ENDGAME
“Intelligence”, is
generally understood as: The ability to reason, plan, solve problems; to think
abstractly, comprehend complex ideas; to learn quickly; to learn from
experience; to reflect in a broader and deeper capability; to comprehend by —"catching on,"
"making sense" of things, "figuring
out” what to do or ”perceive” what
something is really all about.
Individuals
differ from one another in their ability to: Understand complex ideas; adapt effectively to
the environment into which they are in; to learn from an experience or to form
a level of reasoning that can overcome a conceptual obstacle by taking their thought
processes to a level of maturity that allow them to see beyond the bigotry of a
collective hamstringing. This is true in
many facets of life, whether mental, physical, spiritual, or political.
Humans
in general are gregarious in their nature and are more likely to follow the
masses rather than form a stand-alone opinion. It is far easier to, “go with
the flow” than to formulate and accurate personalized understanding of a set of
occurrences or circumstances when enticed to participate in a collective. From
the times of Nimrod to the present, masses have been gathered to give power the
collective over the individual. This has been verified time and time again by
history.
Every day we are faced with situations that put our senses,
our judgment, and our intelligence to test.
All areas of life are bombarded by those who want to add our number to
their collective by enticing us, to decide, join, participate, lobby,
demonstrate, protest, petition, etc., in various endeavors that will benefit
the person(s), group(s), organization(s), excreta to achieve a specific objective(s)
or goal(s). It is no wonder that it
becomes easier to “just go with the flow” when a premise seems to follow our
individual predisposed opinions (un-intelligent view) on a particular occurrence or
circumstance rather than to establish our position on the matter by research
(an intelligent view).
At
this point you must be asking yourself what does all-of-the-above have to do
with Jon Buice. Everything, this BLOG,
Andy Kahan, The GLBT, various Local and State Politicians, Bill Habren, Ray Hill,
etc., all have a vested interest in Jon Buice and obtaining a collective in the
matter of his release or non-release from prison. All have an objective one way or the other for
their position. For some it is not a
matter of what happen in 1991 or the years following. It matters not what Jon has done to redeem
his life. It matters not that Jon is a
40 year old man who has been in prison since he was a 17 year old teen. It matter not that Jon has steadily worked
toward his redemption. Jon Buice is only
the “Pawn” in an end game.
The
endgame is control of the sensibility and logic of the masses to rein power
over “The Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles”. This quest for power or control
over that agency is the ultimate objective and has nothing to do with justice
for Jon Buice or Paul Broussard. It all
about who has control over the out-comes
and power over those that disagree with their position: Andy Kahan wants to feed his narcissism and
self-presumed power over the Parole Board; The GLBT wants to extend their power
over Texas Legislation and to place a warning to all that they have that power;
Politicians want the power of the vote from patrons of the first two groups;
Bill Habren wants to see Justice administrated in the matter of Jon Buice, in
order to provide similar justice for those like Jon, who are deserving of
parole, caught in a viscous end game; Ray Hill wants solstice for the misgivings
he has gained over the years since he had Jon incarcerated for 45 years knowing
that it was too was only for a show of power to force into existence laws
giving power to GLBT community.
I too
have motives as promoted in this Blog. I
too, am seeking a collective. I too, have
an Endgame. I Love and forgive my son
for the actions that he took 23 plus years ago.
I had the intelligence to research, review and verify information concerning
those actions. (See previous Blog postings).
I have seen first-hand the redemption of my son, Jon Buice. His acceptance of what occurred that night in
1991, his pursuit of forgiveness, his education and enlightenment. In contrast,
I reel at the accusations and falsehoods of those opposing Jon’s release
without merit for their own self-importance in the eyes of others. I anguish
over the Parole Board Members caving into the various collectives in fear of losing
their appointed position or potential position with the Board. I have great contempt for the Justice System
and the inequalities in matters of law based on race, religion, social
presence, politics and money. I am bewildered
at the release of others that have done things far more heinous in nature and
who upon release were far less achieved than that of my son. I am in wonderment as I do not see the collectives
in opposition of their release. I have come
to understand that where there is no money to be made, no political or
appointed position to be obtained or retained, no self-worth to be exploited,
there is: No endgame.
I have
a great disdain for any collective that promotes unfounded hate. Not only in the case of Jon Buice but for all:
Christian vs. Muslim, Sectarian vs. Jews, Black vs. White, Gay vs. Straight,
Liberal vs. Conservative and etc. The embattlement
of the divided seems endless. I often
wonder if there is any redemption for anyone that participates in such
misguided collectives. My intelligence,
education and faith tell me one has to rise above these great divides and put
aside unfounded prejudices. Still the collectives would have us believe that we
do not possess the intelligence to discern truth in such matters and that they
know better which position we should take.
Truth in the end always prevails and I know that Jon will one
day be freed, even if Jon is to remain in prison yet another year. Until Jon is released I will continue to
oppose those that would capitalize on the ignorance of the masses that have no real
knowledge in this matter, other than what the collectives would have them
believe. I will continue to fight those
that lack the intelligence or the will to investigate and verify the sources of
information being presented. I will
continue to expose the motivations of those in pursuit of derailing the parole
of Jon Buice. I will not stop until knowledge
of the misuse of power by our Political and Justice System officials is laid to
bare and all the players are identified who would corrupt the system for self-gain. I will not stop until I succeed at stopping
the masses from being misled to unfounded positions, by the collectives, in the
matter of Jon Buice. I will continue to provide
knowledge of the issues and not cave into the any that oppose his release. This
is my Endgame.
