I am confused. Watching the news tonight, of course it is all about Trump's election victory. Out on the streets, there were some voters for Trump who were interviewed. They were asked why they voted for Trump. In essence, they said they were voting against the elite. Since when does being a billionaire not make you an elite? They wanted to vote against the elite, so they voted an elite in.

I know....both choices were not the best. But that sort of rationale just does not add up to me.

Now with protest going on in the city streets, it makes me wonder what is next. The minority believe that Trump represents everything against them.

If Trump is not part of the establishment...not sure how he would not be, but if he is not part of it, I am willing to bet that this establishment is very unhappy right now. Going back to President McKinley, the powerful have had their hands pulling the strings of key political figures. If they have lost their control now, I have to wonder what they will do to regain it.

Anyway...just some thoughts I have had for a while now.

I hope the ruthless nature in which Trump won is not taken into the office of the most powerful man of the world.

I do agree with Obama, Trump does deserve a peaceful transition into office. He did win. I wish him, our country, and the world the best.

The last week has shown that people around the world have no power, are we gearing up for anarchy?

In the UK 3 Judges with ties to the EU have said Parliament must vote on Brexit, The will of the people in a legitimate vote maybe worthless.

The US elections are rife with corruption and criminal activity, Armed militia in a few states are getting prepared.

The Dakota Access pipeline on private Indian land issues, peaceful protestors getting teargassed by police.

Students in South Africa burning Universities because they demand free education (promised by the ANC govt) but the whites are being blamed.

The US making off the grid living illegal, evicting people from their own land.

German right wing attacking immigrants

The list goes on, but surely the general population will tire of this and anarchy will reign.

Your thoughts?

Although I have not looked, I have been told that the mods have a profile of their own.

From what I gather, the mod is quite a tall, hunky guy (or so he says) looking for women 25 and older.
Makes me wonder whether the mod has dated people onsite, no doubt he has lots of experience to draw upon from peeking at the seduction lines the rest of us have written.

That said, if any of the mods are dishy, sexy or curvy women that fancy my profile and want a holiday in Tenerife..... Dont hesitate, get in touch! (I promise not to pester you for all those little secrets you know about us... well perhaps a little!)

I must have lost my sense of character lately.

With all these boiling negative explosive rift rendered to our sense of unity, even I am ashamed of what I have become. ..

But now looking at from the outside of the box, I do feel the conspiracy thrown out there against us all, the true citizens of this young nation. ...

I feel some powerful force is dipping their magic wand to disunite us, break us, alienate us. Ultimately disenfranchise our strength as a solid true soul of this country. We, the melting pot of the world. Black, white, brown, yellow, race. Nowhere on this planet has any part where all of us came to become united as one:

"WE PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND TO THE REPUBLIC FOR WHICH IT STANDS, ONE NATION UNDER GOD INDIVISIBLE WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL."

So can I make a suggestion to stop this rift going on against each other and support every effort that promotes our unity, love and respect for all regardless of race, color and or religion?

I am apologetic to the character and slander I have participated in lately and to those I have caused hurt and disillusion, please forgive me.

We must not crave this damage any further and I am here to use this season to greet everyone peace and joy.

Note: I was watching area 51 tonight and how we've survived the cold war and it occurred to me how fragile indeed life is.

Yet how happy I am that I am here where our freedom to express our thoughts, our minds, practice our own culture and religion is allowed by the backbone of all our laws, our CONSTITUTION.

After all, wasn't it this young nation that ultimately gave every right to every color in the world as one true citizen? That even those who illegally entered can also possibly be granted a chance? So for the good of all, let's give peace a chance, shall we?

Note 2: I have witnessed and seen both the poorest and richest countries in the world, yet none compared to this country, my country guarantees, the true and sincere practice and applications of freedom. This doesn't make it all perfect but nothing comes close on any part of this world, hence the title of this blog. IMHO.

Thanks for your reads and comments.

Have a nice evening and or day.

We all know movies are movies. Sometimes they make us feel good, sometimes bad and sometimes we can learn a lot from them, fiction or not. This particular movie, which is based from the life of Chris Kyle, a Texan who became a member of the Navy Seal after the bombing of the Twin Towers in September 11, 2001, not only did give me all the feelings of happiness, sadness but also made me understand our position why we are out there in foreign land with a mission that is both gripping and crucial to our survival.

He felt compelled to do something for his country. He dedicated all his strength and hope to make our country a safer place.

As a boy because he was small he was always picked on by the bullies but with his father's permission to fight back when it is needed, he became committed to help the underdogs which is the core of his principles.

This movie made me understand how justification of killing is based on who you are fighting for. Based on whom you believe to be right and stand by with that right. I felt that in believing that the attack on our land by the so called terrorist, he went on to fight them where they are knowing that our country is safer that way. It is evident when he said: "WOULD YOU WANT ALL THESE PEOPLE TO COME TO OUR COUNTRY AND KILL US?

Anyways, contrary to what most think that "one's freedom fighter can be someone else's hero", on this movie or on his life story, we know who the bad guys are. We know they are out to kill us, but instead of that to happen, we go out there and kill them. With a carefully planned strategy and orchestrated effort, they (US FORCE) carefully identify who they are and accomplish their mission.

What touched me most is that these people, (soldiers) are not just killing machine. They do have heart and conscience. They raise family and has love ones. They know the dreadful feeling of losing a fellowman. But yet, to them, their mission is to protect our country and to remain loyal to what we believe in.

This is a man who believed that with all his killings, he did a great service to his fellow citizens, knowing that he killed all the bad guys which earned him the name "LEGEND".

NOTE: My take is that: I believe there are bad guys. Their mission is to kill us. I will never hesitate to participate in that killing if it makes this world a better place. If I were young, I would enlist right now, get trained and be one of these people who sacrifice d all they've got.

Thank you all for your reads and comments.

Quite simply, because they tend to be Bible thumpers. This means every day they pray for the second coming of their God. However, the Bible is very explicit this can not happen if Israel is not destroyed. To them, they should fight to preserve Israel, but at the same time do so with the knowledge it is doomed. Blessed are they who help this happen they believe.

So along comes Iran with it's nuclear program. Oh the self named Christians are overjoyed. The Final Days are here at last they exhort. Sure, tell Iran no to nuclear weapons. Rattle swords. Offer Israel better weapons. And in their churches give thanks for the coming war and the coming of their Lord as soon as 7 true Jews stand on a hill outside of Jeruselam and watch it burn. Joyously the cross followers sing Nearer my God to thee. Candlelight rallies praising their God and mock cursing of Iran.

Then it happens and for the first time their blood truly runs icy with fear. Iran is saying no to nuclear weapons and proposes a peace deal Israel can live with. But, but, but, Israel has to be destroyed before their God can come back. Say No to the deal they urge the President. They send a letter to Iran telling that even if the deal is made, they will do their best to unmake it. How lucky Israel is that they run the Congress here and maybe they can block the peace. No God can return if there is peace in the mid-East. Fear not they tell their followers. We will not go to war, but we will block the peace and destroy anyone who works to make it happen. Our Lord will come again.

Meanwhile, a new deal is worked out. This time the US is barely in the loop. Peace may come after all and the poor, sad Born Again wish they were Christians may have to wait another 2,000 years before they have another opportunity to gloat over dead people.

They cry, gnash their teeth and show the world there is nothing of God about them.

I wish I can only talk about love. I wish this world is inundated with nothing but peace and love. But reality is hard to face when our world is rocked by terrorism. And many of us just want to fold it as though it never affect any of us.

Well not me. You can say anything you want but I will talk about it for as long as it is happening. It is my right.


Belgium attack is not an isolated case. In fact it is just a part of very ordinary events that is now happening in our times.

My advice? Be very vigilant and pray that it doesn't happen to you and your love ones. Be very observant.

Obama has the audacity to say that it is not about religion. What do you think this is?

Someone is accused of copying homework...

I think the EU is a bit of a Trabant, it will always be unstable and unfit to carry any capacity of trade worthy of talking about despite being designed to do so.
And as for all the all the Lobbyist groups that have sprung up to suck it dry. I think they would agree it should have TIT painted on the side.
