Repercussions
In the 1970’s when Video Games were introduced into our communities, the premise was simple – Kill the Alien, anything that is a threat to us - shoot an alien, shoot an asteroid, shoot a Centipede. These games were in-offensive to most. The person who played these games were expediating their rate to achieve high scores. Today, most Video Games employ hand to hand combat, and other acts of violence. When Video Games first came out there were many arcades in Mega-Cities and the usual form of playing was done standing. Today most people play their Video Games from home-systems – usually played while sitting.
In the Tom Clancy novel ‘Games of State’, the concern that he had was that Video Games would be used as a weapon top disorient people into believing that ‘Blacks’ should be exterminated.
On the internet today, practically any and all Video Games can be uploaded and downloaded onto a persons’ hard-drive. This is different from twenty years ago when a person had to buy the software. Today, hard-drives are ports, communication devices (with internal tracking a.k.a G.P.S). Therefore, any electronic device or cable used in our modern day carries with it a built in limiter in the Hardware (now considered a port). This chip can be activated outside of the home (each hardware component exists within the mainframe – a software design. Modulation (or synthesis) is used as a measure of issuing commands or triggers. In a natural state these commands carry no meaning – in other words, passive resistance is a defence mechanism used to combat impulses.
Closed circuit television was employed as a premise to define each Nuclear Household with respect to our programming. In our modern day – since 1990 - we now see many 24/7 businesses. By this perspective the psychology of our time has changed, in relation to the 70’s and 80’s. When almost 100% of the population worked a conformed 9am-5pm position, people were on the same page. Since virtual reality Video Games were introduced and when the Telecommunications industry became much more de-regulated, peoples’ psychology changed. In this writers’ opinion, we’ve become de-sensitized, and we’re experiencing gross acts of violence in the Western World as a result. Once there is a removal of programs within an operating system, this form of sensory deprivation is essentially psychological warfare. A rational person that consciously experiences this becomes disoriented. This is Tom Clancy’s fear. At the point of being triggered, or, having information withheld, a person will naturally combat. To see things clearly is paramount. Once time and depth perception changes, this is a form of terror. A person will naturally deduce based on whatever stimulae their given (how a person feels) - kismet.

Community Centre Food Banks - by Moses
In the City of Toronto, the local Churches are being provided food by the private sector (second harvest, our daily bread, supermarkets, and large and small scale food food companies.
By observation, there are 'emergency services' allotted to people that are clientele of food banks, either because of income allowance or zoning issues. By nature a person in need of 'emergency' food is provided such. This is a mandate of the Church overseen by the City, in the name of donations.
On Thursday, October 15th I walked into a Community Centre food bank that was two blocks outside of their service zone. My friend and I were without food in the home. We waited roughly two hours for our numbers to be called, and once they did I was asked a series of questions. My identification was valid, and I told the people there that this food was for 'emergency' purposes. I told them that I'd been to their food bank once in the past and that although my home was two blocks outside of their zone, the food was for an emergency' purpose as there were no food banks in our zone open on this day. My friend and I were shunned, and when we asked to speak to a supervisor we were asked to wait as he was doing paperwork. After 25 minutes we asked to speak to him again, and we were told that he was now at lunch. I was vocal at this point, and was told by the staff that I could call the helpline, but there was nothing they could do. I demanded to speak to the supervisor.
The supervisor came out finally, and tried explaining that our home was outside of their zone. I told him that this was the only food bank near us that was open at this time. He told us he'd speak to us ion an office for privacy. In opening he said he'd make an exception and service us, as we'd been waiting for roughly two hours. I asked him why 'emergency' services weren't being honoured. He explained that we'd been at their food bank three times in total (between the two of us), and that it was an exception to the rule to process our request
The root issue here is very simple; Should a man with nothing to eat in his home (based on circumstance) walk into a food bank and request 'emergency' food, they are entitled to it. The staff has to be aware, by delegate, that this is an entitlement and not an exception.
Case in point - A man has no money, no food, and hasn't eaten in a day. He waits for his number to be called, and after two hours is told to call a helpline because the mans' home is two blocks outside of the zone of the centre. He gets home and the office number is closed. He goes to bed. He wakes up at 1:00am and suffers hunger pains. He goes to a 7/11 and tries to steal a sandwich (by necessity).
Is this man a criminal?

A True Warrior of God
Maj. Nidal turned out to be a true warrior of God. A true warrior's loyalty is to Islam and this loyalty overrides all other loyalties. His allegiance to the United States, his sworn oath as an officer of the US army to serve and protect his country means nothing when his soul is a risk for not being true to Muslim.
Apparently, yelling “Allahu Akbar” Nidal opened fire on unarmed soldiers at close range. He of course hoped to die as a martyr, and go to Paradise where he would be rewarded by receiving the gift of 72 virgins. But Nidal blew it off by not dying in his Jihadi attack. Now he will live to get American justice which will not be as pleasant.
