The last time I was in New York was on June 28, 1994 and I went to the World Trade Center and I can't believe that the place I was standing at is no longer there. When I was there, parts of the World Trade Center were still being repaired from the terrorist attack in 1993. Meanwhile, I heard that the guys who flew the airplanes into those buildings committed a cowardly act. A cowardly act? For Osama Bin Ladin it may be a cowardly. How many people do you know that would be willing to fly an airplane into a building? It sure doesn't sound cowardly to me. It sounds like it could be extremely painful having your flesh burn up from all that jet fuel. I don't know how long it would take to croak from doing something like that, but even going through as little as 10 seconds of feeling your skin burning must be excruciatingly and unbearably painful. What would cause someone to fly an airplane into a building? I think you can rule out that they did it because they were happy. I never once heard someone say "well, I am so happy with the way the way this world is and the way my life is, I think that I will hijack a plane and fly it into a building because I have nothing better to do."
I remember when I was 7 years old and I was 1st hearing about people who were murdering people and committing other crimes and I was given a very simplified answer that the reason why people do that is because they choose to be bad and I couldn't figure out why anyone would chose to be bad? Once I started going to school I started getting picked on from bullies because I happened to be different and I wasn't interested in being a conformist jock asshole like everyone else was. As time went on, I kept getting picked on worse and worse. By the time I was in the 3rd grade, I was terrorized so bad, I wanted to xxxxx xxxxx xxx on myself. I was only 9 years old when I felt that way and things continued to get even worse by the time I was in the 6th grade. When I tell people this, they tell me that I was ahead of my time. It ain't easy for me to talk about all this shit, but I feel that I must tell the world. I also went through that shit when I was going to school because I used to be Laura Ingalls in my previous lifetime and I was punished by being reincarnated back into this fucked up world of stupidity for failing to tell it like it is in my novels when I was Laura Ingalls, so I need to get it right in this lifetime. Laura Ingalls failed to go into full graphic detail about what she wanted to do to Nellie Olson in her novels, however it is listed on the webpage with my stories when I talk about being Laura Ingalls. Also, I forgot to mention this the last time I talked, but Laura Ingalls used to pick boogers from her nose and eat them too and she never mentioned that in any of her novels either.
Anyway, for those guys who flew the airplanes, they probably did it because something really horrible happened to them. Maybe they were picked on when they went to school, but I would suspect that they probably did it because someone who they were close to were murdered as a result of American imperialism. I'm not saying that what they did was right, but that is what is going to happen when people are fucked with so severely. Same with Eric and Dylan when they did there thing at Columbine because they were tormented by a bunch of assholes when they were going to school.
Because I was picked on at school and had to deal with having pencils and crayons thrown at me all day made it quite difficult to learn, so I was put in special Ed when I got into junior high and it did at least reduce the severity of how bad I was picked on and it averted a Columbine type incident 20 years before it happened, but it added insult to injury because my special Ed teacher told me that being picked on was my fault. By the time I was a sophomore in high school I wanted to get out of special Ed because I felt that they put me there as a way to discriminate against me for being different. I wasn't nearly as militant back then as I am now because I was unaware of how badly I was being duped by the main stream corporate media, which is even MUCH worse now than it was then. That was also the same time that the so called "students" in Iran took 52 Americans hostage at the American Embassy there because they were pissed because this country was giving medical treatment to the ousted Shaw of Iran. Don't get me wrong, the Ayatollah Komany was a total douchbag, but the media had me duped into believing that the Shaw of Iran was a sweet little angel.
It was about a year before I got out of high school when I started to be exposed to the horrifying truth of what was really going on. I found out that the Shaw of Iran was responsible for torturing and murdering thousands of people. I also found out that our government was supporting right wing death squads in Central America and at that point I knew that a major terrorist attack was going to occur in this country.
In the mid 1980s, I went to a club in Chicago called Medusas and it was the coolest thing I have ever experienced in my life. They played all kinds of cool industrial and goth music that I had never heard of before. They played a lot of cool music videos at Medusas too. A lot of videos showed images of war and buildings being blown up and things like that because a lot of people knew that a major war was coming. Some of the videos they played were really bizarre too. I really enjoyed the video they showed of a guy who was crawling on a bathroom floor, vomiting blood while struggling to make it to the toilet. That was the most beautiful video that I have ever seen in my life! I felt more comfortable at Medusas than most places because the people there looked weird. There were a lot of punk rockers there, but I really enjoyed seeing people who had blue hair.
Thanks to Medusas, I was able to discover cool music like industrial and Goth and punk rock. I really enjoyed the Dead Kennedys. I get the feeling that the biggest catastrophy is still yet to come. I remember hearing Jello Biafra doing a piece on his spoken words performance called, "why I'm glad the Space Shuttle Blew up?" A lot of people were appalled at hearing a title like that but Jello Biafra mentioned that if the space shuttle that blew up made it home safe, the space shuttle following it would have been sent up with plutonium on it and if that 1 blew up, it would really be catastrophic, but our government has decided to send off space shuttles with plutonium on it anyway and sooner or later, a space shuttle with plutonium on it is going to blow up, but it might finally lead to the American people getting their head out of their ass, if any of us are going to live after that happens.
I know I enjoyed Medusas because of the people there looked like they were cool, but a lot of them were nothing but false prophesies, because they were clicky, unfriendly assholes and you can't change the world as long as people are clicky snotty assholes with attitude. Now, more than ever, people are going to have to adjust their snotty attitudes and work together if things are going to change for the better. If not, then maybe the world does deserve to end. Also an important way to bring an end to terrorism is it is extremely important to find a way to make everyone happy. Then people won't be terrorists anymore. Peace
Well, it makes me feel good to put my 2 cents in regarding what happened on September 11. I read another piece in regards to what happened on September 11 on December 16. You can also go back to Pat's vision of the world page to read all the other cool suff that he has written.
