Media Play

Visions of pain and despair, with horrors of daily life forced upon the masses through modern windows of technology. These images burned into the minds of the innocent millions of sinless victims oppressed by today’s tools of extortion by society. Images so powerful and prolonged within the soul, they’re toxic to the mind and body causing you to purge the evils through pure emotions. Some images affect the world with disasters to unbearable to fathom, with hundreds of thousands sent to the after life, with walls of water surrounding Gods hand picked for life after death. Sinister images seem to over power the exemplary, and moral images seen through out time as noted in the calendar with December sixth, and September eleventh, as countless human beings were visited by Death. Weapons of mass destruction sought through Fat man, and Little boy, that devastated a country, with the might of the suns power, in a blink of an eye solely designed to kill and destroy humanity. Images of hope so easily forgotten within major catastrophic events, as the media has a part so intrusive to this equation of corrupting the minds of millions with the craft of deliverance through modern arts of technology. Society eats and devours this information with greed and voracity like army ants to its pray.

The media controls. The apathetic American is taught to believe what the media shoves down his throat. This is why we have a collection of a--holes in Washington and state government. In our district we had a doctor with two Doctorates running for state rep. He spent $9000.00 of his pown money to run. His opponent (spending $100,000.00) along with the media accused the doctor of trying to buy the election. A landslide victory for his opponent. Outright stupidity on the voters part. Vince
