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.
