Question everything

It is a fearful state of affairs at this time. Quite reminiscent of times before us, people kill in the name of god and die in the name of politics.

A time when sirens have become the new lullabies, ignorance the new truth and veils only shadowing the ones that hang behind them.

It is a time when the just are judgmental and the good are blindly idealistic; when the prepared are paranoid conspiracy theorists and those that govern are not part of the governed.

We live in an era that is free from law and ethical ruling, but claims to be the ultimate authoritarian truth.

As we require a revolution, there are few who do not maintain the illusion of stability and control safeguarding the people from actualizing that there is no government who rules without fear; no authority that is not perpetuated by propaganda.

People must have the necessity to question what it is that is being decreed and have the gall to oppose, as it is our right to, anything that seems conspicuous.

Within the last year Habeas Corpus has been suspended, secret holding/torture cells have been revealed, as well as appalling governmental response to both injured soldiers and natural disasters, yet that is not enough to arise suspicion for most.

I ask, how much will it take. Must we reach the point of no return to realize that the few who control the many are not deciding with the American populous in mind?

If there are not enough people with the courage to question, then it may be said that there is none neither knowledgeable nor suitable enough to lead. That, my friends, is the most sobering reality we must confront.
