Hard Core Artists

Ah those days. Those days of before being Left or Right were already decided. I mean the right had such nice things as nice uniforms and nicely choreographed dance steps that could be called marches. While the left limped off into sympathy trips. I would go on to get my uniform, but I knew it was lie.

There is the abortion issue. So far removed from the knowledge that folks with a lot of hormones tend to group together and do things like have sex. This needs apparently needs to be hidden from mass consumption, except in every TV series and movie ever. It tends to make sex by folks way beyond the procreating age, well, profitable. But this consideration is for only old folks until cable news networks need to get involved. So explaining birth control is hidden but sex scandals are all the rage. In the end, no one can tell "kids these days" about birth control but they can preach about who should be the next president of the Untied States. The "left" according to our media input cannot explain the vagaries of sexuality let alone tell a young adult to tell their partner to put a condom on because of cultural considerations-- you see the listener might be Baptist or Muslim.

American Gun Control is a favorite frankly because of all the money around it. The money around it appeals to a lot of Americans because it's not really big money. Thanks to the Second Amendment, which is about people keeping governments from turning them into serfs, gun makers are an exploitative industry. Firearms are so available that folks can't keep their kids from participating in school shootings. And a person can't touch it because it's an Amendment to the constitution of America. Just like Slavery and the 3/5's compromise was actually written in the founding legal basis of these United States. Lord knows, we couldn't outlaw bazookas and assault rifles because they can sell for about half the paycheck of the average shop-keep. In the end, it keeps law enforcement agencies which are not allowed to do their jobs because of this amendment over-employed and looking for something to do. I guess it's all good, but we all know that it isn't.

So where the policing forces of these United States can't do much about armed oppression of minorities, they seem to have found their outlet in making sure our slums are full of suspected murderers and criminals to merit peacekeeping. This policing often leading to death sentences for people that can be accused of misdemeanors according to their State's legal code, and not providing much security for anyone living in those slums, still is the end result signifying LAW AND ORDER for people many miles away so that they can see the TV reports and proclaim that more anti-democratic laws need to be passed.To make sure the futility of reform is underscored, police will provoke riots and encourage looting.

So that leads me to the title of this post, Hard Core Artists. This not a solution to the problems that I have listed above. I use the label to indicate that we must be creative.
