PERSPECTIVE.. THIS IS 100% NOT A POLITICAL STATEMENT BECASUE AS A TEENAGE COLLEGE KID, I WOULD HAVE BEEN FIRST IN LINE WITH ROPES TO TOPPLE ANY BIG OBJECT OVER JUST FOR THE THRILL OF CONTROLING A LARGE OBJECT,------ NOW THAT I AM OLDER, I WOULD BE PROVIDING THE ROPE AND DRAGGING WHATEVER OFF TO SELL THE METAL TO THE NEAREST SCRAP DEALER REGARDLESS OF WHAT .. OR WHO.. THE METAL OBJECT PORTRAYS..
NOW TEH PERSPECTIVE... THESE DEMONSTRATERS ARE OBJECTING TO PEOPLE WHO OBJECTED,--- GOT INTO A FIGHT, ---AND LOST... NOW IF THEY ARE DEFENDING THE RIGHT TO DEMONSTARATE AND QUESTION, THEY ARE DEMOLISHING THE STATUES OF PEOPLE WHO WERE IN EXACTLY THE POSITION IN WHICH THEY FIND THEMSLEVES... YET HAVE NOT YET LOST????
I SEE WHERE THAT UTOPIA SITUATION -- NO POLICE-- WAS SET UP ? OREGON? LOVELY IDEA, BUT THERE WAS NO ONE TO ORDER TEH NECESSITIES OF LIFE ... LIKE PORTAPOTTIES....AND WHEN THE PEOPLE WITH THE LOFTY IDEAS HAD TO GO HOME AND GET SOME SLEEP, THE MIXED NUTTS TOOK OVER AND LEFT THERI MARK... NO T ONLY ON WALLS AND STORM DRAINS BUT WHERE POO PICKERS WERE CRITICALLY IN SHORT SUPPLY.
I HAVE SEEN THIS UTOPIA SITUATION--- POLICE WITHOUT GUNS --- MAY BE ONE FOR EVERY FOUR SMALL TOWNS BECAUSE PEOPLE HAD AN INSTICT TO CIVIL BEHAVIOR.
THE CIVIL BEHAVIOR WAS ====IN 1957====A REMARKABLE CHANGE FROM COLBY COLLEGE IN MAINE. I HAD A VERY SHARP LEARNING CURVE DELIVERED BY MY 2 british ROOMATEES GWEN AND ELIZABETH WITH A " WE JUST DON'T DO THAT HERE" - AMERICANS HAD A BAD REPUTATION AS TRAVELERS IN BRITAIN.. AND AS I PUT THOUSANDS OF MILES ON A BICYCLE PEDALING AROUND... I LEARNED A CIVIL BEHAVIOR IN THE HILLS OF SCOTLAND THAT WAS TOTALLY NEW TO ME. TOTAL STRAINGERS WERE FRIENDLY. I WAS JUST ANOTHER HUMAN PASSING BY IN THE STREAM OF HUMANITY..
THERE IS A BOOK..... WORTH A READ.... A SYSTEM WHERE INDIVIDUAL MONITORING IS IMMEDIATE AND ACCURATE ..... TEH BOOKS WRITTEN BY A SCHOOLTEACHER... WITH HUMOR "THE HILLS IS LONELY" WHERE THE POSTAL HOURS ARE DICTATED BY THE TIDE CHART... OR WHEN THE COWS NEED MILKING. IT COULD BE DIFFERENT THERE TODAY,, I AM SURE THE POPULATION DENSITY HAS CHANGED ----- NOW THE STREAM IS FULL OF INDUSTRIAL PESTICIDES AND HAS BECOME A SWAMP OF TOO MUCH, TOO MANY., ..
----
SOME CONGRES IS DEBATING WHETHER TO SPEND MONEY ON CHANGING THE STREET SIGNS OR BUILD NEW CLASSROOMS ???? I DO WATCH A VARIETY OF TV SHOWS,,,, ALL POINT OUT THAT THE DENSITY OF POPULATION IS INVERSELY PROPORTIONAL TO THE DENSITY OF SKULLS.
THIS DENSITY OF POPULAGTION IS... I THINK,,,BEING ILLUSTRATD BY THE LACK OF LUMBERR AT THE LUMBER STORE... AND TEH FACTG THAT SMALL COZY HOMES WITH JUST A FEW ACRES ARE GOING FOR PRICES FAR ABOVE LIST PRICE.
NOW THAT I THINK ABOUT IT... I THINK I WILL CHECK TO SEE WHAT TEH REAL ESTATE MARKET FOR SMALL HOMES IS IN CANADA.. 2 YEARS AGO MY DOCTOR TOLD ME HE AND HIS WIFE HAD BOUGHT JUST THAT... IN CANADA. I WONDERED ABOUT THAT DECISION THEN.
I REALLY ADMIRE THAT NOW THat personal space is at a premium. .
I am happy to share SOME spACE OF crazy acres with volunteers who can help. WITH GRAss cutting .. dogs ... floweers,,, water... POO ....laundry.. rocks... or blocks.
i think the expression is " time for me to go play with my own mental blocks."
