REBELS WITHOUT A CAUSE- THE DECLINING EMPIRE

I look at those who live in supressed nations and are willing to protest at great risk to try to gain more freedom.  Then you look at what has been happening in Britain and you wonder, why?  What great injustice has been done to these poor people?  From what I can see they have no reason to riot.  There are those who are just looking for a reason to cause trouble, and the police are helpless.  Why?  They can't carry guns, and believe it or not, the people don't trust them carrying guns.  Really?  The Brittish populace is not allowed arm themselves either, are they setting themselves up for disaster?  The Brittish Prime Minister says much of this has been brought on by generations of welfarism, those expecting something for nothing. Hannalore Helmling was born in Germany in 1929, she survived World War 2, even though her own mother died in a bomb shelter.  Life was not easy for her, yet no complaints.  After the war she married a G.I. and moved to the states.  After that marriage didn't work out, she married a second husband and moved to Michigan.  In 1960 Hannalore gave birth to her fourth child.  That child would go on to become a radio dj with a curious mind.  One thing Hannalore told him, be weary when your government takes away your weapons you will have no way to defend yourself.  She knew this first hand after living under a facist government.  My mother, Hannalore, told me this from her own experiences, this week another mom speaks of her own experiences.  Stacy Yates grew up in Hartlespool England.  She understands what is going on over there but also since she's been here for a while she can see it from a different perspective than most.  According to Stacy, many in England are worried what happens in the States will wind up over there, Stacy says "It already has."  Many feel the U.S. is filled with gun happy citizens, that is not accurate.  I have a 22 rifle, that's it, it has been sitting in my closet for years. Up here a lot of people have hand guns and rifles because of deer and other game hunting, however very few have ever created an incident.  Perhaps it is propaganda that is used to scare others.  Certainly in the bigger cities there are more problems with guns, but just imagine if the police didn't have them to fight back?  This week Stacy Yates shares her feeling and concerns for her mother country. The main reason I did this show was to give you a wake up call.  Is this the beginning of what is to become of socialist countries?  How long can you keep letting others take from the pot and not put anything back in?  What happens when you create apathy?  Are there others who are benefitting from all of this?  This may be a great opportunity to seek some answers.  What can we do?  Are you feeling helpless?  About the only thing you can do is listen and maybe learn, stop thinking you have all the answers and listen.  Pretty hard to do when the ego doesn't want that to happen.  That's why I like being humble and those that are.  And the meek shall inherit the earth.  Did you ever hear of the term collective?  The theory is that when enough of us get the message there will be a change.  Have you ever noticed throughout history that the world's thinking seemed to change overnight?  If we are all connected through our thoughts, then what is the magical number of people needed to bring forth change?   You can't think the thoughts unless you know what's going on.  Might I suggest Hillary Raimo?  (www.hillaryraimo.com)   What I like about her is that her message is spiritual and open, to all possibilities.
