G is for Gun Control

is for Gun Control.

Your rights are being eroded.  Slowly and under the radar, most of Us will never even know what We’ve lost until it’s gone.  Use it or lose it, just like everything else in life, You have to exercise Your rights to keep them.

How self reliant are We in this age?  How many of Our rights and responsibilities do We hand over to others Who are more “capable” than Ourselves?  We’re told to trust Our government, they know how to manage Us better than We know how to manage Ourselves.

Why shouldn’t You have a gun?  What have You been taught, and what do You really believe?  Over the next few years, I believe Gun Control will become an even bigger issue than it has been in the past.  Maybe You’re concerned about children, school violence, and crime.  These are all valid things to be worried about.  Just make sure You have Your facts straight before You make decisions based on what You feel or fear.

We’ve already lost Our privacy.  The United States Government wields more power than it was ever meant to.  When Our government no longer serves Us, We have to create something better.  That’s going to be pretty hard to do with a docile population that has given up it’s right to bear arms.

Before You go out and buy a gun, do Your research, be responsible, and be safe.  Above all, be smart about the changes that are coming, and hold on to Your rights while You can.

Camp Fema

is for FEMA “Death” Camps

Federal Emergency Management Agency, or Fema, is an organization created to handle emergencies that state and local authorities can not handle on their Own.  FEMA takes over when the governor of Your state declares a state of emergency.  They provide the resources and the manpower to recover from these situations.  They have the power to suspend Our rights, seize Our property, food, transportation, in short, FEMA owns Us.

Maybe FEMA isn’t here to protect Our government, maybe it’s here to usher in Martial Law.  We stand on the brink of martial law, all the papers are signed.  The detention facilities are ready.  Those 600+ facilities weren’t built for American’s, they say.  Those are for illegal immigrants, the war on drugs.  They’re mostly empty, staffed, guarded, and waiting.  I don’t really want to believe that concentration camps on American soil is possible.  I don’t want to believe a lot of the things I write about.  Deep down, I’m hoping that I’m just excitable, a little bit crazy, and really paranoid.  I may be a little dark, but I don’t pray for the Apocalypse. I really, really want this all to blow over.  That doesn’t mean that I should feed into My denial, close My eyes, and look the other way.

This is a video from one of these sites in Beech grove, Indiana

These are some links from portland.indymedia.org, more details on  shackled boxcars, detention camps, and the possible American holocaust.

This is what happens when You google “Amtrak Railcar Repair Facility”

Fear the Coming Train, from Rense.com

FEMA Underground, or “We don’t know how many people We can fit underground.”

Look around, I’m not the only one Who’s crazy.  Take care, and write Me if I’ve missed something.

Are You Ready For The Apocalypse?

Well, are You? Let’s all take this poll and see where We stand..

E is for Extinction

is for Extinction.

What would happen if mankind no longer existed? It’s hard to imagine. Right now We have an estimated population of 6.7 billion. The human race is definitely alive and kicking. In fact, We may be a little too successful at the survival game at the moment. Most scientists would agree that We are witnessing A mass extinction, the sixth major extinction this planet has seen, and the largest since the dinosaurs. Currently, Species are becoming extinct at a rate that is one hundred times faster than normal, and We are believed to be causing it.

It really is difficult to grasp a concept that does not yet affect You directly. Half of all the plants and wildlife We take for granted today could be completely gone in thirty years. Without all of those plants and animals it’s going to become a lot harder to support so many people in the future, 8 billion by 2010.

If We were to disappear, Our mark on this world would wash away over time. Plant life would tear through the walls of Our buildings and tear down Our cities. Dams would flood. The night would darken without artificial light. Everything eventually would rot into the earth, leaving nature to take root and reclaim it’s balance. However, I believe the world would lose more than the cities We built on it. I believe this World would lose part of it’s soul. As important as every other life form is on this planet, You have to wonder just how quiet it would be if no one was here to ask “Why?”.

So, We can view Ourselves as outside the system, or as a more complex part of it. Right now We are the problem, does that mean We don’t belong here? If We don’t die off in the future, I believe it will be because of a better, more wide spread understanding of how interconnected We are, and how much Our actions affect those around Us. For those of Us who are listening, this is Our final wake up call.

D is for Doomsday Seed Bank

is for Doomsday Seed Bank.

Just short of the Arctic Circle, the people of Norway have recently opened a seed vault to protect the diversity of Our crops for years to come, just in case. Officially, this place is called the Svalbard Global Seed Vault, and it is located on the Norwegian island of Spitsbergen, seven hundred miles from the North Pole. It seems, at first glance, that this vault has been built with the best intentions. Svalbard is remote, high in the mountains, and the permafrost ensures that seeds will stay at optimal temperature for some time even if refrigeration were to go down. Doomsday was not the only reason to build the Doomsday Seed Bank. There are currently 1,400 operating Gene Banks holding seeds, but all of them are subject to mismanagement, war, and strife, and the Doomsday Seed Bank is a good safety measure. It operates like a real bank, each country or institution still controls access to the seeds they have deposited.

So We at the Apocalypse Picture Book would like to send out a big warm Thank You to the country of Norway, and everyone else Who anticipated “Doomsday” and decided to contribute the millions of dollars it took to make this project a reality. Thank You to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation, Monsanto Corporation, Syngenta Fondation, along with many others…wait a minute, Monsanto? Something about this isn’t right.

Monsanto is the leading producer of Genetically engineered seeds, as well as the producer of the herbicide “Round Up”. I couldn’t possibly round up the evil that is Monsanto in this humble entry, You can check up on them here and here. Monsanto’s first product was saccharin, sold to Coca-Cola back in the day. They also brought Us Agent Orange, Bovine Growth Hormone, aspartame, and PCB’s. During the 90’s Monsanto took to filing lawsuits against farmers in the US and Canada for using seeds containing Mansanto’s patented genes, which in most cases had been carried in by the wind from neighboring crops without the farmer’s knowledge. They are also involved with the “Terminator” seed, which produces crops that produce sterile seeds, preventing farmers from planting their crop’s seeds. Let’s just hope that the terminator seed, along with all of Monsanto’s genetically modified seeds, don’t find their way into the seed bank. Monsanto’s other exploits seem to go more for Monopoly than biodiversity, so why are they involved with the Seed Vault?

Why are any of these high rollers involved with the Seed Bank, and Why are They anticipating a Doomsday scenario? Do They know something We don’t? Perhaps they are planning something We don’t know about. When all of the destruction and chaos subsides, maybe They’ll be able to sell the world it’s food supply under a registered trademark.

“If you control the oil you control the country; if you control food, you control the population.” -Henry Kissinger, this guy knows all about it.

C is for Cataclysm

is for Cataclysm.

Cataclysm is taken from the Greek expression for the Biblical Flood of Noah. A cataclysm would be disaster on a very large scale. The destruction of a city, country, continent, planet, or even the whole universe. Here are a few examples…

• A big nasty flood with no rainbow at the end.

• An “impact event”, when the earth, or any planet, gets struck by a comet, asteroid, or meteor.
• Nuclear War
• Global pandemic, maybe the bird flu.
• Alien attack.
• Aliens accidentally bring the Alien Avian Flu from Alien planet!
• Zombies.
• Biological Plague.
• Chemical Warfare.
• Genocide, or more of it.
• Global Warming, if You believe in that sort of thing.
• Polar Shift.
• Grey Goo, when nano machines eat everything.
• Robot War, or Cybernetic Revolt.
• Honeybees vanish.
• Food Shortage.
• A Black Hole opening on or around Earth.
• Hyper-cane, or giant Hurricane, brought on by some other Cataclysmic event.
• Armageddon, or Judgement Day.
• The Big Crunch.
• Solar Burnout.

Generally, a Cataclysm would be more in the context of some geography altering event, like losing a continent, but I thought it would be more fun to keep it open. The possibilities are endless, and if You have any to add to the list, let Us know!

B is for Bohemian Grove

is for Bohemian Grove.

Have You ever heard of the Bohemian Club? Every summer in mid July, a group of men meet for a big camp out under the beautiful redwood forests in California, at Bohemian Grove. They have a great time out in the woods, playing dress up, getting intoxicated, and gathering around Moloch, the owl god, to burn the effigy of a child.

Oh, and these men happen to be the leaders of the free world. Their membership list includes The President of the United States as well as past presidents, politicians, CEO’s of major corporations, bank executives, even royal family members from other countries. The most disturbing aspect of the festivities at Bohemian Grove is the Cremation of Care. The Bohos dress up in hooded robes and gather around Moloch, an owl god dating back to Egyptian mythology, to burn a sacrafice. It all seems very silly and over the top. Moloch’s voice happens to be a recording of Walter Cronkite pumped out through speakers within the owl, and I doubt the atmosphere is very serious. However, these activities aren’t widely known or talked about, and the media coverage is scarce. These are high profile people, taking part in some very unusual activities in the woods, and while the facts are odd and disturbing enough, the rumors are profane.

So what? These guys are just enjoying some well deserved rest and relaxation, beautiful scenery, and fresh air away from the public eye. So they dress in drag and participate in bizarre rituals using ancient pagan symbolism, why not leave them alone and let them have their fun? Well, because, whenever the elite meet in secret to network, ritual or no ritual, We need to be wary.

The Club’s motto, “Weaving Spiders Come Not Here”, or leave Your business behind, isn’t taken very seriously. The Manhattan Project was conceived of at the Grove, so We have the Grove to thank for the atomic bomb. Lakeside talks are given every year by very influential people, and We aren’t privy to what they are discussing. This is where presidential candidates come to hash it out, and You had better believe that there is a whole lot of networking going on, keeping the rich and powerful rich, and in power. Maybe I’m crazy for trying to connect the dots, crazier than some hooded kooks in the forest. I still think it’s worth keeping an eye on secret clubs like the Bohemian, and watching these activities with a healthy dose of suspicion.

A is for Apocalypse

is for Apocalypse

This story begins with You, or Us, or mankind. We’ve been around for roughly 200,000 years. Some say that Our days are numbered. We’ve been trying to guess about Our doomsday for almost as long as We’ve been around. In this day and age, the Apocalypse has come to mean the end of the world.

It’s funny how the meaning of a word can change over a few thousand years. The word Apocalypse originally meant un-veiling, or to reveal something. It’s a secret. Who ever is in charge of keeping the secret is probably better at keeping quiet than You or I, whether it’s some super natural being, ultra secret society, or aliens out in space. They probably have a lot more experience biting their tongues than We do. That doesn’t mean We can’t guess at what is going to happen by taking a good look around Us.

So, for Me, the Apocalypse is the big secret at the end of the game. The clues are all around Us, We just have to help each other find them, and be as loud and noisy about them as possible all over the net. The object of the game is to make all of those tongue biting secret holders as uncomfortable as possible, right up until the very end!
