Homelessness (Photo credit: Todd Huffman)

The news today has announced the fact that the billionaire mayor of New York Has 50,000 people sleeping on the streets each night since being elected.Thats far more than before.The food stamp program is stretched to its limits now and costing over 1.5billion dollars.The homes in NewYork state are going up for sale as a  result of economy and flight to states that still respect the Constittuion of The United States.The biggest problem is thenfact that there is no manual or place that many people could go and either learn the art of survival.Perhaps the homeless person would even find how to reboard the now derailed life they once had.
Each night that these folks spend on the street with no-one caring for them.Each night there is a chance that they will become a victim of a terrible crime.The statistics are quite clear that the homeless person is more likely to become a victim of a crime than commit anything more than just vagrancy.Vagrancy:the crime of not belonging anywhere that society cant see and hate you for not reminding them that they could be there at any time themselves.The folks who look at the downtrodden,believing it only can happen to "those people".!!
The refernce would provide a place to find specific information on how to find shelter,food,medical help,whatever they would need in the place they travel to.the reference might be divided into states,cities,Federal and stae Burueas ,Charities that assist,shelters that are rated by safety and availability.
I would also add to this reference a lot of things to make the best of natures abundant resources.I read a while ago about a family that found mushrooms growing in the woods they camped in.The Asian family thought the mushrooms were like those in their homeland.The poison in the Mushrooms killed them all.
The Information in the reference would contain pictures,information on finding,testing,and preparing it to use.
How to build a shelter,How to handle social situations the street person faces.The reference would be upgraded weekly to include income/job places.Shower facilities,soup kitchens.Clothing places for barter.
The reference library could be reached from any smartfone or computer.Wifi is free in most places and those places would not find a person that was blending in the crowd.Many disenfranchised persons are smart enough to hang onto their electronics or use a library.Those who are alcoholics,drug addicts or mentally afflicted.The dark side of the homeless persons are those that prey on the helpless and like being homeless.
They live under the radar and use their homelessness to commit terrible things on newbies that just hit the streets.The law inforcement in many places add to this problem sometimes brutalizing those that are already
in a world of trouble.Who do you call when a cop beats you up with a club?The homeless can not usualy carry anything to protect themselves.being homeless,armed and without any representation in an invitation for
"Resonable Cause".The usual routing being ask for ID.No Id,Run the name and social security,address,etc.
A disarmed person living on the streets are as vulnerable as if the lived in the woods.The coyotes are with
4 and 2 legged variety.The reference would clue anyone into how to stay out of the spotlight for trouble.
The centralized library would serve different regions as it grew and would ask for contributions of information
from those both in the system and out of the sytem.The sites like the HOBO.com and other places joined together would serve to unite the resources of many worlds.
It might even create a foundation for those who want better for themselves and their families to regain a foothold on the lives they still dream of.
The dark side followers that prey on others would also have a place to have their pictures shown and short writeups of their nefarious natures.
The final article would be a place to show those who have come up lost  in a world that can destroy anyone that is not determined to over come anything they negative incounter.councelors would have a place to
work on the most lost in our society.They now live in a world those counselors would have to live in as street folks do.They could never understand the emotions and isolation till they live it.Challenge to the High end
counselors:leave all your credit cards fancy clothes,bmw or whatever,and take a bus to the biggest city you can.Then trade your nice clothes to a salvation army store.leave your fone home.buy a cheap used lapptop and a new prepaid fone.(no contacts for a month).You must become lost to all those that knew you.If you were
broke,those friends would leave you anyway after awhile.Then start to learn where to sleep,eat and live as you grow more more desheveled.The look will take about 2weeks and the clothes will too.
This is a pseudo reality,this will be purely an experiment for you counselor as you know that a warn home and a life still awaits you,back there....If it were real in your life,that would never be certain...Good luck councelor,may your experiment become an awakening of the world of the fallen and forgotten,the shunned and forsaken by all but God.
I am going to start that website in the next few weeks to get this idea rolling.I am going to have to learn how to manually link sites together.It is a worthy project.any Ideas would be wonderfully excepted

Well I am once more finding myself at the end of a Blog.Please take a moment to think of those sleeping (some with
Children )in the cold tonite.Many do not even have blankets for their children.If you can donate or lend a hand ,Please do so and God bless.

Veterans Not Spit on,Just Dumped into Homelessnes

English: Homeless veteran in New York (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

There is so much on Homelessness in this country.Most articles are written by folks that watch from the outside and carefully look in,so as not to get to close
.
The Veterans that have returned home have always been looked as like a character out of a hollywood movie.Whether Rambo or as headcases in a mental ward.The fact that they have witnessed things that the human  mind should never see is not looked at.The fact that many soldiers are put through mentally stressful
"tests" from bootcamp to retirement or death.

A POW may be tortured till they die or simply never be recovered to their home.Even if that homecoming happens they are not the same person that left wife,hearth,Children, and home.The terrible memories of war is not anything that will ever "just go away in time".The spirit and soul will be tormented with each tossed night that ends up in the screams of a sweat,soaked nightmare.Family will be faced with a person that the government has called for their politicaly ignited duties.The duty is not explained to those sent into hell as expendable commodities.Basically a series of body counts to equate the actions of those sitting at a desk in safety.

It is my true beliefs that the Nations of the world that can send our men and women into hells should put these folks on an elite pedestal.That is,These brave souls  need the best of everything when they return.
They should be provided free housing if they wish,free medical care for anything that they have been inflicted with.Any war related injury to body,mind or soul should be free.The country that we helped in that conflict should also be held responsible for those soldiers lifetime care.

 I have heard of the very good care of some
Governmental Establishments.I also remember my friends who returned from the Vietnam Conflict??
They were ignored for years.The Agent Orange complaints went unaknowledged till most of those Vets died
of the results.Iguess that saved millions on their "So called"unwarranted complaints.That should never happen again....Till you ask a Desert storm returnee about their mysterious ailments.Go ahead and ask...

Why not make the returning soldiers duties worth what they have surrendered to this country.You will find it to be the only thing that uniformed spirit has surrendered.The life that does not return has not surrendered
their flag,has not surrendered their country or their beliefs in the values they hold in their hearts worth their
future.

No soldier should ever be wondering with nowhere,no-one and lost in the garbage heaps of hopelessness.

One more note here regarding the female soldiers in service to our country.While they are obviously female with different abilities then men due to Physical and biological uniqueness.They are everybit
as well equipt to be whatever THEY chose to be.Most people Know or come to know the strengths they have.The high rape while in uniform by their own countrymen is disgraceful and is a note that they to have re that should never even exist.This is an enemy within the country as much as any terrorist threat.

We truly need to raise the bar on the greatest group of Human Beings to ever fight for those they don't even know.They should never have to be left behind as homeless.Their families should have the best opportunities avalaible in the world.They have given all and we should cut the nonsensible grants to studying the sexlife of a fruitfly  ETC.and directing it to our folks in the military.....Unless you really believe fruitflies etc.are more important than those guarding your rears.

Those who would die in conflicts,wars,and police actions...to protect those who can not or will not protect themselves...They believe in it or they would not be in uniform.

They would not be flying the American flag as those from the beginning have proudly done..


Thats all for now,Keep the faith and support those of us that is far from loved ones as you read this.
there are many organizations that make our troops more comfortable and really help to raise the Moral in those desolated places so far away.God bless them all in their safe returns to us back home.

This upsets me so much that I forgot to sign it,SOOOO here goes

Is the Internet a Little More Sensitive to Our Input Lately

OUR FREEDOMS AND RIGHTS - NARA - 516307 (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

"Wikipedia censored" (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

English: A map showing the level of Internet censorship by country throughout the world. Based on Wikipedia:Internet censorship by country and Wikipedia:Censorship by country. (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

I have noticed that when I am trying to write an article that is a little bit sensitive I have problems staying online and get to restart my blogs at the line that it drops at.The computer will say that I am still on line but a problem is indicated on the screen.Could we too be censored in the good OLE USA?Does the providers and browsers do a little watching over our shoulder to see if they agree with our ideas of life?I have written
about the censorship in other countries of the world.I would hate to see that happen in this country.
Now take a moment and think of whats happening here in the USA.if you live in the states that like to control your activities.the states that feel  a yen to save us from ourselves are the Places that are the most oppressive with any freedoms.Examples of these rules/Laws are helmet laws,Seat belt laws,Bicycle laws,sidewalk use by skates/skateboards,Gun bans,ecological overkill bills that feed the political machine and kills commerce,
or how bout the law that puts taxes on out of state workers,The INTERNET is just a little more control on people that really don't have need to be further monitored by desk generals.

Our lives are monitored as never before in history.Machines flying overhead with instant death on board.
if you travel then there's a paper trail that follows you.if you use a credit card,a paper and data trail follows.
Whether by land or by sea the monitoring is non stop.when you write an E-Mail to gramma or a personal letter to your loved one there's always someone or something that is watching you.If you think this is the ranting of a paranoid individual,then you are allowed a uninformed opinion.I invite you to download every
anti-spying anti tracking anti monitoring add ons you can find.barring the fact that many browsers like to keep tabs on you for sales and directing you to their advertisers sites.See how well the expensive PC now works to
get you on the net.The trackers will stop you dead after awhile out of shear frustration to your actions.
the INTERNET is far from free anywhere there is society and its watchers.

WE THE PEOPLE of the world are the last to know the people or machines that watch our common goings on.I personally have warned the watching things(people or machines) that they will fall into a deep and non recoverable comma or whatever.They will succumb to extreme effects  of the boredom due to the exiting life I live.

 I do urge you to experiment with the anti-Phishing,tracking,spying,ETC.add ons to limit the Sopa type monitoring of our freedoms.

Yes there is people who do need monitoring in this world,People who apparently
are using the net to plan stupid and destructive activities.There is always that element in "man kinds"domain.

Killers_agents @Rocketmail.com is such a group of morons.using the net to Extort ,blackmail and terrorize people for money.

Try  some experiments and see how much you hear from the complaining factions that will insist on monitoring your life.

Till we meet again on this material/virtual pane,Keep the faith and keep working for the goals of freedom.

Its much easier to lose your freedom than regain it when its allowed to be taken away.ask any former iron curtain countries resident.or any former POW orNazi concentration camp survivor.You might ask any Native American that could still be living free and hunting tatonka.(Buffalo/Bison).What the Reservation life did for their culture from about 1880 or so...Make sure you look into their eyes when they begin to recall that dark time.

RJP
P.S.
This was written a while back in time,Way before  before the Russians invaded and claimed Crimea.Way before Edward Snowden freedom of speech,was censored from speaking freely from his exile in Russia.This world is becoming more and more Smoke and mirrors to those of us just trying to actually find solutions to our world.

Find the reason inner cities become War zones and work your way to the political world.The so called reasons for the violence remains the very same...Fear,Greed,and hatred.
The Biosphere Earth really does not have problems till so called Mans,Civilization as we know it arrives.

 .We have the power to overcome our problems if we work together...We need to learn  to extend a right hand as the old world warriors did when meeting another warrior.
The reason for this custom was because most people are right handed and it very difficult to pitch a spear or wield a sword,with the left hand.Your right hand shaking the other warriors hand met you wouldn't kill him/her.There were female warriors even though this world thanked them by killing them when they succeeded in winning.NOTE :Joan Of Ark,Thanx :)

The spring weather is fast approaching and we are all dreaming of a warm spring day that will not require a coat.Many of us are dreaming of the wonderful places we would just love to go.A warm place to sit on the beach at sunset with a cool glass of"lemonaide" and a lovely lady nearby getting a tan in the evening sunset.The sun slowly sinking into the sea as the waves rythmicaly roll on the shore.Ahhhh,the dreams of the average man or woman.Then we wake up and paradise is once more lost to reality
.
Have you ever wondered what that same day is for a politician.yeah I know...the debates and schedules with everyone and their mommas calling you about the problems in bugtussel USA.The white hair and rapid aging
in less than 4years.being the office of this powerful person  does has its problems.
 
I was also reading about the perks of political office.Just the other night as one Senator attempted to rally his
 supporters The Whitehouse was serving Lobster Thermador and garlic potatoes,Among other things.
Most politicians travel on extensive tours all over the world and eat dinners such as the lobster meal.The same dinner for joe citizen type  folks were eating Macaroni and instant cheese.prehaps with only a little ketchup on it for lack of cheese or sauce.

Many politicians send out panhandlings for funds to fuel their goals and limo's.
while the man on the street would get arrested for panhandling to buy a cheap hamburger for himself or his wife and child.

Politicians forget the people that are sleeping under a bridge and eating in soup kitchens.

Did you know that many of the so called humanity organizations were actually rather progressive money making institutions.I accompanied a disabled person who has lived on 700dollars a month disability.
This person has their own home,such as it is.It is a 80year old home that has many repairs needed.They were told that An organization called the habitant for humanity hailed as a wonder by former president Jimmy Carter.We walked in and waited our turn to speak with a rep.We were taken into an office and sat in front of a desk with a computer on it.The lady ask how much my friend made in wages and what she could put down.We were told with a condascending tone that poor people under the 14000dollar a year was not elidgable and that they were a for profit organization that was protected.A 400hour sweat equity would also be required for the addition to payment. as well as EZ payments for years.Homeless people need not apply as they had not addressETC.

My second example of the sideways Helping organizations is this:I also went with a person into the red cross
donation center.They provide people with donated things to make life better and tide you over.We hear about The wonderful deeds of the Red cross workers all over the world.I have given to them in the past myself.I was amazed that the person asking for help was required to show an envelope with a current date on it and an active drivers license.I asked if I was homeless could they still help me out.The lady behind the desk snarled the following.I guess that that person had better find another organization because we wont help them.I guess it would be different if that homeless person was in another country with those donated American Dollars.

I have told friends about this and they find it hard to believe till a bit of homework is done.

The katrina victims,and N.J. &Long Island folks lost all their belongings,were homeless and many had no ID due to totally losing everything they owned.The tornado in Missouri.The questions could go on and on,with the same questions asked.Do the same standards for help, stand for all people requiring my donated funds for help stand in other countries as well as ours?For example:haiti has had people helping rebuild that island for  how many generations?countries over seas have been existing on our "donations"for how many years?

Do soldiers over seas require a local address and current ID?Does the countries needing assistance have to sit down with a worker when thier skeletal bodies walk for a day to get help and go through a financial examination?Did the Ethiopians die of starvation a few years back when religious organizations had them on
the television with their starving babies.

It is not surprising that we see the refugees in camps that are starving,and living in filthy shacks.I never knew the key to the getting help was a couple pieces of Identification to reasure the bureaucrat behind the desk.They go home to comfort after a nice hot home cooked meal.

I have lived as a homeless person during the last recession.I have eaten in soup kitchens where you were only allowed to choose a single dessert and 2 breads.the tables are loaded with baked goods and bread.
After everyone picks up the alloted pitence,the preacher says,"ok now grab what you want.The priveledged
people have already grabbed everything but the bread.Man can not live on bread alone...but it is whats left over after the special favored folk pick it over.Heres the topper,After the 15minutes of folks trying to plan what wont spoil or mold,a man picks up the donated food and puts it in his borrowed shopping cart to feed his hogs and goats.Should it not be given to old age homes to suppliment their crappy and degraded existance.Yeah its old,but with the help of a microwave its as good as new...do the animals really need the
food???

Where do the donations go that you give????Is your generousity being dumped down a bureaucratic sinkhole.

I was flabbergastid during my time in the donated society.I was warned not to stay in the local flophouse the social welfare dept. ran or I would be robbed by the other folks in the place.I was warned that no one would recover any stolen articles because of the status of those sleeping there.My social worker liked me and knew that I was not conning her about my life.She left there to go back to college for another level of social work.I wish her well..she hadnt sold her soul yet.

I really believe the organizations that call themselves  benevelent are few.Most are sent up to be benefitial
to only a few and under very limited guidelines at best.I will give the Catholic Organizations a pat on the back.Although I am not of that religion,I found a lot of help from church organizations more so than the conventional places.The soup kitchens are far better run and disciplined than others

Please do not be afraid of the church soup kitchens.They are clean and well run for the most part.The folks eating there are not freeloaders,bums or whatever the imagination can dump on them.many are old,alone and just hoping to eat better than if they tried to cook a dinner only to eat it alone.

Soup kitchen Diners are  people that have come from all walks of life.Engineers that have been hurt,Nurses that are out of work.I remember eating dinner with an ex para medic that was recovering from a back injury.He said he didnt recieve enough money from disability to get by.His family had left him while he was recovering
.
You can believe that you really get to know your friends when the chips are down.
I challenge you to just dress in your everyday casual clothing and finding a soup kitchen.The food is good and you may find a qualified person looking for that job that you just cant find anyone for...The Homeless
are not elidgable for workforce or anything else that would put you and them together.But a soup kitchen is a unique opportunity to perhaps solve two situations with one fairly good meal and everyday folks to share a meal after prayers together.

If you feel that you are mooching a meal or out of place there,You can always donate after the meal and then it will not be as tough on you.If you find a new worker that turns out to be a genius at his/her job,so much the better.You get a bargain and life is a continual gamble at best..

Thats all for now,and as my favorite journalist,Paul Harvey used to say,and thats the rest of the story.(for now anyway).

RJP
Please Note the Lady in one of these Photos is our current first lady working in a community soup kitchen.
whether for a photo op or because her heart is truly pure.She is there and helping.The creator Knows all our hearts and is the only one to judge us.I Think she was there because she truly knows where her heart is.
Thank You for giving those at the bottom of the ladder hope and for not making us feel we need to look up from a kneeling position  at someone who cares.
