The Black Curtain Volume 1. My document of freedom



The Black Curtain
Vol 1.
By Smoke

What is the black curtain?

The curtain is a symbol of our slow dying freedoms. One thing
I should say first is I don't recommend a physical revolution
when it is not needed. I also believe in our country and the
freedoms provided in the constitution. My problem is mainly
with the abuse of power. Democracy works in a crazy half assed
way better than anything we can design on paper. People needlessly
neglect many factors when thinking up these wacky systems. One
major factor is the fact that people are natural anarchists as
are most living things. I will talk about these things first just
to open up. To tell the truth this file is flowing free off my mind.
so for all I know I might come off as a complete raving lunatic or
a shapeless bore.

"Life" The original anarchy

Man unlike what most people would like to believe still retains his
animal behavior. If you think because you build a television you are
the master of the universe you are kidding yourself. One of these
characteristics is his territorial behavior. "A mans home is his
castle" a famous but so true saying. This can apply to many situations
not just your house but also surroundings,relationships,and claimed
territory among many things. Gang warfare is one example of this
and with this man uses a vice called money. Man also has deep down
want to repopulate subconsciously. This has been proven. Unfourtunately
man through his so called evolution has developed many bad skills
so to say. One of these is to kill beyond the limit of need. This
basically means he doesn't just kill for what he needs from creatures
he is very genocidal in nature. Well enough with the rants. I'm not gonna
critize or at least not till its needed.


Democracy closest thing to Anarchy? <Opression:A sign of the monarchy>

This is where I talk about politics politicians and laws and such. Let
me get one thing straight to all you people out there. The freedoms you
have were not given to you they were claimed by you. You control all your
freedoms. If things get too bad in places you notice you don't see the
people roll over and die a slow death. No what happens is Change. This is one
of the inevitable things in life.Anyway don't fret no matter how much they
try and turn you into mindless robots it is impossible. You will never
be a collective of minds and you will never follow something that you
don't agree with or that causes agrivation. Your body follows laws but
your mind is free to think. We live in a darker time where a government
can kill one of its own and just make it look like an every day occurence.
What gave them the right to have this power?? You did. You gave them the
power to make your decisions and this is what you got in return. The days
of knights of justice are over. Who knows maybe one day a politician will
be a respected member of society like when we originally revolted. A sign
of this is the taint of confusion,corruption, and compulsion. This isn't a
problem only ocurring in the u.s. although you were lucky enough to be born
or to have come to this nation. Now is the time to talk about politicians.
The pigs feeding off the trough and enjoying the left overs of your freedoms.
I may talk about the freedom fighters from time before but even when they
began the country they never foresaw the coming of the civil rights movement
and womens rights and removal of rights. Our constitution is one built on the
backs of slaves and blood of indians and written on hemp to boot.<Metaphor
for the mentally challenged. One thing should be set straight no matter what
system you belong to its not going to be easy to follow. You might break the
laws of nature and stand upright but you have face consequence which may be
nothing but back pain. Well I've gotten offtrack. I don't know much of the
politics from before my time but I know most of what I hear and see and I
try my hardest to read between the lines. As an introduction to politicians
I'd like to talk about a time of darkness and of reform.

20 years of love and oppression and then it happened.
The 60's.

This was a time period thats impact is still being felt in todays generations
and also newcoming ones no doubt will look at this time in awe. I currently
belong to a generation still looking for a cause and we may have struck oil.
This period started the great disbelief in american politics and this is
where the doubt came into place. A nation of millions watched its new youth
die for a noble cause that was fought in a way no war should be. Don't get me
wrong I'm not a peacenik I think the ends justified the means but the means
could have been done differently. One thing I discovered when I studied both
the 60's vietnam and our own civil war. It is impossible for you to win
someone elses civil war. All you cando to help is give aid to the side you
support. What I mean by support is not through troops whic is alright if it is
a smaller amount than what we ssent. What you do is give them the tools to
work with. Anyway. First there was kenedy the original weekend warrior from
what I've read and learned he like clinton would get into a civil war for a
little bit and then pull out which isn't so bad. Times change and the war
begins to roar closer to its start. President Kennedy was not what I would
call a saint considering he slept with other women and caused the death of
many men on the bay of pigs. Unfourtunately a few bad seeds were planted into
the country earlier in time were beginning to sprout. One of these was the
CIA and the other major one was a man by the name of J.Edgar Hoover who had
everyone so scared he could throw around his weight and increase his power.
At this time kennedy would be killed in a very questionable assasination that
was partially clouded over slightly a few days later by his vice president.
Lyndon Baines Johnson. He would call for the start of the war in vietnam.
For which they playfully called a police action. During this time a freedom
movement began rolling. People started coming out of the controlled shell of
the 50's and learn the meaning of the individual. Although some of their
actions were a little questionable to me. Like calling all of the drafted baby
killers and ostrasizing<sp?> them. Most of these men didn't want to be there
and would not have liked to see their frineds shot and have nightmares of the
sights they saw there. The people still fought and burned their draft cards
and bra's. Well this trend would carry on into the 70's but would stop when
the 80's reared its head. Unlike popular belief I would definetely say Nixon
didn't cause vietnam he wasn't in office it was Mr.Johnson. So democrat or
Republican we were pretty much screwed.The war raged and soon came nixon the
taughter of the Silent Majority. Which today is still true unfourtunately
there is the less talked about silent minority the poor. The war raged on and
was finally given up and soon afterword the imaginery wall fell in rushed the
flood of communism. During this time our country infected our men with some-
thing they supposedly were against. When they give them heroin and acid and
then tell you its a problem there is only one solution they are the problem.
I cannot say I'm pure. I've used drugs and like them but I was smart enough
to try only psychadelics. The dark seeds grow in power and discover their
newfound power.

The line in the sand is drawn. 70's and the punk movement
I don't know much about the 70's other than a lot of the hippie movement and
freedom fighter spirit continued. A new movement starts a different revelution
It defied all teaching all religion and most of all authority. The hippies
were laughed at for their melancholiness. Basically,they didn't "Give a Fuck."
Do what you want to do. I've not much to add here most it has been said on
albums from such bamds as the Sex Pistols, The Ramones, and The Fear.

Civilization no more??<The 80's>
Ahh now here is a time I know about very much.The eighties was full of scare
tactics and mind control. We see the return of the religious fanatics thru
a device called TV. Now bigger than ever these so called holy men became the
perfect example power corrupting. People of middle class and lower through
them their money thinking it would bring them miracles. What they didn't
realise is that you make your own miracles. I don't think you should feel to
sorry for these used people they were given the choice to not give the tel-
evengelists their money. Ahh who can forget the false tellings of the coming
of nuclear war. It was a scary thing for me but I suppose it was even scarier
during the time of the cuban missile crisis.

The 60's was important to me but you might as well have skipped the 70's and
80's part they're really badly written.

Politicians+Money=Re-election

Well after my long spiele about my perception of time I finally get to.
Politicians.TA DA!!!!!! Politicians men for the people or against? Who
can tell its one of those things thats case by case. I extremely dislike
several politicians. The only ones that come to mind right now though are
Ted Kennedy, Diane Feinstein, and Lyndon Johnson. Now we enter on a very
touchy subject. It's a subject where you must like buddhism teaches avoid
the extremes. So true so true. To be true to something you must try to avoid
these. I have a hard time with this but you like me must try your hardest to
look at everything from both sides no matter how much you disagree with it.
Let's see we Democrats and Republics and several splinter groups. I'll get
more into this when I talk about labeling things. Well I'll say it twice its
a crime to support something you disagree with just because your group says
likes it. Same thing with politicians why vote for republican if they are
going to do more harm to you and what you believe to be. I was a republican
because thats what I was told to be. I'm sorry if it seems to be like I am
picking on republicans I just picked that at random. Well I decided to leave
that group and become and individual. Remember they aren't gonna care as long
as they have your guarenteed vote. The exploiticians<Evil politicians> can
find legal ways to be bribed find the loop holes in our system and exploit.
Enough of this I'm bored with this.


Labels Our double edged sword!

Calling someone something giving it a name. This is a weapon out to destroy
the original anarchists. They group you and give you a name they destroy your
individuality by taking away your original name and have you associated with
groups. It stirs emotion and mixes the soul. What next?

Justice of my piece

Law and order. To an anarchist its the enemy. It's a needed job but the
perception of what should be against the law tends to beat the constitution
and the Bill of Rights into the ground. Rights as I said earlier aren't
priveliges actually you can live fine without mans laws limiting rights and
crime. Rights or freedoms are something that will be partaken of regardless of
it being against the law. No matter what you do someone will always break the
laws made. There is always going to be crime.

Death

Death. The ultimate anarchy. No more authority just freedom. In my case I
believe in reincarnation so I think if something dies it will come again and
even if the earth is wiped out life will start again and of course we will all
start nature again.Well enough on religion.


This is Part I of the Black Curtain most likely there will not be a part II
unless it is asked of which it most likely won't.
