There is a much bigger problem on the horizon.

A few weeks ago there was a 6.5 earthquake in Nevada (click here). It was kind of rare for Nevada and usually, the North American Craton normally has quakes, but, they are primarily minor but deep in the Earth. However, this was unusual.

Naturally, the first thing that came to mind was the Yellowstone Caldera. I examined maps of major fissures and fault lines in the USA and didn't really think it would go beyond some aftershocks and dismissed the idea. In the back of my mind is the reality of the movement of the Hawaiian hotspot and the high level of activity in the ring of fire in the Pacific. It has been very active. But, that is the Pacific Plate and the North American plate is huge and really isn't affected that much by the Pacific Plate.

Then this happened.

Earthquake swarms, geyser eruptions and ground uplift: (click here) Large volcanic areas like the Yellowstone caldera in US-state Wyoming are showing their dynamic processes in different ways. However, sometimes this normal background activity is said to be more dramatic.

You are probably here and reading this text because you think something unusual is going with the world's most famous apocalypse volcano. Maybe because you have seen some activity that you can't explain immediately. But more likely because you came across a newspaper article or a YouTube video that tells you some strange things are happening and you decided to google for further information. If this is the case, please take 3 or 4 minutes to read the following article.

Right at the beginning: I am "sorry" to disappoint you but this article won't tell you that the world is going to end. I would like to talk about news agencies, bloggers, YouTubers and other parts of the internet community who earn money with other people's fear.

And apologizes to everyone for the irritating headline but this is the only way to get the attention of people who are addressed here....

Now, for the most part, when Yellowstone rumbles it is normal and benign. What bothers me this time is that three weeks ago there was a major earthquake in Nevada. I think the park should be closed until this activity settles down and we know this is nothing more than benign activity. Give it a month or so and then let the Park Rangers and scientists decide about what is going on with Yellowstone.

I think this time it is important to be prudent. Besides, there is the virus and parks should be closed for a little while longer anyway. I think media services should want to pay attention to this even if just for fun. I wouldn't ignore it as nothing.

The last time “little green men” showed in the world that it made global news it was when Russia invaded Crimea and Victor left the country. I demand a thorough investigation to whom these military men were.

One other thing, if police budgets are cut take the meter readers off the payroll and put the cops back on the local tasks of the city. There simply aren’t that many terrorists in average neighborhoods.

The only responsible legislators in DC is the US House. I would expect it to take up both investigations as soon as is possible.

Forget about any responsible activity from the US Senate, they are far too busy using the federal government to look for the boogie man in the Russia investigation.

The plot by the Republicans is to create a deep state scenario, declare the government invalid, declare a Police State, and cancel the elections in November as they don't know how deep the deep state actually exists. The USA will then have its first king. That is exactly what is going on between Barr, Trump, and Graham. They will hold power as it is now with very little help in the structure of the federal government to run the country and the USA will fall into chaos and third world economics no different than the two-class systems of countries where strong men are at the top of the government. Trump accepts this advice and institutes it from people like Putin that want to destroy the United States of America.

The current Ukraine’s prosecutor found NO evidence of Hunter Biden wrongdoing. That is amazing considering how Giuliani did his level best to create the opposite scenario even after removing the ambassador. 

The Bidens are innocent of wrongdoing!

END OF DISCUSSION!

That is an amazing reality. Joe Biden has been serving people in government for decades. Never was he ever interested in self- serving corruption. I have followed Joe Biden casually over the years because he believes in the Middle Class and the unions that make it possible. He is a really cool guy. He really loves the people. It shows. I don’t know if anyone noticed but his speech was made without notes or a teleprompter. It was all Joe. 

General Allen stated the USA was sliding into liberalism? Fighting racism and police brutality is liberalism? You have got to be joking.  What next?

The virus was thrust onto the country without warning. Countering the spread of the virus is not liberalism it is however survival. The virus has killed more Americans than any war the Pentagon carried out. Amazing how some people will use any aspect of an emergency for politics. 

Perhaps General Allen might take notice of the number of emergencies in the country and realize how inept Trump is. Simply keeping the USA sovereign within its borders and true to the USA Constitution is enough to keep most if not all Americans busy these days. I suppose the tenacity of every American in response to every emergency is liberalism too.

General Allen needs to put the responsibility for a country full of despair and mayhem where it belongs, in the White House bunker! I am sure it’s warehouses of national stockpile are full.

George Floyd will have two more services to accommodate his exceptional family.

This is how large extended families feel about each other. I listened to the brothers and cousins speak about their fondness for George Floyd. I have heard those stories before, but, the storyteller was a generation earlier than these storytellers. My family's stories of poverty ended a full generation ahead of those with this large African American family.  Reverend Al is right. Now is the time to end this inequality and end police brutality.

My mother and father grew up in poverty in a coal mining town. When my mother married, my father went to work in a factory after serving four years in the US Air Force, they were entering the Middle Class of the USA. Between the two of them, they moved into the Middle Class and educated their children. Poverty ended in my Father and Mother's life by the ages of 20. They would purchase a home about ten years later. Our family has never returned to those hard times. The Floyd family was still struggling with poverty and they are younger than me. My mother is 85 years old now. She remembers those hard days as a girl and a young woman, but, she hasn't experienced that for 65 years of her life.

Racism still continues and it has to stop. Bigotry, racism and prejudice needs to stop now. 

Police no longer have to be trained in Erik Prince Training Camps. (click here) It is time to end the escalation of the militarization of our homeland police. What was witnessed with the police that killed George Floyd, was training in the arts of suppressing the suspect. They are not normal techniques and methods for American homeland police. That knowledge of putting pressure on the neck in the right amounts to kill is LEARNED. Knowledge of anatomy was never part of the average police training, but, it is today.

If any police union is going to justify enormous force in day to day policing then they are as much the problem. I remember when Eric Garner was killed by police, the police union was identified as part of the problem and not the solution. 

The country has become occupied by a police force that focuses on suppression of will and life as part of their training. We witnessed that this time as well, especially in the brutality of Washington, DC.

There are no terrorists that run in the park every morning or walk their dog every evening or conduct bird watching. There is no need nor has there been any need for a militarized police force in the USA. September 11, 2001 occurred once on USA soil. The police being trained to handle terrorists at every turn is the wrong approach for the police that patrol our neighborhoods and Main Street. The people need to take back their country from fear and the imposition of wrongful deaths justified by police work.

Any technique that uses the neck by police to capture a suspect must be ended. No police union should stand in the way of ending those police methods, policies, and practices that involve restraint with a person's neck. Those days are over.

May George Floyd rest in peace and his family find solace in these difficult days.
