From a Disillusioned 99'er: "This nation has become evil to the core..."

A Disillusioned 99'er Shares His Disappointment With The American Dream, Welcomes Death
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 02/14/2011 14:09 -0500

<edit>

It is with a heavy heart that I have set my death in motion, but what I am facing is not living. So off I go, I have made peace with God and placed my burden on Jesus and He forgives me. This nation has become evil to the core, with cold-hearted politicians and tycoons squeezing what little Main Street Americans have left. It is not the America into which I was born -- the land of the free and the home of the brave with kind folks who help neighbors -- it is now land of the Tycoon-haves and the rest of us have-nots who march into hopelessness and despair.

Every unemployed person I have met over these past two years have been saintly. Sharing what little they have, and being charitable -- being kind and patient and supportive. Isn't it amazing that we Americans who suffer so much, have not taken to the streets in violence, riots or gotten out the guillotines and marched on tycoons and Washington in revolt as would happen in most other nations? But rather we plead with deaf politicians to please help us. We don't demand huge sums -- just 300 bucks a week, barely enough to cover housing for most. Most of all we say, please help us get a job, please allow us dignity.

I can't help but juxtapose our plight to the tycoons and politicians. They are never satisfied with their enormous wealth, and always want more millions no matter whom it hurts. They STEAL from pension funds, banks, the people and government, and little Wall Street investors. Then rather than face punishment, they become petty kings in this world. They are disloyal to America, unpatriotic, and serve their own foreign UN-American greedy causes and demand more and more and more. I feel that this is not the nation into which I was born. I was born in America, the land of the free and the home of the brave. America, where people give as much as they receive. America, where all people work for the common good, and try to leave a better and more prosperous nation for the next generation. America, where people help their neighbors and show charity and mercy. This new America is alien to me -- it is an America of greed and corruption and avarice and mean spirited selfishness and hatred of the common good -- it is an America of savage beasts roaring and tearing at the weak, and bullying the humble and peacemakers and poor and those without means to defend themselves. I am not welcome here anymore. I don't belong here anymore. It's as if some evil beast controls government, the economy, and our lives now.

I must go now, my home is someplace else. Goodbye and God bless you all. God bless the unemployed and poor and elderly and disabled. God bless America and the American people except the tycoons and politicians -- may God retain the sins of tycoons and politicians and phony preachers and send them to the Devil.

3. I feel like this is exactly what the GOP wants
 They want population control, and they want people to go quietly. Blogging is still relatively quiet. As long as no one will make them feel anything, they're not too worried about what effect their policies have on anyone.

This is exactly what Obama does with the RepubliCONS and banksters - pleads.

President Obama is merely imitating our example. We are our own leaders. Obama is NOT leading US, we are leading Obama. So far, we haven't been doing such a good job.

Maybe it's time we showed President Obama how to stand up to greedy, spoiled, crazy idiots.

Obama needs us to protest like Egyptians.

We need to show him how it's done. The longer Americans put up and shut up, the worse it's going to get and the more President Obama will give in to the fanatical right.

And on it goes...

Actually, suicides become very calm prior to acting. They do have to reach a point where they are "at peace" with their course of action.

This DUmbass notwithstanding, if you ever encounter a person with suicidal ideation they aren't dangerous when they emotionally bottom-out; they are too weak to act.

It is when they begin to improve that they actually gain the strength of resolve.

A calm suicidal person is the most dangerous.

Yikes, I had no clue.  Always assumed a person on the verge of suicide was running around screaming their head off, figuratively if not literally.

It is certainly the most cliche-riddled suicide note I've ever seen.  

This person has no idea how good he has it compared to most of the rest of the world.

Yikes, I had no clue.  Always assumed a person on the verge of suicide was running around screaming their head off, figuratively if not literally. 

Think of it as the 5 stages of death (albeit, self-imposed): Acceptance is the final stage. Also, care-givers, first-responders and those who desensitize are most vulnerable. Cops, hospice workers, preachers, firefighters, paramedics and (no bullshit) prostitutes are all more likely to become suicidal.

Suicides are not fun to deal with but I'd rather get to them before they act because they devastate those left behind. I've been privy to 2 successful suicides and 1 murder-suicide since the year's beginning. I talk to the chaplain's just to keep myself focused on helping those we can help.

It is amazing what they think is suffering. There was a time in my life when I was homeless and I slept under the staircase's of the finest hotels in town. I was never to hungry as I found a way to feed myself one way or the other. Yes I did shoplift some food on occasion and I once had my arm stuck in a vending machine! The one thing different I did was constantly look for work! Any kind of work. I finally got out of my predicament with a job recycling used bricks. I was hired to chip the mortar off used bricks and stack them on a pallet for a penny a brick! If you worked real hard you could make $35 a day and that was in the early 70's. Form there I blossomed into the hard working member of society I am today. So shut the F up and get a job you POS! Or better yet DIE!
"Liberalism is an essentially feminine, submissive world view. Perhaps a better adjective than feminine is infantile. It is the world view of men who do not have the moral toughness, the spiritual strength to stand up and do single combat with life, who cannot adjust to the reality that the world is not a huge, pink-and-blue, padded nursery in which the lions lie down with the lambs and everyone lives happily ever after."

A calm suicidal person is the most dangerous.

SSB is right about people who commit suicide before they act. Before it happens, they are usually full of energy and euphoric, not distraught.

Quote
Following are some of the possible warning signs that a person may be at risk for suicide:
Excessive sadness or moodiness — Long-lasting sadness and mood swings can be symptoms of depression, a major risk factor for suicide.
Sudden calmness — Suddenly becoming calm after a period of depression or moodiness can be a sign that the person has made a decision to end his or her life.
Withdrawal — Choosing to be alone and avoiding friends or social activities also are possible symptoms of depression. This includes the loss of interest or pleasure in activities the person previously enjoyed.
Changes in personality and/or appearance — A person who is considering suicide might exhibit a change in attitude or behavior, such as speaking or moving with unusual speed or slowness. In addition, the person might suddenly become less concerned about his or her personal appearance.
Dangerous or self-harmful behavior — Potentially dangerous behavior, such as reckless driving, engaging in unsafe sex, and increased use of drugs and/or alcohol might indicate that the person no longer values his or her life.
Recent trauma or life crisis — A major life crises might trigger a suicide attempt. Crises include the death of a loved one or pet, divorce or break-up of a relationship, diagnosis of a major illness, loss of a job, or serious financial problems.
Making preparations — Often, a person considering suicide will begin to put his or her personal business in order. This might include visiting friends and family members, giving away personal possessions, making a will, and cleaning up his or her room or home. Some people will write a note before committing suicide.
Threatening suicide — Not everyone who is considering suicide will say so, and not everyone who threatens suicide will follow through with it. However, every threat of suicide should be taken seriously.

 It is not the America into which I was born -- the land of the free and the home of the brave with kind folks who help neighbors .

One neighbor with nothing helped the other neighbor with nothing so they both profitted...you and your kind, on the other hand, sit on your ass and expect said neighbor to help you for nothing from you in return.

 We don't demand huge sums -- just 300 bucks a week,

Ain't much...but it has to come out of some one Else's pocket and now they're suffering too.....but then, that's what you wanted anyway.

 I was born in America, the land of the free and the home of the brave.

Still is the home of the free and the brave so what's your frenchy ass doing here?

This new America is alien to me -- it is an America of greed and corruption and avarice and mean spirited selfishness and hatred of the common good -- it is an America of savage beasts roaring and tearing at the weak, and bullying the humble and peacemakers 

Yep....Just about describes you liberals and what you're doing to America.

I am not welcome here anymore. I don't belong here anymore.

You got that right....move to France....or some other socialist European country.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948
