Three Days: How I Discovered the Psy-Ops Known as Gangstalking – by David Matthew Strunk

Welcome back readers,

To those who read parts 1 and 2 of my essay To Those Interested in the Gangstalking of a Targeted Individual you know that I mentioned being surrounded in a grocery store by street-gang members, intent on kidnapping and murdering me, and that I barely escaped with my life, and that I hinted that it would be the subject of my next piece. But, I sat down to write it and realized I haven’t supplied enough backstory as a foundation. To properly put in perspective how I came to know about gangstalking, I’ve decided to write the story of the events that happened over a three-day period that led to my discovery of what gangstalking is.

In my first two editions I wrote about the details of my first and last incidents of being targeted by gangstalkers. The last, or latest, incident of gangstalking I wrote about is what is in part 1. To clarify, it wasn’t the actual latest incident, but it was the last incident before the murder in November 2016 that led to my arrest and 48-year sentence. The murder was itself an act of gangstalking, in which I was made into a puppet and controlled by the gangstalkers in what in hindsight was a scripted, real-life horror-movie, direct and produced by the gangstalkers.

The next two and a half years I spent in Larimer County Jail was the most intense period of my targeting by the gangstalkers. I was gangstalked on a daily basis and had no way to get away from my stalkers, who microwaved me so badly with their Directed-Energy Weapons that they caused permanent brain damage, as my intelligence seems to have remained intact, but my memory and the recall function of my brain has been severely damaged. It was a nightmare! During this period is when a three-day series of events led to me obtaining a book that finally gave a label to this freakish psychological black-ops commonly referred to by the slang-term “gangstalking”.

My second publication, part 2 of To Those Interested in the Gangstalking of a Targeted Individual was actually describing the first incident I can remember of me being gangstalked. Part 1, was the story of how I was kept awake for several days by the gangstalkers’ hidden remote mind-manipulation tools until I turned myself in to the ER of a local hospital, simply to discover why I couldn’t sleep, at which point I was involuntarily committed to a mental hospital miles away and secretly imprisoned by agents posing as hospital orderlies. After eating a sandwich tainted by some kind of poisonous bio-agent, I spent hours vomiting and suffering dysentery, in convulsions, naked on the bathroom tiles, until I cycled down into a coma, only to wake up in the mess the next day. I was told nothing will be done about it and they refused to release me for another twelve hours.

The poisoning was not accidental food-poisoning, it was deliberate. Three staffers gathered around me to watch as I lay in the fetal position vomiting and shitting in terror and did absolutely nothing at all to help. Instilling a sense of helplessness in the “target” is a major component of gangstalking in general. The point of it seems to be to see how far the target can be pushed until they completely break down. This was the last gangstalking incident some time in October 2016 before I got the apartment in November that, unknown to me, was the prearranged staging-area for the murder, cooked up by the gangstalkers.

The first gangstalking incident I can remember was in the summer of 2004 when the Frey Effect was used on me for the first time. The Frey Effect is a scientific term to refer to the act of causing a person to hear voices by aiming a microwave device at them and transmitting audio via a microwave beam carrying an RF signal. If you can imagine the transmitting power of a modern cellphone being multiplied a hundred times over and directed at your skull from a distance, you get the idea. Microwaves affect water the most, and the body is about 94% water, so your skin in effect becomes the receiver for a radio signal containing audio transmitted on a microwave beam. The audio is piggy-backed on a microwave transmission so that it transmits through the air silently, but upon hitting the human target the person hears it as sound.

There is a fluid-sack behind the eardrum that controls sense of balance in a human. The same nerves that connect to the eardrum also connects to this fluid-sack and the microwaves affect it. During the first Desert Storm war under President George Herbert Walker Bush, the US Army used the Frey Effect to say: “This is Allah, your God! Put down your arms and surrender to the Infidel! I command you!” So many of them peacefully surrendered that they ran out of busses to transport them to the P.O.W. facility! Many people know about the mass-surrender, but most people do not know about the Frey Effect. Gangstalkers depend on it as a tool against their target because, if the target reports it to authorities, they are generally labeled as schizophrenic and sent to a mental ward, which is beneficial to the perpetrators because they want to damage the credibility of the targeted individual so that they won’t be believed when they report even more heinous acts done to them by the gangstalkers.

Since coming to prison, I’ve met and befriended about a dozen legitimate Targeted Individuals. A targeted individual, or TI for short, is the most common definition of a victim of gangstalking. I say legitimate T.I.s because gangstalking has become a common enough subject on conspiracy-theory websites that a lot of people now imagine themselves to be a targeted individual if they experience one or two of the symptoms described on these various sites. Furthermore, a lot of chronic meth users imagine themselves to be T.I.s because of the paranoia and auditory hallucinations that the drug causes. The perpetrators of gangstalking know this and seem to prefer targeting meth users. The overarching point of gangstalking, beyond total destruction of the target’s life in every sense of the word, is to create a cover of unbelievability to it. The perpetrators want anyone and everyone whom the target reports the gangstalking to, to think it isn’t happening. They want people to think the TI is “on drugs” or is a “paranoid schizophrenic” or has other mental health issues. It is important to the perpetrators that the victim is not believed. It adds to the sense of helplessness that the TI’s experiences, the point being to literally push the target into a nervous breakdown. The various types of harassment and tortures the TI suffers at the hands of the sociopathic cowards, added to the fact that no one believes you, adds up to a sense of loneliness, helplessness, and terror that you as a non-TI can’t even imagine. The point of this is to push the target into a corner that results in permanent psychiatric hospitalization or a very long prison sentence for lashing out violently, due to the synthetically-caused insanity, like I did. This is if you don’t commit suicide first.

The CIA, who originally invented gangstalking before passing it to the FBI to use against “problem” social figures like anti-Vietnam War agitators and the Black Panthers during the tumultuous 1960s, calls the act of pushing a target to suicide or incarceration being “in play” and the “end game”. The target is labeled as “terminal”. Once selected to be a T.I., it never stops until the end-game is achieved.

My gangstalking did not stop until I made it into prison, specifically this prison, since I’m told other prisons have a continuation of it. In fact, one of the agents acting against me as a “counselor” at the county jail quit her job there and became a corrections officer and was waiting for me to get off the bus at Territorial Correctional Facility! Because they eavesdropped on conversations I had at the county jail, in which I was told by ex-cons that it was the best prison, and how I can make sure to get sent there. As the bus pulled into the parking lot at Territorial, she came up to the bus and looked into the window I sat next to and locked eyes with me. She gave me that “gotcha!” look, she was waiting for me. That is one aspect of gangstalking: the people hired to follow you around and harass you will literally change jobs to be able to keep following you around. This is intended to create a certain type of mental claustrophobia because you can’t get away from them.

The purpose of this third effort in my series on gangstalking is not to perfectly describe the phenomena, but to show you, the reader, whom I hope will continue to read all the parts in my series, how I came to discover that I was a targeted individual. Before I found out about it, I thought maybe I was experiencing some kind of Black Magick spell being done on me by witches. In a way, it is.

See, I am a solid Gen-X guy. I was born in 1968 and am currently 56 years old. There are some in my generation who never did take to computers. Call us luddites or old-fashioned or what have you, but I just never did become one of those guys who spends five or six hours a day online, like so many others do. In the late 90s/early 00s, when “internet cafes” were a big deal, I did enjoy going to a local coffee shop and ordering a latte in order to get on a computer for a couple hours. But this was before Facebook. In those days, MySpace and anonymous chatrooms were a big deal. The internet was a very different place in those days. During my web surfing, I never ran across gangstalking websites. I didn’t go online to research, I went on to play. It amused me. I also liked shopping on eBay for rare books and vinyl records because, if you like something enough to buy it, a lot of times you could email the seller and a friendship can develop. After all, it takes a certain kind of person to want to get someone to send you a cassette copy of The Decline of Western Civilization, Vol II because you can’t afford the $150 double-LP version. The person actually does it for you and you find out it’s a purple-mohawked punk rocker couple who bought their first house out in the sticks in Redneck country, Georgia. The internet was just a lot more fun and innocent in those days before Twitter.

So the thing is, I stopped being online around the time that gangstalking became a well known thing, in the 2010s. It really started to be a thing around 2011 or 2012, and that’s when I started to notice it the most. Some time between 2014 and 2015 I was asked by a Mason if I wanted to join the Freemasons as an apprentice and I said “no” because I had a dream about it in which I said “no”, so I thought that was the answer I was meant to give them. It was after that when the gangstalking really became pronounced and… it’s just so bizarre.

I think the occult nature of the Masons goes hand-hand-hand with the types of things gangstalking does to a person. In fact, there is a spiritual aspect to gangstalking. To find out more about it, I would suggest reading any of the Carlos Castaneda books, beginning with his second or third book, and on to the latest. (Don’t bother with his first book, which doesn’t talk much about gangstalking.) In the Castaneda books it is simply called “stalking” and is described as a form of sorcery done to an enemy to cause them to become trapped into a situation that will cause them to get killed without ever actually raising a hand to them. It’s a form of manipulation intended to accelerate negative karma, like a “spiritual judo” or a way to get your enemy to step into a kind of “spiritual quicksand” that manifests itself in reality.

Carlos Castaneda teaches sorcery divided into two paths: Stalking and Dreaming. The act of “dreaming” is just stalking that you do while asleep. You can enter bodily into another person’s dreams at night and do much harm to an enemy. This is another thing they did to me, they fucked with my dreams, beginning in 2017, when I spent the next two and a half years in Larimer County Jail, fighting my case. But, the difference between the Castaneda methods and modern-day gangstalking is technology.

There is some kind of computer-assisted device that can broadcast video images into your mind during the deep REM cycles of dreaming and also use reverse remote-viewing. People trained as “dream warriors” can use a version of remote-viewing to enter a victim’s dreams and fuck around. It’s the broadcasting version of remote-viewing.

I will not take the time to explain remote-viewing here, there is plenty of information about it on the net that you can “Google”. However, I think it’s important to write these articles and, in general, read books about gangstalking because there is a lot of disinformation about it online. Whenever a legitimate website pops up that gives real and genuine information about gangstalking, it’s not up for long before it gets either destroyed or compromised with disinformation by the very people who are perpetrating it, whether it be the CIA, FBI, NSA or another three lettered organization. The raven1.net website used to be the #1 most informative website on the subject, and I’ve been told it doesn’t exist anymore. Many websites will tell you that gangstalking doesn’t exist at all and that it is a made-up “fake news” conspiracy-theory invented by tinfoil-hat conspiracy-nut websites of the sort that promote things like flat-earth theories. Let me ask you this: What do I have to gain? My pamphlets are free and all that telling my story does is expose me to more potential harassment. I just want to help and perhaps be helped some day, and to reach out to others like me.

I have also provided my publisher with proof in the form of photos of some of the devices used in a typical gangstalking scenario, microwave-based handheld weapons that can see and hear through walls and also broadcast hidden audio using

the Frey Effect. As I mentioned earlier, this weapon can in fact even cook you with its microwaves, through walls and from a distance. I have instructed my publisher to insert photos of the device here in the pamphlet for you to view. As you can see, a cop is holding the long-barreled laser-rifle version in one photo, and in the other photos, a handheld pistol version with a mini-microwave dish on the barrel, demonstrated by another cop, made by the Raytheon company, with blueprints provided. Don’t believe me? Look it up! How people can look at these photos of the devices and the name of the company who made them and still not believe is beyond my comprehension. I believe that getting people, the status quo, the general public, to believe gangstalking is real is step-1 to being able to fight it. How can we solve a problem if we are in denial about it?

Having said all that, I want to tell you a sequence of events that happened over a period of three days that led me to discover what gangstalking is, and how I discovered that I am a Targeted Individual. Whether you want to call it God or The Universe or what have you, a power greater than myself and above all that I know wanted to communicate this to me with a certain kind of serendipity. I am either ensconced in irony or mired in it, depending on your point of view. But, however you view it, the fact is I had no idea what gangstalking is until a series of events happened to me over the course of three days in Larimer County Jail. Before that, I alternated between thinking that DEA agents were using some kind of weird high-tech surveillance gadgets to mess with me, because they were already watching a Mexican Cartel-connected drug dealer who crossed paths with me, putting me on their radar, or that actual witches were doing black magick spells on me. This is because that was all I had in my limited vocabulary at the time to explain the bizarre things happening to me.

DAY ONE

Let’s call it a Tuesday in 2017. I don’t remember the month. In fact, I’m not even sure it was 2017, it could’ve been 2018. I’m also not positive that it was a Tuesday, but for the sake of this story, let’s just say it was a Tuesday in 2017.

A man comes into my cellblock in Larimer County Jail around lunchtime in a wheelchair. Me and a friend are located in the dayroom (the common area, also called the TV room) on Army-surplus cots, because all the cells are full. As usual, when a new guy enters our living space, me and my buddy want to know what his story is, and an impromptu talk-session follows.

The man tells us he is in jail for theft. He was going into Home Depots, getting the largest spools of copper wire he could find, loading up his shopping cart with them, and simply walking out of the store. He was able to do this without triggering the shoplifting alarm at the door by using a set of wire-snippers to cut the tag off, which contains a magnetic strip that triggers the alarm, and then walk out of the store undetected. He would then take the copper wire to a metal scrapyard and sell it for hundreds of dollars. A real crackhead style of crime, but it worked, for awhile. Eventually, the law of averages caught up with him and one day he was caught. He ended up in a fistfight with an employee who followed him out to his truck to retrieve the stolen copper wire, and the cops were called. A few hours later he’s on the cot next to mine in jail, telling me the following story:

He explained that he is in a wheelchair because he got creamed by a woman in a minivan. He said he’s a jogger and jogged the same route every day near his apartment. He said he was far enough off of the side of the road that the woman must’ve hit him on purpose. It was a hit-and-run. He said he was able to get a description of the minivan and the license plate number and called the police. The cops were able to find and identify the driver, but she somehow talked her way out of it and no arrest was made. A report was taken, which he tried to use to file a lawsuit against the driver’s insurance, but no lawyer would take the case.

A quick look at his legs corroborated his story. He had very muscular legs, the legs of a jogger, but with horrible scarring where he was hit by the vehicle. It baffled me that someone could be injured so badly in a hit-and-run and the driver is identified, but not arrested, followed by attorneys not wanting to touch the obvious open-and-shut moneymaker of a civil-case. But, this is the earmark of gangstalking: Some of the people following you around and harassing you are agents connected to one of the alphabet agencies, because only a CIA or FBI agent could get away with such a blatant crime like a hit-and-run with no arrest and with so many lawyers not wanting to take the case.

As the storytelling progressed, he began to tell us of his experience with “hearing voices”as the result of the Frey Effect, using the kind of microwave gadgets pictured in this publication. He said he was dating the ex-wife of a high-ranking member of an outlaw motorcycle club in Colorado. This is a biker gang much like the Hell’s Angels. I’m not saying their name here because they are a very violent club and they are very serious about people not talking about them.

So, he is dating this woman who is “Property of” this biker gang. They get in an argument. The argument ends with him telling her, “You know what? I’m gonna go find me a woman who is not crazy and who makes some damned sense!” And she replied, “You are gonna regret saying that to me.” A few days go by and he is alone at a motel in Fort Collins, infamous locally as being sort of a hangout for Cartel-types and loose women. Drugs, prostitution, etc. He’s watching TV when all of a sudden a “voice” starts commenting on the show he’s watching. He changes the channel, but the voice persists. The voice is negative, making fun of him and ridiculing his choice of TV shows. Finally he turns off the TV, but the voices continue, reciting everything that he does, as he does it, in real time to let him know they are watching his every move.

Thinking he got a room with hidden cameras installed, perhaps a room intended for a DEA drug bust and loaded with police surveillance equipment, he turned off all of the lights and drew the curtains closed, thinking if it pitch black in the room the camera can’t see him. Now in the dark, he finds his cell phone battery is dead and decides to plug it into the wall outlet with the charger. Unable to see anything, he gets on his hands and knees and crawls around the baseboard at the bottom of the walls, seeking the outlet by feeling the walls, when the voice came back and said, “The plug you are looking for is two inches up and four inches to the left”. He followed the directions of the “voice” and found trhe plug, proving to him that they can see him even in the dark.

It drove him so crazy that he cried, and the voices clowned him about it. “Why are you crying? Are you scared, you little bitch-ass punk?”, and so on. Relentless with put-downs. Finally, he couldn’t stand it another minute and decided to abandon the room altogether. He turned the lights back on, gathered all of his clothes into a basket and walked outside, across the street to a coin-op laundry. Thinking he was safe now, he got quarters ready to wash his clothes. That’s when “the voices” came back, telling him step-by-step how to do his laundry, again poking fun at him, telling him “Separate your whites from your colors, dumbass!”.

A few weeks later after the motel incident, he’s made up with the girlfriend and they are back together. She takes him to a secret hideout to fool around, a camper up in the mountains on a dirt road. They are in bed fooling around when all of a sudden, members of the aforementioned 1%er outlaw biker club surrounded the camper and start baning on the walls, telling to come out to have his ass kicked. He looks out the window and counts five of them, all wearing their colors. He decides if he’s gonna die, he’s gonna die “with his boots on”, so to speak. He grabs a ball peen hammer in one hand, a hatchet in the other, and jumps out of the trailer, yelling, “Come on! Come get some! You want a fight? You’ll sure get one here! Who wants some of this?!” as he swings the hammer and hatchet at them.

So, then the leader of the pack says, “Whoa! Calm down! There’s not gonna be any bloodshed today, but you can’t be here! That is our camper, you are on club property!” But he came with the girl in her car, and she is their “property”, which puts him in a bind. The head biker guy tells him that he’s gotta get in his pickup truck with him. The other four stay, so he calms down and gets in the truck. The biker drives him down the dirt road off of the mountain into town and offers him a glass bowl full of meth, which he refused. He then offered him a bowl of pot, which he accepted. He calmed down.

Then, the biker says, “I want you to know you are not crazy. That stuff that happened at the motel a couple weeks ago? That was real, it was us! That girl you were with came to us and complained about you, saying you yelled at her and called her crazy! She wanted revenge on you so we decided to mess with you, to teach you a lesson. Some of our guys were intelligence soldiers in Afghanistan and Desert Storm. When they came home they brought they “toys” with them. Remember that white van parked outside with the blacked-out window? That was us. We got equipment in that van that is so high-tech it can see and hear through walls. And broadcast! We get on a radio mic, and whatever we say, you hear. We use the van to keep an eye on our “working girls” in the motels, to make sure the “Johns” behave. And we mess with people if we need to. So, when your girl complained and we saw you at the motel we decided to fuck with you.”

This was the first time I found out about the microwave technology, but I didn’t know the “voices” were called the “Frey Effect” until the very next day when I heard about it on a radio show.

DAY TWO

Wednesday, a cell opened up, and me and my other buddy on the cot got moved into a cell as cellmates. I’m listening to a radio program, a talk show, and they are interviewing a guy who wrote a book about the a lot of stuff, including the exact things the guy was talking about in that motel story. Basically, the man listed most of the things that happen to a Targeted Individual during gangstalking. Every time he mentioned a new thing, I would think “That’s me! That happened to me!” He then described the scientific aspects of using microwave devices to cause a person to “hear voices”, also known as the Frey Effect. He went on to list even more advanced technologies and how they are used against “targets”.

That man’s name was Dr. John Hall, a chiropractor living in Texas. He wrote a book called Guinea Pigs: Technologies of Control. He then explained that everything he was discussing is included in his book, so I wrote down the info.

DAY THREE

Thursday, my cellmate was gone for a few hours and then comes back and tells me he had a visit with his folks. He told them all about me and how I was the best cellmates he’s had so far, because I keep him out of trouble. He was a bit of a psycho and would get in fights with people who did nothing but look at him “wrong”. Always in trouble. But I had a calming effect on him, which he reported to his mother. She was so impressed with me that she told him, “When you go back to your cell, tell your cellmate that I will go online and buy him any book he wants as a Christmas present and have it mailed to him via Amazon.com”, free of charge. I couldn’t believe my luck. Of course I immediately told him to ask his mom to get me Guinea Pigs by John Hall. I had it in my hands less than a week later and read it cover-to-cover that same day. I still have it to this very day. I consider it the “Bible of Gangstalking”, a comprehensive and complete guide.

In my next edition, I will quote entire passages from John Hall’s book, including his expert definition of the step-by-step procedure of gangstalking, who is behind it, and why. But, for now, I just think it is important to let you know how I came to the know what was happening to me in a three-day run of events that were anything but coincidences.

Corporate Magazines Still Suck – by David-Matthew Strunk

Ensuing this introduction is a letter written for Simon Wood by David-Matthew Strunk after the release of an article that Wood wrote for New York Magazine about the life and death of Aaron Bushnell. Wood had reached out to Strunk because of his brief history as a correspondent with Bushnell in order to gain information on Bushnell and subsequently decided to paint Strunk in a negative light and include it in the article.

For further context, please read:

‘Aaron Bushnell’s Self-Immolation’ (nymag.com)

‘Shepherds’ by David Matthew-Strunk (mongoosedistro.com)

Open Letter to Simon Van Zuylen-Wood

of New York Magazine

Mr. Wood of New York Magazine,

I got the magazine last night. Exhausted, I feel asleep before reading it. Here it is noon on July 4th and I’m reading the (Aaron) Bushnell piece. Not sure I’m a fan of being characterized as “David-Matthew Strunk, a murderer”.

A friend of mine I showed it to said, “You should be thankful you’re not in here for getting caught with a 17-year old girl, because then the guy would’ve wrote ‘David-Matthew Strunk, a sex offender’. You would’ve ended up in the hole (solitary confinement) for the fights that would’ve caused.”

Unfortunately, my friend is right. In prison, a murderer is not frowned upon, but a sex offender is worse than an actual leper. I would’ve gotten beat up for it, had I been labeled as such. I guess my point is “David Matthew-Strunk, a convicted felon” would have been a lot better, especially considering that I’m still fighting my case in apellate court.

I did not intentionally hurt anyone. The victim in the situation I’m in here for was a friend of mine. When the paramedics showed up I was trying to administer CPR to the victim and they had to pull me off of him. I learned CPR in a class where we train on rubber human medical dummies.

I am certified and have saved three lives with CPR, two on heroin users experiencing overdoses. It was before Narcan was available to the public. They were starting to lose color and turn blue from lack of oxygen because they quit breathing. The third was a woman experiencing a cocaine overdose. With cocaine, you have to get the person into an ice bath, because cocaine kills you by raising your body temperature dangerously high. So I got all the ice out of my freezer and put it all in a cold-water bath and put the woman in the bath, because she injected too much cocaine and went coma on me. She woke up and came out of it. And no, I’m not the one selling these people these drugs in the first place, I’m just the one bringing them back to life after someone else sold them the drugs. So, I really resent the “murderer” label.

Also, “Agenda 21” isn’t some conspiracy-nut thing that went viral on kook websites, it’s an actual set of protocols suggested at a United Nations meeting. It’s a set of “articles”, it’s a list of items. They got together and wrote up a list of items that they would like to see happen in our future society. The “Agenda 21” list is sort of like the “social credit score” system in place already in China. You may have heard already, but basically China has surveillance cameras literally everywhere, and for example, if you smoke a cigarette and then throw the butt in the street instead of extinguishing the cherry and putting the butt in your pocket for later disposal, well the camera can use facial-recognition technology to identity you, which notifies the social credit network, which can then notify your bank, which lowers your “social credit score” by 10 points.

Just a week ago I saw on the Discovery Channel that there is technology in China in which there is a screen you smile at, and if your smile isn’t “happy” enough, the computer’s security-tech won’t let you open the refrigerator in the break room at your place of employment! This is all “Agenda 21” type social engineering ideation.

I once had a copy of the actual Agenda 21. It is literally a list of proposals created by members of a council attached to the United Nations. I remember one of the articles proposed was to make seating options in public places to be functional but less comfortable so that homeless people won’t feel free to nap or sleep in the daytime in the public areas, forcing them to find approved bedding in approved homeless shelters. Keep in mind, cities big enough to have homeless shelters have a homeless population five times what the bedding space is at the shelters.

Not long after reading this thing about “uncomfortable seating options”, I noticed that a popular coffee shop in my area of Fort Collins, Colorado decided to replace the couches and the stuffed chairs surround the tables in their seating area with wooden pews, salvaged from a defunct Catholic church, and wooden straight-back chairs. Homeless people were coming into the coffee shop, purchasing a coffee, then napping for an hour or two on the couches and stuffed chairs, which probably made the yuppies, who are shop’s “target demographic” uncomfortable. Yet, these same yuppies do the same: they come in, buy a coffee and then sit on their laptop for an hour or two. What’s the difference? Both groups are spending the same amount of money. But, one demographic, the napping bums, make customers uncomfortable, and the other group, the laptop yuppies, does not.

This same coffee shop gets a 501(C)3 tax-break for being counted as a “church” because they clear the tables out and set up 40 to 50 folding chairs in the middle of the shop for the owner to do an hour-long “sermon” on Sundays. Then they put the chairs away and go back to business as usual, selling coffee tax-free. So, I guess the guy wouldn’t feel comfortable just kicking the bums out like Starbucks would, because it wouldn’t be very “Christian” of him?

The point is, this “Agenda 21” is a real thing, not just a tinfoil-hat nut-job conspiracy. It’s not law, yet, but it is being implemented by businesses and whole “test cities” like Fort Collins, Colorado. Every square inch of Fort Collins is on camera, just like in China. There’s a cable channel you can get on TV in Fort Collins that shows the cameras. It’s like a version of the TV show Cops because on this channel you can watch homeless people in alleyways stepping behind a dumpster to take a piss in private, and even before the guy gets done peeing, here comes the cops out of nowhere to catch the guy and arrest him, or at least ticket him. In Denver, if they catch you by yourself peeing behind a dumpster in an alleyway, they charge you with “public exposure”, the same charge that the trenchcoat perverts get for flashing children, then you are a lifetime “sex offender” and have to register on the sex offender website and can’t get a job or live in many places.

So, yes, things have gotten out of control with law enforcement and how homeless people get treated, and Aaron Bushnell was right to agree with me about the things I wrote. Our United States Supreme Court just decided that homeless people can be fined up to $1,000 per day and jailed for sleeping outside. These people are homeless. Where are they supposed to sleep? If they had $1,000 they most likely wouldn’t be homeless! What say you?

____________________________________

In closing, the problem with the Simon Woods of the world is, they are situated to be able to reach such a wide audience and could do a lot of good with a tool at their disposal like New York Magazine, instead of just sensationalizing people like me, people like Aaron. Or can he? He probably could’ve wrote his article in crayon and it wouldn’t matter. No one reads magazines anymore.

A Texas Prison BBQ: Transgender Style – by Nesa Gray

Hi there! My name is Nesa Gray. Nesa being an acronym for Neon Electric Space Alien and Grey being my gender spectrum. I am a non-binary transgender and I am incarcerated in the homophobic, racist ass Texas prison system.

I would like to share with you a recent bbq I threw here. Yes, you’re probaby wondering how I did this and that’s one of the things that made it so great! During the end of Oct 2023 while at the Darrington Unit I began requesting a bra. Ok, let me clarify something before we go any further. As a non-binary transgender I don’t identify as male or female, but I do enjoy both sides of the coin. Ok, well at first when I asked laundry for a bra they claimed they knew nothing about it. I then showed them my hormone pills and a handful of my boobies and said I am a certified (in my file) transgender and I have a license to carry a bra. Lol, yes I know it almost sounds like a gun! Boobed and dangerous! Anyway this laundry guy tells me when my boobs get bigger he’ll give me a bra! GASP! That some kind of sexual harrassment, right? Yeah, I thought so too! Sexist bastard. So he moves around without any good answer, so I asked the guards working my section to get me some rank and they did. A 90 year old Sgt. when I told him I needed a bra he looked at me like I’d grown a second nose! Well, as you can tell he was no help.

So next in line was my request for PREA (Prison Rape Elimination Act) Sgt. who is over the transgender issues in prison. Word came back saying they would be coming to talk to me within the hour, well when the hour was almost over the guard came back to let me know the PREA Sgt. wouldn’t be able to make it because they were in a meeting. Well, ok then. I guess it’s time to bbq! And we’ll just have to bbq without a bra. Just then I see one more Sgt. walking through and when I tried to talk to him he just ignored me and kept walking. 

Ok then. It’s now the time we’ve all been waiting on. IT’S BBQ TIME!!! I hope you’re hungry because we’ve got all kinds of goodies! BBQ blankets, grilled sheets, roasted mattresses and sauteed clothes! A bit of tissue and paper bags on the side! Here’s how it went. My grill aka locker has a top and bottom shelf and an open area on the side that smokes real good so all the bbq items can be smoked. Well, I loaded the bottom rack with two succulent blankets, a nice tender pair of sheets, two mattress filets, a couple paper bags and a roll of tissues for appetizers! Once the flames reached the blankets all was going well. I even added a blanket on the top rack and the smoker was doing it’s thang! The smell of the bbq went all throughout the prison and so did the smoke and within the hour all sorts of people started to show up.

The guards came by, and the PREA Sgt. even left her meeting. The Sgt. that ignored me even came by and yep, he got ignored! A couple of nice girls came by who were new and wanted to know what the special occassion was. They were a bit hostile at first but when I let them know my name was Nesa and that I was a non-binary transperson we instantly became friends! One told me my name was beautiful and the other said if she ever had a daughter she wanted to name her Nesa. One person came by and let me know there were no bras here because this is a male facility. I told her I’ve had bras at every unit I’ve been to and I’ve only been to male units. Then someone else tells me they have to order them. Then someone tells me I’ll get them when I get my bra license renewed! Well, all the bbq items cooked real good and the smoker did it’s thang so good it left my cell completely black but that’s the price of having a good bbq. I still have no bra but it was a great time and I’m already planning the next one! Till next time… Ta Ta

Existentialism and Transcendentalism – by Ross Hartwell

Hey there. I’ll continue with yesterday’s diatribe on utilizing an existentialist point of view to describe the world around us. As stated, the abstract loses its reality when paired with this philosophy. However, with the following, I’ll attempt to show that the existentialist’s belief in only the concrete existence of things is absurd. I will use negation, and concrete metaphor to describe the period of time known as the present. In this instance what I mean by “present” is the cronos present rather than the linear or cyclical present.

The problem with the cronos representation of the present is that from mankind’s point of view, there is no “present.” The following will describe this idea:
[Never standing still, its captivity eludes humanity. Unhindered by highways, bi-ways, dead ends, or skyways, from north to south, east to west, the subject freely roams. A mouse will muzzle a million mustangs before a man will imprison this monotonous mite. A slave to the past, to the future a master, steady as an oak through any disaster. Providentially tuned to a limitless principle, transcendentalism restlessly seeks its tangibility. No caliper can gauge nor will any scale weigh, yet it fills every clock, watch, and hourglass, and even eternal time and space, with its presence. If man could live within its parameters, he’d be God’s equal: this ever elusive point bisecting the past and the future.]


Not many philosophers have argued against the existence of the “present.” As a matter of fact, many of them, along with past holy men, have spent lifetimes attempting to explain, describe, or live within its parameters. I can meet the existentialists half-way on this abstract idea of the “present” by including a scent of transcendentalism. In a sense, time itself cannot exist within a world of existentialism. But for the sake of argument the focus will be on the “present.” With this in mind I have used two descriptive words which when used together create a novel term, “bifurcated meridian.” This term describes the cronos present better than the existing term, “present.”


Philosophers, theologians, and everyday folks have, since the dawn of language have improperly applied the word “present” to a point in time. Yet the “present,” though residing within the bounds of time, cannot bed anthropomorphically experienced at all. The past and the future live within the bounds of eternity, yet both have lifespans. Can one measure the life of the present? I think not. Life cannot even be, in the present. The perpetually reoccurring, non-apprehendable, and incalculable stratum called the “present” are actually endless immortal wonders trapped in eternity. This imperceptible duration is the incorruptible everlasting evanescence that passes yet never leaves. Time is a marker for existence, existence resides only in time, and without past and future tenses, existence cannot coexist with the “present.” The age old term the “present” fails to capture the iconic marvel philosophers and theologians and writers of Utopian fiction (think Aldous Huxley’s ‘Brave New World’) have attempted to seize. The so called “present,” as a term to describe itself, is useless to an entity (mankind) for which cannot fully experience its reality. Thus the term or rather more than a term, the “bifurcated meridian” is a philosophy claiming that because the time between the prime meridian of the past and future is incalculable though it exists it existence is outside of time and is experienced fully only by entities also existing outside of time. The “bifurcated meridian” is simply the highest place where the past and the future can be viewed from or contemplated.


As I continue to study and consider this synthesization of two opposing philosophies, existentialism and transcendentalism, I hope you or your audience might wish to hear more about it.

Take care and holler at me.

Peace, Ross.

A Dysfunctional Democracy – by Steven McCain

It is safe to say, regarding the United States, that there has never, in all of its history, existed a properly functioning democracy. That is to say, that there has never been a time when arbitrary class distinctions did not separate the governed from the governors, when social equality and the benefit of the people was of greater concern than political expediency and the profit and power accrual of the politicians. Likewise, there has never been a person who was involved in governmental affairs who sought after such, excepting only Thomas Paine, who was himself not a politician, but a writer; largely a political writer.


We are taught from childhood that the United States was founded as a “Representative Democracy,” but this is an equivocation which even the highly respected Patrick Henry railed against. And Ross Perot, in his 1992 presidential campaign, offered: “The British aristocracy we drove out in our Revolution has been replaced by our own version, a political nobility that is immune to the peoples will.” A democracy intimates a pursuit of the peoples will. Such is a pursuit which an aristocracy will not undertake. And History readily demonstrates that the people’s will has never been a prioritized concern of the U.S. Government, nor of the governments of the several states.

The United States was founded on the propositions that (a) “aII men are created equal,” and (b) that they have “certain inalienable rights; that amongst these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” But what does “all men” mean? What does it mean to you? This phrase, like so many others in law — the Declaration of Independence is a legal document –is oftentimes corrupted by our want of understanding. And our understanding itself is oftentimes corrupted by educators who either misteach or allow our own misunderstandings to persist uncorrected. To an innocent fifth-grade schoolboy, “all men” meant everybody, all people, all of mankind. He could not have been more wrong. Perhaps his teacher’s understanding of the phrase was as flawed as his. This was not the understanding of the founding fathers–Note the patriarchal connotations herwho penned it. Consider:

Women were, because of their gender, excluded slaves were, because of their social status, excluded the indigenous and free black populations were, because of their skin color, excluded; The poor were, because of their want of wealth, excluded those persons of the middle-class were, because of their want of property, excluded and non-Protestant Christians were, because of their religious beliefs, excluded.

Plainly, “all men” was an exclusive coterie. At the time of the drafting of the Declaration of Independence, it consisted of the wealthiest and most powerful and influential white men in the American Colonies. The same, excepting a smattering of tokens, is true of today’s America. This fact testifies against America’s social and political progress, and for its stagnation in these environments. It witnesses to the fact that our leaders today, two and a half centuries after the signing of the Declaration of Independence are no better people, and no better at leading than George, the British king that our founders abhorred.


Neither, however, are “We the People” blameless: For it is we that have sat idle while our leadership has exploited us and alienated us from those “certain inalienable rights” which include “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” It is we who have allowed our leaders to assemble the world’s largest prison population. And it will be we who condemns ourselves and our posterity to abject slavery if we do not get off our hands, and act.
President Biden even said:


Freedom has never been guaranteed. Every generation has to earn it, fight for it, defend it in the battle between autocracy and democracy, between the greed of the few, and the rights of the many.


-Zeke Miller, AP White House correspondent, “Biden says each generation has to ‘earn’ freedom, in solemn Memorial Day remarks” (May 28, 2024)


This fact is true, even if the fight takes us in front of our own government, though, undoubtedly, this is not what Biden had in mind when he said it.

Her Place – by Scott Smith

The bottomless abyss of the ultimate rejection is the foundation of her irreconcilable soul. This epiphany of devastation impacts resoundingly by reflection representing her stark unpleasant future. Distraught acceptance of the echoing sledgehammer of a living death invites her to slumber.

Inhumanely laying in the fetal position staring at her feet, psychologically she is suddenly tossed into the societal maelstrom of racial bigotry and gender hatred by ignorantly confused perpetrators and fraudulent miscreants.

She suffers from the melancholic malady of being the victim in the victimless crime of her own existence. For her, luck was not a fleeting thing, but rather, nonexistent. The impact of the gratuitous trauma of recognizing her failed life left her disheveled thoughts in a roaring silence.

Humanistic desensitization, punctuated with the asylum of emptiness, conjures the ghosts of tortured sleeplessness, ultimately depriving her of a personal identity. Previous accomplishments quickly fade into a shameful memory of emotional despondency. In failing to acknowledge self-recognition, she feels less than a nobody. A disgusting waste of self.

Conscious nightmares, a place of myriad torments and endless pain, wander aimlessly behind haunted eyes. Many of her delusions get unchained to become real life experiences.

Objectively laying alone, she is not convinced this is truth, as her peripheral vision witnesses the slow expanding sanguinary pool in pursuit of slumbering peace. At some point confrontational negative social interactions must terminate. Possibly, and hopefully, sooner than later.

In the vulnerable position of acquiescence, she feels compelled to earnestly peruse their facial expressions of satisfaction.It is a fast, easy read, not only does she identify with the downtrodden characters, but empathizes in resonation of their debilitating agony. Being their desired target, she intimately knows the personal surreptitious anguish which motivates their pointless savagery. Debauchery inflicted by scalawags.

A disturbing reverie instilled by the obsequious sycophants, who espouse meaningless platitudes and live in worthless cliches, plague her as the equivalents of those gnashing teeth while consuming ripped flesh. This does not make her a vegetarian.

She is fully immersed in drinking the vile elixir of the intoxicating infliction of devastation. Being waylaid, without provocation under the premise of gender hatred, in her journey toward unmitigated liberation, she is driven farther into the eviscerating void of irrelevance.

The unidentified author of her pain whispers the sleep of death while her murky consciousness quests for truth, with no navigational influence to effectively comfort her. Rapidly reminiscing of her initial social awkwardness of exposed passion whilst clutching the expiring cloak of integrity and dignity. She employs a policy of freely floating in the direction of minimal imposition of anguish while discovering that loneliness and love are the only two real truths of life.

Her crippled soul, intermeshed with her dismal destiny, is confirmed by the illuminated darkness of intrinsic pain that is intertwined with her confused state of catastrophic failure. The erasure of her personal identity floats with undefined purpose to an uncertain destination. She is caught in the cataclysmic miasma of the consequence of being her own collateral damage.

Her crystal-clear journey of unmitigated hopelessness is subtly enhanced with a sordid slippery path of acrid sludge. She is led by the delusional anticipation of pleasure through the internal desire for a momentary respite, just a sliver of heavily diluted peace, a flickering scintilla of light. Such an iota of happiness isn’t to be had, experienced, nor imagined.

Clandestinely hidden in the forgotten recesses of the black pulsating shadows of her overburdened mind, she submits to the vociferous hatred plaguing her existence. She embraces the crushing evisceration of anguish which leaves her in a state of excruciating breathlessness. Straining, gasping, distended strangling for a whisper of fresh air, a partial inhale, just wee little taste of hope.

The beauty of imagination is its adroit ability to propel her to delve deeply into a place of the blackest darkness in appreciation of the landscape of misery with its unique, horrible and disturbing visions.

She acknowledges that the repetitive history of violent abuse was not to be her destiny, however, she intuitively is optimistic to encounter something substantially worse. History is not destiny, but in the motivational analysis of pain and pleasure, they are found to be conceived and accepted as identical. Both, pain and pleasure, crawl shamelessly into the abandoned human husks of the spiritually destitute and the emotionally bankrupt. These are the remnant human shells abdicated in defeat at the oppressive whim of those who claim perfection and infallibility – the economically superior, the self-righteous, and the politically expedient.

She knows what it means to be alone, lonely, and in the dark. Leaving all things unguarded as she went forward deeply into the blackness of the conscious unconscious.

If nobody wants to claim her down here where she doesn’t belong, than maybe somebody up there has a place for her. Some place she feels invited, welcome, and at home – where she belongs.

Hugging herself while lying quietly vulnerable. A warm humble embrace of peace with the world. Her place.
