Discovery Channel Gunman Is Not an Ecoterrorist if I Am
"Instead of feeling relieved after Wednesday's crisis at the Discovery Channel building ended without injury to any of the hostages a small group of opportunistic pundits and special interest lobbyists salivated. The day they had been waiting for for quite some time had arrived... a day they were preparing for so that when it came they could best to capitalize off the day's events and push their own niche agendas.

(snip)

On May 25th, 2004 I had just finished my last final exam after a few days cramming and little sleep. I went to bed early and remember waking up in my room startled, it was still dark out, and I heard yelling; the yelling was my mother. My mother yelled at me to run. Plain-clothed officers had forced their way into my parent's house, pushed my mother out of the way and ran up the stairs towards my bedroom...
(snip)

After the whole ordeal I was never charged, never even accused, of a single violent act, nor was I charged with or alleged to have encouraged others to be violent, moreover nothing violent ever happened in the events surrounding the case. Perhaps the most pungent statement came from a federal agent who told me, "It's all politics Andy. You stepped on some very powerful toes..." as he attempted to have some bizarre, quasi-parental, heart-to-heart conversation with me while I sat in my jail cell."

1. There is something you can do in that situation.
If you have not done wrong, and thrown in jail wrongly. And your stepping on toes is really showing them what they are doing that is wrong, while knowing you are not perfect.


When they throw you in a materialistic jail, you don't have to go after them, they really aren't at fault, just expand the cell until instead of in holding you, it holds them.

Once it gets big enough, the confinement they try to put you in is turned back on them.


Just keep getting stronger and keep stretching your world over them.


Eventually they are penned into a small enclosure where they can be flipped and let into what is now freedom, or gotten rid of.

It is like how you handle Ayn Rand, let them fly to the island, then make that their entire world, make the gated communities so small, they can not walk on the streets, turn their bunkers into their prisons. While letting any in that can understand by showing them the doors.

It also is part of removal of space time, since the more things removed the simpler it is to see what is going on. But as their space time is removed, yours grows.



And I am still due beer and travel money, and they will pay.
