PETA and Drones

The People for Ethical Treatment of Animals or PETA has called for the deployment of drones to catch hunters, article. While their intentions may be good, how far are they willing to go to catch the "hunters" in question? If they can't be found through normal means, would they invade my home to find these "hunters" or so they're calling them? At this point when is being a vigilante (those that don't work for law enforcement but do the dirty work to hand-over the perpetrator) legal? It's called obstruction of justice if it's at all logical, but what am I saying, why would it be logical? This is all entirely subjective, but there are multiple solutions. Developing some sort of paperwork to explicitly state what they can and cannot do with the drones, given there are very steep measures when they are violated. Strictly prohibit the use of drones within residential air space and/or the movement in or around those areas.

PETA has long been an advocate of the free animal and the good treatment of those animals wild or domesticated. They've become quite a large animal themselves, their many advertisements, political activists and high paid celebrity campaigns. I've always been keen on their activities and positive on their outcomes, but as of late they seem to hold the animals higher than their contributors and sponsors. What would we do without PETA? We have the Humane Societies throughout the globe and they take a much lesser aggressive approach to animal cruelty. If PETA really wanted to reverse the cruelty paid to animals, they need to educate people not belittle them and hold protests against law, it's heartless and irrelevant. How do they not know this already?

PETA fights a completely different battle like most organizations we apply bandages to stop the bleeding instead of mending the wound. The root of the problem is not the government or whatever organization conspires to animal cruelty, it's their mentality toward livestock and animals alike. How the drones are going to solve this only PETA could know, but whatever spin they plan to put on it is only going to anger PETA followers with a free mind, like myself.

On that same note, drones are popping up all over the place in different states and unlikely cities. Law enforcement is finding their decreased prices and increased investigative capacity to be quite enticing during these "troubling" times. Apparently, according to their own reports, there is more crime than there has ever been, it's just plain lies. They want to deploy drones to catch kidnappers in particular, while I applaud them, I'm also disgusted. If there are no leads, will they spy on every home in the city until the person is found? There are already street cameras everywhere, GPS on every device and satellite shots of my home, now you want maneuverability to watch inside my home? When will it stop? Never, but I will say this, they went through the proper means to procure and operate the drones, all while knowing that it would soon be public knowledge.

Breakfast

I've been experimenting with breakfast, and what I mean by that is the composition of the meal. I found that a small balanced breakfast not only curbs the body and increases my willpower for certain foods throughout the day, but it gives me great energy. I've recently been given little choice about my food preferences and had to mold my diet around it, I had previously had muesli and greek yogurt with coffee every morning without fail. I am now consuming sugar filled oatmeal with regular American style sugar yogurt and coffee flavored water. This is working at it's best every morning, I'll explain how I came to that conclusion.

I started by eating the usual breakfast food with rolls and whatever bread items to avoid the eggs and sausages, I'd have a yogurt here and there, but I couldn't stomach the high contents of sugar, so I'd been avoiding it. I rediscovered eggs and decided that was the way to go while my choices were limited, I stuck by them for a month or so until I got really bad stomach aches for a couple days and found it was the eggs. Basically what I did from there led me to my current morning diet.

I ate singular items, eggs, yogurt, breads, rice, fish or beans to find what was causing my aches, pains or cravings throughout the day. I've found that the fish and eggs were the cause of all my problems; I narrowed it down to oatmeal when available or toast with peanut butter on it, I try to avoid the peanut butter toast because I eat that all day. I will also try to get the regular yogurts and when not available I have no substitute, so hopefully they didn't run out. The coffee water is always there, it's a staple so it would seem, quite sad actually.

So I've been able to build up a tolerance to all the sugar in the foods from what appears to be ConAgra, so exciting, and have finally stopped shitting my brains out. I do the best I can to consume wholesome foods such as fresh fruits and vegetables when they're available, but that's once per week at the most. The bulk of foods are frozen and/or canned, my diet is heavy on the bread and peanut butter side. I build up my own stock of dry goods whenever possible, hoping to add decent oats to my wares.

It's hard to describe the level of convenience and variety we take for granted every day, just know that people around the world, Americans included, don't have that same luxury. If you would ever have the heart, keep them in your mind.

Cuba, North Korea and Communism

The US and Cuba have been at each others' necks for far too long, the animosity started when Fidel Castro took power, the Cuban Missile Crisis and Che Guevara spread his powerful belief in what he viewed as a perfect system. Since that time Cuba has been nothing but cooperative with the US and their allies. We don't find them participating in the the worldly issues that involve political and war conflict, but the US Government still shuns their leaders and refuses to open ourselves to them.

A recent article about Beyoncé and Jay-Z going to Cuba on people-to-people licenses got a lot of attention. Is it such a sin to go to Cuba? It's a beautiful place and there are plenty of hospitable areas to roam around. Better yet, one would be supporting a nation in need of economic stimulus. I believe that the Cubans need more leg room than they're given.

The Cuban leader Fidel pleads with North Korea in this article to refrain from nuclear entanglements, saying that it would affect them as much or more than it may affect the nation they declared on. This would also contribute greatly to an already deteriorating trust with other allied nations. I find this interesting as the talk heats up about North Korea as they become anxious about the realization of their threats. In this article it discusses how China has severed ties with North Korea as they are not willing to sacrifice everything they've achieved.

It's interesting to hear that Cuba would discuss North Korea's bad move, because their ideals are similar. There are few that agree with the Communist ideals, China and Russia have long abandoned them. Not many nations still believe that it's the perfect system. When considered, Communism looks like the true Utopia, everyone is equal, no corruption abound, everything is everyone's. There's one problem, it has one error and that is human nature, power breeds corruption. You'd think it would be considered before implementation, but when you were ruling a nation hundreds of yeas ago, things just were; philosophers and scientists had previously decided to label and name government systems, but most was lost to the dark ages.

Communism is a dying system as the worldly nations discover it's primary flaw, the tyranny, with the discovery wars ensue and new systems emerge; transforming into one that works for their culture, China is a great example of that. Through a hundred years of constant rebellion against the monarchies and authoritarian governments, China finally established a republic. Nothing like that of the Western world, but it was never intended to be and they still believe in the ideals of the collective.

Why Politics isn't Working

We've been going around in circles for at least the past ten years, I'm unable to determine whether it occurred further in our past, but I'm being positive about it. We continue to blame our president and the administration for the negative outcomes of our due process. There are three sections of government, to truly understand why things occur in government you must understand how those work. Furthermore, an educated or valued opinion of any manner would require your experience in that matter, simple actually. What must be done? Are we to completely change our outlook on how we perceive reality?

To both of those questions we can say that the world does not change, it remains intact unless it is either intentionally or unintentionally changed. What does that mean? Well we have so many things that give us the current state of the world and how it's changed over the years. Not that I am an advocate, but a big motivator for change right now is global warming. People all over the world are attempting to minimize their "carbon footprint" on the world to prevent global warming from occurring. Of course this is just an example, but it's something that can't be proven, yet we follow it as though it were. I would also like to use another and it's all social programs, where we assume that every person should innately care for another, regardless of how they treat themselves. The exact reason why seat-belts and helmets were put into law, because we all pay for the negative side affects. So how do we deal with this?

Since I don't have all the answers I'll go in another direction and speak from fact. No matter who is "in charge" at the white house, things will happen the way they are intended, I'm also referring to their affiliated political party. It doesn't matter what the President believes in or what the First Lady thinks is the right thing to do, the people will continue to carry out their lives as they see fit. If you don't understand that, then you need to open your mind, laws do not govern you, you do; those laws are bent around the people's will. For example, many laws are in place that require police officers to arrest or impound vehicles after suspecting a DUI, yet there are cases where the driver is allowed to drive home after they've been pulled over and suspected of drinking. It's highly subjective on whether would be considered "justice" served. If the driver would have killed someone there would be maximum punishment, but did the driver have intent to kill considering he was drunk? Most certainly not, but he does impede on our rights when they subject that danger to everyone else. More or less, all laws are passed, vetoed, removed and enforced with subjective logic.

Since I've laid the ground-work, why doesn't politics work? Simply put, the politicians allow it to dis-function , because they all seem to have this notion that since they were voted into power the majority agrees with their every move. Moreover, the politician feels that they know what's right for the people, fortunately a republic does not work in this manner, kings were abolished for this very reason.

To sum it up I'd say that tyranny should not be tolerated, the day we invite austerity is the day we fall. Keep the nation pure and prosperous, not for the collective, but each individual person.
