*POWER TO THE PEOPLE, RIGHT ON!*


I often think of all my old friends and I decided that someone should help todays kids.

I see all their beautiful faces on the news or on the streets and my heart goes out to them.

Like Bob Marley said "So Much Trouble"!

I think about PEACE in America.

I know that many people are definitely taking a beating out there.


I got really upset, when I read in the Jersey Journal about a 20 year old guy killing another 20 year old guy over $200.***



TuPac Ghetto Gospel



I figured I'd give you the 411 on what I think society is doing to everyone.

I'm 58 years old. I can remember and know history going back over 100 years.
I have a photographic memory for faces and events and my Irish mother never stopped telling me, her philosophy on life.
"The secret for success in every thing you do".


I Love People!
I've met good people and bad people, but the good people really outnumber the bad ones.

****It's Time For All The Good People In The World To Unite***Get Smart, Take Control of Their Lives****


Balance of Power.
The rich would like to stay rich and pass the money on to their decedents.
Unfortunately us poor folk don't fit into someone's plans.


Survival Of The Fittest.

*KNOWLEDGE IS POWER!*

The rich know this and they teach it to their children.
But every time a rumor that education could be the key to success in life gets out, it gets played down big time!

COLLEGE IS GOOD take my word for it.
It is definitely easier than high school!
Almost as easy as grammar school. REALLY, NO LIE!

So like everybody's partying.
That's the big trap!
DRUGS*** And they're not even real drugs*****

In the city the drugs of choice are prescription painkillers, crack, heroin, etc. or any drug the dealer has and booze.
These drugs are toxic enough alone.
Mixed with alcohol they are a lethal combination!!!!

This is why 20 year old kids are shooting each other over a piece of turf in the ghetto instead of getting financial aid and scholarships and partying at a good college.

EDUCATION Is So Important To Getting The BEST OUT OF Life!

If you are uneducated you cannot tap into the minds of great thinkers.
You have less strategies to fight your way up with.

Then, theres the brainwashing and mind control to take you out with if you are still making it without an education.

Don't believe everything all the celebrities tell you.
They really screwed my generation around in the sixties.
Glorifying Drugs and sex (another trap), while at the same time getting rich themselves.

"Tune in, Turn on, Drop out" how ridiculous was a statement like that? But it sounded good at the time. (If you get a professor like Timothy Leary in college, drop his class immediately)!


Most of the kids I grew up with died young from drugs, alcohol and violence.


Divide and Conquer

That's What All The Gang Violence Is About*******

You Take Each Other Out , for a faceless, nameless society.


Temptations My Girl


The Way You Do The Things You Do


Well just the name Temptations says it all! So brilliant so talented!
At least the drugs were real back then. Not that it helped.
Nowadays the cocaine is meth amphetamine and the heroin is synthetic. Really nasty stuff!


Amphetamine
Chemical
Formula C9H13N
*hydrochloride** REALLY BAD ACID*
*sulfate)*A TYPE OF SULPHAR *

*Do You Really Want To Take The Chance Of Putting This Kind Of Poison In Your Body Even Once? & Oh yeah, Meth amphetamine is more addictive and corrosive to the body than heroin.*


Amphetamine
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amphetamine


There is no real cocaine or heroin out there. All U.S. borders are shut tight by homeland security.

If even, one could get there hands on real crack. You Wouldn't Want To Destroy Your Body With That Either.***

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crack_cocaine


DRUGS ARE A FAKE-OUT FROM JUMP STREET

Drugs are just another commodity like beer or tobacco, that people make money selling.*


The Pharmaceutical companies have all those commercials about how this drug can make you healthy again, etc., etc., And then, like five years later, they're all being sued in these big class action lawsuits (their drugs hurt so many people).

Drugs are a trap! Educate yourself as to what kind of drugs you're getting even if it's a doctors prescription. They're full of salts and acids and all kinds of junk. They'll destroy your stomach.

I know all about this kind of stuff from growing up in the sixties.
I am the voice of experience!


Drugs are a commodity; so they become a type of currency.

This causes commerce, which in turn causes crime.

Drugs are so extremely expensive that many people do have to turn to crime in order to support their habits.

It's very sad how many beautiful young people are sitting in a jail cell because of drugs!

An especially good trick among the poor is to convince them that a little bit of life is good.

But you know what, a whole lot of life, is way better! *****

Don't show them the bigger picture of how not being a fool gets you the big bucks in about 8 years.
FREE COLLEGE= GOOD JOB=BIG BUCKS. *****

Nowadays this is all free. It's called financial aid and anyone who doesn't have a lot of money is eligible to get it.

Also Scholarships are really easy to get. All you have to do is get half way decent marks in high
school. Stay home at night, do some homework. Nobody has to be a genius to get into college nowadays.

I remember as a teenager, in the winter freezing (literally), hanging out on street corners and there really wasn't anything going on! Just a bunch of teenagers hanging out on a street corner.
I didn't know how easy scholarships were to get when I was a kid.
This is why I'm telling all of you. I don't want anyone to have to suffer the way I did.****

People don't have to fight over the chump change that you get from the illegal stuff.

This isolates you and keeps you poor.

It gives society a excuse to deny you what they owe everybody.

I'm old but I'm not old enough, not to be shocked at the War In The Ghetto!

This is really dumber than race hatred.

You're all being convinced it's cool to kill each other. Why, is a mystery to me!!!

I'm not butting in but I think that you are all really smart people, smarter than a lot of people!

Bob Marley IS RIGHT
someone has to save the good people of the world.

You know what, your rights are my rights*******
Civil rights help everybody!


I grew up with all this music. That's how I know so much about LOVE****

Dr. King was right when he said LOVE IS THE ANSWER*

Hate is ok. But to dwell on it is counter-productive.

Hate Hurts The Hater.

The ones you hate don't care if you hate them or they wouldn't be such bad people that anyone would hate them. I think that they probably like it. It probably makes them feel more powerful.

Blind Hate distracts you from the business of everyday living.
You spend all the time you could be productive, obsessing on people who don't care. Instead of doing things to make your own life good!***

Blind hate is unreasonable. Everyone is an individual. While you waste your mind with negativity you might turn an angel away from your door!

I started listening to Bob Marley in the 80's.
I decided to take up his cause for PEACE IN THE WORLD.
Thus my blog.

I know it's a rat race out there.
But you know the rich didn't get rich because some fairy godmother tapped them with a wand.
They know how to get and keep.

We really have to break out of this mind controlled like 1984 type society we're experiencing (I read that book).

Break free and as Bob Marley says Stand up for your Rights.

Knowledge is Power!
Worth more than all the chump change in the world!


Supply And Demand

There are only so many resources to go around and you know the stronger physically will always try to take it away from the weaker. It's the history of the world.

*****You gotta be quicker and smarter than everyone else! *****

My mother always said the trick was to be better than they are.
That way no one can talk bad about you.

For instance it's a good racket to say that property values are low in a neighborhood because of crime and then buy up the good properties cheap.

Now that the bottom has dropped out of the housing market, America's inflated housing prices have dropped by 50% already and are expected to drop another 40% around August 08. They are expected to continue to drop for at least the next year, until they finally hit rock bottom!

Everyone can literally own the Ghetto they live in.
Mortgage rates are gonna go lower.
"What goes around Comes around" You are the people that built these neighborhoods. It's only fair that you should own them!


Housing Bust Duration

Don't Pay Rent To A Landlord, pay the money to yourself.

When You Own Land You Have Political Power.

After this crash on the housing market, almost anyone can get a mortgage.

Bob Marley *******Beautiful Bob Marley****
***The World's Muse*******

ILLUSTRATION: GETTING *** The people playing with Bob Marley had to audition to get the job. They were the Best.
***For All The People Who Keep The School Sparkling For Us**** *You always took really good care of me when I used to go around hanging my stuff on the bulletin boards. Your friendship means so much to me. Thank you and MAY YOU HAVE, THE BEST WORLD, ALWAYS***

***Stand Up For Your Rights****


MUSIC is a good illustration because it is a craft. If you start learning it when you are very young and you work hard at practicing, you can be the best too.

This Is Just One Example of How Not Wasting Your Youth can really make a difference in a person's life. Get Some Education* It's easy. Do a little. You can learn a lot.


Street Drugs Are Definitely Just Some Chemical Junk, That Somebody Made up, In Their Basement****

Pharmaceutical Drugs Are Definitely Just Some Chemical Junk, That Some Chemist Made Up In A Pharmaceutical Company's Basement****

Neither are made from natural substances. The chemicals they use you would not give to an animal you loved. DEFINITELY NOT FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION!!! *******


*IT'S ALL POISON! REALLY, REALLY, REALLY *


Bob Dylan Subterranean Homesick Blues



Please Don't Take Drugs. They Can Kill You The Very First Time You Try Them!
I'm not just saying this. IT'S TRUE.

Drugs keep you from thinking clearly! Bob Marley says "Them drugs gonna make you slow"........... FOR REAL!


They'll Keep you back in your best years. When you're young, strong and most productive! Keep you from catching up, if they don't eliminate you outright. Drugs will distract you from getting the most out of life.

The drugs on the street nowadays are REAL BAD.
Being synthetic they make a person crazy, crazy!

They also kill you quicker. Much stronger than natural drugs.

*****Don't believe the story that you can use drugs on a recreational basis. This has been a lie forever!*****

Addiction isn't pretty. And it's not fun.

With opiates you just go to sleep. Hopefully not permanently!

With cocaine you just speed up. What's so much fun?

LSD just makes you schizophrenic! What's fun about that?

Prescription drugs destroy the body and mind faster even, than the street drugs. If they contain Tylenol and you drink alcohol with them they can burn your liver right up on the spot. ONE TIME**** No fun here!


So, in the immortal words of our WONDERFUL, old Bayonne High School Principal, Mr. O'Connor; who used to tell us over the intercom loud speakers:

* "Forewarned is Forearmed". *



Peace and Happiness To All Of You***


Stephen Marley *Mind Control*
