I stumbled upon your threads of interesting debates, and would like to ask if I could join in? Injustice everywhere, even in the saftey of our homes. The governments try to control everything.. practically wanting our souls. You know about the chip they put in people's hands or foreheads? It was prophecized in many religious books, and documents. The only true justice left in this world is those of us who fight the corrupt and malign megalomaniacs who call themselve's authority. We shouldnt put those who seek to destroy and control into power. What is the price of our souls, and emotions?! They hide behind cameras, satelites, and scapegoats.. and they demand us to submit.. hah. Government=Oppressive Slavery. Thanks for your time, and plz write back with your response. (aka. The Shroud)

CDR: Zero Tolerance Gun Grabbing Glee! (and where is the ACLU?)
by Anonymous 15 Nov '00

[the following snipped from the current Liberator Online www.self-gov.org] Paper Guns Cause Real Trouble While waiting for school buses, a friend taught Virginia seventh grader Bruce Cruz how to make a "gun" out of paper. It's easy -- the kind of school-room origami that kids have done for ages. You just fold two pieces of paper about six times. The "gun" can just as easily be shaped like a boat or a plane. At home, Bruce showed a family member his new trick, making one "gun" out of white school notebook paper. He tossed both into his backpack and forgot about them. In school, the two "guns" fell out of his backpack while Bruce was taking out a book. A teacher seized them. The teacher said nothing. But in the second period, a security guard removed Bruce from class and marched him to the principal's office. School policy prohibits students from possessing "an instrument or device that resembles or looks like a pistol, revolver or any type of weapon..." Apparently, that's true even if the object in question is made out of *paper.* Bruce was suspended for 10 days. After protest from Bruce's mother, the suspension was dropped to "only" two days. His mom is trying to get the suspension cleared from his permanent record -- or if that's not possible, to at least have the record include a precise description of the kind of "gun" involved. What's next -- kids expelled for carrying *pictures* of guns? (Source: Newport Daily Press /Sierra Times / November 11, 2000) --- Student Expelled for Casting Spell Still more evidence -- as if it were needed -- that the government school system is getting ever loonier: The ACLU is defending 15-year-old Broken Arrow, Oklahoma high school student Brandi Blackbear. Blackbear says she was suspended for 15 days last December by school officials who accused her of being a witch and casting a magic spell that caused a teacher to become ill. According to the ACLU, Blackbear was called to the principal's office after the teacher became sick and had to be hospitalized. Blackbear, then a ninth-grader, was questioned about her interest in Wicca, a pagan religion. Officials had learned she had checked out a book from the school library that contained a section on Wicca. According to the lawsuit, after questioning her, officials told Blackbear "that she was an immediate threat to the school" and suspended her for "a disruption of the education process." Blackbear -- who says she's not a witch and does not practice the Wicca religion -- also says school officials told her that a five-pointed star with a circle she had drawn on her hand was an occult symbol and that she couldn't display it. Thus the ACLU lawsuit also accuses school officials of trying to suppress expression of, or interest in, the Wicca religion. The ACLU also argues the school violated the girl's civil rights by seizing her personal notebooks containing horror stories she had written. All in all, the lawsuit claims violations of the First, Fourth, Fifth, Ninth and 14th Amendments to the U.S. Constitution as well as breaches of the Civil Rights Act. "I, for one, would like to see the so-called evidence this school has that a 15-year-old girl made a grown man sick by casting a magic spell," said Joann Bell, executive director of the ACLU's Oklahoma chapter. She added that Blackbear had been tormented by the charges and resulting publicity. An attorney for the school district said it would "defend itself vigorously." (Sources: Associated Press story, October 21, 2000) * * * A Despotism Over Mind and Body... "A general State education is a mere contrivance for molding people to be exactly like one another; and as the mold in which it casts them is that which pleases the dominant power in the government, whether this be a monarch, an aristocracy, or a majority of the existing generation; in proportion as it is efficient and successful, it establishes a despotism over the mind, leading by a natural tendency to one over the body." -- John Stuart Mill, 1859

Soldier Testifies on Germ Warfare By MARI YAMAGUCHI, Associated Press Writer TOKYO--Yoshio Shinozuka is still haunted by the ghoulish experiments he helped carry out on captured Chinese civilians and soldiers as part of Japans top-secret biological warfare program during World War II. The Japanese military performed vivisections without anesthesia in northern China, casually referring to the people as "logs," the veteran recalled Wednesday in Tokyo District Court. "I remember using the word as we compared how many logs we cut that day with other unit members," he said. Though Shinozuka, 77, has spoken out before about his role, his testimony makes him the first member of the notorious Unit 731 to detail Japans biological warfare activities for the legal record. He was called as a witness for nearly 180 Chinese suing the Japanese government for compensation and an apology for the deaths of family members allegedly killed by the unit. Shinozuka testified about participating in the mass production of cholera, dysentery and typhoid germs at the units base in the city of Harbin in the early 1940s. He said he was often told to help out departments that needed to boost germ production for upcoming deployments, including the 1939 Nomonhan clash with Soviet troops near Mongolia and several other germ bombing attacks in southern China in the 1940s. He said that just before the Nomonhan attack, he was responsible for transferring dysentery and typhoid germs from test tubes to bigger jars, packing them into barrels, sealing them and taking them to a night train for the attack. Several unit members died after contracting typhoid. Shinozuka said he is still bothered by the vivisections, or surgical experiments on living people. "I committed all these war crimes because I was ordered to do so," he said. "The government should try to learn about the victims. I really think its time for Japan to face this issue with humanitarian consideration." Shinozuka said the unit members were prohibited from disclosing to outsiders what happened inside the unit. Notes and other written instructions were all collected afterward. Former Unit 731 pilot Shoichi Matsumoto told the court later Wednesday that he spread plague-infected fleas from an airplane over Hangzhou in 1940 and Nanjing in 1941. Matsumoto told the court he carried healthy rats from a Tokyo suburb to Harbin to get them infected with bubonic plague. He also flew to Singapore and Java with the rats. The two veterans were testifying in the case, filed in 1997, that say at least 2,100 people were killed in the experiments. The trial is expected to continue for several more months. Although some Japanese veterans such as Shinozuka have come forward in recent years and confessed to war crimes, the Japanese government has resisted making official apologies to China. Several years ago -after decades of denial -Tokyo finally acknowledged that Unit 731 existed. But it has refused to confirm the extent of its activities. Japanese textbooks too often present only brief, perfunctory accounts of the nations aggression in East Asia from the mid-1930s until the wars end in 1945. Shinozuka said one of his reasons for testifying was disappointment with the governments efforts to come clean about the war, and said he was deeply sorry for his actions. "What I have done was something that nobody should have done as a human being," he said. "I cannot escape that responsibility." http://www.latimes.com/wires/20001115/tCB00V0223.html

CDR: BRITAIN DEPLOYS 'CYBERCOPS' TO FIGHT INTERNET CRIME (Fwd)
by Bill Stewart 15 Nov '00

Unnamed Administration Sources forwarded this message about a new Internet-based terrorist group in Offshore Northwestern Europe: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Britain deploys 'cybercops' to fight Internet crime By NICK HOPKINS The Guardian November 15, 2000 LONDON - The rising tide of Internet crime - hacking, porn rackets, extortion and fraud - is to be tackled in Britain by a squad of "cybercops." British Home Secretary Jack Straw said the unit will be headed by 80 officers recruited from the police, customs service, national crime squad and National Criminal Intelligence Service (NCIS). Money is also being provided to help fund a 24-hour international hotline for detectives from different countries to "trade information on potential attacks on the national infrastructure." The initiative follows intelligence that shows terrorists are increasingly using the Internet for recruitment and planning. Internet crime has soared in the last three years as criminals have begun to realize the opportunities it offers. The dissemination of computer viruses, such as the "I Love You bug," which wreaked havoc last summer, is also on the rise. Medium-sized businesses are particularly vulnerable to these kinds of attacks because they cannot afford protective filtering systems. Recent research showed that 60 percent of Britain's online businesses have suffered hacking while worrying new trends include evidence of an international Internet trade in body parts. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- (Distributed by Scripps Howard News Service.

CDR: Lawyers leading in Florida!
by Tim May 15 Nov '00

15 Nov '00

I can no longer keep count of how many lawsuits and other actions are now in the courts in various counties in Florida and heading for the State Supreme Court. At least a dozen, though some are being consolidated. More have been added, so the overall count will likely go up. There is not even any point in my trying to summarize what the various camps are arguing about...pregnant chads, due process, dimpled chads, explanations of why recounts are required, hanging chads, voter fraud, Carol Roberts switching ballots, swinging door chads, constitutionality of recounts, rights of African-Americans, sunlight tests, butterfly ballots, legality of absentee ballots arriving late, chads, and indented pregnant dimpled chads. While there were past close elections, and even elections where fraud probably gave the election to the loser, this looks to be a curiously modern election: the same lawyers who got O.J. off will get Gore into the White House. --Tim May -- (This .sig file has not been significantly changed since 1992. As the election debacle unfolds, it is time to prepare a new one. Stay tuned.)
