its turf, and assimilation is not required. In 2012, Governor Jerry Brown approved a bill encouraging social studies teachers to present material about the bracero program that imported Mexican workers. In 2016, after a decade of study, the state Department of Education rewrote the history curriculum for the more than six million public school students to emphasize diversity. So coming textbooks will enumerate the contributions of Sikhs, LGBTs, Filipinos, Japanese, Chinese, Mexicans, black Americans, Hindus, and every other group that the diversity bean counters could think of. In short, the kids will be studying a modern socialist handbook to train junior activists.

“Unfortunately, as other states turn left as a result of excess immigration, they tend to follow California’s bad example.

“Today’s educational leaders have apparently given up on excellence as a value that students should pursue: now striving to be the best is considered “acting white.” As observed in a Wall Street Journal article titled “The Attack on Educational Excellence,” Jason Reilly argued that “In the upside-down thinking of affirmative-action advocates, academically rigorous schools should be more focused on achieving racial balance and less focused on maintaining high standards.”

“It should be noted that some tribes really don’t want to assimilate into America: they want to live in their ethnic neighborhoods, maintain their own culture, and collect their welfare checks in peace. Somalis come to mind in this regard and are arguably some of the most stubborn. Hostile, culturally inappropriate groups like Somalis are a bad choice for immigrants and cost the taxpayer a pile of money as a result. They arrive with a dislike of western values, and the young men act out via crime, gangs, and Islamic violence.

“In January, Minneapolis news reports indicated that violent crimes had increased by more than 50 percent in the “Little Mogadishu” neighborhood of the city from Somali gang activity. In 2015, documentary filmmaker Ami Horowitz interviewed young Somali men in Minneapolis with the question of whether they preferred living under Islamic sharia law or the American system. Nearly all said they favored sharia, yet they remain in this country even though their homeland has Islam in abundance. Hint — flights leave for Africa daily.

“Lewiston, Maine, is another town overwhelmed by unfriendly Somalis. In 2012, Mayor Robert MacDonald said that the Somalis residing there should assimilate to America. For that normal expectation, the mayor faced protests and demands for his resignation. So, it’s not a stretch to say that many Somalis are hostile to the idea of assimilation and becoming American.

“Some tribes are simply a bad bet for positive adjustment to this country, and Somalis must top that list. Plus, admitting historic enemies is unwise for a nation that claims to care about national security and public safety.

“The ideal solution for failing assimilation would be to end immigration entirely, period, which would stop the input of diverse persons insisting on special treatment. Eventually some might figure out how to be Americans without the hyphen.

“Ending immigration is not an extreme idea. As I have written for years, massive job loss from automation is coming and will hit low-skill employment first, making millions of immigrants obsolete as workers. As soon as machines can perform a task more cheaply than a human, the worker will be replaced. Sen. Tom Cotton is a rare politician to see the connection, revealed in a 2018 tweet: “It can’t simultaneously be true that robots will take all the jobs and that the West needs millions of new immigrants to do the grunt work.”

“Washington’s stubborn ignorance about the automated future does not serve the people well. When the government acts as if America is the welfare office to the world, multiple evils are promoted. In particular, border anarchy leads to local communities being overwhelmed by needy foreigners, and Third World migrants have abandoned their home countries rather than working for reform there. Diminishing the rescue mentality of mass immigration proponents would be a great benefit for a planet with more than 7.7 billion residents. Unfortunately, there’s too much money in the migration business, both legal and illegal, for it to go away easily.

But there’s no question that too much immigration makes assimilation harder and less valued. Less immigration would definitely be better for America and the world in general.”

As you can see, Brenda Walker walks the walk and sees what she sees in California, which might be deemed our latest third world country with its 11,000 homeless. But that’s combined with 60,000 homeless in Los Angeles, 6,000 homeless in Seattle and 10,000 homeless in my city of Denver, Colorado. While we import another 1.7 million third world immigrants annually, on our way toward adding 140 million by 2050—you must ask yourself if your country, America, will survive this invasion. Answer: it won’t.

Part 2: Disintegrating America with endless foreign immigration

As you look around America’s major cities, you notice foreign flags, strange languages and foreign dress that counters everything “American”.

A conversation with California writer Brenda Walker gives you an idea of how fast our country devolves into a polyglot of cultures, foreign languages and strange customs.

Walker said, “As the American population grows to have an ever larger proportion of foreign-born, assimilation becomes more important to maintain a cohesive society, yet more difficult to achieve. Like newbies in previous generations, immigrants often move straight into an ethnic neighborhood populated by their countrymen. It’s just easier to live among fellow foreigners who speak your language, share your values, and understand your jokes. But it prevents assimilation because new residents are unlikely to acculturate if there are no models of American values to follow.

“Human nature seems to be hard-wired to prefer one’s own tribe, and our history shows a reliance on the close group of family and clan for safety. Immigrant neighborhoods are a modern expression of that urge.

“Some immigrants residing here want their homelands remembered by designation of those ethnic neighborhoods. In 2014 the  Los Angeles Times reported on the idea in an article titled “Advocates seek to carve out official Latin American areas in L.A.” A map included with the story showed streets marked as Guatemalan Mayan Village, Little Venezuela, and such. A leader of the Peru Village effort remarked, “This is us uniting and saying, ‘Hey, we contribute. We belong.’ It’s time we are all recognized.”

Did immigrants in earlier times demand that their tribe be “recognized”?

“Sadly, the simple expectation of U.S. citizens that immigrants should eventually become Americans in fact and in spirit has many difficulties, both situational and imposed,” said Walker. “Some immigrants work long hours at low-paying jobs that leave little time for learning English and going to PTA meetings. But too many foreigners come only for the American dollar, not understanding that prosperity is the result of a free and productive culture.

“Not that long ago, assimilation was expected of immigrants. It seemed a fair deal that when foreigners came here to live permanently, they should learn English, be loyal to America, and adopt our values of liberty, equality, and fairness. But now there are massive educational and media campaigns propagandizing diversity in opposition to traditional integration. Even so, citizens continue to prefer assimilation. A 2011 Rasmussen poll found “An overwhelming majority (73 percent) of voters say people who move to the United States from other parts of the world should adopt America’s culture, language, and heritage.” A 2015 survey by the same pollsters on the topic had fallen to 68 percent favoring immigrant assimilation, still solid although somewhat diminished.”

In Minneapolis, Minnesota, 55 percent of the Somali immigrants preferred Sharia Law over American law.  In fact, they de facto practice it. Problem: Sharia Law runs counter to U.S. Constitutional Law. No women’s rights, animal rights, no free speech, no free choice of dress, no choice of religion, etc.

“It’s a no-brainer that newbies should assimilate for their own benefit and also to maintain a culturally unified nation, but now mass immigration and the ideology of diversity have marred the idea of acculturation to the nation foreigners have chosen to join,” said Walker. “One sub-topic of assimilation is the place of speaking English in this country, and it continues to poll strongly: a Rasmussen/ProEnglish survey from April 2018 found that 81 percent of Americans believe that English should be the official language of the United States. A Frank Luntz poll from July 2018 found that nearly two-thirds of respondents believed immigrants should be able to hold a basic conversation in English.

“But huge and rapid arrivals of foreigners can alter the calculus by changing the people. In some locales of extreme diversity, like Miami, learning to speak English is not necessary and the foreigners can live their entire lives speaking Spanish only.  Problematic for assimilation is its array of enemies, ranging from ideological to political and national.

“Some believe that allegiance to the nation-state is a retro concept that needs to be tossed out as too old-fashioned for an increasingly global society. The late political scientist Samuel Huntington wrote in 2004 about “Davos men” — elites who “have little need for national loyalty, view national boundaries as obstacles that thankfully are vanishing, and see national governments as residues from the past whose only useful function is to facilitate the elite’s global operations.”

If you fail to maintain a single, dominant language in a society, people who speak different languages, think differently and see the world differently.  With enough of them, you find rips and tears in the fabric of the ethos, culture and way of life.  At some point, they cannot be repaired.  At that point, you lose all unity of the citizens. That turns to conflict and civil war.

Walker continued, “Those beliefs are reflected in transnational amalgamation projects like NAFTA and the European Union: they were designed to take power further away from the annoying voters who want their local concerns addressed and put into the hands of elites with globalist philosophies.

“One group of anti-assimilationists is the immigrant-sending nations, many of which benefit greatly from the remittances sent by immigrants to their relatives still in the home country. For example,$53.4 billion in remittances were sent to Mexico and Central America in 2018. That’s easy money, so the homelands don’t want their emigres to forget about them and drift away into life in the U.S. And we shouldn’t be surprised that poor countries like Guatemala ($7.7 billion in remittances in 2017) and Honduras ($3.8 billion in 2017) want to see their workers relocate to the U.S. and send lots of money home. Preventing illegal immigration does not benefit the homelands at all: they want maximum open borders.

“By comparison with its southern neighbors, Mexico is quite rich and routinely scores around 15 on national GDP rankings. But it also has a great number of very poor people, so any freebie stuff than can be mooched from America is a plus. Mexico had an agency under Presidente Vicente Fox then known as the Office for Mexicans Abroad, designed to maintain connections with its emigre community. It was run for a time by dual citizen Juan Hernandez, who remarked on Nightline in 2001, “I want to get the third generation, the seventh generation in the U.S. I want them all to think ‘Mexico first.’”

“On April 3, Fox News host Tucker Carlson interviewed Hernandez, who is now the Secretary of Migrants and Foreign Affairs for the Mexican state of Guanajuato, and read back a couple of his notable quotes: “Mexican immigrants to the United States are, quote, ‘going to keep one foot in Mexico.’ They are not going to assimilate in the sense of not being Mexican,” and also, “We’ve recognized that the Mexican population is 100 million in Mexico and 23 million who live in the United States. We are a united nation.”

“In the same segment, Carlson further explained, “The Mexican government now says it will spend $150 million on a campaign to help convince Mexicans living here in our country to keep speaking Spanish.”

“Mexico has big plans for its immigrants to the U.S., but clearly assimilation to American values is not included in the package. A major player in assimilation should be the schools, because often the original immigrants are too busy with getting physically and financially settled to be involved in cultural integration. So the kids, either born here or little immigrants themselves, have the opportunity to grow up as Americans. And not that long ago, our public schools did the job of teaching American values and history.

“Author and historian Victor Davis Hanson wrote an article in 2002 titled, “The Civic Education America Needs,” which described his 1960s school experience in California’s Central Valley, where the classroom demographics were quite diverse:

“The class was about 65 percent Mexican-American, 10 percent Asian and African-American, the rest mostly poor rural white whose parents had fled the Dust Bowl. Yet I cannot recall a single reference by our teacher, a native Oklahoman, to race, class, or gender, which might so easily have divided us. Instead, we repeatedly heard that President Lincoln, Mark Twain, and John Henry belonged to a heritage we all shared—that we natives had no more claim on FDR or Guadalcanal than did the new arrivals from Oaxaca or the Punjab.”

As you see, America faces a breaking up of her culture, her language and her sense of “country.” Mass immigration spells the doom of the U.S. Constitution.

This summer on my journey through 40 states on my bike, I saw a lot of America.  I talked to countless Americans along the way.  I saw things that disturbed me, even upset me and forever rendered me sober as to the challenges Americans face in the 21st century.

I saw chemical-spewing airplanes spraying poisons across thousands of acres of crops.  I saw tractors spraying poisons upon endless fields of the foods we eat.  I saw signs on corn fields showing the Genetically Modified Organism filled with artificial DNA at the hands of blind, stupid and greedy crop scientists—from Monsanto and Bayer.

Jane Goodall, the famous primate specialist said, “Humans will look back on the 21stcentury, shake their heads, and wonder why they sprayed, injected and covered their food with chemicals.”

We might also add, “Why did we do it to ourselves? Why did we allow our FDA and other agencies be bought off to allow the poisoning of our food chain. Why did money win and our health lose?  Why did Monsanto and Bayer corporations get away with downright murder of countless thousands and into the millions of Americans, when the final tally comes due?”

This year, I attended four funerals of friends.  Three cancer deaths and one heart attack.  Last year, seven friends died.  Four cancers, two heart attacks and one Parkinson’s Disease.  Two of my friends suffer from Multiple Sclerosis and Parkinson’s Disease.

Cancer kills over 600,000 Americans annually.

Cancer cells grow as abnormal entities that multiply in a tissue environment that has been unbalanced by chemicals in the air a person breathes, or the water he or she drinks, or food consumed.

Yet, today, with all our science and all our rules, we allow our crops to be poisoned, our foods to be GMO’d into synthetic crops, our water to be contaminated and our soils to be nutritionally exhausted.

Today, from Monsanto and Bayer’s  Weed B-Gone, RoundUP and other sickeningly poisonous chemicals being sprayed all over our country, glyphosates (poisonous to your gut bacteria) can be found in human breast milk, in regular cow’s milk, in wines, and well, in our entire food chain.  Farmers spray this poison over crops and it filters down into the ground water, and it’s everywhere.

Yet, Monsanto and Bayer bribe Congress to make sure they can sell it and disperse it across the land, water and air. Home Depot and Lowe’s Hardware stores feature it in rows awaiting the public to purchase it.  Monsanto makes certain that GMO’s never see the light of exposure to the American public.

Monsanto and Bayer destroy bee colonies everywhere their products hit the land.  By destroying the pollinators, we destroy our food chain.

Monsanto pushes its poisons into every kind of packaged, glassed or boxed processed food possible.  You’ll see the ubiquitous and insidious “high fructose corn syrup” and “sucralose” in jams, breads, chips, drinks, sodas, whey products, syrups, and well, just about everything you can imagine. It’s in all the “sugar free” products.

The results: an obesity epidemic never seen in the history of the human race.  Seven out of ten Americans waddle through their years from their teens right up until their deaths from diabetes, heart disease, cancers, Parkinson’s Disease, MS, MD, Fibromyalgia and the list keeps growing.

When you walk into your grocer store, you MUST defend yourself against the poisons.  Every fast food chain injects excito-toxins into their foods like MSG to make you eternally hungry.  So, you eat one Big Mac, but it makes you hungry for another Big Mac.  Then, you eat another bag of fries and another Coke, Mt. Dew or Pepsi.  Those three deadly drinks wreak havoc with your gut and tooth decay.

Meats: those beef cows stand in their own manure and urine 24/7 until they are slaughtered. They breath their own waste their own lives.  They eat GMO corn that they would never eat in a pasture.  And, you will find seven different chemicals fed or injected into all cows and chickens.  I have the list in front of me, and I cannot pronounce a single one of the words of these poisons.

This column could expose much more of the abuse of food producers against American citizens.  But how do you defend yourself from the onslaught of poisonous foods?

Select and eat at healthy fast food stores like Modern Market, Garbanzos Mediterranean Fresh, Q-Doba, and Healthy Habits.

Buy your groceries from Natural Foods (formerly Vitamin Cottage) grocery stores where you enjoy organic produce.  You want to eat foods that did not suffer spraying of herbicides, insecticides, and chemical fertilizers.  You must check packaged foods for ingredients such as GMO’s, chemical additives, dyes and preservatives. Avoid GMO’s at all costs.  Consume only range fed chickens and their eggs. Avoid factory-farmed red meat and pork.

Stop consuming any kinds of soda pops.  You’re drinking poison liquid in a bottle or can.  Also, drink filtered water because so many water systems across the USA suffer from at least five contaminants.  When you realize that all our water drops from the sky as acid-rain, you must understand that those waters end up in your faucet for drinking.

You may read many good books you can find at Natural Grocers, Barnes and Noble, and on line.  Educate yourself as to what you’re eating.

Part 1: Overloading America with immigrants from an ever-growing line from around the world.

As I traveled throughout 40 states of America this summer, and over 20 of her major cities, the American people lack any clue as to the rapid transformation of this country into a polyglot of cultures, languages and conflicting religions—-brought about by endless immigration of over 1.7 million legal and illegal immigrants, annually.

This summer, as reported by Dr. Wayne Lutton, “Hundreds of protesters gathered at the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention facility in Aurora, Colorado (suburb of Denver). They tore down the U.S. flag flying at this federal agency where illegal aliens are being held, and replaced it with the Mexican flag. “Abolish ICE” was spray painted by other demonstrators.

“As Gloria Precht, one of the many critical commentators posted at Denver CBS Channel 4, wrote, “This is why you need to leave…replacing the U.S. flag with the Mexican flag shows that you are not willing to assimilate into our country and follow our laws.”

Vincent Ardizzone also commented, “So, let me get this straight. They wave the flag of the country they’re seeking asylum from?”

Colorado’s Democratic Governor Jared Polis loudly protested against plans by the Trump Administration to deport illegals facing deportation orders that had been planned for Denver and nine other cities, starting on July 14, 2019. Governor Jared Polis charged that these efforts to finally enforce the law represented “another failure of leadership”…and was “creating uncertainty and fear.”

One might suggest that criminals should be made to feel “uncertainty and fear” and encouraged to stop their illegal activity. In the case of illegal aliens, this would include leaving this country and going home to their native lands.

Lutton said, “In our Nation’s Capital, a Sanctuary City, the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) issued statements and a video, in eight languages (Arabic, Amharic, Japanese, Korean, Mandarin, Vietnamese, French, and Spanish), reiterating that D.C. Metropolitan Police officers “are prohibited from asking about residency/immigration status. Our immigrant community is a vital part of the fabric of our city…MPD has a long-standing policy that prohibits police officers from asking about citizenship or residency status to determine whether an individual is undocumented.”

In reality, illegal aliens formed the largest drug distribution network in America. They birth children that American taxpayers must pay K-12, breakfasts and lunches, and medical care. Also, illegals displace our poorest workers from housing and jobs. Illegals don’t pay taxes, but do forge ID’s and drive without licenses or insurance. They also send $120 billion in cash transfers back to their own countries annually, thus bleeding America of needed monetary funds.

“Diversity within a nation destroys unity and leads to civil wars,” said social scientist Garret Hardin. “Immigration, a benefit during the youth of a nation, can act as a disease in its mature state. Too much internal diversity in large nations has led to violence and disintegration. We are now in the process of destabilizing our own country. The magic words of destabilizers are ‘diversity’ and ‘multiculturalism’.”

Writer James Kirkpatrick said, “Yet the real question is whether America is going to be a country at all. If America is to be a country, there need to be incentives in place for people to identify as Americans. These include making English the official language, establishing equal treatment under the law, and imposing an immigration moratorium to facilitate assimilation.”

Without assimilation, America cannot and will not continue as an intact culture or viable society.

“Any culture that will not defend itself against displacement through mass immigration faces extinction. That includes both time-tested and successful cultures. Embracing diversity results in cultural suicide. America’s multicultural path guarantees its destruction via cultural clashes and conflict with Islam, Mexican and African cultures that diametrically oppose American culture. The more diverse a country, the more destructive and broken-down its future. The more people, the more it destroys its quality of life and standard of living. The more it adds immigrants, the more destruction to its environment. The more it imports refugees, the faster America, Canada, Europe and Australia lose their own ability to function and worse, their identities. Exponential growth of any civilization leads to ultimate collapse. You see it in Africa, India and China today. You will see it in Europe, Canada, Australia and America in the coming years, “IF” Western countries don’t stop all forms of immigration.”

Anyone with the least bit of curiosity who elected Omar need only watch this video taken at the Mall of America in Bloomington, Minnesota. —-> It’s a total Muslim take-over:

As an American, how does that statement feel? I talked to one of my neighbors last week, and described how Muslims dominate Minneapolis and Detroit with overwhelming immigrant numbers. Jerry said, “I had no idea.” That’s correct. My neighbor mirrors most Americans in their total cluelessness of what’s happening in our country.

“Immigrants devoted to their own cultures and religions are not influenced by the secular politically correct façade that dominates academia, news-media, entertainment, education, religious and political thinking today,” said James Walsh, former Associate General Counsel of the United States Immigration and Naturalization Service. “They claim the right not to assimilate, and the day is coming when the question will be how can the United States regulate the defiantly unassimilated cultures, religions and mores of foreign lands? Such immigrants say their traditions trump the U.S. legal system. Balkanization of the United States has begun.”

Do you understand that our U.S. Congress continues to import 1.7 million immigrants annually, and those immigrants and their birthrates will add 140 million more people by 2050—a scant 31 years from now?

What do we need to do as American citizens?

1- We need to push our representatives to rescind the 1965 Immigration Reform Act.
2- We need to stop all immigration for 20 years and longer. We don’t need any more immigrants.
3- We need to stop all “anchor baby” birthright citizenship for 300,000 pregnant mothers who violate our borders to birth a baby on our soil, and we pay for it.
4- We need to stop all “diversity visas” for 50,000 third world people annually, who arrive without education, skills, English or cultural compatibility.

These two videos show you what we face, not “if” but “when.”

If you look at these two videos, you will see exactly what I am speaking about:

Back in high school, rumors started as fast as a lightning storm to destroy any girl’s reputation.  Often out of jealousy for some perceived transgression, classmates concocted stories to create hurt for another person.

(During your lifetime, you face curving roads, blind corners that you can’t see coming and things up ahead that you can’t imagine. You will also meet friends, moments and predicaments that bewilder you.  Keep pedaling, paddling or hiking toward your truest self.  The journey will reward you with an amazing life.) Photo by Frosty Wooldridge

As we grew older, most of us learned through the years that everyone paddles his or her canoe as best they can on this unique journey through life.

But along the way, in most communities around the world, people talk about other people. They make judgments.  They hold verdicts. They render conclusions based on their perceptions.

Someone always gets emotionally damaged by bitter reprisals, anger, gossip and other peoples’ frustrations.

It’s been said that, “Life begins at the end of your comfort zone.”

I once knew a friend who carried grudges against those who wronged him.  He piled them into a potato sack that he slung over his shoulder everyday when he traveled to work. When I saw him for lunch one day, he carried on with new additions to his “potato sack full of grudges.”

Finally, I said, “Jack, you carry so many negative thoughts about folks who have done you wrong that you keep piling complaints into that sack that you carry around on your back.  The more you complain, the more you add to the sack—I think it must be getting pretty heavy and pretty rotten.  Have you ever thought of forgiving all those who wronged you?”

“I just can’t,” Jack said.

“If you did,” I said, “it would take a load off your mind and emotions.  Give it a try.”

“How do I do it?” he asked.

“People can be harsh, unfair, perverse, dishonest and irrational,” I said.  “Just forgive them anyhow.  Forgive them unconditionally in your own mind and heart.  They don’t need to know it.  You don’t have to tell them.  Just know that you forgave them.  In doing that, you forgive yourself.  It’s really freeing.”

Jack seemed to “click” the solution into his mind. From that day, he let go of his anger, bitterness, frustrations and disappointments he experienced with people.  One of the best things he did: Jack associated with people who supported him. He fled “those” people who remained in his former paradigm.  He changed jobs.

The facts:  if you grow into a successful person, others may deride you.  Forgive them anyhow.

It’s possible that if you maintain honesty and speak your mind, others may call you names or betray you.  Forgive them anyhow.

You may build a business or work hard to succeed, but someone undermines you.  Forgive them anyhow and move toward your dreams on your earned experiences.

If you show positive energy and aliveness, others may be jealous and display their envy.  Guess what?  Forgive them anyhow.

In my lifetime, I have picked up a half-million pieces of trash from rivers, lakes and streams. Also, I picked up trash in the oceans, along roads and in parks.  People keep throwing it.  As angry as it makes me, I forgive them anyhow.

Therefore, you may do good things in the world, but people don’t care and forget quickly.  Do your good anyhow.

While the world disappoints, frustrates and diminishes everyone along the journey, give the world your best anyhow.

During and at the end of your life, you discover that you define your journey, how you live it and how you maintain yourself in the whirling tempest of living.

Shakespeare’s Polonius in Hamlet said, “Neither a borrower or a lender be. For the loan oft loses both itself and friend, and borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry.  This above all, to thine own self be true, and it must follow as the night the day, though canst be false to any man.”

Interesting because Polonius’ detractors spoke of him as overly officious, garrulous and impertinent.

Be yourself anyhow, because in the end, it’s all between you and the Great Spirit that expresses through all of us.

Every week in America, you read stories of amazing moments where ordinary people triumphed over failure.   You may watch the “Biggest Loser” where a man or woman cut 150 pounds off his or her body to walk on stage looking fantastic in a suit or dress.   Most suffered failure and depression for years concerning their obesity.   In life, people from all walks of life suffer failure on many levels.

(Give every moment of every day to your personal quest. Use your heart, your mind, your energy and your passion to follow your dreams.

Back in 1947, Twentieth Century Fox dropped Marilyn Monroe because producer Daryl Zanuck felt she lacked the “attraction factor” to make her a star.   Dr. Seuss’ first book suffered 27 rejections.  Richard Bach’s book, Jonathan Livingston Seagull, faced 44 rejections from publishers.  Barbara Streisand gave her Broadway debut in 1961, but the house closed after one show.

Frank Sinatra suffered expulsion from school for rowdy behavior.   Singer Johnny Cash sold appliances before his songwriting and guitar playing catapulted him to fame.   Walt Disney’s first cartoon company suffered bankruptcy.  Decca Records executive Dick Rowe rejected the Beatles in favor of  “The Tremeloes” a band that soon failed.  Martin Luther King suffered jail and name calling in his quest to bring equality to people of color.

Her boss fired Oprah Winfrey from her first job as an anchor at a Baltimore, Maryland television station.  She faced sexism and harassment.  Oprah rebounded to become the number one television talk-show host in America.

Film academics rejected Steven Spielberg from the University of Southern California School of Cinematic Arts multiple times.  They said, “He lacked basic abilities to comprehend the cinematic arts.”   Spielberg struggled until he directed such movies as “ET” that made him world famous.

At his first screen test, dancer Fred Astaire suffered the words of the director:  “He can’t sing. Can’t act. Slightly balding. Can dance a little.”  He became the greatest film and dance star of his age.

Struggling author and single mom J.K. Rowling lived off welfare when she began writing the first “Harry Potter” book. She now commands the title of the richest working woman in the United Kingdom.

Stephen King spent 13 years living in a trailer with his wife and kids while he took two hours out every night to work on his writing craft.  He rewrote “Carrie” after his wife pulled it back out of the wastebasket because he threw it away in total futility.  The book became an instant best seller that led to 350 million copies of his books published worldwide including the famous movie, “The Shawshank Redemption”.

As you know, every one of the above people continued their quests until they became world famous.  Their legacies continue to this day in literature, the arts, cinema, music and equal rights. Ironically, they continued following their calling no matter what the failure rate.

Unbeknownst to most people who look at famous names, stars or political leaders—they share one thing in common: they experienced multiple failures on their way toward their success.

Many people who faced failure didn’t realize how close to success they were when they quit.  They allowed their frustrations, obstacles and choices to defeat them.

Where does that leave you?   How do you feel about failure?  What can you do about your failures?  What can drive you to your ultimate success?

First of all, you must appreciate your own worth and the worth of your quest.

Polly Letofsky at 42, from Vail, Colorado, faced enormous challenges before becoming the first woman to walk around the world, 14,000 miles across four continents in five years to bring attention to breast cancer. She raised over a quarter of a million dollars and enjoyed 2,000 interviews from newspapers around the world.

In the past year October 3, 2013, 64 year old Diana Nayad, a world class swimmer, took her fifth and final attempt to swim from Cuba to Florida, a distance of 90 miles over treacherous ocean waters filled with sharks, jellyfish, waves and winds.  After 35 years of trying, she succeeded.  She said, “You can choose to live your dreams at any age.”

No matter what your age, lot in life or past failures, you enjoy every chance to succeed at your chosen-destiny by your decisions to overcome heartache, turmoil and failure.

In your life time, every moment leads to your epic life because there are no ordinary moments. Each moment makes your extraordinary life by your choices.

While cycling coast to coast in 1984, I met Bob Wieland, south of Socorro, New Mexico, out in the middle of the desert, walking on his hands across America.  When I stopped, I threw my bike into the gravel on the other side of the road. I walked over to shake hands.  I said, “What are you doing out here in 105 degrees heat?”  He said, “I am walking across America…what are you doing?”  I said, “I’m bicycling across America.”  He said, “I’d like to do that, too, but my legs are too short.”

From that single event in my life, I have never complained once since 1984. I take each day as a gift. I love each second on my touring bike, road bike and mountain bike. I promised myself to live a life worth remembering.

Totally blind in his teens, American Erik Weihenmayer became the first sightless person to climb Mount Everest.  He continued until he climbed the highest peaks on all seven continents.   Bob Wieland lost his legs to a bomb blast in Vietnam, but walked across America on his hands coast-to-coast.  Time: three years, eight months, six days!  Later, he hand-cycled west to east and east to west across America.  Not finished, he became the first double amputee to complete the Hawaii Ironman Triathlon.  He ran the New York, Boston and Chicago Marathons that took him five days to finish each race.  At 67, he again hand-cycled coast-to-coast across America.

American Aimee Mullins, 37, without legs below the knees since childhood, races track, models and gives motivational speeches. She said, “True disability is having a crushed spirit.”  She redefines what a woman can be and what she can accomplish.

Wilma Rudolph, sickly as a child, wore braces, but became the first woman to win three gold medals at the 1960 Olympics where they celebrated her as the world’s fastest woman.

Your choices in life transform you from the banal to the poetic—even to the noble.  Wasn’t it Shakespeare’s character “Shylock” a moneylender in the “Merchant of Venice” who spoke these words that ring out in the 21^st century, “If you prick us, do we not bleed? And if you tickle us, do we not laugh?  It is our humanity and all the potential within it that makes us beautiful.”

With those words ringing into the rafters of your mind, how will you live a life worth remembering?

If you’re 20 years old, you enjoy choices to lead an epic life that propels you to heroic memories.  By age 30, you burned through your 20s and may relish some epic moments.  By 40, you you’re half way through.  Have you lived a life worth remembering?  Or, did the “mid-life crisis” hit you square in the eyes—leaving you with a panicky feeling?  By 70, your after-burners exhausted themselves, leaving you in a gentle glide to your final moments.

If you live on this side of 40, are you creating a remarkable life for yourself? Do you live on any “searing the edges”? Are you carving out some extraordinary physical, intellectual or spiritual expression of yourself?

What made the above four “ordinary people” overcome their horrific physical conditions?  What drove them to greatness?

Remember this:  if something doesn’t challenge you, you won’t change.  Therefore, instead of watching an average of 29 hours of television weekly by the majority of Americans, create challenges in your life that propel you to more “noble” encounters.  If you divide 29 hours by 7 days, that equals an extra 4.1 hours daily to think about, dream about and participate in activities or challenges outside your comfort zone.

Opportunities: weight training to build a healthy body, cross training to run a triathlon this summer, or buy a canvas, paints and brush to dabble with a painting roiling around in your ingenious mind.  You might enter a pottery class to find your talents at throwing pots with intricate designs.  How about becoming a chef?

On the intellectual front, read books that interest you.  Enroll in a class in jewelry making.  Enter a mechanic’s class to repair old cars.  Most cities feature “Free University” classes to incorporate dozens of arts, hobbies and other classes to fit your propensities and passions.  How about joining the Peace Corps or Americorps?

Want to express yourself more creatively?  I read a book by Elizabeth Gilbert that profoundly affected me.  It will enthrall and inspire you:  Big Magic—Creative Living Beyond Fear.  I’ve read it 15 times!  I want it rampaging through my mind in order to catch and express new ideas.

In this life, discover what makes your life worth remembering.  What will they say at your memorial service?

“She (he) lived with exuberance, imaginative energy and a song in her heart,” smiled the preacher.  “She entered the realm of potential and opportunity to live a grand and glorious life.  She wasn’t lucky; she chose her destiny.  We remember her nobility through her actions.”

In this high-speed society we created for ourselves, Americans live in traffic-congested cities with skyscrapers piercing the sky.

On the ground floor, humans race to catch crowded busses, packed subways and Yellow Cabs. With expressways gridlocked from dawn to dusk, people overflow sidewalks and sirens slash through the air 24/7. The evening news reports robberies,  accidents, homicides and a plethora of  calamities too numerous for human emotions to endure.

But if you look at all the people living in cities, whether in their workplace or their office cubicle, what do you see on the partition wall?

You see posters of what they would rather being doing: windsurfing, skiing, sunbathing on a beach in the Caribbean, scuba diving, dancing, mountain climbing, camping, rafting, bicycling and a dozen other activities they would rather be living.

If you’re one of those people wishing you lived a different life or wishing you could live your dreams, then why don’t you go after it?

Why not live your poster instead of wishing you were windsurfing across Lake Tahoe or sunning on the beach in Hawaii?

Did you ever wonder how those people you see traveling around the world with a backpack or bicycle, or climbing mountains or taking a winter off to go ski bumming do it?

They defeat the tyranny of resistance.

Henry David Thoreau said, “The mass of men and women live lives of quiet desperation”.

In 2014 America, anyone at any station in life, at any age, can renew his or her life by choice, by intention and by action. Such individuals learn how to defeat the “tyranny of resistance.”

First of all, what constitutes this modern day tyranny that locks people into cubicle prisons in cities or into humdrum jobs that provide zero meaning?

Such persons yield to an inner resistance to transform themselves because they feel afraid, don’t know how to break their cubicle-bonds and, often times, none of their office mates know any better. It’s easier to be safe with the constancy and comfort of a paycheck and friends.

Do you remember the TV sitcom “King of Queens” with the fat boy Kevin James and co-star Leah Remini, who also got fat in the series, staged in New York City?  They never showed any happiness, but mostly conflict. Their  jobs: meaningless! They didn’t know how to escape their relationship or their jobs.

If you live such a scenario, how can you avoid a lifetime of regrets?

• Find your gift of what turns you on to life.  Discover your talent, your ability, your genius and your expertise. You can find it by examining what you do in your spare time. Pursue it, love it and live it.
• Practice self-awareness.  Socrates said, “The unexamined life is not worth living”. Instead of going through the motions, create your own wave and ride it.
• Incorporate your independent will as a “course correction” on your way to your life’s destination. As Jack London said, “You can’t wait for inspiration to change your life; you have to go after it with a club.”
• Discover your True North in the scheme of your life.  That’s your soul’s true knowing and what you desire most about your life. It’s your deepest truth.

Finally, you must engage your physical, emotional, mental and spiritual well-being.

Exercise daily to blow off excess energy in the body to release your mind to express itself.  Eat healthy foods to maintain a lean frame.  That, in turn, allows you emotional balance that originates with your relationship with friends, families and co-workers.  For your mental well-being, read books, take classes and express yourself through journaling, painting, sculpting or other art forms.  Finally, feed your spiritual being via inspirational books, church or nature, and the peace you find from a walk down a tree-lined path.

You will find the tyranny of resistance fades as you walk or gallop toward your happiness in work, play and friends. You won’t wish for what you see in the poster on your cubicle wall, you will live it for real.

The energy of life on this planet strives to organize into relationships. As with water, you watch it thrive in many forms such as snow, rain, ice and vapor. It gathers as clouds in the sky, which eventually, falls as rain or snow.  It drains into rivers that gather into the oceans.  All of these forms create relationships with the processes that allow life to thrive on this globe.

If you look to the universe; stars, planets, moons and galaxies exist in a symbiotic gathering.  They co-exist in a mutual dance based on physics and the “Law of Attraction.”  Their energy via movement flourishes in every sector of the cosmos.

Throughout all of creation, life sprang upon this planet utilizing the “attraction” process.  At some point, humanity manifested, which in turn, became “you” as an entity in the process.   What will you do with your precious “moment” on this planet?  Will you prosper by using your gifts or will you meander into mediocrity?  Will you submit to circumstance or strive toward self-fulfillment?

The courage to be you in 21^st century America may be one of the bravest acts of your life.  Our “cookie-cutter” society educates people into “slots” that maintain the engine of commerce.  General options include teaching, medicine, construction, salesperson, truck driver, cashier, janitor, waitress and factory worker.

How do you step outside that process if called toward a different path?  First, you must engage the quality of your mind and spirit to stand up in the face of fear.    Sure, it’s difficult to be different, to take an alternative path, to become a singer, artist or dancer.

The one thing you may expect on your life’s trajectory:  challenge!  If something doesn’t challenge you, it won’t change you.  That one factor becomes the conduit for your creativity and opportunity.  Challenges force you toward a chance to move into your highest and best—one step at a time.

If you remember some of the greats of history, their lives began by trudging toward their goal:  Ray Kroc started out with one hamburger restaurant that led to an “idea” to create a chain of McDonald’s fast food joints.   Billy Banks, inventor of Tae Bo fitness tapes, couldn’t read very well because of his dyslexia, failed in school and couldn’t qualify for many jobs.  Instead of giving up, he used his gifts to combine martial arts and kickboxing.  Oprah Winfrey began in poverty and abuse, but marshaled her talents for interviewing into a billion-dollar company.  Ms. J.K. Rowling, author of the Harry Potter series, transformed from a food stamp recipient to a $15 billion industry stemming from an idea about a character she wrote on a napkin while eating breakfast.

What did those people possess in common?

• They learned to strive toward their dreams with endless passion
• They maintained relentless enthusiasm for their ideas
• They stood in the “space” of courage of their convictions
• They stood in the “Eternality of relationship with life” to activate their courage

In other words, they surrendered to possibilities inherent within them.  They used their challenges as outlets to a greater good simmering within their minds.  As with the “Law of Attraction”, they incorporated others into their network.  When you gather two or more, you harness creative power.

Finally, each person, no different than you, no smarter than you, no more privileged than you—maintained effort over time.  They dreamed their dreams, then, day-by- day, they took action toward their destinies.  By applying these concepts, you too, march toward your dreams—one step at a time.

Bhutan in Asia sets the benchmark for living a “happy” life.  Its culture mandates that “happiness” holds the highest distinction in the realm of daily living.  Those citizens living in that country enjoy a much slower and quieter living pace.   They maintain a spiritual connection to their world.

(Light shining through the redwoods along Avenue of the Giants, CA.)

Thus, peace and harmony thrive among Bhutan’s citizens.  No murders, no headaches, no prescription drugs, no alcoholism, no gridlock, no air pollution, no slums and no social unrest.  When I visited that country, I came away with a “happiness factor” that thrives within me today.  I caught what they live and incorporated it into my own life in our high speed, high stress society.

How do they maintain “happiness” in a world racing toward some kind of destination on the horizon?

America features almost the opposite culture from Bhutan. Nearly everyone exceeds the speed limit on our nation’s highways.  Most Americans buy the fastest Internet provider on the market. They flip TV channels faster than a ping-pong game. Urgency dominates America’s fast food joints, laxatives and painkillers.

Pain sufferers buy 131 million doses of popular headache and pain relievers annually.

What makes the difference in the “happiness factor” in Bhutan and the “high stress factor” prevalent in American big cities?

Instead of hell bent to get there, try the Bhutan way of thinking about the quality of your life.  Even if you live in a big city, you may gather Mother Nature around you at your office with plants, fish aquarium and relaxed music.

At home, you may create peaceful scenes replete with flowers, plants and paintings that soothe your spirit.  You may create a backyard with a waterfall, birdbath and bird feeder.

You may create a “spiritual sandbox” whereby you may take off your shoes daily and thrust your feet into the “biorhythms of the universe” and re-synchronize your body to the pulse of the galaxy.

You may incorporate four quintessential decisions to shift your life from stress to peaceful living:

*  Tell yourself each day, “Life is good.”   Think primal, pure fountain, universal source and energy.  Remember your childhood when you played for the sheer joy of movement.  Re-introduce “play” into your daily schedule.  A walk along a trail, a quiet moment in your rocker, a swing in the park and bird watching by a pond.  Take delight in a dragonfly landing on a  Lilly pad.  Walk away from the dark night of the soul or anything bothering you—by your intellectual choice through practice.  Think of the good.

• Understand and appreciate that, “I am capable; I am joyful and I am enough.” Inadequacy and comparisons permeate a large swatch of American life—business, school and social gatherings.  This world today stems from comparisons with others.  You may choose to be at peace with yourself because you no longer compare yourself to or with anyone.  You cherish yourself because you are the only you in the world.
• You did not come to this planet to prove yourself.  You arrived in grand style to express yourself, laugh with life, create with life and entertain yourself with whatever passion(s) catches your fancy.   Once you seek and strike upon your passions—stress, anxiety and pain vanish into your rear view mirrors.
• Finally, like the Bhutanese people, you gather your happiness factor by engaging your “calming factor” via your connection to the natural world.  You impel yourself into wholeness by the little choices that build on your self-acceptance and finally, your freedom from headaches, pain and anxiety.

What absorbs or thrills you?  Okay, engage it. As you do, you feel captivated in life’s activities, which, in turn render happiness.  Recreate your life to your bearings.  Seek that which vibrates with your being.   Enjoy the miracle of life pulsating in every cell of your body.  As you do, you dwell within the “happiness factor” throughout all your days.

At some moments in our lives, we feel depressed or “low” from something that happened to us.  We might suffer a defeat on the sporting field.  We may lose a friend or spouse.  At some juncture, we may grieve our circumstance in a hopeless job or situation.

(Bob, my cycle mate, Lake Tenaya, Sierra Mount) Photo by Frosty Wooldridge

When the world contrives against us, our emotions may thrust us into emotional turmoil where “things” seem insurmountable. Depression drags us into a rut.  Please understand this fact:  no one possesses enough money, fame or power to overcome setbacks or failure at some juncture in his or her life.   No matter what your station in life: a movie starlit, world leader or the richest person on the planet, a dark cloud may descend upon you at any moment in your life’s journey.

That moment may precipitate from:

• You suffered defeat on the sports field, missed the final shot
• You failed in your attempt at love with someone, you suffered rejection
• You lost your job, missed a raise, got stuck in a bad position
• Someone cheated, or betrayed you,  or you failed at your highest calling

Some people dwell on their loss.  They feel stalled in a “funk” of melancholy that affects their daily living.  They may “groove” their unhappiness like a track on a CD until they find it difficult to pull out of the feeling.  It can become as critical as suicide or as unhealthy as the angry person who lashes out against others such as loved ones or friends.  Discouragement magnifies in numerous ways—most of them negative.

When something, someone or some condition discourages you, breathe-in that feeling.  Then, breathe-out that energy in a conscious process to release it from your mind.  Because that’s where discouragement lingers: in your mind, in your emotions and in your heart.

First of all, try to avoid amplifying a problem that causes your discouragement.  Define it, understand where it’s coming from and finally, appreciate it.  For example, one big movie star, in his screen debut discovered that the director cut him out of the movie.  Yet, when he entered the director’s office, he thanked the man for the incredible experience he enjoyed acting in the movie in a bit part.  The director, so impressed with Kevin Costner, wrote the young actor into the next movie, “Silverado”, where he became a huge star. Later, he acted in “Dances with Wolves”, which became a western classic.

You can accomplish the same success by how you handle your discouragement. Learn from it; release and grow. In the process, your gifts reveal themselves. Use any failure in your life as a stepping-stone to your own success.

Secondly, realize that life sustains those with a great sense of humor about themselves.  They know the game of life offers many forks in the road.  So, laugh often at the remarkable opportunities you enjoy during your stay on this planet for success, failure and choices.

Thirdly, in all discouragements, you must release the “feelings” and embrace your heart.  Whether you can do this by talking to a friend or loved one, in the end, you must come to terms with yourself and love yourself.   Your heart generates the current of self-acceptance and peace.

By engaging these three points, and allowing a little time for perspective, you grow out of despair into renewal.   Engage the concept of honesty toward yourself.  It calms your spirit.  Shift toward enthusiasm.  By taking that course, you cultivate your passionate fire within.    Take a conscious mental effort to step off the “discouragement” track by jumping your mind onto a new track or attitude.  Replace fear with faith.

Finally, realize that you live on Earth to work, to play and to enjoy yourself like few other creatures—because you possess the will to live a creative life.  You’re here to love, express and flow with the energies of life.  Make it a great ride!

The words you use define your mental acuity. The thoughts you think plant seeds that grow in your mind.  By engaging positive words and thriving thoughts—you propel your mind toward a bountiful harvest of daily living.  Plant these ideas into your mind for a renewal of your life, your energy and your outcomes.

(Fill your life with good, fresh, healthy ideas, thoughts and intentions)

In America today, you notice an endless stream of teens, college kids and employees looking down into their Smart phones.

At bars, women line the dance floor with a white light shining up into their faces from their phones as they stare into cyberspace. Many people walk into the woods with ear buds stuffed into their heads to vanquish any notion of a singing cardinal, chirping black bird or rippling of the rapids from a cascading stream.

They use their thumbs to write messages to some other person looking down into his or her phone awaiting communication blurted in truncated words. One aspect they all share in common: they cut themselves off from interacting with fellow human beings, friends and their community.

Such addictions create solitude; ultimately they create spiritual disconnection from life and finally, loneliness from personal contact.

We humans arrived at this juncture in history via a tribe, clan and/or community. We raised our children in the cultural container founded on human interaction, face-to-face and eye-to-eye.

In order to function, we need heart connection to our surroundings.

We need emotional attachment to other human beings. We need to feel a belonging in order to function positively in the world.

For parents willing to plant vibrant seeds in the gardens of their children’s minds, they must leave the Smart phone on the kitchen table. Play with their children at the park. Laugh while pushing them ever higher on the swing or race them down the slides or spin on the merry-go-round.

While out there in the park or on a hike in the woods, take off your shoes and thrust your feet into the cool grass. Slip out of your socks and plant your feet on a solid rock or into some moist sand. Reconnect your spirit with the vibrations of the universe. Enjoy a meaningful conversation with a friend while enjoying your connections to Mother Earth.

Instead of living inside the pitiless confines of a Smart phone, engage a child, stranger or friend in face-to-face conversation.

If you ever notice a “seed catalog”, the editors show you the results of the seeds via the bouquet of flowers. They invite you to see the results of what you plant in your garden.

The same applies with your mind. If you plant solitude via addiction to a Smart phone, you reap the coldness and lack of personal connection afforded by a face-to-face conversation.

You possess the power of decision. You infuse life with your love, empathy and creative energy. You may bring a message of empowerment by your personal interaction with others.

Therefore, choose what you plant in your mind.

• Plant happiness in your mind’s garden and express that flowering in your daily connection with others. A simple compliment to the grocery store cashier about her earrings brings a smile. A compliment to your neighbor about his beautiful lawn ushers special vibrations of happiness.
• Plant joy in your mind’s garden by celebrating a windy day by flying a kite in the local park. Share your Girl Scout Cookies with a homeless person on a street corner. Feed the ducks at the local pond or volunteer at the animal shelter.
• Spread good will in your home and community by your words and actions. Attend a city council meeting with ideas for improvements in the downtown area.

Remember that you create the container of community whereby men, women and children flourish by flowers you plant in your mind. When they flourish, your happiness, joy and good will spread to the four corners of the world.

While moving through childhood, oftentimes parents ask their kids, “What are you going to be when you grow up?”

(Sandi in front of the Grand Tetons, Wyoming) Photo by Frosty Wooldridge

Like most children, you didn’t possess a clue.  You didn’t know what you faced when you grew up let alone what you might become as a human being.

Nonetheless, you blurted out , “I’m going to be a fireman or nurse or baseball player.”

Everyone smiled while you spoke your answer.  In reality, most people don’t possess an inkling about their life-purpose.  Many lose any chance of pursuing their dreams because they get caught up in life by getting married, raising children and working a job.  They  chase their dreams after they retire.

What if you could live your dreams while living your life?   Any chance you could design your life around your dreams?

Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “Dare to live the life you have dreamed for yourself. Go forward and make your dreams come true.”

As you grow into your teens, 30s, 40s and older, explore your natural gifts.  You may be able to draw, sculpt or paint.  You may enjoy tremendous musical talent with a violin or guitar or French horn.  You may be a powerful athlete in swimming, tennis or triathlon.  You may be an exceptional teacher.

Take each gift, explore it and apply your time.  As you hone your gift, try to align it with your mental, emotional and spiritual power.  Explore it from different arenas.  For example, you may be able to paint exact replications of bodies in athletics. Or, you might love abstracts.  Attend an art museum with its multiple artists in every arena.  See what heightens your interest among the many.  Return home to apply your talents.

In that application, you may hit a “chord” in your nervous system, your heart and your intellect.  Once you hear the “chimes” flowing with your talents, pursue them with vigor.

During your pursuit of your dreams, avoid becoming the victim. “Oh, I can’t do that; I’m no good at that; I wish I could draw better, I wish I was more athletic,” you lament.

A big key to reaching your dreams stems from your sense of  the “colossal calling of your life.”

• Spend your time with affirmative thought and energy toward your dream.  Maintain a clarity of spirit and a sense of intention daily.
• Move with purposeful work toward your dream. Everything takes effort over time.  There’s an old saying, “The harder one works, the luckier one gets.”
• Affirm your worthiness every day with meditation, prayer or a daily walk.  You must accept and believe in yourself.
• Affirm your newness in the world.  Break out of judgment into acceptance.  That single act creates a confidence in your mind that drives your dreams forward.
• Speak to your inner self with positive ideas, thoughts and actions.
• Affirm your dreams to yourself, your family, your mate, your friends and to the world.

Finally, assert your partnership with the “Creative energy of the universe.”  Whatever your connection to the “Creator”, you may think, speak or co-partner with that entity.  Think of It “championing” you toward your destiny.

Accept that the energy that runs through the universe also runs through your body and co-partners with your imagination.   You harness that energy as a purposeful creative process that unfolds every single day of your life.

Along your path, stick your neck out.  Sniff the wind.   Harness your mind.  Call upon your muscles to engage.  Gaze upon the horizon with your eyes.  Remain alert to the creative process.

Your dream becomes your reality by your relentless, passionate and purposeful actions toward it.  Note: many of life’s failures were people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.

As Henry Ford said, “If you think you can, or you think you can’t—you are correct.”

Always understand that “I can! I will! I am!”

When coyotes howl outside your tent, that may be adventure.  While you trudge through the wilderness with a 40-pound pack, that could be deemed “adventure.”  While sweating like a horse as you pedal over a 12,000-foot pass, you might be living an adventure.

(Cycling Big Sur of West Coast, California, cliffs, ocean, whales, pelicans, otters.)

While you thrust your brush onto the canvas, you come face to face with artistic expression.   Perhaps a certain knot in a macramé project renders a new kind of adventure in your life.

When howling gale winds press your lips against your teeth while sailing into a raging storm, you face a mighty adventure.  You may stand on the edge of a mountain with sub-zero temperatures before plunging into a deep powder chute. That could be called “adventure.”

A new step on the dance floor may find you struggling with the beat of the music.  It could be defined as imaginative adventure.

But that’s not what makes an adventure!

You might ask, “Why not…what more do I have to do to create adventure in my life?”

Adventure begins where you define it.  It rolls into “being” by your actions toward your passions.  When you learn how to think “adventure” in whatever passion you pursue, you learn how to live adventure.

It is your willingness to struggle through it, to present yourself at the doorstep of Nature or in front of a canvas or mountain peak.  You might be a writer struggling with a plot or character. Adventure advances as you express it.

Can you think of any greater joy coming from life than living inside the “moment” of an adventure?  It may be a fleeting “high”, a stranger that changes your life, an animal that delights you or even frightens you, a struggle where you triumphed, or even failed, yet you braved the challenge.  Those moments present you uncommon experiences that give your life eternal expectation.

That’s adventure.

So where in your life do you find the calling of adventure that excites your soul?  What “turns on” every cell in your body?  What causes you to smile through your day?  How do you get “there”?

It’s known as the “perfect speed.”  It’s a thought pattern whereby you already know you reached your destination or dream or goal.   Everything you think must be twice created: first, the idea, which secondly moves into form.

For an example: you desire to climb a mountain, paint a picture or learn a new dance.

You must take baby steps by hanging with those who love mountain climbing. Learn from them. Start small and grow wise, grow smart and grow strong.

You love art?  Hang around artists. Engage a canvas, paper or clay.  Discover your passion in the arts.  Grow with someone who paints, sculpts or draws.  Spend hours on your own works.

You want to become a dancer?  Hit the closest studio. Take the classes.  Learn the basics.  Find your music style.  Soon, you glide around the dance floor to the eternal joy of music and movement.

In the beginning, middle or advanced portion of your life, you remain the author and visionary of your success, your joy and your happiness.

I’m reminded of three home plate umpires who bragged how they called balls and strikes:

The first said, “I calls them as I sees them.”

The second said, “I calls them as they are.”

The third said, “They ain’t nothin’ till I calls them.”

Remember that the only way you “gallop” into your dreams remains your call!  Charge onto the playing field with creativity, energy and courage.  The rewards magnify life to your highest and best.

In this high-speed society we created for ourselves, Americans live in traffic-congested cities with skyscrapers erupting into the sky.  On the ground floor, humans race to catch crowded busses, packed subways and Yellow Cabs.

With expressways gridlocked from dawn to dusk, people overflow sidewalks, and sirens slash through the air 24/7.  The evening news reports robberies, accidents, homicides and a plethora of calamities too numerous for human emotions to endure.

But if you look at all the people living in cities, whether in their workplace or their office cubicle, what do you see on the partition wall?

You see posters of what they would rather being doing: windsurfing, skiing, sunbathing on a beach in the Caribbean, scuba diving, dancing, mountain climbing, camping, rafting, bicycling and a dozen other activities they would rather be living.

If you’re one of those people “wishing” you lived a different life or wishing you could live your dreams, then why don’t you go after it?  Why not “live” your poster instead of wishing you were windsurfing across Lake Tahoe or sunning on the beach in Hawaii?

Did you ever wonder how those people you see traveling around the world with a backpack or bicycle, or climbing mountains or taking a winter off to go “ski bumming” do it?

They defeat the “tyranny of resistance.”

Henry David Thoreau said, “The mass of men and women live lives of quiet desperation.”

In 2019 America, anyone at any station in life, at any age, can renew his or her life by choice, by intention and by action.  Such individuals learn how to defeat the “tyranny of resistance.”

First of all, what constitutes this modern-day tyranny that locks people into “cubicle prisons” in cities or into humdrum jobs that provide zero meaning?

Such persons yield to an inner “resistance” to transform themselves because they feel afraid, don’t know how to break their cubicle-bonds and, often times, none of their office mates know any better.  It’s easier to be safe with the constancy and comfort of a paycheck and friends.

Do you remember the TV sitcom “King of Queens” with heavy weight Kevin James and co-star Leah Remini, who also suffered weight issues in the series, staged in New York City?  They never showed any happiness, but mostly conflict. Their jobs sucked.  They didn’t know how to escape their relationship or their jobs.

If you live such a scenario, how can you avoid a lifetime of regrets?

• Find your gift of what turns you on to life.  Discover your talent, your ability, your genius and your expertise.  You can find it by examining what you do in your spare time. Pursue it, love it and live it.
• Practice self-awareness.  Socrates said, “The unexamined life is not worth living.”  Instead of going through the motions, create your own wave and ride it.
• Incorporate your independent will as a “course correction” on your way to your life’s destination.  As Jack London said, “You can’t wait for inspiration to change your life; you have to go after it with a club.”
• Discover your “True North” in the scheme of your life.  That’s your soul’s “true knowing” and what you desire “most” about your life.  It’s your deepest truth.

Finally, you must engage your physical, emotional, mental and spiritual well-being.

Exercise daily to blow off excess energy in the body to release your mind to express itself.  Eat healthy foods to maintain a lean frame.  That, in turn, allows you emotional balance that originates with your relationship with friends, families and co-workers.  For your mental well-being, read books, take classes and express yourself through journaling, painting, sculpting or other art forms.  Finally, feed your spiritual being via inspirational books, church or nature, and the peace you find from a walk down a tree-lined path.

You will find the “tyranny of resistance” fades as you walk or gallop toward your happiness in work, play and friends.  You won’t “wish” for what you see in the poster on your cubicle wall, you will live it for real.

Six decades ago, a Swiss hiker named George de Mestral hiked through autumn colors with his dog. He crossed fields covered in milkweed, purple thistles, burrs, thorny branches and floating dandelion parachutes.

In the autumn, all plants release their seeds to the winds.  Others attach to animals for transport to other locations to begin anew.

(West Coast of Big Sur, California, cove with waterfall.) Photo by Frosty Wooldridge

When Mestral returned home, he noticed dozens of burr balls with hooks attached to his socks and his dog’s fur.  It took him 30 minutes to dislodge them from his clothing and the dog.

While pulling them off, he noticed each spine featured a hook at the end that embedded itself into anything passing near the plant.  Anything with fur picked up the seed and transported it to new fields.  His wool sock picked up the most “hooked” burrs.

He put two and two together! Voila, he created Velcro cloth fasteners.  Today, we use Velcro to secure our bicycle shoes, coats, fasten our backpacks and a thousand other uses.  He became a millionaire through his “creative dynamo” spinning around in his mind.

You can look throughout history to see innovations and inventions that popped up out of nowhere by average men and women who discovered an idea “out of the blue.”

By what process does an invention occur?  How can you apply it to your life?  What can you do with inventions you create?

Remember that everything must come from an “idea” before it can move into form.

Ideas fly around the universe waiting for someone to grab them and bring them to form.  Your mind constitutes a “net” that captures ideas.  You may remember that tiny, gold, winged ball in the Harry Potter books that flew around the stadium while students chased it on their broomsticks.

When that winged ball flies by your head, grab it!  Write down the idea.  Process it.  Play with it.  Move it into form.  It might be an idea for a magazine article if you are a writer. It might become a book.  If you make jewelry, you may create a stunning ring or necklace.  If you create macramé, you may discover a new design.   You may create a new painting, poem or sculpture.  You might design a new bicycle, airplane, car or boat.

In whatever realm you play, those ideas buzz around your head.  Capture them like Harry Potter captured the tiny, gold winged ball.

Never allow anyone to deter you or rain on your parade!

Years ago, a man attempted to make a “cooler” beach shoe that stayed on peoples’ feet.  He made it out of rubber with a cinch on the back.  He offered it in many colors.

Naysayers said, “That’s so ugly; it’s a crock!”

So, he named it a “Croc” and you know the rest of the story: billions of people wear his beach Crocs!

In order to engage your own creative dynamo, stay open to ideas via your open consciousness.  Realize that “form” emerges out of the invisible field of the universe.  It’s the playground of your mind.  It’s spontaneous and self-generating energy.

It’s known as the “Law of Mind.”  It’s the “emerging creative energy of the universe” and it flows through you. You can use it.  Uplift your life by up-leveling your thoughts.  By doing so, you will partner with the power of the universe.

• Open to the new “yes” in you.
• Fuel your creative dynamo with endless ideas from your experiences.
• Write them down, say them aloud, draw them, and work on turning them from thoughts to form.
• Reframe your sense of self.
• Understand and relish in the fact that you represent an endless fountain of ideas.
• Open to the magic.

The creative dynamo thrives in you by your receptivity.  As a writer, I look for new ideas daily.  Above my computer on the corkboard for the past 40 years, a small card reads: “The Idea Fairy may strike at any time—so be alert and write her idea down, so she will feel appreciated and come back often.”

Much of life in every civilization revolves around money, power and status.  Some youngsters enjoy instant success from their parents while others begin in poverty.  Everyone learns the ways of the world by the time they reach 18.

(Take a step into the future into unlimited expression and passion.)

They understand the inequities, discriminations and biases.  Some let their beginnings define them while others take action to change them.  Let’s face it; we all make comparisons.

I am reminded of a sewing circle of old Catholic women.  All carried great pride in their sons.

The first mother said, “I am so proud of my son.  He became a priest so when his parishners address him, they say “Father.”

The second mother proudly spoke up, “My son became a bishop so when his flock addresses him, they say “Your grace.”

The third mother bragged, “My son became a cardinal, so when his parishners address him, they say, “Your eminence.”  (“High nobility”)

The fourth mother straightened her frock while squaring her shoulders, “Well, my son is 6’2” and a Personal Trainer. When he walks into a room, the women gasp, “My God!”

No matter what your “station” or “status” in life, in America, you can rise from the ashes of your youth to become president of the United States. That’s been proven time and again.

What propels such success by individuals?  First of all, make the positive assumption and understanding that “life” supports you.  The energies of life and the universe get behind you and assist you in flourishing your well-being.  Once you understand that fact, you may utilize the powers of living to engage your ultimate triumphs.

What does that mean as far as application?

No matter your origins whether rich, poor or in-between, you must change your thoughts toward the positive. That, in turn, changes your words to evolving concepts. As you pick up speed with a mind-set and word-set change, you re-arrange the energy of your mind toward fulfillment.

Understand that “good” works in your life. Feel gratitude for your opportunities.  Stand for excellence in all you say and do.  Open to the healing energy of living.  Meditate daily. Accept that you move forward in perfect harmony with living.

While many religions preach wickedness and evil, in the 21^st century you enjoy the ability to learn, grow and evolve.  Seek the golden thread of truth of the oneness, infinite and divine in you.  Remember that thought creates form in your life.   The way you think becomes the way you live.

How to proceed toward success and happiness

While many see limitations in their lives, and that becomes a habit, you must engage the “high watch” in your mind.  Disengage from the “old stories” of defeat and frustration.  “My parents didn’t to this or that…I got beat up…I failed because the teacher disliked me….”

Guide your thoughts until they become positive all the time.  You maintain total control of your life’s ship and you captain it toward your destination.

Empower your new story by changing your old vision to a new vision.  What do you really want to do with your life?  What job would give you joy and energy?  Create it; live it; realize it.   You grow into the hero of your life by your thoughts and actions.

Realize an invisible world of energy moves through you, for you and with you.  It thrives with the attitudes and actions of your mind.  Tune out negative “old thinking” and move toward greater abundance in your mind, health, work and achievements.

What hero inspires you?  Read about his or her trials and tribulations.  How did that hero succeed?  What gave them the power to triumph?  Do you want to find love? Read Marrianne Williamson’s A Return to Love. 

Want to live a dynamic daily life?  Read Dan Millman’s book: No Ordinary Moments.

Want to live a life of adventure?  Read and activate the five concepts and six practices in How to Live a Life of Adventure by Frosty Wooldridge.

Take these ideas and apply them to your daily life. You will find that an invisible world of caring propels you to your ultimate happiness.

“How you doin’ Jack (or Jill)?”  I asked a recreation-center friend last week.

(In life, you can choose dark clouds or you choose flowers.  Choose flowers in your thoughts and daily living with a positive mental attitude.) Photo by Frosty Wooldridge

“Same ole, same ole,” he said.

“Come on man,” I said.  “We’ve got bicycle season in full swing.  That’s got to put a spring in your step.”

“Probably so,” he said.  “But I need something new to fire me up.”

He begged the question: why do some people find great joy in living while others find endless labor in their lives?

I think many beleaguered people pick up “leftover thinking” much like they eat “leftover” vittles from Thanksgiving.  While it may taste all right, it doesn’t provide the vibrancy of the initial meal.

President Thomas Jefferson once said, “We’ve got a wolf by the ears. We can’t keep him and we can’t let him go.  Both options remain dangerous.”

In this fast-paced age, we may harbor “leftover thinking” such as “I’m not good enough” or “Am I enough?” or “I don’t measure up to others.”

Some great philosopher said, “We find two wolves fighting in our minds.  The good wolf and the bad wolf.”

A student asked, “Which one wins?”

The teacher said, “The one you feed.”

Which leads to the question:  how to you change your leftover thinking?

Remember that form follows thoughts.  What you think determines how you feel.  Thoughts create ideas and attitudes.   No matter what your situation, you can choose to feed the wolf that will move you forward.

It’s starts with the P.A.C.E. Concept: Positive Attitude Changes Everything.

In order to become a person who relishes daily living, you enjoy the choice to create a “Positive” mindset.  You may feed the “animal” in your mind with your highest and best thoughts.  You may be an introvert or an extrovert.  By changing your thinking, you brighten and enliven every cell in your body.  By changing your thoughts to positive energy, you create a positive outcome.

“How was your weekend, dude?” a friend asked.

“Man, we danced, bicycled, played games and went to the movies,” you responded.  “Can’t wait to see what happens next.”

See the difference?  The world or friends or even enemies may not change, but you change in how you handle and deal with them.  Another philosopher noted that the winds may shift on the ocean, but it’s how you set your sails that determines your destination.

To further your feeding the “good” wolf, you may engage the enlightened “Attitude” mindset.   If it’s a rainy day, you may dance to a sunny environment by appreciating that rains bring green grass and flowers.  You get to release what doesn’t work.  You enjoy a choice of “atmosphere” for your day.

On a rainy day, you might dig into your favorite book, an old movie or Skype a dear friend.  Feed the good “attitude” wolf inside your mind.  The “sad” wolf lopes away.

Third on the list of the “good” wolf comes your choice of “Changes” mindset.  By changing your thinking you change your outcome.  It takes some work, however, in time, you re-groove your mindset into happy thoughts that bring happy enzymes to your cells, which translate into every aspect of your body.

Let life know you love living by making choices that benefit you at any given moment.

Finally, your first three options create the “Everything” mindset transformation.  One old friend of mine said it this way, “S + R= O”.  In other words, “Situation” plus your “Response” equals Outcome.  That simple equation changes everything!

With these four aspects of the P.A.C.E. Concept, you may handle any drama, any world condition, any family situation, every challenge and daily living.

Finally, share a feeling of expressed gratitude daily in your meditation, prayer or quiet moments.  You may be a humanist, spiritual person or very religious.  Gratitude works in your mind to comfort your spirit.  Appreciate the gratitude within you, in front of you, in back of you, to the left of you, to the right of you, below you and above you.

“What’s happenin’ dude (dudette)?”  a friend asked.

“I’m feeling great!” you respond.

Life is good!

At the beginning of my presentations on “How to Live a Life of Adventure” at high schools, colleges, civic clubs and church groups, my first words exclaim, “I live a spectacular life!”

After the audience digests such brash words, I invite each person to repeat for himself or herself, “I live a spectacular life!”

(Continental Divide, Rocky Mountains, Colorado, sunset) Photo by Frosty Wooldridge

They repeat the words, but with unease, consternation and even trepidation.  It’s a bit difficult to make a bold statement on how you live your life.   You might be living a dull life, average existence and even, a difficult life.  You may face challenges that seem to consume, daunt and defeat you.

So, how do you bottle your internal lightning energy?  How do you go out into life to skin your knees in the face of eternity?

First, your 80 years on this planet constitute your personal eternity.  That means you choose what happens, how it happens and for how long.  You choose to learn as much as you can during your schooling.  You choose to care for your body-temple by your actions or inactions.  You choose to eat, drink and nourish your being with healthy foods and fellowship of friends. You choose to fill your spirit with your own options of connection to the natural world.

Second, harness your youthful exuberance not only in your teen years, but choose to maintain your energies throughout your entire life.  It’s been said, “Life deals you high and low cards, but you play with the hand you’re dealt.  You can bluff your way through or you can play it straight. Either way, you win or lose on your chosen merits, talents, skills, education and actions.

Third, choose your words and thoughts wisely.  Choose your friends with care.  Hang with others that carry their own “bottled lightning.”  For starters, what defines bottled lightning?

Think of the energy that explodes through your body when you work on a project that you love.  It may be working on your car, creating a bookshelf in a woodcraft class, writing a poem or volunteering at a homeless shelter. It might encompass a math class, sports of all kinds, dancing or yoga.  It may be a novel or a Shakespearean play.

Include its concepts into your inner passions, drive and creative living.  You may choose that “bottled lightning” drive throughout your life. Once you feel it, you know it. Once you know it, you own it.  From that point onward, apply it to your work, play and quiet times.

For example: this past spring, I carried my passion for long distance bicycle travel along the West Coast of America. I pedaled nearly 2,000 from Canada to Mexico.  Each day, I pedaled up hills and coasted down hills. I traveled through sunshine and rainstorms. I pushed into headwinds and enjoyed tailwinds.  I witnessed stunning sunrises and sunsets.  I met fantastic people and several “otherwise” people.  Each day, I expected great moments.

At one point on the Big Sur south of San Francisco, known for its incredibly rugged mountainous cliffs that tower over the crashing surf—I stopped at a vista point overlooking a lagoon 150 below me.  Another traveler yelled out, “They’re spouting!”  I looked down to see a 30-ton Grey whale surface for air.  For an added treat, a calf spouted right alongside its mother.  I snapped several pictures as they played between the seaweed and waves rolling in from the wide Pacific Ocean.

I muttered to myself, “Spectacular!”  Indeed, at that moment, I lived a spectacular life because I took a chance. I pedaled my bike down the West Coast.  I opened myself up to the energies of the universe.  Do you think it’s easy to pedal a bike across a continent?  Is it a cakewalk to ride in a rainstorm?   Answer: a cyclist faces every kind of challenge you can imagine, just like your own life.

In the same high vibrational frequencies, you enjoy the same possibilities in your spectacular life.  It might be travel or raising a child. It might be your Zumba Dance Class or playing the piano.  Discover your “bottled lightning” in your pursuit of happiness.

Now, repeat after me with certitude, enthusiasm and genuine confidence, “I live a spectacular life!”

Millions of Americans live their lives with low self-esteem.  Teenagers learn it from one or both parents.  Others choose it by comparing themselves with movie stars.  Many young women mutter to themselves, “I’m not good enough…I’m not as pretty as Becky the captain of the cheerleading squad…I’m not smart enough to pull top grades.”

(Go ahead, kiss the girl, kiss the guy in the Valley of the Gods because you chose high self-esteem)  Photography by Frosty Wooldridge

Often, young men drink booze to numb their frustrations from not being handsome, athletic or academically successful.  They hang with the wrong crowd or stay home where they find solitude.  Too often, teenagers of both sexes compare themselves to others.

Low self-esteem may be one of the greatest detriments to personal success socially, mentally and/or economically.  But, since it’s a learned behavior, it can be unlearned and changed.

Recently, one of my lifelong friends, the successful author of three published books, visited me in Golden, Colorado.  That night, after dinner on our deck, he and I reminisced about our college days together.  We both became teachers.  During the conversation, I asked him about his fourth book.

“I can’t seem to motivate myself to finish the book,” he said.  “I’m still dealing with low self-esteem.”

Mind you, this man earned a world record in one category of weight lifting. He earned a Master’s degree in advanced education.

He reared four highly successful children.  His wife elevated herself to a world-class artist through his encouragement.

“So, Paul, are you going to coast your way to the doorstep of death?” I asked.   “Are you going to waste your literary gifts because of low self-esteem?  What’s the value in that choice?  Why would you squander your gifts because somewhere along the line, you bought into the ‘low self-esteem’ train, and you’re still riding it?”

“I’m not sure how to figure it out and how to get off the train,” he replied.

“It’s amazing,” I said.  “All my life, I’ve been accused of being too over-confident and self-assured.  Some call me brash.  I never thought of myself as inferior to anyone or anything.  Plus, I never compared myself to anyone.  In my youth, my dad put his arm around my shoulder when I faced difficult challenges. He said, ‘You can do that son’.  That became my truth.  Maybe you could borrow that ‘truth’ and incorporate it into you own life.  It’s more fun to live a life of high self-esteem. It creates a higher vibrational frequency in your daily life. It makes you happy. It makes you creative.  It allows you to laugh often.  It allows you to move toward your highest and best.”

“I never thought about it that way,” said Paul.

How do you escape low self-esteem?

First, change your view of yourself. Are you a victim or a product or a tragedy?  You decide.  You choose your relationship with any of your challenges or situations.  In the end, the universe doesn’t bequeath you a positive or negative thought pattern. You choose it and you live it.  Either way, you evolve your life by your choices. If you run from something, it consumes you. When you face it, you devour it.

Second, choose by daily habit to up-level your intentions for your world.   Choose to value every problem, disaster and defeat.  Use the gifts of defeat to grow your life.  At your funeral, would you feel good when your best friend spoke about you in the eulogy, “Paul lived a so-so life because he chose low-self-esteem, which buried any chance of living a truly remarkable life.  He wasted so many of his incredible talents.”

Third, no matter how tough the problem, you choose the solutions and engage the intention to grow.   Remember that an answer exists for every challenge in your life.

Fourth, unbridle your dreams.  Henry David Thoreau said it best, “If you advance confidently toward your dreams, and endeavor to live the life which you have imagined, you will meet with success unexpected in common hours. You will pass through invisible boundaries. You will engage new and liberal laws. And you will live with the license of a higher order of beings.”

Fifth, consciously open to the joy, happiness and creative energy of your life by shedding the ‘low self-esteem’ skin to engage a ‘high self-esteem’ energy field around your heart, mind and body.

Finally, you write the next chapter of your life by your hand and by your choices.  Engage the power of brave thoughts.

Most people stumble through their teens, stagger through their twenties and meander into their thirties.  By forty, they suffer a mid-life crisis before bumping into the Big “5”  “0”.

(On life’s highway, you meet wonderful people co-creating their lives. Hang out with people who love living, thrive at every venture and love to share their secrets. Keep listening and then, take action.)

From 50, they face the last third of their lives with a sense of a downhill slide.  Most never lived any “great” moments or vanquished any dragons let alone navigated a great sailing ship called the Black Pearl like Captain Jack Sparrow.  None took off through space like the Next Generation on the Starship Enterprise.

Most Americans enjoy two-week vacations with scant time to climb Mt. Everest or raft the Amazon.  Others feel so locked into their jobs that nothing or no one can change their fate.

What if teens and twenties changed the course of their existence by co-creating their lives with a greater power, a higher understanding and a plan to enjoy their way of life?

Captain Jean Luc Picard said, “Time is a companion that goes with us on a journey. It reminds us to cherish each moment, because it will never come again. What we leave behind is not as important as how we have lived.”

Breathe that statement into your spirit.  Incorporate it into your mind.  Engage it with your passions.

What turns you on in your daily existence?  What moves you to action? What calls you?

For every human being on Earth, a little engine inside calls for “something” to activate a life-calling.  How do you find out which path calls you?

What heroes do you follow?  Why?  What great moments in history move you? How do you feel when you study a certain subject?  What books engage your interest?  What famous movie role inspires you?

It’s my contention that you discover your life path by following the slightest thread of your desires.  From there, you make your intentions.

If you remember Star Wars, Luke Skywalker landed his fighter space craft in a bog where the fabled Yoda lived on some far-flung planet. The bog felt dense, steamy, depressing and foreboding.  Luke’s spacecraft sank into the muck.

After some time, Yoda discovered the young Luke Skywalker.

“Why have you come?” asked Yoda.

“I need to know how to engage the Force,” replied Skywalker.

“You must believe in yourself,” said Yoda.  “The Force moves in and through you. It engages every cell in your body.  You must open up to something better.  You must open to and flow with your beliefs.  You need to align with your higher energies.  The universe moves in your favor. Understand and harness that Force.”

“But how?” asked Skywalker.

“You see your fighter space craft stuck in the bog?” asked Yoda.

“Yes, it’s stuck,” said Skywalker.  “Just like me with the Force.”

“You must open to the creative energies of the Force,” said Yoda. “You must surrender and receive.  You must believe. In the end you must weave your own story.”

“That’s a bunch of grand claptrap,” said Skywalker.

“Okay, use the Force to lift your craft out of the bog and set it on dry land,” said Yoda.

“I’ll try,” said Skywalker.

He engaged his mind. The craft moved a little, but quickly, Skywalker gave up.

“I don’t think I can do it,” said Skywalker.

“You can’t just ‘try’ young Luke Skywalker,” said Yoda.  “You must know you can do it.”

With that, Yoda raised his hands, aimed his mind at the craft, and lifted it out of the bog onto dry land.”

“I don’t believe it,” said Skywalker.

“That’s why you failed in your own attempt,” said Yoda.

On this long journey of your life, you must co-create your life path with the creative energy within you.  You possess all the tools and all the ingenious energy to engage a positive, useful, purposeful and happy life.

Open to possibilities daily, engage the flow, and receive the favors of the universe. Finally, weave your story toward co-creating your dynamic life. Take action toward your chosen destiny.

Americans living in big cities race through their days with gridlocked traffic, honking horns, cheeky taxi drivers, police sirens and jostling pedestrians racing toward their destinations.  At work, they juggle temperamental co-employees, deadlines and ashes-in-the-mouth bosses.

Once finished with work, they race home to spouses, kids and dinner preparations.  The working groove consumes them while their responsibilities for daily living press their emotions to the wall.  With all the automobiles, appliances and conveniences in America—we oftentimes lack peace and quiet in our lives. As we race through our metropolitan arenas, even optimists admit that science will be hard pressed to replace this precious spiritual commodity:  solitude.

How can we step back to an oft forgotten pleasure in our lives, in our hearts and in our minds?  How can we refresh our spirits? 

John Stuart Mill writing in 1848 when cities remained smaller, less hurried and enjoyed more community among their residents said, “It is not good for man to be kept at all times in the presence of his species. A world from which solitude is extirpated, is a very poor ideal.

Solitude, in the sense of being often alone, is essential to any depth of meditation or of character; and solitude in the presence of natural beauty and grandeur, is the cradle of thoughts and aspiration which society could do ill without.”

If you feel the same way in your journey, the quest for solitude grows as you add birthday candles.  A certain spiritual bliss accompanies your advancing years.  Solitude brings divine calm and intellectual clarity. To abridge your life creates more simplicity in your daily rigor.  Once mastered, you will enjoy an inner peace and an outer enjoyable countenance.

How does anyone move his-her body, mind and soul into solitude?

• Take a daily walk in the nearest park in your city.  Sit under a tree. Sit by a pond.  Stare into a patch of flowers.  Pull up a long stalk of grass and stick it into your mouth. Suck the green insides of the stalk of grass to feel the heartbeat of the universe pulsing over your tongue.
• When you reach a stretch of grass or forest; take off your shoes and socks. Stab your feet into deep grass or sand or rock.  Let your body reconnect with the vibrations of the Earth to re-harmonize your entire body’s vibrations with our planet.  Many call it “grounding” and it works profoundly to refresh your spirit.
• Choose the best time of day for your “solitude” moments.  It may be early before work as you sit by a river, stream or on the beach.  It could be a stroll along a quiet walk at dusk where the sun’s final glory mesmerizes your spirit.
• While solitude means being alone in the “moment”, you might be one who loves solitude with another who shares your “heart strings” about life.  By all means, make your “solitude moments” a couple-thing if that works for you.
• The point of solitude means to be luxuriously immersed in the quiet moments of your own choices.  You become fully aware of being alive without being ushered into the scurry of daily living.

In my own hiking times through the woods in acceptance of solitude, I feel the “sweet spot” of temperature playing upon my skin. I feel the essence of light shining through my eyes.  I accept my quiet essence pulsing into the energies of life.  Once I reconnect with every blood cell charging through my body, I churn with delight.

Therefore, walk into the woods, the park, along the river or by a pond to discover solitude.  You will enjoy renewed strength to enjoy your days.

It’s been said that a “best friend” constitutes a miracle of the universe.

During your lifetime, you attach to certain individuals who “mesh” with you mentally, spiritually and physically.  At first, you share the weather, sports, latest boyfriend or girlfriend and the latest event on the local or national scene.  As time passes, you become attached because you share deeper feelings, concerns, triumphs and fellowship.

Your friendships may revolve around a beer, wine or dancing.  You might go for a walk, a bicycle ride or the movies.  You might backpack, ski or raft a river.  You share moments of danger, serenity or wonder at a sunset.  During those times, you develop feelings through laughter, stories and shared opinions on an array of topics.

Friendships develop for a short time, a long time or a lifetime.  Each friendship provides you with life energy, inspiration, fellowship or companionship.  You might enjoy wise advice.  You may enjoy laughter.

Your friends pull you through good times, bad times, heartache and heartbreak.  Most individuals don’t think about their friendship—until they face loss of one.

At some point, you may lose a short-term friendship because you didn’t nourish it.  Friendships need watering or emotional deposits into the “heart bank.”  This inquiry revolves around examining the character of your various connections.   You may value solid relationships so you periodically watch the dance within your relationships to make sure you maintain your part of creating a solid, equitable bond.  Obviously, this requires being able to step back to witness your behavior within that friendship. For example, you might ask:

Are you monopolizing the dialogue and thus not aware of the tone of the energy field between you and your friend, thus not actually present to the message of your friend?   You may have done this with the result of a drain in the sweet energy and feeling between your friend and you, yielding disconnection.

Are you not speaking your opinion or feelings in order to keep the peace and avoid their anger or sadness?  Are you gauging your sharing and truth-telling only on what you think safest to share?  Do your actions exhibit your authentically showing up in the friendship?

At times we choose the ‘low road’ simply due to lacking skill-sets for how to negotiate conversations that will ruffle another.  Anyone who does not ‘stand in our own moccasins’ will certainly bring opinions and feelings that clash with ours at some point.  When we do not understand another’s position, the more authentic and honorable offering may be to just say we do not know how to handle the disparity but are committed to exploring so we can understand.

This adage reflects the friendship idea: each individual within the dynamic must make regular deposits to keep the connection thriving: e.g., deposits of goodwill, compliments, phone calls to make a time to see each other, especially when the other seems to be over-withdrawing our account.

In this time of cell phones, emails and other electronic “coldness”, you must decide on face-to-face time in order to fulfill a deep friendship that lasts longer than a “tweet” or “chat” or “stumble.”

Direct communication creates wholesome connection.  Who of us does not know that connections lose playful energy when issues are swept under the rug and the other person not well listened to?  The emotional account becomes strained.  Do you want real connection?  You betcha!

Do you? If so, are you willing to become more aware?  The result will be the safeguarding precious, creative friendships.

To sit around a campfire with a stick while you poke the glowing embers before you, may be one of the most tangible of all visible mysteries of the universe.  You stare into pulsing energy that feeds your soul.  Warmth comforts your sense of belonging to the wilderness. You feel peace of mind caressing your spirit.  Surrounding your fire, a cathedral of trees towers into the ink-black of space.  Twinkling stars enlighten your imagination.  A full moon balances the evening with a symphony of popping embers, leaping flames and curling smoke reaching into the evening enchantment.

(Few joys in life beat sitting around a campfire with your friends on a chilly night and a starry sky with a pot of stew simmering on the coals and campfire stories flying around like magic to bring laughter, joy and fellowship.)

Sitting with you, friends stare into the same flames, thinking their own thoughts and enjoying the soothing vibrations of the universe.

I have sat by thousands of campfires in my life and each time, I see God looking back at me. I see life sharing itself.  I see living creation burning brightly.  I see marshmallows, bubbling stew and hot chocolate waiting to warm my body.  I share conversations with friends and strangers that have become my friends.

I see Uwe Rothe, John Brown, Gerd Bollig, Gary Hall and Doug Armstrong.  I see Robert, Bob, Gerry and Dave. I see Sandi, Sarah, Ashly and Pam. I see the universe glowing with life, light, warmth and fellowship.

Every campsite that houses men, women or beasts—enjoys a glorious, starry firmament for a roof.   That black sky dotted with stars offers constellations, songs and myths from humanity from the beginning to the present.  The fire-pit becomes the focal point for fellowship and conversation.

Every summer, I cycle, backpack or raft into the deepest recesses of the wilderness.  I discover God staring at me from every branch, tree and bird on the wing.

At Glacier National Park this summer, I asked a ranger, “Do you see God up here in the wilderness?”

He answered, “The more I walk these woods, the more I see God every day.  I see God in the hummingbirds, bear and elk.  Funny thing about God; a person only need look at all creation in a campfire.  It’s that simple for me.  I hope I answered your question.”

“You did,” I said.

That night, my cycling friend Robert and I pitched camp on the plains of northern Montana. We found a spot off the road in a stand of aspen.  The rolling terrain looked like sand dunes covered in golf-course-smooth grass.  First, we pitched our tents.  Next, we gathered wood for the campfire. We built a circular stone firebreak.  Robert filled the pit with kindling; next larger sticks and then, he lit a match.  Within minutes, we sat on two stone seats while we cooked our dinners over the flames licking the evening air.

Above us, a brilliant sunset in the west shot gold across the heavens and back-lit horsetail clouds galloping across the last of the day and huge thunderheads to the east.

“Man, this is one of the best sunsets I have ever seen,” Robert said.

“It doesn’t get any better than this,” I said poking the embers with my stick.

Life glows around the embers of a campfire.  Make your own and poke the glowing coals to discover your own answers to the mysteries of creation. You will find yourself sailing the celestial spaces of the universe without leaving any tracks.

If you work in a school, company, fast food joint, office or any other organization that forces you into contact with other people—you must deal with one or two characters that drive you nuts.  They may be arrogant, rude, aggressive or impudent.

(Don, Frosty, Gerry at Multnomah Falls, Columbia River Gorge.)

They offer you frustrations and, at the same time, lessons on your journey through life.

Did you hear of the older lady driving a Cadillac who aimed her automobile toward a slot in the parking lot near the store?  Seconds before she pulled into the space, a young man zipped into her spot in his shiny sports car.

She yelled, “That was my spot you just took.”

“Tough lady,” he said. “I’m younger, quicker and drive a faster car. Deal with it!”

“I will young man,” she said as she slammed her Caddie into reverse, then, back into “Drive.”

She crashed into the back of his sports car—pulverizing it. She backed up and smashed into it two more times.

“You just ruined my car,” he screamed.  “Why did you do that?”

“Because I’m old, rich and insured,” she yelled.  “Besides, you needed a lesson in manners.”

In life, we find who people who march into our lives become friends, acquaintances and/or irritations; depending on their propensities.  Some teach us lessons.  They may bring us laughter, joy and anger.

What do you do when someone enters your life that drives you nuts?  How do you deal with an obnoxious office mate, sibling, parent or teaching colleague?

First of all, you must realize that living on this planet offers you a “spiritual boot camp” that tests your ability to grow from one task to the next.  Every person along the way offers new challenges and lessons.

We maintain responsibility for our own story.  We may dance with a weak or wounded self-concept.  We may need to be right all the time or protect our image. Or, we can become victims.

You enjoy choice of response to people who irritate you.  If your mother irritates you, the easiest method for you to come to terms: sit down with her, talk to her, set the guidelines by which you expect her to act around you and make sure she appreciates your boundaries.

With an office mate that bothers you: sit down, ask them about their passions, their frustrations and their goals.  After they provide you with their priorities, you can better gage your response to their actions. Additionally, by showing you care about their lives, you can spell out what you like and don’t like as to interaction in the office.

You must welcome the new you.  Become available to something more. You must forgive others who lack balance. Choose a new perspective.  You must give them a chance.  You may speak in a new and conscious manner.

This topic reminds me of the story of a very irritating and perfectionist Italian mother who brought up her son Alberto by herself.  She demanded that everything be “just so.”  During dinner, Alberto loved to talk with his grandfather, but as the old man grew more infirmed, he broke a soup bowl because of his palsy.  She banished him to the kitchen to eat alone.

Thereafter, Alberto hurried his dinner so he could talk with his grandfather in the kitchen. One night, the old man broke another bowl.  At that point, she relegated him to a wooden bowl, which demoted him to the lowest rung on the social ladder.

One night, Alberto failed to show up for dinner.  When she found him in his bedroom, he sat on the bed carving a piece of wood into a bowl.

“Why didn’t you come to dinner tonight?” she asked.  “Don’t you know it’s rude to miss dinner?”

“Sorry mama,” said Alberto.

“What are you carving?” she asked.

“I am carving a bowl for you when you get to grandfather’s age,” said Alberto.

From that day onward, the mother invited grandfather back to the table to share in the family dinner and mentor her son Alberto.

Thomas Jefferson said, “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men and women are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”

(Gary Hall, bicycling from Nord Cap, Norway, 600 miles north of the Arctic Circle, over 3,500 miles to Athens, Greece—asking for directions from some Italian men sitting in the park.)

Through all of human history, ordinary people longed for the mythical ideal to be happy, to live a fulfilling life and to enjoy the fruits of their talents.

For the first time in history via Thomas Jefferson and the founding fathers of America—ordinary people suddenly enjoyed the “right” to pursue their happiness in their own ways, at their own speed and at their own choices.

As an ordinary citizen of America, my life path carried me into amazing places. My choices allowed me to come into contact with some remarkable people who espoused “how” to live a happy life.  I share their ideals with you in order for you to incorporate them into your own life—and prosper with happiness.

Henry David Thoreau said, “If you advance confidently toward your dreams, and endeavor to live the life which you have imagined, you will meet with success unexpected in common hours.  You will pass through invisible boundaries.  You will engage new and liberal laws.  And you will live with the license of a higher order of beings.”

I read that quote every morning before my day begins. I inculcate the essence of the message into my brain cells and my thought patterns.  I make plans, I prepare to carry them out and I pursue them confidently.   At first, I met with many obstacles with my dream to bicycle on all seven continents.  Those difficulties became stepping stones to my ultimate success because of my “advancing confidently” toward my dreams.  Successes “popped up” in the creative field of life at the most unexpected hours.

Somewhere along your own journey, by incorporating Thoreau’s wisdom, you will pass through invisible boundaries.  Once you make the transition, you will engage new and liberal laws in your daily activities. Your thought patterns change to increasingly more abundant and creative vibrations.  Those vibrations propel you toward living with a higher order of beings—in other words, you transform via your thoughts.  You become how you think.  You manifest what you imagine.

Jack London said, “I would rather be ashes than dust. I would rather my spark burn out in a brilliant blaze than be stifled by dry rot. I would rather be a superb meteor; every atom in magnificent glow—rather than a sleepy and permanent planet.  The proper function of man-woman is to live, not merely exist. I shall use my time.”

I read aloud this second secret to happiness daily. I engage the energy of London’s wisdom for squeezing every second out of every day.  That may mean contemplative thought and grateful moments versus quickening intensity.  I understand that each moment of living constitutes a marvelous endowment.

You too, enjoy the miracle of living.  By incorporating the first and second secrets, you change the vibrations in your mind, in your heart and in your spirit.    You transition into an entirely new and creative realm of thought and creative process.  London understood it in his vivacious living and his enthralling literary pursuits.  His book Martin Eden lives inside me since I read it 40 years ago.  London inspired me and still does to this day.

Goethe said, “Whatever you can do, or dream you can do, begin it.  Boldness has genius, power and magic in it. Begin it now.”

Actions drive your coveted dreams to reality, which drive your life toward fulfillment.  While engaging your mind to harness your dreams, you take actions that connect you to your happiness.  By channeling the creative energy of the universe, you live a happy life.

Most people stumble through their teens, stagger through their twenties and meander into their thirties.

By forty, they suffer a mid-life crisis before bumping into the Big “5”  “0”.

From 50, they face the last third of their lives with a sense of a downhill slide. Most never lived any “great” moments or vanquished any dragons let alone navigated a great sailing ship called the Black Pearl like Captain Jack Sparrow. None took off through space like the Next Generation on the Starship Enterprise.

(Al and Frosty on the Colorado Trail at 11,000 feet)

Most Americans enjoy two-week vacations with scant time to climb Mt. Everest or raft the Amazon. Others feel so locked into their jobs that nothing or no one can change their fate.

What if teens and twenties changed the course of their existence by co-creating their lives with a greater power, a higher understanding and a plan to enjoy their way of life?

Captain Jean Luc Picard said, “Someone once told me that time stalks us throughout our lives.  I rater believe that time is a companion that goes with us on a journey. It reminds us to cherish each moment, because it will never come again. What we leave behind is not as important as how we have lived.”

Breathe that statement into your spirit. Incorporate it into your mind. Engage it with your passions.

What turns you on in your daily existence? What moves you to action? What calls you?

For every human being on Earth, a little engine inside calls for “something” to activate a life-calling.  How do you find out which path calls you?

What heroes do you follow? Why? What great moments in history move you? How do you feel when you study a certain subject?  What books engage your interest? What famous movie role inspires you?

It’s my contention that you discover your life path by following the slightest thread of your desires. From there, you make your intentions.

One such young lady wanted to fly an airplane. As she grew up, she used a doll for her co-pilot, which she placed next to her in her “airplane” with two seats in her room. As she grew older, she kept the doll next to her and carried it with her when she attended college. After college, she gained work at an airport, but couldn’t afford flying lessons. Nonetheless, she made friends with pilots and trainers alike. At all times, she kept her doll with her to remind her of her dream to fly.

As fate entered the picture, she became an assistant to a veteran airline pilot trainer. She worked hard, showed up on time, stayed late and kept the books in order. After a year of watching her, he offered her some time in a flight simulator. Soon, she showed her adept skills as a pilot that impressed the trainer. He offered to take her up in a single engine plane for flight training.  She earned, scraped and saved money for pilot lessons. After two years, she gained her pilot’s license. At all times, her doll sat with her in the cockpit.

Soon, she learned how to pilot a twin engine plane. She flew clients all over the country. With that money, she learned to pilot a 747 with the same trainer who started her out years before. When she received her license to pilot a 747, she earned a job with a major airline. Today, as an international 747 airline pilot, she visits places all over the world. With her, that same doll, that same dream, that same intention rides in the cockpit with her. In fact, she is a friend of mine and wrote a book “Chick in the Cockpit” which publishes later next year.

Ask yourself: What dream has your name on it?

On this long journey of your life, you must co-create your life path with the creative energy within you. You possess all the tools and all the ingenious energy to engage a positive, useful, purposeful and happy life.

Open to possibilities daily, engage the flow, and receive the favors of the universe. Finally, weave your story toward co-creating your dynamic life. Take action toward your chosen destiny.

“While taking a hike down a country road near dusk in my teens, an old farmer, plodding along with his walking stick, abruptly stopped me. His wrinkled-weathered skin did not diminish the energy in his clear blue eyes. Silver locks flowed from his wide-brimmed hat while his peppered beard gave him a majestic air of wisdom.

“Where you goin’ sonny?” he asked.

(Frosty Wooldridge in front of Thunder Jack the Mountain Man, on Route 287)

“Just taking a walk to catch a few fire-flies when the night settles in on us,” I said. “They seem to show their magic just as the sun goes down, but before the stars come out. I like the way they turn the long grass into street lamps, but none of the city noise to go with it.”

“Should be a lot of them out this evening as soon as the red-winged black birds fall silent,” he said. “So, if you don’t mind my asking, where are you going with your life?”

“My mom wants me to go to college,” I said. “She said it will give me a leg-up on living as well as make me a better educated man.”

“Good for you,” he said. “But what do you want to do with your life?”

“After I graduate from college,” I said, “I want to travel the world before settling down to a job. I want to figure out some things about this life.”

“Do you mind a bit of advice?” he asked.

“My dad told me to listen to my elders to learn their knowledge,” I said.

“The path to your destiny has “forks in road” that require the imperfect ability to discern the difference between opportunity and pitfalls,” he said. “You will make mistakes in judgment. You will fail often. But remember to make those failures into stepping-stones toward your ultimate success. Never get down on yourself. None of it comes easy, but it gets easier as you travel the path with a good attitude, application by work and your ingenuity. It takes effort over time.”

“My dad said something like that,” I said.

“Smart dad,” he said. “In addition to “forks” there will be “cul de sac’s” or “dead end’s” where you rest and re-evaluate the route you have taken. Everyone comes to these markers at some point. You will become wiser. Experience is the best teacher. So, if you find yourself going down the wrong road, or the road isn’t working for you, turn around and go back. When you return to your original location, strike out in a new direction with the wisdom you learned while you traveled along the wrong road.”

“That works for me,” I said.

“As a young man, you are heading toward your “destiny,” he said. “To me the term “destiny” implies a pre-ordained purpose by some higher power. This implies a personal belief in that higher power. That may or may not work for you. It also implies that one’s “destiny” answers the question, “Why am I here?” You will find out on your journey.”

“Another thing,” he said. “Your mom is right…choose your friends carefully. You will adopt some of their characteristics into your personality. When you hang with the smarter, more responsible folks in your school, you become more like them and succeed like them.

“Additionally, memories of your experiences are what come to you in those future quiet times with yourself. Make sure you accept yourself at all times. Even if you are not sure, assume a sense of confidence in your own talents whatever they might be or come to be.

“Some memories will be filled with regret and some will be joyous. You will have both in your life. You get to choose the number of each by the way you live. And, one final thought from my days of meditation on hay bales and sitting beside a quiet pond with dragon flies, turtles, snakes and muskrats: everything you become, you chose. And, everything you chose, you wanted.”

As the fireflies lit the long grass, the old man tipped his hat before continuing on into the gathering darkness.

“Thank you, sir,” I said, as I walked through the magic of fireflies and stars twinkling in the sky.

A few million more people added to America here and a few million more added there, and pretty soon, your kids face another 50 million foreign-born legal immigrants within 40 years.  We already feature 45,000,000 (million) foreign-born in America today.  In other words, our country isn’t our country while it becomes everybody else’s country.

The total population load with 140 million people by 2050.  Is that okay with you and your kids?  Have you asked them?

In this ongoing interview with executive director David Durham of www.Balance.org , you might get the queasy feeling that your country won’t make it through another 50 million legal immigrants.

Aren’t we already packed into our overloaded, over-crowded, over gridlocked, over-air polluted, over-congested, and over-crime-ridden cities in 2019?  Aren’t our National Parks overwhelmed?  Aren’t our skies filled with too many planes creating too many chem-trails?  Aren’t our factories belching out enough air pollution to give all of us a case of cancer?  Aren’t our soils overwhelmed with crops?  Anybody facing water shortages in California and Florida?

“Legal Immigration will add over 50 Million Immigrants to U.S. population by 2060,” said Durham.  “About three times more than Illegal, given current trends (U.S. Census/CIS analysis, S. Camarota, “Immigration to Add 75 Million by 2060”) with all the Negative Environmental and Budgetary Consequences BALANCE has documented.

“But if we intensify our efforts NOW, we can get reductions just after the 2020 election. After all, candidates are already running hard for the 2020 Election.

“Important to note that the recently passed funding Bill will likely increase both legal and illegal immigration, because it gives illegal immigrants the right to stay in the U.S.A. if they bring in or house — i.e., “sponsor” — an unaccompanied minor child (UAC).”

“Specifically, section 224 of that act states:

(a) None of the funds provided by this Act or any other Act, or provided from any accounts in the Treasury of the United States derived by the collection of fees available to the components funded by this Act, may be used by the Secretary of Homeland Security to place in detention, remove, refer for a decision whether to initiate removal proceedings, or initiate removal proceedings against a sponsor, potential sponsor, or member of a household of a sponsor or potential sponsor of an unaccompanied alien child (as defined in section 462(g) of the Homeland Security Act of 2002 (6 U.S.C. 279(g)) based on information shared by the Secretary of Health and Human Service. ‘Think about the Children.’” [Emphasis Added]  Andrew R. Arthur, cis.org 2/16/19

(b) This provision is de facto an incentive to Trafficking UACs (“The Worst Provision in the Funding Bill; Think about the children,” A. Arthur, cis.org).

“The Bill adds additional Legal Immigration “Slots” which are yet another incentive to continued Mass Illegal Immigration,” said Durham. “That is why it is essential to push for ending illegal immigration and for a Zero-Net Moratorium on Legal simultaneously.

“Though the Funding Bill was a setback for BALANCE’s U.S. Population Stabilization Advocacy, it is essential we keep pushing our Initiative! We reiterate, the Politicians are already involved in pushing to be elected or re-elected in 2020 and we can influence them.”

So please contact Representatives and Candidates NOW, and demand funding for The Wall, an end to Catch and Release and  Chain Migration and Anchor Baby citizenship, implementation of e-Verify, and above all, enactment of an all-Categories-included Zero-NET MORATORIUM (i.e., where Immigration equals Emigration) on Legal Immigration!

Do you want your children to face the ominous ecological, sociological and cultural clashes they will encounter with an added 50 million legal immigrants? Do you want your kids to face 100 different languages in your schools?  In Denver, my city, we must contend with 173 different languages in our classrooms.  Do you want to pay ever-increasing amounts of your taxes toward housing, feeding, medicating, educating and caring for 50 million foreign-born immigrants who lack any qualifications, any cultural affinity, and/or any educational abilities to contribute to our first world economy and society?

If you think the future will be pretty for your kids, just look at what’s happening in Detroit-istan, Minneapolis-istan, Miami-istan, Los Angeles-Mexico or the murder capital of America—Chicago.  If you think the 60,000 plus homeless living in tent cities in Los Angeles and 11,000 homeless in San Francisco can’t be solved, how do you think we will solve millions of immigrants from Africa, Indochina, India, Mexico and heaven knows where else in the world?

It’s time for a total shutdown of all immigration for 20 years or more. It’s time to take a stand.  Find out how you can empower yourself by joining www.Balance.org.

Hidden in every federal budget, and unknown to 99 percent of Americans, your two U.S. Senators and House member use your money to pay for millions of legal and illegal immigrants flooding into America annually.  I interviewed executive director David Durham of www.Balance.org.

“Massive and increasing costs to taxpayers are incurred, now at $330 billion per year NET of Taxes Immigrants Pay, as each Birth Cohort Matures. Mass Immigration proves costly,” said David Durham.

“Of the Many Costs of mass Immigration borne by U.S. Taxpayers, the Costs of Immigrant Births alone (via Medicaid or the Uninsured) is remarkable. Specifically, 1 in 5 births in the U.S. are to Immigrant Mothers. U.S. Taxpayers pay for 67% of births to illegal immigrants, 47% of births to legal immigrants according to a new report by www.CIS.org, Dr. Steven Camarota, Director of Research, 10/9/18.”

“Based on an analysis of Census Bureau data, the Center estimates that nationally one in 13 births is to an illegal immigrant, totaling 300,000 births a year. One in eight births is to a legal immigrant. We also find that more than half of the births to immigrants (legal and illegal) are paid for by taxpayers, including 67 percent of births to illegal immigrants.”

“Steven Camarota, the Center’s Director of Research and co-author of the report, said, ‘The enormous number of births to legal and illegal immigrants may hinder assimilation as children from immigrant families will largely interact with only each other.”

He also points out that “paying for so many births to immigrant mothers may be appropriate, but the large share who can’t provide for themselves without the help of American taxpayers raises serious questions about whether our current immigration system makes sense.”

Given that Demography is Destiny, consider that since the aforementioned facts are for one year only, what the costs and demographic consequences will be for each year projected into the future unless BALANCE’s Solution is implemented. Consider further that Taxpayer- and Immigrant-Funded Immigrant Births total 791,000 per year.

National Picture from CIS Report

♦ That legal immigrants accounted for 12.4 percent (494,000) of all births annually and illegal immigrants accounted for 7.5 percent (297,000) annually.
♦ The 297,000 births per year to illegal immigrants are more than the total number of births to all mothers in any state except California and Texas. They are also more than the total number of births in 16 states combined, plus the District of Columbia.
♦ The estimated 28,000 births to illegal immigrants in just the Los Angles metro area are more than the total number of births in any of 14 states or the District of Columbia.
♦ More than half (54 percent) of births to immigrants (legal and illegal) are entirely or largely paid for by taxpayers because the mother is on Medicaid or uninsured.
♦ Illegal immigrants account for 11 percent (198,000) of all publicly funded births, and legal immigrants are another 13 percent (231,000).
♦ We roughly estimate that the annual cost to taxpayers for births to immigrants (legal and illegal) is $5.3 billion; $2.4 billion of which is for illegal immigrants.

States:

♦ In California, New Jersey, and New York, immigrants (legal and illegal) account for about one-third of all births. In Massachusetts, Nevada, Florida, Texas, Hawaii, Maryland, and Washington, immigrants account for one in four births. Immigrants account for one in five births in Virginia, Connecticut, Illinois, Arizona, Rhode Island, and Oregon.
♦ The states with the largest numbers of births to illegal immigrants are California with 65,000, Texas with 51,000, Florida with 16,000, Illinois with 14,000, Georgia with 13,000, New York with 12,000, and New Jersey and North Carolina with 11,000 each.
♦ In North Carolina, Texas, and Georgia, three-fourth of births to illegal immigrants were likely paid for by taxpayers. In California, Florida, and New York, two-thirds of these births were likely taxpayer-funded. In Illinois and New Jersey, more than half were likely funded by the public.”

David Durham states the best solution: The U.S.A. needs a zero net (i.e., 150,000 per year arrivals and 150,000 per year leaving) Moratorium applying to all immigrant categories, a Wall at our Southern Border, mandating use of E-Verify in hiring decisions, elimination of anchor baby citizenship and an end to “Catch & Release.”

“Enactment of all these would reduce the 1.6 Million Annual flow of Legal Immigrants (400,000 annually into California alone; U.S. Census) and thus greatly reduce the Annual NET (after subtracting Taxes Immigrants pay) Costs of Legal Immigration, now running at $330 BILLION per year,” said Durham.  “Implementing the Trump Administration’s Admirable Proposal that No Green Cards (reflecting permanent Resident Status) would be issued to those who had accepted, or were likely to accept in the future, any Taxpayer-funded Benefits, would reduce Immigrant Numbers significantly.”

When you start adding up these financial figures over the years and then, over the decades, we, the American people face enormous financial burdens created and supported by our two senators and House members.  You really need to call them with your anger over their cheating, lying and stealing from your wallet.

After having talked extensively with David Durham, he makes the most sense of any of the top immigration websites such as FAIR.org and/or NumbersUSA.org.    We need a total shutdown of all immigration into the USA for 10 to 20 years. We need to get our own house straightened out.  If you want more information, contact www.balance.org

Consider this summary of a study from the Center of Immigration Studies, www.cis.org:

“The findings of this analysis show that the average cost of a deportation is much smaller than the net fiscal drain created by the average illegal immigrant. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) reported the average deportation cost as $10,854 in FY 2016. In FY 2012, ICE removed 71 percent more aliens with a similar budget, creating an average inflation-adjusted cost of $5,915. This compares to an average lifetime net fiscal drain (taxes paid minus services used) of $65,292 for each illegal immigrant, excluding their descendants. This net figure is based on fiscal estimates of immigrants by education level from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NAS). The total fiscal drain for the entire illegal population is estimated at $746.3 billion. Of course, simply because deportation is much less costly than allowing illegal immigrants to stay does not settle the policy questions surrounding illegal immigration as there are many factors to consider. Steven A. Camarota is the director of research at the Center for Immigration Studies, 8/3/17   (Reported in CarryingCapacityNetwork.org)

Your two U.S. senators and Congressman/woman bring this nightmare to you every year, year after year, decade after decade.  Since the latest figure of illegal immigration now stands at 22-25 million illegal aliens per the October 2018 Yale University Report, you, the American taxpayer might feel a huge vacuum sucking your wallet right out of your pants or your purse.

And, yet, such famous Congressional Critters like Nancy Pelosi or Chuck Schumer, who dominated Congress for the past 40 years, continue to tell you, “There is no crisis at the border.”  Except, the U.S. Border Patrol reported a record of 78,000 illegal alien violated our borders in February. With 22 to 25 million illegals in our country, perhaps Pelosi and Schumer remain out of touch with reality.

How about this sobering figure as to LEGAL immigration?

29,000 LEGAL Immigrants per Week Cost Us, U.S. Taxpayers $6.3 BILLION per Week, NET!

Unsustainable 1.5 Million Annual Legal-Immigrant Influx  Costs U.S. Taxpayers $330 Billion NET (i.e., after subtracting Taxes Immigrants Pay) per Year NET, i.e., $758 MILLION per Year for EACH Congressional District   (does not include State & Local Costs to Taxpayers)
See CCN’s Cost of Immigration Study

David Durham, director at CCN, said, “If the 1.5 to 1.6 Million Annual Legal Immigrant Inflow were cut to 150,000/Year (i.e., Zero-Net Annual Immigration = Emigration), Federal Deficit could be reduced by One-Half Trillion $ in a Decade!

Please help us (Carrying Capacity Network) PUSH A MORATORIUM, by intensifying our Activist Mobilization, Media, lobbying and public education efforts with a tax-deductible donation

What is Carrying Capacity Network?

Carrying Capacity Network confronts the controversial issues, makes the difficult choices, and adopts the innovative approaches necessary to meet the challenges facing our nation. CCN’s action-oriented initiatives focus on achieving national revitalization, population stabilization, immigration reduction, economic sustainability, and resource conservation.

After much research on the issue of legal and illegal immigration, everything becomes SO depressing.  That’s why I stand with and support organizations that actually take action on behalf of American citizens.  As you know, the invasion of our country continues because not enough people stand up and push back.

We either stand together and stop this legal/illegal immigration invasion or our children face a really sobering future.  In order to educate yourself please check out: CarryingCapacityNetwork.org

As I’ve written hundreds of commentaries for the past 30 years, we either stop endless and massive immigration into America, or we’re not going to enjoy an “America” and the “American people” ever again.  We’re literally galloping over a demographic and sociological cliff.

By joining such organizations as CarryingCapacityNetwork.org, you give yourself a powerful voice by joining with millions of other Americans who care about the future of our country.

“Free institutions are next to impossible in a country made up of different nationalities. Among a people without ‘fellow-feeling’, especially if they read and speak different languages, the united public opinion, necessary to the working of representative government, cannot exist.” —Enoch Powell

Samuel P. Huntington, in his book, Clash of Civilizations, made the cogent point that mixing cultures leads to violent clashes among different religions, ethnic groups and languages.

Last week, an angry Australian in New Zealand massacred Muslims in two different mosques with the vengeance of a jihadist right out of the playbook from the Paris, France massacres, along with the Brussels, Belgium explosions and Nice, France killings along with Charlie Hebdo executions.

With clashing cultures and incompatible religions being imported into Canada, America and Australia—little wonder that more such violent reactions don’t occur more often.  Fact: Islam intends to dominate the world.  Their Quran mandates violence in that pursuit.

In America, our leaders imported 3.5 million Muslims, which led to San Bernardino Christmas killings, Orlando, Florida gay nightclub massacre, Fort Lauderdale killings, St. Cloud, Minnesota stabbings, 3,000 deaths at 9/11 site in New York City, along with an average of 25 honor killings annually of Muslim women in the USA and the insane assault and battery of over 500,000 women subjected to the brutality of female genital mutilation. (Source: Ass’t District Attorney Ed O’Callihan, DHS, Feb 2, 2018, press briefing)

In other words, when you mix a 6^th century brutal and violent religion into first world countries, at some point, you force a response.

Remark on social media:  “Along with “building too many Mosques” in Western Host countries & forcing their Kill-Joy Islam & their boring way of life upon host countries & proposing of “barbaric Sharia,” contribute further to Muslim hatred & also they never ever assimilate.

“See, Muslims run away from their “Islamic Shit-Holes,” to western countries, for a good life….but when they settle down, they try to convert their Western host countries into the same “Islamic Hell-Holes,” they ran away from in the first place!”

Because of 9/11, most Americans feel queasy when they see a woman in a head scarf or a man in a white dress and cap.  It brings them back to that brutal day in New York City when Muslim jihadists killed 3,000 people in the Twin Towers.

Additionally, Americans become a bit nervous, if not outraged when they hear Islamic leaders proclaim:

Illinois: Muslim Leader: “Everything We Represent Goes in Total Contradiction to What the West Represents”  “My dear brothers and sisters, this idea of fitting in – we need to eliminate this from our vocabulary. Again, we are to stand out. We are a unique nation with a unique set of solutions. We are not to fit in.”

Other Muslim leaders proclaim, “Islam isn’t in America to be equal to any faith, but to become dominant. The Qur’an should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on Earth.” Omar Ahmed, director of Council on American Islamic Relations.

Historian Andre Servier said, “Islam was not a torch, but an extinguisher. Conceived in a barbarous brain for the use by a barbarous people, it was, and it remains, incapable of adapting itself to civilization. Whatever it has dominated, it has broken the impulse toward progress and checked the evolution of society.”

In other words, Muslims themselves tell Western countries their intentions to conquer.  Historians give greater understandings of the intentions of the Quran, but Western leaders fail to comprehend the point-blank intentions of Muslims in their countries.  Thus, you see the devolvement and destruction of European, Canadian, American, New Zealand and Australia civilizations.

Our freedom of speech faces censoring by Muslims. Last week, Judge Jeanine Pirro suffered censoring because CAIR didn’t like the judge’s pointing out that House Member Muslim Omar remains vehemently anti-Jewish and wears a hijab mandated by the Quran that she swore on to become a member of the US House of Representatives. Unfortunately, everything in the Quran counters everything in U.S. Constitutional Law.  Additionally, the Quran mandates destruction of America, thus, Omar should be tried for treason and deported back to Somalia.

While New Zealand’s leaders imported Muslims, they saw an uptick in honor killings, female genital mutilation, religious confrontations and severe unease among the Kiwi populace.  I’ve traveled extensively over there. Nobody wants, likes or needs Muslim immigrants.

Huntington made it very clear as to the violence of mixing cultures and incompatible religions, “It is my hypothesis that the fundamental source of conflict in this new world will not be primarily ideological or primarily economic. The great divisions among humankind and the dominating source of conflict will be cultural. Nation-states will remain the most powerful actors in world affairs, but the principal conflicts of global politics will occur between nations and groups of different civilizations. The clash of civilizations will dominate global politics. The fault lines between civilizations will be the battle lines of the future.”

As Western countries import more Moslems, their leaders guarantee more religious, linguistic and cultural confrontations, especially from Islam and Sharia Law.  Moslems NEVER integrate into host countries.  Take a trip to Detroit, Michigan or Minneapolis, Minnesota or Miami, Florida.  Those cities morphed into foreign countries with no intention of ever assimilating into America.

One reader from Florida wrote me, “This is why they don’t complain about immigration in south Florida:  In Miami there is less than 5% White Americans and the native born African-American population has mostly fled as well.  In Miami, you don’t hear much complaining about immigration because there is no one left to complain. Native Floridians get it and have fled to other parts of the State. The recent hurricanes hitting Puerto Rico combined with their bond default has brought 3 million of them to the central Florida area. So the new line is now Ocala. You have to move North of Ocala to find anyone that speaks English at a 7-11.”  John E.

That’s why, as America adds another 140 million people from all over the world by 2050—it signs its own death warrant as an intact, peaceful, cohesive and thriving civilization.  Instead, America faces more San Bernardino’s, Orlando’s, St. Cloud’s, Fort Hood’s, beheadings, be-handings, honor killings, Sharia Law, female genital mutilation, gay killings, fatwa’s and a host of Quran related violence.  Violence remains the nature of Islam as it gallops toward dominance wherever it exists.

Only viable solution: immediate cessation of all immigration into the United States and Canada.

Part 1: Importing crime, drugs, diseases and cultural chaos

If you ask average Americans about legal immigration, you hear responses mostly in the positive.  Except if you ask Americans from Chicago, Los Angeles, New York City, San Francisco, Miami and other immigration-overwhelmed cities.  Most of our major cities, where welfare departments cater to legal and illegal immigration, find themselves flooded with immigrants from around the world.

So much so, that you, the American taxpayer, shell out $330 billion a year in welfare funding across 15 federal agencies.

Recently, I talked to Mr. David Durham, director of CarryingCapacityNetwork.com and Balance.org.  His websites expose the stunning amount of money you pay for legal and illegal immigration.

Durham states, “Yet another Multi-National Caravan is headed North to our Southern Border and the overwhelming Evidence is that Illegal Migrants/Asylum Seekers come from Scores of Different Countries and Cultures with Values which reflect little or no Regard for the Environment.”

Consider the following Environmental Threats:

“Gypsies Threatening America, Defecating Everywhere and Beheading Chickens” via Pittsburg Post-Gazette & Tucker Carlson re Roma Asylum Seekers Invasion of Pennsylvania Town.”

“Lima River in Peru and Ganges in India and Yangtze in China are ‘Running Sewers’ and People in those Countries have absolutely no regard for Environment Whatsoever.” International Trekker, F. Wooldridge Personal Observations

Or a report that “Taiwanese Community in California Mad that Chinese Immigrants Pooping on People’s Lawns” Daily Mail & Chinese in L.A.com

Disease Threats

“‘Crisis’ of Seriously ill Migrants Slams Border Patrol — TB, Pneumonia, Influenza, Parasites’ Federal agents are referring 50 illegal immigrants a day for urgent medical care’ The MSM never reports this and open border advocates vehemently deny this fact. Look what these alone are costing U.S. taxpayers.

“Weeks after mainstream media outlets reported that illegal immigrants don’t bring disease into the United States, the Border Patrol reveals that it is getting slammed daily with dozens of illegal immigrants carrying ‘serious illnesses.’ This includes tuberculosis, influenza, and pneumonia. In fact, a Guatemalan migrant who died in U.S. custody on Christmas Eve, had Influenza B, a virus that causes respiratory infections.

“Federal agents are referring 50 illegal immigrants a day for urgent medical care, according to figures obtained by Washington D.C.’s conservative newspaper. Authorities say, ‘it’s unlike anything they’ve ever seen before.’ Many of the migrants have tuberculosis, parasites or the flu, the feds confirm.

“There are also lots of pregnant women about to give birth.

“Judicial Watch has interviewed medical experts that confirm illegal immigrants do indeed pose a serious public health threat to the U.S. by bringing dangerous diseases into the country. This includes tuberculosis, dengue and Chikungunya.

“After returning from covering the Central American caravan along the Guatemala-Honduras border, Judicial Watch spoke with a prominent physician in a border state who warned that the migrants will undoubtedly bring infectious diseases into the U.S. Among them are extremely drug resistant strands of tuberculosis and mosquito-borne diseases such as dengue and chikungunya that are widespread in the region.”

“‘Crisis’ of Seriously ill Migrants Slams Border Patrol — TB, Pneumonia, Influenza, Parasites,” —Judicial Watch, 01/07/2019

Cultural Environment Threats — Child-Bride Approvals — Thousands!

Washington—Thousands of requests by men to bring in child and adolescent brides to live in the United States were approved over the past decade, according to government data obtained by The Associated Press. In one case, a 49-year-old man applied for admission for a 15-year-old girl.

“The approvals are legal. … U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services goes by whether the marriage is legal in the home country.”

“There were more than 5,000 cases of adults petitioning on behalf of minors and nearly 3,000 examples of minors seeking to bring in older spouses or fiancés.”

“Some victims of forced marriage say the lure of a U.S. passport combined with lax U.S. marriage laws are partly fueling the petitions.”

“‘My passport ruined my life,’ said Naila Amin, a dual citizen from Pakistan who grew up in New York City.”

“She was forcibly married at 13 in Pakistan and applied for papers for her 26-year-old husband to come to the country.”

“‘People die to come to America,’ she said. ‘I was a passport to him. They all wanted him here, and that was the way to do it.’”

“Amin, now 29, said she was betrothed to her first cousin, Tariq, when she was just 8 and he was 21.”

“Overall, there were 3.5 million petitions received from budget years 2007 through 2017.

“Over that period, there were 5,556 approvals for those seeking to bring minor spouses or fiancées and 2,926 approvals by minors seeking to bring in older spouses according to the data.”

Fraidy Reiss, who campaigns against coerced marriage as head of a group called Unchained at Last, researched data from her home state of New Jersey. She determined that nearly 4,000 minors, mostly girls, were married in the state from 1995 to 2012, including 178 who were under 15.”

What am I finding in my research of legal immigration into the USA?  Answer: our own 535 Congressional representatives undermine the foundation of our culture, our marital laws and our Western democracy.  Your two senators and your House member approve this travesty of ethics, morality and our laws.

You’re urged to visit CarryingCapacityNetwork.com and Balance.org to find out for yourself how Congress sends our country into a spiraling third world future of entrenched poverty, generational welfare and complete destruction of America’s culture and way of life.

At this point, we see 6,000 homeless in Seattle, 10,000 homeless in Denver, 50,000 plus homeless in Los Angeles and 11,000 homeless in San Francisco. On any day, America features one million homeless throughout 50 states.  If we can’t figure out how to solve those monumental social problems, how do we think we can save the rest of the world by importing over 100,000 legal immigrants every 30 days into our country?

Do you know that our U.S. Congress, based in Washington DC, and totally out of touch with what their actions are doing to middle-class Americans, continues to import one million legal immigrants from the third world onto our shores, annually?  Do you realize they allow another 500,000 illegal aliens to jump our borders, annually?  That’s over 100,000 immigrants every 30 days.  (Sources: www.NumbersUSA.org ; www.CIS.org)

Do you realize that Congress allows 22 to 25 million illegal aliens to remain in our country without fear of deportation?  (Source: Yale University Study, Oct 2018) How do they do that?  Congress refuses to enforce Federal Law Section 8 USC 1324, within our nation.  In fact, employers of illegal aliens do not face arrest, prosecution or prison because your two senators and House member refuse to do their jobs.

What do you pay?  According the latest figures at www.FAIR.org , you pay $113,000,000,000.00 (billion) annually to maintain those illegals as to educating and feeding their children, along with medical care, and ESL courses, plus 12 agencies who must address this invasion with your money.

But that’s not all, each state pays into the millions of dollars for illegals operating in their area.  Illegal migrants cost Michigan $928 million in 2018.  In California, it’s into the billions of dollars as they feature over four million illegal aliens and possible as high as six million.  They’re slithering into welfare offices in all the major cities around America.

Do you think it’s going to stop?  Do you think it’s going to become better?  Do you think you will ever stop paying for legal and illegal immigrants?  Answer: sorry, you will pay more and more as our U.S. Congress continues to import a permanent underclass into America.

Why do you think millions of people around the world live in misery?  Why do their countries suffer poverty, hopelessness and dictators?  Answer: their leaders and citizens lack the intellectual horsepower to create viable social, political and economic systems.

“The stresses caused by population growth cannot be solved by international migration. They must be confronted by and within each individual nation. Fundamental to the concept of national rights and responsibilities is the duty of each nation to match its population with its political, social, and environmental resources, in both the short and the long term. No nation should exceed what the biologists call its ‘carrying capacity.’” Dr. John Tanton

Why are Western countries successful?  Answer: very smart people and very good educational systems built up by very smart people! Average IQ in Canada, America, Europe and Australia runs around 100 to 105.

Why are places like Africa filled with illiteracy and horrific poverty, overpopulation and futility?  Answer: illiteracy dominates most African countries at 65 to 75 IQ’s in Sub-Saharan Africa and 75 to 85 in upper Africa.  Check for accuracy: www.brainstats.com

In fact, the most successful countries average 105 IQ’s of the general public such as Japan, Singapore, and China. Whereas Somalia, Ethiopia, Sudan, Congo, Kenya and others run an average of 65 IQ.

It might be noted that third world birth rates, driven by illiteracy and failing countries, contribute 83 million new babies, net gain, annually.  That’s where all those third world people, and soon to be immigrants to America and the West, accelerate their numbers.

Since the line continually grows and accelerates, with those realities facing us, why are we importing 1.0 to 1.2 million legal immigrants annually and another 500,000 illegally?  What exactly do we think will happen as we import millions of intellectually challenged people.  As a matter of fact, America’s average IQ has dropped from 100 in 1965 to 98 in the last 50 years.  We feature no less than 45 million foreign born from mostly third world countries.

How do you think that will play out in another 30 years as we add another 110 million more immigrants and their children?  Take a guess!

It’s not their fault; it’s their condition.  The great majority cannot perform basic educational standards. Thus, welfare, more welfare, their families and generations feed off our welfare systems.  Thus, you see drug gangs, street gangs, and endless violence such as in Chicago and LA.  And, a complete breakdown of ethics, rule of law and societal order. What happens with illiterate people?  They draw down on violence, drugs, frustration and total loss of social fabric identification.  What will be accomplished if we continue adding third world immigrants?  Answer: we will be dragged down into a third world country by importing a permanent underclass of third world people who cannot perform in a first world country.  They are creating permanent enclaves of separation from our successful society, but at some point, they will become violent enclaves that will become totally unmanageable.  That kind of situation devolves into civil war.

When you entangle incompatible cultures such as a Somalian bush family, along with incompatible and violent religions such as Islam, and you add hundreds of different languages, and then, you toss in 100 million people with 200 different world views from the countries where they originated—do you think the United States stands a chance of surviving the next 30 years?

“Diversity within a nation destroys unity and leads to civil wars,” said social scientist Garret Hardin. “Immigration, a benefit during the youth of a nation, can act as a disease in its mature state. Too much internal diversity in large nations has led to violence and disintegration. We are now in the process of destabilizing America. The magic words of destabilizers are ‘diversity’ and ‘multiculturalism’.”

The only viable solution:  we must engage Congress to rescind the 1965 Immigration Reform Act. We must shutdown all immigration for at least 20 years, or most shutdown all immigration, period.  Anything less, and our children face a horrifically difficult and/or impossible future.

If you look at these two videos, you will see exactly what I am speaking about:

Part 7.  “Immigrants devoted to their own cultures and religions are not influenced by the secular politically correct façade that dominates academia, news-media, entertainment, education, religious and political thinking today,” said James Walsh, former Associate General Counsel of the United States Immigration and Naturalization Service. “They claim the right not to assimilate, and the day is coming when the question will be how can the United States regulate the defiantly unassimilated cultures, religions and mores of foreign lands?  Such immigrants say their traditions trump the U.S. legal system.  Balkanization of the United States has begun.”

In March 2019, the two new Muslim women in the U.S. House of Representatives, one from the stacked Muslim immigrant crowd from Detroit, and the other in “Somaliland” Minneapolis, Minnesota, move fast to enact five Muslim holidays into Federal Law.  Ihan Omar of Somalia, voted into the House, and her sidekick, Rashida Tlaib, who wrapped herself into a Palestinian flag when she won a House seat, have pressed for eradication of ICE and DHS.  Soon, they will submit bills to increase Muslim immigration and chain-migration numbers.  With their increased numbers, they will introduce bills to enact Sharia Laws in America.

Already in Great Britain, 150 Sharia Law courts operate along with 50 Sharia Law city councils.  We’re already seeing it in cities in Texas. Additionally, we see 30 Sharia Law cop cars now patrolling the streets of Muslim-dominated areas on New York City.

Former Muslim Amil Imani wrote, “In model, Islamic states such as Saudi Arabia and Iran, for instance, women do not dare complain about their Allah-decreed chattel status. If they protest in the least, they are beaten by their husbands.  And if they dare to demonstrate in public for equal family rights with men, they get severe beatings by the police and are hauled to jails for additional indignities and violence.”

Note that the United Nations reported a minimum of 20,000 ‘honor killings’ of women in Islamic-dominated countries, annually.  They can be killed for any reason, such as a husband wants a third wife, but cannot afford her, so, he kills one of his wives, to make space for another wife.  Muslims can kill their wives if they feel she has dishonored him.  Muslim women fear for their lives every day of their lives.  And talk about sexual mistreatment!

In his book, The Strange Death of Europe, Douglas Murray wrote, “Another story related events at an asylum center the day before. On the evening of September 27, 2017, a migrant called police from a Berlin center to say that he had seen another migrant abusing a child in the bushes.  Three policemen arrived to find a 27-year-old Pakistani still in the bushes raping a six-year-old Iraqi girl.”

Imani wrote, “In Islamic societies, freedom of expression, worship, and assembly are taken away.  Women are indeed treated as chattel.  Young girls are subjected to barbaric genital mutilation to make them sex slaves and birth channels.  Minors are executed, adulterers are stoned to death, thieves have their limbs amputated, and much, much more.  Isn’t that everyone’s idea of paradise?”

I can share with you this: reading this book gives you an uneasy understanding and foreboding reality check as to what’s coming into America.  Any fool can see that we commit our own suicide as a culture, language and way of life.  You’ve heard the saying, “The American People”, but today we fail to meet that statement because we are becoming every other country’s people.

Murray wrote, “In Holland, Denmark and other countries across Europe, politicians who oppose mass immigration, exist in a state of permanent police protection, change their sleeping arrangements most nights and sometimes live on army bases.

“The politicians that remain politically correct ensure that Europe is the only place in the world that belongs to the world, not to Europeans. By the middle of this century, China will still look like China and India will look like India as well as Russia like Russia, but not Europe ever again.”

The London think tank asked 10,000 people across ten European countries whether they agreed or disagreed with the statement, ‘All further Muslim immigration should be stopped.’  The vast majority agreed with that statement.  Unfortunately, it’s too late with 50 million plus Muslims already embedded in Europe.

Immigrants maintain that they own their new countries. One said, “We refugees do not want to live in the same country with you. You can, and I think you should, leave Germany. Germany does not fit you anymore. Why do you live here?  Look for a new home.”

As you read the quote at the beginning of this column, you must ask yourself what America will do with, how will we cope with, and what kind of a future will be in store for our kids with the projected 100 million legal immigrants added by 2050?

What do I see?  From my own international experiences in such overpopulated, over-multiculturalized, over-diversified and completely fragmented societies—two outcomes:  one would be a slow boil into becoming a third world country with illiteracy, entrenched poverty, racial strife, ethnic tribalism, enclaves of similar immigrants separating from American society, conflicting languages and tremendous confusion and loss of identity.  Example: India.  And, with more and more illiterate third world people, welfare rolls that break all our systems down.  Additionally, our standard of living and quality of life degrade into the sewer.

Second scenario:  I see tremendous racial and religious conflict. As we add another 100 million third world immigrants with ZERO compatibility with Americans, as well as NO cultural ability to function in a first world country, I see our Republic degrading into whites against Muslims, against blacks against Hispanics. And all three ethnic groups against themselves.  I see horrific Sharia Law enclaves that degrade democracy into a standing joke.  Women’s rights?  Gone!

I see total breakdown of American identity. You already hear it: “I am a Muslim-American” or “Pakistani-American”, which is an oxymoron because Muslim cannot and do not possess any affinity to U.S. Constitutional Law.  Why? Because the Quran is a political-religious-economic system totally counter to U.S. capitalism, separation of church and state, and the rule of Constitutional law. In an Islamic country, Muslims can legally kill anyone who chooses another religion other than Islam.

I see our entire environment and quality of life degraded beyond recognition from what we enjoy today.  Our cities will be gridlocked and air-polluted beyond solving. Our water shortages will become acute, irreversible and unsolvable.   When oil exhausts itself, food shortages will drag us under.  We face horrific consequences as to energy and resource depletion.  Over 100 to 500 different languages from all these immigrants will create 100 to 500 different world views that cannot and will not EVER share the same page as to ethos of America.

In other words, we face an unmanageable future with unmanageable ethnic groups and languages bent on having their cultures mandated and ours dissolved.

At some point, we will face a Mt. Everest of problems that cannot be solved.

What can we do to stop this dismal future in America?

Solution: stop all immigration into America for the next 20 years.  Help them in their own countries.

If you look at these two videos, you will see exactly what I am speaking about:

Part 6: Incredible crime rates as to rapes, murders, molesting Europeans by immigrants.

In his book, The Strange Death of Europe, Douglas Murray said,” The desire to continue to feel yourself guilty arguably finds its end point in modern European liberal societies: the first societies in human history who, when they are hit, ask what they did to deserve it.  For unassuageable historical guilt carries over into the present.  It makes Europeans the guilty party even when they actually are hit, or worse. Several years before the latest surge in migration, the left-wing Norwegian politician Karsen Nordal Hauken, a self-described feminist, anti-racist and heterosexual, was brutally raped in his own home by a male Somali refugee.”

Horrendously, the very people who plead for more refugees remain in gated communities to ensure their daughters and wives do not face the rampant rapes and molestations across all European countries invaded by immigrants.  All politicians stand away from and above the violence.

What kind of violence?  Please examine these few examples:

Mourtala Madou, a 33-year-old illegal immigrant from Niger, has been sentenced to life in prison for stabbing to death his 34-year-old German ex-girlfriend and decapitating their 21-month-old daughter at a subway station in Hamburg.

The grisly crime drew renewed attention to Germany’s spiraling epidemic of stabbings and knife violence, which has raged since Chancellor Angela Merkel allowed into the country more than a 2 million mostly male migrants from Africa, Asia and the Middle East.

The double murder in Hamburg occurred the morning of April 12, 2018, one day after a family judge denied Madou (also known as Mado Bido M. or Mourtala M.) joint custody of his daughter. Madou followed the mother, Sandra P., and their toddler, Mariam, into the Jungfernstieg station in downtown Hamburg. In front of many passers-by, he opened his backpack, pulled out a knife and stabbed his stroller-bound daughter in the abdomen. He then slashed her neck and severed her head. Madou subsequently plunged the knife into Sandra P.’s back and cut through her vital organs. She died less than an hour later at a nearby hospital.

During interrogation by police, Madou said, “This is my child. This is my blood. The mother separates me from the child. Then I separate the child from her.”

Police and prosecutors had initially tried to conceal from the public that Madou had decapitated the baby, but a commuter in Hamburg — who happened to arrive at the subway station moments after the attack filmed the scene on his phone. “Oh my God,” Daniel J. can be heard saying in English. “It’s unbelievable. He cut off the head of the baby.”

Heinrich Kordewiner, a blogger from Hamburg who discovered the video on Daniel J.’s Facebook page, uploaded it to YouTube. Hamburg police subsequently arrived at Kordewiner’s apartment with a search warrant, and confiscated his computer, mobile phone and other electronics, allegedly to find “evidence” of the “crime” of uploading the video.

Police and prosecutors have insisted that their silence about the child’s decapitation has been out of respect for the dignity of the dead. Others, however, have accused German authorities of censoring information about growing lawlessness — including spiraling knife violence — to “preserve civil peace.”

No One Is Safe in the Streets of European Cities Anymore with African and Middle Eastern Refugees that now number into the Millions

Knives, axes and machetes have become weapons of choice for immigrants in Germany, which has some of the strictest gun laws in Europe. People armed with knives, axes and machetes have brought devastation to all of Germany’s 16 federal states. Knives have been used not only not only to carry out jihadist attacks, but also to commit homicides, robberies, home invasions, sexual assaults, honor killings and many other types of violent crime.

Knife-related crimes have occurred in amusement parks, bicycle trails, hotels, parking lots, parks, public squares, public transportation, restaurants, schools, supermarkets and train stations. Many Germans have the sense that danger lurks everywhere, but the lack of official statistics seemingly allows German authorities to pretend that the problem is imaginary.

Daily occurrences in European cities via refugees give asylum:

• Fulda. A 23-year-old Somali asylum seeker demanded a cigarette from a passerby: “Give me the cigarette. The cigarette is mine. Allahu Akbar! [Allah is the greatest!] I kill Christians!” When the man refused, the Somali drew a knife and repeatedly stabbed him in the upper torso. The injured man fled but the Somali pursued him: “I’m a Muslim. I want to kill you. I kill Christians. Allahu Akbar!”  The man later died of his wounds.
• Flensburg. Ahmad Gulbhar, a failed Afghan asylum seeker, stabbed to death 17-year-old Mireille B. after she refused to convert to Islam. He claimed on his asylum application that he was an 18-year-old refugee from Syria. Medical exams showed that Gulbhar was at least 21 years old and possibly 29 years old.
• Nordstetten. A 26-year-old Syrian asylum seeker, Mohammed Omran Albakr, was arrested in the stabbing death of his landlord, Michael Riecher, a real estate entrepreneur. Riecher had sponsored Albakr and some speculated that the murder had a financial motive. Others said that Albakr murdered Riecher after learning that he was Jewish; that the murder had a religious and anti-Semitic dimension.

During my research for Part 6 of this series, I am looking at four pages of this kind of violence to Europeans who have been forced by their leaders to accepts these 21^st century barbarians or at best, savages from Africa.

The rape sheet on my desk looks like a ticker-tape listing spewing out of a machine of women raped by Muslims and Africans.  It’s what they do; it’s how they operate; it’s their culture. It’s become Europe’s noose around Europe’s neck. Brought to Europeans by their leaders!  Murray makes it clear in his book.  He documents everything.

Do we want this kind of America where rapes, jihad and violence to anyone who isn’t Islamic, occur in our cities every minute of the day?  Do we want the violence of multiculturalism and diversity where we face certain societal suicide and death to our citizens?

If we maintain our present course, none of us will be safe from this immigration onslaught of America.

Do you ever communicate your disdain, frustration and exasperation with your two U.S. senators and House member?  Well, I do!  Both pretend to serve the citizens of Colorado and America. Both have failed miserably after over a decade in office.

They don’t do their jobs. They don’t serve America or her citizens.  Therefore, this week I wrote them this letter. And, you can do the same with your elected officials, because the fact remains, our U.S. Congress continues to fail the American people year after year after year.

Dear Senator Cory Gardner, and Senator Michael Bennet:

What have you done in your years in Congress?

1. What have you done about the 300,000 anchor babies that we pay for annually because of the 300,000 illegal alien pregnant women birthing them in our country?  Answer: you’ve done nothing to create a bill to stop this usurpation of the 14th Amendment that was meant for slave children; NOT illegal alien mothers!  Do something for heaven sakes!
2. What have you done to stop illegal alien employment in our country that draws illegal aliens so much so, that www.CIS.org states that over 500,000 illegals enter our country annually?  Answer: you haven’t done jack squat in 10 years in Congress.
3. What have you done to arrest employers of illegal aliens for breaking our current laws, Section 8 of the US code, 1324, and what have you done to pass E-Verify?  Answer: not a darned thing in 10 years. It begs the question as to what in the daylights you’re doing up there in DC for 10 years.
4. What have you done to stop the Iraq and Afghanistan, and Syrian Wars in the past 10 years?  Answer: you keep funding them and you keep getting our kids killed.   We didn’t vote you into office to waste our money for 18 years in those useless wars. What in the name of common sense and reason gives you the right to continue and do nothing to defund those wars?
5. We’ve got a $22 trillion national debt? What have you done to stop it and reduce it?  Answer: Nothing, absolutely nothing. Get off your tail-feathers and move toward solutions!
6. We’ve got air pollution, water shortages and resource shortages facing America because of human overpopulation. What did you do in 2013?  You attempted to double legal immigration rates to 2 million annually.  Where is your head and common sense?  Zilch!
7. We’ve got race problems in this country, but you help illegal aliens and refugees more than our own African-American ghettos. Why don’t you help our citizens?  Answer that one, will you?
8. We face horrific infrastructure breakdown in this country, but you do nothing to fix it? Why?  Why are we paying you to do nothing?
9. We’ve got catastrophic climate destabilization in the USA from carbon footprint caused by overpopulation and we’re about to add another 100 million immigrants according to the US Census Bureau. What are you doing to stop that horrible outcome?  Answer: you’re making it worse and you’re doing nothing to stop it.
10. What are you doing to earn your $194,000.00 annual salary?  Answer: little to nothing. I worked as a math-science teacher here in Colorado on $5,000.00 a year, and I got the job done every year.  You’re totally a complete and utter failure as a U.S. Senator.   Change that and take action. We’re sick of waiting.  The only factor that counts in America is that you take a job, and then, you fill the job with results. Both you two senators continue to fail all of us because you don’t do anything that solves our nation’s problems.

Instead of fiddling your thumbs and sitting at your desk, how about serving your constituents and our country.  Start fulfilling the above 10 points and another two dozen other points that I could add.  We, the American people, demand you serve us, our state and our country.  Not everybody else’s country and people!

We want results. We pay you for results, not speeches!  Get busy and do your jobs.

Thank you,
Frosty Wooldridge
