Kensington Market - 3PM-5PM Monday, June 22nd, 2009 – By Moses
3PM
- There were 4 people at a ‘circle’ and one other nearby neighbor.
- 1 Person has a bit of weed.
- The wrong person is tackled into submission with zero resistance (also known as Passive Resistance).
- The wrong person is set to be charged with the Trafficking of Narcotics
- He is searched and is NOT found in possession of any Narcotic
- 2 People from the circle stay behind (including this writer) after being told to leave as they make it known that they want their names on the report as ‘The man wasn’t doing anything wrong’ and ‘We’re just musicians’.
- A shop-owner at ‘Hotshot’ comes out for the 2nd time within 1 week of two separate ‘Black’ Males being tackled by the Police (3 times in two weeks), for the ‘possibility’ of Marijuana Possession (Both times the shop-owner saw that neither person was in possession).. Another shop-owner at ‘Aspetta’ saw the first event and called it ‘disgusting’.
4PM
- The shop-owner at ‘Hotshot’ asked for each of their badge numbers to include himself as a witness (as had the two ‘Brothers’), and finally after 1 Man is taken into 14 Division, the other ‘Black’ accused is let go. While waiting to put my name on the report it was explained to me how Bob Marley and Peter MacIntosh were bad. THIS IS NOT A WEED ISSUE.
- Abraham is now in Custody at 14 Division for Possession of Narcotics (Marijuana).
- In the last two months Kensington Market has had two separate incidence of ‘Stabbings’ and Belleview Park is currently under 24/7 surveillance. Peaceful demonstrations have been discouraged by the authorities and the local community is becoming anti-social by this behavior. My question is this; does a Parent want his child to be suspicious of others in a Public Park in Toronto, Ontario, Canada?

The Decriminalization of Marijuana - By Moses
The Decriminalization of Marijuana
Roughly 20 Million People in North America are regular Marijuana smokers. In our day we see Mega-Cities’ Court Houses clogged with simple possession of Marijuana charges. It has become a societal epidemic. To a person that carries in their belief that Marijuana is a ‘legal’ product this dichotomy is grossly offensive. At what point does authority become skewed, with respect to this issue?
For example; a man smokes a joint, works an eight hour day, five days a week. He does his job well and is conscientious. To what level of a microscope do we want to live? Are people to believe that Marijuana is the Devils’ drug? In our day there is somewhat of a breakdown in communication. Plainly put, we’re taught within the home what is acceptable, and then, taught what is acceptable outside the home. For an issue like Marijuana to be considered unequivocally illegal outside the home is essentially telling a person that they are an illegal quantity. This societal condemnation causes us to mistrust the system.
In 1976/77 the U.S President Jimmy Carter was pushing for the decriminalization of Marijuana. Congress at the time refuted, and this issue has been sidestepped (Albeit a brief interlude in 1996 within Canada).
Here’s the bottom line; dissecting a person on this issue brings countless, needless, and unjust measures. In other words, don’t judge a man for keeping his custom.
By decriminalizing the use of Marijuana, the Government would see Tax Dollars on the Manufacturing and Distribution of this product. The Government would also set a level playing field for the people. Caught smoking in Public and you’d be issued a ticket, as one currently is when in possession of alcohol in the Public domain (outside the home, or in the bar).
We, the Public, are in a crossroads today. A person believes what they believe, and, in the same breath told to lie about it. This element of fear is man-made and causes compounding issues. Let’s not forget that Prohibition of alcohol existed across the U.S.A in the Thirties, and that caused so much turmoil in that day that the policy had to be overturned.

North American Economics - By Moses
U.S.A Economy from a Canadian Perspective
Workforce – 100 Million People
Total Income @ $50,000/Person/Year Employed = $5 Trillion
Current System
The top 1% of all income earners’ in the U.S.A encompass roughly 1 million people of their population, and earn approximately $50,000,000 ($50 Million)/person/year on Average. The bottom 10% of all income earners’ encompass roughly 10 million people (NOT including people in jail and hard drug users – Cocaine and Heroine), and earn approximately $7,000/person/year.
Therefore; the total income of the top 1% income earners’ is roughly $50 Trillion
(1 million people X $50 Million), and, the total income of the bottom 10% income earners’ is roughly $70 Billion (10 million people X $7,000).
This means that there are 71,485 intervals of $70 Billion within $50 Trillion;
Therefore; to adjust the disparity in half, cut the top 1% income earners’ income to $25 Million/person/year, and quadruple the bottom 10% income earners’ income to $28,000/person/year. This would bring down the top 1% total income of 1 million people down to $25 Trillion, and bring up the bottom 10% income (Total Income) to $280 Billion. There would be a SURPLUS of 24.74 TRILLION U.S DOLLARS. In other words, there would be absolutely, unequivocally a ZERO U.S National Deficit.
Another dichotomy; a 4% tax on people earning $5 million+/year, means that on an average of $20 Million/Person/Year amongst 3,000,000 people (a rough estimate) would mean that $2.4 Trillion Dollars would materialize.
What we see World-wide is a completely different economic restructuring compared to the U.S. A Dollar (or any measurement of currency for that matter). The Dollar goes further. This is what we see in Southeast Asia and Northeast Africa; whereas $1 U.S is measured in a microscopic sense. For example, one could look at $1 U.S as being 100 U.S Cents. What tends to happen is that things get twisted and people are now looking at the currency exchange. 1/400th of 1/400th @ a rate of exchange in micro-pennies could theoretically provide 160,000 Pennies per $1 U.S. That is why we see people in Southeast Asia earning less than $1 U.S/Day.
Analysis
It seems to me that somewhere down the road there was a communication breakdown between responsible sensibilities that were in the U.S as recent as 1977. At that time in the U.S.A a person never really believed that they’d make Millions of Dollars. Maybe if they were lucky they’d win the lottery. They knew however, that they’d allows be able to achieve gainful employment. These days it almost seems that you’re screwed if you don’t earn at least $100,000/year. What is a Country that is poor to the point of mass starvation and plague supposed to think about us, the fortunate? Are we honestly supposed to tell them that it is because we were lucky enough to be born here? It DOESN’T hold water.

The Nuclear Family - By Moses
A Fifteen Person Nuclear Family versus a Four Person Nuclear Family
Principles
In Jamaica and the Middle East (including some parts of Africa) a 15 Person Nuclear Family is legal, while in Asia (East of India), it is not.
Contraceptives are illegal in roughly 1/3rd of the World. What this means is this; a man and his wife HAVE to have children in these parts of the World with ZERO choice.
Contraceptives are legal in roughly 2/3rd of the World and this promotes Freedom of choice with respect to having children.
Contraceptives are made mandatory in roughly 1/3rd of the World, to the point of being institutionalized within the home.
Some Countries discriminate within their own Country as to who are subsidized and who aren’t with respect to THEIR children. I.E – Israel, Sweden and Saudi Arabia.
Custom to having as many wives as you want carries limits and boundaries. I.E Bedouin in the Middle East region.
Repercussions
What happens to the children of a family of 15 should his/her parents die when they’re young?
What does a Man and his Wife do if they are only allowed to have one child by their Countries Sovereign Laws, when they feel condemned by this hypocrisy?
How many Martial Arts are in existence for this reason? (In other words, how many Do-Jos should Canada promote?)
Is a person required by Law to learn each of these arts? And, if so, who makes this distinction?
Analysis
Be fruitful and multiply DOES NOT mean to have 30 children. Nor does it mean added rights for Bedouin to have as many Wives as they’d like. Maybe we shouldn’t be so sensitive when it comes to the Bedouin of the Middle East and grant unlimited rights. What would be wrong with a Bedouin man having to account for a maximum 5 wives and a maximum 5 children from each wife? This would be an allowance of a maximum 25 children. Are we to honestly believe that this dichotomy isn’t offensive to a man in China? What this writer does not understand is this; a man that is ORDERED by their Countries Sovereign Laws to have only one child immigrates to Canada; Him, his wife and their one child live their life instilling the practice that they were ordered before they came to Canada. Their preconceived notions are adding a dichotomy to the microcosm that hadn’t been there before. Are we, as Canadians, to be stymied into triggered and rigid lives with ZERO headspace when it comes to the raising of our families? That is how many people in Mega Cities in North America feel with respect to living their lives.
