The Truth
It has been more than one year since my last post. Time flies when you're a young professional scared of posting opinions on the internet...albeit I've never been one to dispute the fact that my writing is riddled with hypocrisy (and all it took was a paycheck to prove it to myself!). Here goes nothing:
Like most everyone in America I have been glued to my television set watching the pursuit of the Boston Marathon Bomber. It was surprisingly exhilarating to watch a city and nation come together and triumph under such trying circumstances. Anyone willing to unapologetically take life from an innocent 8 year old child should be tortured mercilessly. And I mean brutally tortured. Like fingernails removed one at a time and shoved sharp-end-first-super-aggressively into the retinas tortured. You fucking cowards. Major credit to all law enforcement in apprehending the suspect in such a timely fashion.
Thats is as mushy as I will get, I promise.
Let's be honest...as much as I sincerely wanted to get swept away by the feel-good story of America coming together to achieve greatness, the skeptic in me was just waiting to surface. And surface did it ever. Fuck the media.
There is so much inherently wrong with media coverage it makes my head spin. And it's like no one even sees it. Did you see one video or even a picture of: the robbery at 7-Eleven, the MIT police officer, the supposed home-made explosive devices thrown out of a moving car at law enforcement, either of the shoot-outs, the subject in the boat, or like anything that actually happened. For real? I am god-damn positive that the 7-Eleven has security cameras. And don't all law enforcement cars have dash cameras? What the fuck? We weren't shown anything that is being portrayed as "truth". Not one thing.
Osama was shot and killed and dumped at sea...but there are no videos and no pictures to prove it...in the 21st century. Fucking really? I have videos of my dog taking a shit. My dog squats, I struggle to get my phone out of my pocket, I switch the camera view from selfie shot to normal shot, record the poo, upload the video to twitter and then text it to my friends. But you're telling me that a dozen soldiers air-raid Osama's hideout, shoot and kill him, then who knows how many people/soldiers/media see the body before it is supposedly dumped at sea. And not one picture of a dead Osama Bin Laden? Breaking news: "Osama's dead, go America! And Kim Kardashian is dating Kanye West, can you believe it?! Don't focus!"
Flashback like 2 months ago. More real life action drama: Christopher Dorner, former navy seal and LAPD officer is fleeing from law enforcement. Excitement. Action. Helicopters. Dorner is in this house, surrounded by agents. This just in: "Law enforcement has asked our media helicopters to stay clear...yada yada yada...safety...yada.." WAIT. WHAT!? I'm no fucking genius but you just ZOOMED THE FUCK OUT. Your helicopters weren't any further away or closer to the scene than like two seconds ago! Go back to that shot! "Oh my god! The house exploded and Dorner is dead but his wallet survived the fire so we can confirm its him! Go America! And Kim Karashian is pregnant!"
Are you serious? Is this real life? I get this weird feeling in my gut when stuff like this happens. Don't piss on me and tell me it's raining for fucks sake, I want the truth. What are you hiding? Who are you? I want the truth. I need the truth. We NEED the truth. We have the technology and man power for the truth yet we are constantly deprived of it. Why? Fucking why?
Call me a conspiracist or call me bat-shit insane but the mainstream media is hiding the truth. Someone or something is sabotaging what you and I see as true. And that is more terrifying than any bomb because it is a direct attack on every single one of us.
