CORE Action Takes on the Action Sports Community


Grapevine, Texas (November 21, 2008)--CORE Action has entered full-steam into the action sports social culture. Having completed its beta-stage the CORE Action website has launched revealing its edgy, gritty look and first-rate content. At the heart of COREaction.com is the Nation, an action sports community that provides a forum for enthusiasts of all ages to communicate, share and express themselves through the sports they love.

CORE Action also provides its viewers with day-to-day coverage of what's happening in the action sports world--skateboarding, snow sports, surfing, motocross, BMX and water sports are all covered highlighting the best news, events, photos and videos from each discipline. CORE also informs and entertains users with in-house video coverage, featuring one-on-one interviews with top-pros, hot on the scene action from local and national events and short entertaining vignettes to get the adrenaline pumping.

While CORE reports on what's going on in the pro scene, our real ambition is to provide a forum for the young and up-and-coming athletes to get their story out and let themselves be known. Gone are the days of sending in "sponsor-me" tapes to companies in desperate and often futile attempts to get noticed. With CORE, the athlete can log-on to the Nation and post a bio, videos and photos in an effort to promote themselves within the community. CORE's main objective is to support the sport's underdogs and amateurs and to forge lasting partnerships within our member network as we grow into the future.

"Not only do we provide up-to-date original content, but we do it in a safe environment where kids are protected and can be among their peers." Kent Holcomb, President of CORE Action explains, "We closely follow the COPPA laws which protect underage kids from predators and mature content."

Nick Moscia CORE Action Marketing Director agrees, "We're all about reaching out to the action sports community. For us, it's about the kids. This is a place where they can hang out, chat with friends and check out the latest videos, news and events."

The CORE staff comes from within the action sports culture--skateboarding, snowboarding, surfing, BMX and motocross. From the slopes of the Rocky Mountains to waves of Cocoa Beach, Florida, the CORE crew are embedded in their prospective scenes. Preserving the culture and empowering riders to enjoy their sports and to reach full potential is our objective at CORE Action.


CORE Philosophy--Within every discipline of action sports lay a CORE group of people. They are the ones pushing the boundaries and limits on a daily basis. CORE riders raise the bar and create new standards for the rest to follow. They are the epicenter of the Industry and help keep our Culture alive and thriving. These devoted folks eat, drink and sleep the sport which they are true to and willingly make sacrifices to keep the ride going. Living a CORE lifestyle defines these individuals and establishes a place for them in this world...

CORE Action was founded in 2007 and is an internet-based action sports community which specializes in social networking and providing premium action sports related content. For more information go to www.COREaction.com.

My Blog: khbpoh
By: NickFerguson



I am taking the bait -
what do I have to lose right?



























Hope it works!



























Supposedly The Phone Will Ring
Right After You Do This.



























Just read the little stories and
think of a wish as you scroll all
the way to the bottom. There is
a message there - then make your
wish.
























No attachment on this one.



























Stories



























I'm 13 years old, and I wished
that my dad would come home from
the army, because he'd been having
problems with his heart and right
leg. It was 2:53 p.m . When I made
my wish. At 3:07 p.m. (14 minutes
later), the doorbell rang, and
there my Dad was, luggage and all!!









I'm Katie and I'm 20 and I've been
having trouble in my job and on the
verge of quitting. I made a simple
wish that my boss would get a new
job. That was at 1:35 and at 2:55
there was an announcement that he
was promoted and was leaving for
another city. Believe me...this
really works!!!















My name is Ann and I am 45 years
of age. I had always been single
and had been hoping to get into a
nice, loving relationship for many
years. While kind of daydreaming
(and right after receiving this email)
I wished that a quality person would
finally come into my life. That was at
9:10 AM on a Tuesday. At 9:55 AM
a FedEx delivery man came into my
office.He was cute, polite and
could not stop smiling at me. He
started coming back almost everyday
(even without packages) and asked me
out a week later. We married 6
months later and now have been
happily married for 2 years.



What a great email it was!!



























Just scroll down to the end, but
while you do, think of a wish.
Make your wish when you have completed
scrolling. Whatever age you are, is the
number of minutes it will take for your
wish to come true. ex.you are 25 years
old, it will take 25 minutes for your wish
to come true).



























However, if you don't send this to
people in 5 minutes, you will have bad
luck for years!!



Go for it!!!















SCROLL DOWN!!!!

will happen.



This is scary!



The phone will ring right after you repost as "Cell Phone Trick"

       In order to form a more perfect kiss, enable the mighty hug to promote
to whom we please but one kiss.

      
      
Article 1 : Statement of Love: The Kiss
      
1. Kiss on the hand.... I adore you
       2. Kiss on the cheek... I just want to be friends
       3. Kiss on the neck... I want you
       4. Kiss on the lips... I love you
       5. Kiss on the ears... I am just playing (i hate that)
       6. Kiss anywhere else ... lets not get carried away
       7. Look in your eyes ... kiss me
       8. Playing with your hair... I can't live without you
       9. Hand on your waist... I love you to much to let you go

      
      
Article 2: The Three Steps
      
1. Girls: If any guys gets fresh with you, slap him
       2. Guys: If any girl slaps you, her intentions are still good
 ! ;! ; ! !      3. Guy and Girls: Close your eyes when kissing, it is rude to stare

      
      
Article 3: The Commandments
      
1. Thou shall not squeeze to hard.
       2. Thou shall not ask for a kiss, just give one or take one.
       3. Thou shall kiss at every opportunity.
 
      
    Article 4: How to French Kiss
            Here's How:
  1. Set the scene. Make sure that the mood and time are right.
  2. Relax! Take a deep breath and let go of any tension in your neck and shoulders.
  3. Put your arms around the person you want to kiss.
  4. Start off with a normal kiss, not too firm, not too aggressive. Closing your eyes is optional.
  5. In mid kiss, gently open your mouth and softly nudge the other persons mouth open using your tongue.
  6. Again, not too aggressively, move your tongue inside the other persons mouth and playfully touch their tounge.
  7. Read the other persons body language, if they seem tense or start to pull away, stop what you are doing.
  8. If they open their mouth more or otherwise indicate they like the kiss, keep on doing what you have been only with a little more passion.
  9. As the kissing gets going saliva build up can be a problem, don't forget to swallow.
  10. Make sure you keep your tongues relaxed but your lips tight (saliva again), you don't want the kiss to turn messy.

Tips:
  1. Don't forget to breathe.
  2. Since French Kissing is "wetter" than other kinds of kissing it is a good idea to start with dry lips, don't lick them first.
  3. If one of you have braces you can still French Kiss, you just have to be more careful and not as forceful when things get passionate.
  4. If both of you wear braces you can still French Kiss, you just have to be very gentle and avoid touching teeth.
  5. French Kissing takes practice, but at least it is fun to practice this one!


 
       **Remember**
      
A peach is a peach
       A plum is a plum,
       A kiss isn't a kiss without some tongue
       so open up your mouth,
       close your eyes,
       and give your tongue some exercise!!!


      
      
      
WELL here's a few reasons why guys like girls...
   
1. They will always smell good even if its just shampoo
       2. The way their heads always find the right spot on our shoulder
       3. How cute they look when they sleep
       4. the ease in which they fit into our arms
       5. the way they kiss you and all of a sudden everything is right in the world
       6. How cute they are when they eat
       7. The way they take hours to get dressed but in the end makes it all worth while
       8. because they are always warm even when its minus 30 out side
       9. the way they look good no matter what they wear
       10. the way they fish for compliments even though you both know that you think she's the most beautiful thing on this earth
       11. How cute they are when they argue
       12. the way her hand always finds yours
       13. the way they smile
       14. the way you feel when you see their name on the call ID after you just had a big fight
       15. The way she says "lets not fight anymore" even though you know that an hour later you will be arguing about something
       16. the way they kiss when you do something nice for them
       17. The way they kiss you when you say "I love you'
       18. Actually ... ! ! ju! ! st the way they kiss you...
       19. the way they fall into your arms when they cry
       20. then the way they apologize for crying over something that silly
       21. The way they hit you and expect it to hurt
       22. Then the way they apologize when it does hurt . (even though we don't admit it)!
       23. the way they say "I miss you"
       24. the way you miss them
       25. the way their tears make you want to change the world so that it doesn't hurt her anymore.....Yet regardless if you love them, hate them, wish they would die or know that you would die without them ... it matters not.   Because once in your life, whatever they were to the world they become everything to you. When you look them in the eyes, traveling to the depths of their souls and you say a million things without trace of a sound,you know that your own life is inevitable consumed within the rhythmic beatings of her very heart.  We love them for a million reasons, No paper would do it justice. It is a thing not of the mind but of theheart.

i pick girls on the basis of these things:

positive attitude

being able to skate everything steps,half pipe,banks,ledges,rails and everything u see in vids! handrails are not mandatory and must be able to do demos and appearances when needed!

constant promotion is needed cause it brings u more product in the mail! it is a scratch my back i scratch ur's deal because being a sponsored skater is like having a job i am the employer and u are the employee and u do what is needed to make the company a success and then u reap the benefits such as more clothes a month and wheels and boards and bearings and get ppl to add us on myspace and visit our website and buy our products!

i also look for those who are constantly progressing which means learning new tricks on a constant basis! i dont "hire" just anybody cause then things would be a failure and id go out of business cause no one would be stoked on a company who has half ass skaters that cant do a ollie or something. at a demo ppl will talk and it will come back on me and i will lose money and u will lose product! this is a team effort! u make me look good and ill make u look good in magazines,ads, and stuff like that.


i dont care about what kind of music ppl listen to !


sponsor me vids help! pics are never allowed cause u cant tell style or if u landed a trick or not! video footage is the best way to go and it has to feature all the best stuff u can do like fliptricks down stairs,tech tricks on ledges, big airs on transition etc etc also include information about urself such as name and where u live and why u deserve the opportunity and any current sponsors u have (skate crews dont count)

DO NOT BE A SLACKER!!!!!!!

to sum it all up if u are doing what is being done in videos then u deserve a sponsorship!

1.what is the g.u.s.t.? the girls united skate team or g.u.s.t for short is the first and only female skateboarding company to ever hit maryland!

2. what is the g.u.s.t about? the g.u.s.t. is about bringing the female skateboarding scene together and closer and to spread the awareness that we are out there and we rule and we will not be taken lightly!

3. is this just a skate crew? no this is a full blown skateboard company!

4. do you have products?  we have a spring product line  with 2 shirt graphics and various colors to choose from with the price of $17.99 plus five dollars shipping anywhere in the united states! and we also have stickers that are 8.5 inches long and sell for $1.50 each!

5. how did you get involved in the female skate scene? this is a funny story...i was playing tony hawk's pro skater 1 and the first person i beat it with was elissa steamer and i got really stoked and that started to get me involved into female skateboarders and thus i been helping out the scene ever since and in '06 i decided that the female skateboarding scene needed a new real company that promotes their girl riders unlike other companies who do not promote their female riders...my work began in 01 when i started to help with xgirlsport.com(online female skateboarding zine that is now defunct) and after the owner moved to spain i was dissapointed cause i was really stoked and wanted to keep it going and i felt empty so i decided this should fill the void!

6. why distinguish female skaters as female skaters and not just skaters? good question! as i see no gender since i am a feminist i believe that girls in general do not get the credit they deserve and it is just the same as saying hey look at that purple smurf walking down the street. it is just a way to describe someone no disrespect intended it is just a adjective.

7.what does the girls united skate team co make? right now shirts which cost $17.99 with five dollars shipping and stickers that cost $1.50 SO BUY BUY BUY!

8.can i be sponsored by your company? u can but rather i let u on is a different story haha with this team even though it is based in dundalk,maryland i have riders from other states because i want to expand the movement to the four corners of the united states and inbetween i am ALWAYS on the look out for girls from maryland which is my main focus! i really want to build up a team of md girls which is hard to do since there are not many here that skate! but i do not have a problem with sponsoring ppl out of state.

9.how do i get sponsored? u can get on by making sure u are one of those skaters who are constantly pushing urself to the limits and progressing every single time u go out and having a positive attitude and no negativity,u must also be able to skate all terrain I DO NOT ACCEPT GIRLS WHO ONLY SKATE ONE THING! i demand that my riders be able to skate everything which means but not limited to ditches,rails,steps,ledges,mini ramp,banks,ski jumps,flat ground and so on! if u dont understand what i mean take a look at the skating of vanessa torres,elissa steamer,jamie reyes,lauren mollica,monica shaw etc etc AND I ALSO EXPECT FOR U TO REPRESENT AT CONTESTS,LOCAL SKATESPOTS,MYSPACE AND EVERYWHERE ELSE U GO the more u promote ur sponsor the better things will be for u product wise and the better the mood u put me in!.also a video of some sort helps as well! pics will not be good enough. i expect a classic sponsor me vid rather it be vhs or dvd i cant accept any other formats but those 2 and u must film once in awhile and take photos! traveling is not neccessary but it helps both me and u in the long run!

10. what do i get when im on? u get whatever we make! however dont expect to be getting 20 or 30 shirts a month cause that is just impossible cause i must also sell shirts as well so be thankful for what u get!

11. what is the policy with flowing riders? i dont believe in flow!

12. what can i do to help spread the word of the g.u.s.t. movement? u can spraypaint a logo somewhere,or use stickers,write the g.u.s.t. on ur board,word of mouth,use our banners which can be found on our website at gustmd.tripod.com there are plenty of choices for everyone we will also put ur support on our website! if u got it on ur board or spraypainted it somewhere or got stickers or wearing the shirts WE WANT TO SEE and they will be on our website at gustmd.tripod.com!

13.where are your products made? in the good ole u.s.a ON THE EAST COAST!!!. i dont outsource stuff like alot of skate companies cause outsourcing means stuff is made overseas and sent here and is lower quality (crap) (like shoes and pencils for example) i believe in keeping products american made and so does the i.a.s.c. which i strongly believe in!

14. i am a major skateboard company and am interested in carrying your product or sponsoring one of your riders! get at me and we will talk business!

15.will i be in videos and/or mags? there is nothing in this world but possibilities

16.why do u not accept add requests from guys,bands,or non full skate companies? because i talk to guys all day long and most of them i have on other accounts and girl skateboarders is my target audience and the market im into...and no i am not sexist or an a**hole this is not about bands it is about strict skateboarding and nothing more and nothing less! so only girl skateboarders and skate companies will be on here! i run a tight ship!

17. do you have any riders? yes we do! we have three 3 riders named "styles" from md,amelia from az and jasmine from md!

18.do i have to jump down 50 stairs or so to get on the team? no however if u want to see what kind of talent im looking for just look at the vvc vid getting nowhere faster or AKA: GIRL SKATER to get a good idea of what i want!

19. will the g.u.s.t. skate co ever make a video? haha well im not going to rule it out but there is sooooooooo much f*cking work to get a video made such as getting footage from riders,then editing (the worse part of all),and getting the dvds pressed and stuff so i dont know but it could happen in the future u will just have to wait it out and see! it would be rad though!

20. what is the story with boards and wheels etc? well boards are a good possibility i been recently looking at manufacturing companies of course before boards come out we would have to do some r&d with them before they get released to the public! and as for wheels i have recently (as of 8-14-07) checked into them  but im pretty f*cking picky about wheels so alot of r&d would go into them and i only get american made shi*t. pretty good chance that what u have under ur feet is chinese made and im not down for that lower quality bullshi*t!id rather spend alot of money on quality products then spend less money and have ppl come back to me and tell me my shi*t sucks! i want to do the best i can to provide the best quality stuff! it isnt easy having a skate company but u can probably expect wheels for all terrain! and will come in colors! expect to possibly see gust boards and wheels in our 2008 line! if u want to see a mock up of our boards and wheels check out our photo section in the first folder!

21. can i link your website/myspace on my site/myspace? duh of course u can! feel free to plaster that shi*t anywhere and everywhere! just let us know!

22. is there a set trick list to get sponsored? NO! just be a good well rounded skateboarder like u see in vids as i said before good transition skills (grinds to fakie,fliptricks to fakie,properly done grabs (no floating..good popped ollie grabs)and stalls like blunts and disasters and flip tricks to stalls and/or grinds,flip tricks and stuff down stairs (5 steps and above) and tech tricks on ledges,tricks on banks such as fliptricks to fakie and shi*t like that! i dont think i can be anymore obvious if u have watched any skate vids at all then u should know what a good skater is!

23. i live in so so and there arent really any comps here? ny,md,fla,ca,pa are the biggest places for comps u should go out and travel to contests cause it helps u get recongized and gets your's and our names out there and ppl will want to buy our shi*t if u do good!

24.where can i send my video? u can send your video to either our myspace inbox or to our office in maryland it is your choice!

25. i already have a certain sponsor (i.e. clothing,board,wheels,etc)? well this is kind of tricky regardless u will get our shirts and stickers but if u have a board sponsor or wheel sponsor then that means u wont get wheels or boards from us unless u quit ur current board/wheel sponsor! it is just the way things go! sorry....

26. is there a age limit to skate for the company? no!

19. will the g.u.s.t. skate co ever make a video? haha well im not going to rule it out but there is sooooooooo much f*cking work to get a video made such as getting footage from riders,then editing (the worse part of all),and getting the dvds pressed and stuff so i dont know but it could happen in the future u will just have to wait it out and see! it would be rad though!

20. what is the story with boards and wheels etc? well boards are a good possibility i been recently looking at manufacturing companies of course before boards come out we would have to do some r&d with them before they get released to the public! and as for wheels i have recently (as of 8-14-07) checked into them  but im pretty f*cking picky about wheels so alot of r&d would go into them and i only get american made shi*t. pretty good chance that what u have under ur feet is chinese made and im not down for that lower quality bullshi*t!id rather spend alot of money on quality products then spend less money and have ppl come back to me and tell me my shi*t sucks! i want to do the best i can to provide the best quality stuff! it isnt easy having a skate company but u can probably expect wheels for all terrain! and will come in colors! expect to possibly see gust boards and wheels in our 2008 line! if u want to see a mock up of our boards and wheels check out our photo section in the first folder!

....FOR FREEDOM!!!

 

 “In a time of deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act. –George Orwell

 

The year is 1913, Woodrow Wilson is president, and powerful banking interests, who have been trying for year, finally achieved their long term goal, of silently taking control of the American government.

     The first thing the did to accomplish their take over was convince secretary of state, Flan Denox, to lie to the American people, and tell them that the 16th amendment [Income Tax Amendment] had been legally ratified by the states when it was not. The bankers knew that this tax would ultimately end up in their pockets.

     Because of this fraud the American people were led to believe there was a tax on their labor. Congress and the President ARE completely aware of this fraud and it was cited in a recent court case:

 

“If you… examined [the 16th amendment] carefully, you would find that a sufficient number of states ratified that amendment.” -U.S. District Court Judge, James C. Fox, 2003

 

That very same year [1913] the bankers committed their second, and by far most diabolical fraud ever perpetrated on the American people, by bribing senators to pass the Federal Reserve Act, without the required Constitutional amendment. They did this during Christmas vacation, when many senators where home celebrating Christmas with their families.

     And that is how the unconstitutional Federal Reserve Act came into being. They were very clever, and understood that who ever issued the money for America controlled the government.

 

“Give me control of a nations money supply, and I care not who makes its laws.” -Mayer Rothschild, Private Banker

 

President Wilson, who signed the Federal Reserve Act later said in regret:

“I’m a most unhappy man; I have unwittingly ruined my country a great industrial nation is now controlled by a system of credit. We are no longer a government by free opinion, no longer a government by conviction and the vote of the majority, but a government by the opinions and duress of a small group of dominant men.” -Woodrow Wilson, 1919

 

How did America transform from being a truly free country with a servant government where our individual rights are protected by our Constitution, to being a country that talked about being free but really wasn’t?

     The change started when the Federal Reserve came into existence, and America adopted one of the major planks of the Communist Manifesto by creating for America this central bank.

     The very same people that back the Federal Reserve System also back the graduated income tax, a second plank from the Communist Manifesto.

     And now our Congress so dominated by the banks, is helping them entrap people even further by passing new Bankruptcy Laws making it more difficult for the people to declare bankruptcy and get a fresh start.

 

“Who controls money controls the world.” -Henry Kissinger, Council of Foreign Relations

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

*President Bush has signed executive orders give him sole authority to impose martial law and suspending Habeas Corpus. This gives him dictatorial power over the people without any checks or balances.

 

*The government can jail you for life without charges, without trial, and without a lawyer.

 

*Because of globalization the U.S. must accept other nations’ laws. Under the CAFTA treaty the sale of vitamins and supplements will be illegal.

 

*Executive Order# 10999: Allows the government to take over all modes of transportation.

 

*Executive Order# 11000: Allows the government to mobilize civilians into work brigades under government supervision.

 

* Executive Order# 11921: Provides that the president can declare a state of emergency that is not defined and Congress cannot review the action for six months.

 

*Senate Bill# 1873: Allows the government to vaccinate you with untested vaccines against your will.

 

*The FDA says: Americans do not have a right to know which foods are genetically modified.

 

*Congressman Sensenbrenner’s Bill (HR1528): Requires you to spy on you neighbors including wearing a wire. Refusal would be punishable by a mandatory prison sentence of at least two years.

 

*The government claims the power to seize all financial interments: gold, silver, and everything else if they deem an emergence exists. –treasury department letter, Aug. 12, 2005

 

*There are 190 countries in the world; American has bases in 130 them.

 

The Patriot Act permits:

*Secret FBI and police searches of your home and office.

*Secret government wiretaps on you phone, computer and/or internet activity.

*Secret investigations of your bank record, credit cards and other financial records.

*Secret investigations of your library and book activities.

*Secret examinations of your metical, travel and business records.

*The freezing of funds and assets without prior notice or appeal.

*The creation of secret watch lists that ban those named from air and other travel.

 

“The Constitution is just a goddamn piece of paper.” -George W. Bush, Nov. 2005, Capitol Hill Blue

 

During the 1990’s President Clinton monitored millions of private phone calls placed by U.S. citizens. He did this under a secret program code named: Echelon. The wide spread use of wire tapping Americans during the Clinton administration proves that this practice was not started because of 9/11 but is standard procedure.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

The new legislation for the national ID card is in and takes three to for pages to describe. It will be connected to our driver’s licenses and Social security numbers. A physical ID such as finger prints or retinal print will be on it.

This law known as the Real ID Act takes effect in May 2008. Anyone with out a card will not be permitted to board an air plain, Amtrak train, open a bank account, or enter a federal building.

The bill mandates that all drivers’ licenses contain “common readable technology. A radio frequency identification (RFID) chip will be used.

 

 

“It is time to wake up America. Those ID cards are NOT about defeating terrorism, they are all about controlling the American people.” -Aaron Russo

 

The latest technology for identifying people when they make purchases is the implantable chip that can be directly imbedded into human flesh. Its tiny glass capsule is about the size if a grain if rice. It contains an RFID computer chip with a coiled antenna.

Homeland Security, the Department of Defense, and others have expressed great interest in being able to more closely monitor the American people. And one way to do that would be to determine who buys what and where they take these things.

     Radio frequency can travel through walls, wood, the things we normally rely on to protect our privacy. For example your backpack, your pocket, anything you’re wearing or carrying.

     They were talking about having reader devices in every airport, on every bus, every train, on every port and every dock.

     One of the most worrisome applications of RFID is proposals to put in cash. Meaning that you’d be able to track every bank note, where it has been, who it has been issued to, and create an essence an audit trail that would essentially take away the anonymity of cash, that we enjoy today.

     The ATM machine itself, as the money came through the roller device, would be reading each number. And it would know who you are; of course you identify yourself at banks or ATMs. And the ATM would tag the number, and transfer the possession name from, say Bank of America to Joe Jones.

     Once every thing you do is tied down to a single number, and there is no longer the option to pay with cash, then all it takes to render you a non citizen is to simply turn you chip off. Then you won’t be able to participate in ant function in society, including buy food.  

     Through the implementation of the Federal Reserve System, the American citizen has gone from being a private individual who had real money, and gold in possession that was private, to a citizen who has no privacy because all money is now being digitized. They can deduct however amount of money they want out of your digits when ever they want, and they can trace you when ever they want. You’ll be at there mercy. God forbid we allow this to happen in America

    

“This is outrageous! I mean your talking about the government looking over your shoulder at absolutely everything you do, every purchase you make, every place you go, every company you interact with, would be recorded back to potentially the government.” -Katherine Albrecht, author of “Spy Chips”

 

Have we become so controlled and ignorant about our rights, that big institution and big governments can do whatever they want with us even with out our approval?

I know for certain that our founding fathers would resist to the death what is happening in America today. And I for one will not accept a national ID card. And if nobody accepts a national ID card, and nobody can board a plain without one, then let the airlines go bankrupt. And if you can’t open an account in a big national bank, then open one in a small local bank. And if we can’t walk into a federal building, I’d personally consider that a blessing.

Don’t allow these institutions to dictate to us how we conduct our lives. This is America, and we have free choice! We the people have the power not the government. The government gets its power from us, not the other way around.

Think of all the men and women that died in all our wars fighting for freedom, not Federal Reserve bankers. Do you think they sacrificed their lives so America could get chipped like a dog, so we can all have homing devices inside us? NO! This ID card is the last step before they implant us, and that is precisely the reason no one should accept one.

And you know what they’re going to do? They’re going to call in the propaganda machine, the media, and try to sell this RFID chip as if it was in everybody’s best interest.

 

“We shall have a world government whether or not we like it. The only question is whether the world government will be achieved by conquest or consent.” -Paul Warburg, architect of the Federal Reserve System, 1950

 

The central bankers of the world are working together to create a one world government. A global police sinister was the only thing George Orwell ever wrote about. Where every person on the planet Earth will have an RFID chip implant, where the bankers and the governments have access to every transaction you make.

A chip in every in everybody would be the universal monitory system, because there would be no escape from it.

Most people don’t have a clue that these unelected private bankers, actually control the governments of the world. They have actually financed and profited from ever war since World War I, without concern for humanity. The war in Iraq is an attempt by the Federal Reserve and their partner the Bank of England to control the middle east, and make it part of the new world order.

 

“Military men are just dumb stupid animals, to be used as pawn in foreign policies.” -Henry Kissinger

 

     The war on terrorism is the war on your freedom.

 

“The bankers own take it away from them but leave them the power to create money, and with the flick of the pen they will create enough money to buy it back again. However, take away the power to create money, and all great fortunes like mine will disappear and ought to disappear, for this would be a happier and better world to live in.

But if you wish to remain slaves of the bankers and pay the cost of your own slavery, let them continue to create money.” - Sir Josiah Stamp, former director of the Bank of England

 

“We are grateful to the Washington Post, the New York Times, Time Magazine, and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost 40 years.

     It would have been impossible for us to develop our plans for the world if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years. But now the world is more sophisticated and prepared to march toward a world government. The supra national sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national auto determination, practiced in past centuries.” 

-David Rockefeller, private banker, council on foreign relations, June 1991

 

“The real rulers in Washington are invisible and exercise power from behind the scenes.” -Felix Frankfuter, U.S. Supreme Court Justice

 

“It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning.” -Henry Ford

 

     Now that you do understand what happened in 1913, and how it is leading to world government, the future depends on you. Will you choose freedom or slavery? Stop living in fear of your government. Government is the servant. We are the masters.

So what are you going to do about it? Join together in civil disobedience. Be willing to take part in nationwide strikes, boycotts, and marches on Washington. Force Congress to use their power to shut down the Federal Reserve. Government has authority to issue money, without paying interest to the bankers. This will take away the power to control our government from the bankers. Only vote for candidates who have signed an affidavit to shut down the Federal Reserve System and stop world government.

If you are in the military or law enforcement, remember you swore an oath to defend the American Constitution. You didn’t swear an oath to promote world government. Honor your Oath.

DONOT accept the national ID card, even if it’s your drivers’ license. We must demand that the American peoples gold be audited, and make certain that it has not been stolen. This asset must be returned to the American people.

Abolish computer voting in the state where you live. Stop being a good Democrat, stop being a good Republican, start being good Americans.

And when the media starts telling you that the country will fall apart if this is done, don’t be fooled. This is just the Federal Reserve trying to save itself. Squash it!

 

“I like the old idea, where you could do what you thought you could do and what you wanted to do as long as you didn’t hurt anyone.”

 -Ron Paul

 

If you believe in civil disobedience and wish to organize with millions of Americans in this battle for liberty, please sign up at freedomtofascism.com, and if you choose not to help, report to Central Services immediately and we will have you fitted for an RFID chip… for you own safety, of course.

 

”We must all hang together, or assuredly we shall all hang separately.”
-Benjamin Franklin, at the signing of the Declaration of
Independence, July 4, 1776

 Uninted we stand, Divided we fall.
