Hardin, MT: Black Ops Takeover? (Updated)

A little town out near Billings, MT. They were railroaded into approving a huge private prison complex, but they never got any contracts. So somebody made of with lots of loot on a municipal bond issue and the city is on the verge of defaulting. Then along comes a rescue. But the rescue is shrouded in secrecy, and the rescuer is all too willing to break the law. This thing is morphing faster than any of us in Internet Land can follow.

The basic story: American Police Force is anything but American, it appears. Someone calling herself a teenage resident says the apparent head of the group speaks poor English with a strong Slavic accent. They refuse to operate in the clear, and the city cabal with them is at least as bad.

More on the story. Lots of sweetheart deals to keep the city cabal supporting the move, and to keep the citizens quiet. Check the comments section for some interesting additions.

Recent MSM report: The APF was patrolling the city for awhile with vehicles marked as police patrol cars. Someone in city government seems to have been suspended for authorizing that. Meanwhile, the comments reflect rising tensions.

I can’t pretend to know just how sinister this really is. The prison itself was a big mistake for the city. Not only were they in a bind, but it made them vulnerable. The entire prison industry in the US is the other half of the War on Drugs, two sides of a deal which never had anything to do with the very real threat of substance abuse, but with making billions by milking the fears of taxpayers. Hardin was suckered into that mess, and now Satan has a castle on their lawn, so to speak. When some black ops arms dealer comes along with sweet promises, they jump on it. I’m sure the townfolk are at least somewhat divided over this whole mess. Obviously neither they, nor we as outsiders watching, can see the whole picture.

APF has already proved themselves lawless. They are at least as dangerous to citizens and rights as Xe (AKA Blackwater), reflecting the elitist Brownshirt mentality. That sort of folks are why Nazi Germany was not the first, nor the last horrific swamp of human evil to foul the face of the earth. Call it a Godwin if you like, but history is loaded with other, less famous examples. Mr. Prince and his ilk are more like the movie depictions of the Antichrist — people who take advantage of spiritual ignorance, a complete misunderstanding of Christ and His mission, and convince folks Satan’s plans are God’s.

By no means should we speculate this is somehow a symbolic anchor point for martial law. We are already part way under martial law, as it has been slowly drifting across the sky for some decades. If this APF fiasco were happening in other places I’ve lived, there would have already been bloodshed. At the very least, some enterprising patriot types would have been sniping the thugs, and perhaps the cabal in Hardin’s municipal government, too. If somewhere along this insane path, someone from APF gets trigger happy, we’ll know just how awful it can be. The real story is just how likely it is your municipal government, or mine, will sell us out for their own personal benefit. People who want power over others cannot ever be called good or decent, and God forbid we ever get stupid enough to call them honest.

Satan is roaming to and fro, seeking whom he may devour. He is a toothless old lion, roaring to scare folks into laying down so he can simply swallow them whole.

Update (01 October 2009): It appears the whole thing will collapse on the identity of the man running APF, Michael Hilton. He has a large number of aliases, along with a very long criminal and civil record of frauds of all kinds. Since he has yet to satisfy some $1 million dollars in judgments against him, we can assume this whole thing will go nowhere unless he finds or has found a really big sugar daddy somewhere. Authoritative details here.

Last One

This is it. I’m not going to chase any more predictions of doom and gloom. From here on out, the only thing I’ll have to say about government will be entirely academic, historical, or real time events as I see them. Speculation I may report from others if it looks really strong, but I’m not going to discuss my theories of doom-n-gloom.

The time for theory and predictions is over. It’s here, and it’s either happening or it’s not.

So for my last predictions, let’s establish my underlying assumption about which I will not debate, nor attempt to prove: Government spokesmen are liars, and government announcements of any type are lies. It may turn out some of the content is factual, but anything which really matters is almost invariably a deception. Government is lying on just about everything.

Perhaps you know there is the seasonal flu vaccine already available from various suppliers right now, and it is not the Swine Flu (H1N1) vaccine, which is another round of stuff coming to the US sometime in the next two weeks. But it may not matter much that there are two different vaccines, because the current seasonal vaccine is so reliably harmful, we can consider it typical for people receiving it to become quite ill. I say if you accept that vaccine, you are a fool. You’ll be an even bigger fool if you take the Swine Flu vaccine later in October/November.

Consider this: The US federal and some individual state governments have already made preparations to reduce quality standards for these vaccines. For example, Washington state has dropped the mercury contamination threshold because they already know the vaccines will contain a dangerously high mercury content, in the form of thimerosal. As far as I know, it is not possible to introduce mercury into the body in any form which will not be toxic, and there is actually no safe threshold. Then there’s the squalene, and an increasing likelihood the Swine Flu vaccine is nothing of the kind, but is actually a toxic cocktail designed to sicken, sterilize, cripple, and kill all who receive it. It may well contain actual viruses, and there is reason to believe it will be included with an injected RFID — without notice. Most diabolical of all is these effects won’t be seen for some weeks or months later in most cases. Yes, I’m telling you I am utterly convinced those in the government pushing this vaccine have evil motives, and hope to see the residents of this nation harmed.

As the noise concerning forced inoculations becomes louder, you will notice not once has anyone in government denied it. You’ll find record of health officials saying it should be voluntary, but you won’t find anyone trying to reassure the population it won’t be forced. Instead, we have dozens of leaks indicating it will not only be forced, it will be utterly shocking in brutality. If you manage to avoid the shot, you’ll be taken by bus to a quarantine camp, a concentration camp. You’ll be treated poorly, fed even worse, and generally feel like an enemy POW. Picture yourself confined in that dome in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina, but without the facilities. At least, this is the current understanding of what is planned.

It may not happen that way in every place. Indeed, I strongly expect a lot of armed folks will respond violently. That means dead troops and cops, along with various health professionals. I’m quite certain various government officials know this, but all too many will do it any way. It’s just the same with a lot of other unspeakably insane things done by government officials here in the US. Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Somalia, and soon Iran — every bit of it based on lies. We have troops in Afghanistan guarding heroin poppy fields. We have already killed more Iraqis than Hussein could ever dream of killing. Meanwhile, we have the various national clandestine services keeping the action going by hiring “terrorists” in Iraq and Pakistan, and they are funding and arming the Taliban. The mythical al-Qaeda is nothing more than a CIA-Mossad-MI6 operation. Here at home, cops sent in provocateurs during recent protests to act with violence so as to justify violence against the protesters. So look for some of the same stupid crap to take place as people attempt to peacefully avoid the vaccines. Someone will pretend to be an anti-government terrorist and will spark violence, justifying an unconscionable crack-down, which will force liberty-minded people to fight back.

And it will all justify yet more lies to herd the entire population into martial law.

So if any of this happens in even one location in the US, I won’t be quite such an idiot, or nut-case, or whatever you want to call it. If no part of this seems to be coming by mid-October, I’m closing this blog. At that point, it won’t make any difference with what goes on inside my head, but there won’t be any point in writing about it. But if much of it happens at all, I may not be able to blog anyway. Either way, I’m through with chasing possibilities. Come back tomorrow and I’ll either tell you of dire events actually happening, or we’ll talk about Linux, Noah, or whatever strikes my fancy.

Poke `Em in the Eye

I won’t pretend I can stop the steamroller of oppression, but I look forward to poking the operator in the eye.

I suppose it’s just possible a few states, or perhaps a few scattered enclaves, could mount an effective resistance to the looming police state. They could refuse to cooperate, and probably make it stick. Within the boundaries they could defend, they would be free. Indeed, we should not discount the possibility a large portion of folks in North America could simply refuse to be part of that future Agenda 21. So we could see Washington DC cut loose and lots of folks just refusing to refer to the denizens as their government.

But I doubt it. It’s just possible the Heartland and Mountain States will show a lot of resistance, but I’m betting they aren’t keeping full track of what’s going on inside Iron Mountain. In my mind, I’m preparing myself for the worst. That’s not some sort of capitulation, but I’m just not worried about it. Only if my mission from God is hindered would I consider taking some action. That is, hindered in such a way I feel compelled by the Holy Spirit to act in some way. God is calling the shots, literally as well as figuratively. My mission is not armed opposition to what’s around the corner.

However, my mission will surely include some entertaining efforts to evade some controls. For example, I’m seriously praying for a future home on wheels. I’d really love to live in a motor home, or a decent trailer with a tow vehicle. Efforts by census takers have morphed into a full inventory of all the details of your existence which bureaucrats consider pertinent to their job of controlling you. It’s awfully intrusive, and lays the foundation for oppressive controls. Oh, you work in the school cafeteria? Welcome to your new job as prison cook, or Army field cook. Once they have control of all that data, don’t think they won’t use it against you. And they are already using field agents to tag the front door of every dwelling, knocking on the doors of every garage, barn, shack, lean-to, and tent. If you move a great deal, or at least can, it will be awfully hard for them to track you. Poke `em in the eye.

How about not having an official job? Do you have some skills and tools allowing you to work at several different jobs, pretty much when you feel like it? That would be a great way to do things. Tell them anything you like: “I’m a professional rabbit hunter.” Or, “I make my living cutting down rose bushes.” Another favorite here in Oklahoma is a very plausible, “I’m a storm chaser.” Maybe you could be a thistle farmer, cricket rancher, baby stroller repairman … you name it. As long as you can work for yourself, and can’t be caught for not paying taxes, you can claim just about anything you like.

The fewer connections between you and the bureaucratic anchors of the system, the better. So if you really need a phone, use the pay-as-you-go cellphones. The minutes aren’t too bad, and you can replace it as often as you need a different number, since the phones have gotten pretty cheap. Get an old laptop and cadge the signal from unsecured nodes, or use the local library for Net time. Exchange PGP/GnuPG keys and encrypt random routine traffic. Did you know there is an extension for Firefox which allows you to encrypt webmail? If it really matters, you can arrange to exchange a one-time-pad set and run that through email. You’ll need a common numbered dictionary, but that’s in the works. Or you can always go back to the Citizen Band (CB) radio way, with your private slang terms. It won’t really matter if you exchange information that has to be kept away from public eyes, just using that stuff for fun (or practice) is a poke in the eye.

Of course, if you find yourself unable to escape that nasty census form, just lie. Tell them you are a lesbian Inuit, 87 years old, with 10 grandchildren of mixed races living in your home. A sin to lie? Pearls before swine. Since they would use the facts as a weapon against you and your Kingdom service, deny them the facts. This is covered under the Covenant of Noah, too. The US government, and the coming UN government, are all illegitimate. Humor them when it suits the mission, but otherwise be prepared to poke `em in the eye, to remind them they aren’t gods.

Speculation for Fun and Entertainment

Let’s dream for a moment.

Let’s dream this flu shot noise is not just a trick, but is multiple tricks. On the one hand, it’s a trick to get people in a panic rush — that is, the ordinary koolaid drinkers who watch mainstream news on TV and such. Get them to line up and take the poison. Never mind how many billions are scraped off the taxpayers, enough for Big Pharma to come back and spread fat “campaign contributions” to your Congressperson.

Now, let’s suppose there is another trick to it, though. Let’s dream TPTB know a bunch of us won’t line up. So they leak it here and there they’re planning to force it, but never officially discuss it. Alongside the flu hysteria they are building an anti-vaccine hysteria. On purpose. And make sure it really looks like they are planning it.

Who would notice if they slipped around and pulled some other stunt? Perhaps use the entire mess, both sides, to create such an awful noise, it covers for some truly awful act. Hmmm. What might that be?

Oh, by the way, did you know it’s just possible, in theory, for the US government to pull out of this depression in the next year? They could get a bunch of other nations to agree with them at the same time to repudiate all national debts. Since most of the bonds, bill, etc., are held by other nations, all holding each others’ debts, they could agree to go that way. It would be painful, but probably the least painful of all options. For one thing, the entire middle class world wide would take a hit. You know, every insurance company, every pension company, and a whole bunch of other companies, are heavily vested in worthless mortgage derivatives. Lots of companies which really don’t do anything but take your money and help you fulfill government mandates will have to close up shop. Everybody’s pension goes away. Savings go poof, along with all 401Ks, etc.

Then, these governments would agree to all get together and support the issue of a new global currency. Future payments from the governments, at least, would be in the new currency. How nice. But what you might not realize is a huge number of companies will close, and even more people would be out of work. Except, the government will no longer be sinking under that massive debt load, so they could afford to front-load a recovery. Yeah, they can start all over again borrowing. Of course, just about the only source of income for anyone will be a government job. In a sense, I suppose, that means everyone who wants to eat will have to seek government assistance, but that means turning yourself over for forced job assistance. Don’t forget, they’ll be needing several hundred thousand new troops real soon now.

And they’ll need lots of people to work the new government-owned industries forced to close, or those the government buys to keep them alive. Since all those mortgages get bailed out, the government will own all the real estate. But, hey, you’ll be back to work … for whatever the government decides you should be paid. And no more benefits than they please to grant. Wherever it is they want you to work. At whatever it is they want you to do.

And as a part of this really cool deal with other nations, a whole bunch of federal lands, and newly obtain federal land confiscations, get turned over to the UN. And folks get driven off their property. And on and on it goes. Try looking it up. I think it’s called Agenda 21. The details are mind-numbingly long and complicated, but it amounts to enslaving the entire world under UN communist control. Government gets to decide whether you even will wear underwear, what type, color and size.

Let’s pretend it won’t matter all the other issues like the flu vaccine, more wars, Global Warming, etc. It’s all just bits and pieces of something far, far bigger. Welcome to the New World Order, citizen. Or is that, Brave New World? I forget. My dreams keep getting mixed up in one big nightmare. You can’t click your red shoes, Dorothy, because Toto is dead and those are chains on your legs.

That Was Fun

So playing with the old Pavilion 542x was fun, even educational. In the end, Windows is about the only thing you can run on it and expect the ACPI to work. At all. With Win2K it runs just about as fast as it once did with XP back in 2002 when it was brand new, given I have doubled the RAM since then.

My daughter needs a computer and this one will have to do. She can get Cox Cable Internet where she lives, and we hope to have it soon, ourselves. They are just about the best in this part of the country.

When I got Win2K working, it was useful for about one day. Then I went back to my trusty old Inspirion 4100 laptop, still running CentOS 5.

Responding to Official Arrogance

What’s it to you?

I’ve written before there is a thread in the Covenant of Noah which permits some armed response to oppression. The point is not so much self-defense, but removing a threat to the community. That assumes you have first already done all you can to build the sense of community which calls for protection. You cannot arbitrarily decide this or that person is a thug from which the community should be protected when you hardly know your neighbor’s name. My point was there is no real difference between the official government and any unofficial de facto government. All humans and organizations stand on trial before God and have to justify what they do. To the degree folks observe the Covenant of Laws, the rightness or wrongness of violent action becomes obvious.

The Liberty Movement is a very broad and diverse bunch. They range between the respectful but honest all the way down to anarchists plotting mischief and mayhem. Most of them assume varying degrees of legitimacy in the US Constitution, or at the very least, the presumed theories behind it. I admit no such thing; the whole thing starts on the wrong foot, coming out of the Enlightenment. By the same token, I have no interest in presuming to correct those who transgress such Enlightenment ideals. When some malignant, odious arrogant law officer is way out of bounds, I suffer no compulsion to help him find a better understanding by seeking an opportunity to put him in his place. This puts me at odds with virtually the entire Liberty Movement.

My service in the Realm of the Spirit (AKA Kingdom of God) puts that mission above all other concerns. There is neither a presumption of obsequious bowing nor truculent resistance, nor anything in between. All my responses are opportunistic for Christ. Whatever best matches the needs of the mission at hand is what I’ll do. I’ve already discussed how that could result in summary slaughter of some official, in the case of protecting a child from the soul-twisting exercise of government “protection,” however unlikely that may be. At other times it would appear I bow the servile knee to some walking doughnut bag wearing a badge.

Much as I would like to ensure first their relationship with Christ, it’s not always an option. Indeed, I am often compelled to remind many American Christians we are not gospel automatons, and the notion we have to preach a sermon to every warm body we pass is a fleshly delusion of Satan designed to destroy the gospel. God is not a stone statue who always wants precisely the same thing in every encounter, but lives and breathes and sometimes moves in our spirits to simply act the gospel wordlessly. In such circumstances, all the other issues really don’t matter. My life and honor also don’t count for much.

What matters is the calling and mission of God, and we can’t pretend a nickle-bag of Christ is all the understanding we need. This is all or nothing, and no one of us, nor all of us together, can hope to predict with any degree of certainty what God will demand of us in the next few minutes. As surely as we understand God does not use cookie cutters in mass producing an army of soul-clones with all one mission and method for shining His light of revelation, so we are not all called to share the gospel with every human we meet. Sometimes you have to defend whatever your mission is. While I find the notion of having to use force repulsive, my conscience is clear when I consider the possibility of it. That said, the likelihood is tiny, since God tends to protect His mission Himself. That’s the whole point of Noah: If you live right, God is pleased to prevent most trouble and allow only selected trials as your primary witness of His power in you.

So when responding to some dink, who probably really needs and deserves to have his teeth kicked down his throat, his problem is not my problem. If he wants to be an ass, what’s it to me? I have more important things to worry about. The primary victory is not in fixing his problem, but by coming away unaffected.

Flu Vaccine Noise Still Loud

The flu vaccine noise is very high today. On the Establishment side is the continuing hysteria about the so-far wimpy flu threat, along with the calm professional assurance you really need to get that shot. It’s funny how it seems no part of the official media sources even discuss the possibility folks might not want it. Absolutely none of them would dare to mention the track record of flu vaccines from the very start has been really bad, and that all vaccines in general are considered questionable at best. That’s because all the voices are bought and paid for, shills for Big Pharma.

On the other side is the ratcheting hysteria over policies and methods of forced inoculations. It won’t be uniform no matter what happens. Even a federal declaration of martial law will be unevenly enforced at best. Some states would officially say “no” right away, and that sentiment seems to be growing right now. Even within states suffering from brain dead suicidal tyrants, enforcement will fail in some areas simply because pockets of effective armed resistance are sure to arise. I suppose we can take bets on how many dead cops and troops it will take before government reconsider such evil policy. What we cannot take bets on is whether there will be any dead cops or troops, because that is certain.

Speaking of hysteria and troops, there’s a patch of noise over at Prison Planet. Most of the time we can safely dismiss their stuff as hyperbole, since Alex Jones is pure huckster who only happens to occasionally say something useful about resisting government. That’s because he refuses to connect such tyranny alerts with the real source. I won’t say he’s a shill for some propaganda agency, but he’s a devoted slave to profits, and only by accident a servant of truth. That is, he’ll do his best to use truth as a means to profit, but won’t share facts unpopular with the supposed gun-slingers who pay his bills. Still, what his associate Paul Watson writes is really only a wrap-up of stories already released in other places. It’s up to you if this connects real dots or just coincidence.

I find myself unable to be sanguine about the use of troops for domestic peace keeping. Let’s put this in context. I’ve already stated repeatedly I find the entire American Experiment unbiblical from the beginning. Further, while I dearly love the people in this country, I love them in other countries, too. My loyalty is to Christ, and no human government can claim my loyalty. What they can expect is my effort to remain at peace with all men on God’s terms, which is without question better terms than any human can devise. To the degree that human government agrees with God’s Word, things are cool. Insofar as they do not, I reject their claim on my obedience. Without a doubt this will someday cost me a great deal, and may bring me death. That’s not my concern, since God is the owner. I’ll obey Him. When human government has done all it can to me, I still have to stand before God. So whether troops as cops is unconstitutional means little to me. They are, but that’s not the point. What matters most is we cannot trust them to uphold the Constitution to which they are sworn. They will do as they are told, which means violence against you and I when so ordered. I don’t trust them.

So while they are our family members, they are still locked under their command structure. In other words, they are already the enemy, because government decided long ago we were the enemy. It’s just a matter of time and circumstance showing us at what point this becomes obvious. That decision was not fully conscious, nor deliberate across the board, but you can be sure everyone in government “service” has long since ceased thinking of themselves as part of the people they govern. They are a class apart, and that has been so woven into the fabric of government, it’s just the basic assumption of all operations.

So, while the noise level, about flu vaccine in particular, remains pretty high, I have to wonder if the vast majority will simply not hear. Most who proclaim a readiness to resist are only making noise, themselves. To the degree possible, this whole thing is going to be slipped in place without any sudden changes. The presence of troops doing police duties in many places already, “just for practice,” does indicate the high likelihood those locales will see them very regularly very soon. All that blather about preparing for emergencies should terrorists attack? Don’t forget, the Department of Homeland Defense is on record saying anyone who voices doubts about federal policy is probably a terrorist.

The Sum of Our Worst Nightmares

First of all, having served in the military, and worked in government bureaucracies at several levels, I have no trouble at all believing the government is loaded with people who would think nothing of killing most of us — right now. Having served as a policeman, I have no trouble believing way too many policemen would willingly carry out a round up of ordinary folks who simply don’t agree with government policies.

This flu and vaccine business is not just a US problem. The folks running this scheme don’t know any borders or boundaries. You can call them what you want, but certain seminal documents they have written indicate such things as their belief the world would be a better place if human population was reduced to 500,000. They say this in several places, with several different signatures, in places indicating it is the consensus of a great many global elite. So what is their track record so far?

In Canada, it appears this preventive medical treatment is being used to wipe out one native tribe. You should read that story. Canadian natives are not permitted to say “no” to any medical treatment ordered by the national health service. So they can either sicken and die from the medication or be arrested and/or driven off their land by the government. How nice.

Not gonna happen here? Can you say FEMA Camp for resisting the flu shot? But, they don’t just up and grab people here in the US! Ask Zeitoun. When the federal government gets involved, you are the enemy.

The more stuff like this keeps happening, the more I tend to believe wild reports the flu vaccine will actually be an injection of deadly virus itself.

Net Gain of Freedom

Now here’s an idea: Autonet. This, along with a few similar projects around the Net these days, is past due, in my estimation.

While the weakest link is probably coming up with autonomous access to the wider global network, I am told by those who know this is not as hard as it sounds. I suppose it simply means it’s over my head. Still, I’d love to see this sort of thing take off. This coming payday, we expect to get a good wifi router. Should there be some request for it, we’ll share the signal with some neighbors. That’s after we switch to cable, since DSL probably can’t really carry it.

But having a good router should put us in shape to take advantage of whatever comes out this movement. It’s time to relieve the phone companies of the burden of having to care for all those customers.

Denounce Me — I’m Running Windows

This old HP Pavilion 542x was built from cheap parts. The motherboard alone would tell you that: Trigem Imperial. Yeah, the thing is junk, but it’s been running fine since we bought it new. Well, as fine as WinXP Home is going to run. Even after I doubled the RAM to 512MB, the service packs and the AV made it bog down. Way down.

The problem is, Linux ran no better. The few light distros I tried were unable to communicate fully with the hardware. The later distros all ran slower than XP. In fact, you could say there is not a single Linux distro with a full set of drivers for this piece of junk, since nothing has been done to accommodate the way the BIOS communicates temperature info on the CPU. It’s one thing to say the BIOS is out of spec for ACPI — it is — but the developers have steadfastly refused to create something which would correct the issue. So, in essence, the Linux community can’t be bothered to accommodate this hardware. That’s fine. You can’t do everything.

But XP won’t work, either. So I tried Win2K — I had one unused license here. It was a trick finding drivers that would work, since HP refuses to make them for anything except XP Home. But because this board was so popular with junk manufacturers, it turns out others made drivers which worked well enough, better than the Linux ones, anyway.

Win2K recongized the RealTek 8189 ethernet stuff, and Intel’s whole chipset driver for i845 fixed everything on the board except the Lucent Winmodem and the audio. I disabled the Winmodem, and tested a lot of stuff before I found the SoundMax package was the only audio driver set which didn’t cause a spontaneous reboot somewhere short of full installation. Why a package can’t even copy files to the right place without crashing the system is beyond me. Anyway, it all works, and is blazing fast even with AV.

The things we have to do to get use of some hardware…
